Kanye West Cancels Today Show Concert
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Concerts / Tours, Gossip, Performances, Videos,
Although he's made some peace with former President George W. Bush, Kanye West now has a new target for his frustration: the Today show.
During a pre-taped interview that aired Thursday, Kanye became bothered by some video that was rolling during his chat. As Matt Lauer and West were comparing the backlash he received after the MTV Awards to the flak Bush received post-Hurricane Katrina, NBC chose to show the clip of that famous Kanye/Taylor Swift moment.
That decision caught Kanye by surprise -- and he made sure everyone knew he didn't like it. (Cue the video to the 6:30 mark.)

George Bush Still Hurt by Kanye Comments, West Expresses Sympathy
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Videos,
Although it would be difficult for anyone to forget Hurricane Katrina, former President George W. Bush says there is one particular moment surrounding that 2005 event that still stings to this day.
In an interview to air next week on NBC, Bush calls the time Kanye West suggested he was a racist (see the video above) one of the lowest points of his presidency.
"It's one thing to say, 'I don't appreciate the way he's handled his business.' It's another thing to say, 'This man's a racist.' I resent it, it's not true, and it was one of the most disgusting moments in my presidency," he recalls to Matt Lauer.
Having endured his own public scandal since that time, a mellower Kanye expressed sympathy today in an interview with a Houston radio station. (You can listen to that chat after the jump.)

Courteney Cox Speaks
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Television, Divorce,
“This is not like we’re getting divorced,” actress Courteney Cox explained in a recent interview. “This is a separation.” The interview with TV Week is the first time Cox has spoken publicly about her martial troubles with husband David Arquette, who came forward to speak to the press almost immediately after the news first broke.
“I don’t know what will happen,” Cox said. “What is supposed to happen will be the best thing for us.”
In the interview, Cox says that she and husband David grew apart some time in the course of their 11-year marriage.
She also gracefully responded to her husband’s interview with Howard Stern, which many people felt sounded insensitive. “It’s not shocking and Howard Stern, he loves him, and I’m a fan of Howard Stern,” she said. “David is an entertainer and I’m sure the people who listen to the radio are entertained by his stories.”
While David Arquette has faced the separation in a more public fashion, Cox has been getting support from a former Friends costar, telling Australia’s TV Week, “Jennifer [Aniston] has been amazing for sure.”

VIDEO: President Obama on The Daily Show
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Comedy, Late Night, Talk Shows, Cable, Daily Show, The, News, Video,
The President of the United States of America appeared on Comedy Central’s Daily Show Wednesday night … but if you thought Barack Obama was going to spend his time trading quips with host Jon Stewart, you were wrong.
Stewart, as usual, set the tone for the interview immediately: serious but fun. He solemnly addressed the President and shook his hand before presenting him with Mug Force One -- a classic Daily Show cup, embellished in celebration of the occasion.
The two got down to hard-hitting issues right away. Stewart opened up the floor to talk about health care, Congress -- Obama’s entire administration.

Mel Gibson Ready to Make Public Apology … Again?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Meltdowns, Rumors,
Rumor has it that Mel Gibson is seriously considering breaking his silence and coming forward. The main topics of discussion? Gibson will probably address his well-publicized domestic problems, being fired from The Hangover 2 ... and, if he’s smart, he’ll probably liberally pepper his speech with “I’m sorry.”
The actor has his pick of venues, but sources say he’s leaning toward The Today Show’s Matt Lauer. Mel Gibson had a disastrous interview with Diane Sawyer after his infamous anti-Semitic comments, and those in the know say he doesn’t want another bad interview on record.

President Barack Obama to Appear on The Daily Show

The Daily Show has officially announced that President Barack Obama will become the first sitting president to appear on the series. The leader of the free world is scheduled to visit the late night talk show Wednesday, October 27.
Obama himself is a friend of the show -- he appeared via video conferencing only days before the 2008 presidential election (view that moment in the clip above).
The president's appearance is surely no coincidence. Comedy Central isn’t exactly a big news media outlet, but in its way the cable network is an active contributor to pop culture and the way people view the political landscape. Strongly left-oriented, Comedy Central’s audience is in Obama’s target Democratic and left-leaning undecided demographic … and the midterm elections are now less than a dozen days away.
Will you be tuning it to hear the President’s message?
Oksana Grigorieva Turned Down Mel Gibson’s $15 Million
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Break-ups, Celebrity Babies, Meltdowns,
Oksana Grigorieva turned down a $15 million settlement offer from ex-lover Mel Gibson because he wanted shared custody of their daughter.
The Russian singer - who is currently involved in a bitter custody battle with Mel for their 11-month-old daughter Lucia - refused the huge financial offer because she didn’t want the “unstable” actor getting so much access to their child.
“The $15 million was a proposal that I walked away from because he wanted 50 per cent custody of an infant when he’s unstable.”
Oksana also claims Mel punched her in the head while she was holding Lucia, during an argument on January 6. “Mel ran in and started screaming all kinds of nasty words. Then he just hit me twice with his fist. Boom, boom, to my head and my mouth. I fell on top of the bed. I’m just covering the baby and not protecting myself. He proceeds to choke me with both his hands,” she said in an interview with People magazine.
The 40-year-old beauty alleges the 54-year-old actor used a mixture of threats and pleading to convince her not to leave him after the incident:
