HOLLYWOOD—Well I saw this coming miles away on “The Bold and the Beautiful,” when Ivy decided to delete the video footage of Steffy whacking their cousin Aly with a tire iron resulting in her death. Ivy was only driven to delete the footage after her new flame Wyatt pleaded for her to do so. Of course, this led to...

HOLLYWOOD—God, I seriously can’t believe that the animated series that aimed to push the envelope compared to “The Simpsons” is still around. No, I’m not talking about “Family Guy” or “American Dad,” I’m talking about Comedy Central’s “South Park.” I so vividly recall when this series first exploded on the tube nearly 20 years ago. It was shocking, depraving, gutsy...

HOLLYWOOD—Next week marks the end of the third season of Tyler Perry’s “The Haves and the Have Nots.” But before we can get to the finale, we had the penultimate episode that will indeed set the stage for drama that will keep audiences talking until the series returns for its fourth season in January 2016. The latest episode, ‘Sheep’s Clothing,’...

HOLLYWOOD—I’m still fuming over the double eviction that took out James, the one contestant that I was rooting for in “Big Brother 17.” It’s always heartbreaking when the underdog loses out, it happens all too often on “Big Brother.” With the numbers vastly dwindling down, Steve came into power and set his sights on breaking up the Austwins. Well...

HOLLYWOOD—It was quite the weekend at the box-office. Movies that were expected to underperform brought in moviegoers in waves. The thriller “The Perfect Guy” starring Sanaa Lathan and Michael Ealy rose to the top with more than $26.7 million to tackle the top spot from “War Room.” Followed close behind was M. Night Shyamalan’s twisty thriller “The Visit” with an...

HOLLYWOOD—I have to say this first and foremost, actor Michael Ealy excels at playing the bad guy. There is something charming that he alludes to in his villainous roles that just capture audiences. His work on the hit Fox series “The Following” proved his capabilities to go dark, but what he does with “The Perfect Guy” is just beyond...

LOS ANGELES—The 2015 Creative Arts Emmys took place on September 12 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Everyone from choreographers, production designers, and hairstylists working in television were honored with the golden statuettes. The big winner of the night was Game of Thrones (HBO), which swept all eight awards it was up for including Outstanding Casting for a Drama...

HELLO AMERICA!—When the news crossed my desk that Matt Damon was actually taking over the reins again for the “Bourne” saga films, it made not only my day, but it made millions of motion picture fans want to stand up and applaud! Let's face it, Damon is the only actor born to play that superman-type character who can out-think,...

HOLLYWOOD—They will all be there in alphabetical order, 52 crowned representatives who signed their names to a map of the United States, each doing a little walk down the runway and announcing the title of their pageant platform—whether gender or social issue or health advocacy. The difference: this year marks Miss America's 95th anniversary. The history of the pageant...

HOLLYWOOD—Anyone who plays video games might be well aware of the hit game "Hitman." In 2007, the video game got the big screen treatment with Timothy Olyphant playing the notable character Agent 47. Flash forward to 2015, and we have “Hitman: Agent 47,” a reboot of sorts with a fresh face in Rupert Friend who portrays Agent 47. He’s...
