Video - Young Leo Howard Kickin' It In "Conan the Barbarian 3D" – New Trailer

Anybody who has been watching the new Disney XD show “Kickin’ It” knows who 14-year-old Leo Howard is.

Leo, who has a black belt in karate and is a martial arts master in real life, has displayed his skills in the Disney Wasabi Dojo profiled in the show and has made “Kickin’ It” a smash hit for the network.

Now he is branching out into his first big screen action adventure movie while taking a starring role.

But in August we are going to see a side to Leo that Disney will never show you.

Howard is playing the young “Conan the Barbarian” in the August 19th release of the 3D action film starring Ron Pearlman, Jason Momoa as adult Conan, Rose McGowan - and Leo as Conan as a child.

“Conan the Barbarian 3D” tells the tale of a quest that begins as a personal vendetta for the fierce warrior, but soon turns into an epic battle against enormous rivals, horrifying monsters, shirtless villains, and impossible odds.

Conan realizes he is the only hope of saving the great nations of Hyboria from an encroaching reign of supernatural evil.

Lionsgate has just released a new red band trailer showing Leo in his role as young Conan while taking part in an epic challenge to decide who will fight with the warriors.

It shows young Conan participating in a challenge where he has to race through the woods with and egg in his mouth, and deliver it unbroken to the final destination.

But along the way the group is ambushed by the enemy and an epic battle ensues and Leo kicks some serious butt.

There is lots of blood and gore and Leo Howard saves the group and returns to the elders with the severed heads of three bad guys – then spits the unbroken egg from his mouth!

This is the first “Conan” trailer where we really get to see Leo in action and he does impress us with both his acting ability and martial arts moves.

The kid definitely knows how to fight.

Watch Leo Howard in the Conan Red Band Trailer


Leo is no stranger to Hollywood.

He has already had roles in “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra”, “Shorts”, and “Logan” before snagging his role with Disney.

Howard also starred in the TV series “Zeke and Luther”, “Children of the Corn”, and “Aussie and Ted's Great Adventure”.

With a smash hit television series and now a major role in an action adventure movie we suspect Leo will be a hot property in the near future and will have directors beating down his door with job offers.

Being a teen idol seems to come naturally to the young star and he is not afraid to take the shirtless pose for teen idol magazines to keep the interest up among his young female fans.

If your kids aren’t talking about Leo Howard yet – they will be soon.

Ashton Kutcher is in Charge at “Two and a Half Men” – New Photos and Massive New Trailer!

There is now doubt that the new season of “Two and a Half Men” is well underway.

The story line has been updated to kill off write out Charlie Sheen’s character.

Advertising posters have been updated showing Ashton Kutcher in his new role.

Scripts are being written and rewritten.

Story lines are being developed and set changes and adaptions are underway.

Wardrobe is busy creating new costumes and set decorators are updating the sound-stage.

And to show the public that things are moving forward at full speed, CBS and Warner Bros. has released new artwork showing the new cast.


The “Curtain Shot” above was used for previous seasons and has been updated to show the new cast changes and a maturing Angus T. Jones.


The sound stage art has been updated to remove Sheen’s picture.


The half-naked shirtless picture of Angus T. Jones, Kutcher and veteran Jon Cryer was release last month hailing the new season starting September 19th.


TMZ grabbed a picture of Kutcher’s new colossal two story trailer parked outside the sound stage.

Almost as big as some peoples house, it will be were the actor cools down during rehearsals and grabs a little rest when not needed on the set.

We can’t wait to watch the first new show and see how poor Uncle Charley met his end.

We are also looking forward to a new set of “Two and a Half Men” blooper and gag reels shot during filming the new season as we hear Ashton is a blast to work with and crazy funny while on set.

Godspeed Chuck Lorre. Take your time and do it justice.

Justin Bieber Pulled Over by Cops in Miami - Photo

Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber and his friend Sean Kingston ran into a little trouble Friday night in Miami.

As we reported earlier, Bieber and Kingston were out driving Sean’s convertible Rolls Royce Friday while taking video of them playing pranks on various establishments.

First, they purchased a Frosty from a Wendy’s and tried to return it to a Burger King. Then they pulled off a quick “double coning” while almost hitting a wall in their $400,000 ride before running into a bit of trouble with the law.

Related: Justin Bieber goes coning – almost hits wall with car - Video

The official word Friday night was that Bieber called the cops HIMSELF outside a South Beach T.G.I.F. Restaurant after fans spotted them and started to crowd around the teen idol’s car.

But now we are learning that that was not the whole story.

A witness and employee of T.G.I.F. told HollywoodLife,

“An undercover police officer was driving behind Justin and Sean Kingston. He pulled them over in front of the restaurant on Ocean Drive because he thought it was strange that this young kid was driving a brand new convertible Rolls-Royce.

While he was pulled over, people started recognizing that it was Justin Bieber and they started to surround the car. The police officer told the crowd to back away and then instructed Justin to drive off.”

As it turns out, the undercover Police officer was following the Rolls-Royce because he had noticed the pranking and didn’t recognize the driver and felt he looked “extremely young” to be driving such an expensive car.

He pulled them over for a well-being and suspicious vehicle check.



Word is after the cop realized it was Justin Bieber everybody had a good laugh and the cops helped to disperse the crowd that had gathered before sending the singer on his way.

We think if you’re going to go out and play pranks - a better idea would have been to NOT use a $400,000 Rolls as that may be a bit conspicuous.

Bieber was in Miami with his girlfriend Selena Gomez while she was performing a show as part of her “We Own the Night” concert tour.

This was the first time Sean Kingston had been seen in public since his tragic Jet-Ski accident a few months back that left him in intensive care for weeks.

Related: Sean Kingston in critical condition after accident

But this latest run in with the cops seems to be playing into the hands of critics who say Justin has changed and is no longer that little clean-cut teen idol that used to laugh and smile all the time.

Observers say his sudden fame and tremendous financial success has started to affect his personality.

Just last week there were photos released of Justin and his dad Jeremy getting matching Hebrew Jesus tattoos under their left arm.

Related: Justin and his dad get matching Jesus tattoos - Photos

The two also inked matching five pointed star tattoos on their left elbow a few months back as well.

Not that there is anything wrong with that, it’s just that his fans were not expecting him to get inked up and start getting pulled over by cops and flipping off the paparazzi at such a young age.

We think it’s just a case of a young man growing into his teen years doing what every teen in America does at that age.

Coning is harmless – and it could be worse. He could be doing crack with Lindsay Lohan or smoking weed with Snoop Dog.

We say let him be, and hope he has the right people surrounding him while at the same time giving him enough space to be a kid.

Video - Ronan Parke Does Lady Gaga “Edge of Glory” – Preps for First Album

Not a lot of people in the United Sates know who Ronan Parke is.

He came in second place in the “Britain’s Got Talent” television show last year and, much like our own United States AGT runner-up Jackie Evancho, seems to be doing pretty well for himself.

Ronan, who was only 12-years-old when he competed on BGT, has already been signed to a record label and is preparing his first studio album.

But it has not been an easy ride for young Ronan.

During the Britain’s Got Talent competition he and Simon Cowell were accused of rigging the competition.

Parke was accused of training in secret for two years under the care of Simon – who was also accused of paying for his vocal couch and buying his cloths and sitting him with a fashion coach.

In fact, the day before the final show Cowell actually called the police to try and stop the rumors.

Watch Ronan Parke Talk about BGT Scandal


Ronan started singing when he was only three and has been taking singing lessons the last two years. After singing at a few birthday parties he decided to enter the BGT auditions.

He blew away the judges and audience, and was booked for the show and made it all the way to second place.

Watch Ronan Parke Sing on Britain's Got Talent


But now the show is over and Ronan has been in the studio after being signed by Simon Cowell’s record label.

He has also been performing live shows and has appeared at the Manchester Opera House, The True Loves Academy in London, The Edge Festival in Edinburgh, and at The Kazimier in Liverpool.

Not bad for the now 13-year-old.

His upcoming album will release on October 24, 2011 and will consist of remixes of popular cover songs.

In preparation for the new album release, Parke has been giving his fans a sneak peek at the various tracks.

One that caught our eye was an acoustic version of Lady Gaga’s “Edge of Glory”.

Watch Ronan Park Sing Lady Gaga’s Edge of Glory


He may not be the next Justin Bieber, Greyson Chance or Cody Simpson but this kid has talent.

Ronan says that music is in his blood and it is all he wants to do in life. His parents are behind him 100 percent and it seems he is off to a good start.

You can visit Ronan on his Facebook page and can pre-order his new album here on Amazon.

Go get ‘em kid.

Video - Meet Austin Mahone – Social Media Genius or the Next Justin Bieber?

Have you ever heard of Austin Mahone?

I bet your kids have. And they either love him or hate him – but they have heard of him.

So, who is Austin Mahone? What’s his bio?

Mahone lives in San Antonia Texas and is a 15-year-old singer and musician known for looking like Justin Bieber and recording cover songs on YouTube.

So what? There are lots of kids uploading videos and singing covers these days right?

But Mahone and his fans are different.

His fans are known as Mahomies - and he has his own Blog, Facebook, YouTube, Dailybooth, Tumblr, Twitter, SoundCloud, Formspring, and Myspace accounts.

He records popular cover songs and posts them to YouTube and interacts with his fans on a daily basis and claims that Justin Bieber is his favorite artist.



And oh yea, Mahone LOOKS like Justin Bieber and his fans love him.

The thing that fascinates us about this young man is his savvy for working the social media to create a name for himself while building his own fan base from the ground up without a record label or marketing rep.

He has learned to do what many adults and big companies have failed to do – create a successful brand.

In addition to uploading covers he has hundreds of thousands of Facebook fans, dedicated fan sites, over 13 million YouTube views, and sells t-shirts, posters, wristbands, Stickers, and Necklaces.

Heck, he's even been know to run around shirtless just to tease his female fans.

This is the kind of interaction that defines social media.

His fans love him but he admits that he also has haters saying,

“Haterz don’t matter to me because they are just jealous and the hateful words that they say are garbage. That’s why I don't listen to hate. I am curious of what haterz have to say sometimes just because I'm a curious person. But their opinions of me don't matter to me, because I’m not trying to please them.

What is important are my fans. I love them so much and everything they do for me. Haterz can't hurt you unless you let them. And I just have one last thing to say.... Haterz gonna hate Mahomies gonna love.”

Austin’s success is a prime example of how social media can springboard you into fame, build a fan base, and possibly launch a music career if you’re good enough.

So how powerful can a homegrown fan base be to a young artist like Mahone?



One day last week his fans decided he should appear on the “Ellen Show” with Ellen DeGeneres, and in one magnificent push of social media network power trended the phrase “#MahoneOnEllen” on twitter for the day as a worldwide trending topic.

His fans also bombarded DeGeneres’s Twitter and Facebook account and called her studio’s switchboard requesting she book Austin as a guest.

Why is this significant?

Because it was Ellen DeGeneres and her “eleveneleven” record label that discovered 14-year-old Greyson Chance.

And with less effort than Austin, Greyson has been propelled into a celebrity status with his first album “Hold on ‘til the Night” due to release next week.

Related: Greyson Chance gives video tour of his home town - Video

That kind of power by your own fans is exactly what made Justin Bieber what he is today.

One thing that helps make Mahone a fan favorite is he covers songs that are popular in today’s young music culture ranging from Cody Simpson, Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, Ne-yo, Usher, Adele, Chris Brown, and Edwin McCain.



So take note big record labels.

The youth of today have developed the social media skills to find, fall in love, promote, and make famous the musical artists THEY want to see and listen to - not who YOU want them to listen to.

Not that there’s not any place for “big music”, but things are changing these days and kids have grown frustrated with the “business as usual” mentality shown by the music industry.

They say that “necessity is the mother of invention”, and our kids are inventing a new way to communicate and enjoy their favorite artists and musicians.

We hope some of the adults out there are listening because these kids can teach us a thing or two about what makes them tick – and they are showing us what it is they want to listen to and who they want to fall in love with as a fan.

After all, if Justin Bieber's pet cat "Spaz" can get his own @Justins_Cat twitter account - than anything is possible!

Time will tell if a shirtless Austin Mahone will become the next big teen idol or music sensation…

Video - Justin Bieber Goes “Coning” – Almost Drives His Car into a Wall

What do you do when your worth $100 million dollars and bored?

You go coning!

While taking a break from working on his new album “Believe”, teen pop sensation Justin Bieber almost drove his car into a wall while coning at a local restaurant.

He also bought a Frosty from Burger King and tried to return it to a Wendy’s but was shut down by an astute manager.

And he filmed it all on his flip-cam.

Watch Justin Bieber Coning Video


As we told you last week, it seems that “Owling” is the new “Planking” but it looks like “Coning” may be taking the lead as the new social phenomenon.

The concept is simple.

Buy an ice cream cone at a drive-thru and when you grab it - you grab it upside down with the ice cream in the palm of your hand.

Related: Owling is the new Planking - Photos

But I guess when you work as hard as Bieber has the last three years you are entitled to a little time off and harmless fun.

For his part, Justin has been in the studio working on his new album “Believe” – and the buzz is starting to grow.

Related: Justin Bieber talks new album "Believe" – Video

With a list of top song writers and A-list producers working with him everyone is excited to hear what he is laying down.

Most suspect this new album will be a radical departure from his bubble gum “Baby” days and usher in the new “Justin Timberlake” era of his career.

And keeping in line with his maturing image, Bieber and his dad just released photos of their adventure to the tattoo parlor where they both got inked with matching tats of the Hebrew word for Jesus down their left side.

Like father like son.

Ah, they grow up fast these days don’t they?

And while Justin is enjoying some time off, his girlfriend Selena Gomez is back on the road with her band touring and just celebrated her 19th birthday.

As a birthday present, Bieber surprised Gomez on stage during her show to belt out “Cry me a river” as his gift to her.

Lady Gaga to Release Book of 350 Photos This Fall

Remember in the 1980’s when Madonna released her controversial book of scandalous photos?

The press condemned the move as a blatant attempt to use sex to sell a book of photos, and book stores around the country covered it with black plastic that only increased the desire to see what was on the inside.

Classic Madonna marketing.

Now, true to form, Madonna Lady Gaga is following in her footsteps, which seems to be her mode of operation these days.

Related: Lady Gaga accused of ripping off Madonna – Video

Lady Gaga is partnering with famous fashion photographer Terry Richardson to release a book of photos said to contain almost 350 pictures of Queen Gaga herself – in both color and black and white.

“Terry followed her around for almost a year during her Monster Ball tour and the subsequent recording of her ‘Born This Way’ album. He has collected the best of the best photos and they will be displayed throughout the book with comments from Gaga herself.”

The singer also wrote an extended forward to introduce her little monsters to her book smarts and meat dresses.

If this sounds familiar it is – Madonna already did it.

We can only imagine what kind of photos to expect as Ms. Queen Lady has quite an extensive collection of fashion accessories – think meat dress and plastic eggs.

But we do know that Lady Gaga actually has a softer side to her bizarre public persona that she rarely displays.

In fact, last week as a guest judge on “So You Think You Can Dance” she broke down in tears while on camera.

Related: Lady Gaga Cries on So You Think You Can Dance – Video

Releasing a book only seems fitting for the Platinum recording artist and concert touring Queen.

She is the Queen Bee of social media having amassed over 12 million Twitter followers – behind only teen pop sensation Justin Bieber.

And if these Lady Gaga fan tattoos inked by her devoted fans are any indication, then she has definitely penetrated the world’s popular music culture.

She also knows how to push the edge with controversy.

Earlier this month she performed in a wheelchair and mermaid outfit pulled directly from Bette Midler’s bag of tricks from decades ago indicating she may be running out of Madonna tactics to steal.

Time will tell…

Photo - Ashton Kutcher and Angus T. Jones Appear in First New “Two and a Half Men” Promos

The Fall television season is fast approaching and all eyes will be on Ashton Kutcher and the new season of “Two and a Half Men”.

CBS, Warner Bros., and Chuck Lorre have the huge task of writing out Charlie Sheen and writing in a believable Ashton Kutcher storyline.

Can they do it?

Last week a new photo emerged of a half-naked and shirtless Angus T. Jones, Jon Cryer, and Kutcher standing behind a new “Two and a Half Men” poster.


Executive Producer Chuck Lorre has hinted that poor old Uncle Charley may be killed off in a plane crash so

“He can never make an appearance on the show ever again…”

We suspect there will be tons of interest and lots of people watching the first new episode to see how things shake out.

And this week a new curtain shot photo was released giving us a little preview of Ashton’s appearance for the show.


We were surprised they let him keep his unkempt hair figuring they would want a little more “clean cut” character – but hey, we’re not the boss.

But even with Charlie Sheen gone, we still enjoy watching some of the bloopers from the early days.

Related: Two and a Half Men Bloopers and Gag Reel – Video

For his part, Sheen is still trying to collect a $100 million payday from CBS but insiders say the case could be tied up in court for years and he will probably only get a fraction of what he is seeking – if any.

There is also a rumor that the crazy neighbor “Rose” played by Melanie Lynskey will be returning in some capacity as will Mom Evelyn Harper played by Holland Taylor.

And of course we hear that a sweet spot has been reserved for our favorite housekeeper Berta played by Conchata Ferrell.

The new season will premiere on September 19 at 9:00 pm on CBS.

Video – New “Journey” Rocks the Today Show – Talks About New Album

Anybody who grew up during the 1970’s and 1980’s remembers the original band Journey.

Who can forget "Don't Stop Believin”, “Lights”, “Open Arms”, “Wheel in the Sky”, “Any Way You Want It”, and "Lovin', Touchin', Squeezin”?

And who could forget the unforgettable voice of Steve Perry?

Journey has been through a lot of transition since their inception when members from the original Santana left to create the new band.

Lead singer Steve Perry was hired in 1977 and became what most of us think about today when we think of the voice of Journey.

But today is a new day and Perry has left the group and been replaced by Pilipino lead singer Arnel Pineda.

Arnel is not the first replacement for Perry – but he is the latest.

We were excited when it was announced they would be performing on NBC’s “Today” Show - and if we close our eyes we can almost hear Perry – and remember the golden early days.

Watch the new “Journey” on the NBC Today Show

Okay, they aren’t bad – but it just doesn’t seem the same as it was in the old days.

But Journey has definitely left their mark on popular culture.

"Don't Stop Believin” was used on “The Sopranos”, and then adapted for the hit television show “Glee” and the “Family Guy”.

The band's second album with Arnel Pineda, “Eclipse”, was released in May 2011 and debuted in the top ten on the Billboard 200 chart.

Video - Lady Gaga Moved to Tears on “So You Think You Can Dance” – Marko Germar Reigns

Wow, what an emotional night on “So You Think You Can Dance”.

Not only was the dance emotional, but SYTYCD guest judge Lady Gaga actually broke down in tears – sobbing as she voiced her feelings.

In an amazing dance by Marko Germar and Allison to Jeff Buckley‘s passionate tune “I Know It’s Over”, they stunned the judges and the audience as they moved fluidly across the stage.

It really was very impressive and they got a standing ovation from the judges.

By the time the dance was over and the cameras panned to the judges it was clear that Lady Gaga had been moved to tears.

“I’m just so proud of you. There are so, so many things I did wrong when I was younger. And so many things I wish I could take back and I felt every moment of that through your dance tonight.”

After Gaga’s tearful critique of his performance, Marko pointed out his mother in the audience and said this was the first time she had ever had the chance to see him dance live and apologized for not being the best kid as he was growing up.

It moved his mother to tears.

Marko told his mom,

“This is the first time my Mom has got to see me dance live, I dedicate this dance to her. I wasn’t the best kid, I was a bit if a brat and I said some things that I shouldn’t and I want to say I’m sorry and I love you.”

Originally from the South Pacific island of Guam, Marko Germar moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to pursue a career in performance dance.

Watch Marko German Dance and Lady Gaga Cry


He has worked at Disneyland as a dancer for the show "Aladdin - The Musical Spectacular” for almost two years.

When Marko was only ten years old he started taking professional dance lessons in a studio in Guam called DANZJAZZ and continued there for nine years training in Jazz, Ballet, Tap, Hip-Hop, Ballroom and Gymnastics.

Last night his hard work paid off.

Video - Fabio Challenges Old Spice Guy to a Duel – Mustafa Accepts – It’s On!

Hello, ladies and handsomely men!

In what may become the next epic battle, Fabio has issued a challenge to the old “Old Spice” guy – he has challenged Mustafa to a duel.

That’s right – Fabio Lanzoni has become the new “Old Spice Guy”.

In a new ad campaign created by Portland Oregon firm Wieden & Kennedy, Fabio has been shown on television and YouTube challenging the old “Old Spice” guy Isaiah Mustafa to a duel.

Mustafa, who has represented the Proctor and Gamble cologne for years says he is up to the challenge and prepared for the fight.

P&G says,

“In this campaign Fabio is the ‘New Old Spice Guy’ replacing Isaiah Mustafa. The commercials are part of Old Spice's campaign ‘ManoAMano in el Bano’ in which ‘The Old Old Spice Guy’ accepts Fabio's challenge.

We wanted something young and hip, but also something that was more than just TV ads. By utilizing YouTube and other social media we can draw attention to our product and create both new and younger consumers. So far it has been a tremendous success.”



Fabio is no stranger to plugging products. In the past he has been a spokesman for I Can’t Believe it’s Not Butter, Geek Squad, Oral-B, and Nationwide Insurance.

He also has developed a woman’s clothing line for Sam’s Club and has penned several fitness books and appeared in the movies “The Exorcist 3”, “Dude, Where’s My Car?”, “Zoolander”, “Spy Hard”, and “Death Becomes Her”.



We have to admit – it is a clever and funny campaign and suspect it will do well.

Isaiah Mustafa is no stranger to television either.

Since his career took off in 2005 he has appeared in numerous television shows including “Chuck”, “Ugly Betty”, “NCIS”, “Football Wives”, “Castle”, “Love Bites”, and “Hot in Cleveland”.

He is also a veteran of the big screen and just appeared in the movie “Horrible Bosses” and is currently filming the 2012 remake of “The Three Stooges” starring Sofía Vergara, Jane Lynch, Larry David, and Sean Hayes as ‘Larry’.

We applaud P&G on their creativity and use of multiple media platforms and think this is the new normal for a successful advertising campaign.

Kajal Agarwal thanks all her stars for helping her bag the plum role in Maatran opposite Suriya.
The movie went to floors last Friday. She plays Suriya's ladylove in the movie, that is being directed by K V Anand.
She had already shared the screen with Suriya's sibling Karthi in Naan Mahan Alla. Ask about the difference acting between both, she says, 'Well, they’re both very professional and get into the skin of the characters they’re playing. They don’t act on the sets; they just behave!'.

Meanwhile she is happy that her maiden Hindi venture Singham opposite Ajay Devgn is doing good.
