TV PILOTS/DEVELOPMENT SCORECARD: Follow the action during upfront season

The British network tweeted out the announcement that the newest incarnation of the legendary time-traveler will make his debut in August, while BBC America released a tantalizing 15-second teaser that indicates U.S. fans won’t have to wait for the Time Lord’s return. The previous two seasons of “Doctor Who” have aired day-and-date in the U.S., U.K. and Canada, and this is likely to be the case for season eight, although an exact premiere date has yet to be announced.
Check out the teaser below.

BIG BROTHER UK LAUNCHING 5TH JUNE - EMMA WILLIS AND RYLAN CLARK LOOKING FOR RUTHLESS HOUSEMATES (VIDEO)

We’ve got a good feeling about this year’s Big Brother. Not only is the theme 'power trip' – but Emma Willis and Rylan Clark are searching for nasty and ruthless housemates.

In fact, they are sick of nice, eager to please contestants - they want housemates ready to plot and scheme their way to victory. We have to agree, the bad ones are always so much more entertaining.

As for that power trip theme… as we previously reported, both housemates and us viewers at home will have the chance to seize power. We also suspect that BB will be on a bit of a power trip this year, which can’t be good news for the housemates but should make for excellent TV.

Big Brother: Power Trip Live Launch, Thursday 5 June at 9pm on Channel 5

Led Zeppelin's 'Stairway to Heaven' Targeted for Plagiarism

Lawyers representing the group Spirit claim song's intro resembles their 1968 track "Taurus"

Led Zeppelin is being accused of plagiarism...Have a listen to the original Spirit track...the intro's pretty similar.

As Led Zeppelin promote the extravagant reissues of their first three albums for an early June release, a lawyer representing deceased Spirit guitarist Randy California is claiming the hard-rock legends stole the intro for their 1971 single "Stairway to Heaven" from Spirit's 1968 song "Taurus." Attorney Francis Alexander Molofiy wants to prevent the release of the Led Zeppelin IV reissue when the time comes, Bloomberg Businessweek reports. "The idea behind this is to make sure that Randy California is given a writing credit on 'Stairway to Heaven,'" Malofiy said. "It's been a long time coming."

The 10 best Spirit songs that don't sound like "Stairway to Heaven"

 

Led Zeppelin and Spirit, who had a hit with "I Got a Line on You," played four gigs together in 1968 and 1969 (shows at which Businessweek claims Spirit played "Taurus"). Led Zeppelin also reportedly played a medley of songs that included Spirit's "Fresh-Garbage" – a song that appeared on the same LP side as "Taurus" – on their first U.S. tour.

 

In an interview with Listener magazine published the year of his death, California said he felt "Stairway to Heaven" was a "rip-off." "The guys made millions of bucks on it and never said 'Thank you,' never said, 'Can we pay you some money for it?'" he said. "It's kind of a sore point with me. Maybe someday their conscience will make them do something about it."

Spirit and California's family have waited until now to challenge the song's authorship because they did not have the means to pay attorneys. At the end of California's life, he would play sitar at an Indian restaurant in exchange for food.

 

"Stairway to Heaven" and the 40 Greatest Led Zeppelin Songs of All Time

A rep for Led Zeppelin declined to comment for Businessweek's story, but Page discussed the band's history with crediting songwriters after the fact in a recent interview with The New York Times. When asked why the group waited to credit Willie Dixon for bits of lyrics and melody that made their way into "Whole Lotta Love," he acknowledged, "Within the lyrics of it, there's [Dixons's] "You Need Love," and there are similarities within the lyrics. Now I'm not pointing a finger at anybody, but I'm just saying that's what happened, and Willie Dixon got credit. Fair enough."

Reissues of Led Zeppelin, Led Zeppelin II and Led Zeppelin III are due in stores on June 3rd. Each is available in a deluxe edition that contains a full disc of never-before-released studio takes and live tracks.


 






 

ARE WILL SMITH AND JADA PINKETT SMITH UNDER INVESTIGATION

Are Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith under investigation by child protection services over that Willow Smith picture

According to RadarOnline, Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith are under investigation by the child protection services over a picture of their 13-year-old daughter Willow Smith lying on a bed with her friend, Moises Arias, 20.
The black and white photo, which appeared on social media two weeks ago and has now been taken down, shows former Hannah Montana star Moises slouched on a bed shirtless, while Willow lies clothed in front of him.
Now it’s been reported that the Los Angeles Department of Children And Family Services has launched a probe.
RadarOnline claims the investigation was launched last week and that Will, 45, and 42-year-old Jada have been 'extremely cooperative’.

A source told the website: “Social workers will also be talking separately with Willow, and they also want to talk to the young man in the picture with her as well.  
“This won’t just be one or two visits with the family, and it will likely be an open investigation for at least a month, out of an abundance of caution.”
Will and Jada have not made any comment about an investigation. But when asked about the photo, Jada lashed out as she arrived at Los Angeles Internation Airport on 7 May.
Speaking in a video on TMZ she said: “Here's the deal. There was nothing sexual about that picture of that situation. You guys are projecting your trash onto it … and your acting like covert paedophiles and that's not cool.”

On the same day Willow's brother Jaden Smith, 15, made a show of solidarity to his sister when he was spotted out and about with Moises.
