LIKE ROCKY McCain (Photo: Getty Images) • More goodies from The Real McCain: During a 2006, Mac kept addressing congressman Rick Renzi (who's white but quite tan) as "boy," until Renzi, a former linebacker said, "You call me that one more time and I'll kick your old [expletive]." They traded blows. Later McCain demanded an apology. Renzi refused. Then they became total bros.
• Another Mac attack: In a sit-down with General David Petraeus McCain confuses Shiites with Al-Qaeda. Again.
• Rolling in the dough: Jay-Z and Mary J. Blige rake in more than $9 million after just eight shows. An estimated $8.9999 million of that goes to Live Nation.
• [expletive] bump Bart: To protect kids from The Simpsons' apparent anti-education messages, a Venezuelan TV station has yanked the show off the air and replaced it with the Baywatch Hawaii.
• The end is nye: Late night television mainstay ER will be taken off of life support and ended next year, much to the disappointment of a portion of the ER cast members who comprise its viewership.
• Toni down: Having vowed publicly to never breathe again, singer Toni Braxton scares us all with a trip to the hospital in Vegas for an "undisclosed ailment." That ailment could just be Vegas.
• Dumb money: Dubai's prince, Sheik Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, "Ham" to us, hits up a Bedouin desert festival and buys 16 camels for $4.5 million, including one female camel for $2.7 million.
