As you might have read in Tonight in Rock in LA New Edition is performing tonight at the Gibson Amphitheater. Seriously they are. The same guys who gave us "Candy Girl" as little boys nearly 25 years ago are not only still together as a group but people are still paying their hard earned money ($79.75) to watch them perform. One fan is looking to go to show with three of their friends but......

El Segundo's DirecTV is trying to sell us on their better picture through High Definition equipment (and extra monthly service fees, natch) by making us want to see every hair in Burt Reynolds' chest? (Full screen image here) Thank you, but maybe HD is too accurate. Maybe we don't even need television anymore. Maybe we should go back to sitting around the fire and telling tall tales about giants and blue oxes. Although it's......

Tony Plana of Three Amigos “Jefe” fame will be gracing the small screen this evening as the father of the lovely America Ferrera in “Ugly Betty.” ABC’s new addition to the oh-so-coveted Thursday, 8:00pm time slot is an American re-telling of the insanely popular Colombian telenovela, “Betty La Fea.” “Ugly Betty” was born of a Salma Hayek/Touchstone......

KABC has wasted no time in getting the awkward questions, stammered remarks, and best wishes to everyone coming down the red carpet. So far we've already heard them refer to Ben Stiller as "studly", and Naomi Watt's very current gown as "vintage". It's almost too painful to watch, but you know we'll keep doing it. Our highlight so far has been hearing Paul Giamatti say, in reponse to the interviewer asking if he'd ever......

While its cool that locals like Alberto Gonzalez, Arturo Moreno, George Lopez, Jorge Ramos, Pablo Alvarado, Mario Molina, Salma Hayek and our mayor make up a third of Time's Top 25 Hispanics in America, we're more interested in some of the quirky information in their poll. For example, Latino is the preferred descriptor in California while the rest of the country seems to prefer Hispanic. As if providing supplemental reading to the article, the......

The New York Post reports on a star-studded party at The Argyle over the weekend that featured the likes of Orlando Bloom, Cristina Ricci, and Drew Barrymore among others. The lede, however, is about Anna Wintour to which our immediate response was, "Who the hell is Anna Wintour?" Oh, she's the editor of American Vogue. We read on to see that she was throwing a party for Maria Mario Testino to which our immediate......

If you want Oscars coverage, Gothamist and Chicagoist blogged the shows and Tony Pierce has a transcript of the political portion of Chris Rock's monologue (which we missed while we were in traffic going to an Oscar party). Based on the transcript, we're bummed we didn't see it because that was pretty funny. Our only Oscar thoughts come from the party. We hollered for Jay-Z and Beyonce; we decided Hillary Swank's dress was the......

This weekend sees the opening of at least four new movies hitting theaters all across the Southland, and in surveying them LAist can't help but think how Angelenos could experience the same events in said movies around Los Angeles without ever having to pay a cent. After The Sunset, stars Pierce Brosnan as a thief who, along with his girlfriend Salma Hayek, tries their best to take part in illegal activities and avoid getting caught......
