"Be A Man" music video
Here are shots from the Joseph Kahn-directed video for "Be A Man" which appears on the "Any Given Sunday" soundtrack. There is also a CD-single released in Australia and in Europe which includes the radio edit, the album version, as well as a song by P.O.D. which also appears on the soundtrack. "Be A Man" was recorded during the Celebrity Skin sessions.
Courtney and Sam on "The Howard Stern Show"
Courtney and Sam appeared on "The Howard Stern Show" on December 9 and spoke about Melissa leaving the band, Dave Grohl, and leaving Geffen. The televised version of Stern's show was seen on the E! channel last month and appeared on Stern's cable show a couple weeks ago with behind-the-scenes footage of Courtney and Sam in the waiting room. More details can be found in one of our previous updates.
Courtney at The Golden Globe Awards
Courtney arrived just before the show began and made it onto NBC's pre-awards red-carpet-arrivals show. She spoke with Access Hollywood's Nancy O'Dell about her dress (John Galiano and glued on) and about how she was going to sing a piece from R.E.M.'s "The Great Beyond" since it was not nominated. She then met The West Wing's Rob Lowe and hurried off inside. Courtney presented Best Original Song and had a little fun with winner Phil Collins, asking him to say please before she would give it to him. The Toronto Star also reported about Galiano's dubbed "homeless collection" in last week's Fashion section and noted how Courtney's dress actually included ornaments such as dead rats and beer cans but she removed those for the night.
