Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed set Wedding Date!

Mark your calendars for October 1, as Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed have set a wedding date! Yes, the KISS power-couple will transform their 28-year relationship into an actual marriage with a party at a hotel in Beverly Hills, California. So check your mail for a wedding invitation. For those of you, like myself, who have been watching their Reality TV series, ?Gene Simmons Family Jewels?, this news answers the hanging question of whether or not Shannon said ?Yes? when Gene proposed to her in Belize. October 1, 2011 is set as the wedding date for Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed. Image Credit: Adriana M. Barraza / WENN.com. We all like a happy ending and this certain qualifies. Gene and Shannon had a rough year, though Shannon would say a rough three years or so. For a while, it did look like she would leave him now that their children, Nick and Sophie, are both in college. Shannon had had enough of Gene schmoozing with women. The KISS front man is 61 now and a bit long in the tooth to keep up his rock star image. Shannon has also been irritated with Gene?s many business meetings and such. Hopefully [...]

Captain America

Go see Captain America this weekend! Support our Colin!

I went to the premiere on Tuesday and it was the coolest thing ever. First, the movie is AMAZING and Chris Evans is a superstar. Second, there were so many damn people there it was insane. I have been to movie premieres in New York before and they were nothing like this. I mean, they closed down Hollywood Boulevard. I would've taken photos to show you, but the invite said to leave phones in the car. But here's a photo of me in my cool Captain America 3D glasses:

(Sit down, stop jumping around, it's an awesome picture, I know. And the quality is amazing. It's not grainy or reddish... it's perfect.) (No, it's not.)

(And you can totally see the Captain America logo on the side of the glasses.) (No, you can't.)

Anyway, Captain America is pulling a strong 71% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes right now so GO SEE IT! IT'S FANTASTIC!

Although MTV News' Sway Calloway has enough interview experience to get the goods from the biggest and brightest stars, our special VMA Pre-Show co-host Selena Gomez proved to be just as skilled as our season pro when her interview subject was boyfriend Justin Bieber

"I'm here with the one-and-only Justin Bieber," Gomez said when she introduced the singer with a smile. "Who are you wearing? Can you please talk about that?"

"I have my snake," Bieber said, displaying a live pet reptile in his hand. "I have red pants and cheetah shoes."

"What's your snake's name?" Gomez expertly followed up.

"My snake's name is Johnson," Bieber responded.

"You're up for Best Male Video," Gomez continued. "I wanna know — you're up against Eminem and Bruno Mars — do you feel a little nervous at all?"

"You know, I'm just excited to be in the category with such amazing people," Bieber said of his fellow nominees. "I'm just happy to be here."

"Rumored to be performing is Jay-Z and Kanye [West], and I know you like them both," Gomez continued, adding a bit of her Bieber expertise to the conversation. "Are you excited to see them perform?"

"Very excited," Bieber said. "I heard that it was kind of a last minute thing, but I'm really excited."

Gomez, again relying upon her insider Bieber knowledge, prodded Bieber further, asking if he was more excited for Jay-Z and Kanye West, or another of his favorites, Beyoncé.

"I'm excited to see Beyoncé too," Bieber said with a grin.

"Good," Gomez said, clearly pleased with their work. "Thank you so much. Thank you for hanging out, babe," she said to Bieber, as the "Baby" singer leaned in to plant a sweet kiss on Gomez's cheek.

Justin Bieber Survives Minor Car Accident

Justin Bieber Survives Minor Car Accident

Pop star Justin Bieber was in a car accident on Tuesday. But don't fret, teen girls! The "U Smile" singer walked away without a scratch.

The Biebs was involved in a minor fender bender, but no one was hurt, TMZ reports. According to the LAPD, Bieber, 17, was driving a black Ferrari in an underground parking lot in the San Fernando Valley, when a Honda Civic bumped the luxury car as it attempted to pass.

Sources present told TMZ the Honda only "tapped" the Ferrari, so JB didn't even exchange information with the Civic's driver. But eventually one of the pop superstar's friends called the LAPD, who appeared on the scene and determined there wasn't any damage, so there was no need to file a report.

"No one was injured and there was no damage to either vehicle," the police department said in a statement.

Black Eyed Peas, Usher, Slash Light Up Super Bowl XLV Halftime Show

The Black Eyed Peas promised a party at the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday (February 6), and the pop supernovas definitely delivered, with a performance teeming with lights, dancers and surprise appearances from celebrity pals.

Following a Chatter.com commercial that showed animated versions of the Peas showing off their social-media skills, the group kicked things off with their 2009 smash "I Gotta Feeling," descending from the ceiling on illuminated platforms onto a stage surrounded by a cluster of dancers clad in white bodysuits. The foursome led the team of fist-pumping troops in "Tron"-like getups, with Taboo sporting an outfit covered in flashing lights, will.i.am rocking a shiny hairpiece, Apl.de.ap wearing huge bright studs and Fergie vamping it up in bling-laden shoulder pads.

When the speaker-busting bass of "Boom Boom Pow" dropped, the dancers dispersed across the field to create arrow-shaped formations as the glow-in-the-dark lights on their suits illuminated the stadium. Then rumored surprise guest Slash of Guns N' Roses rose from below the stage for a "Sweet Child O' Mine" duet with Fergie. The GNR great rocked a finger-searing solo in a studded version of his signature black top hat as more angular platforms and dancers moved across the gridiron. The platforms were bearing scores of marching-band musicians who blasted their horns and pounded away on their drums as the Peas went into "Pump It" and blue lights splashed across the production.

Quick streams of fog heralded the arrival of the Peas' second surprise guest, Usher, who swooped in on a long chain to bust out his will.i.am-assisted joint "OMG." Rocking a sparkly collar on an otherwise all-white ensemble, the R&B hitmaker cranked out several counts of energetic choreography, enlivening moves from his "OMG" video and at one point jumping over Will and landing in a split.

A spray of pyro ushered in the collective's breakout 2003 hit "Where Is the Love?" as the oddly shaped platforms spelled out the word "Love" in bright-red letters. The team of dancers, which appeared to have multiplied to over 100, formed hearts across the field as will updated the lyrics of the smash with lines like, "Obama, let's get these educated."

Then the group jumped ahead to their most recent single, 2010's "The Time (Dirty Bit)," as several back up hoofers rocking cubed helmets joined the Peas onstage and dancers lined up along the gridiron to simultaneously bust out the Running Man, a move which drew cheers from the crowd.

The platinum-selling Peas wrapped up the performance with a reprise of "I Gotta Feeling," as the quartet triumphantly signed off amid of blitz of fog, firepower and flashing lights.

Ripping the halftime show was clearly a touching moment for will, who tweeted beforehand, "Me and apl started the peas when we were 16 yesterday we were dreamin now were livin it. Wow. I'm not crying out of sadness or nervousness its joy and pride and memories and the journey."

And once the crew left the stage, the frontman was not only proud, but pumped. "That was so freakin sick," he wrote. "Wow...!!!"
