I happened upon this video of Adam Lambert on this fine Sunday afternoon. He was interviewed after his amazing duo with Top 3 American Idol Season 3 Finalist, Angie Miller. The first impression I discerned while listening to and watching him speak was how absolutely grounded he appears to be while speaking about a variety […]

IGN TV:Obviously this is bittersweet, because this will be the end.Maggie Q: Yeah, this’ll be the last year.IGN: What are you thinking about going into these final episodes?Maggie Q: Actually, creatively, I’m really excited. Because in a final season, banging out six episodes… You know how big our episodes are. We’re going to make these even bigger, because there’s only six. So we want to go out movie-style, you know what I mean? Do six movies. You know where we ended it. This season, Season 4, it has to be fast-paced, right? She’s out there.IGN: She’s out there, and you don’t have Division or any of the old trappings. Is that exciting for you?Maggie Q: Yeah! She’s on the run again, she’s rogue again. But this time they know what she looks like. She’s being hunted. She’s not anonymous anymore. This is a total game changer like there’s never been. We don’t know how she’s getting out of this, so this is Nikita on the run. Like Run Lola Run… it’s gotta be intense. So six episodes -- if we did 13 it’d be harder. If we did a full season it’d be impossible to end with that bang. But my dream was four seasons, Eric. I wanted four. I didn’t want more than four. Six [episodes] hurt my heart a little, just because I’m going to miss my crew so much. I’m going to have to say goodbye to them in four months, which I didn’t expect to be so quick. But that’s it. Creatively, I’m totally fulfilled. But personally, my heart’s broken because I love my crew so much, and I don’t know when I’ll see them again.Read full interview at IGN

Thanks to Jason for the heads up and to Jade for the video.

We?ve known Doctor Who would be returning for a while, thanks to a 50th anniversary special episode the BBC has planned for November 23 of this year. Fans of the series already have that date close to heart, and on Saturday, the U.K. network tossed out some even greater news. Although the order has been expected, BBC officially announced Doctor Who will also be returning for an eighth season on the network.

While most of you suffered through graduation speeches from former deans and, ugh, SENATORS, University of Virginia students were treated to remarks from none other than Stephen Colbert. For over 17 minutes, The Colbert Report host discussed UVA’s high party school ranking in Playboy (“I only read Playboy for the rankings”), the university’s ousted then rehired president (“I want to thank president Teresa Sullivan. You are way better than that last president, Teresa Sullivan, she was terrible”), and self-obsessed millennials (“Your generation needs everything to be about you…and that’s very upsetting to us baby boomers because self-absorption is kind of our thing”). But Colbert saved his most inspiring material for the end: “I believe we have given you a gift, a particular form of independence,” he said, referring to the Steely Dan demographic, “because you do not owe the previous generation anything. Thanks to us, you owe it to the Chinese.” Haha, we’re doomed. Hear the whole thing below. The post Stephen Colbert Gave An Inspiring Graduation Speech To UVA Students On Playboy, The Chinese appeared first on UPROXX.

Kelly Rowland very close to signing on to The X Factor; Paulina Rubio in talks via Rickey.org Kelly Rowland is really close to returning to The X Factor. The “Dirty Laundry” singer is nearing a deal while Paulina Rubio is being considered for the fourth slot. The panel will be announced tomorrow. Fox’s TheX Factor is looking to have plenty of girl power next fall. The judges panel will likely consist of executive producer Simon Cowell and three female judges. One will be returning judge Demi Lovato, as the network previously announced. If all goes according to plan, another will be singer, dancer and Super Bowl halftime show-stopper Kelly Rowland. The Grammy-winning Destiny’s Child founding member has previously been floated as a potential judge in the press, but EW can exclusively report she’s firming up a deal to join the show. Rowland should feel quite comfortable at the judges table; she has extensive on-camera experience, from serving as a judge on the eighth season of the UK version of The X Factor to performing on Fox’s So You Think You Can Dance. We’re not certain who will secure the third judge spot, though we’re hearing Latin singer-actress Paulina Rubio is in talks. The deals will have to be completed soon — The X Factor starts production on season three on Tuesday. The new judges will replace season two panelists Britney Spears and L.A. Reid. What do you think of this panel? They definitely should have a gender balance. But this new panel would reflect going for a lower budget. The Voice • American Idol • The X Factor
