Iron Man 2 star Scarlett Johansson reprises her role as the Black Widow in Marvel's The AVENGERS (breaking records and the #1 movie Cinco De Mayo weekend) and she was honored with a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame earlier this week.....

Scarlett's The AVENGERS' costar Jeremy Renner was by her side and spoke at the ceremony...

And the AVENGERS' super hero Thor was there too!  Well his wax figure anyway at Madame Tussauds.  It was an AMAZING likeness, I thought it was real at first!

CONGRATS to Scarlett Johansson!  Visit her Star at Hollywood Blvd. at Orange.  While there, stop by and check out Art Laboe's Star on the corner of Hollywood & Highland!!  And listen to the legendary Art Laboe every Sunday night 6pm-12am on 99.1 KGGI.

Well I survived another year at Coachella. 2012 was the first year it was held on two weekends.  It was apparently the same line up both weekends and I made it to Weekend 2.  It's a 3 day festival in Riverside County with so much music, art and people watching.  Here's a few of the highlights....

Afrojack Day 1	Dragonette Day 2	Gotye Day 3

Two of the most fun and crowd pleasing peformances were the Snoop Dogg & Dr Dre set and the David Guetta DJ Set.  So they deserve a separate photo gallery, click here for it 

More cool stuff, the artwork was fun and the people were bananas....

All weekend we are giving away more tickets to the San Diego Zoo and Safari Park !!!  Just be caller 29 when we ask to win your passes to hang with the animals.  When I go the zoo, I love to spend time with my favorite the FLAMINGOS!!!!  In fact, my Mommy used to have to drag me away, I love em so much!!  Click here for more info about the weekend giveway...

Congratulations to all of the 99.1 listeners going to the WORLD's biggest music festival: COACHELLA !!  And it's right here in RIVERSIDE COUNTY!!!  I'll be at Weekend 2!  At first I was bummed about not going this weekend, but dealing with RAIN at an outdoor festival has gotta be worse than trying to beat the heat.  So next weekend should be perfect with highs in the 90s and SONNY days!!  Till then, I'll CHER my memories of past Coachella Fests!
