Josh Duhamel called in to talk about “When In Rome”, which opens today! I was warned to NOT ask anything about his personal life…..but, he was so cool, we ended up talking (a lot) about Fergie. *Warning* He kind of spoils the movie’s ending in the first clip below….BUT…if you didn’t figure out that in a movie like this, Josh Duhamel WILL get the girl….you probably don’t go out to very many movies.

Hopefully, we can get him in portland and in our studio one of these days. I definitely got the vibe that with more time (and perhaps an adult beverage or two), Josh would really do some talking.

You can see Josh on Ellen today….on The Grammy Awards Sunday….and in theaters in “When In rome”….he’s everywhere.

Have you seen this A&E reality show, “The Jackson’s: A Family Dynasty”. The season finale is Sunday and I have to say thsi show is nothing like I imagined it would be. They are so……normal. In fact, if you have brothers, you may even recognize your family at times in this show.

Cameras followed Michael Jackson’s brothers as they prepared for a Jackson 5 reunion….and then, Michael Jackson died, which changed the whole direction of the show. Jermaine & Marlon called in to talk about the show & their memories of their brother, Michael. They also updated us on how Michael’s kids are doing…..and confirmed that there is a LOT of unreleased Michael Jackson music, music we may be able to hear someday.

Check out the clips below:

Pat, Scott, & Jimmy from Train stopped by last week for a chat before they did a mini-concert for Buzz winners (You can see video in the Buzz-A-Vision section).

Soooo… I have this friend in South Carolina and he is in TROUBLE with Twilight fans. His name is Matt and he has a band called Eleventyseven. He is not a Twilight fan (but really, how many guys are?) I was talking to him earlier today and we were talking about Halloween and he told me about this song they just did about a geek who crashes a Halloween party dressed as Edward Cullen. It’s good cheesetacular fun (kinda like the Twilight movie). Check it out and let me know what you think.

Click the “MP3″ below to hear Matt & I talk about the Twilight movie and the song that has earned Matt’s band so much hate mail, “Flashlight”

If you know me at all, you know that when I get one of those rare “I have the house & tv all to myself” days, one of the first things I do is watch a Tyler Perry movie. Yes, I know I am probably not his target audience, but I love the family & friend drama that this man puts on the screen. His movies always make me cry….and then feel good at the end. I can’t explain it, but it’s great stress relief for me.

Sooo….when I got the opportunity to talk to Tyler Perry this morning, you’d better believe I got my butt out of bed at 5:30 to take his call. His new movie, “I Can Do Bad All By Myself” opens today, so we talked about that, of course. He also talked about….what performing in drag as Madea taught him about how tough it is to be a woman….what it was like to be working with Janet Jackson on the day she learned her brother died…..and why he gave 65 preschool kids from Philly an all expenses paid trip to Disneyworld.

Enjoy!
