Ryan Seacrest predicted that half of Times Square would be fans of South Korean boyband Bts, and judging by the volume of screams heard throughout ABC’s broadcast of “Dick Clark’s Rockin’ Eve with Ryan Seacrest,” the Bts Army was in full force.

Loyal fans came early to cheer on the group — comprised of members Jimin, Jin, Rm, Suga, Jungkook, J Hope, and V — and patiently waited with handmade signs and light sticks to cheer the occasion. All day, the group was prominently displayed on billboards in Times Square as diehards secured spots for the group’s early afternoon rehearsal.

Just before the band took to the stage in front of an estimated one million people, the side of the ABC area was cordoned off, paving a path for the group to make its way safely through the crowd.

So what does a young superstar spend his time thinking about? Classic rock, mostly, along with the occasional movie or TV show. Harry Styles has always been a voracious scholar of pop history — the kind of guy who obsesses over John and Yoko album covers and Fleetwood Mac deep cuts. “We’re all just fans,” he says. “I’m just a music fan who happens to make some.” These are just a few of Harry’s favorite things — some influences, some inspirations, some heroes.

Listen along to our Harry Styles playlist here.

Harry Styles appears on Rolling Stone‘s September cover. Writer Rob Sheffield traversed Los Angeles and London with the former One Direction member for an in-depth interview about sex, drugs and rock & roll. Here’s a few highlights from the story that shouldn’t be missed.

Just when we all thought 2016 threw some of the craziest possible curve-balls, 2017 came along looking to show us what real dramas, scandals and all-around madness truly look like.

From Hollywood royalty having adorable babies to actual royalty getting engaged, the year wasn't without its heartwarming moments – but make no mistake about it, we got more than our fair share of heartache, tragedy and stomach-churning scandal to balance it out.

So let's take a look back at the past 12 months, and see some of the year's greatest highlights and darkest moments – as well as some those pop-culture zeitgeists that captured our attention, long enough for us to temporarily forget our woes.

[Note: We basically left out political stories from the list entirely, both out of a concern for brevity, and our own sanity.]

1. Two Sets of Twins!

Diwali – This is that season of the year when biggest of the films are most awaited by audiences across the country. The phenomenon has continued to build strong for over a couple of decades now, so much so that every film that arrives in the festive season is being looked at as the next Blockbuster in the offering.

Ajay Devgn has been one of the superstars to have lapped on to this phenomenon well for a decade now. What started back in 2008 [Golmaal Returns] is pretty much leading to something even bigger in 2017 [Golmaal Again], what with fourth in the Golmaal franchise all set for a major success.

Ever since the release of the second installment of Golmaal, Ajay Devgn has aimed to book the Diwali slot on a regular note. All The Best, Golmaal 3, Son of Sardaar and Shivaay have arrived one after another and each of these films has earned good moolah,...

Music is a vital part of Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End. We take a look in more detail right here...

This feature contains major spoilers for Shaun Of The Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World's End.

Edgar Wright's films are often likened to musicals, with his precise use of editing and shot choices giving us some of the most stylish comedy films of the century. His latest, Baby Driver, isn't a comedy per se, but “a musical with car chases”, or “An American In Paris on wheels and crack smoke”, as an elated Guillermo del Toro described it on Twitter.

Centring around Ansel Elgort's Baby, a getaway driver who does his best work while listening to a personal soundtrack, it seems like the film Wright was born to make. He had the idea for the film after making his first feature,...

Kylie Jenner made sure to stand out from the crowd at the Coachella festival with her fluorescent neon hairstyle.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians reality star and Lip Kit entrepreneur debuted her day 1 ‘do on Instagram Friday, showcasing her “highlighter hair” for all to envy. If you thought she’s tried every hair color under the sun, Jenner, 19, chose her most adventurous color yet with this luminescent sheen.

Also if you got major tennis ball vibes from her neon hair color, you were on the same wave length as Jenner. She captioned one of her Instagram posts with a simple tennis ball emoji.

Nicole Kidman just revealed she was once engaged to rocker Lenny Kravitz, telling The Edit that she was quietly betrothed to the father of her Big Little Lies costar Zoë Kravitz years ago. The actress and musician dated in 2003, and People covered their under-the-radar romance in this vintage cover story below:

One thing you can say for Nicole Kidman: The woman knows how to keep a secret. Throughout the summer, the Oscar-winning actress dismissed inquiries of a romance with rocker Lenny Kravitz with “we’re-just-friends” denials. Yes, she was renting his apartment, but please don’t get the wrong idea.

For celebrities — much like Marlo from The Wire — their name is their name. It’s their livelihood, it’s their first point of recognition for their fans, and in some cases, it’s roughly 90 percent of their earthly value. So you can understand why they might be pretty protective of it.

With the dust still settling from the recent Kylie Minogue vs. Kylie Jenner courtroom battle, we decided to take a look back at some other celebrity lawsuits involving either their name or, in some cases, a certain phrase very near and dear to their heart.

If you want to stay competitive in the dating game, you have to bring the bling … or car, or luxury handbag — really anything that costs more than most Americans make in a year.

Recently, Drake took his relationship with Jennifer Lopez to the next level, gifting her a very special piece of jewelry: a Tiffany Victoria necklace valued at $100,000. Lopez wore the 17-in. diamond strand— which features more than 15 carats worth of round-, pear- and marquise-shaped diamonds set in platinum — on New Year’s Eve, as seen in the photo above.

Some celebrities are constantly jetting off to tropical locales and serving up amazing swimwear inspo all-year-round. So while it’s the dead of winter for most of the country, we’ve been able to predict a huge swimwear trend brewing for 2017 — bikinis with built-in chokers. It was the accessory of 2016 and according to Kylie Jenner’s latest bikini craze, it’s not going anywhere anytime soon.

Kylie has been having a sexy swim streak during her Mexican vacation wearing four different swimsuit styles in 48 hours and one of those included a black two-piece with exposed white stitching and a matching choker.

I will not use the words “rigged” and “election” in the same sentence this week — Gack! Just Did! — but nevertheless, I suspect history won’t look too kindly on The Voice‘s “historic” decision to use real-time voting (and same-night eliminations) for Season 11 Top 20 performance night.

The makers of the upcoming short film ‘Raakh’ have finally revealed the first look of the film. Written and Directed by Milap Zaveri ‘Raakh’ is a thriller starring Richa Chadha, Vir Das and Shaad Randhawa. The film is presented by Officer’s Choice Blue and is set to release online on 7th November, 2016!

The motion poster justifies the title Raakh: Ashes to Ashes, as we see the actor’s faces being revealed from the smoke of a burning match stick. The first look of the short film has been launched on the auspicious day of Dusshera to emphasise that ‘Evil will Burn’.

What catches our attention is the song playing in the background, in the melodious voice of singing maestro Sonu Nigam. This is the first time that the singer has lent his voice for a short film and from what we hear it seems to be an emotionally stirring song.

In Cell by Cell, I look deeply into the panels of an issue, appreciating and analyzing the story and artistic composition.

Of note on this two-page spread is the color transition repeated in the background of most panels. Blue on top, pink on bottom. The gradient is tempered with a gray to make it more subtle, but the connotative effect reinforces the hegemonic power divide that is the backbone of the series. Blue, the color of boys, on top of pink, the color of girls. Men are in power, even in the background color.

Kylie Jenner's back to blue! Blue hair, that is, only this vibrant, aquamarine hue might just be her boldest yet. The 17-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star debuted her lightened locks Thursday at the launch of her Kylie Hair Kouture extension line at Bellami Beauty Bar in West Hollywood. Naturally, she Instagrammed a few snaps of her blue 'do, which she paired with a plunging white jumpsuit. But wait, are any of you dolls experiencing déjà vu with this hue? If the answer is yes, it's for good reason… Back in April, Kylie temporarily tried out these tresses. She Instagrammed a photo then, too, but she was back to her brunette self in no time.

Besides the major clash of Salman Khan's Sultan Vs Shah Rukh Khan's Raees (in Eid) that has been hitting the headlines, 2016 will witness yet another box-office war as two of the much-touted projects are set to release on the same day.

Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra's Mirzya will clash with Anthony D'souza's Azhar, a biopic on former Indian cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin. Both the films have been blocked for May 13, 2016.

Both the projects are significant and look promising. While Mirzya marks the debut of Anil Kapoor's son Harshvardhan Kapoor and Saiyami Kher (which is held as the biggest launch pad), actor Emraan Hashmi is doing a biopic for the first time. Mirzya is director Rakeysh Mehra's first love story and his next after the super successful film, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. It is a contemporary love story set in Rajasthan.

After a gap of approximately one year, Lara Dutta Bhupati is all set to make her comeback in Bollywood.

She recently took to a micro-blogging site to post, "Some exciting news (for me) coming your way soon!"

Lara Dutta then wrote, "U've seen me go glamourous in Blue, desi in Billoo Barber, and now I take on a never seen before avatar in Singh is Bliing!!"

Ashwini Yardi, producer of Singh Is Bling, also greeted Lara with a warm welcome by posting, "Please welcome the super gorgeous and super talented @LaraDutta to #SinghIsBliing @akshaykumar @PDdancing @iamAmyJackson @GrazingGoatPix"

We wonder if Singh Is Bling was the reason behind her excitement?

But Singh Is Bling isn't the only movie that has welcomed Lara. Some time back she announced about working on Katrina Kaif- Aditya Roy Kapur- Rekha starrer Fitoor on the micro-blogging site.

Hindi films are known for their romance and it is one of the reasons so many people fall in love with the heroes, the heroines and the films! We asked our writers to tell us what moments in Bollywood define love or romance to them, be it a song, a line, a look, or anything that makes you sigh thinking that is Love! So for Valentine’s Day we present what we think is Romance Bollyishstyle!

The One with the Tune and the Recording

We could not pick just one scene from the great Dil Toh Pagal Hai starring Shah Rukh Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Karishma Kapoor and Akshay Kumar. However, the two that stand out for our writers are:

That moment when Madhuri and Shah Rukh are in adjoining changing rooms in a clothing store, and Madhuri hears him whistle a tune. She later hears it again and knows it was meant to be!

Sunny Leone has certainly staked her claim in Bollywood. After her much talked about debut in Jism 2, the porn star turned actress has been on a signing spree. While on one hand she is currently working on Tina & Lolo and Mastizaade, we hear that Sunny Leone has signed yet another film. News is that Sunny Leone will soon be seen romancing Rana Daggubati in a film titled One Night Stand, that will be directed by debutante Jasmine D'Souza, who incidentally is the wife of Blue and Boss director Anthony D'Souza. Besides Sunny and Rana, it is learnt that One Night Stand will also feature one more known actress. While that is said to be an intense drama will revolve around Sunny playing a girl next door whose life goes into a spin after meeting Rana's character. Penned by Bhavani Iyer, the film is expected to go on floors in...

After being the cinematographer for Bollywood biggies like Blue, English Vinglish, Boss, Lekar Hum Deewana Dil and upcoming film Tevar – Laxman Utekar has added another feather to his cap as he turns director for Marathi film, Tapaal.

Talking about his journey of becoming a director, he says, “I used to get a lot of offers to shoot Marathi films, but I didn’t want to shoot them. I always felt that if I shoot a Marathi film, it will also be directed by me. I didn’t want to shoot for somebody else. Because I was already shooting for people in Hindi films.”

He further adds, “After completing Mangesh Hadawale’s Dekh Indian Circus, I narrated a thought to him about the culture and people of my own village. I asked him whether he could weave a story for me and he did that beautifully. The film is the result of our experiences.

30. Conspirators of Pleasure (1996)

Directed by: Jan Švankmajer

We’ve already seen two films from Jan Švankmajeron the list, but this elaborate movie about a number of separate, but connected people takes the cake. Conspirators of Pleasure follows six people, each with their own incredibly unsettling fetish. A letter carrier ingests dough balls every night before bed. A clerk is obsessed with a new anchor and creates a machine that pleasure him while he watches her. That anchorwoman has an odd obsession with live carp. One customer of the clerk’s practice paper mâché voodoo with a chicken costume and a doll resembling his neighbor. The neighbor has a doll of him that she brutalizes. Finally, the anchormwoman’s husband rubs homemade contraptions to rub all over his body. Conspirators could simply be a character study that, while still strange, would not be nearly as creepy. Švankmajer’s known for his animation and puppetry,...

The second week of Jhalak Dikhala Jaa started off with a bang as Madhuri Dixit entered with a new international judge Maksim Chmerkovskiy from the Us dance reality show Dancing with the Stars. Maksim won this past season of the popular television show partnering Us Olympic Ice Dancing Gold Medalist Meryl Davis. This is the first time that Jhalak has had an international judge on the judging panel.

His first step? He danced with Madhuri to the song Chamak Challo from Ra One in Salsa style. It truly was a sizzling performance!

As always, the second week of the show, starts of the elimination process and this would be taking place on the Sunday episode.

First up to perform were Mouni & Punit Thakar who were safe from the eliminations. They danced on the song ‘Lahu Muh Lag Gaya’ from Ram Leela and their dance style was Rumba & Cuban Bolero – International Dance Form.

Commonly known as a lieu that breeds new filmmaking talents, Caitlin Coder, Jordan M. Smith, Nicholas Bell and I had the pleasure of uncovering/discovering a new batch of filmmaker talents (here is last year’s list). Here are our Top 20 New Voices countdown:

#20. Tessa Louise-Salome (Mr. Leos Carax)

Described as a work in progress, documentarian Tessa Louise-Salome continues her fascination with Leos Carax in this debut. A look at the mysterious and alluring director, we are guided through his scant but magnificent filmography with snippets and clips, while she interviews several cast members of his works, including Denis Lavant and Kylie Minogue, as well as Harmony Korine, who had cast Carax in his 2007 film, Mister Lonely. While we never quite get to learn anything more about the man known as Leos Carax, it’s a welcome substitute for the aficionados and fans that wish he would work more frequently.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and the whole of America is gearing up to celebrate one of their most cherished celebrations.

At the intersection between Bollywood and Hollywood stands Akshay Kumar, an A-list Indian star and an unofficial global ambassador for Indian cinema. Akshay has been associated with the Us in a number of ways and not just through his associations with Western artists such as Brandon Routh and Sylvester Stallone in Kambakth Ishq, Kylie Minogue in Blue and American musicians such as Ludacris and Snoop Dogg.

Akshay has expressed admiration not just for American talent but also American traditions. Hence, on the joyous occasion of Thanksgiving, Akshay extended his warm wishes to Americans across the world: saying:

Mumbai, Oct 22: "Blue" director Anthony D'Souza would have gone into oblivion had it not been for Akshay Kumar's support. Now he marvels at the response to his new film "Boss", and he is planning an aerial adventure drama.

"It's a pet subject. It's a project close to my heart. And I want to make it the way I do. I am happy that 'Boss' has been accepted. More than myself, I am glad for my wife who has gone through three years of uncertainty. And my eight-year-old son loves 'Boss'," said Anthony.

Talking about the response to "Boss", Anthony said: "How do I feel? No, I don't feel vindicated, just happy and relieved that my producers will make money. My film opened very well at the single theatres. It is an out-and-out masala.

An attempt at a sleek action thriller didn’t go down well with the audience so Blue director Anthony D’Souza tries his hand the desi-way. His second release once again stars Akshay Kumar however, Boss is no stylish action thriller with foreign locales but rather is a tale of a home-grown hero.

It’s expected that when you walk into Boss you won’t be getting a dose of thought provoking cinema, but rather a 3-hour entertaining ride that should have laughs, cries, dances, punches and of course, a happy ending. This Anthony D’ Souza directorial tries its best to deliver exactly that. Boss is family drama at the heart of it all. The film is an adaptation of Vyshakh’s Malayalam film Pokkiri Raja that had originally starred Manmooty, Prithviraj and Shriya Saran. It’s the story of Surya (Akshay Kumar), a renowned don who was heartlessly kicked...

Akshay Kumar hasn’t been having the best of times lately. His last 3 films have struggled to cross the 70 crore mark due to unfavorable response from the audiences and critics alike, although Special 26 did well considering it’s genre. Now he is back with his ‘Blue’ director Anthony D’Souza and this time they have chosen to take the remake route. Boss is an official remake of the 2010 Malayalam Hit Pokkiri Raja. Read More...

Association of director Anthony D'Souza and Akshay Kumar goes more than half a decade back. That was the time when he had started collaborating with him on Blue. The film released in 2009 and though in the time period gone by, Tony (as he is fondly called) could have possibly stuffed in a couple of years, he chose to wait.

Starring Akshay Kumar, Mithun Chakraborty and Aditi Rao Hydari, among others, the first schedule was canned in Delhi last year.

"We have finished the first schedule and now we are gearing up for the second schedule that will start rolling from February. Many portions of the second schedule will be shot in India and we are locking some other locations as well," D'Souza told Ians.

Will he present Akshay in an action avatar again?

"I can't reveal much about the film.

Akshay Kumar is back with Khiladi 786, his eighth Khiladi (The Player) movie over the past 20-odd years. It's been a dozen years since he released a film with that title, but he has far from abandoned the character he perfected in the '90s. The last few years have seen Kumar playing the same over-the-top hero character in masala film after masala film to typically very good box office results. In fact, whenever Kumar tries to stray from the path he built for himself with offbeat films like 8x10 Tasveer, Blue, or Joker, audiences tend to stay away in droves. In a way, even though this film doesn't have an original bone in its body, I'm kind of glad that he has accepted his role...

Mumbai, Nov 29: Actress Aditi Rao Hydari, who was last seen in "London, Paris, New York" with Ali Zafar, has now been roped in to be part of Akshay Kumar−starrer "Boss".

The film's director Anthony D'Souza told Ians: "Aditi is finalised for the film, but we can't talk exactly which character she will be playing in the film. You will have to wait till Dec 15 for an official announcement."

D'Souza, who helmed "Blue" in 2009, says the first schedule of the film has already been shot in Delhi.

"We have just finished the first schedule for the film in Delhi with Akshay Kumar. It was a very small schedule. We are planning.

Akshay Kumar surely believes in working at breakneck speed. The actor has already begun work on his new film Boss which is directed by Anthony D'souza (who earlier made Blue). The Khiladi Kumar tweeted, "Shooting #LikeABoss in good ol' Dilli for the first schedule of #Boss . The place, my hometown itself makes it a special film for me. Do send in your good wishes, need your love and luck always :)" The film is an action film and scheduled to release next year.
