Black, white, and everything in-between, who doesn't love Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder's colorblind collaboration "Ebony and Ivory"? Hooray for integration! |

We dedicate this - Stevie Wonder's "My Cherie Amour" - to Lauren Williams of Stereohyped. Why? Because she asked us to post it. We're a sucker for a pretty woman - not literally, of course. Give "For Once In My Life" a listen, after the jump… |

We're total fans of "Celebrity X falls" videos and usually use the occasion to poke a little fun. Not so with this footage of Stevie Wonder falling during an "estrogen-soaked" Barack Obama rally this weekend - and taking Michelle Obama with him! The couple play it off like nothing happened. This footage only makes us love Wonder even more. Isn't he lovely?! |

Clinton also gave Edwards some love, but made sure to extend an olive branch to Obama, as well. The debate turned out to be less bickering and more mutual masturbation as the candidates took a unified front. "As we move forward in this debate," said Obama, "Understand we are both Democrats and we understand the issues at stake. We want change from George Bush." Clinton echoed Obama's comments, but with a bit more self-awareness than the younger politico, "I think we as Democrats have to be willing to fight for universal health care." Iraq proved to be the only place the candidates showed real difference as Clinton again defended her vote to go to war. Regardless of this bellicose difference, Obama and Clinton sure did make a great show of it, which inevitably led to the trouble-making Wolf Blitzer (who, we feel, picked on Hillary unnecessarily) to inquire: The more I speak to Democrats out there — not only the Democrats here at the Kodak Theatre, but all over the country — they take a look at the two of you and they see potentially a dream ticket. A dream ticket for the White House. Things got so hot in the theater, Stevie Wonder stood up and did a bit of a jig. Perhaps he was shaking off some political ejaculate? Obama left the door open a little more than Clinton, who also used the occasion for a bit of tacky self-promotion for her national town hall meeting Monday. (Strategist Mark Penn later got a plug in on MSNBC, as well. Shrewd!) The message was clear, though: "We are both dedicated to doing the best we can to win the nomination, but there is no doubt we will have a unified Democratic Party." It seems to us that a Clinton/Obama ticket may be the best route for the Democrats. We put Clinton first because, let's face it, Hillary ain't going to be VP, especially not to Barack Obama. Obama, however, could fit quite nicely in the role and such a scheme could potentially lay the groundwork for a sixteen year Democratic run. That is, however, a bit of a quixotic, potentially naive projection - and not necessarily what the candidates want. The Democratic candidates, however, would be well-advised to consider such a tag team. |

Super clique Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Becks, Posh, Jada and Will Smith led the crowd into Los Angeles' Museum of Contemporary Art. The not-as-selective-as-we-imagined guest list included a big looking Lil Kim, Little Britain's Matt Lucas, Eva Pigford, Eva Longoria, Posh's fellow Spice Girl, Mel B, Stevie Wonder and, for some reason, Jon Voight. Check out some more pics, after the jump. |
