"Storm and Grace" best thing from Presley since "Suspicious Minds"

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Some thoughts on Lisa Marie Presley: "Too bad she ain't just like her daddy/Oh what a shame/She got no talent of her own/It's just her name." No, that's not our review.

For music stars in an era of weak record sales, the trend spells victory for their bank account, but for fans and the music industry always hungering for a new star, it's a loss. And for TV networks, the once cheap-to-produce shows are ever more expensive, yet they don't always pay off in bigger audiences. ...

"Glee" album a po(m)p and circumstance-themed "Graduation"

LOS ANGELES (TheWrap.com) - Lest they take over Dick Clark's old title as the "world's oldest teenagers," some of the "Glee" kids are finally graduating (from high school, if not the series).
