21 Reasons Why This Week Won’t Suck [July 3--8]
Is a national holiday enough to make sure a week doesn’t suck? No. It is not. A national holiday like the Fourth of July is certainly good, but that’s not the only thing getting COED employees through another week. We also need classic grindhouse sexploitation, and some good new metal and pop and hip-hop albums, along with a UFC championship and major-league poker playing. Good thing we have all that–and we want to share the stuff that keeps us going…

Taryn Manning [See Her Tonight on BURN NOTICE]
22 pics! Burn Notice isn’t the show it started as–but at least Season Six features a story line in a women’s prison. The character of Fiona (played by Gabrielle Anwar) is behind bars, and she’s hopefully sharing the showers with gals like guest star Taryn Manning. Check out these burning pics, along with Taryn’s turn as a desperado in Butch Walker’s “The Weight of Her”…

COED Staff Survey: Big Girls We Love
The world is full of sexy big women. We’re not saying that Beth Ditto is one of them, but we like how the queen-sized frontwoman for The Gossip is really comfortable with herself.

In fact, Beth got the broad-minded COED staff musing about other big broads who’ve won us over in movies, televisions, and music videos. Check out the curvy gals who take up lots of space in our own fantasies…

“A lot of people think that rock ‘n roll is dead,” says Julia Pierce, “but we want to make it something new and fresh.” Julia has a strong advantage there. She’s the lead singer for Cherri Bomb, whose average age is 15 years old. The new This Is the End of Control is their proper debut, and Julia’s talking to COED about what should rightfully be the Summer of Cherri Bomb.

Chuck Brown, RIP: Some Go-Go Music from the Gone-Gone Godfather [VIDEO]
Go-go music was kind of a failed genre back in the ’80s. Part of the problem was that everyone was trying to catch up to Chuck Brown. He was already the Godfather of Go-Go back then, thanks to his groundbreaking work with the Soul Searchers in the ’70s. We’re truly bummed to learn the 75-year-old soulster passed away today. Check out Brown’s timeless sound now, and get out to a go-go tonight.
