Yowza. Fast Five exceeded all projections this weekend with a stunning $83.6 million opening — the best ever for a Universal release, and a nearly 18 percent jump over the debut haul of its 2009 predecessor Fast and Furious . Its competition, meanwhile — including a pair of new, badly underperforming family films — was left behind like so much roadkill. Your weekend receipts are here.
The White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner was held in Washington, DC on Saturday night, and amid much Donald Trump bashing — key speaker Seth Meyers roundly eviscerated the Celebrity Apprentice host — President Barack Obama debuted a fake trailer for The President’s Speech . As you can guess, it owes much to recent Best Picture winner The King’s Speech , as well as Peter Gabriel, “Shimmy Shimmy Ya,” and Joe Biden’s foot-in-mouth disease. Click ahead to watch.
Add another name to the list of folks who have a problem with NeNe Leakes. Kim Zolciak has been feuding with this reality star for years, Star Jones jumped in during her run on Celebrity Apprentice , and now Hope Dworaczyk has sounded off with her take on the Real Housewife of Atlanta. “I liked Nene a lot until I had to be her boss,” the Playmate told E! News, previewing an episode that airs tonight. “One minute she was crying and opening up about herself and sharing something about the past that’s very very personal, and the next minute, she’s yelling. I think you can call it unstable.” Does Dworaczyk therefore understand why Star Jones wanted a bodyguard to protect her from Leakes? Yes. “It was out of control,” she said. “I think if I had been yelled at and attacked the way Nene gets in Star’s face, I would have wanted a bodyguard, too.”

As the greatest female pop vocalist of the last half-century, Dionne Warwick doesn’t need to go off and do a season of Celebrity Apprentice to retain her place in the American cultural canon. The American cultural consciousness, however? OK, sure. Cosmically unfair as it is, the woman who made swinging, tearjerking hits of Bacharach/David masterpieces like “Walk on By” and “Anyone Who Had a Heart” has slid to sub-Carnie Wilson depths of recognition — a criminal oversight worthy of a prime-time, mass-market correction whose time has come, starting with Sunday’s season premiere. This will happen .
