Rockin' the Rock Corps Event Backstage With Video
This is Ben to the 10 getting all up in the backstage area at the RockCorps Boost Mobile event—all access, you know what I'm saying? Well, maybe you don't.
I'm breakin' off a little sumpin'-sumpin' with rappers Akon, Common, Three 6 Mafia and those hip-hop legends Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag. Wait, whuuut? Watch the video, and all will be clearness. Tracy Morgan, too!
Peace out!
Beat Ben @ the Box Office: The Color of Mummy
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor marks the third time we've seen Brendan Fraser do a bad impression of Indiana Jones, and even though it's been seven years, he'll bring in more cash doing it. Oscar winner Rachel Weisz has wisely bowed out this time, replaced by Maria Bello.
For whatever reason, these movies make serious money. Look for Dragon Emperor to unearth around $48 million this weekend, pulling right alongside The Dark Knight for the top of the box office.
Think my head bandages need changing? Will having Jet Li as the undead baddie bring in even bigger bucks? Throw down your figures in the comments, and let's see if you can beat me at the box office.

Comic-Con: Wahlberg Talks Tough, Calls Out Trekkies
Mark Wahlberg handled the fans at San Diego Comic-Con masterfully, but first I grilled the tough guy on his game-turned-action flick Max Payne. He admits to having zero comic book and video-game knowledge, and that the crowd here is a little intimidating. He even throws out a challenge to Trekkies. Check out the clip to see what I mean.
Comic-Con: The Rock's Missing Superhero Tights
Yes, Race to Witch Mountain is a remake of '70s Disney classic Escape to Witch Mountain. And yes, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson stars.

Plus, I just had to ask Johnson why he hasn't made a superhero flick yet. Run the clip to get the full story.
