I’m sorry to disappoint athletic Pokémon fans out there. This is not a jockstrap, it’s a drinking cup shaped like the monster catching Poké Ball. I’m not sure if it’s licensed, but I’m pretty sure Nintendo would rather license this and release all of its games on iOS than approve a Pokémon Ball Cup.

It holds 20 oz. of liquid. Er, drinks. Dammit you and your dirty minds! You can order one from PartyBell for $3 (USD), although as of this writing they’re on sale for $2.

It’s about time somebody started painting UK phone boxes in TARDIS blue. My only question is, what took so long? This is now happening in the city of Leeds.

But that’s not all. The phone boxes are also getting recording devices so that visitors and residents can record their thoughts about Leeds for other people to watch. It will be full of stuff like “Great city, but this TARDIS isn’t even bigger on the inside? Bollocks!”

A company called aql is handling it all. Unfortunately, the boxes won’t be all over the U.K. – just in Leeds. They have to rig them to make the TARDIS sounds though. How could you not add that?

Adriana Lima always looks great, but we’ve never pegged her as a dark lipstick gal. That’s why it was so shocking to see her rocking deep red lips this week. As expected, the color looked amazing on her. Rihanna wore a lot of pearls to the Chanel show during Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week and Uma Thurman showed us that she just doesn’t age… at all.

At the 2013 BET Awards, stars shined and stumbled. Janelle Monae sported the best pompadour we’ve seen in a while, but someone should probably tell Mya to trim her hair extensions.

This is the story of Girlie. She is only about a year old and her entire life has been a stray one … until now. But we’ll get to that in a second.

Girlie first showed up at the Exelon power plant last summer, and that’s where plant worker Kara noticed her. Even though the dog was far from docile, Girlie and Kara formed a bond that lasted throughout the year. With patience and compassion, Kara slowly earned Girlie’s trust. It was apparent to Kara, who has two agility dogs, that Girlie possessed an innate desire to be around humans, even though her feral nature made her wary.
