Twitter To The Rescue!

Have you ever lost your cell phone or your wallet or both and become overwhelmed with rage? HULK SMASH sort of rage?

What are you to do?

Well if you're famous, you can tweet about it, in hopes that your fan base will step up and save the day.




And that's just what smashing Hulk star Mark Ruffalo did during Winter Storm Jonas.

(I could totally write for US Weekly...is that still a thing? And yes, I know saying "Hulk star" is technically incorrect as Ruffalo wasn't in a "Hulk" move, but rather played the Hulk in various movies...but even with that indiscretion my future with US Weekly should be secure)


I like Ruffalo, and am glad things worked out for him. But it got me thinking, are there other celebrities who have used their fame to help their "cause"?

Let's explore:

The Many Faces Of A Prince

Us Weekly, the bastion of quality reporting through out the land, recently came under fire when they altered a photo of the boy Prince, 9 month old Prince George. 

The whole story on PAGE SIX


A spokes person for the magazine (I know, there are still magazines, can you believe it?!?) stated:


“The original image used for the Prince George cover was dark and bluish in tone and needed to be given an overall color shift for printing purposes. By no means did we go in and alter the color of his eyes or cheeks in this process.”


Why not? I say go to fucking town! So, here are 15 photos of what US Weekly could have done to the boy Royal of "Boyal" (Trademarked)


1.
Boy George as K.D. Lang. "Constant Craving" a binky.

2.
A. Raggedy Anne
B. Raggedy Andy
C. Raggedy Conan O'Brien

3.
A bouncer at a lesbian bar in Philly called "Sisters." 
I once used the bathroom there. 

4.
Lon Chaney Jr. AKA The Wolfman, jack! Not to be confused with Wolfman Jack...who also kind of looked like this.

5.
Rod Blagojevich. US royalty. Note the stripes ala a prison jumpsuit.

6.
A High School Football coach. "We're going all to States this year boys!"

7. 
The Heat Miser.
 "I'm mister Heat Miser, I'm mister warm...ba-da-da-da"

8.
Balthazar Getty...er, wait, maybe this one was K.D. Lang. 
Oh well. 
It doesn't really matter.

9. 
Cesar Romaro.
That guy couldn't be bothered to shave the mustache to play the Joker. Fuck man, Ledger actually died that's how dedicated he was.

10.
 Elton John. I know. It's a wig. But come on, the guy wrote Tiny Dancer. Cut him a break.

11.
Either the dude who works on my car or one time WWF Superstar, the Honkey Tonk Man (in 2014). Possibly the same person...

12.
Toronto Mayor, Rob Ford.
Yeah he's a crack addict, but he's fucking adorable!

13.
A Tennis Ball.

14.
Bieber. Fuck him.

15.
Lil' Glenn Danzig.
We Are 138, motherfuckers!
