14 celebrities wearing ironic tshirts in 2011

Every year we see those attention-hungry Hollywood celebs getting even more greedy, and stooping to ridiculous levels to get their botoxed expressionless faces in the weekly gossip mags. Their weapon of choice when they’re desperate to lure the lens of a passing paparazzi ninja is the humble ‘slogan’ tshirt, and most often, the slogan is worn at the expense of their own intelligence (or lack thereof). We’ve trawled the gossip archives and found 14 of the best terrible celebrity tshirts of 2011, for your viewing pleasure. (C’mon, admit it, we all love seeing celebrities crash & burn).

it's funny, because Lindsay spent half of 2011 getting high.

We've been waiting to see Hasselhoff wearing this tee for years.it's funny, because Lindsay spent half of 2011 getting high.

Gratuitous low cut tshirt from Kate Perry. It's funny how she makes a kids icon look all grown up.

Beyonce's other half bears a striking resemblance to Obama, don't you think?

Tiffani, once a teenage heart-throb, just can't let go of her youth.

Sometimes paying homage simply isn't necessary Justin.

Kim Kardashian green is the new black, unless we're talking about eye makeup. Or animal friendly cosmetics. Or leather handbags. Or disposable plastic shopping bags.

Jessica, no comment. You should know better than to make references to 'meat' to your swarms of teenage male fans.

Does P Diddy even know how to vote?

Britney's smile really says it all.

Lindsay, we reckon you should swap the word 'Skinny' with 'Freckly'.

Don't beat yourself up about it Ms Campbell.

It's takes the worlds most beautiful man to have the gonads to wear his wife, nude, on his tshirt. Kudos Dave, kudos.

Schweppes Summer Rewind – Free tshirts for drinking fizzy drinks

JakeThePeg — Mon, 21 Nov 2011 11:11:08 +0000

If you’re an Aussie, you dig retro limited edition tshirts, and you’re a fan of a fizzy drink or two, then you’re in luck (and by fizzy drink, no, we don’t mean beer…geeez, everyone knows that Aussies aren’t fans of beer!).

Schweppes has just launched an awesome new campaign, with 500 of their retro tshirts up for grabs, every day of the week!

The way it works is kinda like ebay, it’s an auction of sorts, but the fun part is that instead of using real cash, you conduct your bids using Thread Creds (points collected from packs of Schweppes products).

And to add a bit more effervescence to this already bubbly deal, one of Sydney’s most exciting design duos, WBYK, has contributed to the 7 different tshirt designs on offer.

A couple of our faves from the Schweppes Summer Rewind range.

To get your hands on some Thred Creds, all you’ll need to do is purchase any specially marked Summer Rewind product from the Pepsi, Solo, Schweppes, Sunkist, Passiona or Mountain Dew range and hit summerrewind.com.au to register and activate your Thread Creds.

We always need an excuse in order to drink soft drink. This will definitely be ours for the next few weeks!

Moral Fibers – Give artists in developing nations a chance

JakeThePeg — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 03:25:04 +0000

Moral Fibers is a great concept. Their premise is simple – give artists from the developing world to earn an income from their art, printed onto tshirts and sold to the ‘first world’ via the Moral Fibers online store.

A couple of bright young sparks from Canada, Martin Weiss and Matthew Brightman, are the brains behind Moral Fibers. Currently, all of the contributing artists live in poverty stricken Carrefour, in Haiti. They receive 15% of the revenue for each of their tshirts sold, which will help the artists support their families and the community.

Stop buying overpriced tees from the corporate giants who are stashing your hard earned dollars to buy their next luxury yacht. Buy something unique, and make a difference, by shopping with Moral Fibers.

It’s been less than 24 hours since the news of tech-legend Steve Jobs sadly passed away, and already distasteful puns are flooding the web.

I find it ironic, and deeply disappointing, that many are using the very devices that Steve spent a lifetime refining to circulate completely and utterly inappropriate ‘jokes’ about Steves’ passing. What’s worse, is when this distaste is used for commercial gain, which is why today I’m giving two huge thumbs down to Better Than Pants for their effort below.

C’mon society, just because you don’t know someone personally, it doesn’t make their death any less tragic, and particularly doesn’t open up the floor for your own distasteful commentary.

RIP Steve, your contribution to the modern world deserves a moment of quiet moral reflection from us all.
