Oscar, Please Let Franco Sing Cher

You must follow THIS link to hear James Franco rehearse Cher's should-have-been-nominated-for-an-Oscar-song "You Haven't Seen the Last of Me" from last year's Burlesque. While this proves there really is nothing James Franco cannot do, it also lets us down easy. He disappointedly tweeted that the number was cut from the Oscar broadcast.

Which brings me to another point- yes, Burlesque was maybe not "great cinema" or even remotely Oscar-worthy, but the song itself is really very good. And could Burlesque have been any worse than the much maligned Gwyneth Paltrow should-have-been-made-for-CMT Country Strong? Doubt it. But Gwyneth has been singing her way through every television show for a few months now, and so Oscar only followed suit by nominating her song so she could sing yet again on TV. Personally, I'll wait until she's back on Glee. Don't forget to listen to my manstress' song above!

*P.S. Our Oscar party show comes out this Friday!

Will Wicked Get Lost?

Three cheers for my hilarious headline!!! Oh- don't you understand it? Well, in news that Kendall would be very interested in, the film version of the musical "Wicked" just might be directed by the creator of a certain show about some people who crashed in a plane and landed on a magic island and (SPOILER ALERT) then died and went to a limbo-like place before meeting up again and ascending to "the next level."

Anyway- click HERE to read an article about some possible choices (including J.J. Abrams and Ryan Murphy- creator of 'Glee') to direct to imminent film version of the show Kendall has seen over 10 times!
