Fans de James Dean

The Smiths - How Soon is Now
The Smiths est le nom d'un groupe de rock britannique, créé en 1982 et séparé en 1987. C'était un quatuor musical de Manchester fondé autour de Johnny Marr (né le 31 octobre 1963) et de Steven Patrick Morrissey (né le 22 mai 1959), chanteur et parolier.
« L'image des Smiths est si forte qu'elle déclenche l'adoration totale comme la haine la plus féroce » Morrissey (1984)
Histoire du groupe
Morrissey est fan d'Oscar Wilde, d'Elvis Presley et de James Dean, des chanteuses pop britanniques des années 1960 (Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Dusty Springfield) et dans son adolescence, président du fan club des New York Dolls.
Morrissey s'improvisant chanteur, le quatuor se produit pour la première fois en public au Manchester Ritz le 4 octobre 1982. Leur premier single, Hand in Glove (de connivence) publié en mai 1983 sur le label indépendant Rough Trade, fascine le public. Il est suivi d'un autre grand succès, This Charming Man, en novembre 1983. En février 1984, leur premier album, simplement baptisé The Smiths, se vend à 300 000 exemplaires, prenant la seconde place des charts britanniques.
The Smiths incarne clairement le nouvel esprit des années 1980, méprisant les clips vidéo, les synthétiseurs et les États-Unis. Élu meilleur groupe de l'année 1984 au Royaume-Uni, et Morrissey meilleur interprète (un comble pour un autodidacte), le groupe tourne beaucoup au Royaume-Uni mais rarement en Europe (Les concerts à Paris en mai 1984, à l'Eldorado (photos) puis au Versailles, en décembre de la même année seront les seules dates françaises dans l'histoire des Smiths).
En 1985, le groupe publie un nouvel opus, Meat is Murder. Le titre "How Soon Is Now?", qui en est extrait, sera repris plus tard comme générique de la série TV Charmed. Un troisième album voit le jour en 1986, The Queen Is Dead, véritable chef-d'?uvre qui fera l'objet d'un album-hommage dix ans plus tard (The Smiths is dead, une initiative des Inrockuptibles).

Robert Pattinson Magazine Cover - HOT Photos!
http://Twitter.com/ClevverTV - Follow Us! A new photoshoot means brand new photos of Robert Pattinson. See them up next! I'm Dana Ward for Clevver TV, and we're jumping right into these new RP pics. The Twilight Saga star got down and dirty in a recent shoot with AnOtherMan magazine. Robert grabbed the cover, looking ready for fall with a thick jacket, upturned collar and his signature messy hair was a bit more styled than normal. The black and white photograph spread is casual, in-the-moment and sexy... and I gotta point out, that this guy looks eerily similar to old school movie star and heartthrob, James Dean. We get to see a little scruff as well as unposed, totally natural movements from the actor. In true Robert style, you can catch the fan favorite vampire pushing his hand through his hair nonchalantly, not really looking at the camera, and it almost makes you feel like he's just living his life and a camera just happens to be there to catch it on film. Pattinson looks really rugged in a t-shirt and jean jacket as well as in a tee and leather jacket. Moving on to what Pattinson talks about in the mag pages, he points out that even though the Twilight series sold millions of books, he couldn't even buy a copy in London. Robert goes on to say that hardly anyone he knew had read the vampire novels - except one person - saying QUOTE 'that's all I thought it was, something really small.' Boy, was he wrong, huh? Robert also says in the interview that when it comes to acting, he doesn't just want to "add" things to the character just for the sake of it because he's not an attention-seeker, and that acting is the most difficult thing he's ever done in his life. The AnOtherMan issue featuring Robert is out in the UK and it hits US-newsstands October 16th. Tell us what you think about the new photos of Pattinson in a comment below. For everything Twilight, always get it from us at Clevver TV. I'm Dana Ward in Beverly Hills - thanks for tuning in! Hosted by Dana Ward. 

Nick Jonas On VMAN Magazine Cover
http://Facebook.com/ClevverTV - Fan Page! http://Twitter.com/ClevverTV - Follow us! Listen up ladies - Nick Jonas is channelling his inner-James Dean for the cover of VMAN Magazine. ClevverTV breaks it down up next. Hello hello and welcome to ClevverTV. I'm Joslyn Davis with news on how Nick Jonas is stepping out on his own for the cover of VMAN Magazine. The 17 year old singer has three different covers out right now. The shots show off a whole different side of the youngest bro, and maybe that's because he's harnessing some of the fierce independence that he's becoming known for now with his new solo career. NJ rocks some bad-boy attire in VMAN: a leather jacket, a outlaw-looking suit and a jean shirt. We give Nick 2 fashionable thumbs up for his modeling skills. But what about you guys? Are you loving Nick's rebel without a cause look? Even Nick says he's not really much a rebel. He told that mag that he just prefers to "make people happy with [his] music." You know who else is probably loving this cover-man...a another star we adore, Selena Gomez...hmmm, very interesting. Nick's issue of VMAN is on news stands now, so don't forget to pick one up. Then come on back here and give us your review on all things Nick in the comments section below. And keep watching ClevverTV for constant entertainment news updates. In Beverly Hills, I'm Joslyn Davis, thanks for watching.
