Who run the world? Girls. Beyoncé's lyrics reign true as Forbes' has unveiled their annual World's Most Powerful Women List, which features 100 of the fiercest females ranked by wealth, media momentum and social impact. Unsurprisingly Jay-z's missus landed a top spot on the list coming in at No. 17, but she was no match for Oprah Winfrey, who nabbed the No. 13 slot, falling a little from No. 11 last year. Angelina Jolie (No. 37), Shakira (No. 52) and Gisele Bündchen (No. 95) are also featured on this year's list, not for their beauty or Tinseltown success, but for their efforts with the United Nations. Sofia Vergara, who co-owns LatinWE came in at No. 38, suggesting a new kind »
Ryan Gosling's 'Only God Forgives': Critics Really, Really Hate the Crime Drama
12 hours ago | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »
Ryan Gosling must be feeling pretty happy about his decision to skip the red carpet at Cannes this year. Critics at the Riviera film festival vivisected "Only God Forgives," his ultra-violent collaboration with Nicolas Winding Refn, leaving it as bruised and battered as the hunky star appears in promotional art for the film. Winding Refn, the enfant terrible of Danish film, previously teamed with Gosling on "Drive," earning a Best Director award at Cannes in 2011 for his hallucinatory crime story. Once again, the screen pulsates with all manner of blood-letting »

just now | PEOPLE.com | See recent PEOPLE.com news »
As Scarlett O'Connor on Nashville, Clare Bowen portrays the quintessential country crooner with a heart of gold, but the reality of the actress and singer's life may surprise you. The Australian native (yes, that's right) has come to be known for her character's folksy duets with costar Sam Palladio (who plays Gunnar Scott) like "When the Right One Comes Along." Leading in to Wednesday's finale, Bowen, 24, talks to People about her accent, moving to the States, and what's next for the just-signed Scarlett. I have a friend who says "When the Right One Comes Along" is going to be her wedding song. »

Daft Punk to Remix Themselves, Sell Many Albums
43 minutes ago | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Industry prognosticons (prognosticators only concerned with robo-music) are betting on a Billboard win for Daft Punk's Random Access Memories, which may debut to more than 300,000 copies sold. Big news for an act whose last album, Human After All, has only moved 125,000 copies in America in eight years. Additionally: Expect a remix of "Get Lucky" by the end of June. "We’re working on some mixes ourselves,” Thomas Bangalter says. "So, yes, there will probably be Daft Punk mixes of Daft Punk. Usually, we never mix ourselves, that’s something we feel we’re interested in doing this time." »

Returning to 'Jedi': Ewok down memory lane with Kevin Smith, Seth Green, Chris Hardwick -- Video
47 minutes ago | EW - Inside Movies | See recent EW.com - Inside Movies news »
EW approached filmmaker Kyle Newman (Fanboys) with a simple proposition: Will you make us a short film that collects famous voices talking about Star Wars VI: Return of the Jedi and their feelings about the film as it reaches its 30th anniversary?
After sweet-talking him with promises of no money and too-little time, we mentioned that he was our only hope and, weirdly, that worked. The result is The Return of Return of the Jedi: 30 Years and Counting, which shows elite geeks — among them Kevin Smith, Seth Green, Chris Hardwick, Jaime King, Topher Grace, Fall Out Boy, Eli Roth, »

'Nashville' recap: 'I'll Never Get Out of This World Alive' is a rough wrap
48 minutes ago | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
I was kind of wondering how "Nashville" could follow up on last week's murder-suicide. Maybe an act of domestic terrorism or a "Once Upon A Time" crossover in which an evil queen transforms the country capital into a magical land or a squirrel or something. Between revealing Maddie's real daddy and all the death, it felt as if last week was the real season finale. Unless, you know, the squirrel thing happened. Still, it turned out "Nashville" had plenty of swift kicks and sharp turns to deliver, even as half of the characters seemed to be grieving something or someone. »

Ryan Gosling Is Exactly as Sensitive a Director As You Hoped He'd Be
1 hour ago | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Ryan Gosling wasn't at Cannes to hear the boos his new film Only God Forgives received. That's because he's in Detroit, directing How to Catch a Monster, which Saiorse Ronan (Atonement, The Lovely Bones) says is going well. "It's different working with an actor as a director," says Ronan, who will appear in Gosling's directorial debut alongside Christina Hendrick, Doctor Who's Matt Smith, and the Gos's girlfriend, Eva Mendes. "So much of his approach is character-based, and he has a lot of respect for how we feel about them. If there's something we don't feel like doing, like, if my character doesn't feel like she would get in a car, and I tell him that, he'll rewrite the scene later. He's just so relaxed and very, very creative." Ronan says How to Catch a Monster is Gosling's "baby," too. Awww. »

Watch: Joseph Gordon-Levitt is addicted to porn in first 'Don Jon' trailer
1 hour ago | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
"There's only a few things I really care about in life. My body, my pad, my ride, my family, my church, my boys, my girls...and my porn." So goes the opening narration in the very first trailer for "Don Jon" (f.k.a. "Don Jon's Addiction"), the upcoming Joseph Gordon-Levitt comedy that represents the "Looper" star's first feature-length effort as a writer/director. The film, which debuted to mostly-positive reviews at this year's Sundance Film Festival (the film was championed by our own Drew McWeeny, though In Contention's Guy Lodge came away less than impressed), centers on Jon "Don Jon" Martello, a vapid Jersey-ite »

Jaime King Pregnant—but Not Necessarily With a Girl!
1 hour ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
Jaime King doesn't know if she's having a prince or princess yet. The pregnant actress' rep tells E! News that a report saying King is having a girl is not true. "This story is false," says the rep. "Jaime and Kyle don't even know the sex of their baby. They are keeping it a secret." So there you have it. The Heart of Dixie star and hubby Kyle Newman confirmed that they were expecting their first child earlier this month. "To all the media outlets printing that we are having a girl, that is false!" King also tweeted. "We don't know—we want a surprise. Please check facts first." And, no matter which kind of bun pops »
Jordana Brewster talks about holding the family together in 'Furious Six'
1 hour ago | Hitfix | See recent Hitfix news »
I enjoyed the latest chapter in the "Fast and the Furious" series quite a bit, and part of what's finally won me over wholeheartedly is just how earnestly they handle all of the family stuff in the film. Jordana Brewster plays Mia, the sister of Dominic Toretto, who is now married to Brian O'Conner, and it's because of her that the two guys, enemies in the first film, are now brothers in crime. She isn't involved in every major action sequence in the film, but she does play a crucial role, and towards the end of the movie, she gets a »

6 Lessons Hollywood Needs to Learn From 'The Fast & The Furious'
2 hours ago | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »
"Fast & the Furious 6" is widely expected to dominate the Memorial Day box office and potentially become the highest grossing film in the lucrative franchise's history. For a franchise keep growing as it enters its second decade and sixth installment is nearly unheard of in Hollywood, where sequels tend to burn hot and fast, dying out quickly. Yet Universal Studios has adroitly managed the car racing series by tapping into international markets, catering to under-appreciated moviegoing audiences and recognizing the power of Diesel fuel -- Vin Diesel that is.

How an Extreme Movie Makeover Saved 'Fast & Furious' From Going Direct to DVD
2 hours ago | The Wrap | See recent The Wrap news »
"Fast & Furious 6" has become a road race to riches without a finish line in sight. Roaring into theaters Friday, the movie is expected to generate $80 million or more over the Memorial Day weekend -- astounding numbers for a franchise that is more than a decade old, and isn't "Star Wars" or "Indiana Jones." Even more astonishing, Universal's "Fast" films are the rare series that seem to pick up steam with each new sequel. And with its multi-ethnic cast and foreign settings, it's been hailed as a model for how to »

Imagine Star Trek Into Darkness with a scene featuring Benedict Cumberbatch showering. That's exactly what director J.J. Abrams posed during a Wednesday appearance on TBS' late-night talker Conan. Addressing controversy surrounding a scene that saw Captain James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) checking out Carol Marcus (Alice Eve) in her underwear, Abrams explained that the moment was in line with Kirk's character, though he admitted that perhaps he didn't quite edit "the scene in the right way."
