The divine Isabella Rossellini is not only beautiful (getting genes from Ingrid Bergman didn't hurt) and talented (Blue Velvet, anyone?), but also totally offbeat and funny. Here she is on the Sundance Channel's second installment of its Green Porno series telling us about the fascinating sex life of the limpet sea creature.
Get a load of this: The limpet (a sequential hermaphrodite) starts off sexless.

This song "Woo Hoo" is an ear worm, for sure. Years ago, this Japanese all-girl rockabilly band The 5678's performed it in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill. Now, I keep hearing "Woo Hoo" piped into stores, pizza joints, etc.

I saw this woman powerhouse of fabulousness perform last month, and lemme tell you, Leslie and the Lys do not disappoint. You gotta love a woman who composes rad lady jams and wears form-fitting gold suits with octopus shoulder pads on the outside. Her backup singers are amazing, her style is fierce, and she inspires freaks and geeks everywhere.

So I hear Dolly Parton is a guest on this season's American Idol. (I'm sooo gonna watch tonight.) In my eyes, Dolly can do no wrong. She's got an angelic voice that's a mix of strong and vulnerable, and even with the toned-down production of this original version of "Jolene," you can feel every bit of heartache and longing.

This trailer for the supremely silly She's the Man highlights what's best about the movie: the adorably goofy Amanda Bynes. (The hotness that is Channing Tatum is a close second.) Bynes plays Viola, who, in order to avoid some dumb cotillion her mother wants her to go to, disguises herself as her brother, Sebastian, goes to his boarding school, joins the soccer team, and falls in love with one of her teammates played by Tatum. Between her dude-like "suuup!"

How cute would it be to have a cat boyfriend? Okay, a little weird, too, but let's play along. Bjork and Spike Jonze, the director of this video for "Triumph of the Heart" from her album Medulla, create a video fantasy involving just that scenario.

I am seriously obsessed with this song. Just ask GeekSugar who informed me that "New Soul" by Yael Naim is the addictive little ditty that accompanies those Apple ads for the MacBook Air. We were practically co-authoring a dissertation together on why that is a perfect song for this product.

Is there any role this woman cannot take on? Queen Elizabeth I, an upper-crust bohemian in Notes on a Scandal, opposite personality cousins in Coffee and Cigarettes and now Bob freaking Dylan in I'm Not There?! This is a hazy clip, and only gives a glimpse of how Cate channels the Bob Dylan of Don't Look Back.

PJ Harvey was really hot stuff for a while in the '90s. She received multiple Grammy nominations, awards too numerous to mention, and Rolling Stone magazine named her "Artist of the Year" in 1995. In a world of talentless, "look at me, I'm sexy" hacks (I'm sure you know who I'm talkin' about!), her daring music, lyrics and performance style make her stand out.

Chan (pronounced "Shawn") Marshall aka Cat Power is a force of nature. She's a great singer/songwriter in the tradition of Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez and Stevie Nicks. It doesn't hurt that girlfriend's a great beauty with a "colorful" past.
