An apology is a good start, but it might portend a bad finish ... for Democrats. Over the weekend, Jack Black and Kyle Gass drew a deluge of condemnation over Gass' quip on stage. Just hours after the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, their Tenacious D act took the stage in Sydney, Australia. The show included a birthday celebration for Gass, during which he wished, "Don't miss Trump next time." After Australian politicians began demanding their deportation, Black announced that the entire world tour would be canceled, and that his partnership with Gass would be suspended indefinitely. But that has...

When Black then asked Gass to make a wish, Gass responded: “Don’t miss Trump next time.” “I was blindsided by what was said at the show on Sunday,” Black wrote in a follow-up statement. “I would never condone hate speech or encourage political violence...

Jack Black’s band Tenacious D has cancelled its upcoming gig after United Australia Senator Ralph Babet demanded the band be deported from Australia over an "evil" joke band member Kyle Gass made about the assassination attempt on former president Donald Trump.

Kung Fu Panda star Jack Black’s band Tenacious D mocked Donald Trump just one day after the former president was struck by but survived an assassin’s bullet, with a band member shouting “don’t miss Trump next time” during a performance on Sunday. Tenacious D was performing in Sydney, Australia, when the tasteless comment was made from the stage, according to video from Sunday’s concert. It remains unclear which band member made the remark, though some reports identified the speaker as bandmember Kyle Gass. Expressing a wish for the death of a U.S. president is a federal crime.

There will be no Ice in Hell. Entertainer Ice Cube left the cast of pending Sony comedy “Oh Hell No” — and walked away from a $9 million payday — after refusing the COVID-19 vaccine shot, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Wednesday we were stunned to hear a Hillary Clinton campaign spokesperson casually say, “in the next three weeks we expect the polls to tighten significantly.” This begs the question: "Why would a Clinton spokesperson say the polls would “tighten” let alone say “the polls [would] tighten significantly?” Why would this be? Even Natie Silver knows the polls we see are fake and built on fake turnout models ; that’s why. Because Donald Trump has not been stopped by the fake false accusations against him by women seeking their 15 minute of fame, they have to try something else. That something...

Morgan Freeman, Jack Black and a host of other celebrities star in a video backing Americas' nuclear deal with Iran, wise-cracking their way through an often surreal mixture of Hollywood, politics and diplomacy.

Hollywood’s enemies of American freedom are busy undermining the life we have built and hope to keep. These social parasites, who have the wherewithal to live anywhere after they complete the destruction of America, are opening their checkbooks to the Democrats who will carry out the end game for America if we let them. People like Leonardo DiCaprio, Gwyneth Paltrow, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Barbra Streisand, whose personal lives have nothing whatsoever in common with our own, are pouring out their “One percenter” fortunes to force us to live as they deign we should live. In an effort to save Democrat...

Kanye West, Sonic Youth, Rage Against the Machine and many more artists rallied to boycott Arizona after the state passed a controversial law that encourages police officers to target residents they "reasonably suspect" to be undocumented. Rage Against the Machine's Zack de la Rocha is leading the boycott, dubbed "The Sound Strike," which finds the large group of artists refusing to perform in Arizona as long as the law is in place. "Fans of our music, our stories, our films and our words can be pulled over and harassed every day because they are brown or black, or for the...

During last month's MTV music video awards ceremony, actor Jack Black urged the audience join hands and pray to "dear dark lord Satan." In his prayer, the actor prayed that the musicians and nominees would have "continued success in the music industry." The awards program was broadcasted on the MTV network (a subsidiary of the Viacom Corporation) throughout the country through cable and satellite television.

In a video posted on YouTube, Black encouraged the large audience to join in by saying, "let me see those...

Every day in America serious Christians face increasing hostility at work, school, and in the culture because they stand for their faith and values.

"Anti-Christian bigotry is real and growing. Those who engage in it should be exposed and called to account." INSTANCE #10: Jack Black Musical Video...

This week, the creative minds behind “Hairspray,” composer Marc Shaiman and director Adam Shankman, opened their “Prop 8: The Musical” with an all-star studded cast that includes Jack Black, Neil Patrick Harris and John C. Reilly at Sacramento Community College. You can watch it here. The point of the production is to shame the voting public for passing Proposition 8 a month ago, which simply defined marriage in California as between a man and a woman. The musical is clearly intended to spark more “public outrage.” No doubt, more protests, more storming of Mormon temples and Catholic churches and more...
