SNL Bids Farewell To Kristen Wiig

In: TV Shows, Tyrell

Did you catch Saturday Night Live last night? Hosted by Mick Jagger, the rock star managed to make us laugh hysterically a few times including the multiple jabs at his crazy stage antics. But, the emotion ran over when the show aired their final skit of the season: a farewell to the brilliant, talented and funny Kristen Wiig.

Yes, Kristen is saying farewell to the Saturday Night crew like all the best and funny ones do. Kristen clearly proved that she’s ready to take over the world when she co-wrote and starred in “Bridesmaids.” Now, she’s ready to take on more film roles and write them too! To say goodbye, Mick and company serenaded her with the song “Ruby Tuesday” while each cast member took a turn dancing with her. Even creator and executive producer Lorne Michaels took a turn dancing with her. The part that will choke you up is watching her dance with fellow cast members Bill Hader and Jason Sudeikis. The poor guy can barely hold himself together.

Kristen will truly be missed on the show as she was a refreshing sight to many skits over what some may say is a dry, few seasons. Watch the touching tribute below.

This weekend, the highly anticipated board game turned feature film “Battleship” hit theatres in North America. After a rocking turn out and record breaking numbers overseas, many critics expected the Hasbro creation to overturn the reign of “The Avengers.” However, the powers of Taylor Kitsch and Rihanna were no match for the superheros and only came in second place with just over $25 million. That’s just over half over what they were projected to bring in. What else opened this weekend?

Sascha Baren Cohen’s new film “The Dictator” also debuted this weekend at the box office. Not unlike his previous runaway hits, Cohen continues to shock audiences while making them laugh with his unique blend of humor and political satire. The film came in third place this weekend grossing just over $24 million. A comedy that hit theatres on Friday was the book turned film, “What To Expect When You’re Expecting” which features a slew of stars – too many to name actually. Despite the huge names behind the project, the film failed to impress and came in fifth place behind “Dark Shadows.” Check out the weekend’s box office results below.

New Music Obsession: Labrinth

In: Music, Tyrell, Videos

I’ve got some more UK music for you, and I know you are going to love this guy. May I introduce you to Timothy McKenzie, better known as Labrinth. This 23-year-old London native is making big waves in the music scene with his unique blend of pop, R&B, dubstep and everything in between. Labrinth is signed with Syco records which is run by talent show megamind, Simon Cowell. Interestingly enough, Labrinth is the first non-talent show artist to be signed to the label in six years. Originally arranged to sign on as a producer, Simon agreed to turn his contract into a solo act.

Labrinth got major recognition when he became working with Tinie Tempah. His co-written and produced track titled “Pass Out” debuted at Number One on the UK Singles Chart and definitely sparked a writing and production chemistry made in heaven. The two collaborated once again on “Frisky.” It debuted at Number Two on the UK Singles Chart, went straight to #1 in Scotland and charted in Australia.

Labrinth’s debut album, “Electronic Earth” dropped on April 2 of this year and has already boasted four massive singles. The lead-off was single, “Let The Sun Shine” was only a tease of what was to come from this young artist. Suddenly, we began hearing tracks like “Earthquake” and “Last Time” which showed Labrinth’s diversity. Friday, Labrinth released the video for his latest single which is remake of the Charles Wright classic, “Express Yourself.” The track has yet to perform as well as previous singles but the video is sure help gain some momentum. Watch & listen below.

Homorazzi has been giving Cheryl Cole a lot more love lately. A few weeks ago, the former Girls Aloud singer and X Factor judge released a brand new solo single with the help of smash dance floor producer and DJ, Calvin Harris. Although the Brit hasn’t officially started promoting “Call My Name” quite yet as the song only was just released onto iTunes in the UK, the single did come with two alternate B-sides.

The first one is titled “Make You Go” and it’s little bit of a schitzophrenic track for what I would normally expect from Cheryl. The track combines a little bit of the Black Eyed Peas with M.I.A. I can’t even place the vocals because they barely sound like her. It’s got a fun little reggaeton beat and the lyrics are little cheeky in the hook, but other than that, there is a clear reason why this track only cut it as a B-side.

The second track is a slower piano ballad titled “Telescope.” It’s a little reminiscent of something I’d expect to hear on Christina Perri’s latest album. While it’s a nice and soulful chance up from “Call My Name,” it fails to really impress. I think if Cheryl’s vocals were presented a little more strongly, it could really be a strong single. However, the producer seemed to have sucked out all the emotion of the her vocal performance. Give a listen to both tracks and tell me what you think.

On Thursday, DJ Pauly D made famous by his antics on MTV’s Jersey Shore debuted the music video for his new single, “Night of My Life” featuring his buddy Dash. The track is basically what you’d expect from Pauly and his crew. The synth and drum heavy track pulses through as dash sings about popping bottles, hitting on girls and checking out the clubs – thus, making it the night of his life.

The video which is basically a bunch of B-roll camera footage thrown together showcases Pauly and his crew as they tour America’s clubs and casinos playing shows for drunk crowds of Jersey Shore wannabes. While I don’t mind the song at all, I wish the video would have been a little more thought out and playful. I’m not the only one who isn’t on board with the video. On Thursday night, Pauly D found himself in the midst of a Twitter feud with dance floor DJ and producer, Deadmau5.

We all know that Taylor Swift is kind of America’s Sweetheart, but her latest charity gesture definitely puts her in the running from most generous country star – ever. Yesterday, the country musician made a generous donation to the Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum. Just how generous? She donated to the tune of $4 Million. Swift’s donation is the biggest to ever be bestowed upon the museum by a singular country artist. So what exactly is the lump sum going towards?

Expected to open in 2014, the CMHFM will use the money for the new Taylor Swift Education Center which will house an exhibit and classroom space. The museum’s director, Kyle Young said in a statement, “it will allow us to do what we do better, serve more people, develop new programs and I’m happy to say that as we talked through this opportunity with Taylor, she very much wants to be involved in an advisory capacity in what we do. IIs there a better person out there who’s in touch with a young audience?” I couldn’t agree more with the last statement.

It’s great to see a young star doing something great with their money and making an impact on this new generation. Good for you Taylor. In other exciting Taylor news, she recently released a the lyric video for her new single, “Eyes Open.” This lyric video is quite impressive as we watch some stop motion photography bring a desk and some doodles to life. The song is also a total hit and I can hear on any upcoming rom-com soundtrack. Watch Taylor’s newest lyric video and share your comments below.

Sean Kingston has had one rollercoaster of a year. After a treacherous jet ski accident which put Sean in critical condition, it was unsure whether or not we’d see him a make a triumphant return to music. However, it looks like the time as come and this new single couldn’t be more appropriate. The new track is titled “Back 2 Life (Live It Up)” and features the rap stylings of T.I.

The song samples Soul II Soul’s famous 1988 hit track “Back 2 Life” and assume the concept for the track came in light of Sean’s recent accident and recovery. In the track, Sean sings “What don’t kill me, make me stronger / I know it’s gonna be alright / So celebrating tonight, we’re celebrating life tonight.” Producer JR Rotem is responsible for the banger which Kingston states is bringing him back to his island/reggae/pop blend. I personally love the track and can’t wait to see the video which T.I. and Sean already filmed in LA this week. Give a listen to “Back 2 Life (Live It Up)” and tell us what you think in the comments section below.

On June 29, Magic Mike will take it all off and hit theatres to I’m sure, crowds of antsy women and gay men foaming at the mouth to see the sexy cast of men take it (almost) all off. To help celebrate the films upcoming summer release, Entertainment Weekly has created not only one, but two covers. The main cover shows a very sexy Channing about to take off his shirt but when you open the flaps, it reveals cast members Joe Manganiello, Matt Bomer and Matthew McConaughey alongside Channing with the quick tagline, “It’s raining men from Magic Mike.”

In the encompassing article, the boys reveal some behind-the-scenes secrets from the filming of the upcoming stripper film. After the photo shoot, EW took the four cast members out for a boozy dinner where they dished about the movie, the dance sequences and the time where the female extras/fans weighed down Matthew’s thong so much that it actually came off. You can read more about that after the jump. Check out both EW covers below and grab the latest edition of the mag when it hits stands and digital notebooks and tablets on May 18.
