Everyone’s heard of how giants like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates have dropped out of college, and in a way, it makes sense. As much as we want to believe this gives us an excuse to also drop out, those guys were literally too smart for college. But it gets even weirder when you realize [...]

We don’t necessarily go to the movies to cry, but it tends to happen. Well, unless you’re a manly man, in which case you likely only cry at a movie when a football star dies, or Jason Statham wrecks a beautiful car. But the fact is that there are a lot of depressing movies in [...]

Every actor is bound to make a stinker or two over the course of his or her career. Heck, if you’re looking at someone like Nic Cage or John Travolta, he’s bound to make a dozen or more, and let’s not even get started on someone like Emilio Estevez or his esteemed uncle, Joe. But, [...]

It seems when celebrities aren’t doing their thing in the limelight, they’re busy doing something else that will lead to them returning to said limelight as swiftly as possible.

Hosting Saturday Night Live is a pretty thankless job. Hosts, who often having little or no comedy training, are expected to come in on a Monday and be hilarious by Saturday.

We know the Shirley Temples, the Tatum O’Neals, the Corey Feldmans, the Dakota Fannings and the Abigail Breslins. We remember Linda Blair’s inspired (or possessed) performance in The Exorcist. Other child stars shone just as bright… just not as [...]
