Watch Orgasmic Preview of Hillary Clinton's 'Broad City' Cameo
18 hours ago
No matter how many delegates Hillary Clinton picks up during Tuesday's primaries, the Democratic frontrunner will undoubtedly receive a bigger boost among young voters the next night: She's making a guest appearance episode of Broad City. Comedy Central has released a preview clip of the candidate's cameo, and — given the extent to which Abbi and Ilana completely lose their minds when they spot the former Secretary of State — it looks like the show will go down as the year's most deliberately hilarious endorsement.
The episode finds Ilana (Ilana Glazer), recently unemployed, »

Murder, mayhem, and cartoon food dropping f-bombs — these are just a few of the things you'll see in the the redband trailer for Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's Sausage Party, an (extremely) R-rated animated comedy about supermarket items who learn the terrifying truth about what humans are buying them for.

Sia beamed in a bombastic performance of "Bird Set Free" from South by Southwest in Austin to Jimmy Kimmel Live! in Los Angeles Monday.
The pop singer was joined onstage by a lone dancer, who flung himself wildly around with equal physicality and grace as Sia belted the thunderous track from a platform placed near the back of the stage.

Watch Samantha Bee Attempt to Understand Donald Trump Supporters
20 hours ago
Throughout Donald Trump's campaign, the mogul has shown an unflappable ability to spout anything, retweet racists and provoke violence, yet not lose a single supporter in the process. In an effort to understand the mind of a Trump supporter – and not the virulent ones that scream "Go back to Auschwitz" at protestors – Full Frontal's Samantha Bee sat down with a pack of young, college-educated Trump fans to hear why they've so staunchly backed the candidate. The results, obviously, were terrifying to Bee.

20 hours ago
John Oliver returned to The Late Show With Stephen Colbert Monday and spoke about the one thing he was sure he would never have to care about the last time he appeared on the show: Donald Trump.
Seven months later, the beleaguered Last Week Tonight host hashed out Trump's continued ascendency and recounted the segment on his HBO show, which sought to take some luster out of Republican frontrunner's famous name by replacing it with his ancestors' original German name, Drumpf.
Last Week Tonight even made a slew of knock-off »

Just days after New Order kicked off their U.S. tour in support of new LP Music Complete with a joyous show at New York's Radio City Music Hall, the dance-rock icons visited The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to perform a muscular take on "Singularity," the latest single off the group's first studio album in 10 years.

Johnny Depp: Donald Trump Is a Brat

Depp was part of a Q&A at Asu where he discussed his role in the comedy website's faux-biopic based on Trump's business book Art of the Deal.

Don Cheadle: Why I Had to Make My Miles Davis Movie
14 March 2016 11:35 AM, PDT
There's a reason that, in an age when everyone from Hank Williams to the Notorious B.I.G. has been blessed with a biopic, a musical giant like Miles Davis had long eluded big-screen treatment. For starters, the idea of trying to do justice to the jazz legend's multifaceted career with a cradle-to-grave template seemed ridiculous; when asked what he'd accomplished, the jazz trumpeter and composer replied with, "Well, I guess I changed music five or six times," and it wasn't an idle boast. There was his tempestuous life story, the kind »
How '10 Cloverfield Lane' Redefines Movie Franchises
14 March 2016 10:34 AM, PDT
Well, it worked.
The typically secretive J.J. Abrams made no attempt to hide how nervous he was about the daring and experimental launch of his latest project — "I don't know if this is going to work," he admitted to Rolling Stone — but the impresario's fears were ultimately unfounded. Despite (or perhaps because of) the fact that the existence of IMAX-sized 10 Cloverfield Lane was only unveiled two months ago, the "blood relative" of 2008's Cloverfield is a bona fide hit. Exploding out of the gate with a $25.2 million opening weekend, the »

Watch Coldplay Fight Storm With Buoyant 'Today' Performance
14 March 2016 9:21 AM, PDT
Coldplay braved the rain Monday for a five-track set on the Today Show, highlighted by three songs from their 2015 LP, A Head Full of Dreams. The quintet opened with the stadium-sized "Hymn for the Weekend," which found frontman Chris Martin crooning from behind a piano adorned with flowers.

The band followed with two more tracks from their new LP: euphoric lead single "Adventure of a Lifetime" and piano ballad closer "Up&Up," along »

14 March 2016 8:09 AM, PDT
The FBI's efforts to force Apple to unlock the San Bernardino shooter's iPhone was the focal point of the latest Last Week Tonight as John Oliver spoke at length about the pros and cons of encryption.
"You may not think of encryption much, but it is pretty fundamental to all our lives," Oliver says. "Encryption can protect the things most important to us: Our financial information, health records, dick pics, trade secrets, dick pics, classified government information, dick pics, our physical location, the physical location of our dicks, credit card information, »
