Mick Jagger has credited an unlikely pair of pop-punk singers with keeping the spirit of rock music alive. In a new interview with Swedish radio station P4, the Rolling Stones singer — one of the greatest frontmen in music history — bemoaned the lack of rockers in recent years. However, two artists have caught his attention: Machine Gun Kelly and Yungblud. “In rock music you need energy and there have not been a lot of new rock singers around. Now there are a few,” Jagger said (via The Independent). “You have Yungblud and Machine Gun Kelly. That kind of post-punk vibe makes me think there is still a bit of life in rock and roll.” As NME notes, Yungblud previously name-checked Jagger as an inspiration and a role model for what he hopes is a lengthy career. “I’m not arsed about b...

Born to fame, you will remember their name. Many celebs have opted to give their children unique names. In recent years, the list has included Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, who welcomed their firstborn child, a daughter, via surrogate in January. Her name is Malti Marie Chopra Jonas, her birth certificate shows. While the couple has not commented on the moniker of their now 3-month-old, Malti is a name that originates from Hindu which means a jasmine flower, according to babynames.com. Gwyneth Paltrow famously raised eyebrows back in 2004 when she and Chris Martin named their daughter Apple.

Steve Martin has just about all of the internet going to bat for him against millennials who apparently don't find the humor in one of his most famous 'SNL' sketches ... King Tut! Here's the deal ... SM's trending because somebody reposted and recirculated his famously goofy Egyptian-themed dance that he performed on the late-night program, on which he made regular appearances in the '70s. Yesterday marked the 44th anniversary of its debut. The Steve Martin King Tut video is going around without the monologue, which is a criminal offense that borders on libel. The whole thing is a punchline. If you...

Christian Bale was another potential backup plan in case the "Face/Off" star declined to play himself. Getting a major Hollywood star to be in your movie is never an easy task, but it’s doubly difficult when a role was specifically written for one actor. That was certainly the case with “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent,” which stars Nicolas Cage as a fictionalized version of himself. The film was written by Tom Gormican and Kevin Etten, who wrote the script before they ever met Nicolas Cage. In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the two men shed light on the difficult process of shopping a script that only one actor could star in. “We were told that Nick has done these projects before and he’s not wild about Nick as Nick,” Etten said. “And we weren’t two guys ...
