Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce got big reputations. Yes, I am perpetually on Reputation (Taylor’s Version) watch and will use any excuse to quote “End Game.” The more cringeworthy, the better! In this case, Kelce and Swift are each nominated at the upcoming 2024 People’s Choice Awards.

Anyway, Swift is up for five awards: Female Artist Of The Year, Pop Artist Of The Year, Concert Tour Of The Year (The Eras Tour), Movie Of The Year (Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour), and Social Celebrity Of The Year. Kelce, meanwhile, is up for Athlete Of The Year alongside Coco Gauff, Giannis Antetokounmpo, LeBron James, Lionel Messi, Sabrina Ionescu, Simone Biles, and Stephen Curry.

Kelce and Swift are shockingly not nominated for Most Mania-Inducing Celebrity Couple Of The Year, but if that were a category, they would be a surer bet to win than the reigning Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. Although, to be fair, they are not the only couple sharing People’s Choice Awards nods, as Kelsea Ballerini and Chase Stokes are each nominated as well.

The 2024 People’s Choice Awards is scheduled for February 18 at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California. The ceremony will broadcast live beginning at 8 p.m. ET across E!, NBC, and Peacock.

Ava DuVernay Parties With Taraji P. Henson, Samuel L. Jackson, David Oyelowo & More For “Origin” Film

January 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

While her latest film, Origin, encompasses a more somber tone, Ava DuVernay was all smiles as she celebrated the feature. Origin arrived a month ago, on December 8, but the film remains a hot topic among cinephiles. DuVernay’s illustrious filmography spans movies focusing on Black culture, community, racism, and injustice—and Origin isn’t for the weak.

Origin is based on Isabel Wilkerson’s bestseller Caste: The Origin of Our Discontents. The Pulitzer Prize winner released her much-talked-about book in 2020, which centers on her personal journey. Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor stars as Wilkerson in the biographical film that begins with the murder of Trayvon Martin in 2012. Likening racism to India’s caste system, DuVernay, through her lens and a cast of characters, weaves through cultural experiences from the Holocaust to the Slave Trade, and examines the links between Nazi Germany and American laws. Although the film may be on the heavier end of the spectrum, audiences praised DuVernay’s latest efforts.

Among the applause are celebrated actors and industry professionals who joined the filmmaker at the Sunset Tower Hotel in Hollywood, Calif., last night. Threads hosted the event and also celebrated Black actors who are contenders this award season. Guests included Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor, Samuel L. Jackson and his wife LaTayna Ricardson Jackson, The Color Purple‘s Colan Domingo, Danielle Brooks, and Taraji P. Henson; Insecure‘s Sarunas Jackson; American Fiction‘s Jeffrey Wright; David Oyelowo, Laz Alonso, Gabrielle Dennis, and legendary actor Glynn Turman, among others.

Watch the trailer for Origin below and skim through a few highlights from the evening.

Return to wearing pink on Wednesdays because the new musical edition of Mean Girls is just around the corner. In 2004, the Mark Waters-directed film stormed the globe and overtook pop culture. The movie starred Lindsay Lohan as Cady Heron, a coy teen who transfers to a new school after being raised in Africa. She clashes with The Plastics, led by Regina George, perfectly portrayed by Rachel McAdams. The cult classic is a fan-favorite that has been quoted and meme’d for two decades, and in just a few days, the next iteration of Mean Girls is set to arrive in theaters.

Some believe she gave a subtle nod to the recently released film The Color Purple in the Natalia Barzilai design. Further, the Grammy winner also posed alongside her collaborator, Reneé Rapp. The two collided on “Not My Fault” from the Mean Girls soundtrack.

Tina Fey and the feature’s producer, Saturday Night Live legend Lorne Michaels, were also on the scene, along with Lohan, who looked stunning. Check out a few highlights from the event and the official trailer for the Mean Girls musical below.

Cedric The Entertainer’s 7 Funniest Movies

January 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Cedric The Entertainer is currently trending due to allegations of joke thievery from Katt Williams. The comedian, born Cedric Antonio Kyles, is one of many victims of William’s now-viral appearance on Club Shay Shay. Whether the allegations are true or not, Cedric The Entertainer is an acclaimed comedian who has amassed nearly 100 credited appearances in some of the greatest comedic projects in the last several decades. After making his breakout on-screen appearance as Bo in 1998’s Ride, Cedric has gone on to become a household name, with his trademark comedic delivery leaving audiences in stitches. Here’s a look at seven of the actor’s funniest movies.

7. A Haunted House (2013)

In the horror comedy A Haunted House, Cedric The Entertainer plays Father Williams. Father Williams is a priest who is called upon to exercise demons found in a young couple’s home. The film serves as a satirical parody of modern horror films such as the Paranormal Activity franchise. The hilarious on-screen chemistry of Cedric The Entertainer and Marlon Wayans is a bedrock for the film’s plot. The movie exists in a similar vein to the iconic Scary Movie franchise, examining well-tread tropes from genre films with a comedic lens. Though Cedric’s role in the film is relatively minor, he makes a lasting impression and stands out as one of the funniest elements of the laugh-out-loud film.

6. Madagascar (2005)

In addition to appearing in live-action, Cedric has lent his voice to a number of classic animated comedies. In the 2005 hit family film Madagascar, Cedric’s vocal talent shines as Maurice, the laid-back lemur. The film holds an ensemble of highly talented comedians, including Chris Rock, Ben Stiller, and Sacha Baron Cohen. Throughout the film, Maurice is paired with Sacha Baron Cohen’s King Julian, the leader of the titular island’s lemur tribe. Maurice frequently attempts to advise the king with forward-thinking and rational solutions and is often ignored to great humorous effect. Cedric The Entertainer has reprised this role in several spin-offs and sequels, proving the versatility of his comedy.

5. Be Cool (2005)

The very same year that Madagascar premiered, Cedric The Entertainer starred in the massive ensemble comedy Be Cool. The film, which continues the story of the 1995 film Get Shorty, centers on a gangster turned film producer who sets his sights on the music business. In the movie, Cedric portrays a rap mogul who balances the rough and rugged lifestyle of a street thug with the glamorous world of fame and fortune. His character, Sin LaSalle, is often flanked by a posse of cohorts who provide a hilarious back-and-forth charisma for the trained comedian to riff against. Though the film lacks praise from traditional critics, fans of the Entertainer’s work will surely find themselves laughing.

4. Barbershop 2: Back In Business (2004)

The 59-year-old comedian gained widespread recognition for his pivotal role in the Barbershop film franchise. In the hilarious and heartfelt sequel to the 2002 original, Cedric The Entertainer appears alongside Ice Cube and many returning talent to crack wise about modern pop culture and the state of the hood. Barbershop 2: Back in Business sees the titular salon face challenges as a trendy chain opens up next door. This forces Cedric’s Eddie Walker and his crew of barbers to spring into action to save their small business in the wake of a corporate takeover.

3. Johnson Family Vacation (2004)

In this family road trip comedy, Cedric takes on the role of Nate Johnson, the patriarch of the Johnson family. Chaos ensues as the family embarks on a cross-country journey to attend a family reunion, and Cedric’s comedy shines through. His interactions with the eccentric characters encountered on the trip and the mishaps that befall the Johnsons make Johnson Family Vacation a laugh-out-loud comedy with a ton of heart. The film also serves as the very first feature film credit for Aquaman‘s Jason Momoa.

2. Code Name: The Cleaner (2007)

Code Name: The Cleaner features Cedric The Entertainer in the lead role as Jake Rogers, a man who has lost his memory after mysteriously waking up next to a dead FBI agent. As he shadows a secret government agent played by Lucy Liu, Jake slowly regains his memory and begins to piece together his identity as either an average janitor or a deep-cover spy, depending on who he asks. This film features Cedric front-and-center and allows the comedian to flex a wide range of comedic talent.

1. Barbershop (2002)

In what should come as no surprise, the number one pick for the funniest Cedric The Entertainer film is 2002’s Barbershop. The comedian steals the show in this ensemble comedy, as evidenced by his highlighted placement in the trailer. Cedric shines as Eddie, the talkative barber with a penchant for sharing his unfiltered opinions, often tasked with punctuating a scene using a series of hilarious monologues and sharp one-liners. Despite what Katt Williams may have to say about the beloved comedian, Cedric elevates Barbershop to the status of a certified classic.

The Cast Of “Juice”: Where Are They Now?

January 9, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Most hip hop fans who grew up in the 1990s and early 2000s are undoubtedly familiar with the hit 1992 film Juice, starring Tupac Shakur, Omar Epps, Khalil Kain, and Jermaine Hopkins. The film tells a gritty tale of power, friendship, and the consequences of untreated mental health in a pervasive environment of crime and poverty. Now, over 30 years after the iconic film’s release, fans have wondered what has become of the actors who brought these fascinating characters to life.

The rapper starred in Juice as Roland Bishop, the film’s central antagonist. Juice served as Shakur’s feature film debut, opening doors in his career for a host of other movie and television roles before his untimely death at the age of 25. In the years following his breakout performance, the “Dear Mama” vocalist starred in a number of classic films, including Poetic Justice, Above The Rim, Gridlock’d, and Gang Related.

In addition to his thriving acting career, Tupac Shakur also continued releasing music after appearing in Juice in 1992. After releasing his debut album in 1991, the rapper launched four full-length LPs, including a collaborative album with the rap group Thug Life. Following his death, Tupac’s music would continue to be released posthumously for years, showcasing his prolific recording process and inimitable work ethic. The rapper has gone down in history as one of the most popular and impactful emcees of all time.

Omar Epps

Like Tupac Shakur, Juice served as Omar Epps’s breakout role in film. The Brooklyn-born actor stars in the movie as Quincy “Q” Powell, the central protagonist. In the decades since Juice first premiered, Epps has continued appearing in film and television roles, most notably starring in the hit Fox series House as Dr. Eric Foreman. Epps appeared in 175 episodes of the medical drama between 2004 and 2012 and often served as a straight-edged man against Hugh Laurie’s eccentric medical practices.

Beyond House, Omar Epps has appeared in such projects as Scream 2, In Too Deep, Against The Ropes, and Trick. Most recently, the actor showcased his talents in the hit Starz original series Power Book 3: Raising Kanan. In the series, Epps portrays NYPD detective Malcolm Howard. Despite many rumors circulating in Hollywood, Epps clarified during a 2018 interview on The Breakfast Club that he is not related to comedian Mike Epps.

Like his co-stars, Khalil Kain made his acting debut in Juice back in 1992. Now, over 30 years after the crime thriller’s release, Kain has amassed dozens of on-screen credits and even taking up directing. His biggest recent credits include projects such as Misguided Behavior, Coming To Africa, Faceblocked, and The Bricks. In 2022, Kain made his directing debut with the film The Millennial, which he also starred in. The film made its world premiere at the 2021 Hip Hop Film Festival and opened to generally positive reviews. With so much success in his on-screen career, this may mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Khalil Kain.

Jermaine Hopkins

Jermaine Hopkins, also known as “Huggy,” was the only member of the main cast who had appeared in another major motion picture before Juice. Having starred as Thomas Sams in Lean On Me three years earlier, Hopkins was among the most experienced of the core four. In the years following the film’s release, Huggy went on to appear in a host of other film and television projects, including a four-episode stint on The Royal Family, a leading role in the TV movie Strapped, and most recently, a prominent placement in 2023’s Sebastian. The actor also reunited with Tupac Shakur for an appearance in the 1996 film Bullet.

Unfortunately, Hopkins has also suffered some legal trouble in the decades since Juice was released. The actor was arrested in 2011 and 2017 on marijuana charges. The first arrest saw him taking 30 days in jail and three years probation after attempting to purchase 200 pounds of weed from an undercover police officer, while the 2017 arrest resulted in two years of probation. Luckily, these legal issues haven’t done much to hamper Hopkins’ career, as the actor has continued to appear in movies and television consistently.
