Joe Francis At amFar

Here’s the thing, if you decide to base an entire VHS/DVD series about girls “going wild,” there’s gotta be something really wrong with you.

Well immediately afterwards, The Hollywood Reporter got this amazing quote from him, “Just to convict people because you’re jealous of them is retarded. And you’re a retarded jury and you should be shot dead. You should. If they had the death penalty for juries, you should be shot. Dead. By a firing squad.” Oh yeah, you read that right.  Read More »

Ms. Simpson told the New York Post, “Now when I sing, I have a hoarse, rattly voice. I still sing alto, but I can’t sing soprano like I used to.” Oh, and apparently now people think she’s a man.  Read More »
