Back before Kat Moss became the frontwoman for Scowl, one of the most invigorating bands in hardcore today, she was just another fan trying to force her way into the moshpit. “I wanted to dance,” the 25-year-old tells Rolling Stone. “I didn’t feel like I had fun on the show unless I was involved in the pit. But I was also really scared. I always felt a little embarrassed or shy. I was always standing on the edge of the pit and just wanting to get involved.”

Many movies choose to feature a casino as part of their story and there are plenty of reasons as to why they are included. The most obvious reason for a casino to feature in modern film is because it is a great setting for an interesting plot to take place. If the film is based in or on a casino, a gambler, or a casino game, it is clear one is going to be included in the movie. The topic could be about professional gambling or someone who runs a casino, in which case, the bulk of the movie is going to feature a casino.

Eminem stans are gonna want to make sure they subscribe to Starz. The Real Slim Shady is set to guest star on new upcoming drama “Bmf” (“Black Mafia Family”), TheWrap has learned exclusively. He’ll (very briefly) play White Boy Rick on one episode of the 50 Cent production.
We’d say more about Em’s scene, but we’ve seen the emcee’s collection of chainsaws.
“I’m honored and appreciative of my good friend Em for supporting my new show ‘Bmf,'” Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson said in a statement. “We couldn’t do a show based in Detroit without incorporating the legend that is Eminem.”

This month Brontez Purnell released his new book, ‘100 Boyfriends,’ and now his friend and Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong shares his enthusiastic support of his EP ‘White Boy Music’.
Though wrapped in the artifice of (as Purnell puts it) “exploring Eighties White Boy fake mod modalities,” White Boy Music, longtime punk veteran Brontez Purnell’s first solo EP, is a curious and wonderful rehashing of Nineties pop-punk all for the sake of “for fuck’s sake” itself.

Former Hollywood heartthrob Jan-Michael Vincent, star the hit TV series, Airwolf, is revealed to have died last month.
Jan-Michael Vincent, former star of the smash 1980s TV series, Airwolf, has died, reportedly at the age of 73. It’s an occurrence that, in actuality, took place nearly a month ago – on February 10 – and we only just now learned.
According to Vincent’s death certificate, as obtained by THR, the actor passed away as a result of cardiac arrest at Mission Hospital's Memorial Campus in Asheville, North Carolina. His death caps off widely-reported struggles with drugs and alcohol, which led to a tumultuous personal life rife with permanent-injury-inducing accidents and shameful legal issues, notably connected to domestic violence. However, his downfall contrasts sharply with an auspicious early career.
Indeed, Vincent was essentially the Brad Pitt of the 1970s, bearing a name and chiseled-jawed countenance that was synonymous with the...
