The DTV switchover seems to have destroyed television viewership for the summer!
The premiere of NBC's America's Got Talent was #1 in the ratings on Tuesday night, but the staggering 11.3 million viewers is a 14% drop from last season's premiere.
Yikes!
Producers were hoping to bank on SuBo's success with Britain's Got Talent as a draw for US viewers, but no such luck. Critics panned the premiere for not having a "Susan Boyle moment."
Even swapping Jerry Springer out for Nick Cannon as host didn't help boost the figures!
I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here's viewership also dramatically dropped on Tuesday night with 4.3 million viewers; the lowest rated episode of the entire season.
Maybe it's time for NBC execs to stop recycling old ideas!
Mims was just spotted at the Cannes Film Festival in France. Carey is there to support her upcoming flick, Precious, which surprisingly isn't so shiteous.
Moo fired her stylist and picked out this tent herself. At least her hair and makeup look good!
Check out (above) Mariah Carey's new music video for Love Story, co-starring and put together by her husband of one year - they made it! - Nick Cannon.
So Nick Cannon got a hold of Eminem's new album, which leaked on the Internets (it sucks), and he offered his scattered review of the tracks on his blog.
Everything was nice and "mediocre" until Eminem took a dig at his wife, Mariah Carey, and Nick took to his blog to prove why children need to be supervised on the internet.
First, Nick finds himself conversing with some dudes on his shoulders, with one saying, "No Nicholas, there is no need to play into his negativity. He is just a troubled soul yearning for the lost spotlight. You must be Christ like and turn the other cheek" and the other dude rousing him to battle, saying, "What Nigga?! Is you scared?! You can’t let no man ever disrespect your wife! Especially not some Peroxide drenched homophobic has-been! This is like some Paquiao vs. Hatton shit! He is underestimating you with his ass out and you can drop him in the first round!"
He then debates whether or not he should challenge Eminem to a rap off, but decides against it. Smart move, Nick.
And then, through some some sort of whack logic, Nick arrives at the conclusion that Eminem's greatest transgression is insulting a black woman, saying, "this so-called man has just disrespected and slanderized one of the world’s most significantly influential artists, one of the most notable BLACK females of our time, the incredibly cherished, globally loved and world-embraced woman of color, Mariah Carey!"
He then invites Eminem to "holler at me on some grown man shit. Man to man, let’s meet up and deal with this like adults. This is my invitation to you, whenever and wherever you like sir. So when you come out of your introverted hiding place and ask your bodyguards if you can go out and play by yourself, I’m here Pimp! because "I guess it’s going to take a corny, wack rapping, boy toy from Nickelodeon to set you straight."
But the most amusing aspect of Nick's rant is when he refers to Eminem as "Miss Marshall," suggesting that being a woman is an insult.
We wonder how Eminem is going to respond!
You can listen to the panty knot inducing song below.
Mariah and Nick Cannon managed to make it to their one year wedding anniversary???
Boy, how the time flies!
Mimoo's got a death grip on those balls, doesn't she?!
When most couples would settle for a nice dinner, Moo and Nick Carey-Cannon held a modestly-sized bash for the first anniversary, inviting fifty of their 'closest' family and friends to the Palms Casino in Vegas on Thursday night to celebrate the occasion.
After dinner, Mr. Carey surprised his bride with a Powerpoint slideshow of the couples' most memorable moments from the past year!
What do you wanna bet it was the video for My Love on a loop???
1000 butterflies balloons were released through the moon roof before the crowd toasted to the happy couple and chowed down on a 5-tiered Duncan Hines yellow cake!!
