While Puerto Rico gets much of the shine, thanks in no small part to its historic role in cultivating reggaetón’s roots as well as the contemporary exploits of one Bad Bunny, Colombia effectively serves as Latin music’s modern epicenter. Of the finite number of top tier Spanish-language artists active today, three boast origins in Medellín, the country’s second-largest city — including J Balvin and Karol G, who’ve become power players on the global pop stage largely by way of high-profile bilingual collaborations with the likes of Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj.

Singer Duffy has reportedly penned an open letter to Netflix CEO Reed Hastings, criticizing the platform for its "irresponsible" decision to stream the controversial film 365 Days.

Duffy — who recently opened up about her own experience being drugged, kidnapped and raped — says the film, which she claims Netflix bills as an "erotic drama," "glamorizes the brutal reality of sex trafficking, kidnapping and rape."

The plot of the Polish film, which is regularly in Netflix's top 10 list of most viewed content on its plaform in the U.S. and has a 0 percent rating ...

“A Better Tomorrow”, as well as spearheading the heroic bloodshed genre had the side effect of making the triad lifestyle appear more glamourous than it really was. In an industry where imitation is the (in)sincerest form of flattery, box office hits lead to copycats and director Taylor Wong teamed with Chow Yun-fat to make two of his better works in “Rich and Famous” and “Tragic Hero”. In 1989, their third collaboration was released in “Triads: The Inside Story”, which could not have been further removed from the other movies and purported to show a more realistic side to triad life.

Uncle Kwan (Tien Feng) is ambushed and killed leading to his son Lee Man-ho (Chow Yun-fat) to reluctantly return from the United States to head the Hung Hing triad society. His inexperience and lack of understanding of triad ways becomes increasingly exposed, as other gangs seek to...

When Nelson George sat down to write about the state of R&b for The Village Voice in the late Eighties, two super-producers were frequently on his mind: Teddy Riley, who helped invent a vicious new fusion called New Jack Swing in New York City, and his rival Babyface, a melodic mastermind based at the time in Los Angeles (but about to decamp to Atlanta).

George was writing from New York, and he was initially high on Riley, a hometown hero, but lukewarm on Babyface’s “computer-chip production.” In 1989, however,...

Exclusive: Looking certain to spend a lot longer behind bars, Tiger King star Joe Exotic has been hit with two big losses in his $89 million-dollar false arrest lawsuit, almost simultaneously.

First, a federal judge yesterday scathingly advocated tossing out the March 17 initiated legal action by the former owner of Oklahoma’s Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park. Then today another judge rejected the currently incarcerated Exotic’s attempt to force a recusal in the civil matter.

Nancy Drew‘s world was forever changed on Wednesday when she discovered that the most important mystery of her life was the one she didn’t even know she was solving.

Let’s start with reveal numero uno: Lucy Sable’s death wasn’t necessarily a homicide. After literally unearthing Lucy’s diary, Nancy discovered that she had secretly been pregnant. She gave birth on the cliff that night, and her subsequent fall was either an accident or — quite possibly, God forbid — her own decision. Either way, Carson Drew is no longer a suspect in what is no longer being considered a murder.

The announcement of a Woody Allen memoir was not meant with excitement by Hachette Book Group employees or those working at their multiple imprints. Dozens of employees across several imprints staged a walk-out earlier today to protest the release of Allen's upcoming memoir. Little, Brown and Company is one of the imprints under the Hachette umbrella. They are the publisher for Allen's estranged son Ronan Farrow's Catch and Kill book, which isn't sitting well with Farrow at the moment. Farrow has since announced that he is dropping the publisher.

Woody Allen's memoir, 'Apropos of Nothing', was just announced. The book details the director's life behind the camera, along with his personal life. At least 75 Hachette employees took to the streets this morning to protest the publisher's decision to work with Allen, who has been accused of sexual assault by his adoptive daughter Dylan Farrow.

A similar walk-out was staged...

Mere days after the announcement that filmmaker Woody Allen would have a memoir hit shelves on April 7, dozens of employees from Hachette Book Group have staged a walkout from its New York City offices. Hachette owns the memoir’s imprint, Grand Central Publishing, as well as Little, Brown and Company, the publisher behind Allen’s estranged son Ronan Farrow’s #MeToo investigative reporting tome “Catch and Kill.” Farrow announced yesterday that he was dropping the publisher.

In a report from Deadline, news of the walkout on Thursday surfaced via Twitter, where one participant said there were at least 75 employees from the various imprints who took to the streets to protest the forthcoming memoir, titled “Apropos of Nothing.” See more reactions below. Another participant noted that this tactic was used similarly back in February 2018 to cancel disgraced political commentator Milo Yiannopoulos’ book “Dangerous” at Simon & Schuster, which ended up dropping the title.

I remember when extra-long TV episodes were a selling point. If “The X-Files” was airing a two-hour “television event,” Fox would lead its promos with the upped runtime. Finales were given extra gravitas with extended episodes, and sweeps week was filled with mega entries of each network’s highest-rated shows. “Longer” was meant to equal “better,” even though the motivation for most of these episodes was based in selling more ads around a popular program, rather than the program’s creators begging for more time.

Nevertheless, the “longer=better” concept has cemented itself in the minds of not only TV viewers (as those ads intended), but many of today’s TV creators, as well. Even when ads are a non-factor — like series on premium cable and streaming — there’s an abundance of flagrant offenders. Shows like Amazon Prime’s “Hunters” (which starts with a 90-minute pilot), HBO’s “The Outsider...

The sequel to Dangerous Driving will speed onto PC and consoles this year.

Three Fields Entertainment has announced that Dangerous Driving 2 is in the works. This, of course, is the sequel to Dangerous Driving, the high-octane racing game that was developed by a lot of people that previously worked on the Burnout franchise.

The crashing-heavy Dangerous Driving launched in April 2019 and is widely considered to be a spiritual successor to Burnout. This means that Dangerous Driving 2 is the official sequel to that spiritual successor. Does that make sense?

On the company's official website, as well as sharing the funky artwork that we've plonked atop this page, Three Fields Entertainment confirmed a few key features for Dangerous Driving 2. According to the blog post that broke the news of the game's existence, Dangerous Driving 2 will have split-screen multiplayer, online components from day one, and an open-world for players to explore.

Webster University presents “The Other St. Nick”, a six-film Nicholas Ray Film Festival that runs December 27th-January 5th at the University’s Moore Auditorium(470 E Lockwood Ave). The films screen Friday, Saturdays, and Sundays at 7:00pm the weekends of Dec 27-29th and Jan 3-5th. The series continues tonight, December 29th at 7pm with On Dangerous Ground (1951)

A film noir more often compared to the work of Carl Theodor Dreyer than its American contemporaries, On Dangerous Ground concerns the hot-headed detective Jim Wilson (Robert Ryan), who partners up with Walter Brent (Ward Bond), the father of a murdered young girl, in the solving of the crime. Along the way they encounter a blind woman, Mary Malden (Ida Lupino), who may offer a key to the case. Featuring a memorable score from master Bernard Herrmann.

The Michael Jackson Estate has reached an undisclosed settlement with Disney, putting to bed a 2018 copyright infringement lawsuit over “The Last Days of Michael Jackson” TV special.

Both sides filed a notice in U.S. District Court Wednesday to dismiss the complaint in favor of a settlement.

In the suit, which was brought against Disney in May of 2018, the estate called the special “a mediocre look back at Michael Jackson’s life and entertainment career,” and accused Disney of swiping the estate’s intellectual property.

Her Roxette bandmate, Per Gessle, also issued a statement on social media and via Dimberg Jernberg, saying, “Time goes by so quickly.

When William Zabka was cast in the role of Johnny Lawrence in 1984’s The Karate Kid, it’s safe to say the last thing he was thinking about was how he would play the character as a middle-aged man 35 years later.

“Bohemian Rhapsody” producer Graham King has struck a deal with the Michael Jackson estate for the pop star’s life and music rights, with plans to make a feature film based on both.

King has tapped “Gladiator” and “The Aviator” screenwriter John Logan for the project. The film currently has no studio or distributor attached. The script will not provide a “sanitized” look at the life of Jackson, accused of child sexual abuse in the explosive documentary “Leaving Neverland” this year, said a report from Deadline Hollywood, which first broke the news.

A King spokesperson confirmed the project with Variety, but would not comment on whether Logan’s script would include Jackson’s accusers — including choreographer Wade Robson and former child actor James Safechuck, both of whom had documented relationships with the late singer since childhood.

In response to “Leaving Neverland,” which won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special this year,...

There won’t be any more New York Times or Washington Post deliveries to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Politico reports.

White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham told Politico on Tuesday that the White House “won’t be renewing” its subscriptions, a dat after President Trump criticized the papers on Fox News. He told Sean Hannity that the Post is a “fake deal” and the Times is a “fake newspaper.”

“We don’t even want it in the White House anymore,” he added. “We’re going to probably terminate that and The Washington Post. They’re fake.”

HBO wants another shot at convincing a court that the Michael Jackson Estate can't go to arbitration over its Emmy-winning sex abuse documentary Leaving Neverland. On Monday, the pay network filed paperwork for a high-stakes appeal.

The Michael Jackson Estate is attempting to enforce a non-disparagement clause in a 1992 contract — one that provided HBO with rights to air a televised concert following the release of Jackson's album Dangerous. That contract had provisions pertaining to secrecy and non-disparagement, which the estate is seizing upon to litigate Leaving Neverland, which focuses on allegations against Jackson by Wade Robson and James Safechuck....

Why Are The Oscars Called “Oscars”?

Ever wonder why the Academy Awards are called the Oscars? Like most narratives in Hollywood, it’s a story lost to lore. The name credit primarily has been given to three assignors: Academy librarian Margaret Herrick, journalist Sidney Skolsky, and actress Bette Davis. The Academy officially adopted the nickname in 1939 making Oscar part of history.

Oscar was originally called the much more formal “The Academy Award of Merit,” which doesn’t quite have the personality that “Oscar” does. One of the academy’s founding members, MGM art director Cedric Gibbons, designed the original statuette: a sword-wielding crusader for the arts, standing on a film reel. He would go on to garner twenty-eight nominations and take home eleven awards. His collaborator, sculptor George Stanley reportedly modeled the statue after a Mexican model and actor Emilio “El Indio” Fernández.

Netflix greenlit the eight-episode, hourlong series in January.

A judge’s tentative ruling Thursday will allow Michael Jackson’s estate to continue its $100 million lawsuit against HBO for airing the documentary “Leaving Neverland.”

U.S. District Court Judge George Wu is expected to issue a final decision at the end of September.

The Jackson estate filed the lawsuit against HBO in February on the grounds that the “Leaving Neverland” documentary violated the terms of a non-disparagement clause of a 1992 agreement that granted HBO the right to air video from his “Dangerous” tour.

HBO filed a motion in August asking that the estate’s lawsuit be dismissed, citing the First Amendment. The documentary details accusations by Wade Robson and James Safechuck that Jackson sexually abused them when they were children.

“The estate will never stop until justice has been obtained,” said Bryan J. Freedman, a representative for the Jackson estate.

Howard Weitzman, attorney for the Jackson estate, told TheWrap...

Editor’s note: This story has been updated with an additional statement from the Jackson estate.

The Michael Jackson estate and HBO may be headed to public arbitration in their dispute over the “Leaving Neverland” documentary after a federal judge Thursday declined HBO’s request to throw out the case.

The late pop star’s estate sued HBO after the documentary, which profiles James Safechuck and Wade Robson, who said they were sexually abused by Jackson as boys, first aired earlier this year. It claimed the network in airing the film violated a non-disparagement agreement from a 1992 concert film made during Jackson’s “Dangerous” tour.

Federal Judge George Wu on Thursday issued a tentative ruling denying HBO’s request to dismiss the case. He’s expected to make a final ruling by the end of the month, Variety reported. HBO attorney Theodore Boutrous claimed the Jackson estate had filed the...

Washington Post Executive Editor Martin Baron has fired back at President Trump for threatening to ban two Post reporters from the White House over a story that accused him of “self-sabotage.”

“The Washington Post staff is immensely proud to have these two superb journalists on staff,” Baron wrote in a statement issued by the paper’s communications VP, Kris Coratti.

“Philip Rucker and Ashley Parker have consistently demonstrated their integrity in covering the White House. We stand fully behind them and their important work,” Baron added. “The president’s statement fits into a pattern of seeking to denigrate and intimidate the press. It’s unwarranted and dangerous, and it represents a threat to a free press in this country.”

MTV has removed late King of Pop Michael Jackson's name from their prestigious Video Vanguard Award.

The award had the "Dangerous" hitmaker's name in its prefix.

The Network has removed the name in the wake of HBO's controversial documentary "Leaving Neverland", which focuses on sexual abuse allegations against the late pop superstar, reports "pagesix.com".

MTV did include Jackson's name on a press release sent out to announce rapper Missy Elliott as this year's Vanguard recipient but other promos excluded his name.

While accepting the award, Elliott did mention Jackson during her acceptance speech. "The Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award means so much to me," she said.

Warner Bros. has released a couple of new clips from their upcoming new DC animated film Batman: Hush. The first clip is called “Batman Vs. Bane” so, of course, you are going to get to see the two characters brutally fight! The second clip is called “Cat Chase” which features Batman chasing down Catwoman.

I’m a big fan of this Batman storyline which was originally written by Jeph Loeb with art by Jim Lee. I liked the first trailer that was released and there’s a good chance this will be a decent adaptation that fans will enjoy. Here’s the synopsis for those of you not familiar with the story:

Home Entertainment on Digital starting July 20, 2019, and on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, , Blu-ray Combo Pack and the DC Universe streaming service on August 13, 2019.

Batman: Hush will be available on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack ($39.99 Srp) and Blu-ray Combo Pack ($24.98 Srp) as well as on Digital ($19.99 HD). The 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack features an Ultra HD Blu-ray disc in 4K with Hdr and a Blu-ray disc featuring the film; the Blu-ray Combo Pack features the film in hi-definition. The 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray Combo Pack include a digital version of the film.

Now that the likes of Year One, The Dark Knight Returns, The Killing Joke and Under the Red Hood are out of the way, it’s long overdue that Batman: Hush be adapted as an animated film. Not only does the source material remain my favorite comic book story arc to feature the Caped Crusader, but it also serves as a perfect jumping on point because it includes so many essential characters.

Fortunately, we won’t have to wait much longer for it to arrive, as the flick will be made available digitally beginning on July 2oth, with 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack and Blu-ray Combo Pack releases set to follow on August 13th. Additionally, it’ll also hit the DC Universe streaming service on the latter date given.

The closeup changes everything. In 1934, Bette Davis became a Star.

In other words, do you count her write-in nomination for Of Human Bondage (1934), her breakout star-making role which obviously led to her first win for the lesser performance in Dangerous (1935) the very next year, as one of her nods or do you go by the Academy's 'Of Human Bondage is not an official nomination' stance even though it's such an intrinsic part of Oscar lore of the 1930s?...

It could be lucky No. 7 and 13 for Glenn Close. She picked up her seventh Oscar nomination on Tuesday, for Best Actress for “The Wife,” which did not get any other nominations. If Close’s name is finally in the envelope on Oscar day, she’d be the 13th winner in the category as the only nominee for her film.

The first 12 were:

1. Mary Pickford, “Coquette” (1928/29)

2. Marie Dressler, “Min and Bill” (1930/31)

3. Helen Hayes, “The Sin of Madelon Claudet” (1931/32)

4. Katharine Hepburn, “Morning Glory” (1932/33)

5. Bette Davis, “Dangerous” (1935)

6. Joanne Woodward, “The Three Faces of Eve” (1957)

For at least a decade now, rap beats have been getting fiercer every year.
