With the success of Eminem, Dr. Dre has been out of the media these past years to produce music beats and continue working on his final album Detox.

Comedic Genius: Will Ferrell
If you dont know who Will Ferrell is, then you must have grown up in a cave for all of your years. He is responsible for starring and really making a movie a blockbuster that no one will ever forget. With his two most famous movies, Anchorman and Talladega Nights, he adds this latest blockbuster to the list, Step Brothers. John William "Will" Ferrell born July 16, 1967, is an Emmy- and Golden Globe-nominated American comedian, actor, voice actor, and writer who first established himself as a cast member of Saturday Night Live, and has since gone on to a successful film career, starring in the comedies A Night at the Roxbury (1998), Old School, Elf (both 2003), Anchorman (2004), Kicking & Screaming (2005), Talladega Nights, Stranger than Fiction (both 2006), Blades of Glory (2007), Semi-Pro and Step Brothers (both 2008). He is considered a member of the Frat Pack, a generation of leading Hollywood comic actors to emerge in the late 1990s and the 2000s including Jack Black, Ben Stiller, Steve Carell, Vince Vaughn, and brothers Owen and Luke Wilson. In 2007, Autograph magazine named Ferrell the worst celebrity autographer. Its' editor stated, "What's so frustrating about Will Ferrell being the worst autograph signer this past year is that he used to be so nice to fans and collectors and a great signer. What makes him so bad is that he'll taunt people asking for his autograph." In response, Ferrell has stated, "I don't know how I got on the list. I sign a lot of autographs," but has admitted to taunting autograph-seekers: "I do. I really do. I'm like, 'How badly do you want this autograph?' 'Are you sure?' 'You say you're my biggest fan, really, prove it.' I'll do things like that. They have to earn it."Ferrell has noted that, though he is well known for his SNL impersonation of President George W. Bush, he chose not to meet the President on several occasions, unlike his SNL predecessor Dana Carvey's famous chummy relationship with George Bush, Sr., for both professional and political reasons: "I declined, partly out of comedic purposes, because when I was on the show [Saturday Night Live] at the time, it didn't make sense to really meet the people that you play, for fear of them influencing you. And then the other side of it is, from a political standpoint, I don't want to meet that guy."

Harry Potter movie pushed to next summer
Originally slated to come out in November of this year, the newest silver screen installation of the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, will instead be released in July 17 2009. An MTV news article reported that Warner Bros "had reconsidered the timing based on the overall market as well as the recent writers' strike," which had affected the production of scripts. President and CEO of Warner Bros. said that summer is the best season to put out movies like Harry Potter, having the highest prospect of drawing large audiences. There were rumors that production was falling behind schedule, but Warner Bros. dismissed this saying that the next Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, will come out on the date its is promised to be released. In fact, the release delay was actually viewed positively by some Harry Potter fans because "'the gap will now be shortened between the release of 'Half-Blood Prince' and the first installment of 'Deathly Hallows'."

Craig Robinson went beyond his camera role as a drug runner in the recent pot-laden movie Pineapple Express when he was arrested in Culver City, California last July 29 for illegal drug possession. He is currently being charged with three felony counts. Robinson is being accused of having ecstasy and Meth "and being under the influence of cocaine, amphetamines and cannabinoids (most likely marijuana, although possibly other medications)."

A similar incident happened earlier this year with DiCaprio and Bar. Wonder what Leo thinks of this weekend's happenings???? In other news, DiCaprio is one of the most high paid actors in Hollywood. The top 10 best paid actors in Hollywood have out earned female actresses 2-1 over the last year! Collectively, the top male actors took home approximately $487 million this year - as opposed to the leading ladies who brought in $244.5 million. And, of that, the highest paid male actor is surprisingly Will Smith. Smith took home an estimated $80 million during the last year!!!!

Another Batman Sequel?
As most of you have already seen, The Dark Knight was awesome movie. So i guess it wouldn't be such a bad idea to cash in on all that success by creating yet another sequel, right? But what will they do with the Heath Ledger's character "The Joker"? Will they cast another character for the part, or write out the joker completely? As you know, the upcoming movie The Dark Knight will feature Batman battling it out with the Joker and Two Face. The original plan was to have the Joker, played by Heath Ledger, return for the next film. However, given that after his death they more than likely won't recast for the role, some changes have been made and the next villain has been revealed. If another Batman flick is made, he will then be going up against the Riddler. The last Riddler was played by Jim Carrey in Batman Forever, though no word on if he'll return. More likely than not - he won't. Actor Gary Oldman, who plays Lt James Gordon, says of casting choices for the next film, "I don't see why not. I mean, they did it with Katie Holmes' character. I understand that this is a different circumstance, but I think another actor could do the job. I think Heath would want another actor to do the job. Maybe we don't need the Joker. Because we'll have The Riddler." Katie's character, Rachel Dawes, will now be played by Maggie Gyllenhaal. You know Katie is too "big" now for a Batman movie.

RIP: Bernie Mac
Bernie Mac did a great job of adding laughter to the showbiz industry. But today, I doubt very seriously his fans are laughing hard. The comedian has passed away at the age of 50 in Chicago from "complications due to pneumonia", according to Bernie Mac's publicist, Danica Smith. The comedian has garnered acclaim throughout his career, particularly in his award-winning show, "The Bernie Mac Show". He has also appeared Born in the Chicago's south side, it is not too surprising that the comedian decided to throw his support behind Democratic presidential candidate, Barack Obama, who was once a community organizer in that area. There was recent news of him being booed by an Obama fund raising crowd after a few vulgar jokes, but that small mistake cannot tarnish the legend that is Bernie Mac. His career was rooted in humble beginnings, working his way up from playing a minor role in the 1992 comedy, Mo Money to being a Hollywood superstar.

Actor Morgan Freeman Seriously Hurt in Crash
The Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman said to be in a serious condition after the car he was driving flipped over several times late on Sunday. Freeman was driving near his home in Charleston, Mississippi, at the time of the accident. The actor and a female companion were cut free by emergency workers before being airlifted to a hospital 90 miles away in Memphis, Tennessee. The editor of the Charleston Sun Sentinel newspaper, who arrived at the scene shortly after the accident, said Freeman had been conscious and talking to rescuers. "They had to use the jaws of life [hydraulic cutters] to extract him from the vehicle," Clay McFerrin said. "He was lucid, conscious. He was talking, joking with some of the rescue workers at one point."
UPDATE: Freeman is at The Med in Memphis. It is where Lifeflighted patients are taken to. It has the highest level trauma unit in the Mid-South area. It has been reported that he is in serious but stable condition. It has also been announced that Freeman broke his arm and his shoulder.

It's just a song
Barack Obama's Mp3 player (if he does have one) just might get a few additional free disk space. The presidential candidate has decided to distance himself from supporter and rapper Ludacris after coming out with a song that sounded too uncouth for a politician's ears. Obama's rival, namely Hillary Clinton and John McCain were blasted with not-so decent remarks, going lengths as saying that McCain doesn't fit into "any chair unless he's paralyzed. (www.sfgate.com)" It is pretty funny, when you try to get real, but of course, political candidates won't survive very long in their career if they give the slightest hint of being connected with such remark. That's cool, but I do hope that Obama and Ludacris have some sort of a backroom talk that everything is OK between them. I do love politics, but I hate it when someone has to get thrown under a bus because of it. I mean seriously, it's not like Ludacris is uberly scandalous, especially when you look at the latest cover of The New Yorker or tune into Fox News.

Police verdict: She's gone gay!
In a recent article from Associated Press, a police chief has apparently decided that society has just been relieved of one of its problems. Unfortunately, it's not world hunger, poverty, or cancer. Nope. According to William Bratton, a police chief in Los Angeles, celebrity paparazzi is not a concern anymore, thanks in part to the fact that the Paris Hilton-Britney Spears-Lindsey Lohan trifecta have been leading less scandalous lives. The police chief apparently went overboard when he attributed the decline of paparazzi as a problem because Lindsay Lohan had "gone gay". This remark came after seeing a paparazzi video of the actress and friend Samantha Ronson in an airport. Lindsay Lohan lashed at the police chief, lambasting him for his intrusion into her private life. The police chief had refused to attend a city council meeting to discuss curbing paparazzi, saying it was "a complete waste of time".
