Despite, or perhaps because of the violence, rap music is more popular than ever. Chamillionaire is ridin’ the airwaves with his Houston swagger; Kanye West and Pharrell Williams, two producers-turned-rappers, have made hip hop accessible to a wider audience through their collaborations with rock and pop artists; and Jay-Z continues to rep Brooklyn on the mike, even though he supposedly retired three years...
...eight years she co-starred on NBC's hit comedy Will & Grace, Emmy-winning actress Megan Mullally perfected the swagger, voice and over-the-top attitude - part Mae West, part Minnie Mouse - of rich diva Karen Walker. Now Mullally - who won her second Emmy on Sunday for Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series - is venturing into daytime television as host of The Megan Mullally Show, a syndicated talk/variety series that debuts Sept. 18.

A no-nonsense fighter pilot who was the favorite of former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon - to the extent that some insiders say Sharon was grooming Halutz, not Olmert, to replace him some day as prime minister - Halutz, 58, at first impressed Israelis with his Top Gun swagger and aviator glasses. Once asked how it felt to drop a bomb on people, he replied: " I feel a light bump to the plane as a result of the bomb's release. A second later and it's gone, and that's all. That is what I feel...
