Billy Joel Changed His Songwriting Style for ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’: ‘It’s the Worst Musical Thing I’ve Ever Written’
Billy Joel is one of the most celebrated singer-songwriters of all time, with millions around the world singing his songs. One of his hits, “We Didn’t Start the Fire,” is a fan-favorite. But the artist is vocal about the fact that he doesn’t like the track. Joel even calls it “the worst thing” he’s ever written.”

‘We Didn’t Start the Fire’ came from a conversation between Billy Joel and John Lennon’s son Sean Musician Billy Joel performs onstage during the first Farm Aid benefit concert at Memorial Stadium, Champaign, Illinois, September 22, 1985. | Paul Natkin/Getty Images

“We Didn’t Start the Fire” is a single off Joel’s 1989 album Storm Front. The song is a fast-paced, wordy tune that lists off historical events, figures, and objects (118 total) that took place between 1949 (the year Joel was born) and 1989. “We Didn’t Start the Fire” went No. 1 and

‘I got one!’ Ken Jeong (‘The Masked Singer’) dumbfounded when he correctly guesses Rock Lobster’s identity

‘I got one!’ Ken Jeong (‘The Masked Singer’) dumbfounded when he correctly guesses Rock Lobster’s identity
“I never get anything right! I got one!” a dumbfounded Ken Jeong exclaimed at the end of Wednesday’s second episode of “The Masked Singer” Season 9. Magic struck when the notoriously bad guesser correctly named Howie Mandel as the secret celebrity hiding inside the Rock Lobster costume. Ken was the only panelist who got it right; Jennifer McCarthy Wahlberg and Nicole Scherzinger both went with Martin Short, while Robin Thicke picked Steve-o.

Ken chose Howie because of two clues in particular: the judge’s gavel (referring to his recurring stint on “America’s Got Talent”) and the hospital scrubs (a reference to his role on “St. Elsewhere”). “This is someone who is a legendary comedian — someone who is one of my influences,” Ken stated emphatically after the red crustacean screeched out “S.O.S.” by Abba while running around the stage as if he was being boiled.

In a rare moment of unity,

Jim Mahoney, PR To Sinatra, McQueen, Gable, Explores 60 Years Of Hollywood In Memoir: “It Was About Taming The Lion”

Jim Mahoney, PR To Sinatra, McQueen, Gable, Explores 60 Years Of Hollywood In Memoir: “It Was About Taming The Lion”
Jim Mahoney was one of Hollywood’s go-to guys. He spent 60+ years in public relations, guiding the images of Clark Gable, Frank Sinatra, Steve McQueen, Bob Hope, Johnny Carson, Lee Marvin, Burt Lancaster, Christie Brinkley, Peggy Lee, and hundreds more.

He was on the front lines when Frank Sinatra Jr. was kidnapped, and was at the party at Peter Lawford’s house the night Marilyn Monroe died. He was also there with the Rat Pack in Las Vegas.

Now age 95, Mahoney has captured all of that in a memoir, Get Mahoney!: A Hollywood Insider’s Memoir. “Get Mahoney!” was the phrase often used when stars and their handlers knew trouble was brewing and needed to keep their names out of the press. Mahoney was good at his job, and frequently referred to himself as a better “suppress” agent than press agent.

“It was about ‘taming the lion’ – both the press and the clients themselves,

She wore minimal makeup, instead going for a very natural look.

This got many of her fans to see similarities between her and her mother and famed model Christie Brinkley.

A Lost National Lampoon's Vacation Sequel Would've Seen The Griswolds Divorced

A Lost National Lampoon's Vacation Sequel Would've Seen The Griswolds Divorced
It's undeniable that the films in the National Lampoon's "Vacation" franchise have become comedy classics. The misadventures of the Griswold family of patriarch Clark (Chevy Chase), wife Ellen (Beverly D'Angelo), daughter Audrey (Dana Barron/Dana Hill/Juliette Lewis/Marisol Nichols/Leslie Mann), son Rusty (Anthony Michael Hall/Jason Lively/Johnny Galecki/Ethan Embry/Ed Helms), and cousin Eddie (Randy Quaid) have become seminal watches for multiple generations, and remain endlessly quotable after nearly 40 years.

The Griswolds were a relatable look at the average, white, middle-class American family, replacing the Norman Rockwell-esque presentation of yesteryear with more authentic and unconventional problems sprinkled throughout. Okay, so maybe we don't all know what it's like to lose our Great Aunt and have to strap her to the top of the car with the luggage in the rain, but we probably know what it feels like to expect a Christmas bonus but get

Miley Cyrus Says Her New Year’s Resolution Is To ‘Listen To Others’
Miley Cyrus is getting a head start on her New Year’s Resolution.

The singer appeared on NBC’s upcoming “A Toast to 2022!” special and spoke with Hoda Kotb about her goal for 2023.

“I guess my resolution would really be — my instinct is very loud, but I’m not a great listener sometimes,” she said, via People. “Dolly [Parton] was telling me, her husband [Carl Thomas Dean] says, ‘You’re not hard of hearing. You’re hard of listening.’ And I guess that would kind of be my resolution, to not just listen to myself, but listen to others.”

Ken Jeong Thinks Mike Myers Is Beetle In Masked Singer Preview

Ken Jeong Thinks Mike Myers Is Beetle In Masked Singer Preview
Austin Powers star Mike Myers could be in the Beetle costume on The Masked Singer, according to panelist Ken Jeong. The contestant will make his debut appearance during Muppet Night along with the Lambs. Robo Girl won last week's round and will return to the stage for the new episode. If she outperforms the new contestants, she will move on to another round. Harp was the first contestant of the season to make it through three rounds, and she will return to the stage for the semi-finals. Fans think Robo Girl has a good chance of joining Harp.

The Masked Singer Muppet night will be one of the rare occasions where Ken Jeong has a reasonable guess. In a sneak peek of The Masked Singer night, Ken guesses that Beetle is Mike and the audience and his fellow panelists are pretty pleased with his guess. "I'm thinking this could be Mike Myers,

Ken Jeong's Most Accurate The Masked Singer Guesses

Ken Jeong's Most Accurate The Masked Singer Guesses
Ken Jeong rarely thinks rationally on The Masked Singer and typically gives the most unrealistic guesses of all the panelists. He looks a little too closely at the clues and ends up with laughable guesses. During season 7, Ken was convinced Armadillo was Academy Award-winning actor Al Pacino, but he was actually Dog the Bounty Hunter. In a recent episode, Ken guessed Robo Girl as Only Murders In The Building actress Cara Delevigne and even special guest Andrew Lloyd Webber thought the guess was ridiculous.

While some fans find Ken's outrageous guesses funny, others are tired of him being so unrealistic and wish he would take the show more seriously. Ken loves to make a scene with his guesses. He often stands up and exclaims, "I know exactly who this is," before shouting out an absurd guess. Some fans think this takes away from the show and wish he would put

‘The Masked Singer’ Reveals First Season 8 Costume, the Dragon ‘Bride’ (Exclusive)
After last season’s controversial decision to include a disgraced politician who is the target of a criminal investigation involving the attempts in 2020 to overthrow the democratically-elected President of the United States, “The Masked Singer” returns next month with a new crop of contestants — and Variety has a first look at one of the costumes.

Bride,” the dragon-esque character as seen above, reps the first character to be introduced so far for the Season 8 of “Masked Singer.” Bride was created by costume designer Tim Chappel, who has also designed creations for the Australian version of the series.

Fox has so far not revealed any other characters. But the show is having some fun with speculation on social media (and on the Fox-owned TMZ website) that NFL superstar Tom Brady may appear on the new season, since he’s been missing from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers training camp.

Star-Studded Hamptons Soireé to Raise Funds for Community and Conservation in Africa

Star-Studded Hamptons Soireé to Raise Funds for Community and Conservation in Africa
On Friday, August 19, 2022 Amy and Gary Green are hosting an evening fundraiser at their home in Bridgehampton, New York to support the philanthropic and conservation efforts of the African Community & Conservation Fund (Accf) and Tusk, a UK-based charity headed up by Royal Patron, Prince William.

The “Karibu Africa” soireé will raise money to help Accf’s and Tusk’s many community outreach programs, wildlife protection and anti-poaching efforts, including initiatives to improve livelihoods and combat rising food poverty in East & Southern Africa, particularly Tanzania, Rwanda, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.

Covid-19 devastated jobs and livelihoods across the African continent, and with few economic recovery resources, decades of conservation and community upliftment success has been put at risk. Moreover, Russia’s war in Ukraine has collaterally created a global food crisis, as wheat and other grain shipments to Africa have been cut off or dangerously delayed.

Legendary actress Joan Collins shows you are never too old to wear a bikini as she plays in the pool in the South of France.

Much like Christie Brinkley, Joan proved that age is just a number.

She shared a video on her Instagram page, which featured her in a large blue pool as she danced while standing in the water.

The video featured her singing “Yay” in unison with the music as she grooved to the song. Joan’s singing caused the cameraman to laugh in approval from behind the lens.
