Billboard Music Awards 2013: Highlights and Winners

20 May 2013 1:05 AM, PDT | PopStar | See recent PopStar news »

What happens in Vegas....? Billboard hosted it's annual Billboard Music Awards (TV) from the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Sunday night. Despite his best efforts, host Tracy Morgan appeared to get off to a rocky start and never quite seemed to recover. During the course of his brief (and only marginally funny) monolog, the comedian managed to mispronounce three artists' names and flubbed his date with the teleprompter. Aside from a quasi-entertaining dance off with pop star Psy, his hosting chops left a bit to be desired. No question Morgan is a good comic, but his skills seemed ill-suited for this particular gig. Bruno Mars kicked off the show with his newest single, a Motown-style tune called "Treasure." It was a crowd-pleasing "crimson" moment that set the stage for a host of performances by Billboard's most prevalent chart toppers of the year. Country fave Shania Twain presented the first award »

'I Don't Need The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame'

18 May 2013 5:47 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

When this year's Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony airs on HBO Saturday night, Rush, Heart, Public Enemy, Donna Summer and Randy Newman, among others, will be seen joining those already enshrined in the Cleveland museum. But one group that won't be represented, yet again, is the self-proclaimed "hottest band in the world," Kiss.

Longtime fans can't believe the group that taught America how to rock and roll all night and party every day still hasn't made the cut. The Huffington Post asked lead singer Paul Stanley if there's hope of a reprieve.

"Well, it depends on who lives longer, us or Jann Wenner," Stanley said, referring to the Rolling Stone editor-in-chief who co-founded the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame back in the mid-1980s.

Fans have a tendency to blame Wenner for the Kiss snub. (One brave loyalist even confronted Wenner on the street to demand answers. »

'The Butler' Trailer is Here to Serve You

8 May 2013 8:09 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »

If there was ever a more ambitious film than "The Butler," we have yet to discover it.

"Precious" director Lee Daniels efforts to recapitulate — through the real-life eyes of a lone, stolid White House butler — pretty much the entire twentieth century as it related to the American Civil Rights Movement. With a cast list that reads like a flat-out roll call for the Walk of Fame, Daniels presents the working life of Cecil Gaines (real name: Eugene Allen), a man who served eight consecutive U.S. presidents during his career and witnessed history being made first-hand.

The first trailer for "The Butler" has now been released, and boy oh boy are we impressed with all the acute caricaturing going down here ... and all the feels we feel.

Forest Whitaker leads the cast as the apolitical Mr. Gaines, a man whose directive is to ghost around the Capitol without putting in »

Forest Whitaker Leads a Fantastic Cast in First 'The Butler' Trailer

8 May 2013 5:00 AM, PDT | firstshowing.net | See recent FirstShowing.net news »

"Everything you are, and everything you have, is because of that butler." The first trailer has debuted for Lee Daniels' new film The Butler starring Forest Whitaker as Eugene Allen, who served eight presidents as the White House's head butler. As the latest follow-up to Lee Daniels' Oscar-winning Precious and his southern Gothic film The Paperboy, this is expected to be Oscar bait. It has quite a supporting cast to boot, with actors like Robin Williams, John Cusack, James Marsden, Liev Schreiber and Alan Rickman playing various Presidents. Even Oprah has a role, along with Cuba Gooding Jr., David Oyelowo and Lenny Kravitz. I'm not sure what to make of this, it's a very melodramatic trailer but doesn't look terrible. Here's the first official trailer for Lee Daniels' The Butler, originally from Yahoo: The Butler, directed by Lee Daniels from a script by Danny Strong, stars Oscar »
