Bieber fever: But if you want to outrun a horde of hysterical girls, Justin, maybe you should pick something faster than a Segway

Bieber mania has hit the States!

It was like a scene from the 1964 Beatles movie Hard Day's Night as legions of Beliebers hunted and chased down their pop idol on the street.

The 16-year-old tried to escape, zipping off on a Segway, but to no avail and he was eventually cornered by his crazed fans.



Bieber had been enjoying a little downtime with some friends when he was spotted by a group of teenage girls last Sunday.

The singer was riding around the Westgate market place on his Segway in Glendale, Arizona, where he was scheduled to perform as part of his My World tour.

Despite his best attempts at escape, when he was caught Bieber was a good sport, taking the time to pose for pictures and sign autographs.

All the crazy action was caught by an onlooker on his phone who then posted the hilarious video on You Tube.

“Titanic 2″ Sets Sail….In B-Grade Quality

7/29/2010 05:18:00 PM kenmouse , Posted in , 0 Comments


A movie studio famous for its “mockbuster” B-movie spoofs of Hollywood hits has set its sights on James Cameron’s epic love story, Titanic.

The Leonardo DiCaprio-Kate Winslet-assisted smash captivated audiences in 1997 and until this year, held the distinction as the world’s highest-grossing film of all-time. Ah — sounds like the perfect target for the comedic minds at Asylum Studio.

On Wednesday, the studio released the trailer for Titanic II, set 100 years after the ill-fated maiden voyage of the world’s most famous cruise-liner. The straight-to-DVD film — which uses the tagline “Looks like history is repeating itself!” — follows the Titanic II as it travels along the same route on the same day as its doomed predecessor. When a tsunami hurls an iceberg into the ship’s path the passengers and crew fight to keep the ship afloat.

Dick van Dyke’s grandson, Shane, directs and stars in the film alongside former Baywatch babe Brooke Burns and X-Men’s Bruce Davison.

Titanic 2 hits Netflix this August.

Asylum’s other outlandish spoofs include Paranormal Entity, Snakes on a Train, Terminators, Pirates of Treasure Island, and Da Vinci Treasure.

Joey Yung Denies Competing With Charlene Choi to be EEG's "Number 1 Big Sister"

Ancient time-costume romantic comedy movie "The Jade and the Pearl" will hit theatre screens mid-August. In the movie, Joey Yung breaks through her previous image, portraying a character resembling a brigand female queen.

In the movie starring Charlene Choi and Raymond Lam with secondary characters Joey Yung and Wong Cho Lam, Joey Yung acts as a brigand female queen (Cottage king), brave and fierce, rough and masculine. Joey Yung revealed that the director intentionally arranged for her to eat more, for the sake of gaining weight. Regarding for the first time starring in a movie, her on-screen image is a bit "ugly," but she expressed that she's very happy, "I hope to be like Karen Mok in "Shaolin Soccer", that sort of not having anything holding back." Joey also revealed that in the funny plot: "This female brigand has lots of funny behaviour, for example setting her mind to thinking a written war challenge is a love letter, the people she is the leader of are equally as clumsy as her, brave but without any plans, actually this female thief is very witty, innately with a desire to steal, making the movie filled with a comedy feel."

Will Natalie Portman Play the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo?

7/29/2010 09:17:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , , , , , 0 Comments

With a director, producer and Daniel Craig already signed on, and even a release date penciled in, the Hollywood adaptation of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is now on the hunt for its leading lady.

But the highly coveted role of Lisbeth Salander, the punky math genius and computer hacker in Stieg Larsson's best-selling mystery novel, won't be going to a familiar face in Hollywood.

Natalie Portman, Ellen Page and Carey Mulligan were rumored to be front-runners – and readers voted for casting Kristen Stewart in the role. But, according to an Entertainment Weekly report, four relatively unknown actresses are actually up for the role. They are:

Rooney Mara: Born and raised in New York, her showbiz career started with small roles on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit and ER. Breaking away from the family business of sports – she's the great-granddaughter of Pittsburgh Steelers founder Art Rooney and Giants founder Tim Mara – she was recently seen in A Nightmare on Elm Street and will next appear alongside Justin Timberlake in The Social Network.

So Is The iPhone An “iPhone Killer” Killer?

7/29/2010 09:13:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , , , , 0 Comments

Today, Reuters published this article. On their site, it seems fairly innocuous, with the title “RIM stock jumps as market eyes revamped BlackBerry” but that wasn’t the original title. And it’s not the one Reuters syndication partners are picking up. That title is “RIM seen unveiling ‘iPhone killer’ next week“. Yep. Here we go again.

If Reuters is to be believed, the BlackBerry 9800 set to be unveiled next Tuesday will destroy the iPhone. I’m not sure how yet. But it just will. Nevermind that fact that it’s at least the tenth or so phone to earn such a moniker — and the iPhone is not only still alive, but thriving — it just will.

Now look, generally I don’t have a major problem with declaring something a “XXXXX-killer” in headlines. Sure, it’s lazy, but it’s also an easy way to get readers to understand what a product is attempting to be. And it’s a hell of a lot sexier than saying something is a “XXXXX competitor.” That’s boring (and longer, to boot).

Apple to investigate iOS 4 problems on iPhone 3G

7/29/2010 09:12:00 AM kenmouse , Posted in , , , , 0 Comments

Some iPhone 3G owners who upgraded their phone to the latest iOS software have complained of slowness and shorter battery life. Apple now says it will be looking into the complaints.

That's according to what one spokesperson at the iPhone maker told The Wall Street Journal.

Since iOS 4 was released in mid-June, iPhone 3G owners have voiced problems with the phone seemingly grinding to a halt: slow keyboard response time, frozen unlock screens, and a battery that drains faster than with previous versions of the software.

One CNET reader told us, "The OS update has made my 2-year-old 3G massively slower in performing all tasks; it barely rings for 5 seconds before going to voice mail now! It freezes in typing, Web-browsing, and all other apps like it never did before iOS 4."

The next time you’re cruising down the Interstate having your ears molested by the sound of Paris Hilton screeching over an obnoxious techno beat, just blame Australian songbird Kylie Minogue.

Paris just can’t seem to get Kylie “outta her head.” So much so – she’s ripped some of her steez for her new album. New vocal stylings (or lack thereof) from the socialite/heiress will soon by waifing up from the AM/FM radio and Paris is drawing inspiration from the “Locomotion” pop icon as she readies her sophomore set — a follow-up to her 2006 debut, Paris.
