STEW BITS:

First of all, I need to correct an error I made on the November 8 episode of Stew Bits. I had originally stated that Ellen Degeneres was the first to share the cover of Oprah Winfrey's O Magazine with her, when in fact, it was First Lady Michelle Obama who was the first the share the O Mag cover.

-------------------------------

This weekend filled itself with public opinions, blog and social website comments, and personal views regarding Friday's airing of Rihanna's interview of 20/20 and Chris Brown's interview on MTV.

With both scheduled to release albums later this month, it also raised skeptisim of the timing of the interviews.

-------------------------------

On December 11, Walt Disney Animation will release The Princess and the frog, an animated comedy set in the great city of New Orleans. From the creators of The Little Mermaid and Aladdin comes a modern twist on a classic tale, featuring a beautiful girl named Tiana, a frog prince who desperately wants to be human again, and a fateful kiss that leads them both on a hilarious adventure through the mystical bayous of Louisiana.

A new generation of TV talk-show hosts takes aim at the old guard. Jay Leno is struggling in prime time. David Letterman has been scandal-scarred. And under Conan OBrien, The Tonight Show has seen its longtime ratings lead crumble. Cue the new contenders: Comedians George Lopez, MoNique and Wanda Sykes are elbowing into the crowded late-night field. Theyre vowing to shake things up, but it wont be easy. This is a hidebound format that hasnt changed all that much since Johnny Carson.

Its the same formula, plugging in different names, says Arsenio Hall, adding that he faced the same problem in 1989 when he first went up against Carson and company. Then, however, hip-hop culture was exploding, offering an open lane to Mr. Hall, who recalls his strategy as, Instead of going after whats on Johnnys plate, Im going after what he doesnt eat. Now, media saturation makes that model tough to replicate.

Nevertheless, Mr. Hall, who frequently appears in sketches for Jay Leno, is shopping a project he developed with one of Jimmy Kimmels producers. He describes it as a reinvented talk vehicle.

When Bill Cosby announced his plans to release a rap album, the widespread reaction was one of confusion. Best known for his role as lovable Dad Cliff Huxtable on The Cosby Show, his iconic Jell-O Pudding commercials, and, most recently, impassioned speeches on the moral failings of the black community, Cosby seemed an unlikely hip-hop enthusiast. But, acting as the creative force behind the album, he brought together three rappers to create Bill Cosby Presents The Cosnarati: State of Emergency.

  • If u made the movie, would u make the prince/king white, I bet u wouldn't so maybe that white person is just like u

  • It would all depend on the base of the movie's setting. This particular movie just so happens to be set in the Bayous of Louisiana. Aladdin happens to be set in the middle east. The Little Mermaid happens to be set in Atlantis. Cinderella happens to be in some sort of continental European community. Sleeping Beauty happens to be set in France. Snow White happens to be set in Germany.

  • Why is everything about race, just be human

  • Everything isn't about race.
