A Night With George Lopez Is No Longer Available

The Huffington Post is reporting that TBS has made the "difficult decision" to not renew LOPEZ TONIGHT for a 3rd season. Considering that Lopez was the only Latino to host a talk show in who knows how long (OR EVER for that matter), it is unfortunate that another show is biting the dust.

Also, does this mean that Conan will get that timeslot? Remember, George Lopez agreed to push his show BACK in order for Conan to come on at an earlier time. All this shifting around seems a bit familiar, doesn't it?

A Return for Dancing is in the works

The New York Post is reporting that DIRTY DANCING, the popular 1980s movie that starred Jennifer Grey and the late Patrick Swayze, will be the next recipient of a modern day remake.

High School Musical wrangler Kenny Ortega will be overseeing the production/directing of the remake. with all the 1980s remakes being released, will you be having the time of your life when the remake is released, or do you think some babies should be put in a corner for eternity?

The Return of Evanescence ... is it "What You Want" ?

A FemmeMinajMonster Invasion in Atlantic City

We all know that Britney Spears's tour with NERVO, JESSE AND THE TOYBOYS and NICKI MINAJ is possibly THE hottest ticket this summer ... so how can it come up to match the hotness of the Heatwave this season?: Throw in a Monster in the mix


Last night at the Atlantic City stop of the Femme Fatale Tour, Lady GaGa was in the building and watched "The Legendary Miss Britney Spears (or let me quote a friend when he sent the photo to me at 2:31am: "Gaga giving in to the Legend at the Femme Fatale Show"). Britney took time out of the concert to shine the light on Gaga and they both exchanged kisses and hearts (and a bow a la Gaga) in the process as you can (somewhat) see in some videos posted on YouTube





So, how much fun did Monther Monster have at the show. Well according to two of her dancers (Luke Broadlick and Marco DaSilva) that tweeted post show:

Luke Broadlick: Dope show tonight. @LadyGaGa came out to watch. Was fun seeing her dance with us out there! #FemmeFataleTour

Marco DaSilva: Hey Monsters ure momma @ladygaga was at our @britneyspears Show 2nite & we had so much fun having her!She looked as she was having a blast

Lady Gaga reportedly danced to "I Wanna Go" as well as many other Britney hits. Britney also acknowledged Gaga DURING her concert as well as sending a tweet after the show: "So amazing to have the beautiful @LadyGaga at the show in AC tonight. Love You, Girl. -Britney"

While this may be makig news to many Britney and Gaga Fans, this is actually not the first time they have sent some love to each other:

• Last year, Britney actually attended (but left early) a show of The Monster's Ball
• Britney has tweeted about actuall MEETING Lady GaGa (which i know exists, i just have to find it)
• on a recent AMPRadio interview with Carson Daly: Gaga briefly being "jealous" of Carson Daly when she would see Britney up at the TRL studios

Now that we know that two great pop artists can show support to each other, maybe rivalries between the two fanbases can come to a halt so that others won't have to vent out their frustration about it. Also, is this some type of kickoff to a possible collab in the near future?

TV Might Just Become A Bit Less Desperate

This seems to be a summer of breakups and separation in my personal life (not by me, but by my friends and colleagues and acquaintances around me, pretty sad and all) .... and now some of your favorite women on TV might be heading out as well.

TvLine Contributor Nellie Andreeva (as well as numerous sources) is reporting that ABC will be annoucing on August 7th the end of its Sunday Night MegaHit "Desperate Housewives". Marc Cherry is no longer the EP of the show, but rather a consultant for the (tentative, not yet officially announced) final season. Desperate Housewives brought back the Primetime Soap Opera to a night that usually does not do well in ratings (Sunday seems to be the "whatever is on" mode for many networks ... see: NBC)

If this is correct about DHs final season, what do you think? Will you miss the Ladies of Wisteria Lane?

Anne Hathaway: The CATWOMAN

It's time for mugshots, motorbikes and kitty treats! SELINA KLE IS BACK! Warner Brothers has now released more promotional shots of the new Batman movie "THE DARK KNIGHT RISES".

Brazil's Latest Festival: Heterosexual Pride Day

Photo courtesy of SomeECards.com

Get out your sports talk, crack open a can/bottle of beer and fire up the frustrations of your upcoming wedding that you didn't have to fight for since you are straight: HETEROSEXUAL PRIDE DAY IS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!!!

The Sao Paulo Council recently adopted a legistation for Heterosexual Pride Day to have its inaugural annual celebration in December (the 3rd Sunday of December: just in case you wanted to go ahead and clear your schedule.)

So why the day you might ask? Well, for one: I think that my heterosexuals have been wanting this for a while ... you know: the ones that kind of complain that "Why Is There A Gay Pride and not a straight one?" Of course, most are joking (others aren't which is a bit disturbing) but I dont think that straight people had to worry about horrendous treatment by society and having to go to bars to worry about being arrested.

Also, the funny thing about this is the REASONING for Heterosexual Pride Day as one counsilman put it as: ""not anti-gay, but a protest against the privileges the gay community enjoys.""

You can check out more info of the Legislation and even the concerns from The Brazilian LGBT Association by clicking here .... after you buy your tickets to Brazil of course ;)

The Italian Invasion of The Jersey Shore Begins Tonight

As we all know by now and have known for months now: The Tanned Titans Of The TriState Area filmed their latest season of insanity and liquid swapping in Italy. Season 4 of the Jersey Shore will finally premiere tonight on 30 Year Old / Not wanting to really acknowledge its 30th birthday network MTV.

The cast was shown in a segment on last nights' ABC News NIGHTLINE. If you missed it, you can watch it below ... & does anyone find it pretty funny that former MTV Reporter Chris Connelly is the one interviewing them? The circle of MTV just seems to follow him everywhere .....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, TONY BENNETT

Photo courtesy of the Tony Bennett FaceBook Page

There was a boy I met when I was about 19/20 when i lived in California. I was just out of the closet and just trying to talk to boys. Nothing ever happened between the guy and I and i would see him at his job and get all giggles and nervous and all. For some reason, i thought that was the end of me. Then, my friend Dave sat me down in his office and played the song posted below ...



... it was then when i felt SO much better, listening to this AMAZING voice and heartfelt lyrics, but i had NO idea who the guy was. Yes, i know: i should have already known who Tony Bennett was, but growing up in Texas surrounded by Tejano Music and Mexican influences everywhere tends to keep you in a state of mind of one direction. I think of Tony everytime I think of San Francisco, I play his music when i just want to take a break from chill house music or just need some me time to get away from it all, I think the WORLD of Tony.

I fell in love with Tony Bennett since that day in 2002/2003 and he is by far one of my absolute favorite male singers OF ALL TIME (He is actually tied with GEORGE MICHAEL ... just in case you wanted to know). Today, August 3rd 2011 marks his 85TH BIRTHDAY!!! He is in no way slowing down as his new DUETS album is set for release soon, which will feature duets with Lady Gaga, Mariah Carey, Carrie Underwood, Aretha Frankin, the late Amy Winehouse and MANY more.

Check out a great video by many of his fellow performers below (many of them, if not all of them in the birthday wishes video will be doing a duet with Tony) as well as a personal toast from Lady Gaga herself.
