Adele Says "Hello" to 2017 Grammy Awards: WATCH!
Why…. hello there, Adele!
A year after stumbling through a Grammy Awards performance that was marred by technical difficulties, everyone"s favorite British singer opened the 2017 version of the event by belting out one of her all-time classics.
In front of a packed crowd inside Staples Center in Los Angeles, Adele simply stood on stage Sunday night and did what she does best:
Sing.
The 28-year old dazzles in a sparkling dress during a rendition of “Hello,” hitting every note perfectly and performing with the sort of heart and soul we"ve grown used to hearing from one of the world" best artists.
And then she closed the number with a shout-out to her four-year old son.
"Hello baby," she said sweetly after completing the song, presumably a reference to little Angelo James at home.
Before the ceremony began, Adele won the Grammys for best pop solo performance (for “Hello”) and best pop vocal album (for 25).
She"s pretty darn good, isn"t she?
Along with an Album of the Year nomination, meanwhile, Adele"s latest record earned a pop vocal album of the year nomination, while "Hello,” was up for record of the year, song of the yearand best pop solo performance.
Check out her opening number now:

Keeping Up with the Kardashians Recap: Say Hello to My BIG New Friends!
On E!’s Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 12 Episode 17 Sunday night, fans were introduced to “Khloe’s New Breast Friends.”
No, Malika Haqq is not being replaced.
Meanwhile, Kris Jenner was feeling betrayed by traitorous actions perpetrated by certain family members with regard to Caitlyn Jenner …
Keeping Up with the Kardashians Season 12 Episode 17 began with Kanye West unveiling his now-infamous “Famous” music video.
“There’s so much craziness around everything that this was, like, their peaceful resting time!” Kim said of the nude celebrities in bed.
“I was speechless,” Kris said of the “creepy, powerful, magnificent” video, but she was upset that ‘Ye included none other than Caitlyn.
More on Cait in just a few moments …
While this was going on, Kourtney Kardashian revealed to Scott that she was taking the kids out of town for three weeks, without Scott.
That didn’t go over so well with LD.
“I realize that Kourtney and I aren’t together, but we do spend every day together with the kids,” he lamented to the cameras after this.
“It does feel like a very long time.”
As he moped around bored, Khloe became annoyed by his presence, but wanted to make sure he wasn’t going to start partying either.
You don’t have to watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online to know that’s a real threat, so she encouraged him to resume an old hobby:
House-flipping! Naturally.
Khloe had her own insecurities on display this week, noting that she has always had “somewhat decent-sized boobs,” or at least she did.
Her recent weight loss reduced them considerably, so that “revenge body” might in need of a makeover, if you know what we’re saying.
As Khloe contemplated getting a boob job, she placed large gel inserts in her bra and shoved her giant fake breasts in everyone’s face.
Because of course she did.
As attractive (we guess) as that made her feel, her older sister warned that there’s a downside to that massive cleavage people ogle.
Mentally, but also physically.
“It really is a tougher way to live,” Kim cautioned her, and if there’s anyone who would know this, it is she of the iconic Kardashian twins.
Fortunately, this contrived subplot filler died as Khloe went to see a plastic surgeon and was warned about all the possible drawbacks.
Who would’ve guessed?!
A few days later, Kim helped Caitlyn with her outfit for the ESPYs, to which Kris called her in a text message, and we quote, “#disloyal.”
Yes. The hashtag included.
“I don’t fully understand why she’s so angry … and why we’re speaking in hashtags,” Khloe said, and she wasn’t the only one there.
Kris further called Kim out as a “traitor” and said she felt “abandoned,” to which Kim responded that she was just trying to stay neutral.
“I don’t want f–king neutral!” Kris sobbed, and as over the top as this all seemed, Kim ended up feeling guilty and tried to make it right.
How did she accomplish that goal?
By planning a day trip to the suite from Pretty Woman, Kris’ favorite movie. That, and a little reflection, helped the Momager a great deal.
Kris told the cameras at that juncture:
“I think, just if I had known, I would have had time to absorb that. I don’t have anyone to talk to who has been through something similar.”
That much is true, beyond any doubt.
Not a lot of her friends can relate to the specifics of her last divorce – and the transformation of Bruce to Caitlyn following that.
She apologized for getting worked up, and as they all went shopping afterward, they paused to ask the age-old, time-honored question:
“What would Julia Roberts do?”
Words to live by.

Guy Brilliantly Covers "Hello" As 30 Different Disney Characters
For those of you easily entranced by people speaking/singing as your favorite Disney character, well, you are in luck.
Impressionist Brian Hull used over thirty different characters from Disney and Pixar movies for a cover of Adele"s "Hello."
Hull kicked the song off as Olaf from Frozen, changing things up quickly as he impersonated Burt from Mary Poppins, Beauty and the Beast"s Gaston, and even some new faces from Zootopia.
This isn"t Hull"s first rodeo; in 2014 he covered Idina Menzel"s uber-popular single, "Let it Go" from Frozen, using over 21 different voices (since then, the video has racked up over 24 million views since then).
At the time, Hull was a 22-year-old vocal performance major at Dallas Baptist University. He created the video and entered it into a contest to win a $ 100 Disney gift card.
“The night before I submitted my video, I was having second thoughts about how good it was, so I posted it to my Facebook, just so I could get honest feedback from my friends,” Hull told the Examiner back in 2014.
“The next thing I know, they shared it over 200 times and now, the video has over a half million views in a day and a half.”
Hull put the video together with a little help from his friends, and a lot of encouragement from his mom ("she really pushed me to do it," he said).
“I’ve been doing impressions all my life, so I thought, ‘why not put it to work?’"
Hull wanted his work to stand out, and though it was a little more exhausting to impersonate so many characters in just one song, he believed it was worth it.
"With so many covers of "Let it Go" coming out, people may forget the original Disney magic that this song has, so what better way to preserve that magic with other Disney and Pixar characters singing the song!"
Give it a listen. We"re pretty sure you"ll be hooked.

Dance Moms Season 6 Episode 19 Recap: Hello, Goodbye!
With Maddie and Mackenzie Ziegler officially outta here, Lifetime began a new chapter Tuesday with Dance Moms Season 6 Episode 19.
It was reunion time, and Abby Lee Miller was 15 minutes late.
“This does not happen every day,” Abby exclaims, before stating that she needs a new bra and the girls perform to kill time on stage.
Finally on stage, the ALDC shot-caller says Maddie will be going on to judge So You Think You Can Dance, and that she takes credit.
For all of this. No delusions of grandeur on her part at all.
As for Ashlee, one of the most controversial figures throughout the season, Jill went at it with her, saying Ashlee “didn’t know her place.”
Maddie performs “Lizzie Borden,” her creepiest dance yet.
Soon it was the Mini Moms’ time to come on stage, and the regular moms are obviously keen to belittle them for not grasping “sacrifice.”
Melissa thinks the Mini Moms assume they’re the “new generation of Abby,” while Holly notes that they will never “have that legacy.”
Hilariously, these are real comments from people.
We love to talk about how Dance Moms is fake even by reality show standards, and that’s true, but you can’t feign some of this bitterness!
Regarding the future of the ALDC, Miller says she is “still working” and running her Pittsburgh studio, while “trying to put the fires out.”
Federal bankruptcy charges can be a b!tch.
Holly says this season was tough since Abby never showed up on time and all the moms constantly had to wonder what her deal is.
If you watch Dance Moms online, that was true.
On a serious note, Kira Girard wasn’t around much this season, during which she had a son and gave Melissa guardianship of Kalani.
Kira expresses that she is thankful for Melissa since, otherwise, Kalani might have been “replaced” for good in the ranks of the ALDC.
Finally, the reunion concluded with “The Best of Melissa,” showing a montage of great moments, highs and lows from Maddie’s mom.
There will be “no other Melissa, Maddie or Mackenzie,” Jill says, thankful for her time with Melissa and noting that they’ll be friends forever.
Even Abby gets a little choked up at her exit, saying:
“With my whole heart … this is just the beginning.”

Wilmer Valderrama on Grey"s Anatomy: Hello, Handsome!
We’re very sorry to tell you this, Demi Lovato.
But Wilmer Valderrama has found a potential new love interest.
Don’t worry, though. It’s for a fictional television role!
Valderrama guest-starred on Grey’s Anatomy Season 12 Episode 17 on Thursday night, six years after Lovato also made an appearance on the ABC drama, coming on board as a musician who is suffering Multiple Sclerosis.
That’s a pretty serious illness, but it didn’t prevent the actor from doing some serious flirting with Jerrika Hinton’s Stephanie.
The character made some romantic progress by the end of the hour, too. So expect more Valderrama hotness in the weeks to come.
There were two other major developments on this Grey’s Anatomy Season 12 installment as well:
- Meredith learned the real reason why Owen has such issues with Nathan. It’s because he was with another woman when Owen’s sister was killed in that helicopter crash.
- April filed for a restraining order against Jackson after overhearing that he was planning to sue for full custody of their child… even though this was never Jackson’s idea, it was his mother’s.
Did you catch the episode?
Are you excited to see more of Wilmer?
You can always visit our friends at TV Fanatic to watch Grey’s Anatomy online and get yourself up to speed.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Trailer: Hello, Dubai!
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is about to bring the really crazy drama.
And also the really giant hotel rooms.
In an extended trailer for all the crazy action to come this season, we see Lisa Rinna, Eileen Davidson and company leave their posh surroundings of Beverly Hills for the TOTALLY AND INSANE posh surroundings of Dubai.
Even the ladies themselves seem overwhelmed by their accommodations on this vacation.
A few also seem overwhelmed upon meeting Harry Hamlin, while we see a lot of fighting in this preview, along with the returns of Brandi Glanville and Kim Richards.
We told you there was crazy drama ahead, didn"t we?
Those who watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online this spring will also witness a dinner between Erika Girardi, Lisa Rinna and Kathryn Edwards in which one attendee gets the boot…
… while Davidson actually clashes with Rinna for a change.
Is no friendship safe?!?
Also included below:
- A look at Yolanda"s marriage to David Foster falling apart.
- Davidson referring to Rinna as a "genie for knowing what"s happening behind the scenes.
- Someone having wig glue problems.
- Kathryn saying "This is like two shades of bats—t crazy."
Yup. Sounds about right, doesn"t it?

The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 12 Recap: Hello, Huntress!
Damon took quite a few hits on The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 12.
We mean this literally.
Totally distraught over what he did to Elena last week, Damon set out to punish himself.
When we first saw the destroyed hero, he was lying in the middle of the street, just as he was when he met Elena way back in the day.
He then killed the poor pedestrian who stopped to see if Damon was okay… before heading to Mystic Grill and slicing off the head of one of Julian’s cronies.
Just as Julian was about to drive a stake through Damon’s heart, though, he realized the sort of pain his nemesis was in and decided on a different course of action instead:
Apparently Julian has been running some kind of underground fight club and he offered Damon the chance to punish himself mentally by getting punished physically.
And Damon was all for it!
He disposed of his first couple foes, using a stake illegally tossed into the ring by a random hot waitress the second time, before it was time for him to take on Julian.
But just as Julian was about to kill Damon once and for all, Valerie swooped in with a spell that caused Julian a lot of pain and Stefan was able to drag Damon away to safety.
Once outside, though, Damon owned up to how he burned Elena alive and Stefan reacted by slugging his troubled brother a few times in the face. OUCH!
But this wasn’t it for either brother:
Damon went home and was paid a visit by the aforementioned hot waitress. She brought tequila and a willingness to have sex.
Stefan, meanwhile, was finally sick and tired of Julian, blaming him for sending Damon into The Phoenix Stone and teaming with Valerie on a cloaking spell. She made him invisible to everyone else and then Stefan yanked out Julian’s heart.
Rest in peace, man. NOT!
Elsewhere this week:
- The pretty cop who tossed Matt in jail last week followed him to Mystic Falls and nearly got herself killed in the process. She now knows all about vampires.
- Caroline learned, the painful way, that her babies are syphoning her vampire power.
- Bonnie, Mary-Louise and Nora tracked The Huntress to a mental institute in Ohio after receiving postcards with an X on them, the signal that she was coming after all who had been stabbed with her sword.
- But they just found an old lady there, someone who at first lied about being the Huntress, but then told Bonnie the truth and was about to kill her…
- … when Enzo randomly showed up.
- After Bonnie left to find Mary-Louise and Nora, she returned to find that Enzo had stolen the Huntress away. To where?!?
- To some kind of chamber, where he burned her old body and where a younger version then appeared, still stuck behind glass.
But she clearly becomes UNstuck at some point because we ended the episode by flashing three years into the future and getting a look at her at the news station building, holding both Stefan and Damon hostage.
Where will this all go on The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 13? We can’t wait to find out!

Adele Says Hello to New Hairstyle, Internet Goes Insane
Adele has given fans something to talk about aside from her ridiculous voice and record-breaking streak of success:
A new hairstyle!
The British superstar debuted the look during her performance of “Hello” on her native country’s version of The X-Factor Sunday night… and Twitter may never be the same as a result.
The bob ‘do is several inches shorter than the hairstyle Adele has been rocking since returning to the music scene with a new album several weeks ago.
And viewers have had A LOT to say about it.
“I wonder how many people will cut their hair short now in hope they’ll look like Adele,” wondered one Interet user, while another was effusive with her praise:
“ADELES NEW HAIR IS FLAWLESS.”
Like just about everything regarding Adele these days.
“Hello,” of course,” is the first single off of Adele’s long-awaited new studio album.
The track shattered all records for its first week of release, selling more than 3 million copies.
It has also remained on the top of numerous Billboard charts and is still number-one on the Hot 100, Adult Contemporary, Adult Top 40, Dance/Mix Show Airplay and Mainstream Top 40 charts.
Via her music, Adele has had an impact on dogs and on marching bands around the nation.
But will she have a style impact now, due to this shorter haircut?
We’re going to take a not-so-wild guess and say YES. Look for the Adele to soon rival Rachel’s iconic haircut on Friends oh so many years ago.

Marching Band Slays Unique Version of Adele"s "Hello"
The influence of Adele continues to be felt near and far, home and abroad.
Pretty much anywhere and everywhere, to be honest.
We"ve already seen Britney Spears bust out some ballet in honor of the artist, dancing beautifully on Instagram to Adele"s smash hit single, "Hello."
We"ve also seen how this same track can stop a baby from crying. Even a baby who is crying hysterically as a result of teething.
Now, courtesy of the helpful website My Fanatic, we"re privy to something we never thought we"d see before:
A college marching band putting its own twist on "Hello."
We already know what you"re thinking: How is this possible? How can a marching band perform to such a slow, emotional, sentimental ballad?
It doesn"t exactly lend itself to loud instruments or any kind of dancing.
During the halftime of the Bayou Classic – a football game played each year between rivals Southern University and Grambling State University – the latter"s marching band answered this question.
It took to the field and put on a stunning, gorgeous performance set to the song that is breaking every conceivable music record after just a few weeks of release.
See how the musicians do it below and prepare for your jaw to hit the floor.
This is pretty amazing stuff:

Adele Performs "Hello:" Prepare Yourself For THE FEELS
British talk show host Graham Norton had the pleasure of interviewing Adele for her special, Adele at the BBC, a highly-anticipated event that saw the Oscar winner take to the stage after a three-year hiatus.
The special, due to air November 20th (the same day Adele"s album, 25, drops) was one fans had waited for.
"Hello," Adele"s first single off the album, was downloaded one million times in its first week, according to People.
Norton asked the star if she hesitated before recording this album.
"It was that thing of, "Do I or don"t I want to go back to my music?" And obviously I do," Adele said. "I just wanted to make sure everything was in place."
Like a girl after my own heart, Adele added, "I can"t do anything else. This is all that I like doing."
Yes you can. You"re glorious.
The special"s performance was as moving as the one from the 2011 MTV VMAs, a beautiful, heart-breaking rendition of "Someone Like You." Both were powerful as he*k, and both were enough to make you sit still and wonder how it"s possible to be this moved.
Adele also covers November"s Rolling Stone, a flawless masterpiece without a stitch of makeup. She spoke of the ups and downs that came with her exposure to the monster that is fame.
"People think I hate being famous. And I don"t. I"m really frightened of it," she said. "I think it"s really toxic … Watching Amy [Winehouse] deteriorate is one of the reasons I"m a bit frightened. We were all very entertained by her being a mess."
Keep on, keepin" on sister.

Adele Says "Hello" to Milestone, Goodbye to Taylor Swift
It’s been only a few days since Adele said hello once again to the music world via the release of her song “Hello” and its accompanying video.
But the artist needed only one of those days to set a new milestone online.
After debuting the single to rave reviews (from such A-Listers as Katy Perry and Kate Hudson, no less) on Friday, Adele has gone ahead and set the mark for most video views on VEVO in a 24-hour period.
She’s knocked Taylor Swift’s Bad Blood music video from its perch in the process.
Swift’s four-minute film of a video amassed 20.1 million views within its opening 24 hours of release, a figure Adele blew past between Friday morning and Saturday morning.
The British sensation’s video (which features actor Tristan Wilds) racked up an incredible 27.7 million views in just one full day of viral popularity.
Adele took three years off between albums, but she will release “25” on November 20.
She will then serve as the musical guest on Saturday Night Live the very next day, on an episode hosted by Matthew McConaughey.
Now that’s some savvy marketing.
But Adele barely requires any marketing, to be honest.
While Swift filled her beloved video with many famous names and faces (below), Adele mostly just showed off her unparalleled pipes in hers.
Still, that was enough to set it on an historic path. Impressive.

Adele Says "Hello" with New Song, Video
Adele is back.
And it"s safe to say the singer has not lost a single step note.
Following a lengthy hiatus, the ultra-talented artist has dropped a new song and an affiliated new video for “Hello,” unveiling visually-stunning footage directed by Xavier Dolan.
The ballad, which serves as an ode to an ex-lover, will be included on Adele’s upcoming record, “25.” It will come out on November 20.
"Hello from the other side," Adele sings beautifully on the track, continuing as only she can:
"I must have called a thousand times to tell you; I’m sorry, for everything that I’ve done; But when I call you never seem to be home."
In an open letter shared earlier in the week, Adele wrote to fans of the album:
Turning 25 was a turning point for me, slap bang in the middle of my twenties .. Teetering on the edge of being an old adolescent and a fully-fledged adult, I made the decision to go into becoming who I"m going to be forever without a removal van full of my old junk.
I miss everything about my past, the good and the bad, but only because it won"t come back.
Take a listen to the gorgeous single now and let the countdown to Adele"s 11-track album officially begin.

Kris Jenner -- Say Hello To My Little Friend (PHOTO)
Z STAFF
Don’t mess with Kris Jenner in Paris.
The Kardashian matriarch is all over Fashion Week … although it’s hard to spot her in the considerable shadow of her mammoth new bodyguard, who is a dead ringer for a modern day Thor.
Sure, Kris is only 5’6″ … but her slab of beef-for-hire looks to be at least THREE heads taller than her. Warning: Approach the momager with extreme care.
King Kong (and the Eiffel Tower, for that matter) ain’t got nothing on him.
