With the Fugees, whose 1996 record The Score sold more than 5 million copies, on indefinite hiatus, Wyclef has ventured out on his own. His 1997 solo debut, The Carnival, sold almost 2 million copies. Now his new CD, The Ecleftic--2 Sides II a Book (Columbia), is garnering some of the best reviews of any rap release this year. Rolling Stone called it "the most pleasingly direct yet musically adventurous hip-hop long-player you're likely to hear all year." The hip-hop magazine Source gave it 4 1/2 microphones out of 5--half a mike more than...
Kristin's relative obscurity will end Thursday night, when she will make her own political debut.

The spotlight was blinding, Woods says. "It was a big change in my life. I turned pro, and suddenly, overnight, people knew who I was. I felt uncomfortable with it. There I was enjoying dinner with family and friends, and to have people...
Until comedian Dennis Miller's debut as an announcer on ABC's Monday Night Football last week, I had not watched an NFL game since Black Sunday, January 1979. By which I mean, Super Bowl XIII. I was then a Dallas Cowboys diehard. When the Pittsburgh Steelers beat America's Team 35-31, I cried like a girl, because that's what I was, a nine-year-old in a Cowboys T shirt.
