All tag results for 'vice president'

And since three is better than one, they'll all be taking the stage at the Democratic National Convention TOGETHER!

In what may be the hottest Hollywood threesome to ever appear at a political rally, Scarlett Johansson, Natalie Portman and Kerry Washington are scheduled to speak at the event on Thursday.

They'll follow a performance from the Foo Fighters on the final night of the convention, which is definitely the biggest because both Joe Biden AND Barack Obama will be accepting the Democratic Party's nomination to once again run for office.

The three talented actresses are a pretty

The Republican presidential campaign is facing some harsh rejection from all of the musicians they listen to.

Silversun Pickups recently sent Mitt Romney a cease and desist letter because he's been using the song Panic Switch at appearances without their permission. Now, the guitarist from Paul Ryan's favorite band is saying that the Vice Presidential candidate is one of his least favorite people!

In an op-ed for Rolling Stone, Tom Morrello of Rage Against The Machine has labeled Ryan as "the embodiment of the machine that our music has been raging against for two decades."

The guitarist acknowledges that Ryan has stated he prefers Rage's sound to their songs' lyrics, but doesn't let him off the hook as he continues:

This week, Sarah Palin heard what no child of a political party ever wants to hear — she was "a mistake"!

During his first interview since receiving a heart transplant, former Vice President Dick Cheney expressed unmistakable regret for John McCain's decision to pick Palin as his running mate in 2008.

He explained:

The big election is only months away, but Mitt Romney is STILL undecided on the vice presidential candidate he will pick to be his running mate!

In an interview with Good Morning America that will air on Thursday, Anne Romney said:

"We are certainly talking a lot. This last week, this last weekend, there was a lot of discussion. There was a lot of talk. We're not quite there yet. And we're going to be there soon."

What's the hold up?

The Republican National Convention will he held on August 27 and running mates are usually announced before then. With Mitt leaving the country to tour Europe next week, people think he'll make the big announcement beforehand.

Mrs. Romney wants her hubby to pick someone who shares her values, which could be Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty or Ohio Sen. Rob Portman or anybody else willing to pander to the Republican base.

Anybody out there have any advice for Mitt as he makes the biggest decision of his presidential campaign?

This is EXACTLY what we like to hear from the Vice President of the United States of America!

Joe Biden appeared today during an interview on Meet The Press, during which he officially became the highest-ranking official in the Obama administration to publicly express his support of marriage equality in the United States!

Ch-ch-check out a clip (above)!

Although he refrained from outright saying he endorsed it, he did say:

These are really scary times we live in. Thankfully, it sounds like everything is alright now.

Last night, the brother of Vice President Joe Biden was kept overnight at a hospital near his Ocean Ridge, FL home after opening a package with an unknown powdery substance

Francis Biden alerted authorities immediately when he opened a post and found some white powder inside that made contact with his skin. As South Florida has a history with anthrax, extra precautions were implemented. Neighbors were evacuated, the street was closed off and Francis was rushed to the hospital.

However, he's just released a statement saying that he is "fine" as is his girlfriend Mindy, who brought the envelope in from the mailbox, but never came in contact with the powder.

Phew! We're just glad to hear everyone is safe and unharmed. That's what is most important.

Holy crap - this man is unstoppable, isn't he?!

Tyler Perry has reportedly signed a NEW deal with TBS for a THIRD TV show, a dramedy called For Better or Worse, which will reportedly be based on his Why Did I Get Married? franchise!

The series, which will the flick's original castmembers Michael Jai White and Tasha Smith, has been greenlit for 10 episodes, and if the ratings are impressive enough, 90 more will be ordered!

According to TBS, TNT, and TCM's Executive Vice President and Head of Programming Michael Wright:

“Tyler Perry’s series have been tremendously successful for TBS, helping establish the network as a prime destination for African-American viewers. Given such a remarkable track record, we’re excited for the opportunity to expand our relationship with Tyler Perry and Debmar-Mercury with the new series For Better or Worse.”

Perry continues:

“Even though it will be sad to say goodbye to House of Payne, I’m really looking forward to exploring new territory with For Better or Worse. Working on House of Payne taught me a lot about what it takes to make a successful television series and I’m looking forward to applying that experience to For Better or Worse.”

Here's hoping!

People really LOVE his shows, so we imagine if he just keeps up the good work, he'll have NO problem at all securing those additional 90 episodes!

Best of luck!
