A group of musicians -- including Paul Simon and jazz legend Herbie Hancock -- has banded together to call for a boycott of CBS, which airs the awards ceremony, and is investigating a legal response to the Grammy cutbacks. As artist Bobby Sanabria put it in an interview with the AP, "We will ask people to stop watching CBS, boycott their sponsors and then write them. We’re at a critical juncture."

The show also won awards in the categories of Best Supporting Actress (Heather Tom), Best Younger Actor (Scott Clifton) and Best Drama Series Direction, for which it tied with ‘The Young and the Restless.’

After passing on the much-debated 'Wonder Woman' pilot, NBC announced Friday that it is canceling freshman series 'The Event,' 'Law & Order: Los Angeles' and 'Outsourced.'

Deadline is exclusively reporting that British actor Hugh Grant was "deep in final negotiations" to replace Charlie Sheen on the long running - and currently in limbo - CBS sitcom 'Two and a Half Men.' However, at the last minute, Grant pulled out, due to creative differences.

In a radio interview in France (via RadarOnline), Helgenberger let it slip that Bieber "was kind of a brat. He was very nice to me. But he locked one of the producers in a closet and he put his fist through a cake that was on the cast's table."

Sources tell The Hollywood Reporter that Lorre has pitched a reboot of the series that would involve a “significant role” for co-star Jon Cryer and introduce a new, yet-to-be-cast character.

'Lands End' was a grand mansion on Long Island's North Shore, which was built by a newspaper publisher in 1902.

For a period of time during the '20s, Fitzgerald lived across the bay from Lands End, and would watch the lavish, celebrity-filled parties which took place within its confines. He later incorporated many of these observation into 'The Great Gatsby.'

According to the Chicago Tribune, the troubled actor, who is in the midst of his 'Violent Torpedo of Truth / Defeat Is Not an Option' tour, sat down with a local Boston radio station Tuesday night, during which he said there have been "discussions" about a possible return to the top-rated CBS sitcom.

"There have been discussions, but I was asked not to divulge anything," he told WBZ-FM.

Sheen also admitted that his erratic behavior played a role in getting him fired from the series.

Because of her naughty sexting and allegations that say 38-year-old Lane beat up a female cop, she was canned by the TV network in 2008.

Insiders claim that a top network executive is ready to move on from Sheen's recent erratic behavior, which included a very public fallout with show creator Chuck Lorre, in which the tiger blood-fueled Sheen referred to Lorre as a "clown" and a "turd," among other things.

Thursday night was Justin Bieber's second appearance on the CBS crime Drama, "CSI". Bieber was reprising his role as Jason McCann. While his first appearance on the show marked his acting debut, his second (and final) appearance on the show ended in a hail of gunfire.
