Beyoncé Gets Two Spots On MTV’s Top Ten Women List
Yes, you read it right. On MTV News‘ Top Ten Women of the Year List, our favorite chick got two spots: one for Beyoncé and one for Sasha Fierce.  Beyoncé was put at #10 on the list for finishing her much awaited double disc album, “I Am…Sasha Fierce” and for starring in the new film “Cadillac Records” as musical legend Etta James.  She also got married to one heck of a man, Jay-Z and was praised by PETA for her non-fur outfits.  Her song, “Single La

Review: Johnny Winter wows staid audience
Working through a songbook heavy on blues classics with some rock radio staples thrown in, Johnny Winter showed he can still crank out his trademark fast licks. And probably still faster than most. Not to say it didn't take Winter, a native Texan whom the late Muddy Waters often called his "son," a while to warm up Thursday night for a near capacity crowd at the stuffy Jeanné Wagner Theatre. However, when he and his band lifted off during their fifth song -- Ray Charles slow blues "Black...

Natali's Creature Feature Splice Does Sitges
It didn't quite make it to the Toronto International Film Festival like writer-director Vincenzo Natali had hoped it would (apparently there's a story behind it having to do with North American distribution), but Splice , the upcoming creature feature shepherded by Guillermo del Toro, is set to play to Sitges Film Festival audiences. It's the 42nd year for the event which runs October 1-12. Splice , starring Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley, was picked up by Senator Distribution, however, the...

Elsa Pataky is with Adrien Brody
I can only imagine what the cameraman was thinking when Adrien Brody pointed him out to girlfriend Elsa Pataky. “Can they see me? No way can they see me. I’m hidden so well in this tree. It looks like they can see me though. Is he pointing right at me? Oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit, oh shit!” Trivia: Elsa Pataky speaks Spanish, French English, Romanian and Italian and her last name in Hungarian means “someone who lived near a creek.” Related News

'We kinda' broke his heart': Ben Stiller on Budd Schulberg and 'Sammy'
One of the great Hollywood mysteries of recent vintage, right up there with how Adrien Brody ever won an Oscar and why Universal Pictures thought it should spend $100 million on a hapless comedy like "Land of the Lost," is whatever happened to Ben Stiller's decade-long crusade to bring Budd Schulberg's fabled "What Makes Sammy Run" to the big screen. Published in 1941, it was one of the first great Hollywood novels, a scathing indictment of a sleazy young...
