After an agonizing cancellation due to inclimate weather, Siouxsie Sioux was finally able to perform her first U.S. shows in 15 years Sunday night, May 21, as part of the Eighties-geared Cruel World festival.
Fans lucky enough to catch the show have started sharing videos from the concert, including a show-closing encore of the 1980 Siouxsie and the Banshees song, “Israel.” The last time Siouxsie had performed the song was 2013, at Yoko Ono’s Meltdown Festival in London.
There were also renditions of “Happy House” (famously sampled by the Weeknd), “Kiss Them for Me,...

It’s been at least decade since Siouxsie Sioux of Siouxsie and The Banshees fame played a proper live show, but that changes this year! Ahead of the enigmatic musician’s European tour this year, she had a warm-up show in Brussels at the Ancienne Belgique, performing a set that included many a Banshees classic.
Along with some of Siouxsie and The Banshees’ best-known songs like “Spellbound,” “Arabian Nights,” and “Cities in Dust,” Sioux also dug up her covers of The Beatles’ “Dear Prudence” and Iggy Pop’s “The Passenger.” She also played a few songs from her 2007 solo album Mantaray.
And although Sioux’s hair has gotten a bit tamer since the Banshees’ heyday — and she’s swapped out the winklepicker boots for sensible sneakers — you could say her stage presence is still pretty “spellbinding” (sorry), complete with plenty of high kicks and weirdo moves. Kids, here’s a real “Wednesday dance” for you.

Stanley Donen, director of acclaimed movie musicals like Singin’ In The Rain and On the Town, has died at the age of 94.
One of Donen’s sons confirmed the director’s death to Chicago Tribune film critic Michael Phillips. “Confirmed by one of his sons this morning: Director Stanley Donen has died at 94 … A huge, often neglected talent,” Phillips tweeted Saturday morning. Cause of death has not been revealed.

Cary Grant films on TCM: Gender-bending 'I Was a Male War Bride' (photo: Cary Grant not gay at all in 'I Was a Male War Bride') More Cary Grant films will be shown tonight, as Turner Classic Movies continues with its Star of the Month presentations. On TCM right now is the World War II action-drama Destination Tokyo (1943), in which Grant finds himself aboard a U.S. submarine, alongside John Garfield, Dane Clark, Robert Hutton, and Tom Tully, among others. The directorial debut of screenwriter Delmer Daves (The Petrified Forest, Love Affair) -- who, in the following decade, would direct a series of classy Westerns, e.g., 3:10 to Yuma, The Hanging Tree -- Destination Tokyo is pure flag-waving propaganda, plodding its way through the dangerous waters of Hollywood war-movie stereotypes and speechifying banalities. The film's key point of interest, in fact, is Grant himself -- not because he's any good,...

Thanks to "Sleepless in Seattle," everyone knows "An Affair to Remember" is the ultimate romantic tearjerker. Not only do Nora Ephron's female characters describe it as their favorite chick flick, but the ending atop the Empire State Building evokes the abortive reunion that Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr never get to enjoy. Many modern viewers also know that "Affair to Remember" (which opened in theaters 55 years ago, on July 11, 1957) was filmmaker Leo McCarey's remake of his own 1939 hit "Love Affair," with Charles Boyer and Irene Dunne as the lovers kept apart by fate and their own wounded pride. Still, there's a lot about "An Affair to Remember" that even its biggest fans may not know, including its uncanny echoes of Grant's own shipboard romance with his third wife, or how a not-yet-famous young visitor witnessed the veteran leading man's acting breakthrough, or Grant's off-camera therapeutic uses of hypnosis and LSD.

Britney Haynes finally got her chance to write a Head of Household blog on "Big Brother 12."
She talks about all the houseguests and says she is prepared to fight -- which probably would have been easier had she not nominated Matt in Brendon's place.

Model-turned-actress Suzy Parker - one of the most recognizable faces of the 1950s and a forerunner of the supermodel - has died at the age of 69. Parker - known in later life as Suzy Parker Dillman - died on Saturday night at her home in Montecito, California, according to her stepdaughter. Famous for her full, red hair and beautiful bone structure, Parker was the signature face for designer Coco Chanel. In 1957, Parker made her Hollywood debut in the musical Funny Face, alongside Fred Astaire and Audrey Hepburn. Parker's other film credits include Kiss Them For Me, opposite Cary Grant, and Ten North Frederick, starring Gary Cooper. She also appeared in television series like The Twilight Zone and Tarzan. Longtime friend Nancy Failing says, "She'd led the glamorous life and she was ready to draw in her horns."...
