I though that the upcoming season of VH1's venerable old warhorse The Surreal Life had wrapped months ago, but apparently it hasn't even begun filming yet. MISS CLEO is in the cast, along with Randy Savage, Dabney Coleman, and Carrot Top. Yes, THAT Carrot Top.
Carrot Top picture removed for burning my eyes.
Jon Lovitz kicked Andy Dick's ass. For real.
Here's the trail of tears, from the Onion's AV Club:
Lovitz and Dick have been at loggerheads since a 1997 Christmas party at Hartman's house, five months before his troubled wife Brynn flipped out, fatally shooting Hartman, then killing herself. "Andy was doing cocaine, and he gave Brynn some after she had been sober for 10 years. Phil was furious about it - and then five months later he's dead," said Lovitz, adding that when he filled in on Hartman's "Newsradio" sitcom, "I told Andy, 'I wouldn't be here now if you hadn't given Brynn that cocaine.' "
Wow. It gets worse.
Last year, Lovitz related, a drunken Dick strolled up to his table at Ago in West Hollywood, rudely downed his guests' peach liqueur drinks, and "looked at me and said, 'I put the "Phil Hartman hex" on you - you're the next one to die.' I said, 'What did you say?' and he repeated it. I wanted to punch his face in, but I don't hit women."
I love Lovitz. LOVITZ OR LEAVEITZ!
When the two ran into each other at the Laugh Factory last Wednesday, "I wanted him to say he was sorry for the 'Phil Hartman hex,' " Lovitz told us. "First he says, 'I don't remember saying that.' Then he leans in and says, 'You know why I said it? Because you said I killed Phil Hartman.' Which I never said."
FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT
"Then he asked me to be in his new movie," Lovitz said. "I grabbed him by the shirt and leaned him over and said, 'I don't want to be in your movie! I don't want to be in your life!' I pushed him against the rail. Then I pushed him again really hard. A security guard broke it up. I'm not proud of it . . . but he's a disgusting human being."
PREACH
Laugh Factory owner Jamie Masada, who witnessed the assault, said, "Jon picked Andy up by the head and smashed him into the bar four or five times, and blood started pouring out of his nose." Lovitz told Page Six, "All the comedians are glad I did it because this guy is a [bleep]hole."
WOO!!!!!!!
I can think of only one way to POSSIBLY follow that insane story...
(Contented sigh)

Sweet Jeebus. I remember being interested in what I read about, but the picture kinda exploderated whatever it is I read.
I'm late on responding to this, but I seriously do a double take every time I pass this picture.
It is now almost a month later, and I feel the need to comment on this picture once more. GOD DAMN. I may have to re-post this pic as a bonus. Sweet Christ.
