The Cars.com Super Bowl XLVI commercial features a guy with a creepy extra singing head that comes out of his back. The singing head, describes as a smooth Disco-singing head, tries to persuade the man to get the car it wants. Take a look:
Cars.com will also raise money with the commercial. During the game, when the Cars.com commercial airs, viewers who use the Shazam App to tag the ad will earn $1.00 for one of seven charities in contention for a maximum $100,000 donation from the site.
Could a sequel to Ferris Bueller's Day Off be in the works? This teaser video appeared on Youtube showing Matthew Broderick in character as Ferris (all grown up) standing in a nice hotel room. He opens the curtains and utters the line "How could I possibly go to work on a day like today?" The teaser is part of a longer ad for the 2012 Honda CR-V that will air during Super Bowl XLVI. It's only ten seconds and it's the best ad we've seen in a very long time. We think it's time for Mr. Bueller to have another day off. Take a look:
Dillon Gage and Jean-Paul Gaultier have partnered for designer gold bars. One side of the gold bar is engraved with a heart with Gaultier's trademark sailor stripe . The gold bar also features radiating rays and a banner displaying the name Jean-Paul Gaultier.
Terry Hanlon, president of Dillon Gage Metals, says, "Never before has a fashion icon designed a gold ingot. The Gaultier bar is a one-of-a-kind, limited-quantity collector's piece that not only is a great investment but it will also become a a piece of history. The price of gold has risen more than fivefold in the last 10 years, outperforming almost every other investment. The Gaultier one-ounce bar is the perfect Valentines, birthday or graduation gift for someone special."
This weekend is the finale of this season of Kourtney and Kim Take New York. Finally we get to see Kim's total meltdown when she realizes she doesn't love Kris Humphries. Kim is talking with her sister and Scott Disick and she totally loses it as she realizes how she has turned Kris' life upside down and how she wasted everyone's time and money with a giant wedding. She cries and cries. For once, Scott doesn't have something snarky to say. Take a look:
The Queensland Museum of Natural History in Australia has the coolest dinosaur exhibit we've ever seen. Life-size animatronic dinosaurs mingle with the crowds in order to bring history alive. They ride escalators, they chase small children (who cry and run -- what ever were their parents thinking??) and they even eat hot dogs. We want to go there immediately. Take a look:
Universal Orlando's newest attraction, Despicable Me Minion Mayhem, will open Summer 2012. The exhibit will take guests on a 3-D adventure from the film, Despicable Me, including Gru, Margo, Edith, Agnes and the mischievous minions. The characters in the attraction will be voiced by the film's original cast. Universal is working with Chris Meledandri's Illumination Entertainment to bring the adventure to life.
The experience begins when guests enter Gru's home, where they learn that they're being recruited to become minions and undergo "minion training." Things don't go as planned, and guests find themselves on a wild journey with Gru and his daughters. At the end of the training, guests join an interactive, minion-inspired dance party.

Reebok led two teams of CrossFit athletes through a Workout of the Day (WOD) at the top of the Empire State Building.
