Adele Postpones Concert Dates Due to Illness


Bad news for the good folks out west: Due to laryngitis, Adele has been forced to cancel five dates on her current North American tour.

A statement on the singer's website reads:


Adele - Rolling in the Deep (Live)

She was diagnosed last Thursday in Minneapolis, MN, where doctors ordered immediate rest and postponement of that night's engagement at First Avenue. Adele performed on Saturday evening in Denver, CO (Ogden Theater) which proved too early a return to the stage. Adele’s show last Sunday evening in Salt Lake City, UT was postponed last minute when her illness worsened. Adele has also been forced to postpone shows in Vancouver, BC (Orpheum Theatre) on May 31, Seattle, WA on June 1 and Portland, OR on June 3.

The tour will resume on June 4 in San Francisco, CA.

Keep an eye out for news of rescheduled shows. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

'Hangover Part II' Stars Promise 'A Lot More Comedy' In Sequel

'It was just utter excitement to play these characters again,' Bradley Cooper tells MTV News.

Given the incredible box-office success of 2009's mega-hit comedy "The Hangover," it seemed as though a future installment of the outlandish antics of "Wolf Pack" members Alan, Stu and Phil would be inevitable. Which brings us to "The Hangover Part II," which is opening in theaters this weekend.

MTV News caught up with the men behind the magic recently, actors Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis, who not only explained Cooper's head-shaving skills, but also revealed that the main castmembers were originally hesitant to venture into sequel territory.

"I think it was more excitement once we got the second script, which was really wonderful — actually stronger than the first one," Cooper said of getting the gang back together again. "It was just utter excitement to play these characters again and hopefully deliver a movie where fans will be excited to see what happened. We get to see where Alan lives, we get to see Stu progress to two years, Phil as well, so I think it was just exciting to hopefully provide a lot more comedy for people who liked the first one."

Helms has also said that there was some hesitancy to try and make lightning strike twice in a second film.

"We had no idea that 'The Hangover' would do what it did, so we were all kind of blown away," Helms told us at a New York screening of the film. "But then very quickly a conversation for a sequel started, and we were all kind of like, 'I don't know.' And then Todd showed us the script, and it was amazing, so we were like, 'Yeah, let's do that.' "

Regarding what audiences can expect from "Hangover Part II," Helms said to expect a bit more of the same.

"[It's] disturbing, horrifying, unnerving," he said. "Oh, and also hilarious. I forgot that ... Lots of craziness happened on set, and you'll see all of that in the movie."

Ivanka Trump: Pregnant, Posing Like Playboy Bunny

This pregnant Ivanka Trump Playboy-style shot taken for, of all places, Harper's Bazaar (which also features Britney Spears this month) is a little unusual.

On the one hand, the picture accompanying their Ivanka interview is just strange. Why the Playboy juxtaposition? On the other, however, it's gorgeous.

Pose on top of a building? Check. Flawless hair and makeup? Check. Beautiful smile? Check. Great heels? Check. Perfect baby bump? Adorable check.

Pregnant Ivanka Trump

Donald Trump sure generates a lot of controversy, but here's one thing he created (by some miracle of genetics) that everyone can appreciate.

Amber Rose Lashes Out at "Negative BS" of Vibe Magazine


Amber Rose didn't ask for this life, people.

The rumored fiancee of Wiz Khalifa is (somehow) featured on the latest cover of Vibe. But that doesn't mean she's thrilled with the accompanying article, which details her split from Kanye West.

Amber Rose Vibe Cover

An excerpt from the piece reads that Rose and West's relationship "took a turn in Hawaii," mostly because Kanye rented out a music studio and pretty much refused to leave.

“[Amber] was being obnoxious in the studio like, ‘What the fuck? I wanna fucking eat,’” says an anonymous source. “Kanye got so mad because here he is trying to record and she keeps talking about, ‘Let’s go back to the house, I wanna f-ck. We haven’t f-cked in two days.’ I left the room for 10 minutes and when I came back he [told her], ‘Yo get the f-ck up out of here!’ She left the room crying."

Rose, however, sees things differently.

Soon after this issue hit newsstands, the short-haired model unleashed a Twitter rant that called out the publication for it's "negative bullshit." She wrote:

Just read "my" interview in @VibeMagazine half of the story was untrue & ridiculous! Yall don't give a f-ck that I have a Mom & Family thats gonna read that fake ass shit I gave yall a truthful interview & Yall f##ked me. I'm so sick of keeping my mouth shut I didn't ask for this life it was handed to me I was nothing but nice to everyone I spoke to @ Vibe.

Wait, why is Amber so angry? Didn't the source above make it clear that she likes getting f-cked?

'Twilight' Director Weighs In On Kristen Stewart's MTV Movie Awards Nods

Catherine Hardwicke says a tie would be 'safest solution' for Stewart's dual nominations in Best Kiss category.
By Jocelyn Vena

Earlier this month, we asked whether "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" would rule the 2011 MTV Movie Awards. Well, that question will finally be answered on Sunday night when the show goes live from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Los Angeles with "SNL" star Jason Sudeikis serving as host.

The third "Twilight" flick is up for eight Golden Popcorn statues this year, and given the series' past record, Twilighters probably don't have to worry too much about its chances. The director of the first "Twilight" flick, Catherine Hardwicke, says she is not surprised that people are still as frenzied about the movies as they were back in 2008.

"Well, I think it's great. I love it that people are so passionate about it and that people are really into it and following the characters," she told MTV News when we chatted with her about the June 14 DVD release of "Red Riding Hood," which she also directed. "I think it's a great tribute, obviously, to what [author] Stephenie Meyer created. ... Rob and Kristen and everybody's been able to just keep it going and keep people loving it all this time, and, of course, all the directors, everybody. I think it's awesome. It's great."

Stewart is nominated in the Best Kiss category for locking lips with both Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson. So which kiss does the director think she should win for? "Maybe it can be a tie? That would be perfect! I think [that's] the safest solution to this problem," she laughed.

Check out everything we've got on "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse."

Hangover Part 2 Cast and Director Discuss the Comedy

The Hangover 2 castThe Wolf Pack's back but this time they're waking up in Bangkok without a clue as to why in The Hangover sequel, The Hangover Part 2. Writer/director Todd Phillips and co-writers Craig Mazin and Scot Armstrong stick closely to the formula that propelled the original 2009 comedy to the top spot as the most successful R-rated comedy in history, moving the action from Vegas to Thailand but keeping the premise pretty much the same. Stu (Ed Helms), Phil (Bradley Cooper) and Alan (Zach Galifianakis) come to after what's apparently been a wild night of partying only to find themselves in a dingy hotel room in an unfamiliar city with a severed finger, one new facial tattoo, one bald head, a monkey, and Mr Chow (Ken Jeong). And just as with the first film, it'll take most of The Hangover Part 2 before they understand what they were up to while they were completely wasted and out of control.

Together for a press conference in support of the Warner Bros Pictures comedy, writer/director Phillips, Cooper, Galifianakis, and Helms talked about the challenges of making the sequel, shooting in Thailand, working with an adorable scene-stealing monkey, and the possibility of a third Hangover:

Brad Pitt Talks Marriage; Is It Time?


In the movie Tree of Life, Brad Pitt plays a demanding father in the 1950s.

Such a role has prompted the A-lister to open about his personal life, specifically the future of his relationship with Angelina Jolie. Might they actually tie the knot?

"The kids ask about marriage," he told USA Today recently. "It's meaning more and more to them. So it's something we've got to look at.”


The Tree of Life Trailer

Forget Shiloh, Maddox and company. It's clear who would be most affected by an eventual Brangelina union: Kim Kardashian! Pitt and Jolie finally walking down the aisle would bump her impending marriage to Kris Humphries on to the back pages.

So we know how Kim would feel about that development. What about you? Should Brad and Angelina get married?

MTV Movie Awards Mania Kicks Off With Sneak Peek Week

Stars of 'Fright Night,' 'The Help' and more stop by next week for live interviews and exclusive clips.
By Eric Ditzian

Each year, we jam 12 months' worth of movie magic into just one day for the MTV Movie Awards. This time around, there's simply too much Golden Popcorn goodness to contain, so we're opening up things with a full five days of cinematic treats that we call MTV Movie Awards Sneak Peek Week.

Starting on Monday, May 30, and running through Friday, June 3, we'll be bringing you exclusive looks at some of this summer's hottest films, including "Fright Night," "Horrible Bosses" and more. Each night at 11 p.m. ET, we'll welcome a film's cast onto MTV to present an exclusive clip. Then you can continue the live conversation with the stars online, as our own Josh Horowitz hosts an extended chat with the talent. As always, you'll have the chance to ask the stars your own questions; just tweet at @MTVNews using the hashtag #SPW.

It's all building up to the Movie Awards themselves, which will be hosted by Jason Sudeikis and air live on Sunday, June 5, at 9 p.m. ET from the Gibson Amphitheatre in Universal City, California.

On Monday, we'll be sitting down with "Fright Night" star Christopher Mintz-Plasse and director Craig Gillespie for an early glimpse at this horror remake. Mintz-Plasse and Anton Yelchin play high school seniors who get pulled into their neighbor's creepy world, eventually finding out that the stranger (Colin Farrell) is a vampire preying on the town.

The next night, the stars and director of "The Art of Getting By," a Sundance fave earlier this year, will be stopping by. Emma Roberts, Michael Angarano, Elizabeth Reaser and director Gavin Wiesen will introduce a clip, then stick around to discuss their indie about a lonely student (Freddie Highmore) and the unlikely friendship he strikes up with Roberts' charismatic and complicated teen girl.

Wednesday brings us what's sure to be one of the funniest comedies of the summer. "Horrible Bosses" director Seth Gordon will present an exclusive clip before diving into a chat about how Jason Bateman and his onscreen cohorts hatch a plan to kill their nasty workplace superiors.

Then on Thursday, Emma Stone and Bryce Dallas Howard will jump into the action in support of "The Help." Based on the #1 New York Times best-seller, the film stars Stone as an unlikely civil-rights activist in '60s-era Mississippi.

Finally on Friday, the folks behind action-comedy "30 Minutes or Less" will bring Sneak Peek Week to a close. Stars Aziz Ansari, Michael Peña and director Ruben Fleischer will be on hand for the festivities, and stars Jesse Eisenberg and Danny McBride will deliver a special message for fans. The flick follows Eisenberg's pizza delivery boy, who's kidnapped and forced to rob a small-town bank.

After this week-long warm-up, the main event kicks off on Sunday, June 5. At this year's Movie Awards, "Eclipse" (eight nominations) will be facing off against "Inception" (seven noms) and "Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows: Part 1" (six noms). Voting in all the categories, from Best Kiss to Best Fight to Best Scared-as-S**t Performance and beyond, is currently under way over at MovieAwards.MTV.com. Voting is set to close on June 4. But voting for Best Movie will stay open through the show itself, meaning you have the chance to affect the night's biggest winner up until the very last minute.

The 20th annual MTV Movie Awards air live Sunday, June 5, at 9 p.m. ET.

Celebrity Hair Affair: Brooklyn Decker

Wait... Brooklyn Decker has hair on top of her head?!? We've never noticed this before, as our eyes were also distracted by other body parts on this model.

You can see what we mean, right?

But we've been alerted to this fact today because the wife of tennis star Andy Roddick chopped 10 inches off her locks and debuted a new trend, according to stylist Ted Gibson: "Brooklyn’s updated, modern bob is on trend for 2011. Shorter hair can be sexy, confident and super modern, and I think hair that is too long isn’t chic or fashionable right now."

Do you agree?

'Hunger Games' Casts Lenny Kravitz As Cinna

'When I saw Lenny's work in 'Precious,' I was just knocked out,' director Gary Ross says.
By Kara Warner

The buzzworthy big-screen adaptation of Suzanne Collins' dystopian best-seller "The Hunger Games" has added yet another highly anticipated cast member: Lenny Kravitz will play creative, kindhearted stylist Cinna.

Director Gary Ross said of the casting decision, "When I saw Lenny's work in 'Precious,' I was just knocked out. It was quiet and strong and understated and openhearted; all qualities which define this character. I'm really looking forward to this ride."

Cinna is the stylist for District 12 tributes Katniss and Peeta. Hunger Games stylists are responsible for presenting their tributes in complex costumes and ensembles that reflect characteristics of the tributes' native districts, as well as the personalities of the young men and women to which the stylist is assigned. Cinna is one of the few calming presences in Katniss' life, as well as one of the few people she can trust.

Naturally, Kravitz is best known for his music career — he won the Best Male Rock Vocal Performance Grammy four years in a row from 1999 to 2002, breaking the record for most wins in that category and most consecutive wins in one category — with tracks like "Are You Gonna Go My Way," "Fly Away," "American Woman," and "Again." Over the last few years, however, Kravitz has dipped his multitalented toe into the world of acting, his breakout role being that of compassionate and encouraging Nurse John in "Precious."

Kravitz joins a long list of high-profile stars, including Woody Harrelson as Haymitch Abernathy, Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta Mellark, Liam Hemsworth as Gale Hawthorne, Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinkett and Wes Bentley as Seneca Crane.

'Hangover Part II' Cheat Sheet: Everything You Need To Know

With the comedy sequel premiering on Thursday (May 26), we prepare you for what to expect when the 'Hangover' boys head to Bangkok.
By Eric Ditzian

" 'The Hangover' was lightning in a bottle," director Todd Phillips told us back in September of his $467 million-grossing comedy. "You can't judge other successes or other movies based on it."

Well, what if you just so happen to catch that lightning again? And what if, it turns out, you managed to bottle a whole lot more this time? Then can we do some comparing and contrasting with the original? Perhaps even Phillips wouldn't object at this point, with some industry insiders suggesting that "The Hangover Part II" could reel in more than $120 million domestically over the five-day Memorial Day holiday weekend. No R-rated film in history has opened to more than $100 million in box-office receipts.

So how did Phillips & Co. reach this ultra-lucrative point? To understand that, we have to flash all the way back to before the June 2009 release of the original "Hangover," when the film was testing so well in early screenings that Warner Bros. started making plans for a sequel. Just after the flick opened to $45 million, another "Hangover" was officially a go. Where the filmmakers went from there is something you'll find out below in another MTV News cheat sheet: everything you need to know about "The Hangover Part II."

Sobering Up "We were thinking of sequel ideas when we were shooting, which sounds cocky, but we were doing it more because it was just fun to talk about ideas while hanging out on the set," Phillips told us in June 2009. "Two weeks ago I was saying, 'Let's see how it works out.' Now that the movie has really connected, it's something we're doing for sure."

The question was, would all four stars — Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis, Ed Helms and Justin Bartha — return for a new adventure? And how would Phillips spin another "Hangover" story after a ridiculous, couldn't-possibly-happen-twice tale set in Las Vegas? By December of that year, Phillips seemed to have his answer — he just wasn't going to let the secret get out. "It doesn't take place in Vegas, but it's certainly the same characters," he revealed.

Then Phillips and his team kept their heads down and worked on a script — one which, we found out nearly a year later, would take the Wolf Pack to Thailand for the wedding of Helms' character, Stu. True to Galifianakis' word, shooting kicked off in the fall of 2010.

Glug, Glug, Glug Our first peek at the "Hangover Part II" production came in October 2010, with a shot of the boys in an airport (Ontario doubling for LAX) on their way to Southeast Asia. That same month, news broke that Mel Gibson had signed on for a brief cameo as a tattoo artist. But after cast protests reportedly cropped up, the controversial actor was dropped from the film and Liam Neeson was hired to take over the role. (Neeson, in turn, was eventually replaced by Nick Cassavetes). "We just had a long talk about it, I explained it," Phillips told us of his conversation with Gibson to let him know about the recasting. "He certainly understood, you know. He wasn't happy, but he certainly wasn't upset. I mean, it just was kind of a bummer because I think he understood the intention of the casting and the role."

Production wrapped up on January 1 of this year, and a teaser trailer dropped the next month. "It's truly a teaser, so it might end up frustrating more than solving questions," Phillips told us shortly before the promo arrived. He wasn't kidding: We could tell that the pals were in Thailand, that things were not turning out very well for them and that Helms somehow got stamped with a Mike Tyson-style facial tattoo. But other than that, plot info was hard to come by. A full "Hangover Part II" trailer appeared in April, giving us more information about the storyline. The shenanigans get started after Stu's rehearsal dinner, when one beachside drink leads to the guys waking up in a shady hotel. Stu's soon-to-be brother-in-law is missing; Ken Jeong's hilarious gangster, Mr. Chow, is hanging out; and everyone has to get back to the resort before the wedding ceremony is set to begin. Helms told us. "Oh, and also hilarious. I forgot that ... Lots of craziness happened on set, and you'll see all of that in the movie."

Cooper declared that he believes the second film is funnier than the first, which made any initial nervousness secondary to his enthusiasm. "I think it was more excitement once we got the second script, which was really wonderful — actually stronger than the first one," Cooper said. "It was just utter excitement to play these characters again and hopefully deliver a movie where fans will be excited to see what happened. We get to see where [Galifianakis'] Alan lives, we get to see Stu progress to two years, [my] Phil as well, so I think it was just exciting to hopefully provide a lot more comedy for people who liked the first one."

That's exactly what Phillips is hoping too. "I think there are very few sequels that have been made that live up to or exceed their first film. 'The Godfather' is the first one," he told us. "We had always planned on calling it 'The Hangover 2,' and when we finished the script, I changed the cover page and wrote 'The Hangover Part II,' because I think the film lives up to or exceeds the first one. It was very much a nod to 'The Godfather.' "

Kim Kardashian and Fiance Make First Public Appearance


With her mother's approval, and with the celebrity gossip world talking about her like never before, Kim Kardashian officially debuted her engagement and her fiance in Monaco last night.

The reality star and Kris Humphries attended the Amber Fashion Show at the Meridien Beach Plaza hotel in Monte Carlo yesterday, the sort of event Kris had likely never even heard of before hooking up with Kim.

In Monaco

As you can see, the couple were seated at table number-23. Which is appropriate. That's the number of millions this wedding special could rake in for the family.

How long do you think this union will last?

WHO RAN IT?!: Beyonce Vs. The Dream ('1+1' Demo VS. Final)

You heard Beyonce's new "1+1" song as she performed it last week on the "Idol" finale.  But now, the demo of the track performed by The Dream (who also wrote the song), has hit the net.  And his version was a different melody and a different title, called "Nothing But Love."

 

Decide which version you love best when you read on...

Before The Dream handed over this track to Beyonce, he sang it differently on the demo.  Beyonce changed the title to "1+1" and the melody.  So decide which version of vocals you like best.

Blockbuster Closes 146 Canadian Stores, Slashes Rental Prices

Filed under: ,




Blockbuster is slashing rental prices as the company prepares to shutter 146 bankrupt Canadian stores.

As of this weekend, thousands of movies can be rented for 99 cents a day, and customers can also rent new releases for $2.99 for one day, with each additional day costing 99 cents. Previously, renters were stuck paying $4.99 for a three-day rental.

"Our customers are seeking a better value. We've answered with new pricing and the flexibility of single day rentals," said Michael Kelly, president of Blockbuster. "Our new pricing gives our customers the best of both worlds: access to the latest releases -- many 28 days before Netflix and Redbox -- and the most movies at low prices."

'Hangover Part II' Stars Talk Bradley Cooper's Head-Shaving Skills

'I did such a good job shaving his head they had to mess it up more,' actor tells MTV News of Zach Galifianakis' new look.

Those crazy boys of summer are back. We're talking, of course, about Bradley Cooper, Zach Galifianakis and Ed Helms, stars of the highly anticipated "Hangover Part II." At the film's NYC premiere earlier this week, the guys told us about the "chaos" of their pre-release press blitz, and now, MTV News takes you inside the chaos of filming the "Hangover" sequel.

When talking about how the photo montages at the ends of both films were compiled, Cooper and Galifianakis ended up in a back-and-forth about Cooper's head-shaving skills.

"It runs a similar course as the filming of the movie," Cooper said when asked about when the photos for the montages were taken. "We would allocate time in the shooting day to do stills throughout the movie, so at the end, you have all the stills, but it's not like we have two days and we shoot all the stills; it's throughout the whole film."

With regard to Galifianakis' shaved head, which occurs during a scene in the film, we wanted to know if the actual clipping was performed by Cooper.

"Yeah," Cooper said. "I did a nice job."

"I mean, it's pretty easy," Galifianakis pointed out.

"It's not that easy," Cooper protested. "Your ears are very tight to your face."

"Bradley, everybody has a template. I mean, look at that picture," Galifianakis said, pointing to the film's promo poster, which features a photo of Galifianakis with a perfectly buzzed coif. "What I'm saying is, it's so easy to shave someone's head."

"I'm telling you, I did such a good job shaving his head they had to mess it up more, right? Tell them," Cooper insisted. "Tell them, Zach."

"Yes. That's true," Galifianakis said, relenting. "He did such a great job they had to mess up my hair more."

"Thank you," Cooper said, sounding pleased to receive the recognition.

Howard famously appeared in last year's Eclipse in the role of Victoria, which was controversially stripped from Rachelle Lefevre after the first two Twilight films.

A few years after she became a mom, Howard wrote a candid account of her battle with postpartum depression. It's something many moms can relate to.

Hopefully, upon announcing her latest pregnancy, she's in a better place with it and has all the support she needs. Congratulations to the happy family.

Celebrity Hair Affair: Jennifer Lawrence

Jennifer Lawrence was nominated for an Oscar as a blonde.

But she'll truly strike it big as a brunette.

The 20-year old actress was forced to dye her hair in order to get into character for The Hunger Games, as any reader of that novel trilogy knows Katniss Everdeen has very dark roots. You can see the transformation on the cover of EW and also in one of the photos below.

Alan Rickman's Fond Farewell to 'Harry Potter'



In a move more befitting Albus Dumbledore than the guy who killed him, Empire magazine recently published Alan Rickman's heartfelt goodbye letter to J.K. Rowling and the family of actors who knew him best as Severus Snape.

With the release of 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II' less than two months away, it looks like everyone's prepping themselves for the final showdown and the end of an era. Hard to believe that it's been 10 whole years since the release of 'Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone,' and we can only imagine the kind of bonds that must have formed between everyone involved.

Hit the jump to read Rickman's swan song.

Did Lee DeWyze Snub Scotty McCreery, American Idol?


In the wake of Scotty McCreery's American Idol triumph, the country is asking multiple questions today?

  1. Did he deserve to win? It's debatable.
  2. Are Lauren and Scotty dating? No.
  3. Did Lee DeWyze snub the show last night? Sort of.

Typically, the previous winner ends up on the stage to congratulate the new champ and hand him/her a trophy. But DeWyze was seated in the fifth row at the finale, and Ryan Seacrest never even mentioned his name.

What happened?

The 10th American IdolNinth Idol

According to producer Nigel Lythgoe, DeWyze refused to be a good sport. The producer Tweeted today: "I was so upset Lee DeWyze wouldn't present the winners trophy to Scotty. Especially as he's been on the show this Season. I guess he was shy."

But the season nine title holder says it's the opposite: he was never asked to participate!

"I was not asked to be involved in the Finale," Lee wrote in response. "It wasn't until about 2 minutes before they announced that Nigel had approached me and asked if he could "borrow" me for a second. I didnt feel a last second jump on stage was appropriate. It was Scotty's moment."

True. But it's Lythgoe's show.

What do you think, readers? Is there a real beef here? Or was it simply a case of misunderstanding?
