Eclectic actress and gossip-column favorite dethrones media maven Oprah Winfrey atop this year’s Celebrity 100. Jolie has always been able to attract tabloid attention and Oscar nods, but this year, she’s finally figured out a way to make serious money. Her most recent blockbuster, Wanted, proved this mother of six’s sweet spot is action films; the movie earned $340 million at the box office. Up next: Salt, in which Jolie plays a CIA officer accused of being a spy.

IS CONAN O’BRIEN A TWIT FOR TWITTER STANCE?
Posted by: | Comments
We don’t know how we missed this before, but sometime in the last few months, Conan O’Brien took over for Jay Leno as host of the Tonight Show! We know, we know, can you believe it? All kidding aside, night two of Conan’s brand-new gig was a better indication of how his show will go than night one, which mainly consisted of video bits highlighting Conan’s attempt to transform himself into an Angeleno. There were some of those last night, too — specifically, there was a mildly humorous pretaped segment where Conan got confused between the posh Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and the rugged Rodeo Road in Compton — but in general, the show stuck a little closer to the kinds of topical humor that have been a staple of late-night comedy ever since the genre was invented. However, there was one topic that has bubbled up in popularity in the time since Conan went off the air in February that he finally got the chance to address: Twitter!
Judging by the way this bit was slanted, it’s readily apparent that Conan sees Twitter as nothing more than a way for celebrities like Miley Cyrus and Dennis Haysbert to indulge in ego-tripping. From the way the whole bit was positioned (which, btw, would’ve been greatly improved had Conan used real tweets instead of fake ones as a base), Conan kind of comes off like he’s dismissive of not only the banal ways in which a lot of celebrities tend to tweet, but also of the service in general. This, of course, stands in stark contrast to the way Jimmy Fallon has worked to position himself as someone who embraces Internet culture, new media, geeky gadgets, and the like.
Joe Jonas Single Ladies (Video)
Posted by: | CommentsAs a part of their album release countdown, the Jonas Brothers released this fabulously lame video of Joe Jonas shaking his ham hocks to Beyonce’s Single Ladies.
Justin and Adam Samberg’s version was classic. Sorry Jonas fans…this was one was not funny, by any means. It would have helped if Mr. Joe had have known at least SOME of the words.

The highly acclaimed Emmy-nominated reality TV show SYTYCD is a summer favorite for viewers. The show is created by Simon Fuller and Nigel Lythgoe who brought you American Idol and many other favorites!
Here’s what Cat Deeley has to say about this exciting show.
“We like to celebrate people from all different races, religions, backgrounds, colors, creeds. That’s the whole idea of the show, is that anybody from any background at all with any training can come on the show, and as long as they’ve got the talent and passion and they’re prepared to work hard, and also show their personality, of course, they are more than welcome to be on the show. We’re looking for stars,”
Don’t forget to check back for live blogging and SYTYCD live streaming video of all your dancing favorites.
How does it work? Producers will roam the country searching for dancers who will audition and display their skills and dazzle. Those whom judges find worthy talent will be invited to a call-back and have the golden opportunity of honing their craft as they work with top choreographers. During the call-back week, the judges will pick the SYTYCD Top 20 dancers who will continue in the competition as SYTYCD finalists.
Now it’s the viewers’ turn as the 20 finalists dance for votes. As dancers are eliminated, through a combination of judges scores and viewers’ votes we will eventually reach the Top 10 finalists. For those finalists, their fate is in the hands of the viewers entirely. After every performance show viewers will vote for their favorite dancers and a live show will reveal who stays and who goes.
Here are several interviews with host Cat Deeley and judges Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy.
The SYTYCD season 4 winner? Joshua Allen. After the season finale all of the Top 10 dancers went on the SYTCD tour which brought them to cities across America.
What can a winner expect? No guarantees, but plenty of opportunity, as host Cat Deeley explains.
“And if it’s not on another TV show, it could be that somebody like Mariah Carey rings up, or Avril Lavigne, and goes, ‘OK, we’d like you to come on tour.’ If we can elevate them to that position, they can go on to have a wonderful career after this.”
The journey So You Think You Can Dance season 5 auditions have concluded and week by week we will see more dancers being eliminated. Don’t miss the excitement!

Miley Cyrus Tour 2009
Posted by: | CommentsAfter a highly successful “Hannah Montana” film and soundtrack, Miley Cyrus is set to hit the road on a 45-city North American tour starting this fall. The Miley Cyrus money making machine will continue to roll in the dough!
In an effort to throw ticket scalpers for a loop, Ticketmaster is requiring paperless ticketing for the sale of the Miley Cyrus tour dates.
According to Billboard.com,
Ticketmaster is using the Cyrus tour to rollout its biggest experiment in paperless ticketing yet in an effort to limit ticket scalping. According to a press release, “All tickets will be sold exclusively through paperless ticket delivery which means fans will not receive a physical concert ticket for their entry into the event.”
So instead of the actual ticket in hand, concert goers will need to not only bring a credit card that they used to make the purchase, but they will also be required to show photo identification to the venue in order to get past the gates. All attendees as part of a group will be forced to enter the concerts together and ushers will hand out “seat locator slips.”
Information about the paperless ticketing for the tour is available at ticketmaster.com/mileycyrus.
Cyrus’ tour will be sponsored by Walmart, quite fitting considering designer Max Azira and Cyrus will be launching a new apparel line in August that will be distributed and sold in Walmarts nationwide.
See, Billy Ray knows how it’s done. Keep that cash cow producing!
