Hiding Your Listening Habits On Social-Networking Sites? You Should Be Ashamed! [Somethin 4 The Weekend]
Today I ran across a neat page on Last.fm outlining the songs and artists that are most likely to be deleted from users' musical histories on the site, which charts its users' listening habits to come up with a bunch of charts that constitute a musical profile that's then shared with the world. While the No. 1 artist who's been deleted from peoples' listening habits isn't all that surprising—"[unknown]," who comes up when people don't fill out their ID3 tags properly before giving songs a spin—a

Apparently Nobody Told Baltimore The Wire Was Over
Even though HBO's gritty drama The Wire has been off the air for months now, show or no show, apparently the city of Baltimore is going right on with the same drug-and-thug plotlines, because Felicia Pearson, the real-life killer who no one could ever forget as chilly hitwoman "Snoop" in the last couple seasons of the series, was just arrested on minor drug charges while police were trying to pick her up for refusing to cooperate as a witness in a murder trial.Once inside the home, police said, they found t

Quote Of The Day
"I don’t have a problem with gay porn. What’s wrong with gay porn? It allows people to encapsulate what their fantasies are. Is that so bad? I think Rodrigo had other issues that were far too severe, which is the reason he’s not with the agency anymore; I’m not going to go into depth about it, but he knows what they are. As far as him having a colorful past? Look, as long as you don’t sodomize children, this is the United States of America—the Fifth Amendment, Larry Flynt, yes! I see nothing wro

Review: The Longshots
Last year I saw Gracie, a movie about a teenage girl who wants to play high-school soccer in the late 1970s, when the game was considered a males-only sport in America, and faces a lot of opposition from her school. I finished my review with the line, "If it were football, would we be agreeing more with Gracie's opponents?" The Longshots gives us the opportunity to consider that question. Can we sympathize with, and cheer on, a girl who wants to succeed as a quarterback in an all-boys' football league? The

What Do We Think of Ed Westwick’s Poetry, Kids?
Ed “Not Gay for Chace Crawford” Westwick has broken the cardinal rule of fame — never, ever, ever share your poetry with the media. (You hear me, Jewel?) Ed shared a poem he wrote (from memory!) with reporters at the launch of Coke’s new aluminum cans. He says he wrote it “at like six in the morning.” Um, something tells me the kind of coke going into Ed’s system doesn’t come in an aluminum can. Because, like, who the hell in their right mind just recites their own

Poll: Which Baby Name Brings the Most Crazy?
We're nervous about letting Jason Lee roam free with the baby-naming book looking for a swell moniker for his new baby girl, after he named his son Pilot Inspektor. And while we know that the name of Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale's newborn, Zuma Nesta Rock, has cool pop-cultural resonance, it still sounds more like the name of a Police CD than an offspring. Are these the kookiest celeb kid names ever, or are there others more unworthy? Take the poll below or leave us a comment to let us know how you fee

The Exhibitionist : 3 Defenses for 3-D Films
Filed under: Animation, Music & Musicals, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Exhibition, ColumnsAs an opinionated cinephile, Roger Ebert has every right to dislike 3-D movies. And recently, on his blog, Roger Ebert's Journal, he wrote about such disfavor. Basically, in response to accidentally missing the press screening for the new animated 3-D flick Fly Me to the Moon, he admits that, because of a certain prejudice against the format, he likely wouldn't have enjoyed the movie anyway. My issue here is not to attack

When Stars Attack: Britney Spears Rains Blows
The love/hate relationship celebrities have with the paparazzi, their adoring fans and the public in general is no more apparent than when they pick up their fists and take a swing at somebody. And because they're famous, 9 times out of 10, there's someone standing there with a camera, memorializing that infamous moment in time. That's probably because most of the time, the person getting attacked is the one carrying the camera. Comes with the territory. Here's a collection of some of our featherweig

Bloc Party offers download months before CD release
LONDON (Billboard) - Bloc Party fans expecting a routine Web chat with their heroes got more than they bargained for August 18, when the U.K. alt-rock band announced that its new album, "Intimacy," would be available for download in just 60 hours' time. "They were very freaked out. It was really funny," frontman Kele Okereke said. Bloc Party's London-based independent label, Wichita Recordings, could not be reached for comment, but Okereke joked that the company's executives had a similar in

Jennifer Lopez Lands At United Talent
The actress/singer/businesswoman has spent time at every major Hollywood talent agency, sometimes more than once. But I'm told that UTA board member Tracey Jacobs has just signed J-Lo in film and television with the focus on restarting her dormant acting career (after she had twins). J-Lo is prepping to start two films in the fall: one is Love And Other Impossible Pursuits directed by Don Roos that Marc Platt is producing along with Lopez's production company Nuyorican (with partner Simon Fields).

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Singer and songwriter Gwen Stefani gave birth to a boy named Zuma on Thursday in Los Angeles, her second child with husband Gavin Rossdale, her spokesman said. Stefani and her baby are "happy and healthy" following the birth at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, publicist Dave Tomberlin said in a statement.

Did Hayden Panettiere & Lindsay Lohan Have Lesbian New Years Sex?
Photo Credit: INFphoto.comPlease excuse this Friday Flashback coming so late in the day...These were snapped at a wild New Year’s Eve party late last December in Capri, Italy. Everyone knows that Lindsay Lohan swings both ways & it’s pretty obvious that when you put some alcohol inside a wild, barely legal midget, she’ll be down for pretty much anything. So with all that in hand, we’d have to say that at the minimum, Lindsay Lohan & Hayden Panettiere scissored until

Jesse Metcalfe Will Play For Food
It's almost as if Jesse Metcalfe sad down and though to himself how he could make himself appear more annoying than he already does and hit upon the on-target idea of picking up an acoustic guitar. No, he's not serenading unwitting freshman girls on the quad with the first three chords of every Led Zeppelin and Dave Matthews Band song you've ever heard, he's at the opening of the John Varvatos Shop at Fred Segal. He was there with young actor Taylor Lautner who looks remarkably like a younger Jesse Metca

A Pennsylvania woman can go ahead and sue ... [Lawsuits]
A Pennsylvania woman can go ahead and sue Universal Music Corp. for making YouTube take down a 29-second clip of her baby dancing to Prince's "Let's Go Crazy," according to a judge in San Jose, Calif. The judge said that Universal, which controls the publishing rights to the Purple One's catalog, needs to decide whether or not the snippet fell under the "fair use" guidelines, although given the company's past history of negotiating with the Internet I'm going to guess their stance is "the only fair use is u

Lindsay Lohan’s Father Wants To Fight Kevin Federline For Charity
The father of actress Lindsay Lohan wants the fight to happen so that it can help raise funds for some undisclosed cancer charity on Long Island. “Everyone wants me to fight K-fed because he’s a notorious celebrity dad and so am I. It’s for charity,” he told OK! Magazine. “It’s serious boxing. You have to go get a trainer. I have to register with the Mature Boxing Association.” Problem is, Federline hasn’t even been approached yet to participate. And what too
