Taylor Swift is raising a glass to Ebon Moss-Bachrach after The Bear actor named the pop star in his acceptance speech at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards. Moss-Bachrach took home the award for best supporting actor in a comedy series for his work on The Bear, on which he portrays Richard ‘Richie’ Jerimovich, on Sunday […]

Ariana DeBose wasn’t amused by a joke made at her expense during the 2024 Critics Choice Awards.
While presenting the best song award on Sunday (Jan. 14), Last of Us star Bella Ramsey and actor-singer Anthony Ramos introduced the nominees Billie Eilish, Lenny Kravitz and Dua Lipa as “some of the most famous voices in the music industry” before taking a dig at DeBose.

“Then there are the actors who think they’re singers: Jack Black, Ariana DeBose and Ken himself, Ryan Gosling,” Ramsey added.

The camera then cut to the Academy Award winner and Tony nominee, who appeared offended before moving on to a chucking Gosling, whose “I’m Just Ken” from Barbie took home the award.

DeBose — who was nominated for “This Wish” from Disney’s animated movie of the same title — later addressed the joke on social media.

“No, I didn’t find it funny,” the Broadway star wrote in her Instagram Stories on Monday (Jan. 15), adding “lol.”

DeBose received support from her outraged fans on X (formerly Twitter).

“Ariana DeBose, Oscar award winning, Tony nominated, OG cast member of Hamilton on BROADWAY…. “THINKS she’s a singer”?!? Who wrote this bit?! I want names #CriticsChoiceAwards, one fan wrote.

Another added, “The disrespect to Academy Award winner, Tony nominee, Broadway star, Ariana DeBose is WILD. The look on her face really said it all.”

Last year, DeBose received backlash on social media after performing an original rap in honor of the female nominees during the show-opening musical medley at the 2023 BAFTA Awards in London. During the rap number, the West Side Story star named-checked famous actresses like Bassett, Jamie Lee Curtis and Viola Davis.

Empire of the Sun’s “Walking on a Dream” jogs into APRA AMCOS’ The 1,000,000,000 List, an accolade that recognizes one billion streams clocked up across all platforms.

Released as the project’s debut single in 2008, the track cracked the top 10 (peaking at No. 10) on the ARIA Singles Chart and won single of the year at the 2009 ARIA Music Awards, one of their four victories on the night.

The following year, at the 2010 APRA Music Awards, the song — written by Nick Littlemore, Luke Steele and Jono Sloan — was awarded dance work of the year and the trio jointly won the breakthrough songwriter award.

Littlemore and Sloan were on hand for a presentation at APRA AMCOS’ Sydney headquarters. The song’s publishers are Universal Music Publishing for Littlemore, Sony Music Publishing for Steele, and Kobalt Music Publishing for Sloan, who BMG previously published.

“It’s an evergreen record,” says Littlemore. “It’s new for every generation. It’s the hope as a songwriter or creator in any sense that you can continually reach the kids and give them something to play back.”

In the U.S., the song had a second life when it was synced to a Honda Civic commercial in 2016, driving it to No. 65 on the Billboard Hot 100 and powering it to No. 1 on Billboard’s Dance Club Songs, their second leader on the tally after 2013’s “Alive”.

Later, in 2022, the song soundbedded a five-year global campaign for Western Australia Tourism, and was nominated last year in the new ARIA Awards category of best use of an Australian recording in an advertisement.

Currently, according to APRA AMCOS, “Walking on a Dream” is 10-times platinum certified in Australia, and platinum in the U.S. and U.K.

“It is an honor to acknowledge ‘Walking on a Dream’, a song that retains its freshness and otherworldly sound no matter what year it is or where you are in the world,” comments Dean Ormston, CEO of APRA AMCOS.

The 1,000,000,000 List acknowledges APRA AMCOS songwriter members and their publishers, and takes into account streaming numbers from major services Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube.

It’s said to be the first award of its kind to celebrate a songwriter’s streaming achievement, and is the inspiration for the BPI’s BRIT Billion Award, which the U.K. trade association introduced in 2023.

Previous recipients of the APRA AMCOS Billions Award include Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker (for “The Less I Know The Better”), Flume (“Never Be Like You”), Troye Sivan and Alex Hope (“Youth”), Tones And I (“Dance Monkey”), 5 Seconds of Summer (“Youngblood”), and SHOUSE (“Love Tonight”).

“I’m Just Ken” from Barbie won best song at the 2024 Critics Choice Awards, which were presented on Sunday (Jan. 14) at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. One week ago, Billie Eilish and Finneas’ “What Was I Made For?” from Barbie won the Golden Globe in that category. With these mixed verdicts, we appear to have a genuine contest on our hands for the Oscar for best original song for the first time in three years. The last two years, “No Time to Die” from the James Bond film of the same name and “Naatu Naatu” from RRR won both of these run-up awards on their way to winning the Oscar.

This is the second Critics Choice Award in this category for “I’m Just Ken” co-writers Mark Ronson and Andrew Wyatt. They won five years ago for co-writing “Shallow” from A Star Is Born with Lady Gaga and Anthony Rossomando.

There doesn’t appear to be much of a contest for the Oscar for best original score. Ludwig Göransson’s work on Oppenheimer won best score at the Critics Choice Award just as it did at the Golden Globes.

The 29th annual Critics Choice Awards, hosted by a funny and sharp Chelsea Handler, aired live on The CW.

Oppenheimer was the top winner on the film side with eight awards (including best picture and best director), followed by Barbie, with six.

All three core cast members of Alexander Payne’s The Holdovers won awards – Paul Giamatti (best actor), Da’Vine Joy Randolph (best supporting actress) and Dominic Sessa (best young actor/actress).

The biggest shutout on the film side was Killers of the Flower Moon, which had 12 nominations, yet went home empty-handed. Maestro and The Color Purple were also shut out, despite eight and five nods, respectively.

The Bear and Beef were the top winners on the TV side, with four awards each, followed by Succession with three.

Two non-competitive awards were presented. Margot Robbie presented her Barbie co-star America Ferrera with the SeeHer Award. James Mangold presented Harrison Ford with the Career Achievement Award.

The show was executive-produced by Bob Bain Productions and Berlin Entertainment. The Critics Choice Association is the largest critics organization in the U.S. and Canada, representing more than 600 media critics and entertainment journalists. It was established in 2019 with the formal merger of the Broadcast Film Critics Association and the Broadcast Television Journalists Association. For more information, visit: www.CriticsChoice.com.

The 66th annual Grammy Awards are almost here, and before Music’s Biggest Night takes over the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday (Feb. 4), this year’s top talent, nominees and more will be spending the week celebrating their achievements at countless parties and events. SZA leads this year’s pack of nominees with nine nods — including […]

Diddy will not be attending the 2024 Grammy Awards on Feb. 4, despite his nomination for best progressive R&B album for his The Love Album: Off the Grid, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The news comes amid a series of sexual assault accusations against the musician and entrepreneur. Explore Explore See latest videos, charts and news […]

Charlie Puth and acclaimed duo The War and Treaty will perform over the In Memoriam spot at the Primetime Emmys on Monday (Jan. 15). And that won’t be the only music moment on the show — Travis Barker will team with show host Anthony Anderson for what the show promises will be “a showstopping open.”
In a promotional appearance, Anderson also revealed his unconventional plan for keeping things moving on Emmy night. Instead of the traditional play-off music to nudge winners to wrap up long acceptance speeches, Anderson’s mother, Doris Bowman (aka Mama Doris), will act as the show’s “enforcer” to ensure a swift pace.

The show will also include cast reunions and tributes to hit TV series spanning more than seven decades, including The Sopranos, Martin, Cheers, Grey’s Anatomy, All in the Family, Ally McBeal and I Love Lucy as well as Saturday Night Live’s signature Weekend Update segment, which will be helmed by Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.

The Emmys teased that performers will re-create the famous candy conveyer belt sequence from I Love Lucy, though they didn’t reveal the brave performers who will attempt to follow in the footsteps of Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance.

TV legend Carol Burnett, who won a Primetime Emmy at last weekend’s Creative Arts Emmys for outstanding variety special (pre-recorded) for Carol Burnett: 90 Years of Laughter + Love will present. Other presenters include Christina Applegate, nominated for outstanding lead actress in a comedy series for Dead to Me, and Natasha Lyonne, nominated in the same category for Poker Face.

Other scheduled presenters include Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones), Coleman Domingo (Euphoria), Tom Hiddleston (Loki), Ke Huy Quan (American Born Chinese) and Anderson’s long-time black-ish co-star, Tracee Ellis Ross.

The 75th Emmy Awards, executive-produced by Jesse Collins, Dionne Harmon and Jeannae Rouzan-Clay of Jesse Collins Entertainment, will broadcast live from the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live in downtown Los Angeles on Monday, Jan. 15 (8:00-11:00 p.m. ET/5:00-8:00 p.m. PT) on FOX and will also be available the next day on Hulu.

Simu Liu is set to host this year’s People’s Choice Awards, and he’s already revealed what you won’t see during his opening monologue: any awkward jokes about Taylor Swift. 
Following Jo Koy’s polarizing performance as host of the Golden Globes Sunday (Jan. 7)  — during which the comedian made a quip that fell flat about Swift’s attendance at NFL games — the Barbie actor has pledged not to shade the “Anti-Hero” singer while on duty at the PCAs.  

“there will be no taylor slander at the 2024 PCAs,” Liu tweeted Thursday (Jan. 11), adding, “that’s a personal guarantee.” 

Aside from the fact that the Shang-Chi star is a well-documented Swiftie himself, it’s hard to imagine that any entertainer would want to have a repeat of Koy’s reception at the Globes. A couple of the stand-up comic’s jokes went over poorly at theceremony, particularly the following: “The big difference between the Golden Globes and the NFL? At the Golden Globes, we have fewer camera shots of Taylor Swift.”  

Immediately after the remark, cameras cut to Swift, who was in attendance as a nominee for cinematic and box office achievement thanks to her Eras Tour concert film (Barbie took home the prize). Her reaction was indifferent at best, with the pop star simply pursing her lips with a stony look on her face and taking a sip of champagne. 

Koy later clarified that he had “no ill intent” when making the joke, adding that “the whole intention of that joke was to make fun of the NFL.” “What hurts the most is me just supporting Taylor, I support her, I love her work,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “The joke is about the NFL and how they keep using cutaways to [her]. And it’s an obvious reason why. I’m not saying anything that no one’s saying, and it’s obvious what that joke was. It’s about the NFL.” 

Another bombed joke from Koy had to do with one of Liu’s own projects, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, in which he played one of several Kens opposite Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling. 

“Barbie is [based] on a plastic doll with big boobies,” Koy said of the film, later earning criticism from those who thought the quip was sexist or reductive. Gerwig, however, had a more neutral take on the controversy. 

“Well, he’s not wrong,” she said in a recent interview. “She’s the first doll that was mass produced with breasts, so he was right on. And you know, I think that so much of the project of the movie was unlikely because it is about a plastic doll.”

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been cheering each other on for months on their respective turfs, but at the 2024 People’s Choice Awards, they’re both nominees. Kelce is nominated for athlete of the year, while Swift is nominated in five categories: female artist of the year, pop artist of the year, concert tour of the year, movie of the year and social celebrity of the year.
This year’s nominations underscore the degree to which women dominated pop culture in 2023. Seven of the eight nominees for pop artist of the year were women, with only Jung Kook keeping it from being a shutout. Likewise, seven of the eight nominees for social celebrity of the year were women, with Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson the lone male nominee.

In both song of the year and R&B artist of the year, women accounted for five of the eight nominees.

There are 45 categories this year representing movies, television, music and pop culture. That includes five new categories: male country artist, female country artist, male Latin artist, female Latin artist and concert tour (just in time for 2023 megatours by Swift, Beyoncé and more).

Country and Latin were the only music genres with separate categories for men and women. In pop, hip-hop and R&B, men and women compete against each other.

Actor and author Simu Liu will host this year’s show. Liu is nominated for a People’s Choice Award in the movie performance category for his role in the blockbuster Barbie. In 2021, he won action movie star for Marvel’s Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and was nominated in the male movie star category for the same role. Liu hosted the Juno Awards in 2022 and 2023 in his home country, Canada.

Kenan Thompson hosted the People’s Choice Awards in 2022 and 2023.

The 2024 People’s Choice Awards will air live on Sunday, Feb. 18, at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT on NBC, Peacock and E! from the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, Calif. Live From E!: People’s Choice Awards, a red-carpet pre-show, will kick off the night at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT on E!. Both shows are produced by Den of Thieves. Jesse Ignjatovic, Evan Prager and Barb Bialkowski will executive produce.

Voting for the 2024 People’s Choice Awards runs Thursday (Jan. 11) through Jan. 19 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Fans can vote online at VotePCA.com. Votes cast on Turbo Tuesday, Jan. 16, will count twice, equaling a maximum of two votes per day, per category. The eligibility window for all categories is the 2023 calendar year.
