Jack White is cooler than Kanye (duh!)

God Jack White proved that he has a humorous side to his many talents when he mocked Jackass West at the Toronto Film Festival.

We've all heard a bunch of cry-baby Kanye jokes lately, but Jack trumps them all by having the guts to act one out.  Filmmaker Emmett Malloy (who you know as half of The Malloys - directors of 'Icky Thump') was in the middle of gushing about his new Stripes documentary, 'Under the Great White Northern Lights', when Jacks stormed out of no where and said "I'm gonna let you finish, I'm gonna let you finish, but Orson Welles did one of the greatest films of all time!"

The crowd instantly cheered.  Watch it here:

Who is hotter: Jack White or Alison Mosshart?

Personally, I can't decide. But with The Dead Weather, we don't have to. If you have not had the pleasure, allow me to do the honors. The Dead Weather is a supergroup consisting of: Our own personal God, Jack White (The White Stripes, The Raconteurs); Alison Mosshart (The Kills); Dean Fertita (The Waxwings, Queens of the Stone Age); and Jack Lawrence (The Raconteurs). Below, the video. "The Dead Weather: Their Oral History and Future Plans. An explanation and apology from the band themselves." Also, probably the most badass video ever, "Treat me like Your Mother." Enjoy!

Big God, Little God

Keith Richards told Rollingstone magazine (he's so old school. doesn't he know no one reads that shitzine anymore) that he has been recording with Jack White. "I enjoy working with Jack," he said. "We’ve done a couple of tracks."

This is the passing of a torch that is long over do. The White Stripes opened for a couple of 'Stones shows, and Jack was prominently featured in the 'Stones flick "Shine a Light", so it's only natural that they finally record a new song (or even an album!) together.

All this is such sweet satisfaction for my hipster ass. I remember a certain republican college friend mocking me 7 years ago for my White Stripe's obsession, and calling the holy band 'shit' and other blasphemous names I won't repeat. My reply was always "not liking the White Stripes today would be like not liking the Rolling Stones in the 60's" Clearly Keith agrees with me. suck it.
