...refined, somewhat subdued manner belies his powerful singing on the album, but that's only one of the surprising things about him. "My background musically?" he repeats, and laughs, "I played the French horn in high school for six years." Beyond this musical experience, and a few years in show choir, Bennett has had no other formal musical training; he taught himself how to play the guitar six years...

...better described as a winking, ironic take on dancing: efforts to banish thoughts of that Volkswagen commercial where the guys dance to Styx's "Mr Roboto"(or my actual efforts in to do the same dance in the '80s) failed. In any case, it was the start of a show, all right. Lu Cont and Reynolds had chemistry and were having a laugh camping it up, shrugging their shoulders to the beat.

"O-Town" tracks the rise to fame of five 18-24 year old wannabe stars who form a boy band. Episode one begins with the boys' auditioning and by the end of the season, ABC is betting that we'll have...

Turns out there are still some things you just can't get away with. Conservative cyberjournalist Matt Drudge found that out Thursday when Fox canceled his weekly political gossip show. The problems began when the channel's executives wouldn't allow him to show a photo of a fetus receiving surgery. Drudge says the graphic photo was meant to buttress his pro-life stance, but the channel heads felt it was being used out of context. When Drudge missed his show in protest, he was handed his walking papers...
