The Cincinnati Pops Orchestra has canceled a “Dukes of Hazzard” themed show due to the racist nature of the Confederate flag imagery. The stars of the series, John Schneider and Tom Wopat, have segued into musical careers since the show ended production in 1985. Schneider says the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra canceled a planned “Dukes”-themed appearance after contracts were signed because some in the community found the show racist and offensive.
Wait. Cincinnati supports an orchestra? The “Dukes of Hazzard” warrants a musical? Tom Wopat has a career?

Stephen Bochco has teamed with a website to produce a series of confessional short videos starring non actors on such topics as “my first time” and “my weird family.”
It’s wierd how Bochco could be so ahead of his time with Cop Rock, yet so behind the times with the played out “internet confessional” bit. Now if Bochco bought out a fledgling TV recap site, THAT would be true innovation.

CLips of legendary a-hole director David O. Russel and Lily Tomlin violently arguing on the set of I “Heart” Huckabees has surfaced on Youtube. They are a thosuand times more entertaining than the movie itself and the most entertaining thing Lily Tomlin has done in years.

Coke goes Kosher for passover! This news drove new-Jew Britney Spears and her Kabbalah

Naomi Campbell’s beau Terrence Howard asked a leggy blonde to pop the zits on his back with her teeth. Oooooookay. MSR reports, you decide… But we’ll help. You should decide that the world is going to hell when a NYC newspaper decides that this non-story, from the rotted mouth of a cabbie, with no corroboration or merit, warrants the ink/pixels spent on it. And you should also decide that if it takes 4 writers to report this stuff, that jumping off a bridge isn’t such a bad idea.

Thanks for the Terrence Howard snippet–I WAS eating yogurt at the time.
Comment #1 on 03.20.07 at 10:08 amThat Lily Tomlin video was priceless. Was that Jason Schwartzman who just sat there with his feet on the desk as Russell started throwing things around the set? It must have happened a lot if he didn’t even move until they cleared the set.
Comment #2 on 03.20.07 at 10:27 amI love in the Lily Tomlin Video that the poor person by the door that the crap gets flung towards remains in the tornando drill at school position for a while before looking to see if it is ok to move!
Comment #3 on 03.20.07 at 11:19 amI laughed my ass off at that stupid director freaking out because someone questioned his “vision”. Work in a restaurant sugar…EVERYONE questions everything. Get over it ya spoiled brat! Love that Lily Tomlin didn’t even flinch when he got in her face. Hardcore Bitch!!Love her MORE now.
Comment #4 on 03.20.07 at 11:45 amBest quote from a stars rep ever…
But a rep for Howard says it must have been a doppelganger, as Howard “was in New York but wasn’t in a taxi” LOL…he must walk everywhere.
Great clip! that movie sucked, watching that almost made it worth it
Comment #5 on 03.20.07 at 1:45 pmThat Lily Tomlin clip was gold. I agree, much better than the movie.
