TWO AND A HALF-MEN Star Angus T. Jones Talks Trash About Show!
(TMZ) TWO AND A HALF-MEN star Angus T. Jones, who plays Jake Harper, son of Alan Harper (played by Jon Cryer), may regret bashing his show after a video documenting the actor pleading with his fans NOT to watch the show leaked on the internet. The actor makes $350k per episode and his claim that the CBS hit show is "filth" is shocking considering the money he's making on the show.
Angus made the comments because the show contradicts his Christian beliefs. The video was made by Forerunner Christian Church in which he tells viewers to stop watching his show.
He says in the video, "Please stop watching it (Two and A Half-Men) and filling your head with filth. " He also adds, "I'm on TWO AND A HALF-MEN and I don't want to be on it."
In one part of the interview, Angus says that he doesn't "want to be contributing to the enemy's (the Devil) plan." He continues, "You cannot be a God-fearing person and be on a television show like that."
CBS and TWO AND A HALF-MEN creator/producer Chuck Lorre, who was the wrath of former 2.5 Men star Charlie Sheen, have not released any statements regarding Angus and the just released video.

Why We Shouldn't Doubt Jessica Simpson Again! Girl Looking Fine After Dropping the Weight!
Ashlee Simpson (left) and a new hot-looking Jessica Simpson (right) at a public appearance last Saturday.
(TMZ) Actress/business entrepreneur/singer Jessica Simpson made good on her promise to lose the weight, after going on a Weight Watchers (WW) program AND the girl is looking fine! She definitely proved many skeptical people (me, included) WRONG when she lost the weight and even though she went on a strict diet regiment with WW.
All told, she lost 60 pounds of weight that she accumulated after the birth of her baby daughter back in late April.
This past weekend, Jessica and sister appeared in public together, days after their parents made their announcement that they were separating.
Goes to show you, we shouldn't doubt Jessica Simpson again. That's for sure!

Gabriel Aubry's Black Eye Shows You Shouldn't Mess with Halle Berry's Main Squeez Olivier Martinez!
Gabriel Autry (above) has a black eye, coming at the hands of Olivier Martinez!
(Radaronline) Canadian model and Baby Father Gabriel Aubry, 36, showed the effects of a Thanksgiving fight he had with ex-girlfriend's current boyfriend/actor Olivier Martinez, sporting a black eye that would make any hard-fought boxer proud. Unfortunately, the model was on the receiving end of a beating that occurred when he and Martinez got into a disagreement and eventual beatdown on Thanksgiving when he dropped their daughter Nahla at the actress' house.
Gabriel and Halle have each been involved in a nasty custody battle for their 4 year-old, so the fight wasn't a surprise at all, given the toxic relationship of her two parents.
Turkey Day got off on an innocent start when Gabriel went to Halle's house to drop off their 4 year-old daughter. Accounts said that Gabriel got into a disagreement with Halle, which later led to a shoving match between the model and the actor. LA investigators are still investigating the fight but from all accounts, the 46 year-old French actor suffered cuts on his hand when he administered a beating on Gabriel. The model was later arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor battery. He posted a $20,000 bond and was given a December 13 court date.
LA social workers are investigating the case and are currently interviewing Halle, Gabriel, and Olivier concerning Nahla's living situation.

Wednesday "HUMP DAY" November 28, 2012
ANGUS T. JONES Apologizes for his 2.5 Men Tirade!
(TMZ) Angus T. Jones, one of the stars of Two and A Half-Men who plays "Jake Harper," released a statement apologizing for his tirade on the popular comedy show in which he called it "filth" and "against his Christian beliefs." He wrote the letter to CBS, 2.5 Men creator/producer Chuck Lorre, Peter Roth, and others at production company Warner Brothers thanking them for the opportunity (to earn $350k smackaroos an episode!) to appear on the show and NOT disrespecting them in anyway for his comments he made a few days ago.
The video in which Angus appears with his spiritual adviser while bashing his own show, shed a bad light on the CBS show which stars Angus, Ashton Kutcher, Jon Cryer, and others and has literally made the 19 year-old incredibly RICH!!!!!!!
TMZ.com posted the apology in which it says, ""I apologize if my remarks reflect me showing indifference to and disrespect of my colleagues and a lack of appreciation of the extraordinary opportunity of which I have been blessed. I never intended that."
He apologizes to everyone including the cast and crew, and says that he never meant to show any indifference or lack of appreciation by his comments.
Meanwhile, Charlie Sheen former star of 2.5 Men and current star of ANGER MANAGEMENT on FX chimed in on the episode that blamed Chuck Lorre for driving Angus crazy! He called the 2.5 Men creator's show "a hive of oppression" and said that being with the man (Chuck) can drive anyone into an "emotional tsunami!"
Losing $350k per episode and untold millions can do this to any person. Heck, most people would be apologizing if it mean $500 per episode in this state of the economy! Unbelievable!

Melissa Rycroft Wins Dancing with the Stars: All-Stars!
Melissa Rycroft along with dance pro Tony Dovolani (above) wins the Mirror Ball Trophy on Dancing with the Stars: All Stars last night!
(Radaronline) Melissa Rycroft and her partner Tony Dovolani won the finale of the 1st ever Dancing With the Stars: All-Stars competition last night, beating out former DWTS champs Shawn Johnson and Kelly Monaco!
The former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader and reality-star of THE BACHELOR, beat out a field that had former DWTS champions and runner-ups to emerge as the winner of the competition, taking home the Mirror Ball after getting the highest score of 28.5 of the night. She managed two perfect scores on Monday to overtake Shawn and Kelly, who were both believed to be the favorites to win the title with Rycroft being the "underdog."
The win for Melissa caps a great year in which she stars in a CMT reality show Melissa and Tye , gave birth to her first child Ava last year, and has been happily married since 2009.
An excited Rycroft said when she handed the trophy that she plans to put it in her "front yard or on her car" for everyone to see!

Michael Jordan Kicked Off A Country Club Golf Course . . . but Not for What You Think?
(NYPOST) Basketball legend Michael Jordan was kicked off a Country Club golf course and it wasn't over gambling, being loud, being obnoxious or even being obscene . . . it was because he wasn't wearing BERMUDA SHORTS! PageSix of the New York Post reported that the Hall of Fame basketball player was kicked off of the La Gorce Country Club in Miami Beach, Florida for wearing PANTS, which is against the rules of the exclusive club.
A spokesperson said that he was allowed the chance to change into Bermuda shorts after an official discovered he was wearing pants on the 12th hole! Jordan refused to interrupt his game and go to the club house to change, and that's when he was promptly kicked out of the club. Ironically, his dismissal from the club came after country club members complained about the violation and the former Chicago Bull being kicked out. Members also said that this wasn't the FIRST TIME that the NBA legend wore cargo pants when he played at the club before.
Whatever the case, La Gorce suffered a major loss.
Kind of ironic that Jordan got kicked out of a club over SHORTS since it was he who is credited with making the baggy shorts in the NBA fashionable.

ALOHA FRIDAY November 30, 2012
NYPD Officer Lawrence DePrimo Becomes Internet Hero for his Random Act of Kindness!
(CNN) A photograph of NYPD officer Lawrence DePrimo giving a homeless man brand new boots on a frigid November night has gone viral. DePrimo said that he was unaware he was being photographed but an Arizona tourist took the image and put it on Facebook and the photo has gotten 2M views from around the world.
DePrimo eventually came forward after the image became a worldwide sensation. The twenty five-year old Police officer, who still lives with his Mom and Dad, said that he just wanted to help. He said that he didn't know the homeless man, who was surprised by DePrimo's kindness and responded by saying "God Bless You and be safe."
With so much negativity around the world, it was nice to hear the efforts of DePrimo, who admitted that his act is one of many among Police officers, who help other people in the city.
Thanks Officer DePrimo for letting us realize that there are some "good people" out there in the world.

LINDSAY LOHAN Becomes a Sympathetic Figure!
(TMZ) With TMZ's reports that Lindsay Lohan, only 26, drinking two liters a day of Vodka and getting into a fight at a New York City nightclub late Wednesday night, the former Disney star is becoming a sympathetic figure in Hollywood. Sources say that the reason Lohan is drinking uncontrollably is because of her dire financial situation and the prospect of going back to jail after her car crash this summer. Surely, the fight at an NYC club didn't help either but its come at a point that the once promising actress is becoming a "danger to herself."
Sure, the paparazzi constantly mocks the former star all the time, but due to her latest arrest and latest news, LILO is becoming a sad figure in Hollywood and someone better save her or else she'll end up like the other celebrities who crashed-and-burned before her.
It doesn't help that Lindsay comes from a dysfunctional family and because they can't save themselves from destructive behavior, so who else is going to save the MEAN GIRLS star?
The paparazzi can only sit-back and watch this trainwreck in progress cause no one is willing to intervene. Sure, LILO has done all this self-destruction by herself, but Hollywood has to do something before it reaches its tragic end.
Hollywood has seen its share of tragic figures from Marilyn Monroe to John Belushi to Elvis Presley to River Phoenix to Chris Farley to Heath Ledger to Whitney Houston. All of them displayed self-destructive behavior and help came too late when they met their end. So, it's not like Hollywood doesn't know how this script with Lindsay Lohan will end?
Of course, LILO won't get help if she doesn't HELP HERSELF. That's true but she's NOT in the right frame of mind to make any decisions for herself at this point.
We're calling Dr. Phil, Dr. Drew (Celebrity Rehab), Oprah or heck . . . Mel Gibson (believe it or not, he helped Britney Spears), or anyone to reach out and help this woman before it is too late!

Chris Brown and Rihanna Back Together Again? (YAWN)
A recent photo released on Twitter of Rihanna hugging Chris Brown (above) during his European concert tour.
(toofab) Well, everyone knew this was coming but we'll mention it anyway that Chris Brown and Rihanna are back together again. This has been kept a "secret" for 2 years now but oh well . . . . After numerous clandestine meetings and sightings of the pair since their breakup in 2009 after his arrest for beating her to a pulp, the two were destined to be together once again . . . unfortunately.
The latest photo released on Twitter of Rihanna hugging a tired Chris Brown during his European tour is enough evidence for the public that the two are back together once again.
It's not like Rihanna hasn't been warned before and she should know what she's getting into AGAIN. The two have a violent past and the pop singer has not shown any remorse for what he did to Rihanna and so . . . . we leave it at that.
Poor ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran. Looks like she was just an "appetizer" all those years while CB was wetting his appetite for the main dish Rihanna since 2009. Sources say that Karrueche is still "hanging on" with the prospect of getting back with Breezy but the odds are against her obviously.
In the meantime, let's hope Rihanna took some self-defense skills over the years in case Chris Brown plans to land a fist on her face once again.

Manti Teo: Punahou, Go Back to Work!
(ESPN) Notre Dame inside linebacker Manti Teo is one of the finalists for the Heisman Trophy along with Collin Klein and Johnny Manziel, and although he's not campaigning to win, he is appearing on camera a lot more often now that his team is No. 1.
Many claim that Teo is really NOT the best College Football defensive player of the year since that award should go to either Georgia's linebacker Jarvis Jones or South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney. However, no player has gotten the exposure like Teo and being the leading tackler (recording 103 tackles and 7 interceptions) on the nation's No. 1 team does help. With that in mind, don't be shocked if Manti Teo becomes the first player from Hawaii and the first primary defensive player to win the award (Note: Charles Woodson of Michigan played cornerback but he also played wide receiver and ran back punts).
Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel is the odds-on favorite to win the Heisman, which will be announced on December 8. Teo is listed as second.
Speaking of exposure, Manti's postgame interview at the L.A. Coliseum after the USC game was striking and shows he still has his eye on football in Hawaii. He praised Kahuku and gave Punahou some sage advice.
The exposure on the football field didn't stop there because the Heisman trophy-candidate was seen at the Notre Dame-Kentucky game last night! He even stopped by the booth and had an interview with Dicky V.

Twilight, Skyfall, and Lincoln Top Weekend Box-Office Leaderboard!
The movie poster for LINCOLN (above). Twilight and SKYFALL get the most publicity but LINCOLN is quietly looking to surpass $100M at the end of its run.
(Box Office mojo) Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2, SKYFALL, and LINCOLN were #1, #2, and #3 on the weekend box-office chart. New films "Killing Them Softly" and "The Collection" failed to make a dent even in the top 5!
Twilight continued to take the top spot at the box office, marking its 3rd time at #1! The film earned a still-impressive $17. 4M, with a 60 percent drop-off at the box-office and is just $1M behind the record-setting Twilight film NEW MOON.
SKYFALL on the other hand came in a not too shabby $17M for second place and is projected to end up as the top Bond movie of all-time with $290M by the end of its run.
In third, Steven Spielberg's LINCOLN finished at $13.5M, with only a 47 percent drop off.
Rounding out the top 5 was the animated film at #4 RISE OF THE GUARDIANS earning $13.5M and at #5 LIFE OF PI which earned a mild $12M. The critically-acclaimed epic film by Ang Lee has earned only $48.3M in its second week and it is highly-unlikely that it will eclipse its $120M budget, even if you add in the overseas box office receipts, by the time it ends it run. FOX hopes that if it does well at the Academy Awards, the film gets another run at the box-office and hopefully sell millions of DVD/Bluray/digital downloads along the way.
As for "Killing Them Softly," the Brad Pitt flick earned a paltry $7M, which is BOMB-status. However, that's not bad considering the film was only made for $15M. By comparison, the horror movie "The Collection" got 10th place, earning a dismal $3.4M.

Kate is Preggers!
Prince Harry and Kate Middleton (above) are expecting! The Royal Family confirmed it!
(TMZ) Kate Middleton has been confirmed by the Royal Family that she is pregnant. Seems that Kate is undergoing a severe case of morning sickness. The baby would be the first for Prince William and Kate.
BTW, the baby would jump to 3rd in the line for the throne, passing Harry! Watch out, Las Vegas!
Latest news has Kate going through her morning sickness and cooped up at a nearby hospital. Hope this sickness passes quickly because the public is waiting for more babies after this. The pair have talked about "making babies" even before they got married in April last year.
This is certainly welcome news for the royal couple, which has been subjected to NOSEY paparazzi, who have taken nude photos of our beloved Kate as of late.

Taylor Swift Moves from Kennedy to One Direction's Harry Styles!
Taylor Swift and One Direction's Harry Styles (above). The two went on a second date just recently at the Central Park Zoo!
(Hollyscoop) Apparently, Country superstar Taylor Swift isn't scared of the recent death-threats by One Direction fans as she was spotted with Harry Styles on a second date at the Central Park Zoo in New York.
The two were photographed by paparazzi but there was no PDA (public display of affection), no hand holding, and no kissing so some fans of Harry may be a bit relieved. FAT CHANCE, he is still with her!
Yep, the 22 year-old Swift recovered nicely from a late summer breakup with Connor Kennedy, 18, and has moved on to Harry, who turned 18 in February. Seems that Connor couldn't take Swift's fast move to get SERIOUS!
No timetable on when this relationship will end but Styles fans hope it ends quickly . . . or else!!!!!

WEDNESDAY "HUMP DAY" December 5, 2012
Jazz Legend Dave Brubeck Dies A day before Birthday!
(TMZ) Jazz pianist legend Dave Brubeck died of heart failure at his Connecticut home while he was on his way to his cardiology appointment, one day before his birthday on December 6. He was 91.
Brubeck is famous for the jazz piece, "Take Five," recorded way back in 1959 as the Dave Brubeck Quartert. He wrote the piece with his buddy saxophonist Paul Desmond. "Take Five" is also from the genre's top-selling album "Time Out."
The jazz pianist would be the second jazz musician to be featured on the cover of Time Magazine back in 1954, following Louis Armstrong, who was featured in 1949. The ever so humble Brubeck was honored by the cover and thought that Duke Ellington was more deserving.

DWTS: Melissa Rycroft Wins Title but her Career is Breaking her Marriage Apart!
(Radaronline) Sources are saying that the marriage of Melissa Rycroft, the former Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader hottie, who recently won the Mirror Ball Trophy from Dancing With the Stars: All-Star competition, is on the rocks because of her thriving career in Hollywood. Melissa is married to her Texas hubby of 3 years, Tye Strickland, and they have a 21 month-old daughter, Ava, but reports are saying the marriage is on the rocks cause the former Bachelorette star wants to stay in L.A. while Tye wants to move back to the Lone Star state.
The couple previously lived in Texas but moved to pursue Melissa's career back in Hollywood. Tye thought it was only going to be temporary but after the DWTS' win, she has been fielding offers for future projects in Tinseltown which means a longer stay in L.A., and the former insurance agent doesn't want that. Sources say that Tye is a "country boy" at heart and doesn't like the glitzy elements of L.A..
There is a marked difference between the two in which he wants to move back to Texas and share their daughter's experiences with his family, while she wants to stay in Hollywood to pursue "her dream."
An insider said that Tye feels "blindsided" by the recent developments and her demands to stay in L.A..
Uh oh, this doesn't sound good for Melissa and Tye.

BOB COSTAS Feels Fallout for Advocating "Gun Control" on Sunday Night Football!
(ABC) Sports commentator Bob Costas is feeling the heat from his "gun control" diatribe on Sunday Night Football, which many viewers felt was "OUT OF PLACE" during halftime of the game between Philadelphia Eagles vs the Dallas Cowboys. Many upset viewers bashed Costas for using a sports event, which was solely for entertainment purposes, as a forum to advocate his opinion on "GUN CONTROL." Although he DID NOT USE THE WORD "GUN CONTROL," the public inferred that Costas was talking about banning guns.
While many have supported Costas for what he said, he has felt a backlash from pro-gun/second amendment supporters!
Others felt that Costas was "out of line" for not waiting until the full investigation of the murder-suicide of Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher and his girlfriend Kassandra Perkins was completed.
The NBC commentator set the record straight on MSNBC with Lawrence O'Donnell when he said that "he doesn't want to ban guns" and advocates "more sensible gun legislation." He said that there was a problem with the "gun culture" of this country but does not believe that there should be a prohibition of guns in America.
Costas said that he didn't like the "readily availability" of guns in America and that he wanted to explain more about that but had to condense his commentary in a span of 90 seconds to talk about the issue. He said that he wished he had more time to explain himself and "flesh out" the issue.
Nevertheless, many viewers believe that the sportscaster had no right to bring politics in a forum that was used solely for entertainment.
NBC has yet to comment on Bob Costas.

Kind of ironic that Lin replaced Douglas when both were on the Knicks and that Douglas may end up replacing Lin in Houston. Whatever the case . . . .

SKYFALL Returns Atop Weekend Box-Office!
SKYFALL starring Daniel Craig (above) returned to top the Weekend box office for December 7-9!
(EW) SKYFALL returned atop the weekend box-office in a grand small way with $11M while the animated film RISE OF THE GUARDIANS took second with $10.5M. The James Bond flick is Sony Pictures' top grosser of all-time, taking in $918M worldwide eclipsing SPIDER MAN 3 which grossed $890M.
Don't worry Sean Connery fans, the Scotsman's 3 films Thunderball, Goldfinger, and You Only Live Twice are still the top Bond films of all-time (when adjusted for inflation). SKYFALL is #4 on the All-time Bond list.
TWILIGHT SAGA: BREAKING DAWN PART 2 fell to 3rd place after being no. 1 3 weeks in a row with $9.2M.
Rounding out the top five, LINCOLN took 4th with $9.1M ($97.3M for 5 weeks) and #5 was Ang Lee's LIFE OF PI which earned $8.3M.

Manny Pacquiao: Not Quitting Yet!
(Haretz) Filipino boxer Manny Pacquiao said that he won't quit despite cries from the public and from his Mother, who fear he might get hurt. He did release a statement that he was planning to rest and that he vowed to be back sometime next year. His promoter Bob Arum is allegedly setting aside April for the Philippine Senator's comeback.
Meanwhile, all of Pacquiao's supporters are still in shock over the 6th round KO, which came at the hands of the now proclaimed "Filipino Assasin" Juan Manuel Marquez! The 39 year-old's Hail Mary hit Manny so hard that the fighter never saw the canvas when he fell face-first.
The Hail Mary was no accident by Marquez and it came from 5 months of non-stop training. As for Pacquiao, his serious training only lasted from late October to early December days before the fight, showing his lack of focus in preparation for the Mexican fighter.
What was Manny Pacquiao doing before his training? Campaigning for himself for Philippine Congress and announcing the candidacy of his wife Jinkee for Vice Governor in south Philippines. Before that, he was either legislating, doing commercials, and living a comfortable and wealthy life in General Santos.
It led promoter Bob Arum to ask, "Manny Pacquiao has to decide whether he is a boxer or he's a politician."
At 33, Manny is still a young guy but not having the skills and speed he had when he was younger. Whatever decision he makes, he has to look in the mirror and focus on either a boxing career or political career or acting/singing career. He needs to choose one.
The Filipino fighter went up against Juan Manuel Marquez, whose only goal was to beat Pacquiao and because boxing is his only livelihood and it may have been his last chance at glory.
Yes, come back, Manny, but only return if you are FOCUSED on boxing.

LeAnn Rimes Finally Breaks Down in An Interview Detailing her Affair with Eddie Cibrian!
Brandi Glanville (left) and LeAnn Rimes (right) with Eddie Cibrian (inset) get along much better now than they did back in 2009. However, LeAnn finally confessed to her affair with Eddie, which Brandi had suspected all along.
(E) Country pop singer LeAnn Rimes broke down in a recent interview with E News in which she finally admitted that she and actor Eddie Cibrian had an affair back in 2009 while both were still married to their respective spouses. At the time, LeAnn was married to Dean Sheremet and Eddie was hitched with Brandi Glanville and their two young boys.
The two met while filming a made-for-television movie and they were caught red-handed at a Los Angeles restaurant surveillance camera getting cozy. The photo leak also coincided with each one separating from their spouses and led to their eventual divorce in 2010.
LeAnn's interview on E News now confirms what Brandi Glanville, who is a cast member of the REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS, had said all-along that her then-husband and the country singer were having an affair that eventually broke up her marriage.
The revelation by LeAnn Rimes coincides with Brandi's previous announcement that she was writing a tell-all book about her divorce from Eddie and third-party LeAnn Rimes. The scathing book will be due out on February 12, 2013.
Brandi, who watched the interview, was elated by the revelation and was thrice as happy when the publisher of her book told her that more copies were in order after LeAnn's confession.
By the way, Dean Sheremet has since re-married to Sarah Silver in 2011. Meanwhile, Brandi is unattached and the only men in her life are her two sons Mason, 9, and Jake, 5.

HUNGER GAMES star Jennifer Lawrence Wins "Most Desirable Woman 2013" By AskMen.com!
(Hollyscoop) Actress Jennifer Lawrence also known as "Katniss" on the HUNGER GAMES was selected as the "Most Desirable Woman" by the readers of AskMen.com! Out of 2.4M readers' votes, Jennifer beat out contenders Mila Kunis, Kate Upton, Rihanna, and Emma Stone for the 2013 title.
Men may have been attracted to Jennifer's "dominating" performance on HUNGER GAMES or her demure, more adult role opposite Bradley Cooper in the just-released film SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK. The title will certainly elevate her from "just some actress" to a "sexy actress" who made her debut in the underrated film WINTER'S BONE (2010).
Keep in mind that she beat this year's winner Sofia Vergara (Modern Family) and some hot and heavy contenders like Megan Fox, Kim Kardashian, Angelina Jolie-Pitt, Emmanuel Chirique (Entourage, and winner back in 2010), and Blake Livelyin 2011.
By the way, Jennifer Lawrence and crew are already filming the sequel to HUNGER GAMES with HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE, which is due out November 13, 2013.

THE VOICE: Trevin Hunte Eliminated, Leaving Cassadee Pope, Nicholas David, and Terry McDermott Left Standing!
THE VOICE: (from left to right) Terry McDermott, Cassadee Pope, THE VOICE host Carson Daley, Nicholas David, and Trevin Hunte.
(Rolling Stone) On THE VOICE, Trevin Hunte, the 20 year-old guy with the pipes, was sent packing, leaving Cassadee Pope, Nicholas David, and Terry McDermott left as the top 3 finalists!
There is no doubt that Trevin had a rough journey up until his time on THE VOICE and his voice was certainly much better than the 3 finalists but he may have lacked something that caused voters NOT to vote for him. Cassadee, Nicholas, and Terry are good singers but their voices are not at all impressive like Trevin's.
Whatever the case, the voters picked this trifecta and that's what THE VOICE will roll with come next week.
Will Cassadee, Nicholas, and Terry be able to become the show's first titleholder to actually make it on the music scene? That's what the people at THE VOICE hope, since previous winners Javier Colon and Jermaine Paul haven't exactly burned up the music charts like their fellow musicians at American Idol and X Factor.

HUNGER GAMES star Jennifer Lawrence Wins "Most Desirable Woman 2013" By AskMen.com!
(Hollyscoop) Actress Jennifer Lawrence also known as "Katniss" on the HUNGER GAMES was selected as the "Most Desirable Woman" by the readers of AskMen.com! Out of 2.4M readers' votes, Jennifer beat out contenders Mila Kunis, Kate Upton, Rihanna, and Emma Stone for the 2013 title.
Men may have been attracted to Jennifer's "dominating" performance on HUNGER GAMES or her demure, more adult role opposite Bradley Cooper in the just-released film SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK. The title will certainly elevate her from "just some actress" to a "sexy actress" who made her debut in the underrated film WINTER'S BONE (2010).
Keep in mind that she beat this year's winner Sofia Vergara (Modern Family) and some hot and heavy contenders like Megan Fox, Kim Kardashian, Angelina Jolie-Pitt, Emmanuel Chirique (Entourage, and winner back in 2010), and Blake Livelyin 2011.
By the way, Jennifer Lawrence and crew are already filming the sequel to HUNGER GAMES with HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE, which is due out November 13, 2013.

THE VOICE: Trevin Hunte Eliminated, Leaving Cassadee Pope, Nicholas David, and Terry McDermott Left Standing!
THE VOICE: (from left to right) Terry McDermott, Cassadee Pope, THE VOICE host Carson Daley, Nicholas David, and Trevin Hunte.
(Rolling Stone) On THE VOICE, Trevin Hunte, the 20 year-old guy with the pipes, was sent packing, leaving Cassadee Pope, Nicholas David, and Terry McDermott left as the top 3 finalists!
There is no doubt that Trevin had a rough journey up until his time on THE VOICE and his voice was certainly much better than the 3 finalists but he may have lacked something that caused voters NOT to vote for him. Cassadee, Nicholas, and Terry are good singers but their voices are not at all impressive like Trevin's.
Whatever the case, the voters picked this trifecta and that's what THE VOICE will roll with come next week.
Will Cassadee, Nicholas, and Terry be able to become the show's first titleholder to actually make it on the music scene? That's what the people at THE VOICE hope, since previous winners Javier Colon and Jermaine Paul haven't exactly burned up the music charts like their fellow musicians at American Idol and X Factor.
