We as a nation adore everything New Jersey. We love the people, their establishments, and and anything regarding the Garden State. And don’t try to deny it: We all helped Mike “The Situation” make $5 million dollars this year. And one thing we can’t get enough of: New Jersey’s housewives…

On last night’s Basketball Wives, things started off big. Then there was Gloria, who by the way, most of the ladies hate with a passion. At least she is actually on the way to being a wife with her engagement to barely famous Kevin Barnes. Or was she engaged to…
Thanks to Jennifer Love Hewitt, we know that when one vajazzles it’s the fine art of bedazzling one’s vajayjay. So what’s Tajazzle? Well, it a three-part system that combines the act of adorning one’s lady business with keeping dry and tasting delicious. Yeah. And thanks to Gawker we got our…
The glow of a million Christmas bulbs from nearby Santa’s Enchanted Forest cast their brilliance over the Bird Road Art Walk on Saturday as hundreds gathered to view, discuss, and celebrate Miami art.There were a heavy concentration of Latin American works especially by Cuban and Venezuelan painters. But there was…
First off, who knew Steve-O did stand-up? Secondly, who would’ve guessed a swarm of people would show up this past weekend, packing Coconut Grove’s Improv Comedy Club like this headliner would pack a port-o-potty with poo (and then roll down a hill inside of it), just to watch this Jackass…

We know how much you love the Captcha commenting system now in use on Cultist. Who doesn’t enjoy struggling to read nonsensical phrases to prove they aren’t evil robots. We hate to break it to you, but Captcha is going away. Cultist and the other Miami New Times blogs are…
When Cultist schedules an interview with critically acclaimed celebrities, we do our best in terms of punctuality. On the other hand, celebrities are notoriously late and rarely apologize for the inconvenience. That’s not the case with actor Manola Cardona, though, he’s a mensch. And in our eyes, he just might…
Hitting the malls and big box stores this weekend, the last before the big yuletide gift exchange, will be about as pleasurable as having a rowdy gang of creepy leprechauns tickle you with their callused hands. But we’re not just venting. We have a solution. The perfect, anti-mall, gift oasis…
Art Basel is long gone, but we’ve been wondering if W magazine ever got a glance at our Bert Rodriguez spoof of its Kim Kardashian cover. The magazine hosted various talks at Design Miami/, so there was a very good chance that someone from the publication saw it.Well, we finally…
Art books tend to be heavy both in weight and in visual content. They’re often expensive and show work by artists you’ll never meet, ever. Then there’s those by [Name] Publications, which feature Miami artists such as Daniel Newman and Beatriz Monteavaro. They may still be heavier than your average…

Oh, reality TV. How you take up so very much of our time. Over here at Cultist, we love ourselves some unscripted (well, semi-unscripted) drama. Especially when the program involves angry women. First, we had Bad Girls Club and now we have Basketball Wives. And these ladies are a truly…
Fashion Breakdown: Helmet from San Francisco, DIY glasses with Swarovski crystals and steel spikes, black leather jacket from NY with added pieces from English teacher’s sweater, epaulets are football shoulder pads, shredded shirt, and the cinch-waister used to be a corset. My pants are from Rick Owens, boots I have…
Miami has long been the central infected zone of an epidemic named Romero Britto. And it’s time to start talking quarantines, because the artist’s glossy pop art has not only infiltrated Paris, but the hallowed walls of the classiest art venue ever, the Louvre. (Well actually, his work will be…
For 29 years the King Mango Strut has claimed that it “put the nut back in Coconut Grove.” Leave it to organizers of satirical procession to put those nuts in its mouth. No, wait. Put nuts where the mouth is? Okay, so both sound dirty. But it all made sense…
Noche Buena is next week, and we’re in a bit of a jam. Our date’s an atheist and doesn’t eat meat. She’s worried the pre-meal prayer, and the stench of roast pork escaping La Caja China and clinging to her peacoat will make her feel like an outsider. Still, she insists…

That five-day art bender, better known as Art Basel, is slowly vacating the recesses of our brains. But if you’re feeling a little blue that we’ll have to wait a whole year to see that depth of art again, take solace in the following: You won’t have to see a…
If a huge disaster were to strike, and two people were to fall in love trying to escape the havoc, would the end result be a movie as trite as you might imagine? In this case, the answer is an assured, but not resounding, “no.” British director Gareth Edwards, best…
Jeff Bridges is God and, as image-captured from the original 1982 Tron, he’s also the devil in Disney’s mega-million dollar reboot, Tron: Legacy. The notion of a tragically split persona might have been scripted to give the new movie a measure of emotional gravitas, but why bother with writing when…
