Good evening, and welcome to The Voice semi-final liveblog.

Joan Rivers Adds More to Whitney Houston Joke About Houston Crawling with Bugs
16 hours ago | National Ledger | See recent National Ledger news »
Joan Rivers believes it isn't too soon to joke about Whitney Houston in her grave. In her book, “I Hate Everyone… Starting With Me,” it includes a section on travel, in which Rivers writes: "I hate Houston. It’s crawling with bugs. Oh, wait, that’s Whitney Houston; I’m sorry, my bad." Some complained it was too soon, but if you think Joan is backing off because of a little criticism, she won't. She is adding more. A report notes that the 78-year-old Brooklyn native "delivered her A-game for 70 minutes Tuesday night to an estimated crowd of 1,600 at the Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts." Some of the jokes: Rivers made fun of Goldie Hawn still thinking she's a hottie (“Do you believe I have a grownup daughter?” “Yes!”); Dick Clark not retiring from “New Year's Rockin' Eve” after suffering a stroke (After mocking Clark's slurred speech, Rivers said “Dick. »

Jessica Sanchez Hopes to Burst 'Idol' 'Bubble'
24 May 2012 5:16 PM, PDT | Entertainment Tonight | See recent Entertainment Tonight news »
As finalists of seasons past have proven, Grammy winners can be born even if you're not voted the American Idol champ. Jessica Sanchez has nothing to be ashamed of for her triumphant run on the show and surely has a bright future to look forward to in the spotlight.
The morning after her defeat, Jessica was complacent and optimistic while speaking with ETonline. "Jennifer Hudson came in 7th place and she's one of the biggest ones. I have so much respect for her. Hopefully I am one of those people," the runner-up said.
Video: Sanchez Eager to Start Her Career after 'Idol'
One of the first things on Jessica's agenda, besides celebrating with family, is to find a song that is a good fit for her debut single. She didn't mesh well with Change Nothing, the lyrics Jimmy Iovine selected for her. "Now I have time and variety and I can choose and look through »

Watch: Dance Music Gets Classy

Shutter shades, t-shirts, jeans and sneaks: Blame Lmfao, but our go-to dance-party outfits aren't what they used to be.
In his new music video for "Golden Era," dance music legend David Morales looks to turn back the clock to a time when a night out meant looking good and engaging in some very dignified fun.
"I decided to do a video for 'Golden Era' because the song lends itself to a story," Morales told HuffPost Entertainment. "I wanted to get away from doing a traditional 'dance' music video -- it's why I decided to go with a film directer as opposed to a typical video director. I wanted the video to have a movie vibe to it."
The video for the single was directed by Victor Buhler, a filmmaker perhaps best known for 2005's "Rikers High," a documentary which took viewers inside the school at New York's infamous Riker's Island prison. »

Omari Hardwick Sparkle On-Set Interview
24 May 2012 10:20 AM, PDT | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »
In visiting the set of Sparkle, the music-centered film set in 1960s Detroit, one of the more interesting conversations took place with Omari Hardwick. The actor plays Levi, a member of the church’s choir and friend to the sisters who start a girl group similar to The Supremes. Hardwick, who’s previously been seen in Kick-Ass, The A-Team, and For Colored Girls, has a fascinating backstory, having almost played for the San Diego Chargers and being an active poet. In my conversation along with other journalists on set in November, Hardwick generously discusses how he prepares as an actor, the challenges in doing press for films, and how he bonded with his fellow cast mates. Speaking before her death, he comments on working with Whitney Houston, giving light to a less-readily seen side of her, while speaking about her with great reverie. Our time spent with Hardwick was quite »

Who Won American Idol 2012, Tonight's Winner Revealed - Phillip Phillips or Jessica Sanchez?
23 May 2012 6:23 PM, PDT | National Ledger | See recent National Ledger news »
Who won on tonight's American idol (5-23-2012)? The show is live and two singers remain on the show, Phillip Phillips and Jessica Sanchez. Both singers performed last night, but the overall consensus seems to be that it will be a massive upset if Jessica defeats Phillip. Jessica was voted off the show by viewers in week seven, however the judges immediately stepped in and used the judges save to spare her going home several weeks ago. She stayed until the finals and now she has the opportunity to win American idol, but many believe she has very little chance. MTV has a headline, "Phillip Phillips Has 'American Idol' In The Bag, Experts Say." USA Today follows that buzz kill for Sanchez fans with "Why Jessica Sanchez blew it." But American idol voters will have the last say - can Jessica pull it off? On last night's show: "In round one, »
Kevin Costner Finished Whitney Tribute On The Way To Her Funeral
23 May 2012 12:06 PM, PDT | WENN | See recent WENN news »
Actor Kevin Costner was still writing the memorial speech he delivered Whitney Houston's funeral an hour before his The Bodyguard co-star was laid to rest in her native New Jersey.
The Dances with Wolves star shunned all requests to comment on Houston's passing following her sudden death in February, because he didn't feel the time or the "forum" was right to open up about his close friendship with the I Will Always Love You hitmaker.
But Costner ultimately mustered up the courage to put his feelings into words for the tragic superstar's funeral service after her cousin Dionne Warwick called in a favour.
And now the 57 year old has opened up about his struggles to find the right words for the emotional speech, admitting he was forced to pull over on his way to the ceremony to wrap up his tribute at a local park.
He tells People magazine, "I was nervous. I wrote it up to the last hour before going into church. I didn't realise so many people felt the need to hear from me. I had to think long and hard about what I wanted to say.
"My wife (Christine Baumgartner) and I pulled off to the side of the road and went to a park to finish it." »
Watch: Jessica Sanchez Delivers Three Sensational Performances On 'American Idol' Finale
23 May 2012 12:01 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Jessica Sanchez has never shied away from taking on legendary singers on "American Idol," and last night's finale was no exception.
The fearless 16-year-old singer sang the songs of not one (but two!) music legends: Celine Dion and Whitney Houston, and in typical Jessica fashion, she knocked both performances out of the park.
Sanchez and fellow finalist Phillip Phillips were asked to sing three songs each on last night's finale: Round one was {Idol creator} Simon Fuller's choice, round two was the contestants' choice and round three was their official "winner's song," (the first single they'll release following the competition).
In round one, Sanchez sang Whitney Houston's "I Have Nothing," and her vocals have never been more powerful. The half-Mexican, half-Filipina singer followed up that sensational performance with Celine Dion's "The Prayer" in round two, a song that not only showcased her ability to hit the high notes, »

American Idol Top 2 Performance Night Recap: Home Is Where the Artistry Is
23 May 2012 11:40 AM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »
For the final salvo in what’s arguably been the deepest, most evenly matched field in American Idol history, Tuesday night’s Season 11 finale came up surprisingly light in the competitive fireworks department.
Maybe the Top 2 — Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips — were still heeding last week’s instructions from their fallen comrade Joshua Ledet: “No! More! Drama!” Or perhaps it was just the incongruousness of the matchup, which was akin to making a choice between a stunning courture evening gown and a perfectly battered old t-shirt. (“But what’s the occasion?” you might’ve asked.)
Whatever the case, even »

Janet Jackson: Weight Gain Nearly Caused Diabetes
23 May 2012 10:02 AM, PDT | Entertainment Tonight | See recent Entertainment Tonight news »
In a new cover story for Prevention magazine, Janet Jackson explains why so many people relate to her as a weight loss role model and reveals that her past weight gains nearly made her diabetic.
"I think people really connect with the idea of someone who's gained and lost weight in a very public way, and also someone who's an emotional eater," Janet, the current spokeswoman for Nutrisystem, tells the July issue of Prevention.

Among foods the pop singer is most likely to turn to during "emotional triggers" involving boredom, sadness, frustration, stress and work, are sweets. "Chocolate, cake, caramel apples-there aren't many things I don't love," she says.
Janet said her body image was not the only concern she had while packing on the pounds. "Health was always a concern. When I gained weight in 2005, my nutritionist was very worried. I was close to having diabetes. Even when I »
