Meanwhile the Beastie Boys have returned to the charts after the death of member Adam Yauch last week. Their 1986 record "Licensed To Ill" re-entered the Billboard 200 at number 18 with 19,000 copies sold. Yauch died at age 47 following a battle with cancer.
Russell Brand is returning to the MTV stage. The comedian has signed on to host the MTV Movie Awards on June 03. Brand had previously been the M.C. at MTV's Video Music Awards in 2008 and 2009 - this will be his first time hosting the movie awards.
Finally, if being king doesn't work out, Prince Charles may have a fall-back career. The Prince of Wales visited the BBC studios in Glasgow, Scotland and gave a shot at reading the weather - going live with the news channel's lunchtime weather spot.
