All tag results for 'playback'

Fifth judges, gather ‘round! We’ve got some deliberating to do!

Last week’s X Factor left us off with a cliffhanger, as we FINALLY find out tonight just which contestants make it through to the live shows starting on November 1st!

In tonight’s two-hour episode, the judges will narrow down 24 acts to only 16, leaving each judge with four acts in each category.

Check out the sneak peek (above) to see just how intense it gets when Demi has to choose between CeCe Frey and Jillian Jensen!

Oh no! Could CeCe’s confidence end up winning Demi over? Though, what about her connection with bullying victim, Jillian???

Guess we’ll have to wait until tonight to see who survives!

To hold you over until then, check out Britney choosing between two teens, L.A. getting caught up over Vino Alan and Tara Simon and Simon deciding between Playback and LYLAS… AFTER THE JUMP!!!

Wow, we never thought we’d see THAT acronym again! LOLz!

While last season’s Groups category on X Factor proved to be one of the weakest, it seems Simon Cowell might just change that this time around!

As the boot camp results were revealed last night, three groups made it through to judges’ homes: Sister C, Dope Crisis and Emblem3.

However, since each category needed six contestants, Simon went ahead and formed teeny boy band, Playback, young girl group, LYLAS, and rap group, Lyric 145.

Check out one of the groups, LYLAS (above), made up of five strong female vocalists, who originally auditioned as solo acts!!

While they may be no Little Mix, is Simon trying to make them into a younger version of the Pussycat Dolls or the girl version of One Direction? And, was that a mini Nicole Scherzinger we saw?!

Guess we'll have to see if the ladiez prove to be one of Simon's strongest!

As for the other groups? Country girl group, Sister C, seemed to be a copycat version of season one’s Lakoda Rayne and Cali bros, Emblem3 stumbled a bit.

We did, however, kind of like Lyric 145’s rendition of Party In The USA! Ha!

So…they think that a hand will sell this movie better than Christian? WTF?!?!?

Check out the newly released poster (above) for Magnet Releasing/Magnolia Pictures' upcoming horror flick Playback, which stars Christian Slater…yet he's nowhere to be seen!

Here's how the movie is being described:

"While digging into their town's infamous past, a group of high school students unwittingly unlock a dark secret, unleashing an evil spirit that takes possession of its victims."

Sounds fun enough…but we're bummed that they're not giving Christian more love!

We had a blast running into him at our Miami book signing for The Boy With Pink Hair back in September, and we think it's lame that he's not featured prominently on this poster! Ah well!

Despite the bogus artwork…will U check out Christian Slater's new horror movie when it hits theaters in March???
