Keeping true to his schedule, comedian Jerry Seinfeld just dropped a new episode of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee earlier today with guest Fred Armisen. The Portlandia star showed the vet Seinfeld lead around the city he loves so dearly (so much so that he created a series about it with Sleater-Kinney lead Carrie Brownstein), Portland. And as usual, it certainly didn’t disappoint – especially because of that surprise bonus piece which included Michael Richards reprising his role as Crackle president Dick Corcoran. Read More »
While the Charlotte Hornets ended up losing this week's game against the Chicago Bulls 102 to 95, adding up to 10 straight loses, one of the best highlights of the season came from star point guard Kemba Walker. The talented NBA star found himself faced with the imposing Spanish-Montenegrin shooting guard of the Bulls, Nikola Mirotić, but quickly dealt with the 6'10" opponent, breaking his ankles with one of the quickest crossovers the league has seen. As Mirotić fell to the ground, insult was added to injury as Walker drained a three-point shot. Perhaps the best part of the night came when cameras panned to Hornets owner Michael Jordan, a former Chicago Bull as we all know, laughing at the player on the floor. Read More »

Could "Glitter & Ribs" be 2015's first Top 10 hit for Taylor Swift? The pop superstar has a new song to record and, while it might not be on her hit 2014 album "1989," it was written for Tay-Tay specially by "Billy on the Street" host Billy Eichner ... and judging from the video below, it sounds perfect for the "Shake It Off" star. The only thing it needs is perhaps a mention of a 2015 dating rumor or taking down an ex-boyfriend like Ed Sheeran or Harry Styles. As Billy tells Conan, the song centers around the most perplexing and confusing aspect of relationships: "Taylor Swift is writing about the most important topic, which is what happens when your boyfriend doesn't text you back, and I think that's so essential, Conan!" As "Jezebel" points out, "Glitter & Ribs" "fits perfectly into her signature girl-meets-boy narrative," considering it contains lyrical gems like: "He was a boy / I was a girl / What more do you need to know? / He was a boy, he walked through the door / He was a door-walking-through boy" and "You'll never know my heart like my heart knows my heart."

So far it’s been a good day for Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon. Following some remarks and questions about he and BFF Justin Timberlake being “lovers” – a question asked by Martin Short’s Jiminy Glick character – it’s now being reported that the former Saturday Night Live star has welcomed in his second child with wife Nancy. Their newborn daughter was born via surrogate just as their first child, Winnie Rose, was back in July 2013. So we guess Jessica Biel and her baby bump have nothing to worry about, huh? Read More »

What do you get when you mix Ellen DeGeneres with Fifty Shades of Grey, one hilarious sexy movie that's what. The TV talk show host poked fun at the fact that the film recast its main lead of Christian Grey from Charlie Hunnam and to Jamie Dornan earlier this year, and thought it would be fun to recast Anastasia Steele with herself in the trailer for the BDSM film. The comedienne placed herself into the trailer over all the Dakota Johnson parts, and we must say that the editing work is pretty flawless, for a second we thought that Ellen might be in the movie, but only for a second.

The current Ferguson protests - which began as a result of the "no indictment" decision against former Officer Darren Wilson surrounding the murder of unarmed teen Michael Brown - have caused quite a bit of stir in the news these days, especially after a number of St. Louis Rams players sported the "Hands Up, Don't Shoot" gesture during one of their games. And following the St. Louis police asking the NFL the apology for the gesture (in which the Rams' coach basically told them to screw off), there's been much discussion about "black-on-black" crime, something The Daily Show with Jon Stewart easily picked up on. To further the discussion, the Comedy Central hit brought in their Senior Black Correspondent, Larry Wilmore, who will replace Stephen Colbert with The Nightly Show when The Colbert Report ends.

What happens when "Wild" star Reese Witherspoon and Jimmy Fallon take to "The Tonight Show" to replace the lyrics of Christmas carols with random phrases like "Slimy toad, bumpy toad"? Hilarity, that's what. In the clip below, Witherspoon delivered a couple terrific performances, showing off the voice that won her an Oscar for her portrayal of June Carter Cash in 2005's "Walk the Line" ... but the star also forgets how to sing "Silent Night"! Luckily, she had Fallon to help guide her, and then the pair team up for an excellent Christmas crescendo. You can watch the clip here: Read More »
