>>> We know what you’re thinking: Philly won’t be a “real city” until we find a way to lock ourselves in the bar, turn up the music real loud, strap on old-style rollerskates (because rollerblades are the first step in the death of one’s soul), get drunk as hell, and SEE WHAT HAPPENS. Luckily, the [...]

As we mentioned a little while back, Philebrity is pleased to be curating the music stage at the Art Star Craft Bazaar, to be held next weekend, May 12 and 13, at Penn’s Landing.

Maybe Christine O’Donnel (right) was on to something: Wilmington, DE came in at number three behind Orlando and Las Vegas on Men’s Health Magazine‘s list of the “smuttiest” cities in the U.S. The list was compiled using, “the number of DVDs purchased, rented, or streamed (AdultDVDEmpire.com); adult entertainment stores per city (StorErotica.net); rate of porn [...]

According to Philadelphia Business Journal, a $17 million settlement was reached in the federal civil trial. PBJ reported, “The bulk of the settlement will go to the families of two Hungarian tourists that died, Dora Schwendtner, 16, and Szabolcs Prem, 20.”

As it always seems to happen, when someone who is unappreciated dies, all of the fans and tributes come out of the woodwork. So it should be no surprise that with the passing of Adam Yauch a.k.a. MCA of the Beastie Boys (it’s basically MCA day on Philebs today), tributes and events are popping up. [...]

What can we say about Mickey Avalon? Well, if you don’t already know and enjoy his music, you probably won’t. But his laid-back, lazy rap has actually made him surprisingly successful (anyone who knows who he is was quite confused when he popped up in a commercial a few years back). He’s playing the Troc [...]

You really should be going when you have to pay anyway because it’s something we should all be proud of, but if you spent a little too much this month already (those bathing suits ain’t gonna buy themselves) don’t worry. Next Friday, May 18th, is the International Council of Museums’ International Museum Day. So, in [...]

Leave it to good ol’ Tommy Pope, Chip Chantry, and cohorts to call attention to the victims in the whole return of Pat Burrell: The boyfriends of all the women he slept with. Oh, and bonus points for showing us something we never thought we’d see: Doogie Horner out of his suit and into a [...]

You know what, we love Vernon Odom. But we don’t see him on TV nearly enough. He’s got that “take no shit” vibe that just comes through with everything he says, and we’re fans of that. Which is why he’s actually the perfect fit for the Free Speech Film Festival. Odom will be hosting/moderating the [...]

In the last week, the world lost two of its great creatives: Adam “MCA” Yauch and Maurice Sendak (and, well, Vidal Sassoon). And for artists of a certain age, Yauch and Sendak sit near the top of a list of inspirations that have informed much that they have done. And so, local artist Jim McHugh [...]
