Bruce Jenner 'Dying' To Be On 'Dancing With The Stars' This Season

0
0
The new season of "Dancing With the Stars" is coming up in March, and Us Weekly has the scoop on one reality celebrity who is reportedly "dying to do it." According to the magazine, Bruce Jenner is interested in being the third member of his family to grace the "DWTS" stage. Kim Kardashian took 11th place back in Season 7, while her brother Rob fared slightly better in Season 13, settling for second place.

With Jenner's Olympic background, the 64-year old former athlete should have a real shot at beating both of his stepchildren. Plus, it could be just the distraction Bruce needs. He and wife Kris have separated after 22 years together.

Season 18 of "Dancing With the Stars" premieres March 17. Casting information isn't usually revealed until closer to that date, so fans may have to wait until after the Olympics to see if this one-time Olympic champion needs to lace up his dancing shows.

For now, Bruce Jenner can be seen on "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on E!

Thomas Blige, Father Of Mary J. Blige, Reportedly In Critical Condition After Stabbing

The father of R&B star Mary J. Blige is in critical condition after being stabbed early Thursday morning (Jan. 23).

According to WOOD TV 8, Thomas Blige, 63, was stabbed in the neck by an ex-girlfriend during a domestic dispute at a southside apartment complex in Battle Creek, Mich. Blige reportedly confronted the woman and accused her of slashing his tires.

When police found Blige in his apartment, he had been stabbed three times, including one neck injury. The Battle Creek Enquirer said he underwent surgery at a hospital nearby Kalamazoo, Mich., and WOOD reports that he is in critical condition.

Police arrested the woman, who was wearing blood-splattered clothing, at her nearby apartment on Thursday. She was taken into custody and treated at a local hospital for a cut. According to the Battle Creek Enquirer, she has been jailed pending her arraignment Friday in Calhoun County.

There have reportedly been at least seven domestic violence complaints between Blige and his former girlfriend, who reportedly entered a no-contest plea after being charged with aggravated domestic violence against him last October and was sentenced to six months probation.

Blige has previously described her father as a jazz musician and Vietnam War veteran who suffered from post-traumatic stress syndrome. According to Biography.com, Thomas Blige abused her mother. "He left us when I was 4, but he'd come back from time to time and abuse her some more," she reportedly said.

In her song, "Father In You," Blige sang, "When I was a little girl, I didn't have a father / And that's why I'm leaning on you."

Beats Music's '90s Hip-Hop Concert Unites Dr. Dre, Eminem, Nas, Others

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dr. Dre's powerful rolodex was put to good use for the launch of Beats Music with a concert featuring Eminem, Diddy and Nas.

Nineties hip-hop was the party's theme Friday night at Los Angeles' Belasco Theatre. Eminem and Dre closed the night, performing the hits "My Name Is," ''Forgot About Dre" and "Lose Yourself." Paul McCartney, Drake, Selena Gomez and Macklemore were among those who attended.

Mase reunited onstage with Diddy to perform "Mo Money Mo Problems," while Blackstreet joined Dre for "No Diggity," which the rapper produced.

Beats Music, a streaming service set to compete with Spotify, iTunes Radio and others, launched Tuesday.

Other performers included Busta Rhymes, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Arrested Development, Method Man, Redman and Scarface.

Eminem's "Bezerk" is nominated for best rap performance at Sunday's Grammy Awards.

Carole King MusiCares Tribute Attracts James Taylor, Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga And More A-Listers

0

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Carole King's gift as a songwriter is all about connection — friends, lovers, strangers experiencing deep emotions not often exposed to each other.

Over the decades, King has made that connection with untold millions of fans. Some of those fans came out to honor the songwriter as MusiCares person of the year Friday night as part of the build up to Sunday's Grammy Awards. Among them, lifelong friend James Taylor, Gloria Estefan, Alicia Keys and Lady Gaga, who thanked King for getting her through some difficult years before she found fame as a songwriter herself. Gaga told the crowd she used to lock herself in her father's man room as a high school student and listen to "You've Got a Friend" over and over.

"And I would crank up this song so loud," Gaga said as she sat at a white baby grand piano in the center of the room wearing steampunk sunglasses and a flowing white dress. "And I really believed so much, Carole, that you were my friend. So thank you so much for the way you sing right to us in your music."

Toward the end of the song, Gaga modified the lyrics: "You've got a friend, yes you do, Carole, I love you."

Lady Gaga earned the first of a handful of standing ovations at the annual event, a fundraiser benefiting The Recording Academy's musician-oriented charity.

A silent auction and other activities before the dinner and concert raised $5.5 million and the audience pushed that number higher before the singing started with a live auction that included $120,000 for a copy of King's landmark "Tapestry" album on vinyl with a set of lyrics handwritten by King. Zac Brown bought an Acura specially equipped in honor of the event for $70,000, and the car maker kicked in an extra $30,000 to the charity.

Estefan, a former MusiCares person of the year, sang "It's Too Late," and told the crowd "Tapestry" was "the No.1 most impactful" album she'd ever heard. Keys nailed "Natural Woman," a song most identified with Aretha Franklin, also modifying the lyrics at the end to pay tribute to King. And Train's Pat Monahan left the stage to serenade the 71-year-old singer-songwriter directly on "I Feel the Earth Move."

Many of the night's most interesting performances came from the pairing of artists. Album of the year nominee Sara Bareilles, Jason Mraz and Zac Brown joined together on a stripped-down "Beautiful." Will.I.Am was joined on stage by protege Leah McFall and added a rapped verse to King's "Love Makes the World." Miranda Lambert, Jennifer Nettles, Amy Grant and Martina McBride joined together in a medley of songs. King's daughter, Louise Goffin, and Jakob Dylan sang "Going Back." And Miguel and Kacey Musgraves dueted on "I'll Do My Crying in the Rain," a song King and Taylor performed together.

King also was in a collaborative mood. She brought a pair of Egyptian musicians on stage to add an Arabic flavor to "Home Again." Taylor joined her next, finishing the evening as a part of her band.

"As a songwriter my dream was always and still is to hear great singers perform my songs," King told the crowd. "It does not get any better than this folks."

Justin Bieber Grins As He Leaves His Miami Mansion Amidst Conflicting Drag Racing Reports

Justin Bieber was seen leaving his rented Miami mansion Friday night (Jan. 24), one day after being arrested and released for drag racing and a DUI.

Bieber seemed to be in a good mood, grinning and waving to the many fans who swarmed his house and SUV.

The pop star, who compared himself to the late King of Pop Michael Jackson earlier in the day on Instagram, took to Twitter later to address his beliebers.




Meanwhile, conflicting reports regarding the 19-year-old's cause for arrest have been making the rounds. After the severity of his blood alcohol level was refuted, it is now unclear whether Bieber was in fact drag racing before being pulled over.

TMZ reports that Bieber and his friend, R&B singer Khalil, who was also arrested that night, were actually driving under the speed limit.

According to TMZ, the place where Justin and Khalil rented the cars attached a GPS device that also tracks speed. The GPS tracked the two singers' speed right before the arrest at 27 MPH, despite the police report claims that they were driving at an "approximate speed of about 55-60 MPH" in a 30-MPH zone.

Adding to the confusion, CBS Miami obtained surveillance footage of the moments before Bieber's arrest. According to the news outlet, "the home surveillance video shows a yellow Lamborghini speeding down Pine Tree Drive on Miami Beach with a black Cadillac Escalade next to it. ... Just behind, a red Ferrari followed by another black Cadillac Escalade and five seconds later, a Miami Beach police car."

With a successful acting career and numerous accolades under her belt, what's next for Goldie Hawn?

"There's so much left. You know if you lose wonder, you've lost everything," she told HuffPost Live from Davos on Saturday. "So I can't tell you what I'm going to be wondrous about tomorrow, but I live now, and what I'm living right now is the world of wellness, helping as much as I can, being the voice and the creator of more applications and more ways to access happiness."

On Thursday, Hawn led a panel on mindfulness at the World Economic Forum annual meeting. "Central to our work and our goal of finding solutions to global problems is the concept of mindfulness, a technique for focusing attention objectively on the here and now," she wrote in a World Economic Forum blog. "The ability to remain calm and focused in stressful situations is central to making positive decisions."

'Orange Is The New Black' Season 2 Photos Reveal Nothing, But They're Delightful Nonetheless (UPDATED)

Anything related to "Orange Is The New Black" is bound to make us go bonkers, even these behind-the-scenes photos that tell us absolutely nothing about Season 2.

On Saturday (Jan. 25), the show tweeted that it would post exclusive photos from the "Orange Is The New Black" Season 2 photo shoot on its Instagram account. Below are the photos, and though they don't reveal anything about the Netflix original's new plots, they certainly get us psyched for the show's return.

No sign of Laura Prepon just yet, but we know her character, Alex, will be back for at least four episodes. Just kidding, she's back! According to Taylor Schilling, Season 2 will take viewers deeper with the characters than the first season did. "It's just getting fuller and richer and, to me, more compelling," she said on HuffPost Live.

Based on these few photos, we can't wait.




















We'll keep tabs on the show's Instagram account, so check back for more behind-the-scenes "Orange Is The New Black" photos.

Directors Guild Of America Award Winner Could Get Edge In Tight Oscar Race

0
0
LOS ANGELES (AP) — With the tightest three-way Oscar race in years, the 66th Annual Directors Guild of America Awards could give "Gravity," ''American Hustle" or "12 Years a Slave" the edge in the home stretch to the Oscars.

The DGA hands out awards for best director in TV and movie categories in Los Angeles on Saturday night in what customarily is a final calling for the film that wins the best picture and director Oscars. Coming out of the recent flurry of Hollywood honors, Alfonso Cuaron's space saga "Gravity," David O. Russell's con caper "American Hustle" and Steve McQueen's historical epic "12 Years a Slave" all remain in competitive positions as they head for the March 2 Academy Awards.

Yet the DGA could further complicate the race by choosing still-viable nominees Paul Greengrass ("Captain Phillips") or Martin Scorsese ("The Wolf of Wall Street") for its top honor — outstanding directorial achievement in a feature film.

But so far, the outcomes in this year's Oscar derby make that unlikely.

The cast of "American Hustle" took home the award for outstanding performance at the SAG Awards last Saturday, just a week after it gained momentum from its best comedy win at the Golden Globes. Then last Sunday, the Producers Guild of America — a usually reliable Oscar bellwether — produced a tie between "12 Years a Slave" and "Gravity" for its top prize. Meanwhile, "American Hustle" and "Gravity" tied for a leading 10 Oscar nominations on Jan. 16, with "12 Years a Slave" close behind with nine. Each was nominated for best picture.

In the 65-year history of the DGA awards, the winner has failed to also take home the best director Oscar only seven times. Ben Affleck won the guild award last year for "Argo" but was denied a best director nomination at the Oscars. However, like many DGA winners, "Argo" went on to win the best-picture prize at the Oscars.

The DGA and Oscar feature director contenders usually match up closely and this year is no exception, other than for Alexander Payne's "Nebraska," which received an Oscar bid, but was denied a DGA nod.

This year marks the first DGA nomination for McQueen and if he wins for "12 Years a Slave," he would become the first black director to earn the guild's feature film accolade.

Cuaron and Greengrass are also first-time DGA nominees.

Other than the Writer's Guild Awards on Feb. 1, there are no major awards before the Oscars. Hollywood's high season goes quiet for a few weeks as several thousand members of the motion picture academy have the last word with their balloting.

Saturday night's untelevised DGA awards will be hosted by Jane Lynch. Presenters will include Affleck, Sandra Bullock, Tom Hanks, Don Cheadle, Kerry Washington, Anna Kendrick, Steve Coogan and Bill Hader.

Joanna Krupa's Sheer Dress Might Be The Most Risqué Garment We've Ever Seen On The Red Carpet

And we thought Paris Hilton's panty-less gown was risque.

"Real Housewives of Miami" star Joanna Krupa attended two events Friday night (Jan. 24) in one very, very sheer dress.

Krupa showed up to the OK! Magazine pre-Grammy party at Lure Nightclub in Hollywood and the Friends 'N' Family 17th Annual Pre-Grammy Party at the Park Plaza Hotel in LA and she definitely stole the show, wearing a black and mesh floor-length number reminiscent of Jaimie Alexander's head-turning piece, only ... with more cleavage (yeah, we didn't think that was possible, either).

This isn't the first time the 34-year-old model has worn a rather see-through outfit in public. In 2012, she wore a beaded shirt sans bra to a night on the town.

See the NSFW-ish photos below:
