Can Megan Thee Stallion hold off Doja Cat and Phoebe Bridgers to win Grammy for Best New Artist?
The Grammy Award for Best New Artist is a push from the industry for their favorite up-and-coming musicians making waves. While some past winners have admittedly faded away, a lot went on to become decade-defining or even generation-defining artists, like The Beatles (1965), Mariah Carey (1991) and Adele (2009). Let’s see who’s in line this year to join this list of influential winners.

Korean Cinemas Try to Adapt as Box Office Recovery Weakens
Cinemas in Korea are trying to adapt to new straitened circumstances as the autumn box office recovery peters out. The Korean market, in normal years the world’s fourth largest theatrical territory, saw aggregate revenues of just $1.44 million over the weekend, according to data from the Korean Film Council’s Kobis service.

The top of the chart was a rerun of the previous weekend, with Korean “Best Friend” taking top place, ahead of local adventure drama “Collectors” and U.S. mystery thriller “Run.” But numbers were down in each case. “Best Friend” grossed $526,000, down from $1.03 million in its opening, for a $2.60 million cumulative. “Collectors” earned just $221,000 for a cumulative of $12.0 million. “Run” has $1.99 million earned since Nov. 20.

Weekend numbers dropped for the fourth frame in succession as audiences react to Korea’s coronavirus undulations and film releases dry up. Previous weekends had been worth $2.29 million, $3.77 million and $4.98 million.

Nationwide grosses in November fell to $29.7 million,

Korea Box Office Slumps to $2.25 Million Weekend
The box office outlook in South Korea, which last year was the world’s fourth largest theatrical market, turned from bad to worse. Gross revenues over the weekend dropped to just $2.24 million, a slump of 40% compared with the already depressed $3.70 million total of the weekend before.

How Sofi Tukker Have Kept the Music Going Every Day Throughout Quarantine
For Sofi Tukker, the music doesn't stop. When strict social distancing measures in place to slow the global coronavirus pandemic forced the popular Edm duo to stay put at their shared home in Miami for much of the foreseeable future, it meant that tour dates would have to be postponed and fans would have to some time until it would be deemed safe for live music to resume.

Porgs 101: Everything You Need to Know About the Adorable ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Creatures
Even their name is cute. Porgs — teensy, tiny, and be-feathered — are the latest creature to enter the sprawling sci-fi “Star Wars” universe, though we can only hope they prove to be as charming as Bb-8, and less like Jar Jar Binks.

Lovingly created by “The Last Jedi” director Rian Johnson himself, the months since they were first introduced to the Star Wars faithful have only increased demand to know still more about the screaming sea birds and their place in the mythos.

'The Good Place' Boss on Creating a 'Shaky' Alliance and Michael's Too-Good-to-Be-True Offer (Exclusive)
Warning: Spoiler alert! Do not proceed if you have not watched Thursday’s episode of The Good Place.

The Good Place just created the unlikeliest alliance.

On Thursday’s episode, titled “Team Cockroach,” Michael (Ted Danson) persuades Eleanor (Kristen Bell), Chidi (William Jackson Harper), Tahani (Jameela Jamil) and Jason(Manny Jacinto) that it is in their best interest to bring him into their inner circle.

But, does such a destination even exist?

Following the episode, creator Mike Schur broke down the unlikeliest of alliances, whether there actually is a “good place” as Michael suggests and if the foursome really do want to become better humans.

Lisa May has been at her new job for nearly one month now. To match her last high-profile radio gig as sidekick to popular talk show hosts “Kevin and Bean,” she’ll just need to stick around 95.5 Klos-fm for another 23 years and 11 months. The upbeat, fan-favorite traffic reporter and entertainment-minute chatterbox was rather unceremoniously-yet-famously canned from mega-station Kroq in February. May detailed what she called the “story no one has really heard” on the “Alison Rosen Is Your New Best Friend” podcast shortly thereafter.
