First look - Baz Luhrman’s “Great Gatsby” starring Carey Mulligan and Leonardo DiCaprio - Video (IrishCentral)
24 May 2012 6:05 AM, PDT | IrishCentral | See recent IrishCentral news »
After months of hearing snippets of news on Baz Luhrman’s “The Great Gatsby,” we’re finally getting a look at it in all its splendour. We would expect no less from the director who brought us “Romeo and Juliet” and “Moulin Rouge”. The adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s “Great Gatsby” is set in New York in 1922, when jazz was booming. However, in spite of the popularity of jazz at the time, Luhrman has used the tune “No Church in the Wild” by Kanye West and Jay-z, to add intensity to the trailer. The movie, which looks visually stunning, is set to be released in December 2012. Considering the cast, it’s hard to see where the movie can go wrong. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Gatsby, alongside Tobey Maguire and Carey Mulligan. Lara Spencer, anchor on "Good Morning America", said the “sizzling chemistry” and “wow, the sexual energy” between DiCaprio »

While "The Revolution" will not be televised, ABC has come up with a "Good" way to fill the time until Katie Couric's talk show hits the air Sept. 10.
The network announced Monday (May 21) that it will soon launch "Good Afternoon America." The program, which is being referred to as an "extension" of "Good Morning America," will feature Josh Elliott and Lara Spencer as co-anchors. ABC adds that "Gma" regulars Sam Champion, Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos will periodically stop by for special appearances.
The one-hour program will debut on July 9 at 2 p.m. Et. It will focus on light news, pop culture, lifestyle and workplace issues. The network has committed to a nine-week run for the show.
"Good Afternoon America" will replace the recently-canceled "The Revolution." The lifestyle talk show, featuring Ty Pennington and Tim Gunn, was sacked after its ratings failed to meet expectations. »

ABC News has finalized its lineup for the nine-week run of Good Afternoon America, the one-hour extension of Good Morning America that will run nine weeks beginning July 9. Josh Elliott and Lara Spencer will co-anchor the show, which Deadline first told you about back in April. It will act as a bridge between the end of the run of the freshman daytime series The Revolution (it was cancelled) and the start of the syndicated Katie Couric talk show Katie on September 10. For the Gma extension, the network said Sam Champion, Robin Roberts, and George Stephanopoulos will join in with special appearances on a show expected to be generally broader and lighter than the regular Gma; it “will feature the most-talked about celebrities, performances by the biggest names in the music industry, the latest pop culture news plus” among other things, ABC said. »

It's Official: 'Good Morning America' Is Getting An Afternoon Edition
21 May 2012 12:17 PM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
It's official: "Good Morning America" is getting an afternoon spinoff.
ABC confirmed on Monday what had been widely reported in April: that its newly resurgent morning show will be expanding into daytime for nine weeks this summer.
"Good Afternoon America," as the new edition is called, will be co-hosted by "Gma" regulars Josh Elliott and Lara Spencer. It launches July 9 and will air at 2 Pm. A press release signalled that the show will focus firmly on the lighter side of the news, with musical performances, pop culture updates and "original entertainment, lifestyle, health, workplace and consumer reporting."
The move comes just as "Gma" has firmly knocked its rival "Today" out of the perennial top slot in the mornings. After breaking the NBC show's 16-year winning streak, the two programs have battled back and forth, trading the winning spot each week. It also represents a chance for ABC to extend the highly profitable "Gma" brand, »

Lesleyann Coker: Good Morning America Continues Ratings Wins Over Today
21 May 2012 12:00 PM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
For the first time in 16 years, there's a battle brewing in the ratings between Good Morning America and Today for the top spot. The two shows differ in substance, style and personality.
Recent ratings trends indicate viewers favoring fluff, which begs the question of how much news will people stomach first thing in the morning and who do they want giving it to them?
When Gma beat Today on April 9th, NBC executives were quick to point out that Today host Matt Lauer was on vacation. However, when Gma repeated its feat the week of April 23rd, Lauer was in his usual Today anchor chair, as he was again the week of May 7th when Gma took the lead by 86,000 total viewers.

21 May 2012 10:53 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
The men really pulled out some bizarre entry stunts to get noticed by "The Bachelorette" Emily Maynard on last week's season premiere.
There was a guy who showed up with a glass slipper, a guy dressed up like an elderly person and even one guy who showed up with an egg. On "Gma" (weekdays, 7 a.m. Et on ABC) Monday morning, Lara Spencer asked Emily what she thought of the strange entrances. "What were you thinking when these guys were coming out? ... These are my selections?"
"Umm ...kind of, to be honest," Emily replied. "Those guys that I normally would have usually said, 'No way,' I was forced to really get to know them. I was surprised by them.”

Is Justin Bieber's 'Boyfriend' video too hot for tweens?
19 April 2012 9:13 AM, PDT | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »
Justin Bieber continued his breadcrumb trail of video clips for his new song "Boyfriend" on Tuesday's (April 17) "The Voice," revealing a few more moments of him whisper-rapping into a Selena Gomez lookalike's ear and being groped by a bunch of female hands. But in a segment for Thursday's "Good Morning America," Lara Spencer questions if the video is too hot for Bieber's tween audience.
Other pop stars like Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears have tried to transition from sweet and innocent to a more provocative look and sound -- some with more success than others.
"All those Beliebers have to grow up sometime," Spencer surmises.
So is 18-year-old Bieber one of the ones who can easily make the move from "sweet little Justin Bieber," as Spencer calls him, to sexy, whisper-rapping Justin Bieber? And is it different because he's a guy? Does it make the transition easier?
