David Chase On The Significance Of 'Not Fade Away'
"Sopranos" creator David Chase is transporting movie-goers back to the swinging '60s with his coming-of-age tale "Not Fade Away."
The film charts the highs and lows of a fledgling rock band formed by a group of friends in suburban New Jersey, and in keeping with the period, Chase and musical supervisor Steve Van Zandt (also of "Sopranos" fame) ensured the soundtrack was chockablock with groovy tunes by the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and James Brown. But with so much material to choose from, how did Chase land upon "Not Fade Away" (penned by Buddy Holly and later covered by the Rolling Stones) as the title?
"It occurred to me that this is a movie about the music of youth, that established youth culture and that some of the practitioners and greats of that music are already gone," Chase said. "They've already faded away, and more are going to continue to do that. I wanted to get this down before all that happened, and that they may fade away but the music wouldn't."
And indeed it hasn't, considering stars John Magaro and Jack Huston—both born two decades after the period—told MTV News that '60s tunes are among some of their favorites of all time.
"Not Fade Away," co-starring James Gandolfini and Bella Heathcote, is in theaters now.

With a Little Luck: A Novel
My good friend Caprice Crane's new book, With a Little Luck, is out today. Yay, Caprice!
It's gotten great reviews:
"Crane is one of the funniest writers of popular fiction around. The dialog (inner and outer) is laugh-out-loud, snort-inducing hilarious . . . Readers will want to cross their fingers and spit while throwing salt over their shoulders if it helps Berry reach her dreams. Highly recommended."
—Library Journal
"Fans of Stacy Ballis and Cara Lockwood will appreciate Crane's effortlessly funny style, which is often attempted in popular fiction but is rarely this well executed...Lighthearted and charmingly honest."
—Booklist
"[A] satisfying romantic comedy...[with] real character growth."
—Kirkus Reviews
And even better blurbs:
"Romantic, poignant and funny—this book is a lucky find for lit fans. Caprice Crane is a nimble and gifted storyteller."
—Diablo Cody, Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Juno
"A hilarious romp that oozes charm and giddy fun. Caprice Crane is a true talent."
—Molly Jong-Fast, author of The Social Climber's Handbook
"Witty, fast-paced, and sheer fun. Caprice Crane is a master of dialogue. Half the time I was reading this book I was smiling, which made me look like a crazy person on the subway."
—Jancee Dunn, author of Don’t You Forget About Me and Why Is My Mother Getting a Tattoo?
"Absolutely charming and hilarious."
—Missy Peregrym, star of the movie Stick It and ABC's Rookie Blue
"With a Little Luck scores in humor, head, and heart. In other words, it’s a perfect trifecta."
—Karyn Bosnak, author of 20 Times a Lady (soon to be the major motion picture What's Your Number?)
(Omg, who is that last fantastic blurber?) (I meant every word of it.)
And most importantly, she has the cutest dog ever (who likes to video chat with Bev):
Anyway, check it out, buy it—it's fantastic!

Lostprophets Frontman Charged With Sex Crimes Against Children
Unfortunately, sex crimes against children are a common thing, but when news of this sort makes the headlines, it usually involves some creepy school teacher or Catholic priest. That’s why we were shocked to learn that Ian Watkins, the lead singer of the British rock band Lostprophets, had been charged with sexual crimes against children. He’s being accused of conspiring to rape a one-year old girl and other heinous crimes.
According to Billboard, Watkins faces charges of conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with a female under 13 and possession/distribution of indecent images of children. Aside from the rape charges, the frontman was accused of two incidents of conspiring to engage in sexual activity with two young children, and possessing, making and distributing indecent images of children, and also animal pornography. And he’s not alone. Two women, aged 20 and 24, have also been charged along with Watkins. All are due in court on Wednesday in the Welsh capital, Cardiff. A lawyer for Watkins said that his client will deny the charges. But the police continue to build their case against him.
In November, the band canceled their tour of Russia and Japan due to a critical illness in the band’s family. Lostprophets formed in 1997. Their 2004 record Say Something was a hit in the U.S. And they also scored a No. 1 hit on Billboard’s Alternative Songs chart in 2004 with “Last Train Home.” They’ve opened for bands like Linkin Park and Deftones, and are very popular on the other side of the pond.

Jack White Didn’t Mean To Call Lady Gaga’s Music Meaningless
Jack White is not the first person to think poorly of Lady Gaga, and he definitely won’t be the last. But he’s not a regular Joe, so when he tells a major magazine that Gaga’s image has “no meaning behind it,” he’s going to make headlines, whether he likes it or not.
In a new interview with Esquire UK, White slammed Gaga, Twitter and the state of modern celebrity. He bashed the singer for being all “artifice,” and compared her music to a sound bite.
“It’s all image with no meaning behind it. You can’t sink your teeth into it. It’s a sound bite. It’s very of this age, because that’s what people want.”
White continue his attack by saying that only comedians should have Twitter because the site is all about one liners.
“You don’t want Gore Vidal telling you, ‘I’m doing my dishes right now.”
You don’t? Anyway, White also criticized today’s celebrities saying that the only goal of it is to “make yourself the lowest common denominator.”
After the magazine published his insults, White took some of it back. He wrote a statement on his website, blaming Esquire UK for twisting his words, and also called out NME for putting quotation marks where they don’t belong. He also mentioned that he thinks the new wave of journalism mutes artists, discouraging them from giving real, creative answers during interviews.
He wrote:
“I’d like to address the recent tabloidesque drama baiting by the press in regards to Lady Gaga. I never said anything about her music, or questioned the authenticity of her songs in any way. I was in a conversation about the drawbacks of image for the sake of image, and that it is popular nowadays to not question an image in front of you, but only to label it as “cool” or “weird” quickly and dispose of it. I don’t like my comments about lady gaga’s presentation being changed into some sort of negative critique of her music. If you’re going to try to cause drama, at least get the quotes right. I think journalists should also be held accountable for what they say. Especially publications like the NME who put whatever words they feel like between two quotation marks and play it off as a quote. Maybe somebody with more lawyers can take them to task, but i’ll just use the Internet and Twitter instead. I also think that kind of tabloid drama encourages artists to not express their opinions in the press, and instead give polite soundbites that don’t stimulate thought about creativity and the consumption of art in its many guises.
Peace to Lady Gaga and I fully congratulate and compliment her on her championing of gay rights issues and the momentum it’s given to help create change.”
White is right to say that some quote are taken out of context, but that’s why one must be careful with words, especially if you’re not a regular guy who likes beer and watches football like Mr. White.
What do you think? Do you agree with White?

The incident report, obtained by MTV News from the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, identified Jeffrey S. Hubbard as the vehicle's operator.</P><P>According to the report, Hubbard was operating the watercraft in Atlanta's Lake Lanier when he ran over two juveniles being towed on an inner tube by another boat at approximately 3:25 p.m. ET on Friday. Both of the injured children were flown to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston. While the incident report didn't identify any of the injured by name, it has been reported that 11-year-old Kyle Glover sustained a head injury and had been declared brain dead by doctors, but officials have <a href="http://www.ajc.com/news/reports-ushers-former-stepson-1473926.html">declined</a> to speak on his condition, citing privacy issues.

Glover's mother, Tameka Foster, <a href="http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2012/07/usher-stepson-kyle-glover-critical-condition-jet-ski-accident-tameka-foster">spoke</a> to RadarOnline, simply saying, "He's bad."</P><P>According to the site, the distraught mom also took to her Facebook page to send this message: "Kyle, You are strong.. You'll be saved I know it. I love you my baby. I need all #Prayers for my son! thanks you everybody!"</P><P>Foster and Usher were married in 2007, but <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1613894/usher-files-divorce.jhtml">divorced two years later</a> in 2009 and are currently going through a custody battle. They are both reportedly at the hospital.</P><P>This tragedy comes a month after <a href="http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1687847/usher-billboard-looking-4-myself.jhtml">Usher released his latest #1 album</a>, <i>Looking 4 Myself.</i></P>

Taking care of some items on their to-do list, Heidi Klum and her boyfriend, Martin Kristen, took her kids out on some errands on Wednesday (December 26) in Brentwood, CA.
The mom-of-four looked comfy casual in jeans and a grey coat, as she and her man toted Lou, Henry, Leni, and Johan to Toscana Restaurant to grab some lunch.
The group then continued on to Whole Foods to restock the pantry after the holidays, with Heidi picking out fresh fruits and veggies as the little ones played nearby.
