Pennsylvania Pregnant teen Briahna Gerloff collapsed after shoveling snow outside her home in Pottstown. According to local police, the 18-year-old was 8 months pregnant and suffered from several heart defects. "I told her it probably wasn’t a good idea for her to be outside shoveling," a family member told NBC Philadelphia. "She wanted to do it anyway.

Jerry Seinfeld shared a cup of Joe with the one and only President Obama , and there was no talk of politics! The Seinfeld star kicked off season 7 of his hit web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee on Wednesday. And although the Commander in Chief isn't a professional comedian, he proved he's got a great sense of humor. Seinfeld, 61, picked up his "are-you-kidding-me-super-special-guest" at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in a classic 1963 Corvette Stingray Split Window Coupe, even going through the bushes to knock on Obama's Oval Office window. From Crackle: Just Tell Him You’re the President While the host is used...

The Voice‘s Kimberly Nichole would like to remind America that “Black Girls Rock” isn’t just an awards show, it’s a musical reality.
“Throughout my career, it’s been frustrating to me that when I say, ‘I sing rock music,’ people are always surprised,” says Season 8’s sixth-place finisher. “People don’t know the history of rock music, how it evolved from the African-American spirituals, from the sharecroppers singing songs, to the blues, and then to rock music.”

What’s more, adds Kimberly, “music is universal, and anybody can sing any style anyhow.

The Newsroom concludes its uneven second season with a happy ending. Here's Mark's review of Election Night Part 2...
This review contains spoilers
2.9 Election Night Part Two
“Except for the things we did wrong, we did everything right.”
The Newsroom’s bumpy second season reaches a close with Election Night Part II, an episode that reconnects with many of the core elements that started off the show and finally absolves itself of the Operation Genoa storyline.
As discussed last week, the title has very little to do with the main thrust of the action. The 2012 presidential election was not exactly a tense race, and Aaron Sorkin’s script only occasionally pays lip service to delusional supporters at Romney HQ who thought otherwise. Once again, this is about the News Night team.
When we left them, things looked set to go to hell this week. Charlie...

Later this month I will begin my annual coverage of the Tribeca Film Festival but this post is actually about the only other festival I attend every year. I am of course talking about the Orlando Film Festival. And truth be told, if I could only pick one, I’d go with Off every time. Their 2013 Call For Entries just opened up and I urge any filmmakers ready to hit the festival circuit to Submit Now.
My love for Off dates back to when my first feature, Stuck Like Chuck, screened in 2009. That led to the festival’s creation of the Jerry Cavallaro Indie Spirit Award and I’ve been going back ever since to hand it out. In 2010 & 2011, I brought Nic Baisley from FilmSnobbery.com along to help cover the festival. In 2012 they debuted my second feature, Nic & Jerry Get Off, which as you can tell by the title is a gay porno.

My love for Jerry and Donna from Parks and Recreation is as endless as the ways Jerry embarrasses himself in every episode. What’s even better? The actors who play these characters are just as fun.
Take, for instance, the conversation they had with EW on the red carpet for NBC’s All-Star party on Monday night during TCA Press Tour. Among the topics? O’Heir’s hopes that — like Ron — we’ll delve into Jerry’s life a bit and meet some important ladies: His wife Gayle and three daughters!

A master turns 100 and Joe offers his Top 10 Herrmann scores….
One hundred years ago today — June 29th, 1911 — Bernard Herrmann was born. He was one of the great film composers and I have no doubt that, if you’re reading this, you’ve heard some of his music. If you’ve never delved into the classics that Herrmann scored (for shame), you’ve probably heard its influence. Quentin Tarantino notably borrowed a track from Twisted Nerve for a scene in Kill Bill and Beatles producer George Martin has cited the influence of Herrmann. (Go listen to “Eleanor Rigby”.)
On the web, NPR has a pretty conclusive overview of the man and there’s an exhaustive list of where you can track down celebrations of the man and his music over at the Bernard Herrmann Society.
I remember reading an interview with the late, great Jerry Goldsmith where he told this story about how,...
