Oh Well. Whatever. Nevermind. Nirvana's Nevermind turns 20 this year. (Is that possible?!? I remember when it came out!) Surviving Nirvana members Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic, as well as Nevermind (and Wasting Light) producer Butch Vig, recently spoke with AP about the iconic and influential album. A commemorative 20th Anniversary reissue will be released on Tuesday, September 27. Fans will have their choice of which super special reissue they want, whether just a remastered copy of the record, or a super deluxe edition featuring boombox recordings and alternate mixes.
Rory O'Malley Talks Mormon and 8 As a co-founder of Broadway Impact, an organization that rallies the Broadway and theatre community at-large in support of marriage equality, The Book of Mormon's Rory O'Malley has been busy getting ready for a starry benefit reading of 8, a new play written by Oscar winner Dustin Lance Black. 8 chronicles the Proposition 8 trial that overturned the California anti-equality ballot measure. The reading took place on Monday, and O'Malley spoke to Broadway.com about what it's like to work as an activist and also make people howl with laughter eight times a week.

In contrast, this list includes only two actors (one of them is Leo); the rest are writers, directors and producers, plus one athlete. The multi-hyphenate Tyler Perry tops the list on which Steven Spielberg, Elton John and Howard Stern also appear.
J. Edgar Speaking of Leo, check out the trailer for his latest film, J. Edgar.
