Floyd weighed in at 149.5 ... some room to grow. Congrats to Calvin Klein, the maker of McGregor's underwear, for containing the beast. Irish eyes are smiling. Floyd and Conor now have just one date left -- when they square off in Vegas on...

Could acoustic lightening strike twice? 2006 was a mythical, magical year for John Carney when Once took the Sundance Film Festival and film world by storm. With buffer items Zonad (2009) and The Rafters (2012) only whetting our appetite for another Carney gem, 2013’s surprise box office indie hit Begin Again (with Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo and Adam Levine) sort of got us back in the saddle. We now come full circle back to another micro film with potentially lots of heart. Considered a cousin to Once, Carney enlists U2’s Bono and The Edge for the this when Irish eyes are smiling coming-of-ager romance. Currently in the midst of a certain restructuring, the Weinsteins picked up Sing Street in at the Cannes Film Fest in 2014 and it was kept off the 2015 slate. Could this semi-biographical tale be tuned up as a crowd-pleasing Park City item?

The Vice Presidential debate between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan is Thursday night, and People got the jump on things by asking Joe Biden and Congressman Paul Ryan from Wisconsin to go toe-to-toe on ... tunes. And they proved about as far apart on music as they are on, well, Medicare. Favorite song on the campaign trail? Biden chose the soulful and sultry love song "You Are The Best Thing," by Ray Lamontagne, while Ryan went with AC/DC's hard-rocking "It's a Long Way to the Top." Sentimentality also hit different notes in the category "song that reminds me of home.

The West End welcomes Zach Braff and awaits Mark Rylance and Omid Djalili, but Pop Idol star won't be joining them as Hair tour is pulled; meanwhile, the passport office insults actors
Scrubs up?
Some big names floating around the ether this week, with news that Mark Rylance's productions of Richard III and Twelfth Night (with a cast that also includes Stephen Fry) will transfer into the West End following a run at Shakespeare's Globe this summer.

Actor who revealed the story of two great Russian collectors of modern and impressionist art
Beverly Whitney Kean, who has died aged 89, was a semi-mythical figure to art historians in Russia, the Us and Europe. Her book All the Empty Palaces: The Merchant Patrons of Modern Art in Pre-Revolutionary Russia had no precedent or rival. It is still the definitive account of the two great Moscow collectors who put together before 1914 the finest collection ever known, at the time or since, of impressionist and modern French painters, owning between them more than 50 Matisses, 43 Picassos and 27 Gauguins, not to mention Monets, Renoirs and Van Goghs. The book is a gripping read, authoritative, revelatory and impeccably researched. But what makes it unique is its date of publication, which was 1983.
Virtually nothing was known at the time about Sergei Shchukin or Ivan Morozov, whose names had been obliterated from the Soviet record. Shchukin,...

"America's Next Top Model" returns tonight with its 14th season, which means that absolutely no one on that show should still be entertaining any delusions that they will one day be a successful model. That'd be like going on "Rock of Love" thinking you're really going to fall in love with and marry Bret Michaels. First of all, they're all too old. If you weren't heaved onto a runway and told to exude an aura of mature sensuality when you were a hungry 14-year-old, you might as well give up. Second of all, it should be pretty obvious by now that the show exists primarily to indulge Tyra Bank's ego. (See also: "The Tyra Show". Ms. Banks has at least two shows worth of ego.) However, I suspect that, like most reality television "stars," the current contestants of "America's Next Top Model" have conflated "famous" with "I acted like an...

Mariah Carey, busy promoting her new album Memoirs Of An Imperfect Angel, says her Irish mother Patricia Carey kept her going when she was trying to break into the music business. Mariah's parents divorced when she was a child and she moved 13 times with her mother before settling down in a suburb on Long Island. She says her mom, nee Hickey, would say "not if but when" Mariah would make it. Her mother's backing was important for the young Mariah. Her father told her to concentrate on her maths while her teachers felt she was wasting her time. Still, Mariah persevered. While still a teenager Carey started recording even while she was holding down a job in a restuarant. Her musician friends couldn't understand why she was working so hard. She said she looked at them, with nowhere to go in the middle of the day and thought: "Because I...
