4 Reasons Why Katy Perry Doing The Weather Is Even Better Than It Sounds
Katy Perry is so good at so many things: singing, making amazing videos , being the most charming pop star on the planet. But she can't be great at everything and we think we finally found something she kind of stinks at.
The weather. Specifically, delivering the weather Al Roker-style on a national TV network. That didn't stop her, though, from giving it a shot on Wednesday (March 5) morning when she popped in to Australia's Channel 7's "Sunrise" show to promote her Prismatic tour.
Here are the most adorkable mistakes she made while trying to sort out the difference between Brisbane and Broome:
1. Don't Ever Show Your Face In Perth Again
After calling her special weatherman pointer a "nifty wand," Perry started off the segment by forecasting a few showers in "Karns," while pointing to Perth, which is on the opposite coast. Also, it's "Cairns," Katy, not "Karns," or "Cans."
2. Get Out Of The Way!
If there is one rule of weatherman club it's this: NEVER, EVER stand in front of the map! While trying to find Canberra, (or "Cernaberra" as Katy put it), she blocked most of the continent with her flowery housecoat, eliciting giggles from the crew.
3. It's Called Celsius, Katy
Noticing that it was only going to be 23 degrees in Melbourne, Katy quipped, "23? That's really cold, ya'll!" Um, actually it's almost 75 degrees Fahrenheit, Perry, get it together.
4. Hobart, Hogwarts, Let's Call The Whole Thing Off
Pointing and smiling is a lot harder than it looks. And while Katy has no problem nailing the lyrics to her songs on ...

‘Lindsay’: Biggest Moments From The Trailer For Lohan’s Reality Series
Can Oprah Winfrey stop Lindsay Lohan from being her own worst enemy? A new first look trailer from the upcoming docu-series "Lindsay" says... Well, maybe.
"Lindsay," which premieres March 9 on OWN, is a straightforward window into Lohan's ongoing cycle of substance abuse and self-sabotage, with Oprah herself stepping in to help the actress change her life. With the trailer now online, we're getting our first peek at what's in store when the troubled starlet lets the cameras in.
Lohans Galore
In addition to Lindsay herself, various members of the family — including parents Michael and Dina — will be making an appearance in the series. Dina, who was a reality TV star in her own right on the E! network's "Living Lohan," appears in the trailer looking typically camera-ready.
But it's the relationship between Lindsay and her dad that should make for the most interesting television: a brief clip of the two sharing a meal shows that tensions are still running high between them, with Lindsay not ready to let go of her disappointment in the father who so often failed her.
Self-Aware, Or Still Using?
The death spiral of Lohan's professional life has had many stops along the way: incarceration, DUIs, lost opportunities to work as she gained a reputation for being unreliable and volatile. But addiction is the thread that runs through it all, and it remains to be seen if the latest of the actress's many attempts to get clean and stay sober will be the one that makes the difference.
In the trailer's opening voiceover, Lindsay describes drinking and partying as ...
Read More →Batman Comes To ‘Gotham’: See Who’s Playing Bruce Wayne
At long last, has found its Batman-in-the-making — and the actor certainly has the "Touch."
David Mazouz, the young actor best known for playing the gifted Jake Bohm on Fox's short-lived "Touch," will bring Bruce Wayne to life on "Gotham," Fox's upcoming exploration of the DC Comics universe. The series is said to focus largely on future commissioner James Gordon as a beat detective and Gotham City newbie, while Mazouz's Bruce mourns his parents' recent double-homicide.
On top of Mazouz's casting, Fox has hired a young actress to play Selina "Catwoman" Kyle: Camren Bicondova, a largely unknown teenage actress with an uncanny resemblance to Michelle Pfieffer. On looks alone, you can almost see Bicondova growing up to become the Catwoman of "Batman Returns."
With the young versions of Batman and Catwoman in place, it would appear that all of the major "Gotham" players have been cast. Here's a quick look at the main characters:
1. Ben McKenzie as James Gordon
2. Donal Logue as Harvey Bullock
3. Sean Pertwee as Alfred Pennyworth
4. Jada Pinkett Smith as Fish Mooney
5. Robin Lord Taylor as Oswald Cobblepot
Yep, that "Walking Dead" weirdo is playing the criminal who will eventually become the Penguin. Pretty cool casting, isn't it?
Fox ordered "Gotham" for a full 13-episode season, set to debut at some point in the fall of 2014 or spring of 2015. Between this new show and The CW's "Arrow" and coming "Flash" series, it's an exciting time for DC Comics on the small-screen.

Sure, Matthew McConaughey gave an emotional speech and Ellen DeGegeres broke the Internet with her epic selfie.
But as far as Conan O'Brien is concerned that's all a pile of trash. "Sitting here before me are some of the most prestigious awards an artist can receive: the Oscar, the Golden Globe, the BAFTA, the Screen Actor's Guild Award, the Peabody Award and, of course, the Nobel Peace Prize," explained O'Brien of the startling array of (we assume fake) hardware he assembled on his desk on Tuesday night's broadcast of his TBS late night show.
"People work their entire lives in an attempt to earn just one of these incredible awards. But if you ask me, they're all garbage!" he shouted, as he swept the lot of them off his desk. "Garbage! It's Garbage!"
Why? "There's only one award, one award in the world that truly matters. I'm talking about the MTV Movie Award." It's exactly that kind of enthusiasm for the golden popcorn that earned O'Brien the coveted host slot for the Movie Awards and we couldn't be any happier about it.
O'Brien will bring that hype to the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live stage at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on MTV in celebration of the year's best movies and performances. The 2014 MTV Movie Awards will also feature exclusive sneak previews of the summer's most anticipate movies with never-before seen footage and previews. The nominees will be revealed on March 6 at 7 a.m. ET when nominations go live on MovieAwards.MTV.com.
Oh, and one more thing. Don't worry, Conan said, by April ...

In addition to finally finding out what's going on in Westeros, the "Epic Fan Experience" screening at Barclays will include props, costumes and photos from the show as well as photo ops on the Iron Throne. No spoilers, though, so if you score a ticket, be prepared to check your smart phones or other devices at the door until after the preview.
After a too-long wait, the upcoming season will take on the second half of the third book in author George R. R. Martin's "A Song of Fire and Ice" series, "A Storm of Swords." The recently released 15-minute trailer previewed the addition of the new character Oberyn Martell, the Red Viper of Dome, and we also found out the titles of the first four episodes.

‘Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.’: Inside Coulson’s Magical Discovery
Warning: Frost Giant-sized spoilers ahead!
Tahiti isn't just a magical place — it's a magical acronym.
Seeing is believing, but it's still hard to believe that this blue-hued monster torso is the same "GH" that brought Coulson back to life. Nevertheless, that's what we're led to believe, as Coulson learns that the serum responsible for his resurrection comes from this crazy-looking creature. Whatever serum it produced is now flowing through Skye's veins, as well — and if she's already an 0-8-4, there's no telling what the GH Juice will do to her now.
So, what is this GH thing, anyway? Looking at it, two theories spring to mind: (1) It's an Engineer from "Prometheus," which is ridiculous, but would somehow be less ridiculous than "Prometheus" itself. (2) It's a Frost Giant as seen in the "Thor" movies. It shares the same basic build and color, if not the same tribal markings.
But what would a Frost Giant be doing on Earth, under such high-level lock-and-key? Is it dead, or is it growing? Is this a test-tube Frost Giant, some kind of lab-grown experiment?
Keep in mind that "T.A.H.I.T.I." ends with the introduction of Lorelai, a direct lead-in to next week's Lady Sif episode. "S.H.I.E.L.D." is moving into Asgard ...

Read More →‘Transformers: Age Of Extinction’ Trailer: Watch Now
"Hey, Optimus Prime. Say hi to your mother for me, alright?"
Those are not the words uttered by Mark Wahlberg in the brand-new trailer for unfortunately; just the words we hope wind up in the actual film itself. Instead, the latest look at footage from director Michael Bay's fourth "Transformers" movie highlights another tone entirely — something considerably darker and more action-packed than even the wildest Andy Samberg-fueled fever-dream could cook up.
The new "Transformers" movie casts aside the Shia LaBeouf of yesterday (and not a moment too soon, given the actor's recent public image problems), leaning toward a new corner of the mythology instead. Wahlberg represents the flesh-and-blood side of the cast, playing Cade Yeager, an inventor and single father, trying to protect his daughter Tessa (Nicola Peltz) from her race car driver boyfriend, Shane (Jack Reynor).
Cade's overprotectiveness goes into overdrive with new focus when he's thrust into the middle of the ancient rivalry between Optimus Prime's Autobots and the ruthless Decepticons. Four years have passed since the Battle of Chicago, but the Transformers' impact has left a deep scar on all of mankind — and now, just as that scar has started to heal, it looks like the eternal conflict between Autobots and Decepticons is about to reopen old wounds.
While some fans are divided over Michael Bay's return to the "Transformers" universe, there's one silver lining that just about everyone can agree upon: Finally, at long last, we're getting the Dinobots in a live-action "Transformers" movie. There's simply no way that Grimlock ...
Read More →John Travolta Breaks Silence On Idina Menzel Name-Slaughter
He tried. He really, really tried.
But when John Travolta took the stage at the Academy Awards to introduce Idina Menzel for her performance of the Oscar-winning "Frozen" hit, "Let It Go," the "Hairspray" actor just couldn't seem to get her name right.
In fact, what came out -- "Adele Dazeem" -- wasn't even close to the correct pronunciation. And while in the days since Sunday's show we've all been laughing about it and using the Travolta-fying our own names, John has been pretty torn up about the whole thing.
"I've been beating myself up all day," Travolta said in a statement to E! News on Tuesday (March 4), in his first public response to the slip-up. "Then I thought...What would Idina Menzel say? She'd say, 'Let it go, let it go!' Idina is incredibly talented and I am so happy 'Frozen' took home two Oscars Sunday night!"
We see what you did there.
Menzel has yet to comment on the name-slaughter, but didn't seem the least bit fazed when she performed on Monday Night's "The Tonight Show."
