The trailer for the ‘Twilight’ sequel ‘New Moon’ premiered at tonight’s MTV Movie Awards. It was nice to see the Twilight saga continue, but I wasn’t as excited as some. I know setting up the story is part of it, but I’m not sure 30 seconds should’ve been devoted to telling us, then reminding us, then [...]

Kate Gosselin: The ‘Revullet’

Kate Gosselin of TLC’s “Jon & Kate Plus 8″ told Entertainment Weekly “everybody wants” her hair and her hairstylist is getting cross-country calls. I’m surprised it’s taken this long for people to realize this hair-don’t exists. This atrocity has been going on since the beginning, it seems like, and has just spiraled (spiked, rather) [...]

CBS’s thriller “Harper’s Island” moved to its new time tonight at 8 p.m. central, quite possibly to gain more viewers. The mini-series has only aired four episodes, but I still only know three of the characters and hadn’t made a point to remember them until tonight’s episode. Intially, I thought it would be an interesting [...]

The Killers‘ frontman Brandon Flowers told NME he’s ready to knock bands like Led Zeppelin and Nirvana off of their pedestals. The Las Vegas four-piece has been better accepted in the UK than their homeland, Flowers said. In the US, people are “still so obsessed with Led Zeppelin and Nirvana.” ”There are a lot of [...]

‘Icky Muck’ Sticks in Head

Muck Sticky’s song “The Icky Muck” is one of the most annoyingly catchy songs, and has been stuck in my head all day. A few days ago I saw it on MTV’s morning segment of music videos (the only time they ever play them, I think). The song is just so ridiculous and cringe-worthy, but [...]

“Slumdog Millionaire” child actors Rubina Ali and Azharuddin Mohammed are still stuck in real-life slums, living in shacks along with rats and scorpions, despite having starred in an Oscar-winning movie. First, Rubina’s dad tried to sell her, saying that the family hadn’t received anything from the “Slumdog” film. But the filmmakers say they’ve been helping [...]

British quintent The Horrors have release their newest single “Who Can Say” from their upcoming second album Primary Colours. The video kind of reminds me of Sid Vicious’s rendition of “My Way,” which is probably just because there’s a stage, and frontman Faris “Rotter” Badwan is wearing a white coat and black pants. Anyway, this [...]

VH1′s show about seasonal romance “Daisy of Love” premiered tonight, featuring “Rock of Love 2″ reject Daisy de la Hoya. As with all the other “love” shows on VH1, Daisy’s love quest isn’t any different. In fact, it’s almost like watching another “Rock of Love,” but this time Bret Michaels has implants and lip injections.

Entertainment Tonight’s third segment of behind-the-scenes look at “Twilight” sequel, “New Moon,” reveals three not-so-secret things about the film. 1. More Edward – Duh. With the Edward-mania that’s been going on since the first movie, it’s only obvious that the filmmakers would put Robert Pattinson, the actor who plays Edward, in the film more than [...]
