Ellen DeGeneres Details COVID-19 Experience in First Show Back
Thanking those who reached out with kind words and support throughout her recovery, DeGeneres expressed her wish to have “hugged each and every one” of her fans. “That would have been dangerous and illegal, probably,” the host joked. The Ellen DeGeneres Show paused production in early Dec. on the final day of the show’s “Twelve Days of Giveaways” seasonal event. As a result, DeGeneres invited the same audience back to the show who missed out on their gifts in December. The host went on to recount the dramatic events on set the day she received her COVID-19 test result. While sitting in hair and makeup, the 62-year-old remembered her assistant Craig walking in to inform her that she had tested positive. “And then, everyone around me ran away,” DeGeneres said. “It’s funny, p...
Mariah Carey Reveals How COVID-19 Pandemic Has ‘Really Helped’ Her Voice
As for how she got so in the AF zone, Mariah said her pal Trey Lorenz liked to hang out and bust out their favorite impersonations, but she considers it more of an homage than an imitation. Anyway, that was not the most important voice-related tidbit that came up in the 90-plus minute first part of the chat. Carey also revealed that despite the difficulty of being locked down for much of the past year, the COVID-19 pandemic has somehow been good for her already peerless voice. “Honestly, for me this whole year with COVID and everything, not having to sing for my supper and travel around and not get the right amount of sleep or just be put on this thing where there’s a certain amount of stress, for me, that takes away a lot of stuff,” said Carey in the laid-back, wide-rang...

Nick Carter & Wife Lauren Expecting Baby No. 3: ‘Sometimes Life Blesses You With Little Surprises’
Kitt continued, “I thought I had a tumor because there was just no way that I could be pregnant, from just my medical history and the things that I did to ensure that I just had my two children.” Kitt revealed in 2015 during a pre-taped video package for Dancing With the Stars (when Carter was competing) that she had suffered a miscarriage. Carter shared o Twitter in 2018 that his wife, whom he married in 2014, went through another miscarriage and they had lost a baby girl.

Jimi Hendrix’s Brother, Niece Found in Contempt of Court for Violating Trademarks
Tina Hendrix tells Billboard that her family is “devastated and disappointed about the judge’s decision and I strongly feel that it was incorrect and unjust for several reasons.” The contempt ruling against Leon and Tina Hendrix follows a lengthy court battle that began in 2017 when Experience Hendrix LLC — the sole owner of the late rocker’s musical compositions, sound recordings, copyrights and trademarks — and Authentic Hendrix LLC, the licensing arm for Hendrix, filed an infringement case. Experience and Authentic Hendrix sued Leon Hendrix and a business associate for trademark infringement, deceptive acts and false advertising, among other claims.

The historic Capitol Studios in Hollywood, home to recordings by Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Bob Seger, Tony Bennett, Ray Charles and thousands of other artists, is undergoing some major changes.

Bette Midler Says Trump Will ‘Burn the White House Down’ Before Leaving Office
Ahead of the riot, Trump told a crowd of his supporters, who believe his claims that the election was stolen — since debunked by elections officials as well as the Justice Department — that he was going to walk down to the Capitol with them. He added, “You’ll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong.” He defended his speech as “totally appropriate” Jan. 12. Midler — an outspoken critic of the president — also wants others whom she believes helped fuel the riots held accountable, namely Rudy Giuliani, Rep. Mo Brooks of Alabama, and Donald Trump Jr. “Let’s discuss bringing charges against the incendiary traitors who spoke BEFORE #Trump on January 6,” she wrote. Karl R...
