Cheech & Chong Take Their Love/Hate Relationship Back on the Road

BuzzSugar — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 14:30:03 -0700

I wonder if Cheech Marin caught a trailer of Pineapple Express, which prompted him to announce that he thinks "dope humor" is just as relevant today as it was in the 1970s - if not more so. "I think it's time for a revival of dope jokes," he recently said in an interview. "It's a much bigger audience now, it's much more widespread and institutionalized."

Thus, Cheech and his buddy Tommy Chong are reuniting and bringing their dope humor back to the stage for a Live Nation-promoted tour called "Hey, What's That Smell?" The twosome has had its share of problems in recent years with bickering and struggling with "creative differences." Cheech recently stated, "There's this veiled hatred," and then added, "We've kind of resolved that. We've gotten to the age where we don't feel like fighting anymore because the end is a lot closer than the beginning." Billboard goes on to say that the two "tossed around some ideas and figured a comedy tour would be 'the most fun' and 'the least hassle'."

Though Chong, who has continued doing standup, joked "I guess Cheech forgot how tough standup is."

Think you'll check out Cheech and Chong's live show if it comes to your town?

For Jessica Szohr and Ed Westwick, the action at the Knicks-Lakers game was in the audience as they publicly kissed in NYC last night. Ed had a steamy plotline on Gossip Girl, but in real life things aren't so mysterious anymore. We heard rumors about these two back in December and saw them out with Chace last Thursday, but these photos of them cuddling up, laughing, and drinking beer confirm it. Meanwhile, America Ferrera sat sandwiched between her boyfriend Ryan and Jay-Z, and left with her pregnant costar Ana Ortiz. Jay-Z didn't have his own courtside partner with him this time, but he looked like he was having a blast with America despite the Lakers beating the Knicks.

To see more photos of Ed, Jessica, America, Jay-Z, Whoopi Goldberg, Ana Ortiz, and others just read more.
