April 05, 2011 @ 3:06 pm PST    Hannah Montana     Elizabeth Sexton    

What would it take for you to follow Miley Cyrus on Twitter?

Odds are she really wants to know.

After quitting the site in 2009 at a time when she had more than 2 million followers, she is making a slow and steady comeback through an account under the name “gypsyhearttour.”

At the time, she claimed the site was too personal and that she wanted to keep details of her life private; however sites like MileyCyrus (the ultimate fansite) point towards her official fansite which charges fans $29.

Who wouldn't want to take a look inside the mind of "30 Rock" creator Tina Fey? The woman is a comedy genius and creator of an Emmy award-winning show...plus, she did an impersonation of Sarah Palin.

"Some may argue that exploiting Governor Palin and her family helped bring attention to my low-rated TV show,” writes Fey in her new book, titled Bossypants.

March Madness Championship Game Wrap-Up: CBS and UConn Win, We Lose
April 05, 2011 @ 12:40 pm PST    2011 NCAA Tournament March Madness, Dancing with the Stars     Andy Neuenschwander    

For a tournament year marked by spectacular upsets and a few last-minute buzzer-beating finishes, it was a truly ugly championship game between the UConn Huskies and the Butler Bulldogs.

How ugly? How does a final score of 53-41 strike you?

There's definitely something to be said for a solid defense, and it certainly seemed as though both teams had one. But the result of two excellent defenses and two struggling offenses is one boring, sloppy game.

'The Dark Knight Rises' Shooting in...Pittsburgh?

Chicago always seemed the perfect fit for Christopher Nolan's take on Batman: historical architecture, the raised L trains, and mixed areas of beauty and seediness worked to create a convincing Gotham City. Undoubtedly, that's why "Batman Begins" and "The Dark Knight" were both shot there.

So why has Christopher Nolan decided to film the last Batman installment, "The Dark Knight Rises," in Pittsburgh?

"Pittsburgh is a beautiful city," said Nolan in a statement.

It's every "Harry Potter" fan's dream to walk through the halls of Hogwarts, and for a short time in Times Square, they can!

"The Harry Potter Experience" arrived in New York yesterday, with the stars of the movie series in attendance. Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson weren't there, but Michael Gambon (Dumbledore), Robbie Coltrane (Hagrid), Bonnie Wright (Ginny) and others were there.

Kevin Smith Auctioning Off Props to Fund Horror Film 'Red State'

Kevin Smith had a great idea: why bother going through movie studios when he can just distribute a movie on his own? So Smith went to Sundance with the film and sold it to himself.

Then he realized that distributing a movie is seriously expensive.

Smith planned a "Red State" nationwide tour, where he would screen the film for fans willing to pay for expensive tickets.

April 05, 2011 @ 10:42 am PST    Jersey Shore     Andy Neuenschwander    

Snooki made her first appearance on "Monday Night RAW," then flipped all over the place in Wrestlemania. If you haven't seen her moves, seriously follow the link and take a look. So what does the "Jersey Shore" star's wrestling future look like?

Apparently there isn't one. She's quitting!

"I'm pretty busy with 'Jersey Shore,'" said the poof-haired punisher.

Yidio Video of the Day: Watch 'Glee' Stars Jane Lynch and Matthew Morrison's Awkward 'Funny or Die' Ride

In an early debut of his Funny Or Die video clips, Matthew Morrison and fellow ‘Glee’ star Jane Lynch buckled up for an awkward ride.

“Why do you have to sing everything like you just swallowed a pair of jazz hands?” Lynch interrogates Morrison.

While the two go green with a carpooling effort, the Tony nominee won’t stop singing regular songs from the radio with a showtune-like approach.

Keanu Reeves Confirms: 'Bill and Ted' Are Planning Another Excellent Adventure
April 05, 2011 @ 9:39 am PST    Henry's Crime     Allie Basilica    

Most excellent dude... "Bill and Ted" are about to be resurrected.

Last year at the Toronto Film Festival Keanu Reeves mentioned a third installment of the '80s classic "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure" was in the works. Not much has been said about the project since, so it was considered a joke.

Yesterday, while promoting his indie flick "Henry's Crime" at MTV Reeves confirmed that another sequel is real and very much underway.

April 05, 2011 @ 8:30 am PST    Dancing with the Stars, Law & Order, Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, My Cousin Vinny     Richard Sharp    

To absolutely no one’s surprise, Mike Catherwood went home last week. There was no weeping, only cold, cold acceptance. This week each dance will tell a “personal tale” and will be danced to a song chosen by the contestants.  Brace yourselves for a cry-fest and a whole lot of awful music. They still need to fill two hours so they open the show with the pro dancers giving us examples of the various dances.
