Now, if you're not into animated films, then your choice this weekend could be the horror movie Drag Me to Hell. Christine Brown (Alison Lohman) is a loan officer with a good job and a promising future. With a promotion up in the air between her and another employee, her boss, Mr. Jacks (David Paymer), advises her that she needs to demonstrate that she can make "the hard calls" and tough decisions. When Mrs. Ganush (Lorna Raver), an elderly Gypsy woman, asks for a third extension on her mortgage, Christine, against her better instincts, denies her in an attempt to prove herself. In desperation, Ganush prostrates herself before Christine, begging and kissing the hem of her skirt. As a crowd of customers and employees gathers, Christine panics and shoves the woman away, gravely insulting her.

That night, in a parking garage, Ganush, enraged and humiliated, exacts revenge by attacking Christine, pulling her out of her car and tearing off one of the buttons on the sleeve of her jacket before using it to place a curse upon her. Shaken by this confrontation, but sure that no further harm will come of it, Christine tries to forget what has happened and move on with her life. But when she arrives home, a mysterious entity that only she can see begins to haunt and torment at all hours. She confides in her boyfriend, Clay Dalton (Justin Long); however, he is too skeptical to believe her stories about terrifying demons.

Lady Gaga- "Paparazzi" [Music Video]


Lady Gaga has released the music video for one of her latest singles "Paparazzi" to be released after "LoveGame" off her album The Fame. The video, which runs for over seven minutes is easily one of the best music videos I've seen in the last couple of years. Everything this woman does is to an extreme and it works more than well for her. This music video is simply great (and that's an understatement). It's just something you definitely wouldn't want to miss. GaGa is surely changing Pop music and as it has been said, it will never be the same again. Enjoy!

Pussycat Dolls- "Hush Hush;Hush Hush" [Video]

The Pussycat Dolls have released their latest music video for the single "Hush Hush;Hush Hush". Lots of dancing going on in the video, good song... but overall, I feel like the Dolls have dissapointed many of their fans with their last album. Let's see where these ladies will take the group next, with out without Nicole Scherzinger.

Mandy Moore appeared live at The Ellen DeGeneres Show to perform her latest single "I Could Break Your Heart Any Day of the Week" off her album Amanda Leigh in stores today. I like this song, hopefully it does good on the charts.

Jon & Kate Plus 8 Break Ratings Record

The season 5 premiere of Jon & Kate Plus 8 shattered all rating records for TLC. The hour-long episode -- in which tabloid cover queen Kate Gosselin admitted, "I have a lot of anger...this is not what I envisioned for us" -- attracted a whopping 9.8 million viewers, which more than doubled the audience that tuned into the show's season 4 finale in March (4.6 million). Early estimates also reveal that the premiere, which lured unprecedented numbers of women aged 18-34 and women 18-49, was TLC's (and Jon & Kate's) most-watched episode ever. It also trounced the broadcast networks, which aired mostly repeats because of the holiday (an original episode of The Bachelorette on ABC lured 6 million).

Monday's episode focused on the sextuplets' fifth birthday party, but a good deal of it was devoted to tense, one-on-one discussions between an off-camera producer and either Jon or Kate. Without specifically addressing how her husband has been accused of having an affair, the 34-year-old mother of eight spoke candidly about how Jon has "made poor decisions and we have to live with it" and how he "doesn't remind me of the Jon I used to know." For his part, Jon, 32, reiterated that he didn't cheat on his wife and how "people are getting paid off to say whatever they want to say" in the tabloids -- a direct reference to the barrage of press coverage about his late-night liaison with Deanna Hummel, 23. Jon also rued the day when his kids would Google him: "Hopefully, they'll be mature enough to understand it's all crap."

Both parents talked about how they were committed to their children, but they wouldn't address whether a split -- either temporary or permanent -- was in the cards. "I wish I knew," said Kate, when asked what the future holds for them, although she did admit that a group picture taken at the sextuplets' birthday party "could be our last."

"We very swiftly turned into two different people," Kate told the camera. "It's difficult."

Our Lady Peace- "All You Did Was Save My Life"


Our Lady Peace have one of my all-time favorite songs "Somewhere Out There" and now they're back with a new single called "All You Did Was Save My Life", another great song which is the first single released from their upcoming album Burn Burn to hit stores July 21st. Great video too for this song. Enjoy!

Out on the Big Screen Now!



Terminator Salvation is a 2009 American science fiction post-apocalyptic war film released on May 21, 2009 in the United States, June 3, 2009 in the UK, and June 4, 2009 in Australia. Directed by McG, it is the fourth film in the Terminator series and stars Christian Bale as John Connor, before becoming leader of the Resistance, and Sam Worthington as Marcus Wright, a cyborg who believes he is human. It also introduces a young version of the first film's hero, Kyle Reese, played by Anton Yelchin, and depicts the origins of the T-800 Model 101 Terminator, played by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Roland Kickinger. Being both a sequel and a prequel to the previous films, Salvation, set in 2018, focuses on the war between humanity and Skynet. It abandons the time travel element of previous entries in the series, which centered on Terminators and other characters traveling through time to either kill or protect John Connor before the events of Judgment Day unfold.

Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (named Night at the Museum 2 in the UK) is a 2009 American adventure comedy film and the sequel to the American adventure comedy film Night at the Museum. The film stars Ben Stiller, Robin Williams, Amy Adams and Owen Wilson.

The Winner of American Idol 2009

KRIS ALLEN
Congrats!
-
Who knew? At the beginning of the competition I would have never expected him to win this season, out of all the people there and now the "black horse" is the new American Idol. He deserves it, congrats to Kris.
-
Here's a detailed recap about the finale tonight: it was an O.K. finale, the highlight for me was David Cook's performance of "Permanent" which was probably one of the best overall performances of the past two nights, ha, go figure. It was incredible, he got a standing ovation - enough said. Lil Rounds performed a duet with Queen Latifah, I thought it was damn awful. Jason Mraz came out to sing "I'm Yours", my favorite song of the past year... but I'm a little confused as to why they picked Alexis Grace and Anoop Desai to sing with him instead of Matt Giraud and Megan Joy who fit that genre of music more. Anyway, that performance was good, proved to me that Alexis Grace went home way too soon. Tonight's winner Kris Allen performed a duet with country singer Keith Urban on the song "Kiss a Girl" interesting duet but a great one nonetheless. Later on, Fergie performed "Big Girls Don't Cry" with the five final girls this season. All I have to say is that Megan looked hot and Fergie needs to go back to blonde soon! Following this performance, the Black Eyed Peas came together to perform "Boom Boom Pow". The boring "Idol Awards" continue and 'bikini girl' comes back to kiss Ryan Seacrest again and sing "Vision of Love" for the last time sporting a horrible tan and a noticeable new boob job. That part, I enjoyed very much lol. The shocker came when judge Kara DioGuardi (who called 'bikini girl' a bitch during her audition) popped out of the stairs and took over the song and all I have to say is that she did a terrific job. That woman can sing! Back to this season's finalists, Allison Iraheta performed "Time After Time" with Cindy Lauper then third place finalist Danny Gokey performed a great duet with Lionel Richie. Runner-up Adam Lambert took the stage with KISS for one hell of a collaboration, easily my favorite Adam performance during the whole competition. The final group performance had the Top 13 sing the hit single "Smooth" with the talented Carlos Santana on the electric guitar, Megan Joy and Michael Sarver performed a song called "Pretty Flowers" which was heavy on the banjo with comedian Steve Martin, quite an interesting performance. Finally, both Adam and Kris performed Queen's "We Are the Champions" and shortly after the time to reveal the winner came. All that said, the winner of American Idol 2009 is announced to be Kris Allen. The new Idol then performed the coronation song "No Boundaries".

Worst single choice of the year right here. Britney Spears has released the single cover for "Radar" fourth song released from her album Circus in stores now. Extremely dissapointed at this single choice.

Beyoncé- "Ego" Single + New DVD Cover

I though it couldn't get worst than "Diva". Beyoncé will release the fifth single from her I Am... Sasha Fierece album which is the song called "Ego" featuring Kanye West. The music video is set to premiere this week but I have to say this song is terrible, imo. But then again, most of the upbeat songs on this album are bad. Check out the official single cover above. Now, below is the cover for her upcoming DVD to hit stores June 16th called Above and Beyoncé Video Collection and Dance Mixes.
