Patti LaBelle Is Hot

Not in the Paris Hilton sense (si, so '06 of us) -- LaBelle's joining the ever growing ranks of celebrity hot sauciers. Via TMZ:

Music legend Patti LaBelle is about to get very saucy -- literally! The 63-year-old vocal powerhouse is getting into the condiment business, by coming out with a line of five different hot sauces and relishes. Available later this year, the flavors will include Sweet Hot Jalapeno, Rich Red Blended Cayenne, and for all you menopausal women out there -- Hot Flash Blended Habanero & Jalapeno sauce! Patti's going from Lady Marmalade to Spice Girl!

Not that surprising considering she's already authored some cookbooks -- including the dorkily titled LaBelle Cuisine: Recipes to Sing About -- but it does add fuel (err, cayenne) to the growing celebrity hot sauce trend.

As we mentioned a ways back, Michael Anthony's spending his ex-Van Halen days concocting Mad Anthony sauces, a variation on Dexter Holland and his Offspring-approved Gringo Bandito and Joe Perry's Rock Your World, etc. So much rocker red sauce, so little time: Get busy sampling the spices ... and make sure to wash it down with some ice-cold Mansinthe. Mmm, Mansinthe. Wonder which celeb goes foodie next. Maybe some Fergalicioius brand bubblegum?

I used to date this girl 10yrs older than me when I was 19. And she ad this Patti Labelle air to her.. it was great, I just wasn't ready to take any of the 4 kids to school in the morning. She cooked for me a couple times, but it just wasn't cutting it. I guess she just had the looks, not the culinary skills of Mz. Labelle.

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...
