## Transcript

[ MUSIC ] I'm Claire Suddath with Time Magazine, and this is what's on Pop Chart this week [ MUSIC ] So, it's a good week for Maori heads this week, but a bad week for Maori tattoos. [ SOUND ] Although a French museum recently returned the mummified skull of a Maori warrior to New Zealand, tattoo artist Victor S. Whitmill has sued The Hangover two. Sues Warner Brothers, for reproducing his copyrighted maiorag design that he inked on Mike Tyson's face in 2003. [ MUSIC ] Sometimes you don't know what you've been missing until you find it. That's the case with true love, and also the case with Bill Murray, who will fill that gaping Franklin Roosevelt sized hole in our hearts.

When he appears as FDR in the new film, Hyde Park on Hudson. The film is about the king and queen of England's 1939 trip to FDR's estates. Hijinx ensue I guess? I don't even know if it's a comedy, but hopefully someone gets slimed. [ MUSIC ] So, Michael Bolton has realized that self mockery could be a good career move. Well that's. [ MUSIC ] Misted from quest. To the isle of Tortuga. SNL's latest digital short in which the 90's kooner dresses up like characters from the Pirates of Carribean and Aaron Kakaritch. Has notched millions of youtube views in just a few days. This is probably the first time that Micheal Bolton has been cool since, ever.

[ MUSIC ] Here are five things that we don't have to worry about this week. We don't have to worry about Charlie Sheen becoming a musical inspiration Because Snoop Dogg's winning song is terrible. Good evening Mr. Sheen. Are you winning? No, he's smoking right now. You don't have to worry about Warren Buffet's sense humor. It's live and well. Or at least I hope it is. Because Buffett will premier on the season finale of The Office. You don't have to worry about feeding your odd Kenburn's addiction Because PBS has announced that the Documentarians Prohibition will air in the fall. It's not that sin is so terrible it's that sin is very attractive.

And you definitely don't have to worry about Paul McCartney's faith in marriage because even though he just went through a 50 million dollar divorce he is already newly engaged. [ MUSIC ] And you definitely don't have to worry that Hollywood movies are Becoming to high brow, because there's actually a movie called Dinosaurs vs Aliens that's in the works. Yeah, I don't know about that one. That's it. That's all we got for you on Top [ UNKNOWN ] this week. Check back next week and we'll have more. [ noise ]
