Julia Fox Dominates Surprising and Sexy Pitch-Black Rom-Com PVT CHAT: Fantasia Fest Review
This review is part of our Fantasia Festival 2020 coverage. The Pitch: Jack (Peter Vack) is a lonely boy in the big city. He lives in a rundown apartment—the only kind anyone can afford in New York City–where his windows are duct-taped over and his day-to-day involves either bowls of Maruchan ramen or online poker games. But he also engages in BDSM scenes with a number of cam girls, and one in particular has caught his eye. Enter Scarlet (Julia Fox), who dominates Jack from afar, making him a human ashtray as smoke billows out from her big beautiful lips. As time ticks away and more and more money is dropped, Jack and Julia begin to connect on a deeper level, a connection that sets both parties up for twists that audiences will never see coming. I’ll Always Love You New York: With PVT CHAT...
Robert Pattinson is The Batman in Nirvana-Soundtracked First Trailer: Watch
Warner Bros. closed out DC Fandome on Saturday night with their highly anticipated panel for Matt Reeves’ The Batman. As expected, the event saw our most comprehensive look at the forthcoming re-imagining, which stars Robert Pattinson as The Dark Knight. Gorgeously soundtracked to Nirvana’s dour “Something in the Way”, the film’s first trailer reveals a Gotham City awash in the kind of realism that once fueled Christopher Nolan’s universe. Yet unlike his trilogy, Reeves’ vision carries a more dystopian, punk rock edge that feels like a DIY deconstruction of Frank Miller’s Year One (though, according to Reeves, the story actually takes place in the second year of Bruce Wayne’s life as Batman). Story-wise, it appears there’s a creepy murder mystery that’s sending Jeffrey Wright’s Commis...
Chance the Rapper Hopes Megan Thee Stallion ‘Gets Justice’ After Shooting Incident

You shot me and you got your publicist and your people going to these blogs lying,” she said during an Instagram Live on Aug. 20. “Stop lying. Why lie? I don’t unders...

Is Luke Bryan Becoming an Underwear Model?
He has a new album, he’s back on ‘Idol’ and now he’s teaming up with an iconic underwear brand. Luke Bryan got a little nervous when his wife, Caroline, opened a package of underwear Jockey sent him. The country couple, newly announced as brand ambassadors, unboxed some Jockey goodies for a comical campaign spot — and even though Bryan insisted he’s “been working out,” he wasn’t so sure about the thong. “Here’s your new go-to,” Caroline teased her husband, holding up a garment that would leave little to the imagination. “This is a prank, is what that is,” he playfully shot back in the clip, which was filmed in Nashville. (For the record, Bryan was all smiles about wearing the boxer briefs.) On Instagram, where the pair...

SCORPIONS Are ‘Making Progress’ On New Album
SCORPIONS drummer Mikkey Dee has posted a short video update from Peppermint Park Studios in Hannover, Germany, where he and his bandmates are rehearsing and doing pre-production for their upcoming studio album. Tentatively due in 2021, the disc will mark the German hard rock legends’ first release since 2017’s “Born To Touch Your Feelings – Best Of Rock Ballads”, which was an anthology of SCORPIONS‘ new and classic material. SCORPIONS originally intended to record the new album in Los Angeles with producer Greg Fidelman, whose previous credits include SLIPKNOT and METALLICA. However, because of the pandemic, most of the work so far had been done remotely, with Fidelman taking part via Zoom. In the video, which can be seen below, singer Klaus Meine says ...

Former WHITESNAKE, DIO and current THE DEAD DAISIES guitarist Doug Aldrich has paid tribute to Frankie Banali, who died earlier this week after a battle with pancreatic cancer. Earlier today, Aldrich posted an Instagram photo of the QUIET RIOT drummer and his wife, Regina Banali, and he included the following message: “R.I.P. Frankie.

TWISTED SISTER has paid tribute to Frankie Banali, who died earlier this week after a battle with pancreatic cancer. Earlier today, the members of TWISTED SISTER shared a photo that was taken when the QUIET RIOT drummer joined them for a two-song set in May 2016 at the Vegas Rocks!

Kanye West Presidential Campaign Blows Deadline, Rosie O’Donnell Asks Him To Take His Meds
Source: SAUL LOEB / Getty Kanye West’s alleged presidential campaign just hit a major snag. Yeezy missed a campaign donation deadline, which hints that run for President is as struggle-filled as anyone with sense predicted. If you’ve been following Yeezy, and his album release dates, you know that missed deadlines have become the norm. That doesn’t fly when you’re running for office. Reports TMZ: Kanye, the presidential candidate, is required by FEC rules to file a financial report if he raises or spends $100k on his campaign. The filing deadline was August 20, but according to an FEC official … the agency hasn’t received it. So this means one of 2 things, and neither is good for Kanye — either he missed the filing deadline or he didn’t raise $100k … and how do you run for Prez if you can’...
