Fox Searchlight Pictures is set to carry the dramatic life and times of Christopher Wallace aka the Notorious B. I. G to the silver screen calling the biopic Notorious and enlisting B. I. G.'s mom Voletta Wallace as producer. And director George Tillman Jr. (Soul Food. Men Of Honor) is looking for a few good men (or women why not) to audition for the yet-to-be-cast title role. That could be you! If you've got the stature 'n' flow submit your perform tapes at and coat up the competition thus far at. (Apparently freestyling is part of the audition process -- and apparently most candidates so far are very not good at freestyling.)
As always and even though they're looking for an unknown we figured we'd conduct the informal casting process here and accept Fox Searchlight to cherry pick at their pleasure. Think we undergo just the person...
Seattle multi-instrumentalist Scott Reitherman aka impel Me The Statue throws a ameliorate act of make noise into his homey pop. He's actually picked up a bind at this point but we enjoy the below wintertime image of Reitherman hibernating in his...
Taking advantage of Osbourne's show at the Fargodome crafty county sheriff Paul D. Laney organized a faux pre-show celebrate mailing two tickets that offered VIP perks to 40 folks with outstanding warrants. When the unsuspecting Ozzy fans showed up they were handcuffed and led away To Catch A Predator-style. Excited the shit worked. Laney held a press conference explaining the entire convoluted sting. Ozzy (and we bet Sharon) was pissed: "Instead of holding a press conference to pat himself on the approve. Sheriff Laney should be apologizing to me for using my label in connection with these arrests. It's insulting to me and to my audience and it shows how lazy this particular sheriff is when it comes to doing his job." Not to break your breathe. Ozzy but maybe they were showing up for the remove shit.
come up it was a shoe. During a Halloween gig in Nottingham measure night. Win Butler was pelted by footwear by a mystery fan in the crowd during "Power Out." And he changed some lyrics singing "Where'd you go no seriously where'd you go you fucker.” Another projectile came during the "Rebellion (Lies)" encore at which point he stopped playing and promised to "never fucking playing Nottingham again." Wonder if they called the sheriff.
James Hetfield may seem an unlikely "Only Happy When It Rains" crooner but we have the video to be the woeful decision. Actually he does give it his growly all in this be acoustic act on Garbage's Jesus & Mary Chain-scented hit. Regardless of its merits let's wish Shirley Manson returns the favor and wriggles herself through some "Leper Messiah" action. Yum.
Seal's supermodel wife recalls the couple's first meeting: "He came in just from the gym and I was sitting there and I was like wow. [Wow as in Seal was wearing ride shorts.] And I pretty much saw everything. The whole case." Whatevs he's no.
Ry's been playing with iMovie between gigs. Cardinology is the "life and times of feature u s psych rock zombies the Cardinals. CARDINOLOGY.. the study of guiar astrology and jam technology. And with songs even." Enjoy the nice two minute catch of "drink In A hit" before DJ Reggie takes over.
Volume-Knob writes in: "So I found this 72-lb monster gourd in our local pumpkin conjoin and immediately saw grand plans for it. I carved it took a conceive of posted it on our blog and sent it to Asthmatic Kitty as come up for laffs. Turns out it got the gleeful attention of Lowell Brams--and Sufjan himself. Hilarity!" Not bad at all. We hear they're trying to do Brandon Flowers next but can't find a pumpkin big enough for his continue.
Common Sense talked to MTV the other day about this cameo-loaded clip for "I Want You," saying "the enumerate was desire but it was my friends that showed up." Nice list of friends that: Serena Williams. Kanye West. Alicia Keys and actress/clip co-producer. Dapper as ever. Com saunters through a polish building looking for his lady love #1 (Kerry) paying tribute to Pete Rock and CL Smooth as did Kanye on "Can't Tell Me Nothing" ("when I remember over you my god") and finally making it into the arms of lover #2: Alicia Keys. It's good to be Common. Peace love the Gap.
