While You Were Sleeping, Tina Fey Got A New TV Show And It Sounds Incredible
Finally, we can all stop crying during 30 Rock re-runs. Also, Bieber defended Chris Brown, Bowie's new video cost $13, and more.
Tina Fey is coming back to television, the world is already a better place
Perhaps still reeling from the dismal ratings of their current comedy lineup, US network NBC has re-inserted its brains, ordering 13-episodes of a new show from Tina Fey and her 30 Rock co-creator, Robert Carlock. According to reports, it’s set to star The Office‘s Ellie Kemper as a woman who moves to New York after escaping from a doomsday cult, which is probably the greatest comedy premise since Trading Places.
The series, which is due to debut midway through next year, is still untitled, so let’s just call it ‘Finally, I Can Stop Crying Like A Baby During Late Night Re-Runs Of 30 Rock‘. That’s got ‘hit show’ written all over it.

Justin Bieber defended Chris Brown via the medium of graffiti
Post-Puberty Biebs took some time away from giving internet shout-outs to Australian reality TV contestants yesterday to hit the streets of Colombia’s capital Bogota for a bit of art therapy. Unfortunately, it all involved messages of support for perennial douchebag, Chris Brown (who entered rehab yesterday following his arrest for punching a fan in the face).
“Free Breezy”, tagged Bieber all over the streets of Bogota, which I initially thought was about the fresh sensation that comes with not wearing underpants under your baggy poopy-pants, but is actually just Chris Brown’s nickname. He also tagged some other walls with pictures of Canadian weed, a tribute to his dead frog ‘Pac, and the words “Street Art“, which I guess is better than just writing “wall” or “paint”.

David Bowie’s new music video cost him $13 to make, will give you nightmares
David Bowie has a new music video! It’s for the newly-released James Murphy remix of ‘Love Is Lost’, a song from his last album, The New Day, which is soon to get the deluxe box set treatment.
The whole thing was shot for $13 in Bowie’s New York office using puppets from his own collection. Yes, David Bowie has a puppet collection, and it is awesome.

One of these people won Halloween with their costumes, we just can’t decide who…
Was it Ellen dressed up as Nicki Minaj?
Miley Cyrus dressed up as Lil’ Kim?
Or Patrick Stewart dressed up as a lobster?
You decide! Or don’t, I don’t really give a shit.
