From about seven years ago (when the judges were different but still not actually from America), Chipps Cooney auditioned for America’s Got Talent. Piers Morgan was not impressed… But if you were you can see more of Chipps (including a documentary about him) on his website.
Looking for something to do this weekend? You around Provo, Utah? Tomorrow (Saturday, June 17) will be the 2nd Annual Utah Arto of Magic Festival at the Provo Library and Jason Fun dropped by Fox 13 for a little demonstration to promote the festival.
Whatever you are doing (performing, visiting a local magic performance or participating in World Juggling Day) have a great– and safe– weekend!
Masters Of Illusion will return to the air soon with new episodes. Ed Alonzo recently posted this clip of him on the show… While you wait for the show to come back (June 30th, so about two weeks), check out Ed’s website.
Inés la Maga may be one of the busiest magicians in the world when it comes to TV appearances. She has just posted several new videos on her Vimeo page again! This sweet matrix (get it? those are sugar cubes) is from Torres En La Cocina (Torres in the Kitchen), which we presume is a cooking show!
And is that our imagination or is that the theme from Soap playing in the background?
Elena Rodriguez, managing editor of Red Bull TV’s Bullet Points, posted this special episode of the show that features Road Trick star Adam Trent.
So usually when Daniel Fernandez posts videos that are “behind the scenes” it is because he snuck in somewhere… but this is the back story of his Ellen Degeneres Show appearance… which should be airing today!
Penn & Teller: Fool Us has had an interesting history: starting out on ITV in England, it was cancelled but after a couple of years, returned on a new network in a new country and has been going strong ever since! Along the way its format was apparently licensed to other networks as well (The Hollywood Reporter once ran an article saying there would be a Ukrainian version but we are not sure that ever got made). Israel’s Channel 2 did make this version called Mi Yapil Et Ha Master (“Who Can Fool The Master?”) with Max Maven taking over the boys’ spot.
