All tag results for 'contract negotiations'

WOW! Did anyone else know this was in the works?!

Here we were, assuming that the new season of America's Got Talent was ready to go, as Mel B. was announced as Sharon Osbourne's replacement on the judges panel, alongside Howard Stern and Howie Mandel!

Well, apparently, we we WRONG, as on the upcoming season of the reality competition, there will FOUR judges…as Heidi Klum has reportedly signed a last-minute contract with the network and will be

YES! YES! YES!

This is literally EVERYTHING we could have ever hoped for after the DISASTER that was X-Men: The Last Stand!

As you all know, we've been sh-tting our pants in excitement over what's on its way to being pretty much the best installment of the super-hero franchise EVER with X-Men: Days Of Future Past. The flick will serve as a sequel to BOTH First Class AND the aforementioned, Brett Ratner-directed clusterf-ck, as its time-jumping narrative allows for the inclusion of Michael Fassbender and Ian McKellan as past and present Magneto; James McAvoy and Patrick Stewart as past and present Professor X, and the much-anticipated returns of Hugh Jackman, Shawn Ashmore, Anna Paquin and Ellen Page as Wolverine, Iceman, Rogue and Kitty Pryde, respectively!

Then, with the announcement of Game Of Thrones' Peter Dinklage as the main antagonist, we didn't think we could GET anymore excited…until NOW!

Because apparently, there are still original X-Men in talks to return, as Halle Berry recently revealed that she was well-into contract negotiations, and about 90% certain she'd be BACK as Storm!

WHAT?! We thought Cee Lo Green LOVED Christmas!

At least, he sounded like he did with all the badass holiday songs he released this past December! What gives?!

Apparently, however, The Voice judge and his management team were behind on helluva conspiracy theory to snag thousands of dollars from a promotions company by agreeing to series of Christmas concerts that they never planned to actually execute…and are now facing a $14.2 million lawsuit!

WTF?! We know, this one is a little complicated!

So let's break it down for you:

According to Cierra Management Group, the singer's people approached them in November of 2011 with a tour proposal called the "12 Days of Christmas." Cee Lo would be expected to hold a concert on each of those days - however, the deal was that Cierra would front $100,000 for EACH.

Obviously, that was way too much, so Green's team re-assessed and then suggested SIX concerts instead, but that was still too expensive for them!

Finally, Cierra was offered TWO concerts for a total of $243,000…which they decided they could swing, and agreed!

Sweet deal, right?! WRONG!

We've kept our fingers crossed for the past month, and now, we know that it's paid off in the BEST way, folks!

Because on the third season of American Horror Story, season one regular Taissa Farmiga is BACK!

Although the young actress has been in discussions with series creator Ryan Murphy since before production of the second season - of which she was not a part - wrapped, whatever contract negotiations that needed to be finalized have been signed off on, and she's now officially on board to re-join Jessica Lange, Sarah Paulson, Lily Rabe and her former homicidal love-interest, Evan Peters, for another round of shrieks!

As the mastermind behind the FX anthology fright-fest explains:

Ann Curry's contract negotiation battle may be coming to a close! There's just one more thing NBC is demanding- and it's harsh!

A source at the network says the higher-ups are finally willing to set the Today correspondent free! And Matt Lauer actually helped? The source says:

HOLY SHIZ!

It's thisclose to HAPPENING…FOR REALZ, you guys!

As we're sure you're all aware, it's been a tough week with some pretty severe ups and downs for our beloved Britney Spears, who called off her engagement to Jason Trawick, turned back over her $90,000 engagement ring to him, sacked X Factor AND her agency…BUT is still hard at work on a VERY exciting new album and now has MORE than just tentative plans to perform in a mini-residency in Las Vegas!

That's right!

While we only just heard about the contract negotiations two days ago, sources close to pop sensation have now revealed that

As if you weren't already aware, Lea Michele and Chris Colfer's wins at last night's People's Choice Awards were pretty big indicators that the exciting new direction (see what we did just there? LOLz!) Glee has taken with their characters this season have gone over with viewers and critics alike VERY WELL!

So it's no surprise - BUT STILL VERY EXCITING - that during the Television Critics Association's winter press tour, Fox Entertainment chairman Kevin Reilly spilled some pretty exciting details about what will be coming for the smash series…because he's VERY CONFIDENT that Glee - and by default, the Oxygen reality competition The Glee Project - will be BACK for more than just another year, regardless of what that means for graduating characters!

As he explained, what was originally conceived as a New York-set spin-off for Kurt and Rachel has managed to be a "seamless" fit for the actual series, so in later years, as other members of New Directions grow up, it could actually become much more prominent part of the storyline:
