Lady Antebellum, Miranda Lambert Win Big At Academy Of Country Music Awards

Taylor Swift gets shut out at the 2010 ACMs in Las Vegas.

It was poised to be a big night for the ladies at the 45th annual Academy of Country Music Awards on Sunday night from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. And Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood and Lady Antebellum made sure that prediction came true as the pistol-packing country gal, the former "American Idol" champ and the female-led chart-topping trio swept up the evening's major awards.

Host Reba McEntire opened the show with some sharp-tongued barbs, praising the year of hits that included "White Liar," and then thanked Tiger Woods and Jesse James for giving country's women so much material. She took some good-humored jabs at young stars Underwood and Taylor Swift, joking about Underwood's recent engagement and Swift's runaway success. "At least I can vote," she said, looking at Swift with a grin.

Before the accolades started rolling in, the show kicked off with Lambert and Underwood dueting on Creedence Clearwater Revival's 1970 hit "Travelin' Band," giving the already swampy rock hit a Nashville rock makeover. The tune's composer, CCR genius John Fogerty, came out and ripped off a wicked solo and threw down a verse, trading off guitar licks with country star Brad Paisley. Also joining them was fiddle icon Charlie Daniels, who recently recovered from a minor stroke.

Sandra Bullock to Work Out Deal with Jesse James?

Scorned wife Sandra Bullock has delayed filing for divorce because she wants to work out an amicable deal with husband Jesse James, according to reports.

He was linked to Michelle "Bombshell" McGee last month in a salacious cheating scandal, during which a handful of other trashy women also came forward.

In addition to the mere fact that he was cheating on Sandra Bullock a lot, the publicity has been extremely tough on her and she's kept a very low profile.

So why hasn't she formally filed for divorce?

According to supposed insiders, she wants to work out and a deal with James before the papers are even filed, so as to avoid an ugly, public court fight.

“Sandra will definitely be filing divorce papers, but wants to make sure everything is lined up perfectly first so it doesn’t get messy,” the source revealed.

HTC Droid Incredible Review


At this point, the HTC Incredible should seem like pretty familiar territory to our readers. We first caught wind of the device in a ROM leak back in December of 2009, and shortly thereafter saw lots of little snippets on the phone that made it clear it was headed our way. Of course, it's a potent combination that's been put together here -- an HTC-made, Verizon-locked device sporting a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, 8GB of internal storage, 748MB of ROM, a microSD slot (with support for up to 32GB cards), an 8 megapixel camera with dual LED flash and autofocus, 480 x 800 AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, and most importantly, Android 2.1 with HTC's Sense UI on-board. The combo of America's largest (and some say best) 3G network with a super-fast, Sense-equipped Android phone is a match made in nerd heaven. We've seen a near-exact device in the HTC Desire -- basically the Incredible for the European market -- and the internals and screen technology are almost identical to the Nexus One, but the Incredible has a personality that's all its own. So is this the next killer device on the US market? Or have we heard this tune before? Read on for the answers you seek!

Believe or Not : iPhone 4G Proof of Engadget ?


Well what do you know about this? With all those rumors flying around that the iPhone 4G we'd spotted was no more than a Japanese knock-off of an Apple product, it was starting to look like this thing was too good to be true. That is until one of the Engadget editors spotted what seems to be solid proof that this is -- in fact -- the next iPhone. If you'll recall, the night before the iPad was revealed, we had leaked shots of the device from what appeared to be an Apple test lab. Upon further inspection of these pictures today, the aforementioned editor discovered that the new iPhone 4G we've just gotten photos of is actually sitting on the table beside the iPad prototype! Imagine how blown our minds were when we realized we have had a photo of the next iPhone for months! As you can see in the pic above, the left side of the new device is clearly visible on this table in the upper right hand corner, and since we believe that these photos come directly from an Apple testbed, it's hard to deny that the phone you've just seen is in fact the real deal. Not only that, but we suspect that the device on the tablet itself is also a version of the new phone (you can see what looks like aluminum along the bottom) which seems to be housed in some type of iPhone 3G-like case.

Additionally, a source -- who confirms this is the next Apple iPhone -- also tells us that the device apparently does have a higher res screen on-board, a front-facing camera, a higher resolution camera with flash, and takes MicroSIM cards (that's the little "button" around the side you see in the Twitpic which is floating around the internet). We're working on uncovering more info, but right now you can take a look at the proof above for yourself, and in the gallery below.

2PM releases Without U MV!

The teaser for 2PM’s comeback song Without U was a very hot topic amongst you guys these past few days. Now that the full music video is here, there is more for fans to go crazy over.


The setting is similar to the teaser, in a dimly-lit, eerie setting. The macho boys are really taking their beastliness (if there is such a word) to the next level.

With each comeback, they are getting more and more masculine. They started out as cute rookie boys in 10 Points Out of 10. Then they were getting more tough with Again & Again. During Hate You promotions, they revealed their sexy beast image. In Heartbeat, they took a unique road by wearing patterned suits as stage clothes.

And now with Without U, they are getting wet and throwing themselves in mud to look sexier than ever. I’m sure the wet, muddy boys are an additional treat for the ladies.

'Bodyguards and Assassins' sweeps Hong Kong film awards

An epic drama about a group of volunteers who risked their lives to protect modern China's founding father Sun Yat-sen from imperial assassins blitzed the Hong Kong Film Awards on Sunday.

"Bodyguards and Assassins" scooped seven gongs, including best film, best director, best supporting actor, best cinematography, and best action choreography.

"Lots of films have been made about Chinese revolutions, but in this film we wanted to touch the audience's heart by zeroing in on the relationships between the revolutionaries," director Teddy Chen told reporters after grabbing the award.

Singer-cum-actor Nicholas Tse, who starred as a rickshaw puller and one of Sun's "bodyguards" during his visit to Hong Kong to discuss plans with his fellow revolutionaries to overthrow the Qing Dynasty in the 1900s, was crowned best supporting actor.

"Echoes of the Rainbow", a low-budget drama on Hong Kong in the 1960s, emerged as the second biggest winner at the annual awards, after receiving the Crystal Bear prize at the Berlin International Film Festival.

Heidi Montag: ‘My Body is a Gazillion, Bazillion-Dollar Franchise’

HEIDI Montag is seriously delusional!

The reality TV star — who recently underwent a whopping ten cosmetic procedures on the same day — was surrounded by several bodyguards at the recent opening of Aira Hotel’s Liquid Pool in Las Vegas.

Montag says she’s taken on the heavies to make sure her “bazillion-dollar franchise” is kept out of harm’s way.

“I have to protect this body,” she told US TV show Extra. “It’s a trillion, gazillion, bazillion-dollar franchise.

“Today I’m swimsuit Barbie… Swimsuit Heidi. That’s way better!”

Heidi then denied rumors her marriage to hubby Spencer Pratt is on the rocks.

“Spencer and I are great,” she insisted. “Spencer and I are not getting divorced and that’s not true at all.”

Montag recently revealed that she’s keeping in shape by doing squats.

“I’ve been working out really hard doing lots of squats,” she said.

“I’m excited about the future now. I feel great and I’m ready for my life to move on now. I’ve just done a movie with Jennifer Aniston which I’m really excited about so I have so much to look forward to.”

Adobe CEO: Flash coming to Android, WebOS and BlackBerry 'smartphones and tablets' in 2H 2010


This week Adobe released version 5 of its Creative Suite software compilation. CEO Shantanu Narayen has naturally hit the interview trail to promote his company's wares, but the biggest news from him is actually a delay of sorts. We'd previously heard that Android, WebOS and BlackBerry versions of Flash 10.1 would be available in the first half of 2010, but Adobe's chief now places delivery to those platforms in the second half of the year. At least consolation may be found in his teasing of new Flash-enabled tablets -- most likely to be running Android or Chrome OS -- which we're told to expect to see within the same time frame. As to the question of Apple's holdout from Flash nirvana, Narayen describes it as a business rather than technology decision, which "hurts consumers" and will ultimately be judged by people voting "for the experience that they want through their wallet." Can't really argue with that. Skip past the break for the full interview.

Nexus One clone is 'Teg W3000,' has WiFi, dual cameras, TV tuner and Skype


Earlier this month, an unknown manufacturer had the dubious distinction of making our KIRF list, for building what appeared to be a Nexus One running iPhone OS. Mr. Blurrycam couldn't tell for sure... but today the KIRFtastic handset has been unveiled in all its infringing glory. Dubbed the "TEG W3000," the device is billed as a quad-band GSM worldphone with an accelerometer, WiFi and Bluetooth, front and back-facing 2 megapixel cameras, FM and analog TV tuners and Java support. While the iPhoney OS doesn't seem to have a App Store hackjob, the phone certainly has apps; in an interface pic, we spotted eBuddy, Facebook and Skype alongside Maps and the Opera web browser. Hands-down the most exciting ripoff in recent memory. Now cautiously whistle a happy tune, and move along.
