When The Kooks are in the studio they’re focused and most importantly, sober. Watch Hugh and Luke explain their reasoning below.
The Kooks released a new album called “Junk of the Heart,” and you would think Hugh and Luke would be very excited about it. Well, they seemed rather indifferent to be honest. We spoke about that and why they don’t care about critics.

Daniel Radcliffe is back with his new movie The Woman In Black. It’s a bone chilling remake of a film from the ’80s. Ironically, Daniel actually scares very easily but he’s not afraid of ghosts. In this interview he tells us what really gives him the creeps.
Next time you’re struggling to make conversation, try asking this question: “If you could invite anyone (living or dead) to the perfect house party, who would it be?”
Graffiti6 is starting to make their North American invasion, and they are hitting up the Tonight Show. Does this sound familiar? Well the Beatles made the exact same journey over 40 years ago. Naturally, @jordans_life had to make some comparisons.
Nick plays World of Warcraft. Not only that, he’s the head of his guild, demonstrating that it IS possible to juggle being a hardcore gamer with being a top-selling recording artist.
During a LIVE interview on andPOP.com Nick Carter gave out a number and took phone calls from his fans. These were real phone calls from real fans who we gave exclusive access to one of the biggest recording artists of our generation.
There were great questions about music, fitness, the backstreet boys but the most popular question, however, was about his underwear. In this clip Nick talks about his his ‘Haynes’ and covering his fans with glow in the dark paint.
When releasing new music today, half the battle is online promotion. However, contests, signed merch and giveaways aren’t always the best solutions. When working on their latest album, Hedley came up with a brilliant idea, they decided to make trailers.
It’s hard to prepare for an interview with Hedley. So in this interview, we threw caution to the wind, got a 24 of beer and broadcast the interview live on our USTREAM (andPOP.tv). Eventually Jacob, Dave and @jordans_life ended up talking about hairy legs, their newest music video and more.
Diamandis from Marina and The Diamonds talks to us about her very serious disease. It’s called synaesthetic. And we lied, it’s not a disease. More like a cool condition. Diamandis explains further.
Would you be embarrassed if someone scrolled through your iPod? We sit down with Spee and Brendan to talk about the diverse music on their playlist.
Cleavage, Breasts, Boobs, Melons, Chest Pillows. All buzzwords that are sure to get the attention of your fathers, brothers and male co-workers alike.
Regardless of how gross it sounds, your Dad loves breasts. I should explain, it’s not because he’s a pervert but rather that he is a man. The entire male species is infatuated with this particular part of the female form, however, we don’t really know why? It’s just a known fact that most men are somehow genetically programmed to love boobs.
Like any unexplained marvel of science, to get an answer to this question our friends at Rookiemag called in an expert. This video shows hollywood actor and female fan-favourite Paul Rudd trying to explain the phenomenon. This question, however, was even too much for the actor who was in both The 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up.
Watch the video below and you can catch Paul with Jennifer Anniston in the upcoming film Wanderlust.
Although December hasn’t arrived, the search engine Bing (for those of you who don’t use Google) has unveiled it’s most searched celebrities of the year.
2011 was definitely the year of Bieber Fever as Justin comes in as the most searched person. Bing reports Kim Kardashian, who came in first last year, has now fallen in the number two spot. Jennifer Anniston is the third most searched celebrity this year.
Here is the full list from Bing:
1. Justin Bieber
2. Kim Kardashian
3. Jennifer Aniston
4. Lindsay Lohan
5. Jennifer Lopez
6. Britney Spears
7. Katy Perry
8. Megan Fox
9. Lady Gaga
10. Miley Cyrus
Having Lady Gaga on the bottom of the list is a little bit absurd. She’s had a stellar year of performances, controversies and awards. I expected her to reign at least higher than Megan Fox of all people.
It’s a bit surprising to see Jennifer Anniston beat out so many troubled headline-makers like Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears. But, I assume people were constantly curious of who Ms. Ex-Brad Pitt was dating next.
Justin Bieber appears the only male celeb on the list, while his girlfriend Selena Gomez is no where near.
Now that Jennifer Aniston has a new boyfriend, John Mayer has some regrets about letting her get away. Us Weekly is printing a story about it.
“A source says the singer, who put the final kibosh on his one-year romance with Aniston in March 2009, still pines for her. “She was the one who got away,” says the friend. “He’s definitely not thrilled to see Jen in so many photos with a new guy – especially one who is a cooler version of him.” Now spending his time gorging on pizza bites, Hot Pickets and Smucker’s Uncrustables while writing new tunes in his home in L.A.’s Pacific Palisades, Mayer, 33, is ahem, heavy with regrets. “He’s just eating microwave food and getting chunky,” the pal adds of Mayer, who had notoriously held an impromptu street press conference to discuss an initial split with Aniston in 2008. “Seeing Jen happy now isn’t easy. He cared about her more than any of his other girlfriends.”
The good news is this news could be the best thing for his career. Hopefully he will be able to transfer that emotion into song writing.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are reconsidering getting married, despite earlier vows to never tie the knot.
The famous couple claims that they are feeling the pressure from their children to become husband and wife, despite previously insisting they would only exchange vows when same-sex marriage is legalized.
In a 2006 interview with Esquire magazine, Pitt famously declared: “Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able.”
But Pitt now admits they are warming up to the idea of marriage, thanks to much convincing from their six children.
He tells USA Weekend magazine, “The kids ask about marriage. It’s meaning more and more to them. So it’s something we’ve got to look at.”
Both stars have been married before; Pitt divorced Jennifer Aniston in 2005 after falling for Jolie while co-starring in action comedy Mr. and Mrs. Smith, while Jolie was previously wed to Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton.
I hope they do get married. It’s a nice gesture that they are doing by not getting married, as they are standing for equality, but they are my favourite Hollywood couple and I would love to read all the details of their big day. Either way, though, they shouldn’t be forced to get married. They should do what’s right for them as a couple.
In a recent interview with U.K.’s Red Magazine, Jennifer Aniston chose herself when posed with the, “Who’s your BFF?” question.
“So many, I couldn’t do that,” she said. “I’ll say me!”
If that wasn’t enough ammo for bloggers everywhere waiting to pick on the actress, Aniston also told the magazine, “I’m not a big fan of dating.”
Oh, Jen. Why do you make it so easy to make fun of you? I’m certain the 42-year-old is positively tired of having media portray her as some sad, lonely, woman so here’s an idea: stop talking your love life!
According to USmagazine, her films have grossed more than $1.7 billion dollars worldwide, so why not focus on that? The star also went on to say she would choose love over a phenomenal career, but ultimately she’s looking for a man “balance.”
“You also have to have your own personal love,” said the actress. “What inspires you, what excites you when you wake up in the morning?”
This all reads very contradictory – she’s not interested in dating, but she would choose love over a career, but she also just wants a balance?
Jen has said time and time again that she’s tired of being portrayed as a sad, victim of the Brangelina situation, but continues to talk about it when approached by the press. I don’t think her attempt at trying to play her single status cool is working on anyone though — Jen wants love, plain and simple.
She did, however, have something very true to say about friends.
“Where would you be without friends?” she asked. “The people to pick you up when you need lifting? We come from homes far from perfect, so you end up almost parent and sibling to your friends — your own chosen family. There’s nothing like a really loyal, dependable, good friend. Nothing.”
Well, if I can’t get on board with the rest of it, I do think Aniston would probably be nowhere without Friends.
We are huge fans of Zach Galifianakis. He recently filmed a new episode of ‘Between Two Ferns’ on Funny Or Die, with Tila Tequila and Jennifer Aniston as his guests.
More or less Galifianakis ignores Aniston and calls her “Jennifer Anderson.” Awesome!
Here’s something we don’t think anybody knew – until last night at least. Jennifer Aniston was a guest on “The Daily Show” yesterday where she revealed her and Jon Stewart once dated!
The couple apparently had one date at a New York City Italian restaurant, but the love affair quickly ended after that. Ah well – everything happens for a reason.
If your luck with men isn’t that great, why not try your luck with perfume? The lovely and talented Jennifer Aniston is.
E! Online reports that the former Friends star collaborated with Falic Fashion Group to create a new fragrance. It’s called “Lolavie”, and launches in June, but only in the U.K. Sometime after that, expect to get your own first whiff.
The 41-year-old actress promises that it’s not too heavy as she told Women’s Wear Daily:
“I am not a big perfume-y fragrance fan,” describing the scent as “sexy and clean” and “floral, but not too flowery.” “I want people to go, ‘What is that? You smell great!’ But most of all, I wanted it to smell natural.”
Aniston confessed she “felt like a little chemist” while concocting the scent and dished about the inspiration – but didn’t give away too much. She said that the bottle was inspired for her love of waves and modern architecture, but kept tight-lipped about the name of the scent.
“It’s a long story and honestly it’s too personal to tell,” she says. “But it has special significance.” Aka: Screw you John Mayer and Angelina Jolie.
She isn’t stopping there either, the star talked about expanding the line include other scents, cosmetics or skin-care products. .
“Anything’s possible,” she says.
There’s a reason why action movies are rarely paired up with romantic comedies. Could you imagine Jason Statham and Meg Ryan sharing the same silver screen? Probably not.
“The Bounty Hunter” tells the story of Milo Boyd (Gerard Butler), a down-on-his-luck bounty hunter who lands an ideal job that allows him to chase his bail-jumping ex-wife, Nicole (Jennifer Aniston). What Milo originally deems an easy way to make $5000 bucks ends up turning into one of his toughest hunts when Nicole, a daily news reporter, has something of her own to chase: a lead on a murder cover-up.
For those expecting a romantic comedy a la “The Ugly Truth,” you’re out of luck. While both films feature Bulter in all his rugged, spit-on-the-street glory, “The Bounty Hunter” fails to charm. It’s not exactly a romantic comedy (or a great action film for that matter).
Does Jennifer Aniston really plan on dieing alone?
According to Perez Hilton, Aniston’s Beverly Hills mansion is going under renovations to transform it from a potential family home into a full-fledged bachelorette pad.
The star’s home “originally had his-and-hers baths, but Aniston has turned the ‘his’ into a spa bath with a soaking tub” reports Architectural Digest.
Could it really be over? It looks like it. The Sunday Times of London is reporting that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have filed the papers to separate.
The paper further reports that the couple will share custody of their six children, however the children will live with Jolie. The National Enquirer also reported that on January 6 the couple had a major blowout in a New York restaurant which was the final straw of the relationship.
Perez Hilton reports Jennifer Aniston will be singing in the upcoming film The Goree Girls, which she will star in and produce. Michael Sucsy will direct the movie, based on the John Lee Hancock novel set in the 1940s about eight female prison inmates in a country band in Texas.
“She can sing. And she’s going to learn how to play the Dobro guitar,” said Sucsy. “These women learned to harmonize and they learned to play instruments. They weren’t these amazing, accomplished singers who banded together. That’s what’s interesting about it. It’s not just like, ‘Hey, you can play the guitar, I can play the piano, I can play the harmonica. Let’s put a band together.’ It’s like, ‘We have to get out of jail, and if we have to put a band together to do that, then that’s what we’re going to do.’”
Courtney Cox says her best friend and former Friends co-star may show up on her upcoming show, Cougar Town, reports Perez Hilton.
“You know, she’s a good friend and I know she loves the show,” said Cox at a press conference. “I’m not going to say she is going to do it because I don’t know. But if Bill Lawrence writes her a character, I’m sure she’ll be glad to do it.”
Cougar Town premieres this fall on ABC and follows Cox’s character, a recent divorcee and mom to a teenage son, as she re-enters the world of dating.
According to Perez Hilton, Jennifer Aniston is in the early stages of developing her own restaurant. Sources say the former Friends star is very passionate about the new venture.
“Jennifer is very passionate about cooking,” said an insider. “She recently had a new kitchen fitted and she loves it. She can cook anything from Mexican meals, to Italian food, to cakes. She does use cookbooks, but mainly they are her own recipes. Everyone says she should open her own restaurant and she said she would love to.”
There’s no word yet on what kind of food the restaurant will serve or when it will open.
The actress, who used to be married to Brad Pitt, is currently filming her next movie, Bounty Hunter, in Atlantic City, New Jersey, with Gerard Butler.
It was only a matter of time before Jennifer Aniston’s love life became the centre of speculation once again.
The unlucky-in-love former Friends star is said to now be romancing fellow actor Gerard Butler. Butler, commonly known for his portrayal of the deceased-Irish character in Ps, I Love You, is not known for a clean slate in dating, and according to perezhilton.com, can be considered a “player”.
The pair first sparked romance rumors last September, at the Toronto International Film Festival.
When it comes to Hollywood, as the old and overused saying goes, there’s no such thing as bad press.
But we know that’s just bull. Such a line is used for people who, let’s face it, crave bad publicity because they realize others have finally caught onto their uselessness and lack of talent.
Lindsay Lohan, I’m looking at you.
Yet somehow, the month of March barely gave us any of these headliners. Quite impressive considering Tinseltown is full of train wrecks and yesterday’s news.
So, as usual, here are the best and worst moments in entertainment, music, and everything else pop culture that this month had to offer.
Now this rant isn’t about Brad Pitt as an actor because, I’ll admit, I’m quite a big fan of both his performances and his movie career choices.
But it’s his personal life that I’m not the biggest fan of whatsoever.
He’s like the forbidden fruit – the apple that most women around the world would love to sink their teeth into. Just ask Angelina Jolie or, years before, Jennifer Aniston. (Yes, I just mentioned those two in a sentence without picking one over the other. It’s possible you know).
Yet as people continue to argue that Angelina is a home-wrecker (because she partially is) and that Jennifer makes shitty movies (because, for the most part, she does) I’ve always wondered why no one bothered to look at the real problem here.
Jennifer Aniston recently appeared on Ellen DeGeneres airing on Friday looking fabulous as always. Surprisingly, the beautiful star will be celebrating her 40th birthday next week. She told DeGeneres that she feels great but experienced something the other day that made her a little nervous to reach the big 4-0. People.com reports that Aniston said “I found a really long gray hair, and it kind of flipped me out, It’s not my first, but it’s the fact that it was so long. I was like, ‘Oh that’s been there. How many others are there, and what does that mean? It actually brought me to tears, slightly.” The former Friends star is planning a big bash on Saturday. When asked about John Mayer’s attendance Aniston managed to avoid the question.
Jennifer Aniston and Jason Bateman have signed on to star in a “fertility-themed comedy,” Variety reports.
“The Baster” revolves around Wally (Bateman), a neurotic and insecure man who finds out his best friend Kassie (Aniston) plans to get pregnant through artificial insemination. Unbeknownst to Kassie, he replaces the donor’s deposit with his own, making him the true — and secret — father of the child.
Will Speck and Josh Gordon, who co-helmed 2007′s “Blades of Glory,” will direct from a screenplay by Allan Loeb (“21″). The movie is based on a short story by Jeffrey Eugenides that was first published in The New Yorker.
The movie is slated to begin shooting in the spring.
Aniston can currently be seen in the ensemble rom-com “He’s Just Not That Into You,” which opened in theatres Friday.
Bateman will hit the big screen in April in the political drama “State of Play,” which also stars Rachel McAdams, Russell Crowe, Ben Affleck and Helen Mirren.
STUFF THAT SUCKED IN ’08
There comes a time each year where entertainment pundits everywhere reflect on the past 12 months of pop culture. We dissect the highs and lows, we place celebs on their respective naughty and nice lists and we relish the chance to give you our dissertation on the year’s hits and misses.
So basically, I’ve been waiting for this since New Year’s Day, ‘08.
It was a big year. Some monumental shit went down in 2008. America christened its first black president (holler!), Beijing brought sexy back to the Olympics (yeah!) and Canada proved its political system is just as screwed up- if not more- as anywhere else in the world (say what?). But this isn’t about politics; it’s about good ol’ fashioned fun.
It’s about ripping apart the worst movies, music, celebrity couples and Hollywood gossip of the year.
So without further ado, here are my picks for the WORST of 2008.
5. Michael Phelps
I know, I know. He’s America’s golden boy. He’s a freak of nature. He’s the faster swimmer of all time. Blah, blah, blah. I was all for the Phelps mania during the Olympics but the hype that followed the eight golds has been too much to handle. GO AWAY Michael Phelps. I’m tired of your face! I don’t care if you’re dating a cocktail waitress from Vegas. I don’t care if you have Daddy issues. I don’t care anymore! Get in a pool and maybe I’ll stop cringing at the mention of your name. Some athletes just shouldn’t have their faces plastered everywhere. Peyton Manning, for example. And Manning still trumps Phelps. GO AWAY!
4. Twilight
Twilight freaks need lives. Maybe if they had ones, we wouldn’t have been constantly inundated with this Twilight crap in ‘08. This year saw the introduction of Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart into the zeitgeist. Two of the most awkward and uncharismatic celebrities to ever sit down for an interview or to walk a red carpet. Two of the most wild-haired teen stars out there. The movie sucked but no one talks about that because it made money. Twilight freaks camped out for days to see this crap. Twilight freaks are hailing this Pattinson loser as the next Teen Heartthrob (a title now held by my boyfriend Zac Efron). Oh, and the best part? The cast is signed on for two more movies- at least- in the series. Oh joy, more years of Twilight fever. I can’t wait.
3. Tom Cruise
This was the year Tom Cruise attempted to make us forget about the last couple years (the couch jumping, the Scientology) and hypnotize us into remembering his glory days (Top Gun, Jerry Maguire). And it almost worked. Tom promoted Valkyrie all over the world, taking interviews with whoever would talk to him and constantly plugging that this year marked the 25th anniversary of his first big hit, Risky Business. Oprah had a 25 years of Tom Cruise special and showed clips from all his biggest movies. I almost bought it- A Few Good Men is one of my favourite movies of all time. But Tom Cruise today is not the same Tom Cruise of the 90s. Nope. He’s lost it. The charm. The commanding presence. It’s gone Tom. But hey, 25 years? It was a good run.
2. Britney Spears
I went back and forth on this one. Ms. Spears is on many Best lists of ’08. She won a bunch of VMA’s. She “redeemed” herself by showing up to the show looking hot. She released an album that’s heating up the charts. Some people would say she’s had a very successful comeback. I am not one of those people. Losing weight and looking hot does not make you talented. And talented, Britney is not. In her prime, it was her over-the-top, jaw-dropping performances that made her what she is (that, and her relationship with JT). Now, she can’t even perform up-to-par. She released a documentary special on MTV that was supposed to make us understand why she went crazy in ’07 and why she’s all better in ’08. It did neither. She’s got a world tour coming up in ’09 and if she can get her act together, maybe, just maybe, that comeback will happen next year.
1. John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston
These two were made for each other. I’m just surprised they didn’t hook up before this year. They’re both love themselves. They both love getting their picture taken. They both love talking about their exes in public. Soul mates. John and Jennifer were everywhere in ’08. She had a movie to plug and he- well he just plugs himself. This couple is the Heidi and Spencer of A-list Hollywood. The only difference is that Jen’s body is real and John’s actually talented. Here’s hoping they put us out of our misery and break up in ’09.
Honourable Mentions
Katherine Heigl – Single handedly ruined Grey’s Anatomy. And television. And the world.
Madonna and A-Rod – Ew. Enough said.
Jonas Brothers – Can these guys please go away in ’09? Please. And take Miley Cyrus with you.
