Today on Hank talks about the death of David Bowie, Adele's carpool karaoke, and rumors of a new actor playing 'McDreamy' on Gray's Anatomy.

DAVID BOWIE

The death of music legend David Bowie has fans not only in mourning, but also buying up his albums. Sales of his new album, "Blackstar," are soaring, according to Reuters. The album is also #1 on iTunes U.S. and U.K. charts, as well as Amazon U.S. and U.K. charts. You can check out the video for the first single, "Lazarus," below. Bowie's record producer says there's no irony in that the song starts out, "Look up here. I'm in heaven." The producer says it was planned that way.

ADELE PLAYS CARPOOL KARAOKE

"The Late Late Show" host James Corden is famous for getting celebrities into cars and singing karaoke while driving around town. On Wednesday night, he'll be playing it with Adele. The teaser clip below shows just how epic this will be! EPIC!

Speaking of Adele, the singer plans to take her 3-year-old son on tour with her son, but one man in her life will be missing! Boyfriend Simon Konecki is staying back in London, according to the U.K.'s Daily Mail. His charity work will keep him in London, but he plans to catch up with the songstress when he can on the road. Lucky for him, Adele will be playing 8 dates in their hometown of London. She comes to Chicago next July for three sold out nights at the United Center.

A NEW MCDREAMY?

And it looks like "Grey's Anatomy" could have a new McDreamy on its hands. Italian hunk Giacomo Gianniotti, who had a recurring role as Dr. Andrew DeLuca, has been promoted to series regular. That means we'll be seeing a lot more of him making out with Maggie Pierce, played by Kelly McCreary. And if you really want to see more of Giacomo (and let's face it, who doesn't?), check out his ALS Ice Bucket Challenge video below.

LAST BUT NOT LEAST...

Oscar nominations come out Thursday morning. Tune in to "Good Morning America" starting at 7 a.m. to see who gets a nod for Hollywood's ultimate prize.
