Reuters - 2 hours 24 minutes ago
Jonas Brothers hit flat note at box office
ADVERTISEMENT
LOS ANGELES - Teen idols the Jonas Brothers got beaten up by a pistol-packing granny at the weekend box office in North America, failing to live up to the hype generated by their concert movie. "Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience" came in at No. 2 with estimated three-day sales of $12.7 million, distributor Walt Disney Co said on Sunday. The studio had hoped for $15 million, which itself paled against wild industry forecasts that reached as high as $25 million.
CORRECTED: Rebellion on "Sarah Silverman" set
LOS ANGELES - The economic downturn is jeopardizing "The Sarah Silverman Program," one of Comedy Central's signature series. The show's executive producers -- Silverman, Dan Sterling and Rob Schrab -- have threatened to quit after the cable network told them the budget for their series would be slashed by more than 20%.
Slumdog brings Hollywood closer to Bollywood
MUMBAI - The largely Indian cast and crew of "Slumdog Millionaire" who gleefully stormed the stage at the Academy Awards signaled a closer nexus between the world's biggest movie industries, with experts hoping for a happy ending. India, home to the world's most prolific movie industry, has long tried to draw wider audiences, including by recently forging ventures with Hollywood studios looking to offset sluggish box office sales with new markets and cheaper production costs.
Fans stunned by Rihanna-Chris Brown reconciliation
LOS ANGELES - Fans of singers Chris Brown and Rihanna expressed dismay on Saturday at reports the couple had reunited just three weeks after Brown was alleged to have assaulted her. Celebrity magazines People and Us Weekly said that the R&B stars were spending time together at the Miami home of hip hop mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs -- and that Rihanna's father was supporting her decision.
Famed U.S. broadcaster Paul Harvey dies at age 90
CHICAGO - Paul Harvey, who captivated millions of radio listeners daily with his staccato delivery, firmly set opinions and old-fashioned outlook, died on Saturday at the age of 90, ABC News said. Harvey died at a hospital near his winter home in Phoenix, the network said. No cause of death was immediately available.
Jennifer Hudson calls music "therapy" after family deaths
LOS ANGELES - Singer Jennifer Hudson told chat show host Oprah Winfrey on Friday that music is her "therapy" after the murders of three of her relatives last year. Hudson and Winfrey did not mention the October killings during the singer's television appearance, but when asked how she was doing Hudson said she is "really good."
Ed McMahon ill with pneumonia
LOS ANGELES - Ed McMahon, the longtime sidekick to Johnny Carson on "The Tonight Show," has been hospitalized for nearly a month with pneumonia and other medical problems, a spokesman said on Friday. Hollywood publicist Howard Bragman said McMahon, who turns 86 next week, is currently in the intensive care unit of an undisclosed hospital.
U2 album a hit, Bono campaigning a miss: critics
LONDON - Irish band U2 releases its 12th studio album on Monday and while reviews are generally glowing, critics argue that lead singer Bono's dual role as rock star and campaigning "saviour" may be meddling with the music. "No Line On The Horizon" hits the shelves in Europe on Monday and in the United States on Tuesday, and, as one of 2009's biggest record launches, will be closely watched by a business seeking to reverse deep declines in album sales.
Lionel Richie still on the "Go" after 30 years
NEW YORK - "Hello" may be among Lionel Richie's signature No. 1 songs, but for more than 30 years, the singer-songwriter hasn't so much as paused for a "bye for now." The five-time Grammy Award recipient and Academy Award winner has been a fixture on the pop, R&B, adult contemporary and dance charts -- beginning in 1974 as a founding member of the Commodores, then as a solo artist and producer from 1981 on -- with a consistency seldom seem in the music business.
Publishers dust off vintage songs for new audiences
LOS ANGELES - There's no telling when lightning will strike a song. Consider the case of "At Last," the Mack Gordon/Harry Warren composition immortalized by Etta James. Beyonce performed it in "Cadillac Records," the recent movie about Chess Records, and then practically made it the theme song of President Barack Obama's inauguration.
