Showtime just released the 3rd installment of Fight Camp 360° – Pacquiao vs. Mosley. In case you missed the first two episodes, you can also catch them here and here . After the jump, Scott Christ of BadLeftHook gives his thoughts on the Fight Camp series. Personally, I’ve felt the show has had some strong moments, but overall has simply fallen a bit short of my expectations. It’s still a much-appreciated… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : Bloody Elbow Discovery Date : 01/05/2011 22:34 Number of articles : 2
We tend to talk about the victims of the Shoah in the context of the entire community of Six Million. But the people who died in the Holocaust were not named “Six Million.” Each one of them was an individual. Among those slaughtered by the Nazi’s were mothers worrying about their childrens’ homework, young girls with crushes on young boys, young boys who cared more about soccer than young girls.

Duo play up hit song’s intergalactic theme with laser-heavy performance. By Adam Graham Katy Perry performs on “American Idol” Thursday Photo: FOX Katy Perry transported “E.T.” to the “American Idol” stage Thursday (April 21) and even brought a special guest along with her: Kanye West. The two reprised their recent #1 hit on the “Idol” stage in a pre-taped appearance during the “Idol” results show. The performance kicked off with Kanye’s opening verse piped in via music video, so it was a surprise when the Coachella headliner appeared onstage with Perry later in the song. Perry was carried on to the stage, arms outstretched, by three dancers dressed in alien getups, who hoisted Russell Brand’s better half high above their heads. Perry was decked out in a white, form-fitting bodysuit tricked out with pink LED lights and a long white cape. She wore some sort of futuristic space crown atop her head, making her look like the queen of a far-off pop planet. Green lasers crisscrossed the darkened “Idol” stage as Perry was placed into a throne-like cage, which was carted across the stage by her team of a half-dozen alien dancers. West took the stage in a leather coat accented with a fur overlay and exercised self-censorship on his verse’s “alien sex” line. West and Perry faced off at center stage, moving toward and away from each other to play up the tension between them. In the song’s closing moments, Perry softly caressed West’s cheek before retreating back to her throne, where the lights dimmed and her suit lit up with blinking, zigzagging lights. Perry and West both have a history with “American Idol.” Perry chipped in as a guest judge during the early rounds in season nine, at one point threatening to throw a Coke in Kara DioGuardi’s face, and performed “Waking Up in Vegas” — in an Elvis jumpsuit, no less — on the show during season eight. Earlier that same season, West took to the “Idol” stage to perform “Heartless,” from his 808s and Heartbreak LP, which would later be transformed into a winning performance by that season’s champ, Kris Allen .

Haley Reinhart and Jacob Lusk also land in the bottom three. By Gil Kaufman Stefano Langone on “American Idol” Photo: FOX Wednesday night’s “Music of the 21st Century” wasn’t kind to most of the “American Idol” contestants, but even with a few missteps, host Ryan Seacrest revealed on Thursday’s (April 21) results show that more than 52 million votes were cast for the top seven. After an unrelenting march of early female departures, the remaining two ladies were safe for a second week, though Haley Reinhart did land in the bottom three again, if only for a moment before behind ushered back to safety. That left often-on-the-brink wild card Stefano Langone and Jacob Lusk sweating out their fate by hour’s end. The fourth time, alas, was not a charm for Langone, as his luck finally ran out and Lusk lived to sing another day. Looking like his usual cocky self, Langone smiled and seemed happily resigned to his fate as he watched his highlights package. “It started my career and … you can’t put a price on that,” he said in response to Seacrest’s question about how the show had changed Stefano’s life. He then happily sang Stevie Wonder’s “Lately” one more time, giving the audience another taste of his cruise-ship talents as rocker James Durbin openly wept at the sight of his pal grabbing the mic for the last time. In fact, Durbin couldn’t control his emotions and ran out to bear-hug and spin Langone around as he finished the song before the car-crash survivor was enveloped in a group hug. Earlier in the night, the first two to get the results were Lusk and Casey Abrams, with Seacrest still talking about the spontaneous kiss Casey sprang on judge Jennifer Lopez the night before. Even after the return of his scary-face singing on Maroon 5’s “Harder to Breathe,” Abrams was safe, while Lusk was back in the bottom three after failing to convince viewers with his cover of hero Luther Vandross’ “Dance With my Father.” When Seacrest asked Lauren Alaina, Durbin and Langone to take the long walk, it was no surprise that Langone was back in the bottom three after his tepid take on Ne-Yo’s “Closer,” which meant Alaina and Durbin were safe. And it seemed pretty obvious when Scotty McCreery and Reinhart were the last two to get the news that front-runner McCreery would likely be safe, and he was, meaning once again Reinhart was facing elimination after her good notices for Adele’s “Rolling in the Deep.” She wasn’t down long, though, as Seacrest ushered her to safety just moments later. Earlier in the night, Lauren, Haley, Stefano and Jacob sang a version of Train’s “Hey, Soul Sister” to open the show that managed to make the fluffy pop confection even frothier. That was followed by Casey, Scotty and James singing a “Glee”-ky version of Coldplay’s “Viva la Vida,” during which a self-assured Durbin stole the show coming off like the seasoned showman next to a pair of flat amateurs with shaky stage presence. The show also found season-seven winner David Cook coming home to sing his new single, the midtempo rocker “The Last Goodbye,” and Katy Perry taking the stage in a glowing white space suit to sing her hit alien love song “E.T.” with a surprise cameo from fur-decked collaborator Kanye West. Next week, the top six take on the catalog of 1970s pop icon Carole King on Wednesday night and Bruno Mars drops in to perform on Thursday’s elimination show.

Here are some pictures of a pregnant Alba…What a fucking waste. Maybe I’m just saying that cuz I’m a firm believer that pregnancy isn’t hot and that it kills bodies, careers and vaginas…… Maybe I’m just saying that cuz I don’t realize how naked she is gonna be getting in future roles to stay relevant and to get paid…. Maybe I’m just saying that cuz I firmly believe in abortion as a form of contraceptive…third trimester if escape route is needed…. Maybe I’m just saying that cuz these aren’t pics of her in a bikini….
I’d like to take this short bit of time out of my day to recognize Kylie Minogue’s breast and the heroic battle it went on, fighing cancer breast tissue to breast tissue, a story of meeting adversity and overcoming all odds, coming out alive, the Survival tit….I’d love to option the movie and give James Franco the role of the nipple, since he’s good at the hero shit after the whole 127 hour shit…. assuming this is her real tit and not a breast cancer survivor implant, in which case I take it all back….but will still post the pics…cuz staring at tit is staring at tit…and that’s good enough for me…

‘The Conspirator’ actor critical of the polarizing effects of the controversy over where the president was born. By Eric Ditzian Kevin Kline Photo: Stephen Lovekin/ Getty Chatter about where President Obama was born is suddenly back in the headlines, echoing through the halls of Congress and the newsrooms of cable channels. Earlier this year, Republican House Speaker John Boehner said it wasn’t his responsibility to tell Americans what to think about the so-called “birther” controversy that posits that the president isn’t a natural-born citizen of the United States. And Donald Trump has been telling anyone who will listen that he thinks Obama is hiding something about the origins of his birth and might have been born in Kenya. All this political hot air has gotten under the skin of Kevin Kline, who stars in “The Conspirator” — a cinematic retelling of an actual conspiracy, this one surrounding the assassination of Abraham Lincoln. “It’s ludicrous. It’s embarrassing,” the veteran actor told MTV News. “This country is so polarized and our leaders in Washington are so polarized. How can the nation come together when the paradigm that is presented to us — our models, the men that we’re meant to look up to — are playing such a ridiculous competition? “When the Speaker of the House says, ‘I’m not saying that I think Obama is not an American citizen, but I can’t tell others’ — that is craven and petty,” Kline added. “It’s all about spin and ‘let’s keep the polarization because we want to be in office in 2012.’ What about the good of the people?” Putting the good of the people and the health of the country ahead of short-term political gamesmanship is at the core of “The Conspirator,” the latest directorial effort from Robert Redford. Kline plays Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, who pushes for a military tribunal — rather than a civilian trial — to try a suspect in the Lincoln assassination conspiracy. The allusions to the country’s post-9/11 treatment of detainees is impossible to ignore, all the more so because much of Stanton’s dialogue feels like it could have been uttered by a Bush administration official just a few years ago. Now, like then, what gets lost in the rush to convict and the attempt to heal emotional wounds, Kline said, is “our common humanity.” What we’re left with is two sides mindlessly butting heads. “North against South, Republican against Democrat,” he added. “Blue against Red, my high school against your high school. “We’re all subject to the time we live in, and in moments of stress and chaos — at the end of the Civil War or post-9/11 — people are not always at their most rational or their most just or their most evenhanded,” Kline maintained. “That’s why we have things in place, like our judicial system, like our Constitution. We need those rules and strictures because we are human.” What do you think about the Obama “birther” controversy and Kline’s opinions about it? Share your thoughts in the comments.
Plus: Wednesday’s ‘RapFix Live’ guest Waka Flocka Flame drops new tape featuring Gucci Mane, in Mixtape Daily. By Alvin Blanco, with additional reporting by Rahman Dukes Fabolous Photo: Jonathan Leibson/ WireImage Don’t Sleep: Other Notables Mixtape : The S.O.U.L. Tape Starring : Fabolous Essential Info : Fabolous has always had a knack for boosting R&B songs with his slick verses. Check the discography: Jamie Foxx’s “She Got Her Own,” Lil Mo’s “Superwoman, Part II,” Trey Songz’s “Say Aah” — the list goes on. So the Bed-Stuy rapper new mixtape inspired by soul music — The S.O.U.L. Tape — is long overdue. Fab revealed the mixtape’s title and cover art on Monday. According to one of his Twitter posts, The S.O.U.L. Tape will be out April 21, Fabolous’ last mixtape was 2010’s There Is No Competition 2, which spawned his Ryan Leslie-produced hit “You Be Killin’ Em.” The S.O.U.L. Tape was originally slated for a February release, and its title was chosen via a makeshift Twitter poll. “I did the poll to get people interactive with it and see what names they would come up with,” Fab told XXLMag.com in late January. “I’m doing it over all old soul-sampled beats, so I wanted to keep the word ‘soul’ within the title. A lot of people picked Soul Survivor or really attached it to There Is No Competition because they are already familiar with that and that’s one of the mixtape monikers for me. But I wanted to keep it separate from There Is No Competition, even though that name is winning [in the poll]. I might actually go with the third option which is The S.O.U.L. Tape. ” During NBA All-Star Weekend, Ne-Yo told MTV News that he and Fabolous were working on a joint hip-hop and R&B project in the mold of R. Kelly’s and Jay-Z’s Best of Both Worlds album. Fabolous’ next proper album, Loso’s Way 2, is due later this year. Mixtape : Benjamin Flocka Starring : Waka Flocka Flame with DJ Love Dinero and DJ Teknik Essential Info : Waka Flocka isn’t letting his partner-in-rhyme Gucci Mane’s trouble with the law slow down his hustle. The Atlanta trap rapper drops a mixtape jam-packed with local rap clientele (Tity Boi, Rocko), his Brick Squad Monopoly team (Wooh Da Kid, Frenchie, YG Hootie, P Smurf and Bo Deal) and, of course, Gucci.
