• Bill Cosby Is Doing Damage Control, Refuses to Discuss Revived Rape Allegations

    Bill Cosby has spent a decade defending himself against allegations made by various women. While the comedian has prided himself on having a fairly wholesome image with generations remembering him primarily as Dr. Huxtable, when not peddling Pudding Pops, a more sinister side has been alleged. In the last week or so, rumors again have begun swirling about Cosby potentially drugging and raping women with one of his accusers, Barbara Bowman, speaking out again.While Cosby has been outspoken in the past, vehemently denying that he has ever put an inappropriate hand on any woman, this time around he has chosen to let his legal team do all the damage control.According to a report by TMZ, his attorney came out swinging, saying, "Over the last several weeks, decade-old, discredited allegations against Mr. Cosby have resurfaced. The fact that they are being repeated does not make them true. Mr. Cosby does not intend to dignify these allegations with any comment. He would like to thank all his fans for the outpouring of support and assure them that, at age 77, he is doing his best work."

  • Timbaland Reacts to Lifetime's Aaliyah Biopic: Producer Calls the Film 'Bulls--t' Via Social Media [WATCH]

    Lifetime's Aaliyah biopic premiered last night, Nov. 15, and so far no one has been impressed by it.

He even posted a video, "Billboard" points out, where he talks about his problems with the film."I think everyone [sic] musician portrayed in this Aaliyah movie should sue the hell out Lifetime movie for failure of accurate casting," he said in the video."A lot of people keep asking me if I'm watching that bullshit. Evidently not," Timbaland added in another post. "No way. Not Timbo. People, thanks for the comments tonight on that bullshit Aaliyah movie.

  • Dr. Martin Salia is 'Extremely Critical' While Being Treated in Nebraska for Ebola Virus

    The United States was Ebola-free for a few short days before the news broke that Dr. Martin Salia was being flown to Nebraska from Sierra Leone. As it turns out, Salia is a citizen of Sierra Leone but lives in Maryland, was working as a general surgeon at Kissy United Methodist Hospital in the country's capital. Kissy is not an Ebola treatment unit but Salia has also apparently worked in at least three other facilities that are. It's still unclear when or how Salia came into contact with the deadly virus, but five other doctors in Sierra Leone have not only contracted the disease, but also were killed by it.

  • Janay Palmer Does Her Best to Downplay Being Knocked Out by Ray Rice in New Interview with Matt Lauer

    Janay Palmer has spent the last few months basically hiding out, not allowing the general public to have much more than a slight glimpse into her personal life, and who can blame her? After that now-infamous elevator surveillance video went public, showing her now-husband Ray Rice knocking her out with one punch, it was a real turning point in her life. Palmer chose quite quickly to stand by her husband and support him, even going so far as to lambaste the NFL for punishing Rice for his violent actions. It was pretty clear Palmer was taking the "stand by your man" approach to the whole scandal and, in doing so, she kept her silence for the most part. At least until NBC's "Today" managed to grab the first official interview with her.Make no mistake, it is actually Rice that NBC wants to hear from, and while he never signed on the dotted line with the network, he was there when Matt Lauer sat down with Palmer in the couple's Maryland home late last week. How much he actually said is still unknown, but Lauer appeared happy with the outcome of the chat.

  • Slipknot's Corey Taylor Talks New Masks, Still Won't Confirm Bassist and Drummer Identities [LISTEN]

    Slipknot's masks have become synonymous with the band's blend of brutal heavy metal, and traditionally each member adopts a new face for a new album. Frontman Corey Taylor talked about the masks for the group's latest effort ".5: The Gray Chapter" with DJ Metallic on Metal Mania Radio recently. He also talked about the band's new bassist and drummer, whose identities have yet to be confirmed by the group."With every album, some of us have evolved our masks more dramatically than others, but there's always a difference, they've always changed a little bit, and this album is no exception," he said, Blabbermouth noted. "I mean, I think mine and Clown's and Sid's have changed the most, because it's evolution."
