US-ENTERTAINMENT Summary
Reuters - Tuesday, June 30
Family members turn out for BET Jackson tribute
ADVERTISEMENT
LOS ANGELES - Top black performers paid high tribute to fallen pop star Michael Jackson at Sunday's BET Awards where his sister Janet Jackson and father Joe Jackson made their first public appearances since the singer's death. The show's most moving moment came in a final tribute when Janet, a pop star in her own right, took the stage to thank the audience for turning out to honor her dead brother.
"Bruno" is Borat-lite, and a little tedious
LOS ANGELES - We all knew Borat. Borat was a friend of ours. Bruno, you're no Borat. Unfair to be sure, but because everyone is going to compare Sacha Baron Cohen's "Bruno" to his insanely funny "Borat," let's be honest: While pushing the PC envelope in new and imaginative ways as well as the MPAA's R rating, especially insofar as the male member is concerned, "Bruno" is only intermittently funny and all too often the "ambushes" of celebrities and civilians look staged. The movie is even a tad -- dare we say it? -- tedious.
Rock legends form new band, call it Chickenfoot
LONDON - Some of the biggest names in rock have banded together to form a new supergroup. They call it Chickenfoot, a name they readily admit is "silly." While the name may not be to everyone's taste, Van Halen veterans Sammy Hagar and Michael Anthony, Red Hot Chili Peppers drummer Chad Smith and virtuoso guitarist Joe Satriani rose high in the U.S. charts with their eponymous debut album this month.
Young, Springsteen give Hyde Park rock masterclass
LONDON - If Mount Rushmore featured rock 'n' rollers instead of U.S. presidents, the faces of Neil Young and Bruce Springsteen would surely be carved there. The two elder statesmen showed just why they are venerated by fans of all ages at the Hard Rock Calling festival in central London's Hyde Park this weekend in performances brimming with passion, energy and timeless songs.
Comic-Con boasts heavy TV lineup
LOS ANGELES - TV studios plan a strong presence at Comic-Con, the annual fan convention that seems to feature a greater number of series each summer. Next month's lineup at the San Diego confab includes a few titles beyond the usual sci-fi and fantasy genres. Procedurals such as Fox's "Bones" and USA's "Burn Notice," Fox's musical "Glee" and Discovery's "MythBusters" are in the mix.
A tale of two L.A. festivals
LOS ANGELES - Hollywood might be the heart of English-language moviemaking, but when it comes to film festivals, the city lacks a major-league franchise. Not that Los Angeles has no film festivals. One of its two big ones, the Los Angeles Film Festival, successfully wrapped its 2009 edition Sunday. But the casual movie fan couldn't be blamed for puzzling over the identities of the two festivals, LAFF and AFI Fest. However, recent leadership changes at both fests and economic realities of the recession might more forcefully define those identities.

Disney star Ashley Tisdale gets edgy on new album
NEW YORK - Ashley Tisdale knows it sounds silly, but her new album has a lot to do with the color of her hair. "For the last few years everyone has thought of me as Sharpay," the 23-year-old singer/actor says, referring to her blonde-and-bubbly character in Disney's smash "High School Musical" films.
Jackson autopsy leak denied, family seeks custody
LOS ANGELES - The Los Angeles coroner's office on Monday dismissed as inaccurate a British newspaper report that said Michael Jackson was emaciated and almost bald when he died suddenly last week. As the Jackson family clan gathered in Los Angeles to consider funeral details befitting the worldwide outpouring of affection for the "King of Pop," the singer's mother filed court papers seeking custody of his three children.
