Rambo on steroids: In case you thought it almost impossible for a 61 year-old to get in Rambo shape, it’s not, especially with the help of human growth hormones. Sylvester Stallone, the star of the Rambo movies, said he used human growth hormones to get buff for the new "Rambo" movie. He says it’s “nothing,” and defends its use for getting in shape. Stallone, the director and co-writer of the new “Rambo” movie predicts that the hormone will be sold over the counter in 10 years, though it is currently band from major league sports.
Snickers orrrr... pot: Forget In-and-Out Burger and other well known California drive-thru’s, LA will now be known for another convenience stop. The Herbal Nutrition Center in Los Angeles has installed a 24-hour medical marijuana vending machine, according to an Associated Press story. But, before Californians get too excited, they have to have carry cards authorizing marijuana use for medical purposes in order to access the vending machine.
Old Kids: The New Kids On The Block may be old kids now, but apparently not too old to still kick it together. The ‘90s boy band New Kids On The Block are back with a new song they recorded this past November in Orlando. Fourteen years later, we wonder if their new song is as good as “You Got It (The Right Stuff”) was in 1989.
More Missy, literally: The former Portsmouth resident and lady rapper/producer is going 3-D. Disney Studio's did it up with a music video that combines her two songs. Read the Billboard story. See and hear home-grown versions of the original: "Ching-a-ling" and "Shake Your Pom Pom." Can’t wait for the Feb. 14 launch on MTV? See Bono, Hannah Montana in 3D too.
