Michael Phelps took the gold Thursday night in the 200-meter individual medley, beating teammate Ryan Lochte in their final "Duel in the Pool." But for fans watching the Rio Olympics in Canada, they got a different story. Elliotte Friedman, a broadcaster for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, mistakenly called the race for Lochte, confusing the 32-year-old swimmer for Phelps in what sounded like the race of Lochte's life.

Chicago – The first ten minutes or so of ABC’s new reality competition series “Take the Money and Run” is relatively promising and entertaining. Then it all gets very, very silly.

The relatively-clever concept from the team behind “The Amazing Race” is to merge reality competition with the popular trend of police procedurals. “It’s C.S.I. meets Survivor!!” That may be a slight exaggeration, but it’s not far off.

Supermodel Elle Macpherson is following in fellow-Australian Nicole Kidman's footsteps by appearing in stage show The Blue Room. The 37-year-old beauty, who has just launched her own range of lingerie in Britain, is to make her theatrical debut at Sydney's Theatre Royal next February. Paradise Road actor Paul Bishop is set to star opposite the supermodel. "The Blue Room revolves around sex and indeed it's a very sexy play," says the play's director Simon Phillips. He adds, "I guess it is handy to have at the center of the play, two characters with whom most people wouldn't mind having the odd sexual encounter and certainly Elle and Paul fulfill that requirement pretty persuasively."...
