Information has been officially released on Glastonbury’s website. Check it out below:
At 9am on Sunday, 7th October, tickets will go on sale at £205 (including £5 booking fee per ticket & £6 P&P per order). Entrance for children aged 12 and under remains free.
The ticket price covers entry to the Festival site from Wednesday 26th June until Monday 1st July 2013 and, as ever, includes a free programme. Once again, the Festival will be raising funds for Oxfam, Wateraid, Greenpeace and a host of local charities and causes (in 2011, more than £2m was raised).
As in 2011, you will be able to book a ticket by paying a £50 deposit per person, either online at glastonbury.seetickets.com, from 0844 412 4635 or, for international callers, from +44 1159 934 183. Up to 8 tickets can be bought at once, but there is only one ticket per registration (so if you’re planning to book for a group, please make sure everyone is registered).
Registration remains free of charge. If you’re not already registered, then head over to www.glastonburyregistration.co.uk now to fill in your details and upload your picture (it only takes a few minutes). Please do all this in advance of Setpember 30th (when registration will close) until after 7th October.
The booking site will then re-open on 2nd April 2013 for UK ticket buyers (25th February for international buyers), when you will have a week to pay your balance and to book everything else you might need (tipis, campervan tickets, car parking, coach and train travel, cancellation protection etc).
It will not be possible to pay for a ticket in full in October, when only deposits will be taken. This will allow people more time to save for their tickets, knowing that they have secured a booking. It will also help the Festival to reduce costs, allowing us to give more to our joint charities.
You can get even more info from the Glastonbury website.

CBS Lands 'Beverly Hills Cop' Redo
CBS has ordered the “Beverly Hills Cop” adaptation from Shawn Ryan, Eddie Murphy and Sony Pictures TV. After fielding hefty offers from each of the Big Four networks, Sony Pictures TV settled on CBS as the best home for the revival of the franchise that yielded three movies starring Eddie Murphy in 1984, ’87 and 1994. The new spin will revolve around the son of Murphy’s Axel Foley character, a cop transplanted from Detroit to Beverly Hills. Aaron Foley is a blue-collar cop who is also on the force and struggling to escape the shadow of his father. CBS has given the show a firm
pilot production commitment. Murphy will appear in the pilot and may be a recurring character if the show is picked up to series. Ryan and Murphy are executive producers with Marney Hochman Nash of Ryan’s Sony-based Midd Kid Prods.
CBS had the edge over its rivals in landing the project because of its strong track record with action-dramas with “NCIS,” “NCIS: Los Angeles” and “Hawaii 5-0.” CBS Entertainment prexy Nina Tassler said the network jumped at the chance to be in biz with Ryan, who previously steered the CBS drama “The Unit” from 2006-2009, and Murphy.
TBS Renews 'Sullivan & Son' (@SullivanTBS) for Second Season
The Vince Vaughn-produced comedy will return for 10 more episodes, which are slated to launch in 2013. The series’ first season is averaging more than 2.5 million viewers — nothing major but a promising start in a genre the network has long struggled with on the originals side. The half-hour effort has been helped by the strength of Big Bang Theory repeats, which have boosted ratings across the board.
“Sullivan & Son has gotten off to a buy viagra online pharmacy strong start, quickly building its own fan base,” said Michael Wright, president and head of programming for TBS, TNT and Turner Classic Movies. “We’ve had a great time working with Steve Byrne, Vince Vaughn, Peter Billingsley, Rob Long and the wonderful cast and crew of Sullivan & Son, and we look forward to seeing the show continue to grow in 2013.”
The comedy stars Steve Byrne as a corporate attorney who finds new life behind the bar when he leaves his Manhattan lifestyle and moves to Pittsburgh to take over his parents’ pub. The cast is round out by Christine Ebersole, Brian Doyle-Murray, Jodi Long, Valerie Azlynn, Vivian Bang, Owen Benjamin and The Wonder Years’ Dan Lauria.
When Sullivan returns, it will join ABC transplant Cougar Town and the recently renewed Men at Work, along with newcomers Wedding Band (a comedy), King of the Nerds (a reality competition) and Who Gets the Last Laugh?.

Happy 31st Birthday Beyoncé (@Beyonce)
Happy 31st Birthday to Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter aka Sasha Fierce aka Queen Bey. Whatever you call her she is regarded as one of the most talented and beautiful women in entertainment. She creates words, sets trends, demolishes records and leaves her mark wherever she lands.
Instead of the usual Sasha Fierce pics, I decided to show some of my favorite candid shots of Beyoncé. We always see her as the diva that she is and being a fan I am glad that she has given us a glimpse into her personal life.
“…my sister was very protective of me, and we were very sweet with each other. I’m sure if we were closer in age we wouldn’t have gotten along so great. But we’ve been super-close ever since I was about 13.” -Solange Kowles
“In the quest for love, we are all trying to find that perfect someone. Someone who cherishes you, someone who loves you for you, and loves you as much as you love them.” – Beyoncé
I wish Beyoncé all the best on her birthday! I hope she is taking some time for herself and her loved ones today.
Salute Queen Bey!

Looks like JLS is pulling out the big guns from the States for their next album. From That Grape Juice:
Produced by Bangladesh (Beyonce’s ‘Diva’, Brandy’s ‘Put It Down’), the track – christened ‘Hottest Girl In The World’ – is described as “a sleek, modern club song and shows a maturity and progression, taking the group out of Pop territory. A seamless transition into grown-up R&Bâ€.
“Grown up R&B†seems to not only be the underpinning of the single, but the backdrop of the entire album. For, Urban hitmakers The Runners, Rodney ‘Darkchild’ Jerkins, and Midi Mafia, all feature.
‘Hottest Girl In The World’ receives its radio premiere on September 6th and hits iTunes on October 21st. ‘Evolution’ arrives on November 5th.
