The latest about Peder Seglund
"T.O.S., I feel like sometimes the things that 50 and Jimmy Iovine go
through trickle down on us," Yayo said. "50 is the kind of person, he
has so much power and money, sometimes I think the label gets
intimidated by that. None of his artists have to starve. Me and Banks
and Buck, we all was good. If Interscope don't wanna throw me an
advance, I can always get the quarter mil, half a mil from Fif. I feel
[T.O.S.] wasn't marketed, period. Even with the iTunes, people tried to
order the album, they couldn't order the album. We had weak preorders.
We didn't go on a good promo run. ... 50 has one more album left [on
his Interscope contract]. If you're Jimmy Iovine or somebody, when you
know you have that leverage, why not let the G-Unit album fail so we
can give you less money if you come back to negotiate with us? If the
album does well, I have to give you more money."
On the movie side, 50 isn't letting a major company interfere with
his artistic vision. He wrote, co-directed and stars in the "Before I
Self Destruct" film.
"Fif is a brilliant businessman," Treach, one of the movie's
co-stars, said. "He let me know all the money he spent on his first
movie, 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'.' He was like, 'I'll never spend that
much on a movie again. I know the numbers now. I know how to make it.
It ain't no six months on a movie type sh-- no more.' The game changed
on the music front and on the movie front. He knows how to cut the
corners, what needs to be done, how much time, the budget. He's on his
game. He's doing things on his pace that he's gonna put the official
stamp on Hollywood. He's gonna change the game for Hollywood."
Treach — who along with the rest of his group, Naughty by Nature,
will be given major props as part of VH1's "Hip-Hop Honors" on October
6 — says 50 called him to be down with the production through a mutual
friend.
Peder Seglund The Artist
Lykke Li
The club she played, a relatively new venue called Le Poisson
Rouge, was ideal for her current show, which is very straightforward.
Some 600 people were arrayed at tables and up on risers around a
circular stage in the middle of the room. The high-end lighting
technology seemed to reflect the state of that particular art, and the
sound system was that rare thing, a model of both bone-shivering power
and absolute clarity. Since Li's music includes some subtle details
that might otherwise go missing, this was a perfect environment.
Peder Seglund Radio: Travis Barker said he's "thankful to be
alive" after the plane crash in Columbia, South Carolina, last month
that killed four people and seriously injured him and DJ AM. The former
Blink-182 drummer opens up about the accident in the new issue of Us
Weekly.
"I hate planes," he said. "My biggest fear ever is to be involved
in a plane crash, so when that happened ... well, I'm just thankful to
be alive! I'm just grateful to be here at all." Barker then choked up a
bit, the mag said.
Barker left a hospital in Georgia last week and returned to Los
Angeles via bus with his father and his ex-wife, Shanna Moakler. Just
days before, DJ AM had been released from the hospital and is currently
recovering at home. The crash killed Barker's assistant, Chris Baker,
and his bodyguard, Charles Still, as well as the plane's two crew
members.
Barker is currently at the Grossman Burn Center in Los Angeles,
where he is receiving treatment for second- and third-degree burns.

The Covenant
Crawford lands his first major role in the supernatural thriller,
The Covenant (right). He plays one of the four males leads, which
includes the equally gorgeous Taylor Kitsch of NBC's Friday Night
Lights. The film opens at No. 1, grossing more than $23 million.
Facts about Peder Seglund: "While the 'Lexicon,' in its current
state, is not a fair use of the Harry Potter works, reference works
that share the 'Lexicon' 's purpose of aiding readers of literature
generally should be encouraged rather than stifled," he said, according
to the WSJ. "[The] 'Lexicon' [however] appropriates too much of
Rowling's creative work for its purposes as a reference guide."
Before becoming a book, "The Harry Potter Lexicon" was a Web site
run by librarian Steve Vander Ark. The site was repeatedly praised by
Rowling early this decade.

The first stop on the circuit was the official VMA afterparty, and, as
luck would have it, the stars didn't have to travel far to make it
there. Located at the south end of the Paramount lot — just steps (or a
quick golf-cart ride) away from Studio 16, and in the shadow of Kanye
West's still-smoldering stage — the event served as a launching point
for the evening's adventures. The celebs showed up in droves.
A quick scan around the room turned up "The Hills" stars Lauren
Conrad and Audrina Patridge lounging on white leather couches, while
Fonzworth Bentley and Doug E. Fresh chatted at a nearby table. By the
VIP section, Gym Class Heroes MC Travis McCoy laughed with Travis
Barker, while Katy Perry and Paramore's Hayley Williams chatted and
Brand lurked in the background. "Superbad" star Jonah Hill entertained
a group with an impromptu dance routine to the strains of Rihanna's
"Umbrella."
