Miranda Lambert
Miranda Leigh Lambert (born November 10, 1983 in Longview, Texas) is an American country music artist who gained fame as a finalist on the 2003 season of Nashville Star, where she finished in third place and later signed to Epic Records. Lambert made her debut with the release of "Me and Charlie Talking", the first single from her 2005 debut album Kerosene. This album, which was certified Platinum in the United States, also produced the singles "Bring Me Down", "Kerosene", and "New Strings". All four singles were Top 40 hits on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts.
After the closure of Epic's Nashville division, Lambert was transferred to Columbia Records Nashville for her second album, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, which was released in early 2007. Although the title track failed to make top 40, the next three singles ("Famous in a Small Town", "Gunpowder & Lead", and "More Like Her") were all Top 20 hits, with "Gunpowder & Lead" becoming her first Top 10 country hit in July 2008. Lambert's third album, Revolution, was released in September 2009. Four singles have been released from the album, including Lambert's first Number One hit in "The House That Built Me," which spent four weeks at the top

Conan" loses one-third of TV audience on 2nd night
(Reuters) - Audiences for Conan O'Brien's much-hyped new TV talk show dropped by one-third on his second night out and some critics began to tire of jokes about his bitter departure from rival NBC.
Some 2.8 million people watched Tuesday night's "Conan," down from 4.2 million viewers for the red-haired comedian's debut on TBS one night earlier, the cable network said on Wednesday.
Audience figures for NBC's "The Tonight Show" -- which O'Brien quit in January in a showdown with veteran comedian Jay Leno -- were not available but Leno has been averaging 3.6 million viewers nightly so far this season.
O'Brien's return to late night television after a nine month absence had been hotly-anticipated, particularly by his younger fans. The average age of the "Conan" vie

Judge Rejects Gag Order in Mel Gibson Case
Sources tell TMZ ... Oksana Grigorieva's lawyers did not want a gag order, partly because other people -- including members of the L.A. County Sheriff's Department -- were talking about the case and impacting Oksana's public profile. In the end, Judge Gordon did not see it fit to issue a gag order.
We're also told both Mel and Oksana testified today about the custody arrangement. Oksana is asking the judge to deny Mel all overnight visits, on grounds Mel's nanny allegedly cares for the baby and she needs full-time parenting ... also she believes Mel is a danger to Lucia. But Mel is sticking by the trie
Morning Glory Buries the Lead, Goes for Fluff
Early-morning TV news shows like Today and Good Morning America tend to be a random mix of features, interviews, entertainment, and some bursts of actual hard news. Perhaps it's fitting that Morning Glory, a comedy about one such program, should be just as scattered and unfocused, trying to be all things to all people and not doing any of those things particularly well. Like its subject matter, this is a movie to have on in the background while you're getting ready for work, not one you sit down and savor every minute of.The savvy, upbeat dynamo called Rachel McAdams plays the lead, Becky Fuller, a 28-year-old broadcast professional who, at the top of the film, is let go from her position as a produ

Caso Ruby, il pm dei minori attacca Maroni: "Non ha detto la veritÃ
Il ministro: «Il caso è chiuso»
ROMA
Non ha «mai autorizzato» l’affidamento di Ruby il pm dei minori di Milano Annamaria Fiorillo, e vuole che «si sappia». Per questo oggi ha presentato un ricorso al Csm chiedendo che chiarisca «la discrepanza tra i dati di realtà che sono a mia conoscenza e le dichiarazioni rese dal ministro Maroni avallate da quelle del Procuratore Bruti Liberati». Per i quali, invece, «il caso è chiuso». Domani Palazzo dei Marescialli esaminerà l’istanza ma alcuni consiglieri hanno già fatto notare che il Csm non c’entra e non ha spazio per un intervento.
Potrebbe portare a un nuovo scontro tra istituzioni, o forse solo tra magistrati, la vicenda di Ruby, la giovane marocchina protagonista dell’inchiesta milanese per favoreggiamento della prostituzione che ha raccontato di essere stata ospite ad Arcore, dal premier.
