Today, Kino MacGregor and Kerri Verna have officially launched the world's first YogaTV channel created by yogis, for yogis. The campaign ran from January 16th through March 22nd and exceeded its initial original goal by nearly three times. The launch is being kicked off with thousands of people participating in an Instagram Handstand Challenge.

"OmStars has been our dream and we are thrilled that it is now a reality for us and for the world. OmStars is officially the world's first YogaTV channel for yogis to practice, surrender, reflect, and have some fun along the way," explains Kino MacGregor, co-founder of OmStars.

The online subscription thoughtfully guides users through courses designed by Kino and Kerri rather than a confusing stream of randomized classes. Each class fits into a larger course. In this way, users can naturally progress towards specific goals, whether that be understanding yoga, mastering inversions, or modifications. Together with leaders in yoga, meditation, mindfulness, and healthy living, all of the content is produced exclusively for the OmStars channel. There are currently 240 videos live on the channel.

 Kerri and her husband, Nick, wrapped filming of their yoga and healthy cooking videos and Natalie Prigoone from Australia's Great Uncooking will soon be featured on the channel.
The content focuses on the following areas:
  • Practice - Yoga, Meditation and Movement Courses
  • Insight - Research, Study, Knowledge and Wisdom Courses

HARRIET TUBMAN WILL BE-THE SOLE FEATURED CHARACTER, ON UNDERGROUND FOR A WEEK.

 WGN America announced today that the sixth installment of its gripping, hit series, "Underground," slated to air at a special time on Wednesday, April 12 at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, will in its entirety feature a solo performance by Aisha Hinds ("Under the Dome," Star Trek Into Darkness), whose electrifying portrayal of Harriet Tubman has already captivated viewers and critics around the country.  Tubman, the Underground Railroad's most famous conductor, risks her life repeatedly in order to free her family members and lead anyone willing to journey north across hostile territory, to freedom – a task she believes is her God-given mission.
"When introducing someone as iconic as Harriet Tubman, we felt compelled to attempt an episode as revolutionary as her spirit.  When we learned through research in 1858 she began to give talks about her life to like-minded abolitionists to raise money for the cause, we knew we had our in: A 'Ted Talk' with Harriet Tubman," said "Underground" Creators, Writers and Executive Producers Misha Green and Joe Pokaski.  "Our amazing crew, led by our director/executive producer Anthony Hemingway, set a beautiful stage for Aisha Hinds'powerhouse performance.  And we can only hope we did Araminta 'Minty' Ross proud."
"This episode is truly one of a kind.  It alone, masterfully revolutionizes TV storytelling," said Anthony Hemingway, "Underground" Director and Executive Producer.  "Aisha surrenders herself to the spirit of Harriet Tubman and gracefully reintroduces us to Harriet's humanity by sharing her story, in a chillingly exceptional performance.  I am extremely proud of the amazing artistry that every cast and crew member poured into making 'Underground,' it's the most exhilarating experience I've had as a filmmaker."
Hinds remarked, "Playing Harriet Tubman is both a great honor and also a tremendous call to duty as we examine how familiar the pain of our past can be felt in the present.  In sight of and in spite of the overwhelming obstacles stacked against her, Harriet transcended bondage and inspired generations in the pursuit of liberty."
In the all-new, extended episode entitled, "Minty," written by series co-creators Misha Green and Joe Pokaski, and directed by Emmy and Golden Globe Award® winner Anthony Hemingway, Tubman delivers a monumental and definitive speech about her life, her divine purpose and the perilous but necessary fight for freedom. Set in 1858 against the backdrop of a nation deeply divided by race, class and gender, Tubman makes a passionate plea to abolitionists to shift their thinking as she challenges them to take swift action against those who are determined to oppress others. In a career defining move, Hinds unleashes a transcendent performance that is not to be missed. "Minty" will air on Wednesday, April 12 during a special time slot at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on WGN America, with back-to-back encore airings throughout the night.

  • "…from the moment she appears onscreen, she oozes that larger-than-life image." – LaToya FergusonEntertainment Weekly

  • "[Aisha Hinds'] most recent role to date is her finest — Harriet Tubman." – Monique MenesesUS Magazine
  • "…incandescent, slyly funny Aisha Hinds"– Matt BrennanPaste
  • "Hinds channels all of the grit, gravitas and ungrammatical profundity of a mid-life Tubman with brilliant forte… She gives flesh, blood, sweat, and tears to Tubman in a way that we have never seen before." – Kelisha GravesBlackFilm.com
  • "Aisha Hinds is killing it at Harriet Tubman…I don't think anyone else could've have done a better job, and I'm loving everything about her." – Eddie Villanueva Jr.NerdReactor.com
  • "Aisha Hinds makes her much-anticipated debut as Harriet Tubman and if there was ever a time where sistahs were doing it for themselves, this is it." – Krystal Franklin, BLACKAMERICAWEB.COM 
  • "Hinds… entrance is undeniably exciting." – Danette Chavez, AVLCUB.COM 
  • "A good character introduction is one of the greatest joys television can offer, and in the March 8"Underground" season premiere, viewers were treated to two of them. [Aisha Hinds and Jasika Nicole] – Maureen RyanVariety 
The 10-episode second season of "Underground" follows an unremitting struggle for freedom within a divided America on the brink of civil war, each side vying to enact their own justice.

A FRENCH MADAM, HELPS SELL KONG'S SKULL.

Madame Tussauds have partnered with Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures to bring a larger than life KONG: Skull Island experience to the iconic wax attractions in New York and London, complete with an 18-foot high interactive animatronic head of the mythical monster.
Coinciding with the announcement of Kong's return, ginormous rumbling crates were spotted at iconic locations in both cities. In New York, a rumbling wooden shipping container caused a sensation among Midtown's morning commuters spotted being driven around Times Square on a flat-bed truck before making its way to Madame Tussauds on 42nd Street for delivery. 

The all new, multi-sensory environment, including the breathing, blinking and roaring, made-to-scale Kong head, will open March 2017, to celebrate the launch of the soon-to-be classic reboot; KONG: Skull Island. 

Visitors will embark on an adventure deep into the tropics of Skull Island. Once inside, they will be joined by a new figure of Captain James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston) as they journey through the secluded bamboo jungle. Trekking along, avoiding traps of massive spiders and uncovering various artifacts, guests will ultimately come to face the dominating robotic head of Kong himself: watching, snarling, and roaring at those who dare pass.
The enormous animatronic Kong head, made from over 350 square feet of specialist faux hair, took a team of 33 artists 72 days to build. Each movement of the head uses state-of-the-art pneumatic controls, designed specifically for Kong. The system precisely controls the pressure and flow of air to recreate lifelike facial movements, grunts, snorts and roars made by the ferocious beast.

"Creating such a large and lifelike animatronic is a first for Madame Tussauds - the sheer size of this project is staggering," said Anna Domingo, General Manager of Madame Tussauds New York. "We're thrilled to be working closely with Legendary Pictures to ensure our animatronic head is made to the exact film-scale, so visitors really will come face-to-face and feel the power and scale of the Kong depicted on the big screen."
The KONG: Skull Island experience will open to the public exclusively at Madame Tussauds New York and London in March 2017.
Kong: Skull Island will be in theaters from March 10, 2017.

"Chained to the Rhythm" Lyrics:
Verse 1:Are we crazy
Living our lives through a lens
Trapped in our white picket fence
Like ornaments
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Aren't you lonely
Up there in utopia
Where nothing will ever be enough
Happily numb
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Pre-chorus:
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on
Chorus:
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Verse 2:Are we tone deaf
Keep sweeping it under the mat
Thought we could do better than that
I hope we can
So comfortable, we're living in a bubble, bubble
So comfortable, we cannot see the trouble, trouble
Pre-chorus:
So put your rose-colored glasses on
And party on
Chorus:
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm
Bridge:
It is my desire
Break down the walls to connect, inspire
Up in your high place, liars
Time is ticking for the empire
The truth they feed is feeble
As so many times before
They greed over the people
They stumbling and fumbling
And we about to riot
They woke up, they woke up the lions
Chorus:
Turn it up, it's your favorite song
Dance, dance, dance to the distortion
Turn it up, keep it on repeat
Stumbling around like a wasted zombie
Yeah, we think we're free
Drink, this one's on me
We're all chained to the rhythm
To the rhythm
To the rhythm

80S AD ICON, DOG SPUDS MCKENZIE 2 RETURN FROM THE GRAVE.

Bud Light, the Official Beer of the NFL, will debut a new 90-second Super Bowl spot as part of the brand's new campaign, "Famous Among Friends," re-introducing the brand's beloved  '80s pop culture icon and man's best friend, Spuds MacKenzie.

In the new Super Bowl spot, "Ghost Spuds," Spuds MacKenzie returns to visit an unsuspecting man, and along the way, helps him realize that sharing a Bud Light with friends is more than just drinking beers; it's about creating meaningful memories with friends.
"Bud Light has been present at memorable moments – big or small – among friends for decades," said Bud Light vice president Alex Lambrecht. "There's no one better than Spuds to celebrate Bud Light, and remind everyone that we don't just make beer, we enable moments that build and strengthen friendships."

The release of "Ghost Spuds," created by Wieden + Kennedy New York coincides with the 30th anniversary of Spuds' first appearance in Bud Light's Super Bowl XXI spot. The beloved Bull Terrier first appeared in the Super Bowl in 1987 and quickly won over the hearts and minds of Bud Light drinkers everywhere, and cemented his status as a pop culture staple. His affinity for living life to the fullest with friends, both old and new, embodied the spirit of Bud Light that we still honor today.

Although Spuds will be shedding his former persona, his message of lasting friendships is one that intends to resonate across generations, and integrate with Bud Light's broader "Famous Among Friends" brand campaign. Since 1982, Bud Light has been the most social, sessionable beer on the market, and the ultimate ice-breaker among strangers who are just friends you haven't had a Bud Light with yet. Spuds is coming back temporarily to help spread Bud Light's message of friendship in 2017 and after the Super Bowl will return to the after-life following the big game.

"It's been 30 years since we last saw Spuds MacKenzie. Or 210 if you are counting in dog years," says Wieden + Kennedy New York executive creative director, Karl Lieberman. "Nevertheless, it was the right time to set the record straight about what Spuds always represented: bringing friends together."

The ghost of Spuds is voiced by actor Carl Weathers, known for his roles in "Rocky," "Happy Gilmore" and more. "Ghost Spuds" is the second spot in Bud Light's recently launched campaign. The first spot, "Between Friends" aired during the AFC and NFC Championship games.
