This is one of the stupidest stories I’ve ever covered, but it’s not every day a prominent group of fuddy-duddies calls for the revolution of the entire cable industry because a pop star drank her own pee, so you know, here we are I suppose.
In a letter to supporters Tuesday, the PTC warned against watching Ke$ha: My Crazy Beautiful Life and its “disgusting, vile content.” It also called on cable providers to allow subscribers the option of choosing which channels they receive.
“Why should we have to pay for this kind of garbage just so we can get access to Discovery, Disney, or the Golf channel? It’s outrageous — and it shouldn’t be that way,” reads the letter. [Billboard]
Two things about this blockquote:
1) As we mentioned last week, John McCain is planning to introduce a bill that would call for a la carte cable packages. That’s what the PTC is getting at here. In reality, a la carte probably isn’t as simple as everyone makes it out to be because cable companies are going to get their $100+ a month from you one way or the other, but let me state in no uncertain terms that if the tipping point for the whole issue turns out to be Ke$ha drinking her own pee, I will laugh so hard I will run out of oxygen and die. R.I.P. me.
2) It should tell you everything you need to know about the PTC that they included the Golf Channel in their short list of desired cable channels.
But anyway, let’s see what the pee-drinker herself has to say about this situation.
“I heard it was good for you. That was, like, the rumor,” she said. “But I don’t know. I’m also just one that doesn’t shy away from things. I’m not good at saying ‘no’ so I just figure, f— it, I’ll try anything once. So I tried it. I wouldn’t recommend it. It was pretty gross. And I don’t think it really did anything very beneficial to me so, yeah, I wouldn’t probably do it again.”
It should tell you everything you need to know about Ke$ha that the last sentence includes the word “probably.”

Bear Grylls joke in 3, 2, 1…
OK.
damn it, I made this joke on the other link, but with out pic posting abilities. Well done ender.
Pretty sure that drinking her own pee is one of the less offensive things she’s done. Because she is the worst.
Take a person stranded and clinging on a life raft in the middle of the Pacific ocean for six weeks and ask him, ok, just ask him if he’d watch Kesha’s show. I doubt he would.
That’s good jokecraft there.
Note to Ke$ha… drink someone else’s pee. You must know how rank you are.
Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No, but I do it anyway because it’s sterile and I like the taste.
You win +1 internets!
I ain’t crazy and I ain’t a guy!
-Ke$ha
I think it was two weeks ago on The Soup where Joel McHale pointed out why Ol’ $ couldn’t land a man. Add this to that list.
But she… she IS pee?
Is Ke$ha just an alternate identity for Courtney Love? Look at that banner pic!
I bet the nose was poor, and the aftertaste of ignorant desperation for attention stayed with the palate .
But still; FUCK The Parents Television Council. “OHES NOES I HAZ TO HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH MY KIDZ!”
Yeah, still trying to figure out which is the lesser of two evils, because they are both the WORST.
PTC is much much worse. Tell those asshole how to figure out what a remote is and let ME Decide what is suitable and what is not for my child and i to watch on TV; not those cock suckers.
But think of the children!!
*So that the content adults view is chosen for them.
The ironic thing is that this would never have been brought to my attention if the PTC didn’t do their typical pearl-clutching and scream and yell about it. See if I don’t want to watch something I don’t tune in, and you couldn’t pay me all the money to watch Ke”DollarSign”ha do anything at any time.
Is it pearls?
the streisand effect
Yep. She should be sure to thank these yahoos for the free publicity. AND CAN IT PLEASE BE THE LAST TIME ANYONE GIVES HER ANY?
Shouldn’t the fact that Ke$ha’s name is on it keep people from watching more than a condemnation from the PTC?
I really don’t like the ptc like at all. Fuck’em and thier vapors having high toned pretentious golf watching presumably pasty white clenched so hard they could shit a diamond asses. That being said drinking your piss is kinda stupid
Isn’t this why channel blocking features were put into TVs?
Whoa, PTC, the Disney channel? Apparently you didn’t get the same memo my folks did in the 90’s when they cancelled our cable just to get rid of the Disney channel because Michael Eisner was giving benefits packages to the gays.
“P-Drinker” is as good a name, if not better than “Ke$ha”, tho.
Ke$ha has her own reality show? Also, who the fuck is Ke$ha?
You lay off the Golf Channel you son of a bitch.
If you don’t, me and Brandel Chamblee are gonna kick your ass.
@Moose, “P-Drinker” sounds like the name of one of the villagers in Hot Fuzz.
Hey PTC I have no problems with paying for the channels I want to see. I think if I could do that I’d have about 12 channels.
Insert R Kelly piss joke here….
It’s also high time we stopped worshipping these football players. O.J. Simpson, Rae Carruth and Vinny Testaverde don’t deserve that kind of respect..
Also, Jack Nicholson?
Any chance this will convince the WWE to bring back Right to Censor?
Stupid pop star does does something stupid to shock clueless parents; clueless parents act shocked. The circle of life continues.
