As thrilling as it is to have So You Think You Can Dance back in all its original glory, the Fox series’ surprising Season 14 renewal came with a frustrating caveat: We’re only treated to one hour of Cat Deeley-hosted Dance goodness every week, instead of the three or four hours that previous summers offered up. (Damn you, practical TV execs!)
What’s more, I’m not sure Sytycd is using its precious hour the right way. Monday’s episode, which wrapped up the Los Angeles auditions, dedicated a whole segment to performers of the “triple-jointed” style — that is,...

Adrienne Bailon and the Kardashian sisters may have engaged in some nasty verbal ping-pong over the summer, but the former Cheetah Girl insists she holds no grudge against the famous reality family. "I never meant any harm with anything I said," Bailon told me at Rihanna's Diamond Ball, also attended by Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner. The Real co-host went on to gush, "They're great girls." The feud began when Bailon told Latina magazine in July that she thought her reputation was hurt by being associated with the Kardashians after dating Rob Kardashian. "To be stuck with that Kardashian label, that was so hurtful to me and to my career," the "Big Spender"...

Howard Stern delivered the eulogy at Joan Rivers’ funeral on Sunday, a star-studded event that lived up to her Hollywood funeral instructions.
Joan Rivers Memorial Service A Hollywood Affair
Rivers, a groundbreaking comedian and celebrity fashion critic extraordinaire, wrote in her 2012 book I Hate Everyone… Starting with Me that she wanted her funeral to be a full red-carpet event. “I want my funeral to be a big showbiz affair with lights, cameras, action… I want Craft services, I want paparazzi and I want publicists making a scene! I want it to be Hollywood all the way,” she wrote.
To honor her request, Rivers’ funeral reportedly began with a performance of “Hey, Big Spender” by the New York City Gay Men’s Chorus. Broadway was a bit of a theme throughout the service, with musical interludes from Audra McDonald and Hugh Jackman and a grand finale courtesy of the New York...

“I want my funeral to be a huge showbiz affair with lights, cameras, action," Joan Rivers wrote in her 2012 book "I Hate Everyone...Starting With Me." Well, she certainly got her wish. The legendary comic was laid to rest on Sunday in New York City with hundreds of guests in attendance, including such famous friends as Rosie O'Donnell, Kathy Griffin, Whoopi Goldberg, Sarah Jessica Parker and husband Matthew Broderick, David Letterman, Howard Stern, Charlie Rose, Diane Sawyer and Barbara Walters (photos below). Stern gave the eulogy at Manhattan's Temple Emanu-El while Hugh Jackman, Broadway star Audra McDonald and the New York City Gay Men's Chorus performed for the mourners, the latter putting forth renditions of such standards as “What a Wonderful World,” “There Is Nothing Like a Dame” and “Big Spender," according to the New York Times. Those who spoke at the memorial included Rivers' daughter Melissa Rivers, TV reporter...

Most people today would likely be shocked to think that in 1972, The Godfather went into the Oscars anything but a sure bet for Best Picture. Aside from Casablanca and Citizen Kane it is recognized as the greatest American film of all time and in hind sight most people forget that not only was it tied for nominations in 1972, but Coppola lost Best Director.
Because hindsight is anything but 20/20 when popular consensus takes over, the narrative of the Hollywood Renaissance is one of Scorsese, Spielberg and Lucas getting snubbed for Taxi Driver, Jaws, Close Encounters, and Star Wars. But looking at the 1970s and the race for Best Director, what you see instead is two directors fighting it out for director of the decade, each earning three nominations.
Obviously one of them is Francis Ford Coppola. With both Godfathers, The Conversation, and, Apocalypse Now most people would say that he won that fight.

Party Girl, showing in the Un Certain Regard section, is unusual for a number of reasons, primarily because it’s a three-hander. Marie Amachoukeli, Claire Burger and Samuel Theis are the triumvirate behind this tale of Angelique (Angélique Litzenburger), the pension-age party girl of the title, who has shaken her booty in just about every club in town and is now a hostess.
The film is set in a German border town. At one point a man hails a cab, saying “To France!” and there is something of a frontier town feel to the place. There seem to be fewer rules, for one thing: people smoke in bars and restaurants, seat-belts are optional and the rules of the road don’t seem to apply here. Yet rather than any western, the film shares more with Sweet Charity: when we enter the cabaret club for the first time it is reminiscent of the “Hey,...

Bonnie Langford has become the latest celebrity to leave Dancing on Ice All-Stars.
Langford follows in the footsteps of Zaraah Abrahams, who exited the ITV competition at the end of last Sunday's (January 26) live show.
Langford and partner Andrei Lipanov had to battle it out in the skate-off with Sam Attwater and Vicky Ogden to decide who remained in the show.
Duel winners Kyran Bracken, Hayley Tamaddon, Ray Quinn and Gareth Gates were earlier given immunity from elimination.
Attwater performed to 'Don't Stop the Music' by Jamie Cullum in the skate-off, while Langford performed to 'Big Spender' in a bid to stay in the competition.
Judges Karen Barber, Ashley Roberts and Jason Gardiner all voted to save Attwater, while head judge Robin Cousins said he would have done the same.
