Rooney Mara Will Do Anything She’s Told, But Won’t Do Reverse Cowboy

Rooney Mara has always been an absolute f-cking weirdo (even Channing Tatum, her co-star in the upcoming thriller Side Effects, thinks so) and she's not showing any signs of toning down the crazy if her interview with director Stephen Soderbergh about the film in the new issue of Interview (via NY Daily News) is anything to judge by. It goes a little something like this: Rooney doesn't mind getting naked on screen or simulating sex with her fellow actor because there's nothing to be ashamed of in the human ...

Forest Whitaker Gets Falsely Accused of Theft

Because of course he does. Forest Whitaker is an incredibly well-respected actor, but he's not necessarily someone that Joe Schmoe on the streets would recognise as anyone other than "that guy", so it only makes sense that he'd go into a bodega (corner store, for the non-New Yorkers) on the Upper West Side and get accused of stealing, publicly frisked and then sent away without so much as an apology when they found absolutely nothing. I don't want to say this happened because he's black, but this...

Maya Rudolph Is Pregnant With Her Fourth Child, May Not Have a Job

The wonderfully hilarious Maya Rudolph must love being knocked up, because she's now expecting her fourth child with husband Paul Thomas Anderson. Yay, more funny babies! The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the news this week and also dropped another bomb: Up All Night may not continue as planned following Christina Applegate's decision to leave the show. While NBC was going to revamp the comedy (and incorporate Maya's real-life pregnancy into her character's storyline), they may now abandon the show altogether and have told the writers to start looking for new jobs. How could something that was theoretically so brilliant go so wrong? A little more on the situation:
NBC has not released Arnett or Rudolph from their contracts for the original Up All Night, a single-camera show that the network hoped to transform into a multi-camera, behind-the-scenes look at a struggling television series. The show is not officially dead, though presumably the stars' exits are being negotiated. The chaos comes at a key time for Arnett and Rudolph, with casting on the nearly 100 broadcast pilots already under way and both actors rocketing to the top of many network wish lists. Both Arnett and Rudolph have already received second-position offers for a number of broadcast pilots. CBS' Les Moonves in particular is said to want Arnett for an untitled comedy written and executive produced by Garcia about a recently divorced man whose parents move in with him. ABC also is high on the actor.
We all like Will Arnett, but Maya Rudolph is a goddamn national treasure (or very well should be) and it'll be absolutely criminal if she doesn't find another place to showcase her talent ASAP. Well, after the baby's born, anyway. />The wonderfully hilarious Maya Rudolph must love being knocked up, because she's now expecting her fourth child with husband Paul Thomas Anderson.

Miguel Doesn’t Pop Bottles In His Free Time, Guys

If you're sitting there asking yourself "Who in the hell is Miguel?", you're either not an R&B fan or Kelly Clarkson before his performance at the Grammys earlier this month. Who he is, really, is an incredibly talented singer who has been working in the industry for nearly a decade and makes what he describes as "eclectic, artsy R&B-pop". He's great, and we'll be hearing a lot more of him over the coming months and years, for sure. In any case, Miguel wants to set something straigh...

Emma Stone Looks Pretty at ‘The Croods’ Berlin Photo Call

Emma Stone turned up in Berlin on Friday for a photocall to promote her new animated film The Croods, which looks like some weird Flintstones rip-off.  I'm not too far off, apparently, as the IMDB synopsis reads: "The world's very first prehistoric family goes on a road trip to an uncharted and fantastical world." In any case, Emma and some of her voice co-stars (the cast includes Nicolas Cage, Cloris Leachman and Ryan Reynolds, but only Nic was there from that list) hit the blue backscreen (I...

Behold! The First Real Picture of Blue Ivy Carter Is Revealed!

There she is in all her glory: the new messiah, Blue Ivy Carter! Sure, we've seen dozens of blurry paparazzi photos of Beyoncé and Jay-Z's golden child, but this is the real deal. I mean, this is the child so special that she could talk right out of the womb and even her shit-filled diapers are magical. The picture is a still taken from Bey's HBO documentary Life Is But a Dream, which airs tonight. Damn, Blue looks like her father, don't you think? It's pretty hilarious how much attention this baby has received - nearly as ...

Drew Barrymore’s Getting Her Tattoos Removed For Judaism

When Drew Barrymore married husband Will Kopelman last summer, she knew it was for keeps - and that she'd eventually want to convert to Judaism since that's Will's background and they hope to raise their daughter Olive in the Jewish faith, as well. Since Drew never does anything half-assed, she's apparently decided to have her tattoos surgically removed to be more in line with the tenets of her new religion. From Star magazine (via Now): The actress will undergo painful laser surgery because she won't be allowed to get buried in a traditional Jewish ...

2 Chainz Gets Arrested By Police, Then Asked For Photos

I don't really get 2 Chainz, but I know I love him. He seems to spend a lot of time maxin' and relaxin', and I must be right about that because he was arrested in Maryland on Thursday after a routine speeding stop for marijuana possession. Hilariously, the police who took him into custody wanted pictures, and 2 Chainz himself also tweeted/Instagrammed one of the resulting photos. From E Online: Sgt. Marc Black, a spokesman for the Maryland State Police, told E! News that a van carrying 2...

The Canyons Is Coming This Summer

the canyons We can all let out that collective sigh of relief knowing that Paul Schrader's film The Canyons written by Bret Easton Ellis and starring James Deen, has been picked up by IFC films this summer. It will "premiere day-and-date and on digital platforms" meaning that you'll be able to download it (from something like iTunes or OnDemand) the same day it hits theaters. Meaning that I will be having an epic Canyons viewing party in my living room. Meaning that I will be spending a Friday night alone drinking. via...

Edward Furlong Goes Back To Jail

john connor Edward Furlong, super cool guy, was sentenced to jail today for allegedly violating the protective order his girlfriend filed against him. When I say "back to jail" what I mean is that he's been there three times in the past four months for domestic abuse. In 2010 he was put on three years probation for violating a protective order from his wife at the time. Let's also not forget that he gave his six-year-old cocaine. The judge alledgly commented at sentencing something like, "You're not ...

Mariah Carey Live-Tweeted Her Valentine’s Day

Mariah Carey, she of crazy high notes and crazy low spirals, really wanted everyone to know that she was having an awesome Valentine's Day. I, for one, am relieved. I don't know if I would feel okay not knowing that she took a nice hot bubble bath. [caption id="attachment_124266" align="aligncenter" width="500" caption="Note the fine monogrammed towels.

Brooklyn Decker Thinks Sideboob Is Pretty Sexy

First of all, I can't even believe that "sideboob" is a thing. It's a single word! It has its own website! Emma Watson does it, Miley Cyrus does it, Anne Hathaway does it! Anyone who's anyone lets half her breast hang out in public and it's celebrated! Even Brooklyn Decker likes to tease the tits, because she thinks it's a super sexy thing to do... so long as there's no nip slip, of course. From The Huffington Post: What do you think about sideboob? I think it’s pretty sexy. I think I would be a...
