Adam Sandler takes the bucks home
Sandler with co-star Jack Nicholson were no match at the box office this weekend. To two with their new film, “Anger Management” grabbed the #1 spot at the box office. The film grossed more than the next 12 films combines in box office sales bringing in $44.5 million, the highest gross ever for a film opening in April. The previous record was held by “The Scorpion King,” with $36.1 million. Colin Farrell in “Phone Booth” took the #2 spot.

Singer passes away
Singer Little Eva, 59, who was credited for the 1960s hit “The Loco-Motion,” succumbed to cervical cancer last Thursday in a North Carolina hospital, according to her manager. The song, recorded in 1962, was a smash hit. She worked until October 2001, when she became too weak from her illness to perform. She is survived by two daughters, a son, 15 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren.

Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs is scheduled to play blues legend Robert Johnson in the HBO biopic “Love in Vain,” according to trade papers. Production is scheduled to begin in September in Mississippi. Johnson died at the age of 27 and is responsible for such 1930s classics as “Crossroads,” and “I Believe I’ll Dust My Broom.”
