VIDEO: Michael Johns and Carly Smithson Sing U2 | The Great American Idol Blog | 5/7/2008
The daytime talk divas are really going all out this week, eh? On yesterday's Ellen, which was filmed in Chicago, former Idol contestants Michael Johns and Carly Smithson gave an exclusive performance, singing a duet version of the U2 classic "One." This was much more fun than the 'repeat performances' we get during their press tour, and it's safe to say Michael Johns, in particular, would have made Bono proud with this one. — Gina DiNunno read more

In the latest installment of the Batman franchise, Christian Bale is back as the Caped Crusader. And as for the bad guy? The new Joker is played by none other than heartthrob Heath Ledger (who does the laugh so well it’s just plain scary).
