| ‘Pitch Perfect 2’ Interview: Skylar Astin and Ben Platt
In Pitch Perfect 2, the Barden Bellas are graduating, and most of them have to come to the realization that there is life beyond collegiate a cappella competitions. The film has such a strong female presence, that the male cast are the supporting players. It’s a nice change of pace. Skylar Astin plays Jesse, another a cappella singer and Beca’s (Anna Kendrick) boyfriend, while Ben Platt plays Jesse’s best friend and Emily’s (Hailee Steinfeld) love interest. We were recently invited to the film’s press conference where we talked about what it was like to work with Elizabeth Banks (who makes her directorial debut), improving, the evolution of their characters, some hilarious outtakes, and more. Read our full interview with the Astin and Platt below.

| Spike TV’s ‘Lip Sync Battle’ Renewed For Season 2!
Spike TV’s biggest show ever, Lip Sync Battle, has just been renewed for a second season, after just four episodes. This viral sensation, which started out as a Jimmy Fallon bit, first on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, and then on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, got its own show that premiered on Spike on April 2nd, 2015. That was quick, right? It is no surprise though. The show is mindless fun. The game pits two celebrities (not B, C, or D-listers either) against each other for two rounds of songs. The audience picks the winner. It is not just lip syncing to songs that are sometimes incongruous to the person performing. The production goes all out, with costumes, props, backup dancers, and sometimes guests. Check out some of those videos below.

| Lip Sync Battle: Anna Kendrick vs John Krasinski (Video)
I have been dying to start regularly watching Lip Sync Battle on Spike TV once I knew my boyfriend Jimmy Fallon‘s Lip Sync bit had been made into an entire show. The bit is great. The show is just more of the greatness. LL Cool J is an enthusiastic host and Chrissy Teigan is cute in the corner with her comments, not afraid to get caught dancing and lip syncing herself. Watch all the videos below to see who was the victor!
