Kal Penn Hired By President Barack Obama




House star Kal Penn has found himself a new gig in politics. No, West Wing isn't coming back on the air. Rather, the House star has been hired to act as spokesperson for the White House for the Asian-American and Pacific Islander communities.

Best known for his starring role in the Harold and Kumar films, the 31-year-old actor is now taking on the job of associate director in the Office of Public Liaison.

A start date has yet to be set for Penn, but if you watched last night's episode of House, you probably know he's going to have plenty of time on his hands for now.

Michelle Obama Touches The Queen Of England, Causing War




There's a question of whether or not First Lady Michelle Obama breached protocol when meeting the Queen of England for the first time. Accompanying her husband President Barack Obama on his visit to meet Great Britain's royalty, Michelle put her hand on Her Majesty's back.

Granted, this might not seem like that big of a deal, but you have to keep in mind that this is a British person. And to them, this is equivalent of Michelle jamming her tongue down her throat.

And if I'm understanding this video clip correctly (which I'm sure I am), Michelle's faux pas subsequently incited riots throughout all of England.

Check out the video of the incident by clicking the continue reading below.

President Barack Obama's Interview With Jay Leno




Late yesterday afternoon, I got excited instant messages from my friends in Burbank, informing me that they watched President Barack Obama's helicopter take off from the roof of the NBC building to film his interview with Jay Leno. Whoah.



While Barack was clearly prepared to trade jokes with the talk show host teasing that Washington D.C. "is a little bit like American Idol, except everybody's Simon Cowell."

True to form, critics have questioned Obama's choice to take time out of his hectic work schedule to fit in a chat with Jay Leno, especially in the midst of the country's economic crisis. "Didn't you just say you were TOO BUSY to do an talk show interview?" While Obama argues that he's able to multitask, we all know where the grumbling started. I'm not going to openly suggest anything, suffice to say their name probably rhymes with "Snowprah."

George Clooney's Date Oscar Night: President Barack Obama




Usually, George Clooney is a regular on the Academy Awards red carpet. But this year, he was noticeably absent from the weekend's festivities. Of course, the journalistic-minded actor and director had a good excuse: He was just chilling with President Barack Obama.

On his CNN's Larry King Live interview on Monday, Clooney revealed that he'd spent Sunday evening meeting with Obama discussing the humanitarian crisis in Darfur. Clooney suggests that the United States do "what we do best, what we have done best since the start of this country, which is good, robust diplomacy all across the world."

Yum. "Good, Robust Diplomacy" sounds like a flavor of Starbucks coffee.

Michelle Obama Is A Vogue Cover Girl




Wearing a magenta silk dress, Michelle Obama posed for the cover of iconic fashion magazine Vogue. Jason Wu designed the frock worn by President Barack Obama's wife in the photo shoot, as well as the white gown she wore at the inaugural balls.

This cover is the second time a First Lady has been featured on the cover, the last time was Hillary Clinton in 1998.

But it's not all glitz and glamor for Michelle, who recently visited Mary's Center, a non-profit organization helping people with restricted health care. But, it's really hard not to look good when you're being hugged by a bunch of cute kids.

Etta James Is A Comedian, Eating Her Words



Etta James now says the whole Obama-has-big-ears-and-Beyoncé-is-gonna-get-an-ass- whupping tirade, was just a silly, harmless joke.

"I didn't really mean anything," she told the New York Daily News. "Even as a little child, I've always had that comedian kind of attitude. ... That's probably what went into it."

That's probably what went into it? Be honest, Etta. How do you really feel about Beyon-whatever-her-name-is, singing "At Last" your signature song?

"James said she was "feeling left out of something that was basically mine, that I had done every time you look around." She said she liked Beyoncé's performance, but when asked if she thought she could have done better, James answered, "I think so. That's a shame to say that."

There's no shame in that, Etta! Oh, hell no! Fifteen pounds and a blond wig doesn't make some diva-in-training your replacement.

 And bravo for attempting to make a funny about the president. Even Chris Rock said that was impossible.

Etta James Isn't A Beyonce Fan



"At Last" singer Etta James seemed pleased with the performance Beyonce Knowles delivered in Cadillac Records, that is, until she took to the stage at a concert in Seattle not that long ago. YB&F reported that Ms. James was none too pleased with Beyonce's rendition of her signature song for Michelle and Barack Obama's first dance as President and First Lady.

You guys know your president, right? You know, the one with the big ears? Yeah, wait a minute, he ain't my president. He might be yours. He ain't my president. But I tell you, that woman he had singing for him, singing my song, she's gonna get her ass whooped.

Here's the full audio clip of her on-stage rant. Apparently, it's all fun and games with Etta until you get the president involved.

Alan Cumming Thinks Obama Has A Big You Know What



Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you Alan Cumming. But it's your fault our legs are burning from an entire cup of spit-out coffee.

Alan decided to give a party reporter from New York magazine a really classy quote incorporating  politics, current events, anatomy and science at Russell James' Portrait Book Release Party on Wednesday night in New York City.

"I'd like to see Obama naked, I think great leaders, charismatic leaders and men who are so confident and who have achieved so much, usually have big penises. I think there's a correlation between the level of confidence, the level of the way a man can hold a room and the way he conducts himself in life, with his penis size -- with his comfort with his penis size."

He goes on to compliment how "elegant" and "confident" our president is, but alas, Alan has an insider source to his theory.

"Also someone told me that they worked out with him in a gym in Chicago, and it was big."
