Samuel L. Jackson

If you thought Samuel L. Jackson urging a white reporter to say the N-Word was humorous... you may wanna watch this video.

During an interview with London’s 95.8 Capital FM station this week, the actor took a few moments to cover "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" by Taylor Swift.

Really, what else do you need to know? Listen now to Jackson's somewhat dirtier version now:

Not bad, huh?

You've gotta love Samuel L. Jackson.

The veteran actor sat down this week for an interview with Jake Hamilton of "Jake's Takes," only to make the situation quite awkward for the Caucasian reporter when the subject turned to the use of the N-Word in Django Unchained.

No? None? Which N-Word, Jackson asked? He then refused to answer any question related to this topic unless Hamilton said the full word.

Could the journalist do it? Watch and find out?

Jackson, meanwhile, has already said that Django Unchained is entertainment and folks such as Spike Lee should relax over its depiction of history.

Samuel L. Jackson has an indirect message for Spike Lee:

Chill, dude.

In an interview with The Los Angeles Times, the veteran actor responds to the controversy surrounding Django Unchained, with Lee leading the charge against its use of the N-Word.

Samuel L. Jackson wants America to wake the f--k up and re-elect President Barack Obama.

In a new viral ad, he conveys this dream as only he can ... with massive amounts of profanity.

Samuel L. Jackson - Wake the F--k Up!

Wake the F--k Up is a Dr. Seuss-style rhyme, written by Adam Mansbach, author of the children's book Go the F--k to Sleep (which Jackson also read aloud at one point).

Wake the F--k Up features Jackson and a little girl urging the rest of her family to vote for Obama. Same excerpts from the ad, produced by a liberal super PAC supporting Obama:

Samuel L. Jackson is making news for some candid remarks about President Barack Obama and why he supported him in 2008. What did the actor say exactly?

That he pulled the lever for Obama because of his race.

In an interview with Ebony, Jackson said, "I voted for Barack because he's black. 'Cuz that's why other folks vote for other people, because they look like them ... That's American politics, pure and simple. [Obama's] message didn't mean [bleep] to me."

Jackson then went on to drop the n-word many times discussing Obama, telling the magazine, "When it comes down to it, they wouldn't have elected a [bleep]."

"Because ... what's a [bleep]? A [bleep] is scary. Obama ain't scary at all. [Bleeps] don't have beers at the White House. [Bleeps] don't let some white dude, while you in the middle of a speech, call [him] a liar," he said, referring to Joe Wilson's famous outburst.

"A [bleep] would've stopped right there and said, ‘Who the f--k said that?' I hope Obama gets scary in the next four years, 'cuz he ain't gotta worry about getting re-elected."

There you go. The only thing missing is a Snakes on a Plane reference.

Provocative word choice aside, Jackson's point appears to be that some people vote based on race, and that Obama won because while he is black, he does not fit negative African-American stereotypes. For more on the subject, see Rock, Chris.

The campaign of Presidential quasi-candidate Stephen Colbert was dealt a major blow this week when it was established that voters can’t write his name in on the ballot during Saturday’s Republican primary in his native South Carolina.

Colbert has, as a result, devised a new strategy.

Well, Colbert Super PAC supporting him has anyway. The organization is now asking voters to pull the lever for Herman Cain (remember him?), who still appears on the ballot, as he qualified for it before dropping out of the race.

Stephen Colbert Super PAC Ad (Ft. Samuel L. Jackson)

As Colbert’s TV ad, narrated by the incomparable Samuel L. Jackson says of Cain: “He’s such an outsider, he is not even running for president!”

The ad slams Colbert for “turning our election into a circus.” Obviously.

If you're confused, and frankly we don't blame you if so, the Colbert Super PAC is a political action committee ... formed expressly to mock such things.

A Super PAC can raise and spend unlimited amounts of cash on a candidate's behalf, yet cannot coordinate efforts with the candidate directly.

Colbert is staging a faux campaign as a means of ridiculing the system's absurdity, though he led Jon Huntsman and tied Rick Perry in one poll.

Huntsman quit the race Monday, while Rick Perry dropped out this morning. Colbert is still going hard, even if it's on Herman Cain's behalf.

Watch your back, Mitt and Newt.

A well-muscled man is forced to compete in fights to the death with other individuals, but granted the chance to win his freedom if he comes out on top of enough battles in a row.

Sound familiar? Like a certain Oscar-winning movie from 2000 that starred Russell Crowe?

Yes, Arena has many Gladiator qualities, but so what? That film ruled! And this one features a fun cast of Kellan Lutz (The Twilight Saga), Nina Dobrev (The Vampire Diaries) and Samuel L. Jackson (every other movie ever made). Check out the official trailer for this October 11 release now:

Author Adam Mansbach recently penned a children's book that poignantly captures the magic of putting your little ones down after a long day.

Of course, Go The F--k to Sleep comes with this tiny disclaimer: "Due to its explicit language, you probably should not read it to your children."

Even if you haven't read this instant classic, you probably get the gist. But when actor Samuel L. Jackson reads it, the words really hit home.

Listen to Jackson's (NSFW) spoken word version below. It's quite eye-opening (pun intended) ... now for the love of G-d, go the f--k to sleep!!

The 2009 ESPY Awards, which air this Sunday night but were taped earlier this week, honor the best in sports, beauty and, apparently, gigantic breasts.

The event was hosted by Samuel L. Jackson, who always brings another element any place he goes: total and utter coolness.

But was this actor even the coolest person on the red carpet? Swimming champion Michael Phelps appears to have something to say about that.

Take a look at each star below and answer the question that follows:

Who looked cooler at the ESPY Awards?

The Lakers are the hottest ticket in L.A. - at least when the happen to be playing the World Champions. Yesterday, the heated Lakers-Boston Celtics rivalry resumed and numerous stars ventured to the Staples Center to take in the action.

For instance, here's Snoop Dogg, wife Shante Broadus and Boston's own Dane Cook cheering on their respective teams. Yeah, we know, it's no Zanessa ...
