True Bloods Jim Parrack on His Characters Dark Side, Working With James Franco, and Riding Jas

Did Hoyt Fortenberry and Jessica Hamby just break up — again? As the warm-blooded half of what was the most stable human-vampire relationship on True Blood, Hoyt’s the “normal” character in the show: He’s not a bloodsucker, shape-shifter, werewolf, werepanther, fairy, witch, medium, spirit, etc. But trying to live a simple life in Bon Temps has its own share of drama, as Jim Parrack, who plays Hoyt, can attest. We spoke with the actor about what’s next for his character, his dream-sequence sex scene with Ryan Kwanten, and the movie he shot with his real-life best friend, James Franco. [Read More]

Tuck In for Plenty of Food-Related Sexual Innuendos in Katy Perrys New Song Bon Apptit

Are you hungry? If breakfast is the most important meal of the day, Katy Perry is served. After teasing her new song — the follow-up to her less-delicious “Chained to the Rhythm” — with a call for the best cherry pie recipe, the actual menu presented on “Bon Appétit” with Migos is even sweeter. (And full of tasty food puns for the gluttonous.) Show us someone who’s never started their day with dessert, and we’ll show you a person who’s never woken up to Katy Perry and her smorgasbord of sexual innuendos prepared. [Read More]

A decade ago, Odd Future — a ragtag group of rabble-rousing artists, skaters, and jokesters hailing from Southern California — stormed the gates of the rap game without the support of the major labels and the popular bloggers that, for a time, acted as intermediaries between listeners and the endless flood of new music available online.

Peeta! Five Nights at Freddy’s is starting to look less like a video game and more like a Halloween horror movie.

Victoria Mont Was Built for This

The Grammy-nominated songwriter has been on the cusp of stardom for years. Jaguar II should (hopefully) change that. Photo: Ashley Olah Victoria Monét starts with the show tunes. “Judy Garland was one of the first singers I saw on film,” she tells me, picking up an old copy of The Wizard of Oz’s soundtrack. “‘Over the Rainbow’ connects with me a lot.” Cosmic Vinyl, an unassuming record store on Sunset Boulevard lined with ‘70s-style wood paneling, is a fitting spot to find Monét, an artist known for melding older eras of music with more modern sounds.

Vincent DOnofrio to Play Kingpin in Netflixs Daredevil

Two weeks ago, Netflix and Marvel announced that they found their Daredevil, Charlie Cox. So, as these things go, today they have announced his villain. Vincent D’Onofrio will play Kingpin. Portrayed by Michael Clarke Duncan in the 2003 Daredevil movie, Kingpin is Daredevil’s archenemy and, well, a mob kingpin, albeit a super big and strong one.
