Yesterday at a McDonald’s restaurant in Pooler, Georgia a woman died and nine people had to be taken to the hospital after inhaling toxic fumes inside the restaurant.I know what you’re thinking, and no, the chemical fumes were not coming from the kitchen. So far, police believe chemicals from cleaning supplies…
As I walked into Dunkin’ Donuts yesterday to grab a coffee in Miami, I noticed pumpkin doughnuts for sale. Suddenly a little frisson ran down my spine. I was transported back to a sunny morning almost a decade ago in New York. Around 9 a.m. on that fateful September 11,…
Miley Cyrus is a boss. Don’t let the Hannah Montana shtick fool y’all … This 18-year old ex-Disney Channel princess loves tattoos, Joan Jett, and exploring her sexuality. Good girl gone bad? Bullshit, Miley’s just keeping it real. “There was this magazine article the other day,” Cyrus says in this…
Our list of celebrity MILFs over 50 is short. In fact, it only consist of one incredibly sexy, adorably gap-toothed pentagenarian. And like a virgin touched for the very first time, we’d probably last less than 30 seconds with her. Ironically, that’s also how long we can stomach her music…
We’d say kids these don’t know how to name their bands properly, but kids (and, really, we mean grown men, sometimes zillionaires) have been coming up with crappy band names for quite some time now. And it’s only going to get worse. All you need is login info to be…

Miami has breakfast chains such as Denny’s, IHOP, and the like. We boast a few two-bit diners and coffee shops too, as well as fancy hotel establishments that offer ostentatious brunch buffets on weekends. Michael’s Genuine serves cool breakfast items on Sundays, as do perhaps a couple of other restaurants…
Last week, the New York Post reported that sex in restaurants is on the rise. We’re not surprised. After all, what’s sexier that an incredible meal? Mix in a few glasses of wine and add to the fact that after paying the check you probably don’t have money left over…
Recently, Crossfade covered local musician and promoter Ricardo Guerrero’s declaration that “Miami Venues Suck Dick.” The scintillating article managed to pile up a total of 117 comments. Some people agreed with Guerrero’s statement. Others tried to offer suggestions to grow this little scene. It’s a classic underground music fight, and…
The 2011 MTV Video Music Awards show was packed full of “entertaining” surprises. It was revealed that Beyonce is preggers, Rick Ross paints quietly like Bob Ross, and Rebecca Black doesn’t know how to do the Dougie. Of course, the confounding fashion decisions were perhaps the most memorable part of…
Ass-claps and monster storms — two noteworthy phenomena that define Miami. And there’s no better way to get your fix than a hurricane party celebrating Irene’s apparent attack on our town. If there were an “ass-clapping” genre, local DJ, producer, and label owner Jesse Perez would top its charts. His…
During the past couple of weeks, there’s been a flurry of excitement surrounding my stance against weight-loss surgery. Basically, I’m against it. But what if you could reap the benefits of having WLS without ever entering an operating room?Rena Greenberg, a nationally certified hypnotist and author of The Right Weigh:…
When the World Trade Center was hit by terrorist attacks, I was living in New York City. I remember the horror and mass confusion of that beautiful summer morning that turned so terribly wrong. Like so many others, I had friends and colleagues who perished that day (and some who,…

Barbara Walters once infamously asked Katherine Hepburn: “If you were a tree, what kind would it be?” It is in that spirit that we attempt to figure out: If each Republican Presidential candidate were a food, what kind would he or she be?(Let us assure any Republican readers who may…

The Gathering of the Juggalos took place over the weekend. And while Crossfade is generally disgusted by the Insane Clown Posse’s mud-, soda-, and facepaint-obsessed “music festival,” our interest was piqued, ever so slightly, by last month’s announcement that batshit drug addict of the year, Charlie Sheen, would be a…
Earlier in the week, Crossfade reported on the new Hova-slash-Yeezy collabo “Otis” and how the track totally misses the point of the original Otis Redding song it samples. Put simply, this pair of premiere rap man-baby millionaires has, quite predictably, substituted soul for swag. Well, MTV debuted the video last…
US News & World Report recently noted that gastric bypass surgery not only cuts your appetite but also might reduce your desire for high-fat foods. Over the years, I’ve had friends who have suffered through gastric bypass or lap band procedures. They’ve all shed weight as if they had made…
