Were the 'Idol' Top 6 up to par?Unfortunately, I missed this week's "moment" when James rocked it on “Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow” Color me frustrated, but what parts of the show I did see were pretty good. Carole King has a treasure trove of hits, and the Top 6 delivered well. The folks pictured above seemed - for the most part - to have been thrilled with the evening. So with such strong performances, who is going home Thursday night? Let us hear it. 'Idol' Top 6 sing songs of Carole King9:26 p.m. - James and Jacob want to take it to church with "Something Tells Me I'm Into Something Good." They appear to be trying to outscreech each other. They serenade Jennifer a bit, but it wasn't great. Sorry J & J, but I didn't dig it. FULL POST Jennifer Lopez, Jeremy Renner join 'Ice Age 4'She may have helped heat up "American Idol," but Jennifer Lopez's career is about to get a little colder. The singer/actress/entrepreneur has just signed on for a role in "Ice Age 4: Continental Drift." According to the Hollywood Reporter, Lopez will play Shira, a sabre-toothed tiger who melts the heart of fellow sabre-tooth Diego (Dennis Leary). Besides Lopez, Jeremy Renner has signed on as master of the high seas Gutt, and Wanda Sykes, Drake and Aziz Ansari will also lend their voices to the animated film. Get ready with your picks for 'Idol' Top 6Look at these crazy kids! We are down to the "American Idol" Top 6, and the theme this week is all about Carole King. Yep, you read that right: Carole King. What do you want to bet that most of our Top 6 have never even heard of her? Beyonce releases video to battle childhood obesityBeyonce wants you to "Move Your Body." The singer has remixed her song "Get Me Bodied" as part of First Lady Michelle Obama's "Let's Move" campaign. The campaign was developed to deal with the epidemic of childhood obesity with the goal of ending it within a generation. Beyonce reminded us a bit of Olivia Newton John back in the day as Mrs. Jay-Z gets physical with a group of youngsters in a school cafeteria. Instead of John's colorful leg warmers, Beyonce rocks bright green knee high socks while she leads the kids through an exercise/dance routine. Check out the video:
Darren Criss: 'Glee' bully Karofsky is hilariousHe may bully Kurt and Blaine on "Glee," but in real life, Karofsky (Max Adler) is just a big old softie. "Any time I have a scene with Max I can't keep a straight face," Darren Criss, who plays Dalton Academy Warbler Blaine, tells Vulture. "It's impossible." But Adler isn't the only cutup on set. Criss says that Dot Jones, who plays the imposing Coach Beiste, is also a laugh riot. Roger Ebert wins New Yorker caption contestA big thumbs up to Roger Ebert—the film critic has finally won the cartoon-caption contest in the New Yorker. "I have entered the New Yorker’s cartoon caption contest almost weekly virtually since it began and have never even been a finalist," Ebert noted on his Chicago Sun-Times blog two years ago. "It's not that I think my cartoon captions are better than anyone else's, although some weeks, understandably, I do," the film critic said. "It's that just once I want to see one of my damn captions in the magazine that publishes the best cartoons in the world. Is that too much to ask?" J.Lo and Marc Anthony team up for 'Q'Viva!'It's official: Jennifer Lopez is indeed working on a new reality show. The "American Idol" judge and her husband, singer Marc Anthony, have linked up with "Idol's" creator for a new project. "Q’Viva! The Chosen" will feature the superstar couple traveling to various regions of the Americas over the course of three months in search of performers for "the ultimate live show celebrating Latin music, artistry and dance." Katie Holmes settles with Star MagazineStar Magazine has issued an apology to Katie Holmes because of a recent headline about the actress. The actress had filed a multi-million lawsuit against the publication after it recently published an article titled “ADDICTION NIGHTMARE – Katie DRUG SHOCKER! – The Real Reason She Can’t Leave Tom.” The magazine announces the apology on the cover of its most recent issue. 'Showbiz Tonight' Flashpoint: Did Trump just get a reality check?
Well, Donald Trump got what he wanted. Today the White House released President Obama’s original birth certificate. Trump claims he was able to force President Obama into doing this – and he’s proud of it. But who comes out on top here? Did the President finally put Trump in check for all his outrageous claims? Or does this give Trump more power? I think Trump’s arrogance and ego are out of control. Everyone always complains about spin from politicians. But Trump has become the “spin master” and should be held accountable. What do you think? Post below. |
