Ice-t can’t relate to Lenny Kravitz’s apparent decision to go celibate for nearly a decade, describing it as “weirdo shit.”
In a recent interview with The Guardian, Kravitz revealed he hasn’t been in a serious relationship for nine years and confirmed his intention to remain celibate until he meets the right woman. “It’s a spiritual thing,” he explained.

Many outlets have interpreted this as meaning Kravitz has been celibate for nine years, though the artist isn’t quoted in the story saying as much.
After Ice-t caught wind of the revelation, he posted a string of incredulous tweets expressing his inability to process the idea of voluntarily giving up sex for that long.
“9yrs without Sex?” Ice-t began. “F that Bs. Weirdo shit.” When someone pointed out Kravitz is on “his own journey,” Ice-t responded, “F that Journey.”

Stars: Cassiel Eatock-Winnik, Bjorn Steinbach, Alex McGregor, Savana Tardieu | Written by Jessica Landry | Directed by Danishka Esterhazy
Killer Body Count is the latest film from, Danishka Esterhazy who has made a name for herself in the genre with Level 16, The Banana Splits Movie, The Slumber Party Massacre and several episodes of SurrealEstate. This time out, working from a script by Jessica Landry she’s returning to the slasher genre with a tale of sex, religion and dead teenagers.
The film begins on a familiar enough note as a couple having sex in a tent find themselves on the receiving end of some unplanned penetration from a figure wearing a monk’s robes and a devil mask. Is it the seminarian who went mad and slaughtered the priests, nuns and their fellow students twenty years ago, or someone cashing in on the legend? That remains to be seen.

Welcome back to Origins, our recurring series that gives artists a space to break down everything that went into their latest release. Today, Ice-t digs into the twisted inspirations behind the latest Body Count release, “Psychopath.”
Body Count have returned with their new single, “Psychopath,” offering Ice-t the opportunity to step back into a different side of himself kept hidden while playing Sergeant Fin Tutuola on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
As Ice-t tells Consequence over Zoom, he relishes in extremes when making music — particularly when it comes to the macabre. “I think humans have a blood lust,” he explains. “We’re fascinated by it… we run to the car crash.”
For the multi-hyphenate, working with his hardcore/metal project, Body Count, offers a different kind of catharsis and escapism than playing a character on TV, or playing a character in his solo music. Their new release, “Psychopath...

Music keeps this world going round, and as such, this year's Grammy Awards included some of the fiercest competition in years! On Sunday, musicians like Megan Thee Stallion, Brittany Howard of Alabama Shakes fame, Dua Lipa, and more came together to celebrate one of the most fascinating years in music. Some have earned epic nominations, like Beyoncé racking up nine nods and being crowned the most-nominated artist of the year, or Roddy Ricch and Taylor Swift earning six nominations each. Others are there to pull out on the stops onstage and show us the best of their best with their performances.
At 9 years old, Blue Ivy Carter became the second youngest Grammy winner for her contributions to mom Beyoncé's "Brown Skin Girl" video. It seems Beyoncé might be the key to winning Grammys, as Megan Thee Stallion also took home one for best rap performance...

"Daddy's biggest fan!" read a message posted on the baby's Instagram page. "Watching Daddy's sound check for his rock band...show in Tempe for tonight...I even have my Body Count onesie on and can even mimic dads mean mug face. It's all in the...

The 2015 Ida Documentary Awards took place at the Paramount Theater hosted by comedian Tig Notaro. Notaro was quick to point out this was the first year of the awards being “broadcasted…” on Periscope, and for that reason alone maybe the last.
The Best Feature Award was given to Joshua Oppenheimer’s “The Look of Silence,” which made the Oscar shortlist earlier in the week and happens to be the film companion for “The Act of Killing.” “The Look of Silence” has been banned in Indonesia and screenings of the film are only available through NGOs, schools/universities, religious organizations and other limited outlets.

Agents of Shield, Season 2, Episode 22: “Sos Part 2”
Written by Jed Whedon and Maurissa Tancharoen
Directed by Billy Gierhart
Airs Tuesdays at 9pm (Et) on ABC
Audiences should consider themselves warned that “Sos”, the two-part season 2 finale of Agents of Shield, does not mess around. Five named characters (plus two very unlucky Shield redshirts) die, Coulson loses his forearm like Ash from Evil Dead, and Simmons is dragged off, Drag Me to Hell-style, by that mysterious Kree stone. (Did the writers have a Sam Raimi marathon just before writing this episode?) A few storylines get resolved, like the May-Dr. Garner relationship and Cal protecting Skye, but there is also a lot of set-up for season 3 in the midst of this epic showdown between Shield and Jiaying. For everything it is setting up, however,...

Previously: Review: 'Orphan Black' Season 3, Episode 3, 'Formalized, Complex, and Costly’: The Body Count Rises Cloning AroundApparently we jumped the gun last week and put entirely too much stock in Mrs. J's shooting skills, because rather than shooting Mark in the head, she gave him the ole leg-and-tummy treatment instead. From the appearance of things, that move was to keep him alive long enough for her Prolethian goons to come fetch him, maybe for questioning or torture purposes. Either way that didn't happen -- because fortunately for him, Sarah intervened first and proved yet again that she's probably the most loyal sibling on the planet. Something tells us that despite her need to save Helena and extract info from Mark, a larger part of her helping him had to do with her finding out they're brother and sister.

American Horror Story, and in particular this season's "Freak Show," has about as much forward progression as a treadmill. This week's episode trudged ahead with its story by the smallest margin possible that could still be labeled "forward". Miraculously, the episode somehow managed to contain four plotlines: Elsa, further displaying her ruthlessness to survive on her birthday of all days, reveals a dangerous new act for the Freak Show (after surely watching Theo James perform a similar routine in Divergent); Stanley exerts pressure on Maggie to murder the Freaks; Paul indulges in a secret romance with Penny as he juggles his illicit affair with Elsa; and Dandy attempts to woo Bette and Dot much to the chagrin of his mother.
Most Quotable: Elsa dismissing Penny’s entrance into her tent as she consoles a wounded Paul, “Speaking of cheap perfume.

Ahs rips its own plotlines off for this new episode (guest starring Wes Bentley)How do you make an episode in which almost nothing happens almost half-again as long as episodes where lots of things happen? I know not but Hollywood is getting very good at it lately what with all their supersized TV episodes and two part movie finales for quadrilogies where a trilogy (or less) would do.
In "honor" of the bloating, we're going svelte with a briefer rundown .
Plot: A con artist and his protege arrive at the freakshow with nefarious plans. Bette and Dot still hate each other. Bearded Lady gets bad news. And, finally, ripping itself off completely Freakshow reboots Coven's Danny Huston plotline about a ghostly mass murderer from the past being unintentionally summoned to visit our makeshift family of weirdos.
Episode Mvp: Kathy Bates. Ethel visits a doctor and learns she only has a year to live.

The Gracepoint producers are out to copy the success of the UK series Broadchurch — with some major tweaks.
“The first order of business was, ‘Don’t screw up what works,’ because [Broadchurch] was fantastic,” executive producer Dan Futterman said Sunday at the Television Critics Assoc. summer press tour in Beverly Hills. “We didn’t want to break what was working. But we also wanted to raise this show in a different country.”

Law & Order: Svu mainstay Ice-t’s Body Count surfaced last month to release Manslaughter, the thrash-metal band’s fifth album, which comes complete with not one, but two, versions of “99 Problems” — a song that first appeared on Ice-t’s 1993 solo album, Home Invasion. Of course most people know "99 Problems" as a track off Jay Z's The Black Album. "I thought his version was dope, but Jay didn’t go out of his way to mention that it was a remake," Ice-t told Vulture recently. So he decided to "reclaim" the song on this album — sort of like the rap equivalent of peeing on a tree stump.But calling Jay Z's early-aughts update a "remake" isn't exactly correct, as he and producer Rick Rubin changed the context of the song so that it went from a boast detailing a long list of sexual conquests to one describing the very...

Your mom thinks he’s just wonderful as Law & Order: Svu’s Odafin Tutuola. Your nephew says that Madd Dogg is his favorite character from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Your weird brother-in-law swears that his turn as a half-man, half-kangaroo in 1995’s Tank Girl is a highlight of 20th-century cinema. But the man doing business as Ice-t (real name: Tracy Marrow) put himself in a position to leverage his profile across various media platforms due to his abilities on the microphone: He was unquestionably one of the best storytellers and most dominant rappers of the late 1980s and early ’90s. His 1986 single “6 ’N the Morning” pioneered gangsta-rap, but it was with his hardcore punk/heavy-metal side project Body Count and 1992’s revenge fantasy “Cop Killer” that Ice-t courted his greatest notoriety; he raised the ire of not only prominent politicians but also of Charlton Heston, who railed about the...

In many ways, I liked this week’s episode of Fargo, titled “Buriden’s Ass,” as much as I disliked last week’s (both of them were directed by Colin Bucksey). It wasn’t perfect, but it had a good deal of action and racked up a serious body count. Not that deaths make a good show, but it was enough that stuff was happening. And much of that stuff led to conclusions for certain characters and questions for and about others, questions that are intriguing rather than frustrating. Some characters make really dumb choices, as is expected in this series, but interestingly Lester (Martin Freeman) was not one of them this time. He finally made decisions that indicate he could just make it through the finale alive, after all. There are two moments in the episode where characters are shown to be really thinking about what to do next. For...

Film is a constantly developing medium, and while the vast majority of the improvements and advances are strictly on the storytelling side of the equation others are more focused on the technical front. Some films are interested in pushing the boundaries on both ends simultaneously. The new Dutch film App is a straight-forward techno-thriller hoping to enhance the experience with a unique second-screen phone app experience. Moviegoers already pull out their phones far too frequently in theaters, so if you think this sounds like a nightmare scenario you’re not alone. For a film watched and enjoyed in the comfort of your own home though it’s a far more bearable experience… but is it a positive one? Anna (Hannah Hoekstra) has her hands full with a boyfriend, classwork and a brother in the hospital, but her life grows even more out of control when a mysterious app appears on her phone. Iris...
