The MTV Movie & TV Awards has been caught in a web of tweets from #Tomdaya fans. During the June 5 ceremony, Tom Holland and Zendaya lost the iconic Best Kiss award to Jackass Forever's Poopies and, um, a snake, sparking a social media frenzy. A surprised David Spade, who helped present the award, could even be heard on a hot mic asking his co-presenter, Sex/Life's Sarah Shahi, "They beat Zendaya?" The subtle moment got fans' Spidey senses tingling, with one Twitter user writing, "No Way Did Jackass Win Best Kiss And Not Tom And Zendaya!!! Wtf." Meanwhile, another fan tweeted, "you really telling me zendaya and tom didn't...

You can include singer-songwriter Kate Bush among the very long list of “Stranger Things” fans, and not just because her 37-year-old song “Running Up That Hill” was featured on a Season 4 episode recently and immediately climbed the charts.

“You might’ve heard that the first part of the fantastic, gripping new series of ‘Stranger Things’ has recently been released on Netflix,” she wrote on her official website. “It features the song, ‘Running Up That Hill’ which is being given a whole new lease of life by the young fans who love the show – I love it too!”

She continued, “Because of this, Running Up That Hill is charting around the world and has entered the UK chart at No. 8. It’s all really exciting! Thanks very much to everyone who has supported the song. I wait with bated breath for the rest of the series in July.”

Every once in a great while, there comes a talent so mind-blowing that it warps the fabric of human history, inspiring generations of enviers and imitators. Freddie Mercury was such a talent; so were the Beatles. And so is Tico, an 18-year-old double yellow-headed Amazon parrot who sings classic rock covers on TikTok.

With his dad Frank Maglio, Tico has made a career out of riffing on such classics as “Free Bird” and “Psycho Killer.” He started out on YouTube, but has since carved out an impressive audience on TikTok,...

“Stranger Things” music supervisor Nora Felder could very well be hearing her name when nominations for the 74th annual Emmy Awards are announced on July 12.

The three-time nominee is the reason Kate Bush is currently trending on Twitter, but that’s the tip of the iceberg of Felder’s work on the show’s fourth season. This season Felder uses needle drops to root audiences deeper in the ’80s with needle-drop picks ranging from Falco’s “Rock Me Amadeus” to the Beach Boys’ cover of “California Dreamin’.”

Here’s a guide to five of the best music moments from the first few episodes.

Silk Sonic kicked off the 2022 Grammys with an electrifying "777" performance on Sunday. Backed by a crew of saxophone, trumpet, and bass players, Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak serenaded the Las Vegas crowd to the funk-rock rhythm of their party hit, an ode to Vegas casinos. "Pretty young stunner with some money to blow / I'm 'bout to buy Las Vegas after this roll," Mars and .Paak sang into the mic, bouncing along to an energetic drumbeat interspersed with enthusiastic shouts from Mars.

Minutes later, Mars and .Paak, who currently hold a residency in Las Vegas, danced their way on stage to accept the award for best R&b song for "Leave the Door Open." "I just want to say thank you to my team, my family, my beautiful wife out there. This is for my mom - she passed on Wednesday - so this is for her," .Paak said. Mars continued,...

David Lee Roth disappointed a lot of fans earlier this week when he called off his farewell concerts at the Mandalay Bay’s House of Blues in Las Vegas. He initially only postponed his New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day shows due to “unforeseen circumstances related to Covid,” pushing them back to Feb. 11 and 12. But the entire run was yanked yesterday with no explanation.

The shows were announced in October 2021. “I am throwing in the shoes,” he told the Las Vegas Review Journal. “I’m retiring … I...

Exclusive: Polygram Entertainment, the film and television arm of Universal Music Group, is embarking on a feature documentary about iconic singer Donna Summer, with some of the biggest names in nonfiction attached to the project.

Oscar-winning filmmaker Roger Ross Williams will direct Donna, alongside Summer’s daughter, Brooklyn Sudano. Williams is producing with Oscar nominee Julie Goldman, Emmy winners Carolyn Hepburn and Christopher Clements, and Polygram chief David Blackman.

Donna marks the latest in an ambitious slate of films and series from Polygram Entertainment, leveraging the artists and catalogues of Umg. Polygram’s recent documentaries include Oscar contender The Velvet Underground, Emmy-winner The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart, and The Apollo, the winner of the 2020 Emmy for Outstanding Documentary Special that was directed by Williams and on which Goldman served as an executive producer.

“We had been involved in The Apollo documentary with Roger,...

“It’s a golden age to be an Archie Comics fan right now,” says company president Mike Pellerito with infectious enthusiasm, adding “I just can’t imagine a better time.”

The declaration is more than accurate, as the independently owned publisher is celebrating its 80th anniversary with the massive CW hit Riverdale entering its sixth season. Despite the TV success, comics are still Archie’s bread and butter, from the digest reprints that beg for impulse buys at the supermarket to a series of innovative titles that have seen Archie and his “pals and gals” become critical darlings.

Some history: In December of 1941, Mlj Comics – a publisher then best known for its stable of superheroes like The Shield, a patriotic figure who predates Captain America – released Pep #22, featuring a backup story focusing on lovable klutz Archie Andrews. It was an instant success due to the humor and charm of its cast,...

Another week, another “Saturday Night Live” hosting debut in the books. This week’s “SNL” saw Academy Award winner Rami Malek step into the hosting role for the first time ever to promote the latest James Bond film, “No Time to Die.”

Following both Owen Wilson and Kim Kardashian West’s solid entries into the “SNL” first-timer’s club, Malek came into Studio 8H with a tone set for this current season.

Host: Rami Malek

Rami Malek’s monologue took somewhat of a page out of the Peter Sarsgaard book of “SNL” hosting, focusing on his reputation as an intense actor. As Malek said himself, he has “resting villain face.”

Once again, the monologue really set a comforting tone for the rest of the episode, as this season so far has done so much to play to the strengths of its hosts from week to week. Malek’s strange charm...

An audition for a fictional Jordan Peele biopic about music icon Prince saw a surprise guest on Saturday Night Live.

Chris Redd took on the Get Out director alongside casting directors played by Punkie Johnson and Ego Nwodim. After rounds of auditions, the two actors standing were Keenan Thompson and Rami Malek who, donning their best Prince garb, participated in a “Prince-off.” In the competition, they each performed the iconic guitar lick from Prince’s “Kiss” with different prompts.

Despite their pretty equal performances, Redd’s Jordan Peele and casting directors couldn’t make a call.

“I’m sorry I don’t think I could cast a white guy to place Prince,” Redd tells Malek, just before he says it’s more fitting to cast Thompson who’s racially more fitting for the role.

Just before they make a decision, No Time To Die star Daniel Craig crashes the scene,...

Bittersweet endings are anything but rare on television. Likewise, finding Kiss on television -- especially for the aging rockers amongst us -- has been like discovering bubbles in water for the last five decades.

Gene Simmons' proud stagger and Paul Stanley's powerful pursed lips have frequented screens large and small -- just gravy atop the half century's worth of music the inspiring heavy metal musicians have bestowed throughout Kiss' legacy. 

But with Biography: KISStory, a two-night event on A&e, Kiss fans will get to see something they might not be used to. 

Paul and Gene spend much of their mini-series interviews inside Electric Lady Studios, where they laid down their first 1973 demo with recording maven Eddie Kramer. The studio was created and opened by Jimi Hendrix in New York.

While fans are used to seeing the musical superheroes playing their roles onstage and in interviews, KISStory provides them a...

Kiss have announced dates for the final leg of their End of the Road Tour, delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

Other new shows added to the roster include Toledo, Ohio; Irvine, California; Mountain View, California; Wheatland, California; Sparks, Nevada; Hidalgo, Texas; and West Palm Beach, Florida.

“Time marched on but we couldn’t,” the band said in a statement. “Now, the boots are on...

As tensions continue to flare in the Middle East, Creative Community for Peace, an apolitical, non-profit entertainment industry organization, has come together to issue a collective call for “peace, balanced discourse and an end to inflammatory one-sided accounts” of the conflict between Israel and Palestinian Territories. This divisive rhetoric, notes the org, serves only to foment an already incendiary crisis that has, this past week alone, claimed more than 200 lives.

Creative Community for Peace was founded in 2012 by David Renzer, former chairman/CEO of Universal Music Publishing, and Steve Schnur, worldwide executive & Music President, Electronic Arts.

More than 125 leaders in the entertainment industry, including Kiss frontman Gene Simmons, Grammy Award-winning artist Michael Bublé, Haim Saban, chairman & CEO, Saban Capital Group, and songwriter-producer Diane Warren, signed the Creative Community for Peace-endorsed open letter, which urges peace in the Middle East and implores fellow members of the entertainment industry to use their celebrity platforms to encourage productive,...

World premieres from Disney+, AMC, Startz, Peacock, A&e, OWN, FX and National Geographic are among the highlights of the 2021 Tribeca Festival’s 20th anniversary celebration, announced today.

The events will take place in New York City June 9-20 and claim to be the first major film festival to host in-person events since the worldwide pandemic began.

The Tribeca Festival was founded by Robert De Niro, Jane Rosenthal, and Craig Hatkoff in 2001 to spur the economic and cultural revitalization of lower Manhattan following the attacks on the World Trade Center.

The festival focus is on new and returning TV series, new indie episodic storytelling, and an industry-facing Creators Market. The Tribeca TV lineup will include nine shows made up of six series premieres, one season premiere, two docuseries, and speaking appearances by Tina Fey, Christian Slater, Joshua Jackson, Jasmine Cephas Jones, and Helen Hunt.

The Tribeca Festival will also feature a performance by rock icons Kiss.

Celebrating one of the most iconic bands of all time, A&e announces the new definitive documentary film telling the stories behind the phenomenon of Kiss. Directed by D.J.

The post A&e’s ‘Biography’ to Chronicle Kiss Career appeared first on Hollywood Outbreak.

Madonna is getting a biopic (that she’s directing herself). The Sex Pistols are getting an FX TV series. The Bee Gees are getting a film. Hell, they’re even making a brand-new Elvis Presley feature with Tom Hanks. All that to say, there is no shortage of rock star biopics coming over the next few years. And where there’s a chance for money and even more fame, you knew that Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley were going to waste no time to make sure a Kiss biopic, titled “Shout It Out Loud,” gets studio backing.

Kiss, one of the biggest bands in the history of rock music, is about to get the biopic treatment. Netflix has won a bidding war for the rights to the project, which is set to be titled Shout It Out Loud. Both Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, founding members of the legendary group, are set to produce the project and will be closely associated with it. Not that Kiss needs any help gaining recognition, but this could once again catapult them into the spotlight in a big way. If all goes according to plan.

According to a new report, Shout It Out Loud is set to be directed by Joachim Ronning. The filmmaker's previous credits include Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. Ole Sanders penned the most recent draft of the screenplay, with William Blake Herron penning an earlier version. Though no other suitors were named,...

Exclusive: Netflix is near a deal for Shout It Out Loud, a film package that aspires to do for the iconic hard rock band Kiss what Bohemian Rhapsody did for Queen.

According to sources, Netflix is tying up a deal after a bidding battle for a film that will be directed by Joachim Rønning, the Norwegian filmmaker whose credits include Kon-Tiki, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales. The script is written by Ole Sanders. An earlier draft was done by William Blake Herron. The pic will be a co-production of Mark Canton’s Atmosphere Entertainment and Universal Music Group.

Shout It Out Loud will have close cooperation from bandleaders Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. The band’s concert-arena anthems will be a big part of this, but the film will focus on that duo going back to when they were two...

Exclusive: Savion Einstein is adapting Helen Hoang’s romance novel Kiss Quotient for Lionsgate. The studio acquired the novel two years as we first told you.

In addition, Kristin Burr through her Burr! Productions banner will be joining the feature alongside Craig Piligian through Lionsgate’s Pilgrim Media Group. Piligian was already attached to the project when Lionsgate was selling the title AFM two years ago.

Kiss Quotient follows Stella Lane, a brilliant econometrician on the autism spectrum, who knows everything about algorithms but finds the nuances of relationships terrifying and insurmountable. In an effort to grow comfortable with the idea of dating, she comes to a very logical conclusion: hiring a male escort. But as someone who thought math was the only thing that united the universe, Stella unexpectedly finds love and acceptance for being herself with the unlikeliest of partners.

The Kiss Quotient is the first book in a series by Hoang,...

With the To All the Boys series set to wrap up this week, it’s time to talk about what the next big Netflix young adult romance adaptation could be—because we now know it’s not going to be The Summer I Turned Pretty. The streamer has been leaning much more heavily into the teen romance genre in recent years, which means some iconic YA romance getting screen adaptations. On that note, it’s recently come to my attention that Anna and the French Kiss, the debut novel from author Stephanie Perkins that follows an American teen to Paris for her senior year of high school, is 20 years old. It’s a foundational text of the genre, and it’s long past time it gets the screen treatment. Now that mainstream content creators are recognizing the power of romance as a genre, where is the Anna and the French...

One day circa 1964, a young Diane Warren looked at the songwriting credits on The Drifters’ “Up on the Roof” and decided upon her life’s mission. “It said (Goffin/King),” she says. “I remember wanting to be in the parentheses.” Warren ended up writing dozens of hits, beginning with DeBarge’s “Rhythm of the Night” in 1985, with nine songs hitting number one, from Toni Braxton’s “Un-Break My Heart” to Aerosmith’s “I Don’t Want to Miss A Thing.”

Christmas movies are typically designed to instil warm and fuzzy feelings in the audience, and the plots are usually straightforward stories that deliver the requisite happy endings and see the characters rediscover the importance of their friends, families and loved ones, as well as their Christmas spirit.

However, there’s definitely a market for alternative festive films, one that’s been filled over the decades by action classic Die Hard, the anarchic Gremlins, Gothic superhero sequel Batman Returns, the foul-mouthed Bad Santa, the tongue in cheek horror of Krampus and virtually Shane Black’s entire filmography from Lethal Weapon and The Long Kiss Goodnight to Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Iron Man 3.

Writer/directors Eshom and Ian Nelms are the latest to throw their hats into the ring with Fatman, and the movie is destined to become a cult classic for fans that like their Christmas cheer to be...

Pleased to Meet Me was the sound of the Replacements trying for once. The band’s previous five LPs were snarky slacker masterpieces full of chintzy songs about hating music ’cause it’s got too many notes, ironic Kiss covers, and the occasional tender ballad, and their concerts were more like drunken hootenannies — all of this sloppiness was what won them their legend. But sometime after recording their beloved Tim album, Paul Westerberg decided they ought to grow up a little, the group parted ways with founding guitarist Bob Stinson,...

Superhero movies have a notoriously poor track record on sincerely depicting disenfranchised or marginalized groups on the screen, LGBTQ+ or otherwise. Often every time a Hollywood studio brags about including a gay character in a major blockbuster, it turns out to be a character without a name, or a background player whose public display of affection can be easily trimmed out of international cuts of the film. That doesn’t appear to be the case with The New Mutants.

While we still have not actually seen the long-forthcoming superhero-horror movie hybrid, much to the chagrin of the movie’s makers, the picture does appear to be striving for something different. Rather than depicting a romance in the margins or by intimation, The New Mutants is supposed to make a building connection between Rahne Sinclair (Maisie Williams) and Danielle Moonstar (Blu Hunt) the heart of its narrative. And all involved clearly want to get it right.

Exclusive: Veteran Cartoonist and director Tony Cervone has signed with CAA for representation.

He most recently directed and voiced a handful of characters in Warner Bros. Animation’s Scooby-Doo pic Scoob, which became #1 on PVOD when Warner Bros. released it in May. It was recently moved over to HBO Max in June, where it still resides. The film is the latest take on the classic cartoon and marks one of many Scooby-Doo project he’s been involved over the years. He also directed, Scooby-Doo Kiss – a Rock and Roll Mystery, in 2015, which combined pop icons Scooby-Doo and Rock and Roll Hall of Famers, Kiss, with its world premiere happening in Hall H at the 2015 Comic-Con International in San Diego and was released in July 2015.

Given the bleak state of the world at the moment, you’d think that horror – a genre which typically destroys rather than reinforces our faith in humanity – is the last thing that people are wanting to see. Rest assured, however, that there is no limit to the sadomasochistic ways of the human heart. For better or worse, then, here are a few expertly-crafted yet little-known scary pictures that you can find on Netflix.

First off, we have a 2018 film called Calibre. Frequently recommended by acclaimed thriller writer Stephen King, this Scottish feature follows two friends whose weekend hunting trip is turned into a nail-biting, paranoia-inducing experience following a horrific accident. Sorry to keep the synopsis vague like that, but the plot is really better experienced without spoilers.

Super Dark Times, meanwhile, has a pretty similar premise: two friends turn on each other following a tragedy. Though the name may remind...

Phase 2 of the McU kicked off with the return to the franchise that started it all. Iron Man 3 proved to be the final solo film for Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark and one of the most divisive McU films. The movie follows Tony's paranoia following the events of The Avengers and the attacks by the villain known as the Mandarin.

The film reunited Downey Jr. with his Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang director Shane Black, who infused a great pulpy sense of humor to the film as it took Tony Stark out of his comfort zone. While not everyone's favorite of the series, it is one worth revisiting. Here are some of the most memorable quotes from Iron Man 3.

To mark the fourth anniversary of Prince’s death this week, the producers of the Grammys put together an all-star tribute to the Purple One with performances of his songs by John Legend, the Foo Fighters, St. Vincent, Morris Day and the Time, and many others. Strangely absent from the festivities, though, was “What’s New Pussycat?” belter Tom Jones, who experienced a late-career renaissance in the late Eighties, in part thanks to a sleek, hyper–New Wave cover of Prince’s “Kiss” that he recorded with Art of Noise.

Confirming that he is working on the project, director AP Arjun has told in an interview to the Times of India that he has completed 50 percent of the script. The director added that it is being planned as a complete commercial potboiler but its speciality is that it is a subject associated with reality; therefore, will bring out the raw emotions. AP Arjun has been quoted by The New Indian Express as saying, “Genre-wise, this is a first-of-its-kind attempt from my end, and a completely different genre from my previous films, ranging from Ambari to Kiss.” On choosing his star cast,...

“The Masked Singer” panel was stumped once again when none of them had any clue that “Dancing With the Stars” host and comedian Tom Bergeron was hiding behind the Taco mask (watch above). Bergeron Aka Taco was eliminated on Wednesday, March 4 after failing to snag as many votes as Banana, Frog and Kitty. Despite Robin Thicke, Jenny McCarthy and Nicole Scherzinger knowing Bergeron personally, they nor fellow panelists Ken Jeong and T-Pain had any idea he had been serenading them for weeks.

“Jenny!” Bergeron exclaimed as he pulled off his mask. “Jenny wrote the blurb on the cover of my book about 10 years ago, Robin has been on ‘Dancing With the Stars,’ Nicole won ‘Dancing With the Stars’! Of the regular panelists, the only one who is not a friend, not surprisingly, is Ken,” Bergeron joked.

As part of their Standard Definition program, which explores the transition from celluloid to digital, the festival will present films from Agnès Varda, Chantal Akerman, Abbas Kiarostami, and Hal Hartley, along with U.S. theatrical premieres of Dominik Graf’s Friends of Friends and Franco Piavoli Affettuosa presenza and Paesaggi e figure. Also in the lineup is rarely screened works by Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Kevin Jerome Everson, along with Michael Snow’s 2002 film Corpus Callosum and his most recent project, Cityscape.

Argentine-British artist Jessica Sarah Rinland will also get the spotlight,...

It’s another big-star MGM romantic comedy, and not exactly a classic. Debbie Reynolds and Glenn Ford pick their way through a travelogue story that seems made of leftovers from I Love Lucy, inventing flat-farce gimmicks to sex things up without offending the Production Code. What’s the movie most remembered for? It features the exotic concept car that became TV’s Batmobile.

Prince’s death in 2016 spurred a global outpouring of sobering grief coupled with an attempt to celebrate his legacy via musical tributes. Four years later, fans and musicians continue to look for ways to properly send off the legendary musician. On Tuesday night at the Los Angeles Convention Center, modern guitar heroes and the Hall of Famer’s past collaborators coalesced for Let’s Go Crazy: The Grammy Salute to Prince, an all-star memorial featuring H.E.R., Chris Martin, Foo Fighters, Earth, Wind & Fire and John Legend.

The 2020 Grammy Awards tribute to Prince had some fans scratching heads. On Sunday night, Usher and Fka Twigs took to the stage to honor the late icon—who passed away in 2016—with a rendition of some of his greatest songs, including "Kiss" and "When Doves Cry." The performance was partially to promote the upcoming Let's Go Crazy: The Grammy Salute to Prince concert that includes artists like Beck, Common, John Legend and more, but left fans upset when Twigs never got to join Usher on the microphone. During the performance, Twigs was seen gracefully dancing on a pole to the side of the "Yeah!" singer, and at one point even...

Prince’s spirit continued to preside over pop life at the Grammys with some help from Usher and Fka Twigs on Sunday night. However, not everyone was feeling the R&b legend and avant-pop maven after they hit the stage to perform a medley of Prince classics.

“Imagine making the decision to not let Fka Twigs sing anything at all,” @robsheff tweeted.

Taking the stage in a sparkling blue-green suit, Usher gave the crowd some hip-shaking, old-school showmanship inspired by the Purple One on “Little Red Corvette.” Fka Twigs took the stage during “When Doves Cry,” performing an elegant pole dance during the sultry synths of doves crying during the breakdown.

Still, her silent contribution left some skeptical.

There's no one like His Royal Badness. At the 2020 Grammy Awards, Prince was posthumously honored by Usher and Fka Twigs by performing some of the pop icon's best songs. Taking the stage in a glittery, blue suit, Usher kicked off the rendition with "Little Red Corvette," before transitioning into the legend's record "When Doves Cry." While Usher sang, Fka Twigs danced and spun on a pole before joining the singer as he launched into "Kiss." The high-energy performance was introduced by Alicia Keys, who also mentioned how her friendship with the late icon was sparked when he allowed her to cover his song "How Come U Don't...
