Will Lil Wayne, Coldplay and the Jonas Brothers win Grammys this year? And will Stevie Wonder compete on Dancing with the Stars? See what our surprise celebrity guests predict on this star-studded edition of PredictoTV.
Must every TV show I watched as a kid be turned into a movie (and vice versa)? The latest 80s TV show getting remade is The A-Team.
The original foursome–cigar-chomping Hannibal, pretty boy Face, crazy Murdock and of course B.A. “Bad Attitude” Baracus–will be shined up and modernized into modern-day heroes. No doubt the awesome GMC van with the red stripe be replaced by a Prius, and the renegade Vietnam vets will turned into vegan pacificts who solve problems with therapy sessions rather than machine guns.
Okay, so it won’t be that bad. But all I can say is that if an A-Team movie must be made, it has to include Mr. T reprising his role as B.A. Baracus. Baracus equals mohawks, gold chains and muscles. It’s simply impossible –not to mention ludicrous–for any actor to step into that role except the T-Man. And I pity the fool who tries.
The Predicto Mobile community agrees with me: 66% predict that Mr. T will play B.A. Baracus in the movie version of The A-Team.

Hey Oscars! You’re not the only big deal awards show happening in February. Your cousin Grammy is also set to hold its own gold-plated shindig on February 8th, and I guarantee their nominees will be more outrageously dressed than yours
I’ll tackle the big categories in future blog posts (Best Album, Best Record, etc.) but right now I’d like to talk about the Brangelina of the music world, Beyonce and Jay-Z.
Like their movie star counterparts, this super couple are both nominated for awards this year. Jay-Z got 6 Grammy nods, including for Best Rap Album, Rap Solo Performance, and Best Rap Performance While Wearing Clark Kent Glasses.
His better half only has one nomination, and its an odd one: Best R&B Female Vocal Performance for a song called “Me Myself & I,” which can be found on something called The Beyonce Experience Live Audio. Has anyone heard of this before, or knows what this even means?
In any case, 68% of the Predicto Mobile community thinks that Jay-Zonce will both win Grammys this year.
I know, that couple nickname doesn’t really work. If you have better suggestions, let me know in the comments. (How about Bey-Z instead?) And if you’d like to predict other Grammy winners, check out Predicto.com today!
But a slumdog might spoil Ben’s party. Slumdog Millionaire is a critical fave, racking up awards from practically every organization that hands out statuettes. The film about oppressed but adorable Indian youngsters earned 10 Oscar nods. Pretty impressive considering that it has no A-list stars and features, you know, an actual slum. (On the bright side: dancing!)
Don’t count out The Dark Knight though. It might have not received a nomination for Best Picture, Director or Screenplay, but it still received 8 nominations. Mostly of them are for technical awards like Visual Effects and Art Direction, which the movie will probably sweep. (Not to mention that Heath Ledger is a virtual lock to win Best Supporting Actor.)
Maybe the Predicto Mobile community feels the same way, because 49% voted that The Dark Knight will win the most Oscars. (35% voted for Benjamin Button, and 16% voted for Slumdog.)
How would you like to vote on who will win Oscars, Grammys, Razzies and other awards? Well, just click your heels three times and chant “There’s no place like Predicto!”
Miss Predicto is admittedly not the biggest sports fan in the world. Yes, I’m that annoying person who watches the game for the commercials. But the game’s only the biggest sporting event in the entire world, so I guess I should show some interest in the actual game itself. Or at least pretend to.
Apparently the AFC Champion Pittsburgh Steelers and NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals are connected in a really interesting way. Way back in 1944, World War II left the NFL without a lot of players, so the Steelers and Cardinals merged for one season as a team called Card-Pitt. (That is terribly uncatchy. It sounds like “carpets.” I guess Pitt-Cards wouldn’t be any better though.)
The combo team went a a whopping 0-10 before they were mercifully split back into two teams–and two different destinies. The Steelers have won 5 championships altogether, and have been to the Super Bowl four times in the last six years. The Cardinals have not been nearly as lucky: this is the team’s first time at the big dance since 1947 (yikes!), when the team was still based in Chicago.
The Cardinals definitely seem to be the underdogs, so it’s no wonder that 71% of the Predicto Mobile community predict that the Pittsburgh Steelers will win the Super Bowl.
And what of the Super Bowl MVP? 51% predict it will be Steelers quarterback Ben “Big Ben” Roethlisberger.
And I predict that I will try hard to pay attention to the game this year, only to change the channel to a “Real Housewives” marathon before halftime.

We’ve all come down with Obama fever! It’s hard to ignore all the media coverage regarding the historic inauguration of our 44th President of the United States. The entire world is blissed out at the prospect–this event is like New Year’s Eve, Election Night 2008 and Mardi Gras all rolled into one.
The Predicto Mobile community has some predictions on what will happen during the inauguration:
84% believe more than 2 million people attend President-Elect Obama’s swearing in ceremony. If you’ve seen the shiny, happy crowds that have already descended on Washington DC, you know this is probably the case.
66% believe that Michelle Obama will wear a dress designed by Oscar de la Renta at the inauguration. Michelle is the biggest fashion icon since Jackie Kennedy, and perhaps she’ll wear a gown designed by the same person responsible for the inaugural looks of former First Ladies Laura Bush and Hillary Clinton.
The Predicto Mobile community agrees with me: 51% say that Bikini Girl will not be a Top 12 finalist on American Idol.
That doesn’t mean Bikini Girl won’t become famous though. After all, there are a million other reality shows she can appear on. Maybe she’ll be the next Bachelorette? Or end up on Celebrity Rehab? In any case, she’s got a real future as a D-list celebrity–as long as she doesn’t trade in her bikini for a turtleneck.

Miss Predicto tends to only watch reality shows where there’s a grand prize involved, like showing clothes at Fashion Week or starring in a Cover Girl commercial. The one exception? The Real Housewives of Atlanta!
The blinged-up, trash-talking wives are so much fun to watch–especially when they’re feuding about fake hair and faker singing careers. Now that they’re about to film a second season of their show, the producers have decided to shake up the cast.
First off, they cut DeShawn, who says that she was dropped because she’s “too human for a circus show.” Really, they cut her because her biggest drama was holding a charity event where she wanted to raise $1 million and ended up raising $0.00. I think that’s the only interesting thing that happened to her all season.
Tameka would fit in perfectly with the Atlanta crew, because she’s a slightly mannish egomaniac whose husband funds her lavish lifestyle, just like Sheree and Kim. Plus, she would expect to be the center of attention since she’s married to an actual celebrity, which would drive NeNe, the real star of the show, absolutely crazy.
The Predicto Mobile community seems to like the idea: 67% voted that Usher’s wife Tameka Raymond join the cast of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ this season.
If Tameka does join, I’d advise her to save up her cash, since most of the housewives on the show ended up flat-ass broke. Good luck Tam!

You see, she’s been nominated for Worst Actress of the Year for her role in The Hottie and The Nottie. It doesn’t even matter who her competition is, because the Razzies were invented to honor an “actress” like Paris.
Paris is talented in her own special way. A lot of people can be adequate or mediocre, but our favorite tabloid target elevates awfulness to a level of transcendence.
Here’s just a sampling of her reviews:
“Hilton’s face, like her name, is a hotel, but one in which every room is sparkling and vacant.” — New York Daily News
“[Hilton is] limited to a single, all-too-familiar expression of smug self-satisfaction, and she delivers her lines in a tone somewhere between ’seductive’ and ‘dish-soap commercial.’” — The Onion (A.V. Club)
“She resembles nothing so much as a tiny blond velociraptor.” — Boston Globe
Ouch! Anyway, the Predicto Mobile community agrees with the movie critics: 80% believe that Paris Hilton will win a Razzie for Worst Actress.
I doubt Paris will stop trying to act; I can only hope that Hollywood will stop giving her opportunities to do so. (Like you, Todd Solondz.)

I always feel like the Golden Globes mark the beginning of awards season. It’s the first time we see the usual suspects get glammed up and parade down the red carpet while trying to answer Ryan Seacrest’s insipid questions with a straight face (except Brangelina of course).
I have to admit I love awards season, despite the long, overwrought speeches. Do actors really need to thank make-up artists and personal trainers? I’d rather see people give each other the finger or spout nonsense like “Deal with it, Cate Blanchett” than listen to movie stars read off a list of names of people I don’t know.
The one exception: Kate Winslet. It’s hard to believe that someone so awesome–IMHO she’s absolutely stellar in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Sense and Sensibility, and Little Children–had been a perpetual awards show bridesmaid: always nominated, never a winner.
So I gladly listened to her weep as she accepted Best Supporting Actress for The Reader and Best Actress for Revolutionary Road. I bet she’s so used to losing she probably didn’t think she’d win another award again. So she took advantage of the moment and thanked every person she could think of (except Angelina. Ha!)
Kate might have seemed shocked that she won two awards, but the Predicto Mobile community sure wasn’t: 56% accurately predicted that Kate Winslet would win Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress honors at the Golden Globes.
Miss Winslet’s a shoo-in to get Oscar noms, but will she score the grand prize? Well she’s defnitely a front-runner now. Better have a new speech handy, Kate!

His movie, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, led the pack with 13 nominations, second to Titanic and All About Eve for the highest number of Oscar nods. Looks like ol’ Ben Button is the front-runner by those numbers alone,
