I get so sick and tired of celeb stories about breakups and skeeve (nude pic scandals, however, get a pass from me). Generally, I'd much rather read about heroicism. For instance: Harrison Ford making superhero rescues in his helicopter, Ryan Gosling breaking up brawls, or anything---just, like, anything---about Mighty Sean Bean. Stars! They're occasionally nothing like us!
So here's a nice one: Brad Pitt actually rescued a woman on the set of his new zombie flick, World War Z.
In one scene, a throng of extras was racing through the streets of ...
Earlier this week, reports emerged that Minka Kelly split from her boyfriend of three years, handsome baseball dude Derek Jeter.
Now Page Six reports that the breakup came "out of left field" (their accidental pun! Not mine!), stunning even the couple's closest friends. The report adds that Derek Jeter was none too happy with Minka Kelly's Esquire photoshoot. (By all other accounts, of course, their split was "amicable.")
But there's one more wrinkle to the story, and his name is Ramon Rodrigu...
1) Hint: In 1999, People dubbed him "Sexiest Man of the Century." But back when this actor was 23? Ehhh.
2) Hint: Before he got started in improv and writing, this funnyman planned to become a serious dramatic actor.
3) Hint: Before she became best-known as a bitter divorcee with a serious case of OCD, she was a fashion model.
4) Hint: This towhead is still really short.
Any guesses? The answers, after the break!

The World Wide Web was all aflutter with Jersey Shore recaps yesterday, but I really didn't want to link to any of them until I got myself all caught up.
As MTV has teased for months, Ronnie Ortiz-Aggro flies into an inevitable 'roid rage in this week's episode, yes.
But until that climactic moment, most of the episode is, in fact, a paragon of mature conflict resolution. Deena's kerfuffle with Pauly D and Vinny? Resolved! Sammi and Ronnie's relationship? Comfortable and happy (until they get wasted)! Should J-Woww butt into Sammi and Ronnie's newly happy relationship, even though she was privy to Ronnie's secret phone calls to some strumpet named Hannah? Nope, Snooki advises sagely.
Snooki and Mike's friendship is on the skids, too, but instead of letting "the Situation" escalate, Snooki makes a phone call to boyfriend Jionni. And all was well in Snooki-land.

Try as the Internet might to squelch the leak of the title track from Kelly Clarkson's new album, it is my sworn duty as an "entertainment" "blogger" to direct you to it.
So feast your ears on Clarkson's newest pop cottonball, "Mr. Know It All." Kelly's back!
Edit: Squelch successful.

…Aaaaand that's the whole story, right there in the headline. Radar reports that Leonardo DiCaprio gave Blake Lively's dad a coloring book for his birthday.
There's such a good joke in here somewhere, but I can't quite wrap my head around it. I've been really dull lately---I think I might have some kind of brain-eating bacteria or something. But yeah, anyway, back in Texas we used to tell this one Aggie joke, and it went, "Hey! Did you hear Texas A&M's library burned down? It was tragic. Fortunately, they...
According to the AP, a Los Angeles judge has ordered further investigations into neighbors' complaints about unruly Chris Brown. The judge expects a full report in time for Brown's October court hearing.
TMZ first broke the news that Chris Brown is the "neighbor from hell," adding that he blasts music at all hours, parks his expensive cars in clearly-marked designated handicapped spaces (he lives in a condo), vandalizes the property, and even---get this---races dogs up and down the hallways. Dog...
"I'm sure that in 1985 plutonium is available in every corner drugstore, but in 1955 it's a little hard to come by."
Oh, Dr. Emmett Brown! Fast-forward to the year 2011, when you will someday drive your DeLorean straight into the alcove of a Garbarino! They sell televisions, cell phones, and computers, so I'm sure you'll be able to find exactly the right component to fix your "Mr. Fusion." (No plutonium, though---sorry.)
The always-plucky Christopher Lloyd shot this commercial just two nights ago on the eerily empty streets of Buenos Aires. It seems… unfinished? Still, it's nice to see Doc Brown back in his lab coat. />

From the sound of it, a lot of folks are pretty amused (or, uh, not so amused) by Anne Hathaway's Yorkshire accent in the new flick One Day.
Hathaway, on playing a girl from Leeds:
One of the things I was struck by was that so often when people leave Yorkshire they don't hang on to the accent, the accent evens out and starts to mimic some new sounds from where they're from, so you can have 10 people from Yorkshire and they have 10 completely utterly different accents. But I worked with a ...
Well, she might not actually love the Biebs, but Kathy Griffin did make him the subject of her line-by-line satire of Jim Carrey's headline-making ode to Emma Stone.
In the video, Griffin applauds Bieber's "lesbian bangs." She also promises Justin Bieber that she still gets her period, "'cause I know you like that." Tee hee. />

A shorter version of this trailer aired on TV last night, and since I don't watch as much network television as I used to, I wasn't sure how new the trailer was. Turns out it's brand new---and it's news because Johnny Depp has been working on The Rum Diarysince 2007. The movie itself has reportedly been locked in pre-production purgatory since 2000; Hunter S. Thompson, frustrated by the slow development of The Rum Diary, famously called the project a "waterhead f---ckaround."
Hunter S. Thompson was 22 when he wrote the novel The Rum Diary, but the book was only finally published in 1998. It tells the story of Paul Kemp, a journalist who moves to San Juan, Puerto Rico, to write for a newspaper staffed almost entirely by alcoholics. (Not kidding.) The movie began filming, at last, in 2009, with Johnny Depp once again cast as its lead. It also stars Aaron Eckhart and Amber Heard. />

Do you know what I just mistyped? "Sean Peen." And then I couldn't let it go without telling you, because it is the best of all my Freudian finger-slips this week.
Anyway, here's a photo of Sean Peen, taking a stroll with his new lady, courtesy of People. Meh. We'll know this relationship is serious once they're photographed jogging together. (What? Oh.)
Why is this news, you ask? At first, I totally thought Sean Penn was already dating somebody new. Not so!
In fact, Sean Penn's gir...
