A few days after Kim Kardashian made a cameo on one of that show’s live episodes, sources tell The New York Post that this reality star is interested in becoming a “comedy actress.” “She really wants to be the next Sofia Vergara,” the insider says. It is true that Kim and the Modern Family star have two, large, bouncy things in common. Compare them below and then decide: Which would you prefer to rail?

Radiohead Brightens Coachella’s Second Day

Career-spanning set features icons’ newest tracks and older fan favorites. By Mary J. DiMeglio Radiohead’s Thom Yorke performs during day two of the Coachella music festival Photo: Getty Images INDIO, California — Radiohead brought their huge sound and eye-candy backdrop to the Coachella festival’s polo fields Saturday night in a fairly mellow set, heavy with cuts from their latest offering, The King of Limbs . Amidst their newest tracks — including “Morning Mr Magpie,” “Lotus Flower” and “Give Up the Ghost” — the British rock icons sprinkled tunes spanning much of their catalog, from Kid A rave-up “Idioteque” to In Rainbows’ “Bodysnatchers” and “15 Step.” Of “Karma Police,” their first classic selection of the night, singer Thom Yorke said, “You know those people who are only talking to you because they want something from you? You need to take a cold shower afterwards.” Radiohead, who last graced the polo fields in 2004, are also headlining Bonnaroo in June. The fivesome answered calls for an encore with longtime fan favorite “Lucky,” “Reckoner” and the alternately soaring and intense “Paranoid Android.” Coachella’s second day also featured Bon Iver, David Guetta, the Shins and A$AP Rocky. In response to last year’s event selling out — a week after the 2011 lineup was announced — the festival is experimenting with hosting the same artists for two consecutive three-day weekends: April 13-15 and April 20-22. The Black Keys, Swedish House Mafia and Pulp rocked Friday’s chilly opening day . Today’s (April 15) third and final day brings Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg (rumored to contain an appearance by the late Nate Dogg as a hologram ), Florence and the Machine, Justice, Calvin Harris and the reunited At the Drive-In.

By Jocelyn Vena Rihanna Photo: Getty Images Rihanna will not only be taking the stage with Coldplay at the Grammy Awards on February 12 , she’ll also join a number of A-list EDM talent for a charity event set to go down the same day. The singer, along with deadmau5, Calvin Harris and Sebastian Ingrosso of Swedish House Mafia will perform at the House of Blues in Los Angeles, with all proceeds from the show going to the Children’s Orthopaedic Center and an artist’s program at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. Tickets for the charity show go on sale this week for $1000. (More information on ticket sales and the charities is available on its official Live Nation page.) February 12 is shaping up to be quite the busy day for a number of the artists slated to perform at the charity concert. Rihanna is up for a handful of Grammy Awards including Record of the Year for 2010’s Loud. Grammy-nominated deadmau5 is also up for a number of awards, including Best Dance Recording for his album Raise Your Weapon. Meanwhile, Harris, who produced Rih’s chart-topping Talk That Talk single “We Found Love,” will join his collaborator at the House of Blues. ” ‘We Found Love’ is the most successful thing I’ve done ever,” Harris told MTV News recently. “It’s not strictly a song by me, obviously, it’s by Rihanna. She sings it. “It was great to work with her,” Harris continued. “No one could have taken it as far as she did. You can’t escape it here [in America]. I’ve heard it a lot. I’ve heard it probably more times today than I did when I was mixing it, which is a good thing.” Related Artists Rihanna
