… unless you want to make Perez Hilton cry like a bitch.

Being surrounded by fight culture sometimes makes me forget how other folks react to violence. Will.I.Am’s manager apparently punched Perez Hilton in the face the other day after a verbal confrontation went south regarding Perez’s blog entries on certain members of the Black Eyed Peas. Here’s Perez’s video response, which is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while.

For those of you who don’t know, Perez Hilton runs a gossip blog in which he frequently takes jabs at various celebrities. Intelligently, he also tries to place himself in celebrity limelight by springboarding off the success of his blog. Why confrontations like these don’t happen more frequently with this idiot is beyond me. Despite living in Los Angeles, it’s seriously shocking for me to really see how prissy some of these Hollywood douches are.

Gets better as he warms up. His Zoolander is muy decent.

Stephan Kesting over at Grapplearts.com has released a submission app for the iPhone or iPod touch. The app works in conjunction with the YouTube app to play instructional videos for each move. The videos are very good quality even over-the-air (iPhone) and it’s all shot in HD.

The video without the controls

The launch of the app includes a library of 31 no-gi submissions from the most common positions. 10 of the submissions have supplementary videos explaining the finer points of executing the move properly.

It doesn’t appear that the app’s library is remotely extensible, so there would need to be an application update to get more submissions. The app is $3.99 on the iTunes store.

You’ve probably already heard, but Tapout cofounder Charles “Mask” Lewis passed away early Wednesday in a tragic car accident. Mask was one of those guys who spent every minute of his life trying to make a difference. His dedication and love for MMA has in no small part brought the sport to where it is today.

MMA photographer Tracy Lee has posted on Sherdog that the Tapout crew would like to deem tomorrow Black Friday. If you’ve got Tapout gear, wear it tomorrow in rememberance. Take a photo of yourself and post to this thread.

Also there is a tribute page as well as a phone line (1-888-6-TAPOUT) where you can record a message for family/friends.
