Entertainment

I can't exactly say this is entertainment, matter of fact it is quite disturbing. U.S Weekly has released the 1984 video of Micheal Jackson's infamous "Pepsi Incident" where pyrotechnics went horribly wrong.

So perhaps you have heard that Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is on track at breaking the 200 million dollar mark this Sunday after netting 126+ million as of Friday. The sequel to the popular Transformers movie in 2007 has generated quite a buzz. Not simply because of the impressive numbers, but the apparent lack of substance to legitimize those numbers.

The reviews have starting to pile up, as always I turn to my personal favorite for movies reviews with RT. The critics ratings pretty much speak for themselves, Transformers 2 is kind of rotten. But what do you expect, these are adults writing these reviews right?

For some reason today feels like summer for once and nothing goes better with summer than music. If you haven't heard of Chickenfoot then today is your lucky day. Their self titled album came out nearly 2 weeks ago, but today marked the day that a long time rock fan finally felt the heat. Chickenfoot consists of Michael Anthony (bass), Sammy Hagar (vocals), Joe Satriani (guitar), and Chad Smith (drums). If these names don't sound familiar, then you you better keep reading. If this is your first introduction, then welcome to the show.

Sammy Hagar, aka The Red Rocker, at age 61 and 40+ years as a professional musician still has that energy that fans love. Michael Anthony of Van Halen fame once again rejoins his former band mate and produces some solid bass work that fits perfectly with RHCP drummer Chad Smith. And last but not least, Joe Satriani, famous for his solo work, is finally on stage letting his guitar burn along side actual band members. And it seems he has taken a liking to Chad Smith in particular.

“In 2009, the US recording industry will mark 10 consecutive years of declining CD sales,” says Paul Vernae a senior analyst at eMarketer. Since its peak at 14.6 billion in 1999, music sales are expected to drop to a record lows of $5.52 billion by 2013.

But wait it gets better. Not only is the music industry struggling to make half the profits from 10 years ago but they are also spending millions in order to protect their assets. Case in point, the trial of Jammie Thomas-Rasset, a 32 year old mother of 4 who was found guilty of copyright infringement and fined 1.9 million dollars by 4 major major record companies.

In 2007 she was fined $220k for downloading music, but that was thrown out due to jury issues and a new trial then proceeded. The Minneapolis jury awarded the damages after it was proven that Mrs Rasset had illegally downloaded and shared 24 songs on the Kazaa file sharing network.

TB sure beats rice and water huh?

Or should i say, Lack of Entertainment. ABC News is reporting that out of reality TV "stars" Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag of The Hills are orchestrating an alleged promotional stunt for the show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me out of Here!.

Is Heidi "deathly ill". as MTV News Reports, and if so are reports true that she was deprived of food and water leading up to her hospitalization? Heidi's Hubby's sister reportedly alleges that her brother and his wife were being "tortured" and that the family was greatly concerned.

NBC denies any torture, meaning they didn't deny them food and water. Although its rumored they were only allowed to drink water, and eat rice while confined in a room, for timeout punishment for past bad behavior. I don't know, for an attention starved reality TV couple, that does sound like torture. Never mind the fact these the two have a reputation for pulling stunts in order to get publicity. Also inquiring minds want to know.. do they plan on quitting the show yet again or not?

OMG! Please let us know NBC! Guess we will have to tune in to find out. Ummm.. i think i will take a rain check on that.
