    The rise of American electronic music producer, DJ Skrillex, real name Sonny Moore, has been well-documented ever since he broke out in 2010 with his album Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites that totally changed the landscape of electronic and in many ways, pop music.

  • Katie Couric is Reportedly Interested in Brian Williams' Job at NBC News

    Brian Williams is in a world of trouble over at NBC News and that means that a handful of veteran reporters are wondering if his missteps could provide an opportunity that doesn't come along very often. Williams is currently taking a leave of absence from NBC Nightly News for "misremembering" whether or not he was in a chopper that was hit by RPG fire in 2003. Once the network figures out what else Williams may have inaccurately remembered in his other tales of heroic actions, his fate will be determined. One familiar face just waiting for the opportunity to have a meeting with NBC is none other than Katie Couric.
  • David Gregory's Salary Demands Cost Him a Position at CNN, but He Will Co-Host an Election Day Special on 'Yahoo! News' Beside Katie Couric

    David Gregory can't seem to catch a break or land a great job. After spending years at NBC, the newsman was let go late last summer after being blamed for "Meet the Press's" dismal Sunday morning ratings — not that the network did not try to figure out why, after years, people still were not embracing Gregory as host of the paneled show. It was rumored he and his wife — at the network's request — even met with therapists in an attempt to figure out what character flaw made him seemingly so unlikable. Once the writing was on the wall, it was rumored Gregory would likely land at CNN, but now we are hearing that that deal fell through. Salary demands could not be met, and the anchor will co-host an Election Day special on "Yahoo! News" with Katie Couric.
