Harry Potter Star’s Very Revealing Pic, Tom Hardy Will Sing As Elton, Streisand’s Tell-All

Barbra Streisand has been regarded as the world’s greatest star for probably longer than you’ve been alive, but the EGOT-winner and committed equality activist will finally write a memoir to set the record straight on all the myths and inaccuracies you’ve read about her during her six decades in the business of show. The book is scheduled to be published in 2017.

A stage musical based on the life of Elton John is now in the works, but you won’t see it before noted non-singer Tom Hardy takes center stage as the master showman in the film bio Rocketman: Fury Road. (Just kidding about the Fury Road part, but Mad Max would make a great costume for Sir Elton.)

The band Indiana Queen will change the way you think about country music. Vocalist Kevin Thornton and his real-life partner star in a steamy video for their song “With You.” You can watch the slightly NSFW video here. The group is scheduled to headline Nashville Pride next month and Thornton told HuffPo, “Gay people out there telling us how much it means to them to see themselves represented in country music.”

Matthew Lewis, who played the interestingly-monikered Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter franchise, leaves very little to the imagination in his photo shoot for Attitude magazine.

The title trumpeter in Allison Lane‘s “The Blowing Boogie Bugle Man from Company G” is so dedicated to the war effort that he puts the boys to sleep with his blowing every night, but be warned: he can’t blow a thing if Judy Garland ain’t playing. Michael Musto, Casper Andreas and Matthew Ludwinski costar in the bawdy parody video.
