'Black Widow' Music Video Lets Rita Ora & Iggy Azalea Take On 'Kill Bill'

0

Rita Ora and Iggy Azalea debuted the music video for their collaborative song "Black Widow," and -- surprise! -- there's acting involved. No doubt, they picked up sort of skill from cameos in "Fast & Furious" franchise. The video starts off at Big Wanda's, where Iggy is a waitress and Rita is arm candy for a douchey guy. Big Wanda says lines like, "What did the fox say? Nothing!" and T.I. makes an appearance. The singers turn into superheroes/ ninjas/ "Kill Bill"-inspired women who fight said douchey guy. Get it.


Matthew Weiner Remembers Lauren Bacall's Amazing Appearance On 'The Sopranos'

Lauren Bacall, who died on Tuesday at the age of 89 after suffering a stroke, spent the twilight years of her career taking some big risks. She starred for Lars von Trier in two movies, lent her voice to an episode of "Family Guy" and, best of all, played herself on an episode of "The Sopranos." Bacall appeared in the Season 6 episode "Luxury Lounge," which focused on a trip Christopher Moltisanti (Michael Imperioli) and Carmine Lupertazzi (Ray Abruzzo) took to Los Angeles to pitch a movie. While there, Christopher and Carmine meet Bacall as they're talking about the project with Ben Kingsley. The episode's credited writer was Matthew Weiner.

"I'm very proud to have been a part of that. My name's on the script, but the story -- as many things -- comes from David Chase," Weiner, who went on to create "Mad Men," told HuffPost Live in an interview on Wednesday. "There is a line I wrote in the script that is frequently quoted back to me, which is that Carmine Lupertazzi, the mob boss who is out there trying to make a Hollywood movie, says to Lauren Bacall at the end of their scene together, 'Enjoy your success.' It's like, 'Who are you?' Why are you saying that to her?'"



Bacall's final scene in the episode, much like the series itself, marries comedy and violence together: a masked Christopher robs Bacall of a gift basket and knocks her to the ground during the altercation. Bacall's response: "Jesus, my fucking arm."

"She loved it," Weiner recalled of the sequence. "She had never gotten to swear before."

Weiner said having Bacall guest star on "The Sopranos" was an important moment is his career and that even his parents came to the set to visit when she was there.

"This is a part of Hollywood history, and she was everything you expected her to be," Weiner said. "A true artist. It's hard to explain it."

Weiner appeared on HuffPost Live to promote his new film, "Are You Here." Watch the full interview here.

If 'The Baby-Sitters Club' Came Out In 2014, The Covers Would Blow Your Mind

In the 1980's and 1990's, Ann M. Martin's beloved book series "The Baby-sitter's Club" provided young readers with fun, family-oriented narratives that tackled more serious issues as the protagonists -- a crew of middle school girls who were really into childcare -- navigated adolescence.

However, there's one problem that the members of the Club didn't have to deal with: the ever-questionable Tinder date.

In these fabulous illustrations below, blogger and artist Kate Gavino has revamped the covers of some of Martin's beloved books. But there's one catch: the sitters are now illustrated as if they were millennials, coming of age in 2014.

For example, in this one, Mallory must navigate the perils of Tinder and Snapchat.

'Thug Notes' Re-Read 'The Giver' So You Don't Have To

In preparation for the film adaptation of Lois Lowry's "The Giver," you might want to re-read the actual book, since you probably haven't looked at it since the seventh grade.

But in case you don't have time, "Thug Notes" is here to recount the tale in only the way "Thugs Notes" could -- very thuggishly.

"This hood ain't got no war, disease, hunger or poverty," says Thug Notes. "Truth is though, the only reason peacekeeping is so chill is 'cuz everyone's sippin' on the philosophy of sameness."

Yup, that pretty much sums it up.

Robin Williams Graffiti Art Appears In Serbia (PHOTO)

As fans of Robin Williams mourn the actor's passing, memorials to the beloved comedian have popped up all around the world.

The most recent addition to the growing collection of tributes appeared Wednesday in Serbia. Unidentified street artists painted a graffiti mural of William's face on a wall under the Brankov Bridge in Belgrade overnight.

Fans of the late actor quickly shared the touching tribute on Reddit and social media.






A video posted on YouTube by RT's Ruptly TV shows the graffiti from another angle.



Small memorials to the Academy Award-winning actor, who was found dead in his California home Monday, have appeared on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, outside his home and at real-life locations of some of his famous movie scenes. In Massachusetts, Bostonians penned chalk messages near the iconic bench featured in "Good Will Hunting" to memorialize the funnyman.

Bad Suns' 'Language & Perspective' Explores Growing Spaces Through Duality

Our unlimited access to music of all kinds is both amazing and overwhelming. Keeping your playlists fresh, we'll be doing the leg work to help you discover your next favorite artist.

before the beat drops

I wasn't sold on Bad Suns after hearing their breakthrough single, "Cardiac Arrest," the first time. It has minimal verses that gets your head bobbing. The hook's vocal lines are impossible not to sing along with as you groove out to the punchy riffs and sped-up hi-hat hits. It's an infectious radio smash, and that was exactly the problem. It was almost too perfect.



It's not that I didn't appreciate the song, but it just brought to mind a number of other acts that reside somewhere within the alternative-indie sphere. They put a few stellar singles out and then when the album drops, there is little substance to be found in-between the hits. Fortunately, Bad Suns have not fallen victim to the single-driven paradigm built by the Internet. Their debut album, "Language & Perspective," never loses its luster from start to finish.

“As kids from a generation who were completely brought up in a time of single records, the idea of the album was so important to us," Bad Suns vocalist/guitarist Christo Bowman told HuffPost Entertainment. "We wanted to make a record without so much saying, ‘Fuck being in a single-based industry’ or whatever. Let’s just make a record that from start to finish where we think each song is just as strong or strong than the one that precedes it and is just an album that is worth listening to.”

Rounded out by members Miles Morris (drums), Gavin Bennett (bass) and Ray Libby (guitar), Bad Suns is a four-piece dedicated to the sounds of guitar, bass and drums. Largely influenced by acts such as The Clash, The Police and U2 -- although Bowman was sure to note that they listen to a lot of contemporary acts as well -- "Language & Perspective" is often a contradiction between sonic and lyrical content.



“When it comes down to it, it’s just about entering and dealing with young adulthood," Bowman said. "Making mistakes, learning from mistakes, falling in love, falling out, where you’re going to be. We wanted to make it hopeful as well as slightly introspective. I think that ultimately the idea is about accepting the hand you’ve been given, accepting it and making the most of it and understanding that things are the way that they are. And the only thing you can do with that, that’s up to you. It’s how you choose to act and what actions you choose to take.”

It's in the opener, "Matthew James," that Bowman lays out exactly where his mind is at, singing, "I find myself enamored with an explanation that doesn't exist." One of the most all-around upbeat cuts, it isn't until penultimate track, "Sleep Paralysis," that you realize Bowman has strayed to darker spaces from time to time. The most aggressive song on the album, it builds and builds until the final third where the bass, tom smashes and crackling electronic blares take over. While it seems a world away from "Matthew James," both songs are split from the same stem.

“There’s a lot of songs on this record that work kind of like brother and sister," Bowman said. "Their based on the same idea, but you can have two completely different emotions about this idea. For instance, 'Sleep Paralysis' is kind of the other half of 'Matthew James.' It’s that kind of fearing where you’re going to be and who you’re going to turn into and what are people going to remember you by. 'Matthew James' is kind of the more hopeful version, the album starting out with this person who has no idea what the fuck is going on and finds peace in the idea that nobody knows what is going on. And 'Sleep Paralysis' is at the end of the day you have to deal with yourself when you go to bed and the thoughts can be paralyzing, so it’s the darker side of it. It’s about those moments where you feel that you can do nothing about it and it feels hopeless.”



Prepping for a fall tour with New Politics, it was during their spring run with The 1975 that the band made a name for itself. Bowman explained that when the tour began in Los Angeles, their hometown, few people knew who they were. By the time the tour wrapped up in Baltimore, a city they had never played in before, and the room was completely alive, a packed crowd singing along. However, as Bowman previously mentioned in a Billboard article, there was a brief moment when they thought Bad Suns would call it a day soon before their album had even released.

“It got to a point where those first recordings we put out we were really confident in and showcased what it was that we wanted to be doing," Bowman said. "Then we started showing some new tunes to people that we had prospects of working with and they didn’t quite believe in it. We felt really confident in them, but at some point it’s really easy to doubt yourself in a situation like that, for a minute. We were like, ‘Shit, what if they are right? What if this isn’t the right direction?’ But once we put the songs out we realized that this is us, and it was a really nice turn around.”

Thankfully, the band inked a deal with Vagrant Records soon after their release of "Cardiac Arrest," earning plenty of chart love since.

“As long as you are honest in what you are creating, and there’s a reason for to what you are doing, there’s no reason to doubt yourself," Bowman said. "That’s ultimately where happiness derives from.”

Michael Cera's New Indie Album Is Totally Surprising, Absolutely Awesome

Michael Cera dropped a surprise album a few days ago, becoming 2014's new male Beyonce.

The title of the album is "True That," and you can stream it live on Cera's BandCamp page for free or purchase it for $7. Cera's acting pal Jonah Hill also tweeted out a link to the album, praising his good friend.

"True That" is 18 tracks of samples, covers and original melancholy goodness. One thing we know for sure? This new album is already more important (to us at least) than breakfast and family. Take a listen for yourself:


'Love Your Lines' Instagram Account Celebrates Stretch Marks As Beautiful, Not 'Flaws'

0
0
A new Instagram account, @LoveYourLines, is beautifully celebrating women's stretch marks.

The account was started by two East Coast moms, who asked to remain anonymous. The creators were inspired to feature the stretch marks and other lines on women's bodies after a discussion about how their own bodies had changed after bearing children. They started the Instagram account, put out a call for submissions, and were stunned by the response they got in just one night.



At the time of writing, the creators had received over 70 submissions, both anonymous and identified, with captions detailing each woman's relationship to her stretch marks. One poignant caption featured on the Instagram account reads:
I have not (yet) birthed any children, but my body has changed and stretched causing me to have stretchmarks on various places of my body. They serve as a reminder of the years my legs carried me as I sprinted around the track, and the many times I tried to change myself to fit the mold of what I thought society wanted me to look like...smaller waist...smaller legs...smaller everything...then bigger legs...bigger butt...and so on.




An estimated 80 percent of people have stretchmarks, which are often caused by rapid growth, weight changes or hormonal changes. Pregnancy is often the biggest cause -- leaving moms with "tiger stripes" -- but men aren't unaffected by stretch marks and women who haven't had children get them too.

"I found it interesting that all types of women have stretch marks because I've had them on my thighs since I was a teenager," one of the founders, a 31-year-old wedding and lifestyle photographer, told The Huffington Post over email. "So even though I'm a mom (which gave me a few more) I've been coming to terms with my marks for a long time now. I'm also very thin so looking at me with clothes on, you'd think I had no body issues."



The creators of @LoveYourLines intend to celebrate all women's bodies, regardless of age, weight or if they've had children.

"Even though we are moms, we both had 'stretchies' before having kids and we are aware that women get them for different reasons at different times," the second creator, a 25-year-old entrepreneur, told HuffPost. "Both of us are thrilled to have had such an amazing response in less than 24 hours."

This Guy United The World With A Rubik's Cube

0

How many people does it take to solve a Rubik's Cube? While it usually only takes one skilled solver, a recent college graduate decided to invite nearly 100 people in 11 countries to help complete a single 3-D combination puzzle.

After graduating from Harvard University in May, Nuseir Yassin backpacked around the world for two months. Packing light, the economics major decided to bring his Rubik's Cube around the world with him as a way to de-stress. It wasn't until later in his trip that he came up with the idea to connect all the countries he planned to visit with a single puzzle.

To solve the cube, Yassin devised his own approach beforehand and plotted out the moves. He then asked people in each country to complete a single move while he filmed them with his iPhone -- or, in the case of an underwater shot, a GoPro Hero 3+.

"When I asked people to do their move, I told them which move they have to take," Yassin explained to The Huffington Post. "It's basically impossible to have people know what move to make if you just hand them a Rubik's Cube and say 'go.'"

Yassin traveled from England to Thailand, asking helpful bystanders along the way to solve one move at a time. While it was easier to explain the project to pedestrians in English-speaking countries, and his native Israel, Yassin got along just fine in other nations where there was a clear language barrier. It just took some extra time and hand motions to convey instructions to people who did not share a common language.

"I had to spend an average of 5 minutes demonstrating what I was asking from them," Yassin said of his experience in countries where English is not very common, such as Viethingtnam and Cambodia. "This is, after all, an odd thing to ask a random stranger. I'd say, eventually, I got much better at asking the right people to do the move."

Watch 84 people, one monkey and one snake in 11 countries help solve a Rubik's Cube in Yassin's video, above.

Prints of Louvre masterpieces found covered in fungus

A collection of prints illustrating well-known works in the Louvre, rediscovered after years in storage at Ecuador’s Casa de la Cultura, during which time they became covered in mould, have been restored and are on shown in Quito.
Nearly 90 prints were brought to Ecuador some time ago as teaching aids for students of the country’s School of Fine Arts, which was founded in 1904. Elisabeth Vigée Le Brun’s Madame Lebrun with Daughter, 1789, and Eugene Delacroix’s Barque of Dante, 1822, are among the works reproduced.

Michael Cera 'Never Had The Courage To Release' His Own Music, Until Now

0

Michael Cera released a surprise album this week, and was almost instantly compared to Beyonce. He doesn't mind the juxtaposition.

"I mean, it does feel good to get the comparison," Cera said in an interview with HuffPost Entertainment. "I get compared to her for a lot of other reasons and it's nice to finally get compared to her musically."

All jokes aside, Cera is pretty excited (and surprised) about all the hype his lo-fi folk album has gotten so far. He quietly released the album a few days ago, telling HuffPost Entertainment he did so without any expectations.

"I'd never had the courage to release anything I'd made musically, and finally a friend said that he thought I was being too careful with my music," he said. "I mean, it takes a bit of a leap of faith when you’re giving something to the whole world to piss on and talk about and pull apart, but at one point I felt totally okay with it."

michael cera music

It was after that moment when Cera "stuck a bunch of tracks together," called the album "True That," and uploaded the music to his BandCamp page. Pretty soon, good friend Jonah Hill was tweeting out a link to the album, which led many to believe Hill had "ruined" the element of surprise. Cera explained that there was "nothing to ruin."

"I don't think people understand how casual an experience it was," he said. "I mean, I was just hoping that people would find it."

Not only did people "find" the album, many media outlets wrote something up about Cera's music (including The Huffington Post). While Cera explained that he's quite used to reading reviews, whether they're kind or not, he said the truth always lies somewhere in the middle.

"When you approach a project, usually you have this delusion it’ll be really, really good, or tell yourself that it's going to be completely terrible," he said. "I always say it's somewhere between those two extremes."

album

For those who thought it was a bit extreme for Cera, an actor, to release a music album (though he was a guest bassist for Mister Heavenly and even sang on a Weezer track), he said that recording process came about very naturally. The album was mostly done at his home in New York, with the exception of a song recorded at a friend's house in South America. Everything was done using GarageBand on his laptop, after "getting tangled one too many times" in his 4-track cassette recorder.

Since Cera had no set date for the album, he found time to make music when he was bored at home or up late at night, and would later email the song to a friend. Musically, he cites Alden Penner, formerly of The Unicorns, as his biggest influence.

His album artwork had less of a thought-out approach, as he said the photo he chose is of his sister's boyfriend's daughter, and the candid moment proved to be the just right size for his BandCamp profile. "I've also always loved that photo," he said, "it was just a nice moment hanging out in the basement."

Though he currently doesn't plan on touring with the album ("I don't even know what that means") you can catch Michael Cera in his Broadway debut Sept. 11 in the play "This Is Our Youth."

INFOGRAPHIC: Are Women Better Writers Than Men?

0
0
In spite of being shunned by most literary reviews, do women actually have better writing chops than men?

It's an odd question -- one we wish were irrelevant. But it's a sad truth that ever since novel-writing was a thing, women have been using pen names to mask their gender lest their prestige or sales suffer.

But a new poll conducted by Grammarly suggests that, if George Eliot were alive today, she might be better off sticking with her given name as a byline. When asked a slew of questions regarding perceived differences in writing technique and quality based on gender, over 3,000 respondents indicated that they believe women are superior penman.

Readers believed men were more likely to "get to the point," whereas women were more likely to focus on "character development." Women were believed more likely to write about people (as opposed to "things") than men, and were also thought more likely to craft long sentences.

It's unclear whether these beliefs are rooted in actual trends, or stereotypes about Hemingway-esque masculinity and Woolf-like meandering. But it certainly could explain why J.K. Rowling chose a male pen name, Robert Galbraith, for her plot-heavy mystery novels. Regardless, Grammarly concluded: "Women tend to be more descriptive in their writing, and spend more time developing a greater variety of characters than men. Perhaps as a result, women are generally regarded to be better writers than men."

This Week, You Must Listen To Sinead Harnett (And These 10 Other Songs)

0
0
Each week, the HuffPost Entertainment team will compile and share some of our favorite tracks discovered across the web, whether they are brand new tunes, new music videos or newly discovered artists.

Sinead Harnett - “Paradise”



Sinead Harnett first popped up on our radar with her collaboration with Disclosure. Now, the London-based artist is bringing her soulful R&B croons to her own tracks, releasing "N.O.W." EP earlier this week. But before that dropped, Harnett let go of the funky "Paradise," and it is nothing but good vibes all around.

King Green - “Nothing”



King Green not only released a new track with his band RDGLDGRN this week, but also pushed out a solo cut. "Nothing" is a percussion-driven feet-stomper that has Green thinking about what it would be like to do, well, nothing (and yet, still doing the most).

From Indian Lakes - “Ghost”



When it comes to blending indie and pop, few do it better than From Indian Lakes. Their second release, "Ghost," from the upcoming album "Absent Sounds," proves that to be true.

Well$ - “Youth In Revolt Pt. 2” ft. King Mez



If you aren't sure of what has been steadily boiling up in North Carolina, look no further than Well$ and King Mez.

Jon Bellion - “Simple and Sweet”



Rising label Visionary Music Group is on a path reminiscent of TDE's ascent. Jon Bellion is the group's pop powerhouse, but his production and soaring vocals can easily extend into hip-hop, capable of laying down a 16 with ease. "Simple and Sweet," off of his upcoming album "The Definition," is a relaxing tune that gives you a last second pump-up turn when you least expect it.

Alex Wiley - “Splash Game (Self Doubt)”



Alex Wiley's "Splash Game" is all about reminding listeners to embrace their own awesomeness. Filmed in Toronto, Wiley delivers some hilarious visuals to pair with this uplifting track, including little bits of animation, text and some guy waving Canadian flags like it's his job.

This Will Destroy You - “Invitation”



Post-rockers This Will Destroy You are ready to deliver their new album, "Another Language," and on "Invitation," the band's ethereal ambience is given just the right dose of chaos.

Jeezy - “Beautiful” ft. The Game & Rick Ross



Jeezy recruits The Game and Rick Ross for his latest release, "Beautiful," a soulful track that features each of the rappers describing the things that make their lives beautiful over the top of some soothing female vocals.

Valise - “Charlie Gray”



For fans of Copeland, or just those who generally enjoy fantastic indie rock, Valise is your new favorite band.

Vic Mensa - “Wimme Nah”



Vic Mensa delivers another hard-hitter, receiving production from Kaytranada. Are you with Vic now?

Jason Feathers - “De Oro”

jason feathers

Bon Iver's Justin Vernon teamed up with S. Carey and Astronautalis to craft an indie-rap album, of sorts. That's right, Bon Iver's rap album. However, after Vernon's collaboration with Kanye West on "Yeezus," this shouldn't be too surprising; you can hear its influence throughout. Stream the album over at Pitchfork.

Proof Gavin DeGraw Is Much More Than The 'One Tree Hill' Theme Song

0
0
Most people know Gavin DeGraw for his 2003 chart-topping single "I Don't Want To Be," otherwise known as the theme song to "One Tree Hill."

But after seeing Gavin DeGraw perform at Central Park's SummerStage in New York City on Wednesday, Aug. 13, it appears the 37-year-old has much more up his sleeve than CW nostalgia. Here's proof:

1. Let's face it, pretty much every song DeGraw releases climbs the music charts. To name a few: "Chariot," "In Love With A Girl," "Not Over You," "Soldier," "Sweeter" and "Best I Ever Had."


2. Growing up in the Catskills, DeGraw always had his inner New Yorker to push him to follow his dreams. Despite a friend telling him he would never make it in the music business, the singer-songwriter moved to New York City at the age of 20 and gave it a try. "If you're out there and you're a dreamer like me ... it's never too late," DeGraw told the audience on Wednesday. "If you feel like you got to do it, just get out there."

3. DeGraw also has quite the sense of humor. After singing the first three songs at SummerStage, he told the crowd, "If you're not having a good time, I encourage you to lie online. Lie your asses off."
gavin degraw

4. He has another song from a 2000s classic: "We Belong Together," which was featured in "Tristan & Isolde," starring James Franco.


5. DeGraw is very passionate and proud of his bandmates, who he cheered for at the end of his concert. #WhatAGuy.
gavin degraw

6. DeGraw used to be a dog walker while struggling to make it in New York, but says has no one to thank but his fans for letting him do what he loves for a living. "It's a real tribute for me to come out here and be able to entertain you guys as my career," he gushed. "Thank you guys so much for permitting that to happen. I appreciate it so much, I love you for that."

7. And last but not least: that fedora is pretty much everything.

Tetris With Pillows Looks Oddly Comfy

Tetris is a game full of building suspense: will the shapes fit? Can you change their positions fast enough? Will you get rid of that extra line before the stack reaches the top?

So many factors to consider!

Well, good thing Niko Schatz has come up with an innovative way to take the stress out of the game. Watch the video above to see his animated version of Tetris with shapes that look like bouncy, soft pillows. Watching them fall ever-so-gently off one another might make you want to take a nap.

The softbody effect was made in Cinema4D and is pretty hypnotic to watch -- even with that stressful Tetris theme music.


Gorgeous Time-Lapse Whisks You Away For A 3-Week Paris Vacation

Photographer Paul Richardson took a three-week trip to Paris and fell in love -- with the famed city, of course.

He was so taken in by the "City of Light" that he created a time-lapse video tribute, aptly titled "J'adore Paris."

"I recently embarked on a three week trip to Paris, to try and capture the city in all its glory," he wrote below his Vimeo video. "I had never visited the city before, and was quickly struck with how beautiful it is. My aim was to capture the classic sights; ornate buildings and typical Parisian activities, and contrast that to the modern business side, towering glass glad skyscrapers and fast paced life."

After you watch this video, you'll be in love, too.

Watching Adults Try To Define Teenage Slang Will Make You Feel Old -- Really Old

Teens' favorite slang words seem come and go faster than Miley Cyrus posting a new Instagram selfie. So it's understandable that adults can get a little behind on the times.

But watching grown-ups try to define slang terms of the younger set is another (hilarious) thing, entirely.

In this video from BuzzFeedYellow, a group of well-intentioned -- but largely clueless -- adults try their hand at explaining what a "bae" is, what it means to "turn up" and more.

Valiant effort, everyone. And thanks for making us feel old and out of touch.
