David Bowie Is Having Kind Of A Moment Right Now

by 24 mins ago

Although David Bowie Day might have come and gone, the legendary glam-rock singer and totally influential fashion icon just won’t quit. He’s got a brand-new single, an “American Horror Story: Freak Show” homage and even a museum exhibit dedicated to his damn self.

On Sunday (October 12), Bowie premiered his new single, “Sue (or In a Season of Crime),” on BBC Radio 6. The seven-minute prog odyssey is a long way away from the catchy glam-rock hits that shot him up the charts over 40 years ago, but it still features plenty of the singer’s freakish charms. It’ll appear on Bowie’s forthcoming compilation album, Nothing Has Changed, due out November 17.

That’s not all. On Wednesday (October 8), Jessica Lange’s character on “American Horror Story,” Elsa Mars, sang Bowie’s seminal “Life On Mars” in a bizarre stage show, even though this season is set 19 years before the single was released in 1971.

According to the show’s creator, Ryan Murphy, David Bowie was totally cool with his song appearing in the episode, as he identifies as a freak himself.

And in case you missed it, Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art is currently hosting an entire exhibit on the star’s career called “David Bowie Is.” A documentary by the same name based on the collection saw its stateside release at the end of September.

Watch The First 4 Minutes Of ‘The Walking Dead’ Premiere Right Here

by 10 mins ago

AMC has done fans of “The Walking Dead” a total solid, putting the first four minutes of tonight’s Season 5 premiere on the Internet for all to see. Only, it’s almost too stressful to enjoy, and we don’t like how it ends. Hoo boy, are things about to get terrifying.

First, we should warn you, it may be appropriate to hold onto your butts. In this flashback, we see Gareth and Co. trapped in what looks to be the same rail car at Terminus that —- jumping ahead to the present day —- Rick, Daryl, Michonne and everyone else are inside of, prepping for what looks to be a real hootenanny (if you refer to epic battles as such, we mean) with the Termites.

And you know that whole “Are the Terminus folks cannibals or not?” quandary? Yeah, well, that one gets answered pretty quickly as far as we’re concerned, given the context cues and all. Our heads hurt just thinking about what we just witnessed. Yours probably will, too. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

One Direction’s ‘Steal My Girl’ Video: There Will Be Sumo

by 12 mins ago

First Danny DeVito and now a couple of Sumo wrestlers? I literally have no clue what One Direction’s next video for “Steal My Girl” will end up looking like at this point, but I can’t wait.

The “Fireproof” singers teased the upcoming clip for the Four single on Sunday (October 12), Instagramming a series of photos taken on the desert set.

Along with Zayn bumping bellies with a pair of wrestling heavyweights, we’ve got Liam leading a march band and Harry and Niall Narry looking stoic in matching sunglasses. Louis is there, too.

Hey, Liam, whatcha doin’ up there?

by 10 mins ago

Taylor Swift’s not just known for crafting your favorite sassy, infectious pop songs. She’s also got one of the biggest hearts out there, especially for her legions and legions of dedicated fans, a handful of whom were chosen to listen to her upcoming album, 1989, with Taylor herself before its official release. Yeah, we’re jealous, too!

Taylor revealed more details from those “1989 Secret Sessions” during her appearance on the U.K.’s “Graham Norton Show” this past Friday (October 10). “I knew before I finished this album that I was most proud of this album, more than anything I’d done before,” Taylor said about her decision to give back with this exclusive treat. She also revealed that she spent months scouring the internet for the chosen Swiftie few to invite to her homes.

So, how did the listening-party attendees feel about Taylor’s album? Based on the reactions Graham Norton shared, it looks like the LP is going to slay new and old listeners alike. Check out a couple of choice fan quotes below.

50 Cent And Chelsea Handler Take Their Flirting To Social Media

by 6 mins ago

By Andres Tardio

50 Cent and Chelsea Handler have been flirting for years. Don’t believe us? Check the timeline.

The former E! host reignited those rumors on Sunday (October 12) when she posted a photo of a female statue laying on her stomach on Instagram. Her caption? “What 50 cent saw in me.”

50 wasted little time in responding. He Instagrammed the same picture with his own caption: “DANM! this picture reminds me of @chelseahandler crazy ass.lol.”

Gossip has swirled around Chelsea Handler and Curtis Jackson since at least 2009 when Fif appeared on the comic’s now-defunct late-night show, “Chelsea Lately.” At the time, Handler called the G-Unit general “cute,” and he complimented her “pretty eyes.”

Since then, they’ve both denied and played up those rumors several times.

This year, 50 and his reunited G-Unit family joined Wiz Khalifa, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and Jennifer Aniston, among others, as they all bid farewell to Handler’s late-night hosting gig on the “Chelsea Lately” finale.

50 and Chelsea have been busy this year. Handler has been promoting her recent Netflix special, “Uganda Be Kidding Me Live,” while Fif and The Unit have been promoting their latest project, The Beauty Of Independence, and finalizing material for their next release, The Beast Is G-Unit.

‘Walking Dead’ Season Five Premiere: What Will Happen In Terminus?

by 8 mins ago

All aboard the “Walking Dead” train! AMC’s hugely successful (and hugely disgusting) zombie series returns tonight with its first all-new episode since Rick Grimes and his fellow survivors were locked away inside a train car, presumably to be eaten by cannibals masquerading as saviors.

It was a dark ending for a show that knows a thing or two about dark endings. How long until we see some light shining through the world of “The Walking Dead” again? Probably a very long time.

Here’s some of what we’re expecting to see in tonight’s season five premiere:

Lots of Sitting Around Inside of the Train Car

AMC

After all, almost every single series regular is currently trapped in that “A” train. We’re going to spend a meaningful amount of time inside that car, if not quite an entire episode. That’s just how it is.

Lots of Running Around Outside of the Train Car

AMC

This is “The Walking Dead” we’re talking about. We’re dealing with Rick Grimes, Daryl Dixon, and Michonne, among others. These are not the types of people who take captivity lightly. As Rick warned at the end of season four: “They’re f—ing with the wrong people.” Indeed they are. Expect Rick’s backlash against Terminus to begin tonight, almost immediately.

Watch This Kid Go ‘Full Diva’ On Live TV Because YASSS

by 4 mins ago

Ready to have a bit of L-I-F-E breathed into your ho-hum Sunday? Then look no further than this video of a kid going “full diva on live TV.”

We’re not sure why a crowd had congregated for this particular news broadcast (h/t UPROXX), but one thing is certain: This kid’s just gotta dance.

He must know that you only get one shot at making a first impression, so he just went for it. And we respect that. No, we don’t just respect it — we admire and adore it. We wish we had half as much confidence as this little vogueing bundle of joy.

If you need us, we’ll be watching and re-watching this clip all day.

Second Person Tests Positive For Ebola In The U.S.

by 2 mins ago

The fight against the Ebola virus is not over yet as the disease appears to be spreading.

An unidentified health care worker from Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas has tested positive for the Ebola virus after undergoing a preliminary test.

According to a statement released earlier this morning by the Texas Department of State Health Services, the worker previously cared for Thomas Eric Duncan, who died of the virus last Wednesday and was the first person to die of Ebola in the United States.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta will conduct tests to confirm the diagnosis. If confirmed, the worker’s case will be the first of person-to-person transmission in the country.

“We knew a second case could be a reality, and we’ve been preparing for this possibility,” said Dr. David Lakey, commissioner of the Texas Department of State Health Services.

Heath care workers from the hospital administered self-monitoring to track the disease. On Friday, the worker reported a fever and was tested; results were confirmed late Saturday. The CDC announced that the worker was not considered to be “high risk” as they wore a protective gown, gloves, mask and face shield.

Since then, Texas health officials have spoken with the patient and are identifying people who may have been in contact with the ...

Watch Bill Hader Return To ‘SNL’ As Stefon

by 38 mins ago

In his eight seasons as a castmember on “Saturday Night Live,” Bill Hader mastered impressions ranging from Julian Assange to Charlie Sheen, but it was an original character, Stefon, that continuously kept the audience (and himself) laughing.

The October 11 episode of “SNL” not only saw the return of Hader as host for the night, but a return to the “Weekend Update” news desk for Stefon. And yes, the sketch had everything — even those notorious breaks.

New York’s hottest club is Whimsy, according to Stefon. They’ve got congas, MTV’s Dan Cortese (remember “Rock ‘N Jock”?), and even the TV channel at the hotel that’s about the hotel. It’s the kind of place that will make you feel weird the next time you see your parents.

For the dumb folks looking to get murdered, Stefon suggests Jan’s New Backpack, a place filled with asbestos, lupus, Dan Cortese (again), a doorman who always high-fives children of divorce and the “Prozac Dooby Brothers.”

Oh, and if you’ve been wondering what Stefon and Seth Meyers have been up to since they got married, they’re going house-hunting because Stefon is pregnant!

With A Little Help From His Friends

Hader opened the show alongside a monologue-crashing Kristen Wiig (his current “Skeleton Twins” co-star), who provided moral support/peer pressure to get him to sing.

With some coaxing, a reluctant Hader belted out lyrics to the ’80s rock-inspired tune, but the sound of his lower-than-low voice elicited the reaction “With love, yikes.” In popped Harvey Firestein, another victim of Hader’s impressions, ...
