When kids dress up for Halloween they usually don costumes of their favorite cartoon characters. But these cool kiddies took it to the next level and dressed up like their favorite rappers and singers.

Here's a video that should tickle your funny bone. The jokesters at Funny or Die created a hilarious video parodying ABC's hit series 'Scandal' to inform people about Obamacare, which rolls out on Oct. 1.

Sometimes change is good. At least that's what the fans thought when they voted Mack Wilds as the winner of last week's R&B Sound Off. With 61.9 percent, Mack took Lyfe Jennings' place as the R&B Sound Off King (he only received 38.1 percent of the votes).

'The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete,' a dramatic film featuring Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks and Anthony Mackie in addition to a few others, is set to open in select theaters on Oct. 11. The trailer shows just how dramatic circumstances are in the flick.

Jennifer Hudson is sheer proof that you don't need to win a singing contest to become a star. Taking seventh place in the third season of 'American Idol,' Hudson didn't stop fighting for the career of her dreams. Soon after the show, she was casted to play Effie White in the film remake of 'Dreamgirls,' which not only became a smash hit at the box office but also won the songstress an Academy Awar

Last week's R&B Sound Off between Tamar Braxton's 'The One' and Sevyn Streeter's 'It Won't Stop' was close. However, Braxton stays strong at the top with 53 percent of the votes while Streeter only received 47 percent.

Jennifer Hudson is chucking the deuces to her lying, misleading and cheating man on her new track, 'Gone, Gone, Gone.'

Jennifer Hudson may not have won her season of 'American Idol' -- that honor eventually went to Fantasia Barrino in 2004, for Season 3 -- but she is making her grand return to the show. She has reportedly been drafted to serve as a judge for Season 13 in 2014.
