ADELE SWEEPS THE 54TH ANNUAL GRAMMY AWARDS

Adele at the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards

Making a triumphant return to the stage after recovering from her Throat Surgery last fall, fave Brit Siren Adele had the audience cheering and clapping at the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards performing an eagerly-awaited rendition of Song of the Year/Record of the Year Winner, Rolling in the Deep. Tears were visible in her eyes following her performance as she stood and took-in a standing ovation.

Prior to this evening, Adele had collected two GRAMMY Awards in 2009 including the coveted Best New Artist.  Although many see that Award as somewhat of a career curse, she clearly is an exception garnering six more GRAMMYs to her name tonight, including top honours with her Disc 21 in the category Album of the Year.  Lifetime Achievement Award Winner Diana Ross handed the Award to the tearful 23-year-old, who thanked her Mother first and foremost even though she wasn't in attendance.

Foo Fighters also fared exceptionally well, winning six Awards tonight for their work on latest Disc, Wasting Light.  Since forming in 1994, the Band led by David Grohl have earned a whopping an impressive eleven GRAMMYs.

85-year-old Jazz Legend Tony Bennett was presented tonight with two additional GRAMMY Awards for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance with Body and Soul (ft. Amy Winehouse) and also his U.S. Billboard Hot 100 Chart-topping Duets II for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.   Although not televised, Bennett had Winehouse's Parents join him on-stage to accept the Award on-stage.  Bennett now has now won a total 16 GRAMMYs in his celebrated Career.  Both he and Carrie Underwood presented Best New Artist to Wisconsin's own Bon Iver.  Lead Singer Justin Vernon currently is seeing Canadian Singer/Songwriter Kathleen Edwards.

AARON ECKHART STARS IN DENNIS WILSON BIOPIC "THE DRUMMER"

Aaron Eckhart & Mr. Will-W.

In an intiguing bit of news, the amazing Aaron Eckhart is attached for a new Film called The Drummer, a Biopic about the last six years of The Beach Boys Drummer/Songwriter Dennis Wilson's life prior to his passing away late 1984; he was only 39 years-old.  The Title currently is listed as being in-production.

Wilson often was considered the Dark Horse of the Band and battled Alcohol and Drug Addiction. He drowned to death while recovering items he had thrown overboard at the Marina Del Ray in Los Angeles following a day-long drinking binge.

As an interesting fact, he once was friends with Serial Murderer Charles Manson and at one point they had worked on Music together before their Friendship had dissolved.

The Drummer will be directed by Randall Miller who also co-wrote its Script. International Distribution will be handled  by W2 Media as reported by Variety Magazine, which bought rights for a whopping seven figures. This should be a good one and perhaps will be underrated-Eckhart's long-overdue Plum Role!  Sounds meaty enough.
