Father's Day With James Durbin

James Durbin & Family
Happy Father's Day to all of you Dads out there! I thought I would honor the day here on Entertain Me with a photo of one of my favorite people, James Durbin, his wife Heidi and their son Hunter and daughter Kinzee.

James as you will recall was a runner-up on season 10 of American Idol.

With two albums under his belt, the head banging Memories of a Beautiful Disaster and the pop oriented Celebrate, James is hard at work on his third outing, and like all of you Durbinators out there I can't wait to hear what he comes up with.

You can check out a new track titled: Santa Cruz below -

No "Bad Blood" From Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift helped couple Jesse & Lindsey Rasmussen announce they are having a baby.
Jesse who work for 102.3 The Max in Louisville KY met Taylor during the usual industry media meet and greet backstage at her show.
Bringing along photos of their ultra-sound and a sign that said: "Baby's First Concert." They concealed the sign and pics in case they lost their nerve to ask Swift to help them announce the upcoming event.
According to Jesse, Taylor was so warm and welcoming that they bit the bullet and asked. 
Ms. Swift happily obliged, resulting in the sweet image above.
Congratulations to Jess & Lindsey - and Taylor Swift for being a true sweetheart!

Brandi Glanville Stifled

Brandi Glanville: Muzzle is the New Black 
It's a dirty job but somebody had to do it. Unfiltered Real Housewife of Beverly Hills Brandi Glanville is out of season six.

She is not leaving on her own volition, Bravo did the deed. 

This being the only Housewives show I indulge in gives me free reign to comment. While Brandi brought drama to the show, what she did was for the most part jeopardized people with her reckless non-caring attitude. 

Put simply she was downright mean for no apparent reason, toxic. Her antics on season five made me quite uncomfortable.

Rumor has it that Brandi is upset but she understands and is grateful for the opportunity.

Guess it's back to bashing your ex-husband Eddie Cibrian and his new wife Leann Rimes.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out girl!

Let The "Sunshine" In

Get Down Tonight!


KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND HEADS TO WASHINGTON, D.C. FOR AMERICA'S NATIONAL INDEPENDENCE DAY CELEBRATION, A CAPITOL FOURTH, ON PBS

KC and The Sunshine Band Joins Barry Manilow, Alabama, Nicole Scherzinger, Hunter Hayes, Meghan Linsey, the National Symphony Orchestra, and more! 


It wouldn't be the 4th of July without fireworks and sunshine, KC and the Sunshine Band that is!
 
Just announced, household-name 70s dance group, KC and The Sunshine Band, will help to celebrate America's 239th birthday by performing their top-selling, multi-platinum dance hits like "(Shake, Shake, Shake) Shake Your Booty," "Get Down Tonight," "That's The Way (I Like It)" and more as part of A CAPITOL FOURTH, broadcast LIVE on PBS from the U.S. Capitol on Saturday, July 4, 2015 from 8 to 9:30 p.m. ET.

The band will appear along with Barry Manilow, Alabama, Nicole Scherzinger, Hunter Hayes, Meghan Linsey, Lang Lang, Ronan Tynan, Robert Davi and the National Symphony Orchestra.

Celebrating the March release of their new 60s cover album, Feeling You! The 60s, The Founder of The Dance Revolution, Harry Wayne "KC" Casey, and his high-energy Sunshine Band plan to bring their ultra catchy Miami-born pop, funk and R&B sound to the celebration, backed by one of the greatest fireworks displays in the country. With sales of over 100 million records, nine GRAMMY nominations, three GRAMMY Awards and an American Music Award, the band is still known today as one of the most progressive acts of the 70s, and their music is still discovered daily by millions around the world through its continual placement in top box office movies, commercials, video games and more.

"It's a great honor for us to be a part of this birthday celebration for America," said Casey. "We're fortunate to be celebrating our 35th anniversary of our biggest hits this year, so it's rewarding to see that they have stood the test of time, and when our nation comes together to celebrate something as significant as our nation's birthday and our freedom, we can be a part of it. We hope our performance brings smiles to people's faces."

According to event organizers, the top-rated, award-winning extravaganza reaches an audience of hundreds of thousands, and millions more at home through the live broadcast, as well as our troops serving around the world on the American Forces Network. Twenty cameras will be positioned around the city, including the U.S. Capitol, the White House and the Washington Monument for the national broadcast. A CAPITOL FOURTH can also be heard live on the radio over NPR member stations nationwide.
