Is Jeff Barth’s latest ad the best political ad ever or just bizarre? The video which features the South Dakota House seat candidate strolling down a forest trail also showcases a mannequin, a white horse and a rubber chicken, among other strange props and has gone viral.  

Lady Gaga announced on Twitter that she would be canceling her concert in Indonesia, due to threats from the Islamic Defenders Front.

What's trending for May 25, 2012

Earlier this week, the interesting choices for Maxim's "Hot 100 list" were trending on the web, but today it’s AARP’s "21 Sexiest Men Alive Over 50" list that’s making headlines. Why? Because former Utah governor and GOP presidential candidate Jon Huntsman came in at #20 on AARP's list, just behind George Clooney.

Also trending, another bear video has gone viral this morning. In Steamboat Springs, Co., wildlife officials were called in to get a sleeping black bear out of a neighborhood tree. An officer shot the bear with a tranquilizer gun and then gave him a nudge, sending the massive animal tumbling out of the tree. Thankfully, the bear was perfectly fine after his fall and the bear was taken out of the city and into the wild.
