Watch: Mariah Carey, ‘Oh Santa!’

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 02:01 PM PDT

Earlier today we got a sneak peek at the music video for Mariah Carey‘s new Xmas single Oh Santa!, the first off her second Xmas album titled Merry Christmas II You (which is availalbe for sale NOW) and right now we get to check out the music video in full:


Mariah looks good, y’all. I’m not sure when this video was shot but she looks much slimmer and less pregs than she is lookin’ these days. I don’t know if Mimi jumped her booty into a DeLorean and traveled back in time to film this video but she looks hot no matter what. I love the vid, I love the song … but I’m still not ready for Xmas just yet.

Watch: Ryan Adams & Mandy Moore Perform ‘Oh My Sweet Carolina’

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 01:49 PM PDT

Ryan Adams performed at a benefit concert for 826LA (which is a non-profit writing and tutoring center here in LA) recently and last weekend he did a bit of rehearsing with a new band … that included his wife Mandy Moore on vocals. As luck would have it, an industrious person in the auditorium where the rehearsal took place managed to record Ryan and Mandy performing his song Oh My Sweet Carolina together on stage:


I’m not sure if Mandy performed with Ryan during the actual performance but they sounded pretty fantastic together in this rehearsal video. As far as I know, Ryan and Mandy have never performed live together before … so this video is quite a treat. Check it out in full, after the jump …


Ryan Adams is one of my all-time fave male singers … he sounds great in pretty much any setting, whether it be a rehearsal or a live concert. I was pretty surprised when he and former pop star Mandy Moore got hitched back in March 2009 but they have been very happy together for the past year and it sounds like they will be making beautiful music together for many years to come. I hope Ryan and Mandy continue to perform together … they sound great!

Watch: ‘Conan O’Brien Presents: SHOW ZERO!’

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 01:30 PM PDT

We are still 6 days away from the premiere of Conan O’Brien‘s new late night talk show Conan on TBS but rabid Coco fans are dying to know what Conan‘s new show is going to be like. Well, Conan decided to show us … by putting together a hastily shot 5 minute version of his show which he is calling Show Zero:


In the span of just a few minutes, Conan runs thru the template of an entire episode of his new talk show as only Coco can do. From monologue, to comedy bits, to guest interviews and even a little Andy Richter thrown in, Show Zero gives us a pretty good feel for what we can expect when Conan debuts next Monday. After the jump, check out Conan: Show Zero


OMG … brilliant. I love that he even put together a studio audience … he is a clever man, that Conan O’Brien. I also love that he got Diet Coke to pay him some $$$ to sponsor this fun clip. I mean, yeah, Conan‘s new show looks like it’s gonna follow the format of most late night talk shows … nonetheless, it’s gonna be great having him back on the air.

Plans Are In The Works For A Sequel To ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 01:09 PM PDT

Back in April of 2009, Robert Zemeckis broke the news that he was planning a sequel film to the hit 1988 animated film Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Since then, there has been no word at all on sequel plans and it was starting to feel as if Roger Rabbit 2 had been canceled. But today we learn from Zemeckis himself that a script by original Roger Rabbit screenwriters Jeffrey Price and Peter S. Seaman is still being written and that Who Framed Roger Rabbit 2 is still deffo on the way:

MTV News caught up with Zemeckis this week at a red-carpet event celebrating the 25th anniversary of “Back to the Future” … [and] we asked the director whether Price and Seaman were still typing away at that script, to which he replied: “That is correct, that is true. They’re slow,” he laughed. So the screenplay isn’t finished yet… but has Zemeckis read any of it? “It’s great,” he said, nodding his head enthusiastically. “Oh, it’s going to be great. I think it’s going to be great.”

HMMMM … news of this planned sequel definitely falls into the “it could be really awesome or it could be really terrible” category. Who Framed Roger Rabbit blew people’s minds when it was released back in 1988 because of the seamless way it integrated animation and live action. Considering the huge advancements in animation made since then, a sequel could be really cool. Then again, as with any sequel based on a hugely successful classic film, if they don’t do it right … it could be a horrible cinematic travesty. After the jump, check out video of Zemeckis confirming for MTV News that yes, indeed, a script for Who Framed Roger Rabbit 2 is on the way …


I dunno … my gut tells me to be worried but … Zemeckis is a genius and he wouldn’t put out a crappy sequel, would he? I guess we have a lot of time to digest this news, it’s been over a year since this planned sequel was even mentioned and the script isn’t even completed yet. If Roger Rabbit 2 actually gets made, we won’t be seeing it for quite some time now. What do y’all think … would YOU like to see a big screen sequel to Who Framed Roger Rabbit?

Mariah Carey Does ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 12:47 PM PDT

Earlier today we saw video of Willow Smith‘s appearance on today’s episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show and right now we get to see video from Ellen‘s other guest on today’s show. Mariah Carey not only appears on today’s ep of The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote her new album in stores today, Merry Christmas II You, but also to talk about her new pregnancy! As you may recall, the last time Mimi was on Ellen, she boldly drank champagne on the air to prove that she wasn’t pregnant then … this time, Ellen offered her another bubbly non-alcoholic drink to toast her happy news:


In this interview clip, Mariah reiterates to Ellen that she does NOT want to know the gender of her baby … and even if the did, she would not impose strict gender standards (pink if it’s a girl, blue if it’s a boy) on her baby … which is very surprising, actually. We all know what a girly girl Mariah Carey is … so I find it very interesting that she is planning not to impose her girliness on her baby if it turns out to be a girl. After the jump, check out a short preview clip of Mimi‘s interview which will air today in full on The Ellen DeGeneres Show


HMMM … I’m thinkin’ this baby is going bring BIG changes in Mariah Carey, y’all. We all know that motherhood changes most women in drastic ways … I’m thinkin’ Mimi might be one of those women. Now I’m not saying she’s gonna stop wearing all her peek-a-boo, 2 sizes too small outfits but … at the very least, her demeanor could change significantly. I can’t wait to see Mariah Carey as a mother. Happy Days are on the way!

The Skeleton Crew

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 12:03 PM PDT

Last night I met up with Tamar, Ollie, Caleb and Rob at Olvera Street in downtown LA so that we could all partake of the annual Day of the Dead celebration together. Altho today is the actual Day of the Dead (El Dia de los Muertos), participants march in the parade and dance in the celebration on the nights leading up to and including November 2. Last year I got my face painted in fun skull make-up, this year I decided to go the paper mask route:


After we ate a sumptuous meal at El Paseo, we watched as the parade marched by and marveled at the beautiful pageantry, amazing costumes and very cool make-up. After the jump, check out some of the photos that me and my friends snapped last night at the Olvera Street Dia De Los Muertos Celebration


Tam and Caleb snapped these amazing pics:


And you can click HERE to see the photos that Rob snapped last night. We all had a lot of fun … if you live here in LA I strongly urge you to check out this amazing festival. Tonight is the last night of the celebration so you have one more chance to check it out … well, at least until next year.

No big plans for today … David and I will be gettin’ our vote on shortly and then will likely spend the rest of the day cleaning up our place which is in shambles since the Hallowe’en weekend. There are costume bits everywhere … ugh.

OH and one more thing … let’s send our heartiest congratulations to Pink readers Genae and Bryan because they are the lucky winners of the Glee: The Music – The Rocky Horror Glee Show CD giveaway! Here are their winning entries:


Their entries were randomly chosen from all the photos submitted. Thank you all so much for sending in your photos and playing along.

First Look: Michael Jackson’s Children On ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 10:25 AM PDT

Last month we got our first look at Oprah Winfrey with the Jackson family in their Encino, CA home as she interviewed them for an upcoming episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show. A few days later, it was reported that Oprah would also be interviewing Michael Jackson‘s childrenPrince Michael Joseph, Paris Michael Katherine and Prince Michael Joseph, II aka Blanket — for her show. Today we get our first look a promo photo of Oprah with MJ‘s children as she interviewed them for next Monday November 8′s episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show:

Relaxed, smiling and playful – that’s the image of Michael Jackson’s three children captured in a candid photo taken during Oprah Winfrey’s visit to the Jacksons’ Encino, Calif., home last month. Prince, 13, and Paris, 12, are seen smiling as Paris reaches out to Blanket, 8, who is curled up in a lawn chair in the backyard of the home, while Winfrey and the children’s grandparents, Katherine and Joe Jackson, are seated across the table. The talk-show host was there to interview Katherine about Michael’s childhood, his career, his children and his legacy a year and a half after the pop legend’s untimely death at age 50.

While there are many people (me included) who are horribly curious to see the Jackson children interviewed, at least one person is NOT pleased that Oprah sat down to interview the kids in the first place. Randy Jackson has spoken out publicly to voice his displeasure with the interview, stating that MJ would NEVER have allowed his children to be interviewed on TV … not even by Oprah. While that claim is debatable, it is very true that MJ fiercely guarded his children’s privacy and it is unlikely that he would be totally cool with putting his kids on TV like this. Still, the interview has been filmed and is scheduled to air next Monday. Will you be tuning in?

Willow Smith, the daughter of Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith who is burnin’ up the airwaves with her hot debut single Whip My Hair, makes her national television debut today on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

After the jump, check out a short preview video of Willow‘s appearance on Ellen AND WATCH VIDEO of Willow performing her hit song Whip My Hair LIVE! …

‘Tron: Legacy’ Releases A New Kevin Flynn Poster

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 09:48 AM PDT

Last month got to check out a cool poster for Tron: Legacy which pays homage to the original poster artwork released back in 1980 for the first Tron film. Today we get to check out a new poster for the sequel film which features Jeff Bridges reprising the role of Kevin Flynn — 30 years later:


This latest poster is the first in a 3-part series of posters for Tron: Legacy which are all set to be released this week. I have to say, I’m very impressed with how great Bridges looks not only in this poster (hi, booty) but also in the promo trailers that have been released thus far. I’m really looking forward to seeing the other posters in this series but I’m DYING to see the film itself. Tron: Legacy won’t open in theaters until next month … but considering how fast the year has been flying by thus far, it won’t be long until we’ll all be able to see Tron 2 on the big screen.

Kanye West’s New Album ‘My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy’ Gets New Artwork

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 08:57 AM PDT

Last month we got our first look at the allegedly “banned” album artwork for Kanye West‘s new album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and today we learn that that artwork has been replaced! Yes, folks, it would appear that Kanye was “banned” after all. As you may recall, the original art featured a painting of a naked Kanye with a naked female winged creature straddling his leg … that art has been replaced with this new artwork:


According to Amazon, the listing for Kanye‘s album, due out on November 22, has been updated with this new album art and the following tracklisting:

01. Dark Fantasy
02. Gorgeous feat. KiD CuDi & Raekwon
03. POWER
04. All Of The Lights (Interlude)
05. All Of The Lights
06. Monster feat. JAY-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj & Bon Iver
07. So Appalled feat. JAY-Z, Pusha T, Prynce Cy Hi, Swizz Beatz & The RZA
08. Devil In A New Dress feat. Rick Ross
09. Runaway feat. Pusha T
10. Hell Of A Life
11. Blame Game feat. John Legend
12. Lost In The World
13. Who Will Survive In America

But … never fear ye fans of the original album artwork, the previous artwork has not been ditched altogether. There will be a DELUXE version of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy and that version of the album will feature the original controversial album art. And that, my friends, is how Kanye West can have his cake and eat it too.

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 08:30 AM PDT

Mariah Carey, who announced to the world last week that she is PREGS with her first child, has released her second Xmas album Merry Christmas II You TODAY and in conjunction will be releasing the music video for her first single Oh Santa! later in the day.

Britney Spears, Sarah Michelle Gellar & Madonna’s Kiddies Go Trick-Or-Treating

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 08:04 AM PDT

Yesterday we got to see a whole bunch of celebs dressed up in their Hallowe’en costumes over the weekend and right now we get to see one more batch of photos to wrap up Hallowe’en 2010 once and for all. Britney Spears‘s sons Sean Preston (as Iron Man) and Jayden James (as Spider-Man villain Venom) did their trick-or-treating here in SoCal with their father Kevin Federline and his ladyfriend Victoria Prince (who both dressed as slobs). Sarah Michelle Gellar took her little Charlotte Grace (dressed as Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz) out for tricks-or-treats and Madonna (in a Barack Obama mask) took her little girl Chifundo Mercy Grace (also as Dorothy) out as well … behold:


As you can see, Maddy‘s eldest daughter Lourdes Maria joined in on the trick-or-treating fun dressed as one of the Cherrio cheerleaders from Glee. I’m certain there are still many more photos out there but, alas, Hallowe’en 2010 is officially dunzo. Still, I couldn’t help but post these last few photos out of sheer cuteness. Enjoy.

Demi Lovato Checks Into Rehab

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 07:16 AM PDT

Another day, another celeb checks into rehab … but the latest celeb to do so is a bit of a surprise. Demi Lovato, the cute little Disney star who rose to fame in the wake of Miley Cyrus‘s success on Hannah Montana, has abruptly quit her international concert tour with The Jonas Brothers to check herself into rehab for physical and emotional issues. According to TMZ, Demi is not seeking help for substance abuse … she merely felt the need to get help after she was involved in a “physical altercation” with a female member of her tour:

Disney star Demi Lovato has bailed on an international concert tour with the Jonas Brothers — and has checked into a treatment center to seek help for “emotional and physical issues” … TMZ has confirmed through the singer’s rep. n a statement to TMZ, the 18-year-old singer’s rep says, “Demi Lovato left her tour early this weekend in order to seek medical treatment for emotional and physical issues she has dealt with for some time.” We’re told Demi is not seeking treatment for drug use. The statement continues, “Demi has decided to take personal responsibility for her actions and seek help. She is doing just that.” The rep concludes, “[Demi] regrets not being able to finish her tour, but is looking forward to getting back to work in the near future.” Sources close to Lovato tell us the singer was in a physical altercation with a female member of her tour recently … which was a “catalyst” in her decision to seek professional help.

It sounds to me like Demi might have some serious emotional issues to deal with … which is kinda scary when you consider how young she is (the girl just turned 18 back in August). People magazine are quoting a source “close to Lovato‘s family” who said:

“She was bullied in school. She fought through eating disorders and has struggled with cutting. … Demi is taking control by getting help.”

So maybe Demi and her female tourmate were engaging in some sort of self-harming behavior? Or maybe it was a physical fight? So sad! Whatever went down between Demi and the other girl, it must’ve been very serious … for an international star to voluntarily check herself into rehab and then tell the world about it, whatever went down had to have been pretty significant. I’m actually more surprised that this rehab story involves Demi Lovato at all. If you were to ask me which of these 3 young Disney pop stars would be the one to go to rehab out of Miley Cyrus, Selina Gomez and Demi Lovato … well, let me just say Demi‘s name would not be the name I’d pick. Here’s hoping the girl gets the help that she needs.
