'Parks and Recreation's Nick Offerman Sings about His Love of Whiskey in 'My Tales of Whisky' Video [WATCH]
As 'Parks and Recreation's resident badass, Ron Swanson, Nick Offerman brings a whole new meaning to manhood. His character hates the government, crafts masterpieces out of wood and is a big fan of whiskey. Although Offerman isn't a complete carbon copy of Ron (I'm guessing Swanson would have a problem with someone who chose acting as a career choice), he is actually an accomplished woodworker. He also loves whiskey. -

Now That Téa Leoni Is Confirmed to Be Dating Tim Daly, Will Her Ex David Duchovny Finally Confirm His Relationship with Gillian Anderson?
The only person whom David Duchovny has been linked to for longer than his ex-wife, Téa Leoni, is his former costar Gillian Anderson. Last summer, Duchovny and Leoni's divorce became final after officially separating for good back in 2011. They had spent a few years before that trying to make things work, but ultimately decided that being apart was better. Yesterday we learned that Leoni is now happily dating her "Madame Secretary" costar Tim Daly. This is the first time either she or her ex have actually been officially linked to someone else, and many are now wondering if Duchovny will come clean about his romance with Anderson.The twosome have had rumors swirling around them for years because of their chemistry while working together for the better part of a decade on "The X-Files." The show became a cult classic that lives on in syndication, and the most die-hard of fans have clamored for a real-life relationship between these two. As Anderson once said, they likely know each other better than their own spouses ever have, so it is kind of a no-brainer that they might gravitate together. -
David Guetta Performs 'Listen' Hit 'Dangerous' on 'Good Morning America' with an Orchestra [WATCH]
This morning on "Good Morning America," French superstar DJ David Guetta performed his hit single "Dangerous" featuring the vocals of American singer/songwriter Sam Martin from his chart-topping album "Listen." For the occasion he brought an orchestra, guitarist and bassists to play the various string elements that come into play throughout "Dangerous." Sam Martin sat in on the piano and to sing vocals live.Right now LIVE on @GMA, @davidguetta and @SamMartinMusic perform "Dangerous." Head to @Snapchat (GMA_ABC) to see! pic.twitter.com/Bpn3xqaAov — Good Morning America (@GMA) December 4, 2014Despite it being at 8:50 a.m., the crowd was into it and was able and willing to dance to David Guetta and his group of instrumentalists. "GMA" wisely took the party inside, creating an intimate club atmosphere, since it was apparently 25 degrees Fahrenheit outside, according to ABC's thermometer, via "Do Androids Dance." It was probably the smallest audience Guetta has played to in years, as he is used to massive festival crowds and large, packed clubs.Guetta ditched his traditional DJ setup, instead opting for launchpads to trigger certain sounds in the song that would not be played by Sam Martin or the orchestra. Sam Martin shines on the piano, playing the topline from the track and singing the vocals with impressive style. The orchestra seemed slightly out of place with the whole set-up, but it was a good first attempt at doing it live.
