Taylor covers Wonderland magazine

0

Heartbreak kid Taylor Swift says she has no direction after her break up with One Direction’s Harry Styles.

The serial celeb dater admits dreams of wedding bells and babies are all up in the air after hinting she was partly to blame for the fall of her latest high profile romance back in January.

‘If you go through life needing to feel like the good guy all the time, you’re just delusional,’ said the US songbird.

Hinting she and Hazza were stuck on amber, she continued: ‘Relationships are like traffic lights. And I just have this theory that I can only exist in a relationship if it’s a green light.’

Now, the We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together singer reveals how she has been cast adrift.

‘I’ve kind of realised that I have no idea where I’m going to be next year, or in six months, or in two months,’ the 23-year-old told Wonderland magazine.

‘I mean, I know where I’ll be on tour in two months, but no idea where I’m going to be mentally, emotionally, dreams, goals, wishes, hopes. I have no idea if I’m going to get married or be single forever or have a family or just be on my own. You know, paint in a cottage by the ocean by myself. I just have no idea and I’m kind of into that.’

Talking about heartbreak the star said: ‘It’s very complex; you’re never feeling just sad. Maybe you wake up and you feel sad, and then you get angry, and then you feel like ‘I’m fine’, and then you feel confident, and then you feel a sense of doubt, and then you’re insecure, and then there’s jealousy, and then you’re back to sad – and then you feel fine again.’

For now, the singer hopes the next surprise that 2013 dishes up is a good one.

‘So even if, you know, you go through difficult things, hard things, unexpected things that kind of knock you over for a second, I think the year 2013, that has to mean that things are happening for a reason, right?’

Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder joined Queens Of The Stone Age onstage in Santiago, Chile on Saturday night (April 6).

Vedder accompanied the band on cowbell and backing vocals during the song 'Little Sister', taken from the Queens Of The Stone Age's fourth album, 'Lullabies To Paralyze'. Click above to watch footage of the performance.

"A wonderful musician and a great human being, Mr Eddie Vedder," says Queens Of The Stone Age frontman Joshua Homme as he introduces the Pearl Jam man to the audience. As Vedder leaves the stage, Homme jokes that "he trained the cowbell at [New York performing arts school] Juilliard".

The gig was part of the Lollapalooza Chile festival, which also saw sets from Pearl Jam, The Black Keys, Deadmau5, Franz Ferdinand, Foals, The Hives, Crystal Castles, Passion Pit and Alabama Shakes.

Queens Of The Stone Age will release their forthcoming new album '…Like Clockwork' on June 3.

The band premiered the studio version of the album's first single 'My God Is The Sun' on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show this evening (April 8). Speaking about the album, Joshua Homme told Lowe: "I feel like a weight made of monkeys has lifted off my shoulders."

'My God Is The Sun' is streaming now at QOTSA.com.

'…Like Clockwork' is made up of 10-tracks and was produced by Joshua Homme and the band at Pink Duck in Burbank, California. It was recorded by Mark Rankin with additional engineering by Justin Smith.

The album contains a list of guest stars, including Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner, Dave Grohl, Elton John, Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor, and Jake Shears of Scissor Sisters.

Lindsay Lohan Pal: ‘I Fear For Her Life If She Goes To Coachella’

Lindsay Lohan‘s plans to attend the upcoming Coachella music festival has one of her best friends, Claus Hjelmbak, fearing for the actress because of the temptation to abuse alcohol and drugs, and tells RadarOnline.com exclusively, “I fear for her life if she goes to the festival.”

lindsay-lohan-coachella-2

Hjelmbak, a Danish celebrity promoter, has been friends with Lohan for years, and has decided to go public with his fears because he says it’s the only way he can get the actresses’ attention.

“Lindsay is in a very dark place right now, and I’m absolutely scared for her life. Coachella is the last place she needs to be. For someone struggling with addiction, like Lindsay, the amount of drugs and alcohol at Coachella is just a recipe for disaster waiting to happen. I know because I have been to the VIP tent at Coachella in the past. Lindsay can turn it around, but she has to look deep inside herself and get the help she needs,” Claus tells us.

As previously reported, during the last minute plea talks between Lindsay Lohan‘s attorney, Mark Heller, and prosecutors handling her lying to cops case, the wayward actress told him to keep her out of rehab until AFTER the Coachella music festival so she could attend.

“Lindsay was adamant that she not be forced to go to rehab until after the Coachella (Valley Music and Arts Festival) in the Palm Springs area on successive weekends in April. Lindsay LOVES going to the musical festival, and she’s determined to go this year. She didn’t want a little thing like rehab to get in her way of attending. Linds refused to sign off on any deal that would have prevented her from going to Coachella. It’s that important to her, for some strange reason,” a told us.

Lohan has attended the Coachella music festival in 2010, 2011, and 2012. This year’s festivities take place on April 12, 14, 19, 21, and the line-up includes the Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Lumineers, Moby, and the Airborne Toxic Event.

During a plea deal that Lohan reached in her lying to cops case, the actress was ordered to enroll in a rehab facility, by no later than early May. This will be Lohan’s SIXTH trip to rehab since 2007, and she’s spent a total of 250 days getting treatment for alcohol and prescription drug abuse.

Claus has choice words for the crowd Lindsay is surrounding herself with.

“The people associated with Lindsay right now are a very bad influence on her. They are only using her because they love to be around a celebrity. Lindsay needs to cut off ties with these losers because they are bringing her down. I may have had my differences with her father, Michael, but at least he is trying to do something to help her. Lindsay’s father is the only person trying desperately to help his daughter, he gets it.

“I wish Lindsay would go to rehab right now, and not wait until the last possible moment. I want Lindsay to know I’m here for her, and that I just want her to get help before it’s too late,” Hjelmbak says.

New "Star Trek Into Darkness" Poster Featuring You Know Who.

0

Benedict Cumberbatch can do no wrong these days. The entire poster for Star Trek Into Darkness revolves around his character John Harrison and the destruction he inflicts on Earth.

Not only is he the star of the poster, he narrates the trailer. We are introduced to his character with him saying, “Your commanders have committed a crime I cannot forgive. None of you are safe. Have I got your attention now?”

Yes, you have it John. Oy.

What stands out to you in the poster itself? Notice the Gherkin is on fire … that can’t be good.

Cumberbatch’s character is definitely not a good guy but we can’t help but be drawn to him. He has this intriguing way about him well, minus the destroying Earth part.

The Most Offensive Movie Characters of All Time

Mr. Yunioshi, 'Breakfast at Tiffany's'
Unfortunately, racist and otherwise offensive characters are commonplace in American film. For example, Mr. Yunioshi in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's was an over-the-top racist portrayal of a Japanese man, played by the white actor Mickey Rooney in yellowface. Everything from his buck teeth to his squinty eyes to his accent are extremely awkward to watch nowadays. It's hard to believe that this type of thing was once considered funny!

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
Uncle Remus, 'Song of the South'
'Song of the South' is an early Disney film that was banned from DVD production due to its offensive and racist material. Uncle Remus is a kindly old African American man who appears to believe that everything in life is hunky-dory, despite the fact that slavery had existed not too long before he told the tale of 'Briar Rabbit and the Tar Baby.'

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
Rosemary Shanahan, 'Shallow Hal'
This film, which was supposedly intended to spread a positive message about inner beauty, spent most of its running time putting down overweight people everywhere with its crass fat jokes and offensive visual gags. Just like every other film in existence, 'Shallow Hal' perpetuates the idea that thin is good and fat is bad and deserving of mistreatment and bullying.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
Mammy and Prissy, 'Gone with the Wind'
In 'Gone with the Wind,' which takes place during the days of slavery in the southern states, depicts the African American house slaves in an extremely stereotypical light. On top of that, they almost seem happy to be slaves! That may have been the case for some house servants during that time period, but the movie glorifies the south in such a way that you might think slavery wasn't such a bad thing after all.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic
Jar Jar Binks, 'The Phantom Menace'
Jar Jar Binks may not be human and have a certain skin color, but his mannerisms and speech seem to be modeled on stereotypical and racist views of African Americans. Not only is the character completely pointless and annoying, but it's offensive, too!

Pretty Little Liars star Parker Bagley pleads guilty to larceny!!!

A former star on "Pretty Little Liars" pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor larceny Monday and agreed to pay nearly $7,000 to his old gal pal.

Parker Bagley, 23, who is off the hit ABC Family show and is focusing on music career, copped to one count of petit larceny after prosecutors said he took two iPads, a blackberry, an iPod, jewelry and other items from the woman's E. 34th St. apartment on Oct. 15, after an overnight stay.

Bagley paid about half of the restitution amount on Monday and owes the rest by June 10, according to the deal struck in Manhattan Criminal Court.

The actor-musician said he's devoting time to his music.

"I’m just glad they didn't find the bodies," he mused after taking the plea. "I'm committing crimes and trying not to get caught anymore -- that's the trick."

He declined to discuss what led to the charges in his case but said he was "not in the right place."

He had faced a third-degree grand larceny charge, which would have carried up to seven years in prison.

Margaret Thatcher 'Ding Dong' chart campaign takes off

0
0

Margaret Thatcher's death has prompted the launch of a campaign to get 'Ding Dong! The Witch is Dead' to number one.
The song from the classic 1939 film The Wizard of Oz starring Judy Garland was written by EY Harburg and composed by Harold Arlen.
The "Make 'Ding dong the Witch is Dead' number 1 the week Thatcher dies" Facebook campaign was originally set up in 2007
The song's lyrics trended on Twitter throughout Monday (April 8) following Thatcher's death at the age of 87.
Garland's version has risen up to as high as number 26 on the iTunes download chart as of Tuesday morning.
However, the campaign asks people to download Ella Fitzgerald's version, as Garland's original may be too short to qualify for the official chart.
On Amazon, Garland has climbed to number three, while Fitzgerald has climbed to number eight.
Baroness Thatcher's death has sparked a fresh debate about her legacy and how she should be remembered for her time as Conservative leader.
While the likes of David Cameron and Lord Alan Sugar praised the former Prime Minister, stars such as Morrissey have been critical.
Several hundred people took to the streets in south London on Monday evening to celebrate Thatcher's death with alcohol and dancing.

The World Minus Mainland China Bids Adieu to Windows Live Messenger Today

0
0


We’ve known about Microsoft’s intent to sunset its aging Windows Live Messenger instant messaging software in favor of its Skype VoIP service for quite some time now. The company has sent out offers for those who upgrade in an attempt to quickly move people from the old service to the new. The day has finally arrived when all users will be migrated.

Windows Live Messenger has survived through a number of Windows operating systems (read about the history of Windows Live Messenger) and still managed to retain its status as the world’s most popular instant messaging icon. It was also one of the first pieces of software to experiment with voice over IP calling and the service must be credited for pioneering a whole new frontier that used to be dominated greatly by companies such as AOL with AOL Instant Messenger and Yahoo with Yahoo! Messenger.

If you haven’t yet upgraded, you’d better hurry. Starting today, you will no longer be able to connect to the Windows Live Messenger service.

Good night,sweet prince

'Zero TV' Homes Are Really Starting To Worry Broadcasters

0

r-ZERO-TV-large570

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Some people have had it with TV. They've had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don't like timing their lives around network show schedules. They're tired of $100-plus monthly bills.

A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don't even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. These people are watching shows and movies on the Internet, sometimes via cellphone connections. Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from 2 million in 2007.

Winning back the Zero TV crowd will be one of the many issues broadcasters discuss at their national meeting, called the NAB Show, taking place this week in Las Vegas.

While show creators and networks make money from this group's viewing habits through deals with online video providers and from advertising on their own websites and apps, broadcasters only get paid when they relay such programming in traditional ways. Unless broadcasters can adapt to modern platforms, their revenue from Zero TV viewers will be zero.

"Getting broadcast programing on all the gizmos and gadgets — like tablets, the backseats of cars, and laptops — is hugely important," says Dennis Wharton, a spokesman for the National Association of Broadcasters.


Although Wharton says more than 130 TV stations in the U.S. are broadcasting live TV signals to mobile devices, few people have the tools to receive them. Most cellphones require an add-on device known as a dongle, but these gadgets are just starting to be sold.

Among this elusive group of consumers is Jeremy Carsen Young, a graphic designer, who is done with traditional TV. Young has a working antenna sitting unplugged on his back porch in Roanoke, Va., and he refuses to put it on the roof.

"I don't think we'd use it enough to justify having a big eyesore on the house," the 30-year-old says.

Online video subscriptions from Netflix Inc. and Amazon.com Inc. — which cost less than $15 a month combined — have given him and his partner plenty to watch. They take in back episodes of AMC's "The Walking Dead" and The CW's "Supernatural," and they don't need more, he says.


He doesn't mind waiting as long as a year for the current season's episodes to appear on streaming services, even if his friends accidently blurt out spoilers in the meantime. With regular television, he might have missed the latest developments, anyway.

"By the time it gets to me to watch, I've kind of forgotten about that," he says.

For the first time, TV ratings giant Nielsen took a close look at this category of viewer in its quarterly video report released in March. It plans to measure their viewing of new TV shows starting this fall, with an eye toward incorporating the results in the formula used to calculate ad rates.

"Our commitment is to being able to measure the content wherever it is," says Dounia Turrill, Nielsen's senior vice president of insights.

The Zero TV segment is increasingly important, because the number of people signing up for traditional TV service has slowed to a standstill in the U.S.

Last year, the cable, satellite and telecoms providers added just 46,000 video customers collectively, according to research firm SNL Kagan. That is tiny when compared to the 974,000 new households created last year. While it's still 100.4 million homes, or 84.7 percent of all households, it's down from the peak of 87.3 percent in early 2010.


Nielsen's study suggests that this new group may have left traditional TV for good. While three-quarters actually have a physical TV set, only 18 percent are interested in hooking it up through a traditional pay TV subscription.

Zero TVers tend to be younger, single and without children. Nielsen's senior vice president of insights, Dounia Turrill, says part of the new monitoring regime is meant to help determine whether they'll change their behavior over time. "As these homes change life stage, what will happen to them?"

Cynthia Phelps, a 43-year-old maker of mental health apps in San Antonio, Texas, says there's nothing that will bring her back to traditional TV. She's watched TV in the past, of course, but for most of the last 10 years she's done without it.

She finds a lot of programs online to watch on her laptop for free — like the TED talks educational series — and every few months she gets together with friends to watch older TV shows on DVD, usually "something totally geeky," like NBC's "Chuck."

The 24-hour news channels make her anxious or depressed, and buzz about the latest hot TV shows like "Mad Men" doesn't make her feel like she's missing out. She didn't know who the Kardashian family was until she looked them up a few years ago.

"I feel absolutely no social pressure to keep up with the Joneses in that respect," she says.

For Phelps, it's less about saving money than choice. She says she'd rather spend her time productively and not get "sucked into" shows she'll regret later.

"I don't want someone else dictating the media I get every day," she says. "I want to be in charge of it. When I have a TV, I'm less in control of that."


The TV industry has a host of buzz words to describe these non-traditionalist viewers. There are "cord-cutters," who stop paying for TV completely, and make do with online video and sometimes an antenna. There are "cord-shavers," who reduce the number of channels they subscribe to, or the number of rooms pay TV is in, to save money.

Then there are the "cord-nevers," young people who move out on their own and never set up a landline phone connection or a TV subscription. They usually make do with a broadband Internet connection, a computer, a cellphone and possibly a TV set that is not hooked up the traditional way.

That's the label given to the group by Richard Schneider, the president and founder of the online retailer Antennas Direct. The site is doing great business selling antennas capable of accepting free digital signals since the nation's transition to digital over-the-air broadcasts in 2009, and is on pace to sell nearly 600,000 units this year, up from a few dozen when it started in 2003.

While the "cord-nevers" are a target market for him, the category is also troubling. More people are raised with the power of the Internet in their pocket, and don't know or care that you can pull TV signals from the air for free.


"They're more aware of Netflix than they're aware over-the-air is even available," Schneider says.

That brings us to truck driver James Weitze. The 31-year-old satisfies his video fix with an iPhone. He often sleeps in his truck, and has no apartment. To be sure, he's an extreme case who doesn't fit into Nielsen's definition of a household in the first place. But he's watching Netflix enough to keep up with shows like "Weeds," ''30 Rock," ''Arrested Development," ''Breaking Bad," ''It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" and "Sons of Anarchy."

He's not opposed to TV per se, and misses some ESPN sports programs like the "X Games."

But he's so divorced from the traditional TV ecosystem it could be hard to go back. It's become easier for him to navigate his smartphone than to figure out how to use a TV set-top box and the button-laden remote control.

"I'm pretty tech savvy, but the TV industry with the cable and the television and the boxes, you don't know how to use their equipment," he says. "I try to go over to my grandma's place and teach her how to do it. I can't even figure it out myself."

Stop Crying Racism At Hollywood Says Antoine Fuqua; 'Put In The Work'

0

“I wouldn’t use the term racist, as much as I would say the playing field is not even in Hollywood. But ultimately, you have to put in the work [...] It’s very easy to cry racism when you’re not qualified to do the work or your work isn’t transcending to where you want it to be. Hollywood is a business and you have to look at it that way [...] I do see other things – like people who don’t understand or are ignorant to our culture. But I wouldn’t call them racist. If anything, it’s our job to expand their minds to our experience [...] There are no African Americans that run major studios and most of the executives at the top level are not African American. So when the people in those jobs are developing stories, nine times out of 10, their stories won’t be about African Americans – they’ll be about people who look like themselves. To say that those people are racist is not necessarily the case [...] 99.9 per cent of the people that have given me my opportunities in this business were not African American [...] Denzel [Washington] gave me a great opportunity when we did Training Day together, and I also became friends with Mr Sidney Poitier, who has given me great counsel and advice. But in terms of people in the studio system, most of the people who have given me my jobs were not African American. So I can’t sit back and say Hollywood is racist.”


Words from director Antoine Fuqua while doing press in the UK where his latest effort, Olympus Has Fallen, which is set to be released in theaters there this week. Apparently he was asked whether he felt the American studio system was a racist one, likely in regards to the dearth of black talents in front of and behind the camera.

The above is from a teaser interview with The Voice (UK), who promise that the full exclusive interview with Fuqua will be posted on April 11.

Will Smith tried this nonsense already. I love the fact that it's consistently actors and filmmakers whose films I am rarely interested in because they create or act in mediocre or stereotypical films that Hollywood people only like seeing black people in.
