Miley Cyrus Loves Penises... And Birthday Cake

Miley Cyrus Loves Penises... And Birthday Cake

Yes, it's true. The 19-year-old star loves both, especially when combined into one big sugary penis cake. Miley Cyrus celebrated boyfriend Liam Hemsworth's birthday on Saturday night at Downtown L.A.'s Club Icon by licking and posing with a hardly anatomically correct penis cake. more ›

TV Junkie: Want more Cake? Also: Costume Designers Guild Awards Winners

Cake @ The Troubadour 02/18/11

Cake @ The Troubadour 02/18/11
       

One thing is for certain, Los Angeles loves Cake. With four back-to-back sold-out Troubadour shows, the band that gave us any number of rock anthems ("Jolene", "The Distance", and "I Will Survive" come to mind) is back on tour in support of their latest full-length, Showroom of Compassion. Last night the band started their mini LA residency to a packed house of diehard fans, proving that the band is all that we remembered - irreverent, ballsy, and Don't-Take-Yourself-Too-Seriously good fun. After the second song John McCrea turned to the crowd, which seemed equal parts parents and their kids, and said, "Thank you for coming to our show, and thank you for remembering we exist". If the number of folks unironically screaming the lyrics "And much did you pay for your rock'n'roll t-shirt/that proves you were there, that you heard of them first" while in head-to-toe Cake paraphernalia was any indication, they never forgot. more ›

Tonight In Rock: Cake, Marnie Stern, Har Mar Superstar, The Monolators

Tonight Sacramento-bred alternative rockers Cake will be headlining the Troubadour. Minnesotan genre-hopping, full-figured singer-songwriter Har Mar Superstar is poised to take on the Satellite. And, lastly, LAist favorites the Monolators (LAist Review, #2) will be gracing hole-and-corner Pehrspace. But we strongly suggest heading over to the Echo to catch NY's most proficient guitar player Marnie Stern. LAist favorites, Sacramento's Tera Melos are slated to kick things off. more ›

Sandra Lee's Semi Homemade, Completely Absurd Kwanzaa Cake

Sandra Lee's Semi Homemade, Completely Absurd Kwanzaa Cake

Invited to a Kwanzaa gathering next week but don't know what to bring your host? If you're thinking something edible and festive, we suggest not "making" this Kwanzaa Cake as demonstrated by the Food Network's domestic can-opening diva, Sandra Lee. Why not? Well, it's not that it's offensive...exactly. It's just...ridiculous. more ›

Why You Shouldn't Buy Your Custom Cake at Wal*Mart

Why You Shouldn't Buy Your Custom Cake at Wal*Mart

Some would say that one of the nice things about LA is our lack of Wal*Marts. Truth of the matter is, in order to give the Walton Family your money you pretty much have to leave LA County. Digg today reminds us what we're missing. Here we have a birthday cake that was (hopefully) ordered over the phone. Although the quality is (hilariously) lacking, you can bet that the price was right.... more ›
