'It's just a crazy twist of fate,' says Mae, who wrote only original song on Boyle's album.

Most of the world has never heard of 25-year-old Oklahoma-bred singer-songwriter Audra Mae. But thanks to a little song called "Who I Was Born To Be," she's worked her way into at least 3 million homes almost overnight.
"Born" is the only original song on the smash debut album from "Britain's Got Talent" runner-up Susan Boyle, I Dreamed a Dream, and the enormity of having a track on a release that sold more copies in its first week in the U.S. than any other this year is just starting to sink in for the grandniece of famed Hollywood icon Judy Garland.
"Honestly, I haven't wrapped my brain around the whole thing yet," Mae said on Wednesday (December 2), just hours after sales figures for the first week of Dream were released. »

Katie Holmes wants Tom Cruise to become a TV talent show judge. Choreographer Mary Murphy recently revealed she would love to see the 'Valkyrie' star join her on the panel of Us dance contest 'So You Think You Can Dance' and the actor's wife - who dazzled viewers with a Judy Garland-inspired routine on a special edition of the programme earlier this year - thinks he would be the perfect person to judge the contestants.

Katie Holmes: Tom Cruise Will Be a Great 'Sytycd' Judge
30 November 2009 1:04 AM, PST | Celebrity Mania | See recent Celebrity Mania news »
Judges Mary Murphy and Adam Shankman are not the only people who love the idea of Tom Cruise being a guest judge on Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance", his wife Katie Holmes also supported the notion. The revelation was made by the Rachel Dawes of "Batman Begins" herself at the Dizzy Feet Foundation gala on Sunday, November 29.
When asked by Marc Malkin of E! Online at the backstage of the event held at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, the 30-year-old actress gushed, "He would be great. He really would." It is still unclear whether she had the chance to talk with Murphy at the gala about Cruise's possible role. But, Murphy has stated at the red carpet that she will try to do so, promising "If I can just slide my way in there, I will."
Back in early October, Mary Murphy has sparked rumor of Tom Cruise »

Jose Gives Thanks.
26 November 2009 1:30 PM, PST | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
Jose here.
Although we don't have anything resembling Thanksgiving in my culture (Penélope Cruz was talking about that on Letterman the other day) I have a special place in my heart (and stomach) for turkey, gravy and pumpkin pie.
I also feel very grateful for the following: Technicolor, Woody Allen banter, Judy Garland's smile, the millisecond of suspense between normal talking and spontaneous singing in the musicals, post-Volver Penélope, the Truffaut/Hitchcock book, still being thrilled by the sepia-to-color switch in The Wizard of Oz, Nino Rota and La Strada, Julia Roberts' laugh, Scarlett and Rhett, Bette Davis' eyes, Ingrid Bergman's Italian phase, Jett Rink, Jacques Tourneur horror flicks, The Blob, pre-supermom Gwyneth, Wall-e, Jean-Pierre Léaud, Anne Hathaway at award shows, Brando as Kowalski, Meryl!, Gene Kelly's butt, subtitles...

Lady Gaga could have easily gone up in flames during her fiery American Music Awards performance on Sunday night, but things got really dangerous during her bloody Vma performance back in September.
In a recent interview with MTV News, Gaga recalled leaving MTV execs speechless when she brought up her bizarre plan for the performance.
"For my MTV performance, I still keep learning about what I was trying to say," she told MTV News. "I just knew I had to bleed to death for four minutes on TV, and I remember telling MTV, and they were really quiet on the other end of the line. And it was silent, and then they said, »

Scorsese to Receive Honorary Golden Globe
13 November 2009 1:21 PM, PST | Reelzchannel.com | See recent ReelzChannel news »
The Hollywood Foreign Press will bestow its honorary Cecil B. DeMille Award to Martin Scorsese during the Golden Globes on January 17, according to Variety.
Scorsese, who is a few days from his 67th birthday, is responsible for several movies legendary for their gritty, sometimes expressionistic, portrayals of violence. These include Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, and GoodFellas.
He also crafted many underrated gems that explored various social and cultural issues. These include The King of Comedy (the obsessions of celebrity culture), The Last Temptation of Christ (a non-Gospel, first-person telling of Jesus's internal struggle), Kundun (the life of the Dalai Lama), and Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (the trials of single-motherhood).
The DeMille Award recognizes the lifetime achievement of various actors and directors. Recent recipients include Steven Spielberg, Robin Williams, and Al Pacino. Earlier recipients include Walt Disney, Fred Astaire, Judy Garland, and Alfred Hitchcock, among others. You can »

'New Moon' Star Kristen Stewart 'Fesses Up To Being 'The Luckiest Person In The World'
12 November 2009 10:30 AM, PST | MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news »
From MTV.Com: Dating all the way back to names like Judy Garland, Mickey Rooney, Fatty Arbuckle, Shirley Temple and the Little Rascals, it seems like young overnight Hollywood sensations have been around for as long as Edward Cullen has been a vampire. Some have navigated the choppy waters of fame and gone on to great careers (Jodie Foster, Johnny Depp), while others (Jan-Michael Vincent, Lindsay Lohan) haven't been so lucky.
In the past year, names like Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart and Taylor Lautner have been splashed across supermarket tabloids, "hot" lists and paparazzi-stalking itineraries. But when we recently caught up with Stewart to discuss the stars' upcoming return in "New Moon," she insisted that A-level fame isn't really as bad as it's sometimes made out to be.

Charles Chaplin’s The Circus, Aladdin, Easy Rider Screenings
9 November 2009 10:51 PM, PST | Alternative Film Guide | See recent Alternative Film Guide news »
Among the upcoming screenings in the November film series of the Library of Congress’ Packard Campus for Audio Visual Conservation in Culpeper, Va., are vehicles for just about everyone, from Charles Chaplin to Dennis Hopper; from Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland to Robin Williams‘ voice. I’ve never seen Disney’s Aladdin, though I know it was a big hit when it came out. Robin Williams was particularly praised for his voice work as the Genie — some even went as far as to demand that the Academy come up with Oscars for best voice performance. No one came up with that demand when Charles Chaplin’s The Circus was released, perhaps because the film has no audible dialogue. I’m not a big [...] »

Linda Eder Comes To The Van Wezel 12/9 With A Holiday Concert
9 November 2009 2:18 PM, PST | BroadwayWorld.com | See recent BroadwayWorld.com news »
Linda Eder, the songstress whose larger-than-life voice has been called "the human equivalent of a Stradivarius" (theatermania.com) returns to the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall on Wednesday, Dec. 9 with a concert of holiday songs and favorites from her CDs. Tickets to the concert, at 8 p.m., are $40-$55 (with a limited number of "smart seats" at $10).
Often compared to Barbra Streisand and Judy Garland, two of her musical influences, the Minnesota native first captured public attention with her unprecedented 12- week winning streak on the TV show Star Search. The success expanded her fan base nationally and led to a leading role as Lucy Harris in the 1990 Broadway- bound musical Jekyll & Hyde. The mainstay of Eder's career, however, remains the concert stage.
Reviewing a recent concert, Chicago Tribune Arts Editor Howard Reich raved that Eder has "the most voluptuous voice in pop music today."

Screen Queens: Sally Bowles
8 November 2009 8:27 AM, PST | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
MattCanada here with another week of homo classics. Since I started writing this weekly column about a month ago, I have focused on films which have not been Oscar contenders and not featured the actresses which Nathaniel, me, and all the readers of this website respect (read: worship in a cult-like fashion). So on to Cabaret!
Liza Minnelli's Oscar winning role as Sally Bowles may well be the gayest Oscar win of all time. Now I am not a big Liza fan, actually I actively dislike her in anything else, but in Cabaret she gives one of the most amazing performances in the history of cinema in the greatest movie musical of all time. Not to be hyperbolic or anything, but Liza's Sally and Cabaret are earth shatteringly good. Liza is hardly the only reason to love Cabaret. You can get almost as much pleasure out of Joel Grey and Marisa Berenson's performances, »
