SUPER BOWL HALFTIME SHOW: BEYONCE WILL JOIN COLDPLAY
The Super Bowl halftime show just got a little more interesting. Show sponsor Pepsi confirmed to Entertainment Tonight that Beyonce will join Coldplay during the Feb. 7th musical extravaganza at the big game.
The pairing isn’t complete unexpected since she’s featured on the song “Hymn for the Weekend” from the band’s new album, Head Full of Dreams.
According to previous reports, Bruno Mars is also expected to guest with Coldplay.
Both of this year’s guests have history with the Super Bowl. Bruno Mars headlined the halftime show in 2014, while Beyonce was top billed in 2013.
ALL IS NOT WELL WITH THE WALKING DEAD:
In a newly unsealed deposition given in his big profits lawsuit against AMC, ousted The Walking Dead creator Frank Darabont holds nothing back, blasting executives at the cable network for hiding in air-conditioned offices, explaining how he had to manage a crisis at the beginning of the second season of the hit zombie show and discussing the "concocted" reasons for his firing.
Darabont and his agents at CAA are pursuing claims that AMC breached his contract and deprived him of tens of millions of dollars in profits from the hit series by making a sweetheart deal licensing the show to itself. Most recently, the case has turned its attention to whether AMC rightfully reduced his profit share as he left the show in the middle of the second season. Darabont claims he rendered showrunner services on all second-season episodes.
In his deposition, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, Darabont talks about the early days of the show, saying that despite the massive ratings success of Walking Dead, AMC created budget problems for the series. (Read the court documents here.) - (STORY CREDIT - THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER)
SHERRI SHEPHERD:NO CHILD SUPPORT FROM ME
Sherri Shepherd really doesn't want to pay her estranged husband child support.
The former View co-host is taking her case to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, where she's asking a judge to put the kibosh on the $4,600-a-month payments she's been making to Lamar Sally for their son, who was born through a surrogate last year.
According to TMZ, Sherri is appealing because she believes the "first judge overstepped his boundaries in using a surrogacy contract to make her the mom...even though she's not biologically related to the child."
The gossip blog points out that Sherri spent nearly $100,000 to "bring their kid into the world, yet wants nothing to do with him." Lamar tells TMZ that "it's unfortunate one day the baby will be able to read the lengths Sherri went to in order to be out of his life."
STAR WARS CONTINUES TO BREAK BOX OFFICE RECORDS
“Star Wars: The Force Awakens”shattered another record on Wednesday as the highest grossing domestic film of all time.
The seventh installment in the sci-fi series has gone over the $760.5 million sales set by “Avatar” in its first 20 days of release, according to early box office numbers. The movie also crossed its $800 million mark at the international box office on Wednesday, but no international records have been set.
World-wide, “The Force Awakens” is the fourth highest-grossing movie of all time, placing behind “Jurassic World,” “Titanic” and “Avatar.” Officials are waiting to see how it performs in China, which could make the difference in whether it takes over the top spot internationally.
