Does the world need the Grammy awards? Not according to Grammy-winner Drake, who the Recording Academy cut off during his spotlight moment at the 2019 awards, after he suggested the Grammys don’t matter as much as viral popularity. After winning Best Rap Song for “God’s Plan,” Drake used his winner’s speech to encourage musicians to work on their craft regardless of recognition. “All my peers that make music from their heart, that do things pure and tell the truth, I wanna let you know we’re playing an opinion-based sport, not a factual-based sport,” he said. “So it’s not the NBA, where at the end of the year, you’re holding a trophy because you made the right decisions or won the games.”
“The point is, you’ve already won if you have...
A trailer for Disney’s upcoming live-action adaptation of Aladdin aired during the 2019 Grammys finally gave everyone what they wanted — Will Smith’s Genie.
The first teaser for the film, which debuted in October 2018, left the Genie out. New images of Smith in costume as the popular and beloved character have since been released. Entertainment Weekly spoke to Smith about the role, which was originally performed by the late Robin Williams, in December 2018. Smith also spoke about the differences between his version of the character and Williams’.
There’s a little bit less mimicking — there’s a James Brown piece that we do but a little bit less mimicking. The thing that will be the major addition from me playing the Genie is the hip-hop...

In the words of the great Aegon Targaryen (aka Jon Snow), there’s only one war that matters, and it is here.
Yes, the White Walkers are on the march, and they’re bringing with them an undead army the likes of which we’ve never seen before – I mean, they’ve even got a freaking dragon. And so begins the final season of Game of Thrones, which will be here before we know it, as it’s due to premiere on April 14th.
It’s no wonder then viewers are already counting down the days before they can catch back up with Jon, Arya and Daenerys Targaryen, and though we still have another full season to get through, it seems that most of the cast and crew have already begun to think about their post-Thrones lives.
Showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss certainly have, at least. As you surely know, the duo will write and produce a new series of Star Wars films, and today we’re learning that they’ve actually been offered three movies by the studio. Clearly, then, they’re cooking up a whole trilogy for us, but details beyond that remain scarce.
Still, it’s nice to have confirmation on how many films they’ll be in charge of, as at the time of the initial announcement, we were just told they’d be working on “a series” of them. Of course, things could always change and if Lucasfilm ends up with a Solo-level flop when the first effort from Benioff and Weiss hits theaters, they may rethink things. But for now, at least, you can expect three different movies from the Thrones masterminds.
So, while Benioff and Weiss have their Star Wars series firmly in place, folks are still feeling a little skeptical about whether Rian Johnson’s trilogy will ever see the light of day. The filmmaker himself has dismissed all that chatter about it being cancelled, but the rumors have persisted and quite frankly, it wouldn’t surprise us at all to see Lucasfilm scrap it.
But let’s not get too far ahead of ourselves. Firstly, this current trilogy is in need of a conclusion, and it’ll get one when Star Wars: Episode IX hits theaters on December 20th, 2019.
