Matt LeBlanc Against ‘Friends’ Reunion or Movie
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, NBC, Gossip, Rumors,
Matt LeBlanc is against a Friends reunion.
The actor - whose most notable television role to date is as Joey Tribbiani on the hit sitcom - revealed that he wouldn't support the cast getting back together or agree to a movie adaptation of the show. Matt admitted that he hadn't heard of any plans to record more scenes and suggested that it would be wrong to try to recreate the series on the big screen.
"Yeah, that probably won't happen. There's no plans for anything like that. Everyone seems to be talking about that these days, but nope, no irons in the fire there," he said.
When asked whether he thought David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow and Courteney Cox collaborating again was a "bad idea," he added, "Personally I do. I think that show was all about a finite amount of time in six people's lives. Once they have moved on from that phase, that family unit has broken down a little bit. I'm sure they'd keep in touch a bit, but it wouldn't be the same."

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Comedy, Daytime, Prime Time, NBC, 30 Rock, Gossip, News,
Alec Baldwin has hinted he is leaving 30 Rock.
The 54-year-old actor - who plays television executive Jack Donaghy in the NBC comedy - has hit out at the network after The Today Show sent a news crew to his house following the arrest of a French-Canadian woman on charges of stalking him and said he was leaving the network "just in time."
"Outside my apt today, along side the other stalkers from the tabloid press, a crew that identified themselves as being with the Today Show. The television crew camped outside my apt said they were with the Today Show. #howthemightyhavefallen. I haven't appeared on the Today Show in many years. But did they have to camp outside my apt? A story about stalking sure brings out the stalkers in the media. But, the Today Show? No one from NBC contacted me until the Today Show arrived at my apt. I think I'm leaving NBC just in time (sic)," he wrote on his Twitter.

Adam Levine says TV fame is more "intense" than the notoriety he achieved with Maroon 5.
The "Moves Like Jagger" singer admits he wasn't prepared for all the extra attention he has received since becoming a coach on The Voice.
"This has been very intense. I wasn't really expecting it. I was very used to what had been happening with me and the band for many years, so it takes some adjustments and I'm getting used to it. Things like being surrounded by people asking questions like this are a little bit new for me. But it doesn't really bother me very much and I stay relatively private most of the time so it's all good," he said when asked about his increased fame since the pop star search TV show started.
One thing that has definitely changed for Adam since he appeared on The Voice is that people now pay more attention to what he has to say. The 33-year-old musician - who released his first album with Maroon 5 in 2002 - admits he does sometimes worry about his words coming back to haunt him:

Nick Jonas wants to appear on Glee. The Jonas Brothers star - who recently made a cameo appearance in NBC's Smash - would love producers on the musical drama series to invite him to take on a guest role.
"I definitely would consider it. I feel like Smash is sort of my statement in that [TV] world, and I really enjoyed that experience. And if there was a Glee opportunity, I would be really open to it. There hasn't been yet, and that's cool. So it's all a matter if they wanted to have me. I'd be totally open to it," he said when asked if he wanted to appear on the show.
Nick has been appearing in Broadway musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying and is enjoying his the stint in the show, but admits things haven't always run smoothly: "There have been some funny moments. In my first week, I was still getting comfortable, obviously. On the last show of the week, I completely lost my place in the middle of one of my big lines and, luckily, a castmate helped me out but I completely lost it.''

So yeah, I think every day is another victory. The truth is, I should be angry, resentful and disillusioned about relationships. But I'm not."

Jonah Hill was put in his place by Tom Hanks during Saturday Night Live over the weekend. The Moneyball actor hosted the NBC show on Saturday, and his monologue started with him talking about how proud he was to have been nominated for an Academy Award last month, despite losing out to silent film The Artist.
"It's been a great year for me. I was in a film I am extremely proud of. Even though The Artist won best picture, I still think Moneyball was one of this year's best talkies," he said.
He then went to a pre-taped routine about his week behind the scenes, which shows him telling the SNL cast to follow his lead because he's an "Oscar nominee."

Adam Levine Wants Kanye on The Voice
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, NBC, Rumors,
Adam Levine would love to see Kanye West guest star on The Voice.
The Maroon 5 singer and mentor on the reality show thinks the outspoken rapper - famed for interrupting award shows to give his opinions - would be a great person to appear alongside the panel, although he's not sure if network NBC would be so keen.
Speaking on Anderson, he said he'd pick Kanye "just because he's such a firecracker. I'm sure that terrifies NBC, but that would be fun. I love Kanye, I love what he does."
Adam - who judges the show alongside Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green and Blake Shelton - also addressed rumors the mentors don't get on, saying their arguments are just for the camera: "It's fine. Everyone's so funny. They take one little thing. We bicker, like brother and sister kind of thing, but it's all in good fun. No one's carrying it with them anywhere other than the stage."
