POP Culture at a glance....and not in a glass!!
Big mouth talk show hostess Wendy Williams is set to host "Love Triangle" on the GSN. I for one can pass on seeing Williams give us her opinions on what does and doesn't work in marriage, after all her husband Kevin Hunter is pimping her, if he gets her a job, then he doesn't have to work.
Britney Spears single "Hold It Against Me" debut @ #1, as her fans attest to her stature in music.
Soul singer Eric Benet is engaged to Prince ex-wifey Manuela Testolini.
Actor and Hip Hop star Drake is in talks to star in a new movie - a thriller called Arbitrage. The cast of the indie flick already includes Susan Sarandon and Eva Green, but there is no word on who Drake would actually play. The story centers around a "hedge fund magnate who is in over his head and desperate to complete the sale of his shady trading empire to a major bank before his fraud is revealed."
Despite passing on the David E. Kelley pilot last week,
NBC made the decision to pick up the show now that Comcast is taking over the network.
The network passed on the script due to costly licensing fees as well as having bad luck with superhero projects in the past (ahem, Bionic Woman).
However, now that Robert Greenblatt has taken over, the show just may have a chance after all. I'm hoping that Lynda Carter will be a part of this show.
