  OK, so the time of year specifically celebrating ritual turkey slaughter has come and gone and we're all the groggier for it.However, it's Monday now, and the time has come to shake off that holiday feeling and wade back into the everyday weekday life. And what better way to do that than with videos? So pull out that last slice of pumpkin pie and a sliver of turkey, and let's look back at the weekend that once was. Demi Lovato, Thursday at the Dallas Cowboys Thanksgiving game The Cowboys seem t

• You Can Blame Barney For The Area Tween Star Glut.

  Or so one can glean from the Associated Press piece, datelined in Carrollton, that ran in the Morning News and in countless other outlets this past weekend. (No big deal, but we've already covered this ground, AP! Only, well, not so gushingly...) This piece, which compares Barney to The Mickey Mouse Club of the '90s, extols the virtues of Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, and 10-year-old Seven Pounds star, Madison Pettis, of Arlington. So take it with a grain of salt."I look at [Lovato, Gomez and Petti

  Kenny Chesney @ Pizza Hut Park, Saturday, May 2Sure, his tractor is sexy, but that was the last thing Kenny Chesney fans were thinking about Saturday in Frisco. Instead of disappointing thousands when a spring storm rolled in, the sleeveless heartthrob pressed on, giving concert-goers at least a little of what they paid for.  Unfortunately for spectators, Chesney was only able to perform five songs before the show was called off.  Even more unfortunately, the show has not yet been resc

• Demi Lovato's Sophomore Disc Could Possibly Stand Atop Next Week's Billboard 200 Chart, Maybe.

  Billboard is reporting today that Colleyville's own Demi Lovato stands a damn fine fighting chance to debut atop next week's Billboard 200 chart when the numbers all come in on the sales for her sophomore release, Here We Go Again. Last year, Lovato's debut, Don't Forget, debuted at No. 2 on the chart. Thank the power of Disney if Lovato takes the top slot. Of course, should she lose, just look to a couple other major pop culture outfits as the culprit: The three other albums currently competing

• Whattup, Colleyville: Demi Lovato's Here We Go Again Tops The Billboard 200

  ​As expected, Colleyville's own Demi Lovato has the No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 chart this week, after selling 108,000 copies of the disc in its debut week of sales. (Last year, Lovato's debut disc, Don't Forget, debuted and peaked at No. 2 on the chart with 89,000 discs sold in its first week.)Still, despite being atop the Billboard 200, Lovato does not have the top-selling disc in the country. That honor, unsurprisingly, still belongs to the late Michael Jackson, whose compilation album
