The biggest and most memorable event of 1963 was the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, its 50th anniversary will be marked on November 22. The civil rights movement was in full swing as Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his "I have a dream" speech and the Vietnam conflict had begun. Gas was 29 cents a gallon and the average cost for a new home was $12,560.

Also that year, the Beatles released their first album 'Please Please Me.' Notable films released in 1963 were The Great Escape, From Russia with Love, The Birds, Cleopatra and The Pink Panther. Popular TV shows included, The A...

Every Jan. 1, I heave a sigh of relief because I not only made it through another year and survived the frenzied stress of the holiday season but also because mid-season television shows will be unveiled. Like Christmas presents from an adoring aunt, mid-season shows can be just what you need or exactly what you don't.

Check out five new shows you may or may not want to check out:

The Firm (NBC)

NBC took John Grisham’s best-selling novel and big screen hit, “The Firm,” and continued the story in the spin-off of the same name. It follows Mitch McDeere, the Memphis lawyer who brought ...

This weekend, Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds will add their names to the long and distinguished list of actors who have tackled the “body swap” movie. In “The Change-Up,” Bateman and Reynolds play friends with drastically different lifestyles: Bateman is the devoted husband and father, Reynolds is the philandering playboy. After a night of drinking, the two wake up in each other’s bodies, something neither of them really wanted.

Body swap movies have been around for a long time and are usually quite entertaining, if formulaic and predictable. Here’s our list of the Top Ten Body Swap Movi...

This year, Mardi Gras ends on “Fat Tuesday”, March 8th and many people in New Orleans will be celebrating by drinking mass amounts of Hurricanes, throwing beads off of balconies in the French Quarter, watching the parade down Bourbon Street and of course, flashing their ta-tas. Here are a few celebrities we would love to party with in the Big Easy.

Former Playboy Platemate, Kendra Wilkinson showed us on The Girls Next Door that she is always down to have a good time. Even after she married Hank Baskett and had baby Hank, she still enjoys a good night out complete with dancing on a stripp...

CBS has ordered two comedy pilots, including an untitled project starring Saturday Night Live alum Rob Schneider.

Rob Schneider returning to TV with CBS sitcom?

Schneider will co-write, produce and star in the new project, which is based on his own life. The pilot centers on a lonely bachelor who marries into a large, tight-knit Mexican-American family. Fellow SNL alum Lew Morton co-wrote the script, and will also executive-produce alongside Schneider and Two and a Half Men's Eric and Kim Tannenbaum.

The project marks Schneider's first series gig since ...

This weekend the comedy film Grown Ups premieres starring four of the most currently well known Saturday Night Live alumni: Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, David Spade, and Rob Schneider. Kevin James, a beloved comedian from TV land, also stars with them. The film is about five men who were best friends as children and reunite after 30 years to catch up and learn about how they've all become adults. None of these actors are particularly known for being grown ups themselves, so it will be interesting to see how the movie goes. Here's a look at the main actors, specifically the SNL survivors, and w...

One of my greatest fears has been confirmed by seeing Adam Sandler’s “Grown Ups.” My favorite cast of “Saturday Night Live” from the 90s is starting to lapse into Eddie Murphy syndrome: they have no problem with making crappy family comedies just to cash paychecks.

Watching this poor excuse for something funny made me embarrassed for them. I expected a few lowbrow laughs from these folks who capitalized it after their stint on “SNL.” I hoped perhaps though that these seasoned comedians had something better up their sleeves.

“Grown Ups” stars Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider, Kev...

Salma Hayek looked seductive in a busty white dress with red heels when she left her N.Y.C. hotel yesterday to attend the premiere of her film "Grown Ups."

In the film, five former basketball teammates gather 30 years after graduating from high school at the lake house where they celebrated their biggest victory to mourn the passing of their late coach.

Over the course of the Fourth of July weekend, the five friends realize that just because they've all grown up and started families doesn't mean that they've lost that old spark.

Salma Hayek nearly busted out of her black leather vest after leaving her hotel to head to the "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon" show in New York City yesterday.

The Mexican actress recently talked about her favorite snacks, which are a little creepy.

She explained, "We eat bugs, Mexicans. Look, I'm salivating. They're delicious. These little ants fried are amazing - with a little guacamole. And the worms... there are many different recipes for those. The little grasshoppers have a smoky flavor to them. It's the way they cook them, and it's really good."

Salma also stopped by the "Late Show...

I saw two films from last week’s line up: “Toy Story 3” and “Jonah Hex.” As expected “Toy Story 3” was absolutely amazing. Pixar continues to surprise me by making entertaining films that are both funny and poignant at the same time. I’m always impressed by their ability to create a story that appeals to people of all ages.

The latest installment in the franchise has Woody, Buzz, and the gang struggling to figure out what to do now that Andy is leaving for college. When they are accidentally donated to a local day care center, the pals plan an escape back to their owner. On the way th...

Salma Hayek appeared at Christie's Green Auction: A Bid to Save the Earth last week wearing an unusual pair of black and white Balenciaga platform boots. Money certainly doesn't buy taste. Despite the high price tag, we think they're ugly.

Salma stars in the upcoming film "Grown Ups" alongside Adam Sandler, Kevin James, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider and David Spade. In the film, five former basketball teammates gather at the lake house where they celebrated their biggest victory to mourn the passing of their late coach. The friends realize that just because they've all grown up and started fa...

Being a good Hollywood wife requires a lot of strength, trust and discipline - especially when the wife is a non-celebrity. Next to every good man, there's a good women

who will stand by her husband through his vigorous film schedule, premieres and press tours.

Check out a few Hollywood wives that although we hardly know them, we highly respect them!

Kevin James' wife Steffiana de la Cruz was a model when she met Kevin on a blind date almost ten years ago. The gorgeous Filipino and the pudgy funnyman married a few years later and now have two children. Although Steffiana has made a f...

The much anticipated new movie 17 Again, starring Zac Efron, hit theaters last Friday and achieved the number one spot at the box office over the weekend. But how "new" is the movie? The plot may be something we've seen before, as a 37-year-old who is unhappy with his life goes back to being 17 so he can relive his glory days. Things aren't exactly easy for him, especially since the trends have changed, he has to make all new friends, and he is in high school with his children. While the story is slightly different from other body-swapping movies, the general concept is the same. Here ...

I am a Saturday Night Live junkie - so much so that at times I have trouble hiding how big of a fan when that little thing called professionalism may be at stake. It was so apparent in the interview I conducted with current featured player Bobby Moynihan - a self-described "SNL" nerd himself - that he casually mentioned the prospect of me attending a show.

Now I could tell Bobby was a really nice guy, but I thought he was just trying to be polite. I was pleasantly surprised (read: screamed like a 12 year old girl!) when a week later he followed up on that invitation and asked if I wan...

Rob Schneider has never been one to back away from controversy and as we discussed his new film Big Stan -- released on DVD this week -- this became all the more apparent as this interview went along. Rob is very candid about what he thinks of a fellow Saturday Night Live alumnus and expresses his love for Roger Ebert, a man he once engaged in a very public dispute.

Mike: So, how was the transition to directing?

Rob: Not a big transition because I always felt I had a hand in directing all my movies. So, I really knew what I wanted and it took so many months to finally get the m...

SLAM= Verb Slang: To Criticize harshly; censure forcefully. Noun= A harsh or devastating criticism. Since the beginning of show business, in the celebrity news world actors and musicians have SLAMMED rumors, gossip, hearsay and chitchat as well as other unconfirmed reports.

However, the most interesting slams are when one star decides to MINGS from the past year:

With the holiday season upon us in full force, we thought it would be totally inappropriate if we came up with this list of things in the entertainment world that totally annoy us, repulse us, bother us, and that we just plain can't stand. Yeah, "hate" is a really strong word so we aren't going to use that any further than just hyperbole for our headline here.

But seriously, we get tired of hearing about the celebs, despise these films and cannot stand either the music or image of the bands and musicians listed below. Be sure to add your comments at let us know who you can't stand at ...

Recent photos snapped on the set of the 2009 Demi Moore/David Duchovny film "The Joneses" features some reality stars. These photos show two very big reality television personalities playing even bigger versions of themselves to match the upgrade in screen size: Kim Zolciak and Sheree Whitfield from Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Atlanta."

"The Joneses" is about a family who moves into a prestigious community only to peddle very specific products. They are an affluent, powerful, popular family, so everyone else wants to follow their lead and "keep up with the Joneses," hence the titl...

Funnyman Rob Schneider has pulled the plug on his hilarious Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigalo movies, insisting there won't be a third film. The comic played the unlikely gigolo in two movies, but now insists the franchise is "done."

He tells website MovieHole.net, "(I was) chasing a movie to chase a hit (with the first sequel)... It worked before, so we thought the sequel might work. If you're lucky to capture a little bit of magic it's like capturing lightning in a jug. To try and recapture that is foolish. That to me, artistically and financially - the studio made, like, a behemoth amount ...

First dates are always awkward. Between not knowing what to say, fumbling with the check when it arrives at the table, or wondering whether there will be a kiss at the end of the night, these situations are ones people can't wait to overcome. Sometimes first dates can be disastrous from the start, and you hope to God you never see the other person again, that is if you don't die of utter embarrassment right there on the spot.

Hollywood loves to over emphasize situations and showcase things that probably would never happen in real life; at least you hope they'll never happen to you! He...

(HollywoodChicago.com) – In the relatively anemic anthology of recent Adam Sandler flops, “You Don’t Mess with the Zohan” hangs above with comedic charm and a nonsensically amusing plotline. The story is divisively intermingled with racial and ethnic sensitivities between the Israelis and Palestinians.

At first, it even feels like a scribe sat down for a few weeks, slammed back a few brewskies and toked daily on the good ganja while attempting to ink a forcefully novel plot.

In You Don't Mess with the Zohan, Emmanuelle Chriqui stars as Dalia: a Palestinian immigrant to New York an...

Paul McCartney's estranged wife Heather Mills faced a heckling crowd as she was introduced as a judge on the Miss USA 2008 pageant to a loud chorus of boos.

The former glamour model made her first public appearance since her $50 million divorce settlement from the former Beatle last month at the live TV contest which was held in Las Vegas on Friday night.

And the audience at the Planet Hollywood Hotel, on the city's famous strip, gave Mills a frosty reception, greeting her with boos and jeers as she took to the stage with hosts Donny and Marie Osmond.

But Mills insists she...

NBC, Donald Trump and Paula M. Shugart, President, Miss Universe Organization, today announced the celebrity judges for the "2008 Miss USA Pageant" on NBC on Friday, April 11 (9-11 p.m. ET).

The judges are: Heather Mills, contestant on season four of "Dancing With the Stars"; Rob Schneider; Joey Fatone, host of "The Singing Bee"; Kristian Alfonso, entrepreneur and star of NBC's "Days of our Lives"; Olympic gold-medal swimmer Amanda Beard; Christian Siriano, this season's winner of Bravo's hit show "Project Runway"; San Diego Chargers linebacker Shawne "Lights Out" Merriman; celebrity h...

Movies are awesome. Sometimes, however, a movie isn't awesome. Sometimes it should never have been made, and you shouldn't go see it (because it's a waste of money or you just want to protest). These movies have a high suckitude value, and this should serve as a warning to you all. If you still go and see them, that's your problem. The "Suck Scale" runs from 1-5, with 5 being amazingly bad.

Rob Schneider has launched a scathing attack on Australian actor Michael Caton, branding him "bitter." In a letter to an Australian newspaper, Schneider rejected claims made by Caton that his 2004 movie Strange Bedfellows was copied by the makers of the recently released I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry.

Schneider writes, "It is true that you gave me a DVD copy of 'Strange Bedfellows' but I must confess I've never watched it, as it is not on the same format as I have and it makes quite a nice drinks coaster for my 'Victoria's Bitters (sic)'.

"I know you recently made an early...

American comedian Rob Schneider has brushed off criticizm from Dina Lohan over his TV portrayal of her troubled daughter Lindsay, branding her a "crummy" mummy. Lindsay was due to appear on The Tonight Show just hours after she was detained by police for DUI last Tuesday night. Schneider stood in, dressed as the actress, and subsequently became the target of an email rant from Dina.

In her missive to Access Hollywood, Dina wrote, "We are disappointed... (host Jay Leno) chose to allow a guest to make light of a very serious situation concerning Lindsay. This is a very personal and priv...

Lindsay's new movie I Know Who Killed Me hits theaters today, but that's not what all the recent Li-Lo talk has been about this week. Apparently the young star has fallen off the wagon again and gotten herself into more trouble.

Early Tuesday morning Lindsay was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving and possession of cocaine. She had recently finished a rehab stint at the Promises rehab center, the same place Britney Spears spent her rehab time. And if it's any indica...
