Shut up, put the record on, drop the needle and crank up the volume. The first teaser for Martin Scorsese and Mick Jagger’s HBO series, “Vinyl,” has arrived, and it’s pretty awesome. There’s guitar-smashing, coke-snorting, guns, fighting and ’70s wardrobes and all to a rock ‘n’ roll soundtrack we can’t wait to hear more of. […]
If you were a kid in the ’90s, you can likely remember that brief, shining period when The Spice Girls reigned supreme.

It was as if the closed caption technician had used the restroom, and a wayward cat had wandered in and decided to take a nap […]
Celebrity Twitter and Instagram feuds are a dime a dozen these days. We’ve seen Katy Perry face off against Taylor Swift, Khloe Kardashian slam Amber Rose, and of course, Blac Chyna, a grown woman, tease and taunt her ex-man Tyga and his reported girlfriend (emphasis on the girl), Kylie Jenner. In today’s news, the 27-year-old […]
Gallery 1988, the Los Angeles Gallery with a sweet tooth for pop culture, is currently selling artworks based on the 1985 whodunit “Clue” — the movie, not the board game. With works as affordably priced as $25, the digital exhibition is a gold mine for anyone who has ever suspected Mrs. White in the conservatory […]
