He says, “They’re cool. They don’t care about the media, they don’t care about being famous, the money � they’re young and having fun.”

Fcc's Test Market Doesn't Know It's Being Tested

Wilmington, DE may be the first city in the nation to switch from analog to digital-only television on Sept. 8, but only 18 percent of the residents of the city are aware that the switch is coming early, according to a survey by the National Association of Broadcasters. Wilmington has been singled out as a test market by the FCC to determine what problems, if any, might occur when the nation as a whole is required to make the switch to all-digital next February 17.

Thurman Stalker Is A 'Wonderful Son'

The mother of Uma Thurman's stalker insists her son can move on and still has a "bright future" after being convicted of harassing the actress. Jack Jordan, 37, escaped jail this week (beg02Jun08), despite being found guilty of stalking and harassing the star in New York City in 2005. He was ordered to stay away from her for five years and placed on three years probation. Jordan is back living with his mother and father at their luxurious Maryland home - with his mother Beth convinced he can change his ways. She tells the New York Post, "Jack plans to move on with his life. He's a wonderful son and we're here to support him. He's got a bright future. He's well educated. He can do anything he wants."

Andy Abraham - Eurovision Line-up Complete With Portugal Back In

The final line-up for this year's Eurovision contest has been confirmed.

After the second semi-final in Belgrade, Portugal's Vania Fernandes was selected to perform on Saturday, the first time in five years the country has made it through to the final.

Sweden, Denmark and Iceland all made it through to the final also.

With the final 25 performers now selected, Britain's Andy Abraham was chosen to perform second in tomorrow night's song contest in Serbia.

Macedonia, Bulgaria, Switzerland and Ireland all failed to make the grade after the two semi-final contests this week.

Abraham will be looking to improve on last year's result which saw Scooch finish 23rd out of 24 entries after picking up just 19 points for their song Flying the Flag (for You).

The BBC will once again broadcast the annual event with Terry Wogan providing his usual dead-pan commentary.

Kobe Bryant
A Boston Celtic's fan is ripping a page from the Tony Parker how-not-to-play book, by creating cut outs of Vanessa Curry, the former Laker's cheerleader Bryant reportedly hooked up with. Kobe denies the alleged misdeed and has fired off a legal letter to the website that spread the rumor.

Anywho, at tonight's game, Boston fans are gonna hold up lots of pics of Vanessa. Will it distract Kobe? We're thinkin'....he's used to it.

Stay tuned!

'Sisterhood' release date moved up

Getting out two days early in front of a packed weekend





Warner Bros. has moved up the release date for its ensemble flick "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" two days, to Aug. 6.


Going out on a Wednesday will help "Pants" get out in front of a busy late-summer weekend. And more importantly, it will provide additional time for positive word of mouth to circulate on a pic that's been playing well in pre-release screenings, Warners distribution president Dan Fellman said.


"It gives us a couple days of extra summer play time," Fellman said. "So it just looked like a smart thing to do."


Two rival wide releases are set unspool Aug. 8 -- Sony's Seth Rogen starrer "Pineapple Express" and Lionsgate's Little League drama "The Perfect Game." Disney tried a similar Wednesday release with its "Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement," which unspooled Aug. 11 and rung up an extra $8 million ahead of the following weekend.

Scarlett Johansson - Johansson Eyes Music Festival Debut

SCARLETT JOHANSSON would love to display her vocal talents at a music festival - if only she could combat her stage fright.

The actress released her debut album Anywhere I Lay My Head this week (begs19May08) - and is so pleased with the disc of Tom Waits covers, she wants the chance to play them live.

But she'd have to conquer her stage fear first.

She says, "It would be sad to not get everybody (band members) together. Whether it's at a festival or somewhere that's kind of fun.

"(But) I have horrible stage fright, so it would have to be overcome. People approach me (about playing live) and my usual answer is, 'Ah, I'll think about that'.

"When I do think about it, I start to get really sweaty and uncomfortable and itchy around the neck."
