• Madonna: Gay Rights More Advanced Than Women's Rights

    Madonna made some bold comments recently about the state of women's rights. The Queen of Pop said that progress for women has been much slower than that of African-Americans and the LGBT community during an interview with 'Out' magazine. The comments come on the heels of the release of her new album 'Rebel Heart.' "Gay rights are way more advanced than women's rights. People are a lot more open-minded to the gay community than they are to women, period," she said. "It's moved along for the gay community, for the African-American community, but women are still just trading on their ass. To me, the last great frontier is women."
  • Amy Pascal Stepping Down as Sony Co-Chair, Will Head In-House Venture

    Amy Pascal leaving Sony seemed pretty inevitable thanks to the hacking scandal that is still affecting the entertainment company on a daily basis. It was Pascal's slanderous emails being leaked, according to the "New York Times," that first clued everyone in to the fact that there had been a breach, and while her negative comments may have been typed in brief moments of frustration, they have done a real job on her reputation. It was confirmed today, Feb. 5, that Pascal would be stepping down as Sony co-chairman but remain with the company as the head of a new in-house venture.
  • New Casting Call for 'RHONJ' Season 7 Out: Who Will Be Fired?

  • Has Rosie Perez Been Fired from 'The View'?

    Rumor has it that Rosie Perez is already out at ABC's "The View" after only four months. The actress joined the roundtable discussion last fall and has not been the best fit. Aside from many on-camera flubs she has reportedly had a hard time handling all the vicious fighting between Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie O'Donnell. Perez was scheduled to take the month of January off to star in Broadway's "Fish in the Dark" and we are hearing that it is unlikely she will be returning to the chatfest. We told you yesterday that ABC is considering killing off "The View" altogether after this season and replacing it with an additional hour of "Good Morning America." A source told FOX411 that the revolving door of hosts is only a detriment at this point. "You can't keep hiring and firing, trying to save a sinking ship There is no leadership on the show. It's the news division that pays for 'The View,' so the debate now is whether the show is iconic enough to pour money into revamping, or do away with altogether. At this stage, the feeling is that it's pretty much done. They may test a remodeled version for one more season, but that would require work and top brass aren't sure that it is worth it," said the source.
