Chris O’Donnell has signed with Gersh for representation.
The Hollywood film and TV actor currently stars as G. Callen in the CBS police procedural NCIS: Los Angeles, now in its 14th and final season.
Last year, O’Donnell and NCIS: LA cast member LL Cool J teamed to executive produce the reality dance competition series Come Dance With Me at CBS. The show features talented young dancers from across the country who invite one inspirational, and untrained, family member or other adult who has supported their dance dreams, to become their dance partner for a chance to strut their stuff for a grand prize.
In 2015, O’Donnell earned a star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame for his entertainment career. His TV credits include The Company and Grey’s Anatomy, and O’Donnell made his Broadway stage debut in Arthur Miller’s play The Man Who Had All the Luck, opposite Samantha Mathis.

When “Step Up” star Jenna Dewan was asked to recreate a famous “Saturday Night Fever” dance with Emmy-winning “Dancing With the Stars” regular Derek Hough for the special “Step Into…The Movies with Derek and Julianne Hough,” she couldn’t say yes fast enough.
“Nick Florez and Rj Durell, who are producing and directing, approached me and it was an immediate, ‘How can I say no to this?'” Dewan told TheWrap. “We’ve known each other for many, many years. They just know me and know what I love.”
In the dance scene, set to The Bee Gees’ “You Should Be Dancing,” Hough hip-swivels in a replica of John Travolta’s famous white suit, while Dewan is sultry in red as his partner, who was played by Karen Lynn Gorney in the 1977 film.

Puerto Rican singer Ozuna stepped out in a shiny silver jacket and moved through clouds of blue-tinted smoke that rose from the Latin Grammys stage during a performance that included his uptempo track “Del Mar.” He transitioned to “Señor Juez” as the background turned from a dim blue to rose red and Antony Santos took his place alongside him. Their performance was a dramatic one as they passionately sang their bachata track.

As we predicted, Taylor Swift won Album of the Year at the Grammys for “Folklore.” That was a landmark moment for the singer-songwriter and not just because it was a surprise album that shook up her radio-friendly pop formula, but because she did something only three other performers have ever done before. Check out the complete list of 2021 Grammy winners here.
This was Swift’s third victory for Album of the Year following wins for her country blockbuster “Fearless” (2010) and her pop crossover “1989” (2016). No other woman has won the category that many times, and only three male performers have done it: Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and Paul Simon.

The "DWTS" results are in and Andy Dick is going home.
Though the "DWTS" results weren't surprising, the elimination was certainly one of the saddest of Season 16. Andy, a surprising fan favorite, has been at the bottom of the leaderboard throughout the competition, but his determination and enthusiasm in every dance has kept him in the running.
"It's been the best," a choked-up Andy said when the "DWTS" results came in, as he stood next his first-time pro Sharna Burgess. "Carrie Ann I'm going to kill you for the 5. It's all your fault," he joked, adding, "The fact that we are here in Week 7 is amazing ... It's been a wonderful, wonderful ride."
After "Idol" alumna Kellie Pickler and Derek Hough brought in the highest score of the evening, they earned immunity, while the six remaining "DWTS" contestants had to dance-off against one another for a potential three-point addition to their judges score.

Michael Buble may well be the happiest guy in New York. He's thrilled about his latest CD, about becoming a dad and branching out on his own.
"I made it like a record," he tells Zap2it of his latest album, released Tuesday (Apr. 23). "I made an album. I wanted them to sound like pop songs."
"To Be Loved" a collection of 10 standards and four he wrote with others, is Buble's sixth studio album. Considering his last one was the second selling album of 2011 -- after Adele -- a new release from him is a big deal.
This one has him singing a duet on "Something Stupid" with Reese Witherspoon. He praises how Witherspoon handled her apology after her reaction to her husband's arrest for DUI earlier this week, and says she is "a goddess."
Buble, a very upbeat Canadian, is on a media tour in New York City. He hosted "The Today Show" Wednesday,...

-- Michael Buble, "To Be Loved" (Reprise Records)
Canadian crooner Michael Buble projects a strange dichotomy in his eighth studio album, "To Be Loved." It combines old and new, happy and blue, romance and more romance. His evident penchant for the golden standards, which he covers with aplomb, is what saves the record from sounding too modernly hollow. It's also the reason it sounds uneven, meandering from harried contemporary pop like "Close Your Eyes" to the smooth, seductive Dean Martin tune "Nevertheless (I'm in Love With You)."
The four originals on the 14-track album were all co-written by Buble, but apart from his joie de vivre and emotive voice, they mostly fail to capture the imagination. Not even the Bryan Adams collaboration on "After All," or Buble's deceivingly upbeat single, "It's a Beautiful Day," can save it from a big yawn chain.
Buble is at his best when reclaiming beloved classics as his own.

New York -- If the holidays still seem a long way off, you clearly haven't done much television channel surfing lately.
The Hallmark channel has already begun two months of wall-to-wall holiday programming. Lifetime has ramped up its seasonal selections with 10 new made-for-tv movies, the first one airing last weekend. ABC Family's annual "25 Days of Christmas" programming isn't enough, so they do a "Countdown to 25 Days of Christmas," starting Sunday.
This is in addition to all the old favorites, from Charlie Brown to Frosty the Snowman, that will fill broadcast network schedules during the next month. An already popular television genre is growing in power, judging by the 22 new movies Hallmark and Lifetime are rolling out between them, and a new Disney holiday musical.
"This is a strategy that developed naturally from demand," said Rob Sharenow, executive vice president of programming at the Lifetime networks. "It's really giving people what they want.

With only four weeks and eight episodes remaining in its not-so-fresh ninth season, American Idol is going to try something a little different next Tuesday: Harry Connick Jr. will be the first guest mentor in the show's history to arrange the songs and write the orchestrations for the remaining contestants as they tackle the Frank Sinatra songbook. And since the top 5 hopefuls are having control wrested from their hands anyway, I say let's do the honor of choosing their songs as well. The full list of 50 pre-approved Sinatra tracks is listed after the jump, and below is my dream set-list.

The "American Idol" contestants are being saddled with the songs of Ol' Blue Eyes for this coming week. What should they sing?
This is probably the hardest week for song choice so far. Shania Twain may be limited but at least her songs were written in the last 15 years.
Don't get us wrong -- love Sinatra. But his songs are from the 40s and 50s and are classics, so the Idols are stuck in a catch-22 of "make it your own, make it current" and "don't mess with an original." It's a very hard line to walk and the judges are really harping on it this season. But here are our choices for the Idols:
Crystal Bowersox, "One for My Baby"
Raise your hand if you vote for "Idol" and remember Bette Midler singing this to Johnny Carson. That's what we thought. Regardless, Crystal should glam it up even more...

Harry Connick, Jr will act as the celebrity mentor for American Idol hopefuls this week, as they attempt to out their own spin on some Frank Sinatra songs.
The New Orleans singer is well versed in the art of covering a Sinatra tune, having covered many in his albums and concerts to date.
This could be an awful wee for the five remaining contestants as these swing numbers are so well known and often iconic tunes and often singers give a boring but true rendition or they mix it up so much that they destroy the classic song.
We think that Big Mike can totally pull off one of Ol’ Blue Eyes’ songs but Casey James may not be so lucky and will it lead to frontrunner Crystal Bowersox having another bad week?
What Sinatra songs would you like to hear the Crystal Bowersox, Mike Lynche, Casey James, Aaron Kelly and Lee DeWyze sing?...
