HELLO
Greg Kurstin began studying piano
when he was 5, joined his first band
as guitarist at age 11 and co-wrote,
with school buddy Dweezil Zappa,
“My Mother Is a Space Cadet” at 12.
He’s toured with the Flaming Lips, Red
Hot Chili Peppers and Beck. He scored
the 2014 adaptation of the film Annie,
co-adapting and co-writing with Sia
songs including the showstopper,
“Opportunity.” He’s also known as an
“artist whisperer,” nurturing well-loved
and award-winning hits out of Pink
(Alecia Moore), Kelly Clarkson, Ellie
Goulding, Beck — and Adele. In an
interview with SiriusXM, the singer
credits Kurstin for helping her break
through writer’s block, leading to
three songs on the album 25, includ-
ing “Hello.” “This song was a massive
breakthrough for me with my writing
because it’d been pretty slow up to this
point,” she says. “And
I felt after I worked
with Greg on this, it
all poured right out
of me.” Adele per-
forms Sept. 6-7, at
the Palace of Auburn
Hills. $39.50-$149.50.

I just caught a PBS TV airing of Newton
Minow: An American Story and you really
must see this documentary, which can
be viewed on PBS online in full, for free.
If you know anything about Newton
Minow, a very spry 90, it’s probably that
he was the chairman of the FCC in the
early 1960s and that he took TV broad-
casters to task for offering viewers “a vast
wasteland” of junky programs. But there’s
so much more, including the remarkable
way that his life story touches on so many
very contemporary issues. He fought for
civil rights, disabled rights and gender
equity. He was a pioneer in satellite com-
munications and it was his law firm that
gave the Obamas their first law jobs —
and where they met.
On Labor Day, Sept. 5, at 10 p.m.,
Comedy Central will premiere a roast of
actor Rob Lowe. The roast master is David
Spade, and the roasters include come-
dian Jeff Ross, 50. No doubt, Lowe’s wild
“sexcapades” in the ’80s will be brought
up. However, it’s old news: He has been
Minow
happily married to his Jewish wife for
25 years, and their two sons were raised
Jewish.
James Wolk, 31, a Farmington Hills
native, will guest star on Billions, a
Showtime series that begins its second
season next February. He’ll play an inno-
vative tech billionaire. Currently, he’s co-
starring on Zoo on CBS, which has gotten
great ratings. Its second season two-hour
finale airs 9 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6.
