As if Pharrell doesn’t have enough on his plate he’s now adding television producer to his line of credits.
What can’t the world’s hottest black man do?
The beatmaker, 34, will overlook filming on the upcoming TV series, which focuses on students at a New York performing arts school.
He says, “This project reminded me a lot of my own life growing up. Coming from a different environment where we stuck out for having abilities that we later learned, after attending a school like this, were actually gifts and talents. The moral Dna for this project is that it’s OK to dream, but to bring it to fruition requires hard work.”
Sounds like a modern take on “FAME”, and how could we not love THAT!
For the record, we’ve stated before that we are on team Britney. Someone has to be….. so we joined.
We were lying in bed this weekend and watched an hour and a half biography on Brit on E, and then after that was another special on her ass. It’s almost like she got so much bad press that it turned into good press. Britney’s completed a whole failed career cycle in just three weeks, and coming out on top.
Her single “Gimme More” is #3 on Itunes, and that’s means something right!? Plus she has the #1 most popular ringtone for all you haters out there.
True, “Gimme More”, is only number 18 on the Radio and Records Top 40 after three weeks, but after the VMA’s there’s no question that she’s fighting her way back into our hearts and Ipods!

We know you cringed when you heard Sony was remaking The Karate Kid, but you don’t know the half of it.
Will Smith’s son, Jaden Christopher Syre , is set to take over the role of Daniel Larusso, played by Ralph Maccio in the 80′s! GASP! WHAT? Huh!?
We know!
Not that Jaden isn’t a great actor, he shined in The Pursuit Of Happiness, well that’s a lie we never saw it, but other people said he was great. It’s just that Ralph Maccio was 23 when he took the role of Daniel Son, and Jayden’s 9 going on 10.
Maybe if the title was Karate Kid Jr. it would work but how can we watch a ten year old get the crap kicked out of him? GRAPHIC!
Sony Pictures has been in talks to make a modern version of the film, but it has not been indicated who would take the role of Mr Miyagi, played by the late Pat Morita.
What!? No Mr. Miyagi! This sequel is sooo doomed. I fear a great deal Daniel Son.
LA Rag Mag rarely writes about scripted television (except The Hills!).
We sat on our asses all week and watched EVERY NEW SHOW from Dancing With The Stars to Bionic Woman. We can tell you right now, Dirty Sexy Money is the hottest show of the season! It’s fab and it almost feels like you’re watching HBO for free because of the raunchy content. Can you really pass up a laugh out loud show about wealth, excess, pill popping, alcoholism, revenge, murder, and William Baldwin dating a tranny hooker?
We didn’t think so.
Is it just us or does every new fall show deal with wealth and money? Gossip Girl (Lynn’s new guilty pleasure) on the CW, Dirty Sexy Money on ABC, even Private Practice would never have been without Kate Walsh’s loads of cash.
Hollywood always tries to make us feel more poor by putting images of EXTREMELY wealthy people for us to base of life standards on. Hollywood can be such a mean bitch sometimes! Good thing we love a good mean bitch.
“I’d just taken a tab of acid – my first and last tab of acid, I can assure you – and was heading off into the fields and thinking, ‘I’m not quite sure what’s going to happen next.’
“I had the most wonderful time on it – it was wonderful, partly because my good friend came up to me just as the world was refracting and said, ‘Don’t worry Hel, it’s gonna be fine. Just let go and enjoy it and it’ll be fine,’ and I did. He sort of saved me and I had a fantastic time.
“I thought, ‘That was great, that was wonderful.’ “But it was very, very extreme…”
So the moral of the story kids is give into your drugs, it makes them a lot more fun.
GOOD TIMES! We loved our senior year of high school and pink elephants really DO fly!
Sometimes the spotlight of fame gets in the way of a star’s private life, and Beckham is learning that today. The father that taught him everything he knows about soccer lies dying in a hospital bed, due to complications from a heart attack, and they’ve reconnected after being estranged from each other for years.
For various reasons – Ted’s divorce from David’s mother Sandra, his attitude to Victoria, his support for Sir Alex Ferguson and the book he wrote about his famous son – it is a long time since he was part of the Beckhams’ circle of trust.
He broke down and visibly wept whilst cradling his father’s hands in his own.
The pair have not been close since Ted and David’s mother Sandra went through a bitter divorce in 2002.
Friends and family described David as being “in a state of shock” about the heart attack because he thought his father had been in such good health.
One family member told the Daily Mail last night how David has blamed himself for the sudden deterioration in his father’s health.
He is said to feel the estrangement – and the fact that he worked so hard in his job and would stubbornly refuse hand-outs of his son’s money – had taken a toll on his health-Daily Mail
Their story is one we’ve heard before but that doesn’t make it any less of a family tragedy.
In a show of support, Posh has also flown to the UK, to be by Beckham’s side and make amends with her father in law on his death bed.
Why do families always tear themselves apart, only to reconnect on a death bed? All families do it, even ours, and it’s such a waste of time and life.
Our hearts go out to David and Posh, and hope this visit is a time of healing and conclusion for them.
“Honestly, it just took a long time. I got there at like 1 [p.m.], and I didn’t leave until 8 p.m. I have really dark hair, so it took a long time, but it didn’t really hurt,” she says.
“I got the idea because the movie I just finished [I Know What Boys Like], I was wearing a blonde wig, so I saw myself like that. And I just went for it.” I always find that whenever I’m doing something big in my life, I want to change the hair.”
We were just debating on www.thebigdebate.com if she was pretty or just famous, and now we have the answer. She looks like she’s dying…..for attention.
That’s why Paris’s new fragrance Can Can, is a DON’T DON’T! We watched her do a whole segment on ET about it and never mentioned what it smelled like….HAS SHE SMELLED IT?
Come on girl, can’t we just stick with the vanilla scent of strippers?
