Imperial Stars: Imperial Douchebags

Some musical group called the Imperial Douchebags Stars tried to get some publicity for themselves by causing a traffic jam in Los Angeles.

A music act called Imperial Stars blocked the southbound 101 freeway at Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood Tuesday morning for the urgent act of ... putting on a show.

The move shut down the southbound side of the freeway, according to the California Highway Patrol.
Imperial Stars are my C*nts of the month for October.



Think about this. Traffic is already heavy in Los Angeles. There are a lot of cars. Those cars contain a lot of people. Each and every one of those people has a story. They have errands to run and places to go. They have varying degrees of high blood pressure and tension. Some have more serious health problems. Some are trying to get to work because dammit if they're late the boss is just looking for one reason to fire their ass. Some are trying to get the kids to the daycare center before then heading back onto the freeway to get to work. Maybe one of them is on the way to the doctor or the hospital.

And some m*therf*cking douchebag assh*les decide wouldn't it be a great idea to park our tour bus in the middle of the goddam 101 Freeway for f*ck's sake and get out and start "jammin'".

Were they at least playing live?
It wasn't clear if the trio was actually playing instruments or just grooving to canned tunes, says Los Angeles police Officer Sarah Faden.
I cannot stress this enough: Imperial Stars is a bunch of douchebags. (And points off for the LA Weekly blogger for using the phrase "grooving to canned tunes" in a cheap attempt to cute-ify the crime committed.)

And this from a group that is dedicated to fighting, um, homeless children?
The Imperial Stars are committed to benefiting the displaced children of America through the voice of music. Charitable focused movements in addition to professional sound quality fit for all demographics; vision of mainstream success is directed back into the community voluntarily. Progression is a standard with our audio production, collective marketing strategies and overall business approach, therefore building relationships and doing well by them is the priority at Imperial One Entertainment.
Are you serious? You think that because you have a "righteous cause" you have the right to ruin the days and endanger the safety of literally thousands of people?

(And by the way, that has got to be the most illiterate "mission statement" I've ever read.  "Charitable focused movements in addition to professional sound quality fit for all demographics; vision of mainstream success is directed back into the community voluntarily." Wha--? I hope that is a joke.)

Eff you, douchebags. You're my C*nts of the Month.
