The Brits may be known for being "prim and proper," but when it comes to the practically Draconian regulations surrounding Olympic advertising there are no rules to this game. Even the words "London" and "Summer" have been banned from any advertiser who refuses to pay the costly sum of approximately $500 billion to the International Olympics Committee. There’s even an

Since the summer is half over, there's hope that we'll never have to hear Carly Rae Jepsen's ubiquitous hit 'Call Me Maybe' ever again. But before that happens, you'll have to endure the US Olympic swim team's cover of the monster pop phenomenon. Can you ever forgive us?

As a way to honor their hosts at the 2012 London Olympics, the athletes of Team USA try to wrap their tongues around "Cockney" rhyming slang. As you might expect, they put on a sorry performance. But fortunately it's also nothing short of hysterical, guv'nor.

The athletes have been training for the last four years. The city has been preparing for the last seven years. And the fans have been booking their tickets for months and months. The 2012 London Summer Olympics are upon us!

Has Olympic hurdler Lolo Jones, who famously tweeted that she's a virgin, finally found the perfect man? On 'The Tonight Show' last night, Jones jokingly said she's got her eye on none other than Tim Tebow. Now Tebow has yet another reason to take a knee.

Leave it to an Englishman to make the 2012 Olympic torch run one of the cutest moments in the history of the games.

Lolo Jones was going to be a big deal at the 2012 Summer Olympics no matter what. Not only is the American among the gold medal favorites in the 60 and 100 meters hurdles but she is quite attractive. In fact, we think she bears a resemblance to 'Parks and Recreation' star Rashida Jones. (No relation.) But the Olympian made a disclosure earlier this week that is sure turn spotlight on her even brig

Sacha Baron Cohen's latest film, 'The Dictator,' hits theaters today. But it's a bizarre and revealing article of swimwear the comic wore in his hit film 'Borat' that's been all over  news.
