Based on the reviews I’ve read of the documentary Bully, the MPAA’s decision to uphold an R rating that excludes the target audience seems one of the ratings board’s more absurd judgements. Releasing unrated is a gamble, and The Weinstein Co co-chairman Harvey Weinstein and his team tried to stack their odds by taking to Twitter, and the response was resounding. They’ve reached over 105 million followers from individual tweets and another 10 million from organizations. Among the celebs who’ve participated in tweeting the film are: Justin Timberlake, Jessica Simpson, Mariah Carey, Jonah Hill, Katy Perry, Piers Morgan, Joel McHale, Jimmy Fallon, Ryan Seacrest, Kristen Bell, Ricky Martin, Arianna Huffington, Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel, Kate Bosworth, Kerry Washington, Brad Wollack, Rachel Zoe, Hugh Jackman, Rosie O’Donnell, Chelsea Handler, Khloe Kardashian Odom, Kim Kardashian, Paula Abdul, Kathy Griffin, Jeri Ryan, Jay Manuel, Alyssa Milano, Mandy Moore,...

After last week’s lesson in the dangers of playing with matches, the latest edition of Spartacus: Vengeance opens with a series of reunions, ranging from very happy to mildly happy to really completely not-so-happy, all caused by Spartacus and crew returning victorious from bringing down the arena in Capua.
Happy reunion: everyone’s favorite new gay power couple, Agron and Nasir, get all smoochy and sweet when Agron returns from Capua (take that, David and Neil Patrick!).
Mildly happy reunion: Crixus and Naevia have their big moment when they reunite, but signs indicate that there may be trouble ahead.
Really completely not-so-happy reunion: Gannicus waits patiently by Oenomaus’ bedside, hoping he recovers enough so they can talk, but not enough so that Oenomaus can kick his well-deserving derriere up and down the mountainside.
Gannicus, of course, is proving to be the proverbial muscled-up, hunky fly in the ointment. Back...

Whitney Houston was pronounced dead Saturday in Beverly Hills, California at 48 years old. Reaction from the entertainment world to the loss of the legendary singer has been swift.
Beyonce released a statement that reads, "The loss of Whitney Houston is painful. I remember meeting Whitney for the first time when I was 15. She was the ultimate legend. The ultimate woman. Not only was she confident, poised, stunningly beautiful and intelligent, but she was sincere and kind. She took the time to make everyone feel like they were very important to her. I, like every singer, always wanted to be just like her. Her voice was perfect. Strong but soothing. Soulful and classic. Her vibrato, her cadence, her control. So many of my life's memories are attached to a Whitney Houston song. She is our queen and she opened doors and provided a blueprint for all of us. God bless her."

The stories are there, but it’s like we’ve moved into a house before all the construction has finished. But keep checking www.forbes.com on a regular basis as Grammy weekend proceeds.
And basically, I’m just back from the first of three marathon nights of music: the Paul McCartney MusiCares Person of the Year dinner. I was backstage after the show with the survivors–the show was long, and the most complex I’ve ever seen in the football field sized La Convention Center.

Things I don’t want to see ever again on The X Factor: Two-hour commercials promoting Adam Sandler’s latest “film.” Any/all of the judges channeling Randy Jackson in their critiques; back-critiquing performances they praised in the previous week; trying to take credit for their rival mentors’ successes; and smiling smugly as if it was them, not their contestants, who hit those big-ass notes. Adherence to “theme weeks” that are flimsier than Paula Abdul’s non-electronically enhanced singing voice. Promotion of the idea that a Pepsi commercial is the single greatest signifier of musical success. And Steve Jones giggling the word “whoopsie!

Nine years ago, a brutally honest record exec named Simon Cowell was so vicious as a judge on a new musical talent show that a few performers he rudely rejected came after him with baseball bats. Fellow judge Paula Abdul was so put out by his rough treatment of young singers that at one point during the first season, she stormed off the set threatening to quit. The third judge, Randy Jackson, once could be seen standing up angrily behind the judges' table, looking like he was going to clobber Cowell.

Okay....What!?Paula Abdul was never the most likely candidate to become a professional singing judge. Her own singing abilities were highly questionable, and her experience as a choreographer never really came into play on "American Idol." But as a Grammy Award winning and platinum-selling recording artist, she at least sort of fit in with the likes of veteran producer and musician Randy Jackson, talent scout Simon Cowell and singer/songwriter Kara DioGuardi. So what exactly could Fox have in mind by bringing comedienne turned talk-show host Ellen DeGeneres to the show?According to Ellen, not a whole lot."I'm ...
