• 75 Years of Al Pacino: The 'Scarface' Actor and Music, from Madonna to Hip-Hop Culture

    A big celebrity birthday today as Al Pacino turns 75 on April 26. Obviously the actor is known for many iconic roles in his Hollywood career—from Michael Corleone in The Godfather franchise, to iconic drug hustler Tony Montana in Scarface, to Satan in The Devil's Advocate—and sometimes he's even played a good guy. One thing that Pacino is less renowned for is his role in music—he's not the kind of guy that starts a band when he's not starring in a blockbuster. Nonetheless, Music Times managed to round up five examples of the actor coming in contact with our subject of choice.

    The good people behind "South Park" look to have saved their most ruthless episode for last. No one is safe during tomorrow's Dec. 10 season finale. The new trailer for "The Washington Redskins' Go F--k Yourself Holiday Special" features cartoon appearances by Iggy Azalea, U2, Miley Cyrus and Taylor Swift. The show will also take aim at Al Pacino, Bill Cosby and the recent hologram craze with Kurt Cobain, Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley. Like I said, no one is safe. As "Consequence of Sound" notes, this season has been full of special appearances by artists and celebrities who have dominated the news in 2014. Most notably, Randy Marsh revealed that he is actually New Zealand singer Lorde. Even deceased musicians will be dug up, appearing in the show as holograms (social media: #HappyHolograms). The show is bound to be full of laughs with Cartman commentating and Jackson's hologram performing as Peter Pan. Check out the trailer below. "South Park" is currently in its 18th season and, by all accounts, the creative partnership of Trey Parker and Matt Stone has yet to lose steam.
