"Saturday Night Live" will not let a silly little beating stand in the way of what could be a rating's bonanza.
Kenan Thompson told Us Magazine Chris Brown is more than welcome on "SNL" anytime, saying, "We don't care about scandal. We just care about what brings us ratings! If we had them both on the show, that would be crazy."
But wait, there's more. Kenan says, "I know how women can get when you get a text message from another female, so I'm just saying -- you have to learn that you can't put your
hands on a female."
Kenan calls the whole Rihanna thing "an unfortunate situation."
There's a Latin phrase, res ipsa loquitur. Translation: The thing speaks for itself.

If you wanna get your child the gift of mental illness and homicidal nightmares for their birthday, just give them the Hallmark Joker b-day card -- which plays a voice recording of the phrase "Let's put a smile on that face" when opened ... and watch the smile on their face disappear. Lest we mention the bad taste for Heath Ledger's family....

From the waist up, Serena Williams was schoolmarm chic -- but the PTA might have a problem with those pants, which look like they were picked off the floor of a Spearmint Rhino.

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens were "spotted" in the adult section of a store somewhere in the world, and just happened to oblige a strange woman with a photo. You know, no strings attached.
Something about this smells, and it isn't the party sheep over Zac's right shoulder.

David Hasselhoff let us know how to say "Merry Christmas" in German -- but when he was done with our questions, all he had to do was turn around and have his embroidered booty tell us to "Back Hoff."

Joaquin Phoenix decided to spit rhymes into a mic the other night at a bar in Culver City, Calif. -- which caused everyone who heard him to spit up in their mouths.
The guy just quit acting to become a rock star ... and if this freestyle disaster is any clue as to how his music career will go, let's just say it's DOA.

In a so called "political satire," makers of a waffle mix showcasing Barack Obama have many calling it a racial stereotype that goes waaay too far.
The offensive material includes such gems as Obama wearing an Arab-like headdress on the top flap of the box, while the back of the box depicts Barack in stereotypical Mexican dress. The recipe includes a tip: "While waiting for these zesty treats to invade your home, why not learn a foreign language?"
The men who created the controversial Obama Waffles sold their lack of genius for $10 a box during the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C. this week. Organizers have since cut off sales, saying they had not realized the boxes displayed "offensive material."
The Obama campaign declined to comment.
