This year's crop of Super Bowl commercials was pretty crappy, but we do have to hand it to the people who picked the tunes. Echo and the Bunnymen, James Brown, Ray Charles, Kanye West, Fun, the Animals? That's a hell of playlist right there. Now that our food coma has worn off, we went ahead and picked our favorite commercials of the evening, based on the musical choices alone. What were your favorites?

Volkswagen -- James Brown, 'Get Up Offa That Thing'

Madonna Backstage at the Super Bowl, Plus Maria Menounos' Bikini Payout

Posted: 06 Feb 2012 10:43 AM PST

After her halftime performance at the Super Bowl, Madonna spoke to "Extra's" Maria Menounos backstage, and the superstar said she felt "relieved... very happy," despite being ever so slightly upstaged by M.I.A.'s inappropriate gesture (of extending the middle finger) while on stage.

Madge didn't seem phased by M.I.A.'s actions, and instead, revealed, "I'm gonna go see my kids." When Maria beamed, "This is my favorite halftime show ever, not just 'cause you're my favorite," Madonna smiled, "Let's hope it stays that way."

It was a disappointing loss for the New England Patriots and for Menounos -- who lost a bet with AJ Calloway, and will have to wear a bikini in the middle of NYC's freezing Times Square on Monday. Rosie O'Donnell, who was in Indianapolis for the big game, said she would've thought of something better for the bet, explaining, "I would make her eat an entire Sara Lee cheesecake and a half-pint of Ben and Jerry's, and then a Big Mac at McDonald's. That terrifies her much more than a bikini."

As the game progressed and it looked like the Patriots were going to lose, Calloway warned Maria, "You better be doing some lunges, because it's a small bikini." Menounos replied, "There's still time!"

On Monday, Maria tweeted a photo of herself in a robe, with the caption, "Ready to face the music."

Tune in to "Extra" on Monday to see how it'll all go down in Times Square!

2011 may have been dominated by Adele's stranglehold on the Billboard charts and near monopoly of the public's admiration, but there is still one last, iron-willed holdout who has not fallen under her spell: Noel Gallagher. The High Flying Birds frontman is convinced that her success will not last.

"I feel sorry for girls in the music industry. They do have a very short shelf life," he said in an interview with the Mail on Sunday. "For instance, Duffy: Who? Gone. She was massive. And I don't doubt for a second that the same thing will happen to Adele."

Verizon and Coinstar, Inc. today announced the formation of a joint venture that will create a new choice for quality- and value-conscious consumers seeking a simple and affordable way to access the video entertainment they crave.

It will offer subscription services and more in an easy-to-use, flexible and affordable service that will allow all consumers across the U.S. to enjoy the new and popular entertainment they want, whenever they choose, using the media and devices they prefer. Additional brand and product information will be revealed in the coming months.

"When you consider the core elements the parties bring to this venture - our powerful brands; our national rental kiosk footprint; our anytime, anywhere network presence; and our mutual commitment to customer-focused innovation - it's clear that Verizon and Redbox are a powerful entertainment team," said , president of Verizon consumer and mass business markets.

"Consumers rely on Redbox for the latest new release movies at a great value, and our joint venture with Verizon will enable us to bring them even more value by offering expanded content offerings and greater flexibility for how and when they enjoy entertainment," said Paul Davis, chief executive officer of Coinstar, Inc. "This alliance is the result of a deliberate and strategic process to identify a partner who shares our commitment to delivering innovative solutions to consumers. We look forward to rolling out the shared benefits this venture will bring to consumers, retailers, and shareholders."

This venture between Verizon and Redbox will create the kind of national multi-platform product that customers are demanding from video entertainment service providers. It will leverage Verizon's industry-wide relationships with entertainment content providers, its advanced cloud computing technologies and state-of-the-art IP network infrastructure to distribute video on-demand content to its customers.

"Together, we are erasing old technology boundaries, freeing people to spontaneously enjoy the entertainment they want, whenever they choose, using the devices and media they prefer, at home or away."

By offering instantly available online and mobile content with immediate access to physical media through rental kiosks, Verizon and Redbox will be uniquely positioned to deliver the best of both worlds - digital and physical - to consumers across the country.

The joint venture is a limited liability company with Verizon holding a 65 percent ownership share and Redbox holding a 35 percent ownership share at the outset.

Report: Demi Moore in Rehab with Charlie Sheen's Ex, Brooke Mueller

Posted: 06 Feb 2012 09:52 AM PST

Demi Moore is spending some much-needed time in rehab, and coincidentally, the troubled actress is at the same facility as Charlie Sheen's ex-wife, Brooke Mueller, according to X17Online.

moore-mueller.jpg

"Extra" was the first to report that Moore was admitted last week to the luxurious, $1,500-a-day Cirque Lodge in Sundance, Utah. Mueller, 34, entered the facility a few weeks prior to Moore's arrival. Brooke, who has been in rehab several times before, was arrested for cocaine possession last December in Aspen. A source revealed, "Brooke is in treatment and doing fine. She'll get through it and she knows there's a good chance this won't be her last time in rehab."

The insider also said Mueller's parents are staying at a cabin nearby with her twin toddlers, Bob and Max, and bring the boys to visit her on a regular basis.

Meanwhile, Demi's treatment intensifies and sources say she is nearly in seclusion, and is only interacting with a small group of people as she addresses her eating disorder and addiction issues.

Demi's youngest daughter, Tallulah, recently celebrated her 18th birthday without Moore, and was snapped wearing a crown during a bash at her dad Bruce Willis' home. Outside Willis' residence, police were called to disperse the huge crowd of paparazzi eager to get a glimpse of Demi's daughters.

"Lifechangers" host and addictions expert Dr. Drew Pinsky said, "Somebody with the kinds of trauma that [Demi's] been through -- self-image issues, the self-worth issues -- it has to end in disaster if it's not really aggressively treated."
