● Roseanne Barr announced Thursday that she has filed the requisite paperwork to run for the Green Party nomination, just as she said she would.

There is a very long Bob Dylan tribute album coming out tomorrow, with all proceeds going to Amnesty International. It's a good cause, but at 76 songs long, there's bound to be a handful of WTF-ery buried in between the Patti Smith and the Johnny Cash. Case in point: Miley Cyrus being tasked with "You're Going to Make Me Lonesome When You Go," one of the more plaintive tracks off Dylan's classic Blood on the Tracks. If your inner rockism hasn't rage-jolted you into a coma, you can watch the newly released music video after the click.

A few years ago, Miley Cyrus filmed a remake of a French movie called LOL, about a teenager's sexual awakening while dealing with typical teen drama involving, but not limited to: her no-good boyfriend, her mom's divorce, the total non-fun of going to high school everyday. Just being a teen, you know? Anyways, the movie was shelved for whatever reason, maybe because the studio realized it wasn't very good. As one theory goes, Miley's real life drug experimentation cast a bad light on her fictional bad self, and it took forever to edit the film so it would seem less true to life. After all the delay, it's back on track. A trailer was released today, promising all the Lol-ing you can stomach.
