Daryl Hall (of Hall & Oates) and Wife Amanda To Divorce...
Daryl Hall and wife Amanda Hall will reportedly divorce.

Amanda Hall, the daughter of late British zoo owner and gambling tycoon John Aspinall, filed to end her six-year marriage to the 68-year-old singer in May. Word of the documents broke this week, and TMZ reports the couple had a prenup.

Hall and his wife married in 2009, and were living with Amanda Hall's two sons, March and Orson, from a previous relationship. The singer was previously wed to Bryna Lublin from 1969 to 1972, and was involved with Sara Allen for over 30 years.

Hall is best known as the co-founder and singer of musical duo Hall & Oates. He and John Oates came to fame in the 1970s, and last released the live album Live at the Troubadour in 2008. The singer currently hosts the web series Live from Daryl's House.

Wayne Brady To Star in Broadway's 'Kinky Boots'...
Entertainer Wayne Brady has confirmed he is taking over the role of British drag queen Lola from Tony Award-winner Billy Porter in the Broadway musical Kinky Boots this fall.

"I'm going to do my best to take care of Lola for you baby! You know that no one does it like you do Billy!" Brady tweeted Thursday.

"YASSS! Weeerk! He is my friend AND he is ridiculously talented. The legacy lives on! Congrats," Porter replied on Twitter. "She is in good hands boo! Rock dem damn boots!! XO"

The Cyndi Lauper-Harvey Fierstein stage musical is based on the 2005 film of the same name, which was inspired by true events. The show won the Best Musical Tony in 2013. It is about a man who attempts to save his family's shoe factory by teaming up with a cabaret performer and creating a line of sexy footwear for drag queens.


George R.R. Martin: Bittersweet Ending For 'Game of Thrones'...
An ending for HBO's Game of Thrones may have already been decided, but author George R.R. Martin only knows that he intends to write a bittersweet ending for the book series A Song of Ice and Fire.

During an interview with the Observer, Martin noted he isn't certain how he will end the series but with some inspiration from The Lord of the Rings, he has something in mind.

"I haven't written the ending yet," he said. "I've said before that the tone of the ending that I'm going for is bittersweet. I mean, it's no secret that Tolkien has been a huge influence on me, and I love the way he ended Lord of the Rings. It ends with a victory, but it's a bittersweet victory... All I can say is that's the kind of tone I will be aiming for. Whether I achieve it or not, that will be up to people like you and my readers to judge."

Perhaps the type of ending Martin is thinking of is different from the rest of the series which has consistently killed off its main characters and fan favorites.

Game of Thrones showrunners David Benioff and D.B Weiss have also spoken to the the creator about the ending are are willing to push ahead with the show regardless of how long it takes for Martin to publish the two final books in the series.

"We've had a lot of conversations with George, and he makes a lot of stuff up as he's writing it, Benioff told Variety in April. "Even while we talk to him about the ending, it doesn't mean that ending that he has currently conceived is going to be the ending when he eventually writes it."

What artist saw a petition made up asking President Obama to force him to release his new album gained tens of thousands of signatures before being shut down?

It's Kanye West... Impatient fans of the 38-year-old rapper created an official White House petition on the We the People website imploring Obama to order West to release his album SWISH this month.

"Kanye West has kept us thirsty for too long," the petition read. "We haven't gotten any new singles in new months. The President should order Ye to drop the album on the date August 21st, as his producer Mike Dean has been teasing people about."

The We the People site requires the president's administration to respond to petitions that reach over 100,000 signatures in 30 days. The plea for SWISH was taken down because it reportedly violated the terms of participation listed in the moderation policy.

West released the single "All Day" in March, which will appear with "Wolves" on his forthcoming seventh studio album. Dean indeed discussed the record on Montreality this week, but said only that the album will be released soon.
