Paul McCartney directs Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp in new music videos -- Watch

16 April 2012 12:31 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

Want Natalie Portman and Johnny Depp to star in your music video? Here’s a handy step-by-step guide to making it happen:

1. Be Paul McCartney. (Note: This one’s pretty important.)

2. Call Natalie Portman.

3. Open with some small talk — possible topics include Brad and Angie’s engagement, the last issue of Goop, and Game of Thrones. (Even celebrities love Game of Thrones, right?)

4. Ask her to be in your video.

5. Wait for her to say yes.

6. Call Depp; repeat steps three to five.

McCartney himself has mastered this formula. Last Friday, the Beatle premiered three new clips for “My Valentine, »

How Davy Jones and the Monkees Impacted Music, Hollywood -- and Jack Nicholson

8 March 2012 1:27 PM, PST | The Hollywood Reporter | See recent The Hollywood Reporter news »

Davy Jones, who died Feb. 29 of a heart attack at 66, was the focal point of The Monkees, but he was far more than teen magazine eye candy -- much like the made-for-tv group that launched his career wasn't a mere flash in the pan. The foursome, which also included Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork and Michael Nesmith, pioneered the music video format and paved the way for every boy band that followed in their wake, from New Kids on the Block to 'N Sync to Jonas Brothers, while Davy set the stage for future teen idols David Cassidy

Davy Jones Remembered as a Gentle Hero in Private Funeral

8 March 2012 12:00 PM, PST | PEOPLE.com | See recent PEOPLE.com news »

True to the hit song, Davy Jones was a daydreamer who made people believe, a priest told mourners at a small, private funeral for the Monkees lead singer on Thursday in Indiantown, Fla. Jones, who died Feb. 29 at age 66, was "a very Christian hero" who conducted himself "with humility and caring for others," the Rev. Frank O'Loughlin said at the closed-door service at Holy Cross Catholic Church. Although the funeral was held only for close family and friends, a copy of his sermon was provided to the Associated Press. Related: Davy Jones to Be Cremated"He wrote about a quiet, »

Monkees Not Attending Davy Jones Funeral

7 March 2012 10:50 AM, PST | Cinemaretro.com | See recent CinemaRetro news »

 

The surviving members of The Monkees, Mike Nesmith, Mickey Dolenz and Peter Tork, have announced they will not be attending Davy Jones' funeral in Florida this week. The reason given is that they didn't want to distract from the privacy of the event by causing a media sensation. The three say they may attend a future family memorial service in New York or Jones' native England. It's well known there were feuds among the group members even extending to reunions in recent years. However, taken at face value, Nesmith, Dolenz and Tork may well be looking out for the best interest of Jones' family. For more click here »

Surviving Monkees won't attend Davy Jones funeral

7 March 2012 10:12 AM, PST | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

For Monkees fans hoping the surviving members will reunite at the funeral of Davy Jones, this won't be happening. And it's all about respect for Jones' family.

Micky Dolenz tells Billboard, "My understanding is they [Jones' family] want to avoid a media circus and... the family wants to keep it very, very low-key and very, very private...And you can imagine as soon as one or two or any of us were to show up, it would very quickly be degraded into something that I don't think his immediate family would want to deal with."

Jones' spokesperson Helen Kensick has said that there will be public memorials for The Monkee both in New York and in England in the coming days. For that Dolenz, Peter Tork and Mike Nesmith may attend. Dolenz says,  "It's pretty early days, you know, to be making too many plans. I'm still in shock."

The Monkees' Remaining Members Forgo Pal's Funeral, Respect Davy Jones' Family

7 March 2012 8:46 AM, PST | National Ledger | See recent National Ledger news »

The remaining members of The Monkees will not attend Davy Jones' funeral. The 66-year-old singer passed away from a heart attack last week and while his bandmates are upset, they have agreed to stay away from his burial as Davy's family want a "low-key" send-off. Asked if he and his bandmates Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork will attend the funeral, drummer Micky Dolenz told Billboard: "My understanding is they want to avoid a media circus and the family wants to keep it very, very low-key and very, very private. "And you can imagine as soon as one or two or any of us were to show up, it would very quickly be degraded into something that I don't think his immediate family would want to deal with that."

Monkees Will Not Attend Davy Jones' Funeral

7 March 2012 5:08 AM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Los Angeles -- The three surviving Monkees aren't planning to attend Davy Jones' funeral because it would likely bring too much unwanted attention to his family during their time of grief, the group's Micky Dolenz said Tuesday.

He and fellow Monkees Peter Tork, and Michael Nesmith have talked of attending one of the memorials that Jones' family is planning to hold in New York and in the late singer's native England, Dolenz said. And he added he's considering organizing a memorial himself for Jones' friends in Los Angeles.

Whether the surviving Monkees would perform at any of the gatherings, or at any other time in the future, is an open question.

"The three of us, Mike and Peter and I, we have never worked together just as a threesome. Mostly it was Peter, David and I and then Mike would join us," Dolenz said of the band's periodic reunions over the years. »

7 March 2012 3:15 AM, PST | digitalspy | See recent digitalspy news »

Monkees singer Micky Dolenz has revealed that the band will not attend the funeral of their colleague Davy Jones. Dolenz said he shared the sentiments of Peter Tork and Michael Nesmith that Jones's intimate service, allegedly taking place today (March 7), would "be degraded" by their presence. "The family wants to keep it very, very low-key and very, very private," he told Billboard. "And you can imagine as soon as one or two or any of us were to show up, it would very quickly be degraded." Memorial concerts for Jones, who suffered a fatal heart attack last Wednesday (February 29) at the age of 66, have been tipped to take place in New York, London and Los Angeles. Dolenz said that although (more) »

It may sound disheartening, but the remaining members of The Monkees have good reasoning behind their decision not to attend Davy Jones' private funeral in Florida.
