Holy Blades of Glory!
Russian gold medalist Evgeni Plushenko has lost his ever-lovin' mind. We found a priceless video of him warming up the Olympic crowd with his figure-skating routine to Tom Jones's "Sex Bomb," complete with foam muscles and a gold bikini bottom. Gyrating, mugging, and generally making a fool out of himself, Evgeni proves that when retires his skates, Chippendale's will welcome him with open arms.
Website du Jour: When Love Breaks Down
"Before there were blogs, there were zines," writes the blogger behind When Love Breaks Down, a bitter but hilarious breakup blog with a twist. The breakup happened more than 10 years ago, and the blog is based on pages ripped from a zine the writer published back in 1998.

The cast of Slumdog Millionaire lit up the red carpet last night, but back home the residents of Mumbai's slums enjoyed the special moment, too. Neighbors of the child actors gathered around TVs to watch anxiously and celebrated when the movie triumphed.
Earlier this year, some poor Mumbai residents took issue with the term "slumdog," calling it derogatory.
Alex Trebek Is a Spaz
Jeopardy host Alex Trebek proves that it's boring being the know-it-all. (Dude, you may be smart — but you do have the answers in front of you all the time, remember?!) Anyway, here, he does an interpretive dance to demonstrate the answer to the question. I don't know why, but I had tears in my eyes after watching it.
