Summer Walker puts a price on love in the luxurious music video for her latest single “Spend It.” In the Lesly Lynch-directed video, the R&b singer plans an elaborate heist. Since she can’t get back the time she wasted on a relationship, she figures, she can at least replace it with diamonds and dollars.

“Spend it on me, l love when you to spend it on me/Throw it to me, take me up in Givenchy/Before my love couldn’t be bought/But now that’s all I want,...

Instead of touting itself as a female remake of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, which hasn't really worked for some of the redos in recent past, MGM has simply changed the title to The Hustle, hoping to avoid the fan outrage that plagued Ghostbusters 2016 and Ocean's 8. Today, we get the first trailer and poster, and obviously, the title itself is a bit of a hustle cause, yes, this is descriptively a direct remake, though told with a twist.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels was itself a remake, and also got a title change. Everything starts with the 1964 movie Bedtime Story, starring Marlon Brando and David Nevin.

And whoever is at the forefront of this deceptive tale, it still appears to be as funny as it ever was.

2017 appeared to be a banner year for Joanne the Scammer. The popular character, known for her appearances at awards shows and her melodramatic appearances on social media, appeared on the cover of a magazine, inked a TV deal, and earned recognition as one of Time's "most influential people on the internet."

Offscreen, however, the man who portrays Joanne had to endure some rough news in 2017, and after his recent disappearance from social media raised concerns among his fans, he decided to take to Instagram to open up. There, in a recent video, Joanne performer Branden Miller explained that his mother is dying of cancer, and he has put his signature character on hiatus in order to be with her.

In his post, Miller explained that his mother has been dealing with her terminal diagnosis "for a while." As a result, he has decided that comedy must take a back seat.
