According to E!Online, Kristen Stewart of Twilight fame, will play the role of an awkward 16 year old stripper opposite Sopranos star James Gandolfini in the new indie movie Welcome to the Rileys. The role apparently required some extra research on KStew’s behalf. As for James Gandolfini, he’s pretty adept to acting in strip club settings.
The Sun UK is reporting that American Idol, X-Factor mega-mogul Simon Cowell has extended Twilight hunk Robert Pattinson an open ended offer (read: BLANK CHECK) to sign a record deal. Pretty simple: something like this isn’t too far fetched. Simon knows where the money is, and where the KOOLs are. (Speaking of Kool, check out House chillin’ in the background).
Up just 2 points against the reigning NBA champion Lakers, with just under 24 seconds left, how does King James pump himself up and steel his own nerves? Why, rapping the lead track to his upcoming biopic of course. And yes, he got the victory.
Last night’s star-studded Hope for Haiti telethon raised an estimated minimum of $58 million, a preliminary figure that does not include donations from large corporations or private donors, according to CNN. Celebrities Leonardo DiCaprio and supercouple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have donated $1 million respectively, as have professional sports leagues Major League Baseball and NBA. Boxing promotor Top Rank, who represent such stars of the sport as Manny Pacquiao and Miguel Cotto, has pledged $1 off every ticket in 2010 will go to the Haiti relief effort.
Just kidding… But if you’re like us, the only things you noticed in this photo were a cutting knife, J-Lo, and a woman who looks like Yolanda Saldivar, the woman who killed Latina pop star Selena. J-Lo’s breakthrough role on the silver screen was her portrayal of the singer in the 1997 flick Selena. We didn’t think a sequel would work…
Comedian, alcoholic drug-addict Andy Dick was arrested in West Virginia this morning and jailed on two counts of sexual abuse in the first degree. A man alleges that he was talking to Dick when, “unexpectedly and without invitation,” Dick “grabbed his crotch and began kissing him.” He’s just lucky he didn’t do it on the Jersey Shore, where this happens.
Conan O’Brien’s seven-month run as host of The Tonight Show ended last night. The first guest Tom Hanks walked out to the band playing The Beatles classic “Lovely Rita,” an ode to his wife Rita Wilson, which reportedly cost NBC a cool $500,000. Other guests included Neil Young, Max Weinberg, Steve Carrell, and Will Ferrell. We would post the youtube clip of Will Ferrell leading a Coco-joined rendition of Free Bird, but NBC would have us take it down.
Teeny-bopper hunk Taylor Lautner, of Twilight fame, and Selena Gomez, Disney’s ethnic Miley Cyrus, were photoed canoodling in Vancouver this past week. It’s amazing we’ve seen Taylor sprout muscles faster than Alex Rodriguez in just one year. Kids grow up so fast!
Well, not really. We reported last month that Kal Penn, the iconic Kumar character of the Harold and Kumar movies, had taken a position as Associate Director in the White House Office of Public Liason. Here’s the kicker, he’s also received permission to film A Very Harold and Kumar Christmas, due in November 2010, on his downtime. We’re gonna bet Obama inhaled…
Britney Spears has her sights set on purchasing a $20,000 oxygen chamber in an effort to preserve her gorgeous “voice.” In related news, MiniMe Verne Troyer purcahsed an $10 bottle of Smirnoff to forget how short he is.
Paris Hilton is being sued by the makers of a straight-to-DVD flick she starred in called “Pledge This.” They claim she failed to whore out promote the film as her contract required. During questioning by the prosecution’s lawyers, Paris’s cell phone bill became an issue. Asked who gets her bills, she replied “I dont know. I’m assuming, like, whoever pays my bills. I never ask about that stuff.” Must be nice…
Depressing. The Daniel Larusso (Ralph Macchio) character will be played by Jaden Smith, son of Will Smith. He will be renamed ‘Dre’ in the flick… (that sound you just heard was the Blogsessed editors wailing in despair). The Mr. Myiagi character will be called Mr. Han for some reason, and played by Jackie Chan. When Jackie Chan sees a black-eyed Jaden Smith practicing martial-arts as part of a Wii video game, he decides to teach him martial arts and Chinese. The original was made in 1984, only 25 years ago… (that other sound you hear is the blood flowing gushing from Blogsessed editors’ wrists).
Yes people! Finally the Twilight based porno is here! Not a fan of the movie? Prefer sitcom-spoofed porn? Don’t fret Blogsesseders… Friends, 30 Rock, and Scrubs pornos are set for release soon.
If you haven’t been to see the new X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie – you’re probably not as big a nerd as us. But for those of you who have and are craving more, this bit of interesting news is circulating the web: Ryan Reynolds will play lewd, crude talking assassin, Deadpool in the Wolvie prequel spin-off. For those of you who have heard of this character, for your own good PLEASE MOVE OUT OF YOUR PARENT’S BASEMENT!!
Whatever happened to using your middle name (or first pet’s name) + your street address as your alter ego/porn star/ hotel pseudonym name? Robert Pattinson likes to go by Clive HandJob when he checks-in incognito. Dirty vampire.
Super sexy Hollywood starlet Megan Fox hasn’t gone Britney Spears with the clippers. No, no,.. This is all just an April Fools joke gone too far (is May 4th too far?). Anyways, much to the shagrin of comic geeks everywhere, Megan has turned down the role of Wonder Woman in the upcoming movie project, claiming the character is “lame”. This news should hopefully free her up for the starring role in a project we’ve been thinking a lot about called “Dude Where’s My Hand Lotion?!”
Flanimals, the much loved book series for children (and adults) created by “The Office” creator Ricky Gervais is being made into a movie. The movie will be executive produced by Gervais and he will voice the lead character. Flanimals is a story about 50 or so species of animals that are so ugly they’re cute. Maybe one of the characters heads will be shaped like a F*&%ing Orange! (If you haven’t check out the Ricky Gervais “The History of…” series on Itunes, you definetly should!)
