The faux documentary produced by Peter Jackson, the Oscar-winning filmmaker behind "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, was buoyed by largely warm reviews and a promotional blitz at the recent Comic-Con comic book convention that fueled pre-release buzz. 40 years later, Woodstock a thriving business NASHVILLE - Back in 1969, Woodstock organizers billed their three-day festival as "An Aquarian Exposition." But although the concert became free when an expected crowd of 200,000 grew "half a million strong," it was conceived as a business proposition. And the business has endured. Woodstock Ventures, the firm that oversees the licensing and intellectual property related to the Woodstock festival, is still run by the original producers of the event. And for several decades now, that once ragtag group of hippies has evolved into -- if they weren't already -- good businessmen with savvy instincts. Bollywood star held in U.S. airport, fans outraged MUMBAI - Indian Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan said he felt angry and humiliated after he was detained and questioned at a U.S. airport, sparking an uproar in India among his fans.

Leaked Radiohead song has fans on alert for new EP LONDON - There is speculation that Radiohead will issue a new digital EP as early as Monday, after the leak of a track online assumed to be a new song by the band. Fan site At Ease reports that the track "These Are My Twisted Words" was posted on its message board, and it has since appeared on YouTube.

Seinfeld to be first guest on new Jay Leno show LOS ANGELES - Comedian Jerry Seinfeld will be the first guest on Jay Leno's new primetime TV show in September, NBC said on Friday.

Kelly Clarkson and LeBron James in "get schooled" LOS ANGELES and 18 other youth-oriented Viacom TV channels. MC Hammer plans companion piece for 1990 hit album DETROIT is planning a 20th anniversary "companion" album to his 1990 breakthrough, "Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em," which spent 21 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, was certified 10-times-platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America; and launched the hits "U Can't Touch This," "Have You Seen Her" and "Pray." Hollywood sees win in China WTO case as first step LOS ANGELES - Hollywood scored a win with the World Trade Organization as it seeks inroads into China, but rampant piracy in the market means the WTO ruling is just a first step in a long slog for the U.S. entertainment industry. The WTO said China broke international trade rules by restricting the imports of movies, music and books and other audiovisual content. The current system hinders studios, filmmakers, musicians, videogame makers and authors from marketing works at competitive prices, it said.
