What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday
All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue.
The Wrestler
I said it in my list of must haves for April and I'll say it again: In addition to being a touching film with an astounding performance by Mickey Rourke, The Wrestler is one of those rare movies that a diverse group of adults can agree to see together.
Notorious: A Star Is Born Playing a Tragic Figure
Notorious is a biopic based on the life and times of music legend Christopher Wallace, a.k.a Notorious B.I.G., who was tragically killed in his early 20s in a drive-by shooting. It comes extremely close to telling an interesting story about the measure of a man and the price of fame — close, but no cigar.
That said, there is a silver lining and that's the discovery of an artist named Jamal Woolard (also known as Gravy) who plays the title role.
What to Download: New Music Today
Tuesdays are big in entertainmentville: Not only do all the new DVD releases hit Netflix, but new music also pours into stores. So I take a spin through each week's music releases and pick out some albums and tracks worthy of a download. Here are today's selections:
Live and well: You know who I haven't been able to catch live in a while?
Diddy and Friends Honor Biggie at Notorious Movie Premiere
Friends and family of Notorious B.I.G. were among those who came out to to celebrate and remember the late rapper at the premiere of his new biopic Notorious last night in NYC. Diddy, who worked as an executive producer for the project honoring his best friend, looked sharp in his gray suit before changing into a more casual outfit for the after party.
First Look: Notorious
There's a teaser trailer for the Notorious B.I.G. biopic making the rounds lately, and I kinda like it. The music is great, there's a grandly dramatic, dangerous tone to the whole thing, appropriately.

Buzz-Worthy Video: Joseph Gordon-Levitt Mellows Out
It's no secret that I'm a big fan of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, so you know I was pysched to watch him play host on SNL this weekend. And boy, did the guy come prepared. He kicked things off with a ridiculously impressive singing-and-dancing performance of "Make 'Em Laugh" from Singin' in the Rain, but my favorite skit of the night was "The Mellow Show."
Celebrity Hair: Can You Guess Who Said What?
From long to short to platinum to black, celebrities are notorious for changing their hairstyles — and talking about their appearances in general. Over the past week or so, it seems that stars have had lots to say about their locks. Can you guess which celebrity recently said what quote when it comes to their own strands?
Have You Ever Been Caught in a Love Triangle?
Remember Lisa Nowak, the astronaut accused of stalking her lover's new lover? She's avoiding prison after pleading guilty to lesser charges, having already served a couple days in the klink after she was arrested for her notorious crime.
Let me refresh your memory: in 2007, the temporarily love-crazed astronaut drove all the way from Houston to Orlando in a NASA diaper (the better to avoid bathroom breaks), sprayed her astronaut lover's new girlfriend Colleen Shipman with pepper spray in the parking lot of the Orlando International Airport, and was subsequently arrested and charged with attempted kidnapping with intent to do bodily harm and burglary of a vehicle using a weapon.
Coming Soon: Ralph Lauren Notorious
Busy guy, that Ralph Lauren. Next week, he's launching a new fragrance at Bloomingdale's before rolling it out everywhere else in September. Notorious is an eau de parfum created by perfumier Olivier Gillotin that contains notes of sweet vanilla, black currant, bergamot, white peony, carnation, pink peppercorn, aged patchouli, iris, musk, orris and just wait.
The Notorious D.A.D.
Watch out, Weird Al: Your "White and Nerdy" has nothing on this Notorious D.A.D. He's white, dorky, and big pimpin' the family life in suburbia. "For all the fellas that went from checking out the babes to changing babies," he's here to represent.
