"Tangled" tops slow post-holiday weekend box office
LOS ANGELES - Disney animated fairy tale "Tangled" knocked British boy wizard Harry Potter from the top of movie box office charts on the weekend, claiming No. 1 with $21.5 million during a slow weekend in theaters, according to studio estimates on Sunday. After two straight weeks at No. 1, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1" fell to second place, ringing up $16.7 million and pushing its total ticket sales in the United States and Canada to just over $244 million in three weeks for the Warner Bros. studio, a unit of Time Warner Inc.
New Mel Gibson movie finally heads to theaters
LOS ANGELES - Mel Gibson is headed back into movie theaters after months of damaging publicity over his tempestuous relationship with ex-lover Oksana Grigorieva and a domestic abuse investigation by Los Angeles authorities.

She's a woman full of deep religious faith," Jackson was quoted as telling the Detroit News after a private visit with Franklin at an undisclosed location in the city on Friday.
"Kids" breaks new ground for lesbians on film
NEW YORK - It isn't stirring the same buzz as that 'gay cowboy film', but Oscar contender "The Kids Are All Right" may give portrayals of lesbians in Hollywood a positive boost the way "Brokeback Mountain" shattered previous depictions of gay men. "Kids," is the most prominent American film yet to hit cinemas centered on the lives of a lesbian couple, powered by two big stars, Annette Bening and Julianne Moore, a clever script and classy directing, critics agree.
Fashionable Fergie gets push from Wilhelmina Models
DETROIT - When Fergie's manager William Derella pitched Wilhelmina Models four years ago on representing his client, agency president Sean Patterson didn't need much convincing. "We left the first meeting and I said to one of the other agents, 'This girl's completely marketable, every which way,' " Patterson recalls. "She's the hat trick--beautiful, fashionable and cool at the same time. In the beauty/fashion industry, that's gold."
Robert Downey Jr. attached to star in musical film
LOS ANGELES - Robert Downey Jr. will be singing for his supper. The actor is attached to star in a musical pitch that Warner Bros. just picked up from Brian Yorkey and Tom Kitt, the Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning composing team behind the musical "Next to Normal."
Filmmaker works 40 years to make "Nutcracker 3D"
LOS ANGELES - "Every adult has a child-like soul," says 73 year-old Andrei Konchalovsky. And as the co-writer/director of "The Nutcracker in 3D," Konchalovsky called upon his inner child to muster the enthusiasm and optimism to get the long-delayed project to the big screen -- after 40 years of trying.
Adam Lambert on post-American Idol success
LOS ANGELES - If there was any question as to whether "American Idol" is capable of spawning credible, Grammy-worthy artists, Adam Lambert is out to prove the naysayers wrong. The Season 8 runner-up, who joins past "Idol" alum nominees Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Fantasia, and Jennifer Hudson, among others, is nominated for best male pop vocal performance for "Whataya Want From Me," the second single off his 2009 debut, "For Your Entertainment."
Former "Dora the Explorer" settles lawsuit
LOS ANGELES - U.S. cable networks Nickelodeon, MTV Networks and parent company Viacom have extracted themselves from a highly public lawsuit brought by a 14-year-old who was fired from voicing "Dora the Explorer" after she reached puberty. According to John Balestriere, the attorney for former Dora voice Caitlin Sanchez, her multimillion dollar lawsuit against the producers is over.
"Dexter" stalks Season 6 renewal
LOS ANGELES - This won't surprise anybody: Showtime is getting ready to announce a renewal for "Dexter" within the next week or so. The serial-killer saga just had its second highest ratings ever on Sunday night, delivering 2.5 million viewers, up 43% from the fifth-season premiere. That almost certainly means the upcoming finale on December 12 will set a new viewership record.
