Tuesday Tales

Both Russell Simmons and Jay Z have come to the defense of Kanye West. Simmons' response was more father like, while Hov said that he agrees Beyonce should have won the MTV Award. He also went on to add that West said the right thing at the wrong time and expressed himself the wrong way. Rapper Game stated that he'd like GUnit to reunite. He went on to say that what caused the split was so 2005 and he's a grown man and has checked his ego at the door. So far, no comment from 50 Cent. The video for Michael Jackson's "One More Chance" was released yesterday and it is indeed Jackson on the track. The track was done in 2003 but never released until now. Fans of boy bands New Kids On The Block and The Backstreet Boys will be happy to know that both groups are now on tour together. It all began when the New Kids ended a set by singing The Backstreet Boys hit "I Want It That Way", then surprising fans by having The Backstreet Boys join them on stage. The two groups then discussed the possibility of touring together and made arrangements. The shows should be exciting for fans. As mentioned previously, it's semi-finals week on "Dancing With The Stars" and last night's show was filled with exciting performances from the contestants. Be sure to tune in to tonight's results show. It airs at 9pm on ABC. Be sure to catch tonight's episode of "NCIS: Los Angeles" as Linda Hunt's character will be found to be hiding a secret pass. It will be the first of a two part episode. The producers of "Dancing With The Stars" will debut a new series titled "Skating With The Stars" on November 22. Sean Young and Vince Neal will be among the contestants appearing. Rihanna has new music in stores this week. On dvd: "Avatar: The Extended Collector's Edition" and "The Last Airbender".
