But now Vin Diesel has announced the next release date of Fast and Furious 7. The movie was set to release in summer 2014. But its release date is shifted to April 2015 now due to Paul Walker's death. Vin Diesel states on his Facebook page that Fast and Furious 7 will now hit theaters on April 10th 2015.
46 years old actor Vin Diesel also shared a picture of Walker and himself that was from Walker's last scene of the movie with Diesel. Vin Diesel posted the image with caption: "The last scene we filmed together" before Walker's death.
Paul Walker was returning from a charity event on November 30th when his Porsche crashed leaving him dead. Someone else was driving the car. Paul was one of the main characters of the Fast & Furious series. All except one of the movies had the charmingly bold actor as a central character in them.
Besides being an extremely tragic event that has affected his friends and family, the man was virtually indispensable for the film. And couple that to the fact that the movie is about car racing and you can see how his death will negatively affect the movie’s prospects.
Vin Diesel also states, "There was a unique sense of completion, of pride we shared… in the film we were now completing… the magic captured… and, in just how far we've come." Source and More Details
One Target employee spoke with news.co.au about their surprise over their A-List customers. "They made sure no one was around to blow their cover," the employee said. "The store manager waited until everyone had gone home and opened it up secretly for them at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday. She said they shopped for around an hour and a half to buy presents for their children and friends."
While Brad's been shooting "Fury" in the U.K., Angelina, 38, has been filming "Unbroken" in Australia. So it's quite the treat that the whole family was able to celebrate Brad's 50th birthday (Dec. 18) together in Oz. Maddox (12), Pax (11), Zahara (8), Shiloh (7), and twins Knox and Vivienne (5), were all seen gallivanting on a beach and boating on the Coomera River in Queensland with their parents on Monday.

"Like her wedding, even her reception will be a private affair for her close friends and relatives. It will take place today evening in Dubai," a source close to the actress said Thursday.
Veena, who became a known name in India post her stint on the fourth season of reality show "Bigg Boss", entered wedlock Wednesday. She even took to Twitter to share a photograph showing her and her husband's wedding band.
Veena married Asad Bashir, who runs businesses in Dubai and the US, in the Emirates Court here on Christmas day. They have been family friends.
According to the source, the newly-wed couple is also likely soon to go to perform Umrah, a pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia. Source and More Details
The 21-year-old singer took to the Staples Center stage in Los Angeles Friday night to perform in KIIS FM's annual holiday show. Things did not go as planned when her audio and microphone malfunctioned, and Gomez was heard cursing, according to E! News.
"She for sure said 'what the f--k,' ... You could hear it crystal clear," a concertgoer told E! News. The source added that it "looked like" Gomez was lip-synching and "she was messing around with her ear piece from the first song so you knew something wasn't right."
The former Disney star attempted to ease the situation by chatting with the audience in between songs.
"Sorry, the sound isn't working!" Gomez told the crowd, which was mostly filled with children, according to Us Weekly. "Are you guys having a good night? I promise, a lot cooler people are gonna come out tonight. Is it okay if I perform two more songs and you guys can get to it? ... I have to say that before you guys go on to the people that you care about, I really appreciate you supporting everything that I do. So this next song is the first song I had hit No. 1, and it's called 'Come & Get It.'"
She reportedly promised to sing two more songs, but instead dropped her mic and walked off stage, Celebuzz reported.
Singer Ariana Grande also had technical difficulties when she performed "Right There" later in the night. She apologized to the crowd, according to Rolling Stone saying, "I’m sorry the mix was off the entire time. At least you know I’m not tracked." This was apparently a dig at Gomez.

The cat certainly didn't have Miley Cyrus' tongue when she performed 'Wrecking Ball' at the American Music Awards.
You might call it a cat-astrophic performance.
At the close of the American Music Awards Sunday night, Miley Cyrus performed her big ballad “Wrecking Ball” while a gigantic projection of a blinking pussycat mimicked every line out of her mouth on a screen behind.
At the end of the song, the feline stuck its tongue out, Miley-style. The scene looked like something the singer might have dreamed up after taking a deep toke on that joint she lit up on MTV’s EMA show this month.
Lady Gaga and R Kelly's performance of 'Do What U Want' pays homage to Marilyn Monroe and JFK.
The stunt had an even greater WTF effect because of the normally conservative tone of the AMAs. Dick Clark created them 40 years ago as a family-oriented, fan-driven show that, until Sunday, studiously resisted even a whiff of controversy.
Taylor Swift was the big winner at the awards, taking home Artist of the Year, Favorite Pop/Rock Female Artist, Favorite Country Female Artist and Favorite Country Album (for Red).
Lady Gaga staged her song with R. Kelly, “Do What U Want,” as a cheeky homage to Marilyn Monroe’s famous performance of “Happy Birthday” for John F. Kennedy. Here, Gaga played a Marilyn figure, bumping and grinding for Kelly as an improbable Prez. The timing of the performance, two days after the 50th anniversary of JFK’s slaying, was in questionable taste.

CMA Awards host Brad Paisley jokingly told his co-host Carrie Underwood that his back hurt and he needed to see a doctor. Underwood asked the singer if he had signed up for ObamaCare.
“ObamaCare, what’s that?” Paisley asked Underwood.
“Oh, it’s great!” Underwood quipped. “I started signing up last Thursday and I’m almost done!” The “Blown Away” singer proceeded to help her co-host sign up for ObamaCare and “join the six other people” who have reportedly signed up successfully for the healthcare service.
The routine had the Nashville audience clapping their hands to the tune of newly crowned entertainer of the year George Strait’s “Amarillo by Morning,” but with the words changed to “ObamaCare by morning/ Why’s this taking so long?/ I’m going to end up with hemorrhoids/If I sit here ’til dawn.”
The super star hosts also tried to settle the feud between Luke Bryan and Zac Brown who called Bryan’s new single “That’s My Kind of Night” the “worst song I’ve ever heard.” The two hugged it out while Carrie told them they had nothing to fight about. “You both made great records and you're both millionaires,” she sang to the tune of “Why Can’t We Be Friends.”
The CMA Award hosts did not stop there. Paisley thanked Swift not acting like her fellow pop star Miley Cyrus. He praised her for “not once humping a teddy bear or gyrating with beetle juice.” Underwood joked, “If someone in music today was going to be caught naked licking a hammer I think we'd all thought it'd be Blake Shelton.” The camera zoomed in on Shelton who nodded his head in agreement.
Next up was a surprise appearance by Willie and Jase Robertson of Duck Dynasty who were joined by their wives Missy and Korie to perform a redneckified version of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines.”
While the Robertson clan twerked on stage, Underwood and Paisley switched up the words of Thicke’s song. “I'm going to grow a beard and go out hunting… 'Duck Dynasty' guys dance to Robin Thicke/We tried to get nasty talking 'Duck Dynasty.'”
The Robertson’s weren’t just onstage to show off their lack of dancing skills; they also gave out the first award of the night to duo Florida Georgia Line for single of the year for their hit song “Cruise.”
The country twosome shot to stardom this year after touring with both Luke Bryan and Taylor Swift on their respective tours. The pair also won vocal duo of the year and opened the show with Luke Bryan singing a medley of Bryan’s “That’s My Kind of Night” and their own “Cruise.” The two wins solidified the hip-hop country sound making its way into mainstream country music.
Perhaps the single of the year win will finally put “Cruise” to rest. The duo released the song in August of 2012.
Jason Aldean performed next followed by Kacey Musgraves and Lady Antebellum. Both Aldean and Lady Antebellum surprisingly went home with no awards for the second year in a row.
Musgraves didn’t walk away empty handed as she won the title of new artist of the year. However, the “Follow Your Arrow” singer displayed a face of disappointment as Miranda Lambert beat her out to win female vocalist of the year for the fourth time in a row.
Lambert’s hubby and fellow country singer Blake Shelton scored album of the year and male vocalist of the year. Source and More Detail

Jeff Robinov and his team took it out of turnaround at Universal, huh? This original thriller about astronauts earned an impressive ’A-’ CinemaScore from audiences so the studio is predicting it’ll have long legs. Pic did $17M Friday including $1.4M for Thursday 10 PM late shows and Friday midnights in what is a traditionally slow time at the domestic box office which has been lagging. (“Would create a new window for a tentpole release,” Warner Bros Distribution czar Dan Fellman said this morning – and proved correct.) With runs in 3,575 locations, it’s important to note that a whopping 3,150 of those are 3D as opposed to only 425 plays in 2D as well as 323 IMAX. It would be too simplistic to say that the enthusiastic reviews for Gravity were solely responsible for the 1.4% uptick in IMAX shares Friday morning — ending this week’s startling 10% drop. But the film took in $420,000 from 323 IMAX theaters in late shows so poised to provide a “noticeable jolt” to investor expectations, according to Wall Street analysts. Lots of debate over the budget of this pic ranging from $80M to $120M. Full analysis coming.
Twentieth Century Fox/New Regency’s Ben Affleck and Justin Timberlake starring thriller Runner Runner grossed just $2.8M Friday including $200K for late shows before opening in 3,024 theaters. Studio didn’t expect more than a meager $10M-$12M for the weekend but now that estimate has flatlined to $7.8M. Brad Furman directed this flop about the less-than-riveting realm of offshore online gaming that earned a dismal ‘C’ CinemaScore from audiences. New Regency financed and produced the drama for what it claims is under $30M, knowing that domestic would underwhelm but international could be solid. Source and More Details
Just days after the couple split, CreamBMP.com wrote that she said she was expecting a child and the father was the rapper at the BET Hip Hop Awards in Altanta.
“I assure you she’s been doing a lot more than twerking,” the site quoted him as saying. CreamBMP.com then added that Cyrus “blurted out” they were “expecting.” When the crowd began to laugh, she reportedly said, “No, I’m really pregnant.”
CreamBMP.com even quoted her father Billy Ray, who said she broke his “achy breaky heart” by getting pregnant with Juicy J’s child. Source and More Details
The suspect is a 19-year old man from Temecula, near Los Angeles. Wolf is from Orange County, California.
The FBI in Southern California has identified the sextortion suspect as Jared James Abrahams. Investigators say he committed cybercrimes. They say he hacked into victims' accounts.
The FBI says there are multiple victims.
Unless it's all an elaborate prank, West was apparently angered by this video, which makes fun of the rapper's recent interview with BBC Radio 1's Zane Lowe in which West describes himself as the "biggest" rock star ever.
Most of West's profanity-laced, all-caps tweets can't be reproduced on the website of a family newspaper. (Kimmel stayed pretty calm throughout the exchange.) The Hollywood Reporter has a run-down of the blow-up, which includes doctored photos posted by West of SpongeBob SquarePants with profane captions. Source and more details
In a review for The Times, Robert Abele wrote that Wan and co-writer Leigh Whannell "confidently line up their ducks in a row for more of the same half-shocks, fraught wanderings, horror-repurposed items ... and garish PG-13 apparitions. But after the pleasurable free fall into old-fashioned nightmare artistry that was last summer's 'The Conjuring,' this busy-yet-dull sequel feels like Wan robotically flexing his manipulation of fright-film signposts, an exercise more silly than sinister."

Today marks the 32nd birthday of the celebrated singer who was born on Sept. 4, 1981 in Houston, Texas. Beyonce rose to fame with the girl group Destiny's Child, releasing four hit studio albums with the group and winning Grammy awards for singles such as "Say My Name" and "Survivor." In the years since Destiny's Child's hiatus, Beyonce has gone on to lead a highly successful solo career, marry rapper Jay-Z and give birth to her first child, Blue Ivy Carter, and expand her empire to films and fashion.

The show and his presentation reminds me of Richard when he was at the phase of his career that had him giving concerts based primarily of improv work. He had me thinking that I would surely hear a "Mongo Santa Maria" type of bit, which I did, and that was perfect. He also gave us some new material that gave us a reminder of the genus that he is. Real fans will be able to appreciate the way his work has evolved and the courage that it takes to make such a drastically different move. No, he did not do sketch and bits, he did his show based on his interactions and based on what the crowd gave him. The problem is that today's crowds seem to only want bit work and pre-written jokes.
The problem with many of the reviews here is that people were expecting him to come and perform "sketch comedy". Things that you can easily see if you turn on an ole episode of his highly successful show. Pay attention and you will see that none of his stand up work has ever really referenced the show. Many of the people at the show seem to have only heard of his show because of Half Baked and his television series. His body of work is much more than that. Source and More Detail
I'm honestly not sure if this most unstable of shows has ever unsettled me more. The scene between the two sisters lacked box cutters, but it was plenty sharp. There was no acid, but it burned just the same. Breaking Bad is, itself, such a wonderfully elaborate fiction that it has often been possible to forget the scrim of lies and make-believe that's been wrapped around the main characters all this time. But now the truth is raining down like pieces of Wayfarer 515 and the wreckage is just as gruesome. Last week Hank and Walt dodged the debris with busted noses and macho bluster. But Marie and Skyler just let it all crash into them. There were barely any words, just Skyler's nodding head pushing the knife in deeper and deeper. Yes, she knew about Walt when the DEA had them all under lockdown. Yes, she knew when the two cartel cousins shot Marie's husband to hell. Marie's entire existence has been about putting a bright, purple smile on even the most hopeless situations; whatever pain she kept for herself was subsumed first in the illicit rush of petty thievery and then in the micromanaging of her husband's rehabilitation. Over the course of this single one-sided conversation, every bit of optimism and sunshine was stolen right out of her. Source and More Details
The Royal baby photos including the Cambridge’s
The first “official” photos of the baby boy are to be taken by Aunt Pippa Middleton, as well as the future King of England’s grandmother and grandfather. It’s been said that there are already hundreds of royal baby photos, and now the challenge will be to find those perfect select pictures that are fit to upload to Twitter. Source and More Details
With its easy poppy beat and repeated refrains of "You held me down but I got up," and "You're gonna hear me roar," the lead single strikes a determined note for the new album. Source and More Details
Now, to wipe the slate clean, Jackman and director James Mangold (Knight and Day; Girl, Interrupted) have teamed up to bring out the claws once again in The Wolverine. And while it's definitely a more entertaining and far deeper film than the last Wolverine outing, it still falls short of the top tier of Marvel tentpoles like the fizzy Iron Man and Sam Raimi's Spider-Man.
