Kevin Hart interview
Seacrest interviews Hart during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about his fear of roller coasters.
Let me tell you why I’m afraid. I don’t like the fact that I’m confined, yet that I’m still a little loose. I’m so small, even though the thing clamps me down, when you’re going up and down, my body leans forward and it always feels like I’m about to come out. So the theory is I’m going to go on one of those loops and I’m going to fall out. Like I’m going to slip up under this thing and fall. If you look at that video, look at the way I’m holding on. My leg is wrapped around it it’s like a little kid. It’s a fear, Ryan. It’s bad.
Kesha interview

I do, not like physically covered in dirt, but I just like them to be beardy and long hair and look like a little homeless. I like guys who look like they don’t groom themselves. I’m not into guys who are very high-maintenance. I don’t want them to take longer to get ready than me.
Busted Open interview
Ray sits down with Busted Open Radio to discuss TNA, fans and six sided wrestling rings.
I sent out a tweet an hour ago asking the fans what they want to see. 33 Retweets for the 4 side, 262 favorites for the 6 sided, so it looks like the fans that follow me want to see that 6 sided ring back. I think that’s one of the cool things about TNA how they will listen to fans opinions.

Wii U/3DS Minecraft release possible
Shigeru Miyamoto and Shinya Takahashi, managers of Nintendo’s Analysis & Development and Software Planning & Development departments respectively, tell Kotaku that they are interested in bringing Minecraft to Wii U or 3DS:
We’ve always thought internally that using the [Wii U] GamePad would probably make for a Minecraft that’s very easy to play. And, of course, if we were to do something with Minecraft on the 3DS, similarly we would probably do it where it would be easier to play and could probably reach a lot of kids.
However, they do not give any details regarding negotiations with Mojang or a timeline for release:
Maybe we’re meeting with them [Mojang]! Who knows?
Against legalizing recreational drugs
Francis tells delegates at a drug-enforcement conference in Rome that attempts to legalize recreational drugs such as marijuana…
…Are not only highly questionable from a legislative standpoint, but they fail to produce the desired effects. Let me state this in the clearest terms possible: the problem of drug use is not solved with drugs!
‘150 Australians in Syria’
Foreign Minister Julie Bishop says that about 150 Australians are fighting in Syria:
In Syria, it seems that over a period of time they have moved from supporting more moderate opposition groups to the more extreme, and that includes this brutal extremist group ISIS
Radicalized fighters could pose a domestic threat:
We are concerned that Australians are working with them [ISIS], becoming radicalized, learning the terrorist trade, and if they come back to Australia, of course it poses a security threat. I’ve canceled a number of passports on the advice of intelligence agencies.
Ed Sheeran interview

I went in with Timbaland just to kind of play him music and talk about stuff, but he was doing the [Justin] Timberlake and Jay Z albums at that time, so we didn’t get to make music. So I’d like to go in with him in the future.
Sam Smith interview
Seacrest interviews Smith during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions him about his debut album In the Lonely Hour.
Every single song is revealing, I said way too much. I’ve had this realization the other week when I was driving around London [and] there’s pictures of my face everywhere with the word Lonely underneath. I kind of realized I’e really really opened myself up on this record.
Demi Lovato interview
Seacrest interviews Lovato during On Air With Ryan Seacrest and questions her about collaborating with Ed Sheeran.
I’ve been a huge, huge fan of his. I love his music, I love his album, so I covered his song and he saw it. And then he got in contact, and we were like, ‘We should write together, we should do something together.’ And then we ended up playing the same show at the Hollywood Bowl, so were like we have to do the song together. I was really really exited and super honored to do that with him because he’s just so talented.
The Roman Show interview
Clay sits down with The Roman Show to discuss WWE and John Cena.
He is a pro. He comes to work everyday. He is straight forward and tells you exactly what it is. One of my things was I didn’t get to work a match with him. I would have dropped the weight I did and keep the muscle I have.
Busted Open interview
Kazarian sits down with Busted Open Radio to discuss TNA and Ring of Honor.
In a perfect scenario, if the distribution were to grow for Ring Of Honor and if it were available in more regions, who knows? The wrestling and the product can hold it’s own. A lot of things factor in to that that I thankfully have no control over. I’m happy being a wrestler. That’s up to the powers that be and with the buzz that Ring Of Honor has right now, that could happen.

Vogue cover
The actress appears on the cover of the July 2014 issue of Vogue magazine. Nyong’o discusses her role 12 Years a Slave.
I remember it being one of the most joyful times in my life—and also one of the most sorrowful. I didn’t want my experience to be a vain one. But I will say that when I watched it, my heartstrings were pulled so tight for [the main character] Solomon that I couldn’t go into the ego trip. I cried—I mean, I was inconsolable. I wept for an hour after the movie.
Terry Crews interview
Williams interviews Terry Crews and questions Crews on his marriage, family and new job.
I am the happiest man in Hollywood right now. It’s very very had to be in the TV business. You have to be very very good and I am blessed to be with the best cast on tv. The cast is amazing the show [Brooklyn Nine Nine] is like a 22 episode movie.
Interview
Williams interviews Jennifer Lopez and questions her breakup, family and career.
Yes, I’ve been single for a couple of months. I don’t look at the outside so much I’m not an outside-cover person, I am more of, like, an essence person. I’m a big soul searcher, and I read a lot of self-help books. I am always kinda searching for answers. I’ll randomly just open a Bible looking for answers and guidance.
Fils-Aime: Wii U ‘long life ahead’
Reggie Fils-Aime, president of Nintendo of America, says in an interview with Kotaku that, though the Wii U sales are lower than expected, he believes the console can still recover:
We believe the Wii U has a very long life ahead of it. It’s got great content coming that will help define the platform. For us, we think the 3DS is a very illustrative example. It wasn’t just the price cut. It was having great content that started with Kart 7 and 3D Land and then progressed and created a larger and larger footprint.
