Terry Richardson, Moby and Jared Leto Walk Into a Soho Cafe…

ANIMAL contributor Foster Kamer wrote an epic 8000 words or so about an afternoon he spent paling around with hercudouche Jared Leto, he of Requiem for a Dream and My So-Called Life fame, and his rocker bandmates in 30 Seconds to Mars. Shit got real when the gang got to Cafe Gitane and spotted Terry Richardson, who’d been snubbed to do the photo shoot for the article, sitting outside and creating a bit of an awkward moment, but shit got really real when Moby walked over to the table.

Troublemaker Moby’s Narcissistic Record Hopes

Moby on his latest album (released in May): “I spend a lot of time with my friends, just going out drinking and getting into trouble and dancing and so the record is very much a product of that. Hopefully a relatively honest record, because I wanted it to sound – maybe as narcissistic as this is – sort of like what my life actually is.” What, boring? |EdinburghNews|

TeaNY: No on Meat, Yes on Anthropods

Health-conscious reader, Vince Galvin, e-mailed us with this shocking discovery after taking a few sips of his recently purchased TeaNY Iced Tea:
“This bottle of ice tea was the most unbeliveably gross thing I’ve ever seen.
When I first opened I took a sip and looked in and saw something. A beetle. A large beetle. I let it sit a day so I could take a picture. By the time I got my camera, the ice tea had turned into a slimy jelly of mold and gook, carmelizing the beetle, as seen in some of the pictures.
If this is natural living, then I’m back on trans fats.”
Ew. Of course, this could possibly be a purposeful new brand of tea — possibly one concocted on this fateful evening. After the jump, behold the other startling visual evidence showing the decomposing images of Moby’s dainty-man tea.

and, oh, there are only 100 tickets available, so you might want to buy them sooner rather than
later.

How can you not admire his sense of philanthropy? It’s nice to know that Moby still cares and refuses to let go of his internet life support.

Moby Doesn’t Want You To Have His Email, Even Though He Won’t Be Checking His Email

Today, Gawker put up a post about Moby’s electronic withdrawl from the web. The organic techno hippy will no longer be answering emails and will instead hole up and revert to Luddism. So jokingly a comment went up, something to the effect of “let’s all email him and flood his inbox so he never uses it again” with his personal addy (slang) provided. Unfortunately, Moby’s management company wasn’t thrilled and asked Gawker’s managing editor Lockhart Steele to redact it. In any event we figured we’d just repost. So fellow pranksters and Mobyites, here it is again, where it will be safe from his thin granola encrusted fingers: boatmate@earthlink.net. But then again, he’s not checking his email, right?

Tiny-waisted mansy DJ Moby always struck us as the type of guy who’d throw a party that would suck. The picture was always so uninspired and precious: turntables blaring vintage Yaz…
