Monday Make Out

February 8th, 2010

Eclipse

* Pictures from the third Twilight film Eclipse have been released. Groundbreaking? No. But, it’s another four months until the movie hits theatres. I takes what I gets.

* Billy Corgan and Jessica Simpson have actually recorded a song together. Can someone call 1997, get Billy Corgan on the phone and ask him what the hell is going on?

* Lily Allen wants to make her performance a memorable one at this year’s Brit Awards. Lily has set her sights on entering the awards show in a plane. A freakin’ plane? 16 year-old Miley Cyrus dancing on a pole during the Teen Choice Awards doesn’t seem that crazy now, does it? Nope, still crazy.

* Score: A Hockey Musical, has already started filming in Toronto and is still adding to its star line up! In addition to Olivia Newton-John and Hawksley Workman, Nelly Furtado is now set to make her acting debut as a crazed hockey fan. If there is a scene with Olivia Newton-John jersey’ing Nelly Furtado, I guarantee it will do an extra $10 million at the box office.

White Stripes ballet comes to Canada

February 8th, 2010

The National Ballet of Canada will feature Chroma, a ballet set to the music of The White Stripes during their 2010/2011 season. The ballet, choreographed by Britain’s Wayne McGregor, is a piece for five couples outfitted in flesh tone dance wear. The ballet was a hit when it was staged at Covent Gardens by England’s Royal Ballet.

The orchestral arrangements for Chroma were commissioned in 2005 by Richard Russell, head of the record label XL, as a gift to the White Stripes’ Jack and Meg White. Three of their songs, “The Hardest Button To Button”, “Aluminium” and “Blue Orchid”, were re-arranged and first played to the band as a surprise in Cincinnati Music Hall, Ohio.

The Canadian staging will run from Nov 24 to 28, 2010 at the Four Seasons Centre for the Performing Arts in Toronto.

Jack White has been invited to see the premiere of the ballet.
