Boy George denied US visa, can't give NYC concert
NEW YORK —

Do they really want to hurt him? That's the question Boy George's managers are asking U.S. authorities now that the 47-year-old singer has been denied a visa to enter the country.
The Culture Club frontman, whose real name is George O'Dowd, had planned a U.S. tour this summer, including a free concert at the New York City Department of Sanitation's Family Day in August. He worked for the department in 2006 while performing court-ordered community service in a drug case.
His managers said in a statement Monday that O'Dowd has been denied a visa because he's awaiting trial in London.
The singer, whose hits include "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" and "Karma Chameleon," has pleaded not guilty to imprisoning a man at his London home.
The U.S. Department of State said visa records are confidential so it couldn't comment.

New Dead Pilot Release To Feature The Doom Riot
Buckinghamshire's Dead Pilot Records will continue their fascination with exquisitely packaged limited Ambient/Drone releases by issuing The Doom Riot "Slow Estate Dreams"
"Slow Estate Dreams" is the work of the ever prolific Claus Haxholm, performing under his Doom Riot guise. Always working on new releases, here Claus presents us with what is probably his best piece of work yet.
From deep dense drones to harsh in the red noise to shimmering ambiance and beyond, with track titles such as "Driving Home at Night" and "Silence in the Heart" fitting with perfection to the soundscapes and noises that they present to us, Claus has made an album which captures those small but intense life moments of euphoria.
"Blue Light Cold as Regret" is a wonderfully layered and textured piece that really does reflect upon regret in such an otherworldy manner; recalling the shoegaze sound and pushing it's limits in a hazy, woozy and reflective wall of noise.
But noise isn't really the right word to use at all. One for fans of Belong, Glass Organ and Jefre Cantu-Ledesma, this has to be heard to be understood.
It should be noted, that the first 20 editions of this record, come with a bonus 3" disc of alternative material.
Pre-orders are now being taken.

Diddy Says He's Impressed With Actors Playing Himself, Notorious B.I.G. In Biggie Biopic
Tom Hulce could make Mozart into an 18th-century Bruce Springsteen and no one would be the wiser, but if Jamie Foxx didn't sound and move exactly like Ray Charles, his failure would be evident for all the world to see.
It's the major pitfall of playing a contemporary figure, and one that's made even more difficult when the figure you're portraying actually shows up to watch your performance.
Luckily, the cast of "Notorious," an upcoming biopic about the late Biggie Smalls, comes through with flying colors, insisted Sean Combs, who is portrayed in the film alongside other hip-hop artists like Lil' Kim, Tupac Shakur and, of course, the Notorious B.I.G.
"It's rare that you get a movie made about you when you're still relevant, but [they] took on the challenge," Combs said of the cast, adding that he was especially impressed with actor Derek Luke, who is playing Diddy. "People asked me years ago who you'd want to play me, and I said Derek Luke ... so it was just destined. I got to see him do his thing, and it was scary for me. I had to leave, 'cause he was acting just like me."
But while he had high praise for Luke, Combs saved his greatest enthusiasm for Jamal "Gravy" Woolard, a young rapper cast as one of the greatest MCs of all time.
"Gravy, the guy playing B.I.G., it was just too eerie for me to be on that," Combs marveled. "Gravy's killing it. If I tell you he's killing it, then that's all we need to say, you know what I'm saying? I don't think anybody could have done a better job."
"It's a little creepy," echoed the flick's music supervisor, Deric "D-Dot" Angelettie. "You know he's not B.I.G., and we accepted that, [but all of] B.I.G.'s people ... looked to Gravy and said, 'You can play B.I.G. You could do it!' I believe that Gravy has studied hard enough; I think he got enough battle scars from the streets that he could pull it off. We're very happy that he's a part of it."
Angelettie revealed that, as music consultant, he's been working with the actors to "make sure they sound like B.I.G. and [his widow] Faith [Evans] and Kim," he said. "To make sure the beats are right, the soundtrack is going to be right."
But as much as the film is about music, about the story of one man's journey from Brooklyn to the penthouse, it's more about Biggie's mother, Combs asserted. Voletta Wallace, who lives in the New Jersey house her son owned, will be played in the film by Oscar nominee Angela Bassett.
"It's not my movie," Combs said. "A lot of people don't know this, but it's not my movie. It's Miss Wallace's movie. It's from a mother's perspective. I'm just there as support."
"It's good for his mom. It gives [her] some relief that the world really appreciated her son. It's good for Brooklyn, it's good for hip-hop," Angelettie added. "It's [gonna be] very good."
"Notorious" will open in January.

Fans beg Winehouse to quit drugs after video
Fans of troubled singer Amy Winehouse have begged her to get help after she was caught on video apparently smoking crack cocaine.
Footage obtained by The Sun appears to show her inhaling fumes from a crack pipe after an apparent 19-minute drugs binge in which she snorted ecstasy, cocaine and admitted to taking Valium tablets.
The disturbing images were said to have been filmed during a party at Winehouse's London home in the early hours of last Friday, just before she attended a court hearing for husband Blake Fielder-Civil. He is awaiting trial on charges of assault and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
Looking dishevelled and wearing a grubby black vest in the video, Winehouse was barely able to talk. When friends ask her to go out with them, she is heard to reply: "I'd be useless to you because I've had about six Valium."
On the singer's website, fans warned the 24-year-old that she would die unless she sought help.
One fan said: "That video of you at home, which is now doing the rounds, will hopefully be instrumental in getting you where you need to be."
The fan quoted the mother of the late Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain, warning Winehouse not to "join that stupid club" of dead rock stars.

'Prince Caspian' set for boxoffice crown
'Narnia' sequel could gross $85 mil with limp competition
Disney has nabbed one heck of a nice release slot this weekend.
For starters, last session's disappointing "Speed Racer" bow means Disney's all-important opener "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian" will see only limp competition from the rival family film. Then, though the following weekend features the debut of presumed boxoffice behemoth "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," it's the four-day Memorial Day session, and that should offer plenty of moviegoing interest for both releases.
There's already talk that the "Narnia" sequel will gross north of $300 million during its domestic run, as first installment "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" rung up $292 million and sequels tend to do better. As for how big "Prince" will open, it likely will be measured against two precedents: the $65.6 million bow of its franchise progenitor in December 2005 and the $121.6 million debut of DreamWorks Animation's "Shrek the Third" during the comparable frame in May 2007.
Industry consensus has "Prince" opening maybe 40% higher than the original and grossing $85 million or more this weekend. Yet the year-ago "Shrek" figure is well out of reach, so the weekend boxoffice probably will underperform the comparable 2007 frame despite another lucrative session -- just as with the huge opening for "Iron Man" two weeks ago.
The PG-rated "Prince" has been scoring high in prerelease surveys for must-see sentiment among all demographics and has drawn solid early reviews from critics. The second book in a 1950s children's literature series written by the theologically rooted C.S. Lewis, the sequel features a more adult central character via the title role, played by Ben Barnes ("Stardust").
"This is the quintessential general-audience film -- moms and dads, families, date-pic couples, teens by themselves -- this plays to everybody," Disney distribution president Chuck Viane said.
The film will play in slightly more than 3,900 theaters during its first weekend. Disney executives said they didn't feel a need to push for 4,000 playdates, are in every location they want to be and weren't handicapped by the previous 4,000-plus bow of "Iron Man" or the looming market entry of the "Indiana Jones" sequel.
Walden Media is a co-financer and equity partner on the film, which totes production costs of nearly $200 million.
Elsewhere this weekend, Warner Bros. hopes "Speed Racer" can mount a decent second-week showing. But the likelihood is its grosses will plunge with the market entry of "Prince," yielding another downbeat session for the distributor and its partner Village Roadshow.
On the other hand, Paramount and Marvel hope that repeat viewings and continued broad interest in "Iron Man" will carry the PG-13 film to another solid weekend. The May opener almost no one thought could get to $300 million suddenly is a candidate to do just that, but it will bear watching how the comic book adaptation performs this weekend and next.
