Lady Gaga’s much anticipated new video, Telephone featuring Beyonce was just released last night and wow. I am still not sure of what to say.. BUT, it is crazy shock value to be sure. Um, very much on the raunchy side. So beware. This one packs some serious punch.

This is one of the most random bits of celebrity trivia I’ve ever learned: Kirstie Alley keeps lemurs for pets! I was hoping they’d be roaming freely through her house, but no… they live in an enclosure in the yard. And she takes being a lemur mommy seriously. She has two full time caretakers for her lemurs and has written them into her will:
“These guys live 40 years — they are in my will…They are totally in my will because, you know, who would take care of them?”
We will no doubt see much more of the lemurs in Kirstie’s new show, Kirstie Alley’s Big Life, premiering March 21 on A&E. I might actually end up watching this show just for the lemurs!

Wow. This night sure got here all of the sudden! The American Idol Top 12 contestants have now been chosen by YOU America. This is where the ‘fun’ really begins. It’s time to see some different genres and see what these Top 12 can do when the are pushed out of their comfort zones. I am so excited for the Top 12 to get it on!
Scott MacIntyre and Matt Giraud did the ‘half-time show’ on a dueling piano and did a great job. Loved seeing them back on that stage. Well done guys!

Katelyn Epperly, Todrick Hall, Alex Lambert, and Lily Scott were sent home after not receiving enough of America’s vote to keep them in the running for the American Idol 2010 crown. And that leaves Didi Benami, Siobhan Magnus, Paige Miles, Casey James, Tim Urban, Lee Dewyze, Crystal Bowersox (who I don’t think could have looked less thrilled), Michael “Big Mike” Lynche, Lacey Brown, Aaron Kelly, Andrew Garcia, and Katie Stevens as our Top 12!!
Let the good times roll…have fun with it and just be you!!

Alice in Wonderland had a huge opening this past weekend (March 5 – 7, 2010) with $116 million! It broke the record for the biggest 3D opening ever, biggest March opening ever and even the biggest IMAX opening ever. Too bad the movie wasn’t very good. In second place was the new drama Brooklyn’s Finest which opened with $13 million. Nothing else opened in the top ten.

Blu-ray is the new standard, DVD is on its way out and every week they are releasing many films on the relatively new format. Here’s the full list of Blu-ray movies out this week on March 9th, 2010.
This week the highlights are the incredibly entertaining film Up in the Air and the intense and powerful Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire. People will also be interested in the much lower class film Old Dogs.

Last night on American Idol, the Top 8 guys took the stage and one of them blew everyone away. Michael Lynche (Big Mike) brought Kara to tears singing, This Woman’s Work straight from the heart. He just set the bar SO high, I hope the other guys can reach it!

Casey James also impressed me (as usual) but didn’t seem to get any real love from the judges. Keith Urban is hot, Casey James is hot… it made sense to me!

America’s Best Dance Crew judge Shane Sparks has pled “not guilty” to eight counts of child molestation. He was busted in December for the molestation charges.
Sparks and hi lawyer are claiming that this is a “Hollywood style” extortion attempt and will have to prove that when he lands back in court on April 20.

Four pill bottles were found in Corey Haim’s mother’s apartment where he collapsed and died yesterday. According to TMZ, the drugs included hydrocodone (Vicodin), diazepam (Valium), haloperidol (an antipsychotic med) and Soma (a muscle relaxer). One well known doctor prescribed all of the meds just a few days before Corey Haim died.
The L.A. County Coroner’s Office did not specify how many pills had been taken or any further details.
