Did you hear that?

That was the sound of Dave Navarro officially selling out. I know what you're thinking: "Didn't he sell out when he agreed to host Rock Star: INXS in the the first place?" "Couldn't marrying Carmen Electra, formerly married to Dennis Rodman, kind of constitute jumping the shark?" "Isn't going from guitaring in Jane's Addiction to guitaring in the Red Hot Chili Peppers (after a failed band/album), who then proceeded to cut the best Jane's Addiction album to released by a band who wasn't Jane's Addiction, selling out?"

But I say no.

I throw Dave many bones, because, let's face it, he's Dave Fucking Navarro, and he both turns me on and scares me in equal parts. So I'm going to throw Dave (okay, and the Peppers) another bone for the prior offenses listed above. A man like Dave Navarro needs to rock and/or roll, in whatever incarnation of whatever band he can join or scrabble together. A man like Dave Navarro, mostly by virtue of his Jane's days, brings much-needed street cred to a show like Rock Star. And, by God, a man like Dave Navarro needs to bang a hot chick with a sweet rack, regardless of the crazy freaks she's been married to before.

That being said, after tonight, I am no longer forgiving Dave his sins. The bone sack is empty, the sweet shop is closed. No more muffin for you, Dave. Tonight, on a very special Rock Star: Supernova (whooo! Tommy Lee! you dirty, magnificent, big-cocked bastard!), the band announced that a very special guest would be joining their 28-city tour (once, of course, they get around to the business of choosing a rock monkey who will never, ever, no matter how many crappy tattoos or bad dye jobs they get, ever be as hot as the sexy product of our neighbor to the north, JD Fortune, who god bless him, prefers to appear in INXS videos shirtless. But I digress). The very special guest? None other than Le Navarro himself. Okay fine, whatever. But here's the catch, see. Dave's not joining Supernova for the tour, he'll be joining the show house band and all the rejects who didn't win when they open for Supernova on the tour, like some demented rocker-freak American Idol tour of losers.

Yeah. Next thing you know they'll be rolling out some sob story about how dude with obviously-made-up-name taught himself to read by using the mnemonic shortcuts, EVGBDF and FACE, on his sheet music. Because, even when it's all about the music, man, it's also about setting a good example for the kid you had out-of-wedlock at 14. Oh, and being able to distinguish the bottle of Jack Daniel's from the bottle of Jim Beam. Because they have standards, godammit.

Gawd, I hope at least Dave got one of those Honda Elements as his consolation prize.
