Nothing like a role in Twilight to break you into show business. That’s the case for Ashley Greene, who had spent most of her time in Hollywood as a hostess in an L.A. restaurant prior to her fame-making role as Ashley Cullen. The Floridian native just finishing touring the country in ...

ABC has taped an interview Chris Brown for 20/20, according to the AP. GMA anchor Robin Roberts conducted the interview, which is scheduled to air Dec. 11. Yes, Brown does indeed have a new album coming out right around then.

Express train to mash-up town, you guys. First up, what if Star Trek is secretly The A-Team?
I chuckled. But I liked this Scarface/Star Wars hybrid better. It contains adult language, so uh, viewer discretion is advised.
Somewhere, an episode of Cribs just got its wings.

Holy holly! Did you guys just see that? Santa whizzing by on a sleigh packed with Barbies and basketballs? A man and a woman falling into a snowbank and sharing an unexpected kiss? A group of orphans crooning “We Wish You A Merry Christmas” as the credits roll?
Oh, wait—I think I know what’s ...

I’ve always been somewhat of a board game purist. (Evidence: my reaction to Hasbro’s new-ish pimped-out version of Clue.) Yet, I’m not totally against Hasbro’s new SpongeBob SquarePants-centric Operation game, which allows you to dive inside the character and remove his ...

Paramount is planning a Dec. 29 launch of Paranormal Activity on DVD and Blu-ray – including the alternate ending not seen in theaters (in an unrated version of the film). If you loved Paranormal in cinemas, do you feel allegiance to that ending, or do you feel like you must see the alternate ...

You have to immediately like a costume designer who’ll admit that she’s wearing sweatpants while chatting with you from her Vancouver home. We phoned Tish Monaghan, who took over styling duties for The Twilight Saga: New Moon and Eclipse, to talk about how Edward ended up in a suit, ...

It’s as much of an annual tradition as turkey, football, and awkward family dynamics — the Thanksgiving weekend TV marathon. With Thursday and Friday behind you, why not head to the fridge, get some leftovers, and settle in to that nice groove in the sofa. And look, we’ve ...

Michael Sheen is best known for his roles as Tony Blair in The Queen and David Frost in Frost/Nixon. So it was a bit of a surprise that this serious actor, with a great ability to transform completely into real-life characters, would want a role in the frothy Twilight series. EW.com chatted with ...

We all have that deep dark corner of our DVRs, that bookmarked page on Hulu, those Netflix DVDs we’ve had for months — that show we’ve been waiting to binge on. It’s a long weekend, PopWatchers, and that means it’s time to get caught up on our favorites.

Strolling through the mall, driving to the movie theater, waiting for a table at dinner—it doesn’t matter where you go; the day after Thanksgiving begins the onslaught of holiday tunes.

“I am very unpredictable,” Beyonce said on last night’s concert special about her, and, uh, that is just not true. She is a lot of things — talented, beloved, a non-stop hit-maker — but she’s also one of our most reliable celebrities. We count on her to be ...

Ah, the formerly-dreaded Survivor recap episode. We used to mock it even more than gratuitous Palm Pre product placement. But then something unusual happened during the Tocantins season. The recap episode became less of a recap and more of a collection of deleted scenes and storylines. And some ...
