Another notable piece came from Devendra Banhart, who talks about finding a photo of a woman standing in a bathtub and "wearing only makeup and a slew of gangsta tattoos." Pop Candy has Banhart's tale in full--and no, it wasn't a picture of Natalie Portman. [Exclusive: Read Devendra Banhart's funny 'Found' story]
