According to another new Google Trends list released by the search engine company, video games have become quite the search query on YouTube. Google released its top search terms for YouTube videos of 2014, and two of the top 9 subjects were video games, with Minecraft coming in second overall. "Music" was the winner this year, but what about 2015? We expect gaming to be quite the popular genre in the New Year. Read More »
It looks like Seinfeld-a-holics may be getting into the medical profession, because it’s being reported that a class at New Jersey’s Rutgers University allows medical students to watch the famed NBC comedy from Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David in order to learn about psychiatry. Who knew that for nine brilliant season not only were we getting some of the best comedy that television has ever offered, but we were also getting a Ph. D in psychiatry. Wonder if this will come up on next season of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee? Since the famed comic just ended his Season 5 (with guest star Jimmy Fallon) it seems we’ll have to wait and see!

It looks like New Year’s Eve wasn’t all celebrations, confetti and ball dropping. While co-hosting the New York City New Year’s ceremony with comedian Kathy Griffin, CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 host took some time to drop something of his own – like a serious slam on former CNN Piers Morgan Live host, Piers Morgan.

Some celebrities love Twitter. There’s no getting around it. But some? Well, they just don’t … especially comedians. So it seems, at least.

If you’ve ever been to a comedy show then you’re well aware of the fact that a comedian normally has an opening act. But if you’re comedian Jim Gaffigan? Well, his approach is a little different these days. The famed stand up decided to change things up a bit during a show at the Pabst Theater in Milwaukee, WI. How so? The comic had the “Gaffigan Five” introduce him. You know, his five children. And no, it could not be cuter. The comedian is currently on tour promoting his new book Food: A Love Story, and after seeing the below video it’s pretty safe to say food isn’t the only thing he loves… Read More »

Chris Rock and wife Malaak Compton-Rock are divorcing after being married for 19 years. Rock's new movie 'Top Five' is out now, and in all the press the superstar comedian did in support of the movie — which he wrote, directed and stars in — he never brought up any troubles his marriage might have been going through. The couple — who married in 1996 — have two daughters, Lola, 12, and Zahra, 10. Gossip sites are also reporting that Rock is now dating his co-star Rosario Dawson. Read More »

What makes a comedian a comedian? Many would merely cut it down to something as vague as “someone who tells jokes” – but if you ask Jerry Seinfeld and a number of his funny friends, it appears there’s so much more involved. The veteran comic recently put together a small group of clips to release his newest Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee Single Shot “What Is A Comedian?” to try and answer the question. And to help him along, the comic invited in clips from his episodes with Top Five writer-director-star Chris Rock, former (and some may say fired) Tonight Show host Jay Leno, Parks and Rec star Aziz Ansari and a number of others.

It’s no secret that Hollywood’s finest are some of the most overpaid people on the face of the planet. Honestly, $10 million (and that’s being conservative) to act like someone else for half a year? Come on. Of course, we’re not saying it’s not a hard industry – perhaps one of the hardest, especially to make it in. But we’re just saying, teachers are pretty good people, too. Anyway, it’s now being said that Adam Sandler, Johnny Depp and Ben Stiller are among the highest overpaid actors in the business of show. And since Stiller just dropped his Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb (the third installment), it seems he’s raking in even more of that overcompensation. Read More »
Comedian Kevin Hart dodged questions regarding Sony's hacked emails about him. In an interview with TMZ, the "Laugh At My Pain" funny man said, "Man, I don't answer those questions, I'm politically correct. Everything about me is always right, you ever notice that?" Read More »
Happy Festivus, people! As the holiday made popular by the folks over at Seinfeld and Frank Costanza (played hilariously by Jerry Stiller), Festivus has become an uber popular holiday over the years! Of course, not the whole crowding-around-a-pole thing, but at least the airing of the grievances. And this year, it looks like Jerry Seinfeld and Senator Rand Paul are celebrating the faux holiday with a bang, with the latter having some really direct things to say on Twitter to Washington. And it’s just in time because Seinfeld just finished up Season 5 of his web series Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, which housed Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon. Read More »
