Hunger Games' Josh Hutcherson Talks Readying for Sequel
Hunger Games fans, rejoice! The highly anticipated film hasn't even come out yet, and things are already looking good for the flick's sequel Catching Fire.
"They want to wait and see how this comes out and does and how much fans like it, and then hopefully we're going to start on the next one next fall," Josh Hutcherson told us at the People's Choice Awards in L.A.
But are Hutcherson's Hunger Games costars Jennifer Lawrence and Liam Hemsworth on board for another flick? "Oh, for sure," he said. "What I've seen of the first one I'm in love with, so I'm on board for however many they want to make."
Hutcherson says he hasn't seen the final cut of the flick. "I've seen little bits," he dished. So does Hutcherson think Hunger Games has what it takes to be a bigger box office hit than Twilight?
"I don't know," he laughed. "Twilight is huge, man, and has a lot of fans. We'll see... It's an entirely different world and also we're about surviving the games and family and loyalty."
"I was never really a Twilight fanatic so I don't really know that firsthand, but I think people are really passionate about it," Hunger Games' Leven Rambin told us. "People keep reminding me it's the most anticipated movie of the year. It's so exciting for me."
The Grammys 2012!
NEW YORK — Foo Fighters and Bruno Mars both have six Grammy nominations, including album of the year. And now both acts will perform at the award show.
The Recording Academy announced Thursday that Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj, Jason Aldean and Kelly Clarkson will also hit the stage at 54th annual Grammy Awards on Feb. 12.
Kanye West leads with seven nominations. Adele is also up for six Grammys, including album, song and record of the year. She's currently recovering from surgery on her vocal cords and her sophomore album, "21," was last year's top seller.
Other multiple nominees include Skrillex, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Chris Brown, Bon Iver and Mumford & Sons.
The Grammys will air live on CBS from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
Groom's Bieber Ode To Bride Surprisingly Great
Choreographed wedding surprises are all the rage these days. From a dance party breaking out in the middle of the ceremony to the typically tender father-bride dance turning into a high energy medley, wedding are getting all shook up. See Video!
But we must confess that this latest number might be our favorite, simply for the song chosen. Groom Brian surprises bride Emily with a Justin Bieber tribute at Continental Club in Orange Park, Fla. Now, say what you want about Bieber, he's got his millions of fans, and good for him. However, grown men aren't really part of those millions, so the groom breaking out a dance with his groomsmen to the tune of "Baby" is pretty bold. Also hilariously awesome. Just watch and enjoy.
You have to hand it to the fellas, the choreography was solid, the props were a nice touch (especially the mop hair) and there weren't any noticeable slip-ups. You can't help but be impressed, not just with the effort, but a production that stands up there with all of the wedding videos that have hit the web in the last year.
And let's not forget the self-deprecation and confidence it takes to jam out to Bieber on a film that will be played for the rest of your marriage. This video isn't going anywhere, like the vows said, for better or worse.
Harry Connick Jr.'s musical to close on Broadway
NEW YORK (AP) — Harry Connick Jr.'s latest Broadway venture is ending earlier than he hoped.
Producers of "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever" said Thursday that the musical will play its final performance on Jan. 29.
When it closes, it will have played 29 preview and 57 regular performances. The production has songs by Burton Lane and Alan Jay Lerner that made its debut on Broadway in 1965 and was adapted into a 1970 film starring Barbra Streisand and Yves Montand.
The musical got mostly poor reviews when it opened last month. Last week, it took in $584,711 at the box office, or only about 42 percent of its potential.
