“The Butler” Trailer’s 10 Zaniest Moments
8 May 2013 3:38 PM, PDT | The Backlot | See recent The Backlot news »
Oprah. Fonda. Robin Williams. Heaven?
The Butler is happening, and it is… serious.
The movie is based on the life of Eugene Allen, a White House butler who served eight different presidents. Forest Whitaker plays the title role, but he’s surrounded by enough starpower to fuel a few hundred Correspondents’ Dinners. Below, I’ve embedded the trailer, but for now let’s rank the 10 Zaniest parts of this damn thing, which is slated for an October release.
10. Robin Williams plays Dwight Eisenhower, and he seems to be made of scrap heaps from Bill Murray‘s underwhelming work in Hyde Park on Hudson as Franklin Delano Roosevelt.
9. Please note that my girl Jane Fonda is pivoting, staring, and thundering in her one-second cameo as the most austere Nancy Reagan of all time.
8. Alex Pettyfer as mad, gun-wielding chap from the butler’s past: Where was this alter ego in Magic Mike? »

Robbie Williams Launches Tirade At Suede
20 March 2013 10:24 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Robbie Williams has launched a tirade against Britpop stars Suede as he took aim at the group's frontman Brett Anderson.
And in an online outburst, the on-off Take That star also ranted about a string of 90s guitar bands as he defended the contribution of pop acts such as One Direction.
Rock and roll war... just like the 1990s all over again!
Williams was responding to comments Anderson was said to have given in an interview about "c**p boy bands" which he claimed had been assembled "by committee".
Writing on his blog, Williams said more fans' hearts would be racing at the prospect of a One Direction album than a Suede release.
His swipe at Anderson is reminiscent of the ongoing feud he had with Oasis in the late 1990s after he fell out with the Gallagher brothers.
Williams was stung by Anderson's comments earlier this week, when he »

Suede – Bloodsports Album Review
18 March 2013 5:17 AM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
Release date: Monday 18th March 2013
There’s a certain irony that Suede’s comeback album, their first in ten and a half years since 2002′s lacklustre effort A New Morning, should arrive one week after David Bowie’s The Next Day.
Suede’s self-titled 1993 Mercury Prize winning debut was heavily indebted to glam-rock era Bowie, in particular Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars and, like that album, had a profound impact on the music of the era. This was an album don’t forget that precipitated the onset of Britpop, attracted almost unbridled adulation from the music press and drew the band comparisons with The Sex Pistols and The Smiths in terms of cultural significance. Bowie’s comeback has been lauded as one of the greatest in rock history; can Suede really pull off a resurgence one week later that anyone really cares about?

Could This Be Brett Butler's Comeback?
28 January 2013 8:07 AM, PST | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Sun Valley, Calif. -- She walked back and forth across a parking lot behind a converted-warehouse soundstage here on the industrial fringes of the San Fernando Valley. Brett Butler was smoking a cigar, her hair in curlers, practicing her lines -- of which there were not many -- over and over again.
“You may not know this because you’re” an idiot, she said, in character as she paced. “But women who base their self-esteem on their looks are usually pretty insecure.” »

Suede confirm tracklisting, release date for new album 'Bloodsports'
16 January 2013 5:28 AM, PST | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Suede have revealed the tracklisting for their comeback album Bloodsports. The record will be released on March 18, marking the band's first studio album in over ten years. Suede also confirmed that 'It Starts and Ends with You' will be released as a single on the same day, following the release of 'Barriers' as a free download last week. Lead singer Brett Anderson said: "After a year of sweating and bleeding over the record it's finally finished so we wanted to get some music out there as soon as we could. "'Barriers' isn't the first single but we are proud of it enough just to chuck it out there and thought that it's pulsing, romantic swell somehow summed up the feel of the album quite nicely . "The album is called Bloodsports. (more) »

He has a successful private practice, holding sessions with his group of primary patient regulars each week, as well as performing volunteer counselling for an inmate group at a state prison.
