Flowers bloom at different times. Music has been a part of my life going back to my early teens, and it just comes out, it just pops out in different ways, whether it's playing jazz piano in Baker Boys or being a country artist in Crazy Heart. It's in me and it's just something that comes out every once in a while.

Did anyone see Larry Crowne? I know I didn't. It isn't that I don't love Tom Hanks---because, oh my God, do I looo-oooove Tom Hanks---but I have been pretty suspicious of his filmmaking decisions ever since Castaway. I'd read some lukewarm reviews for Larry Crowne, and I determined it wasn't for me.
So not everyone loved Larry Crowne. No big deal, right? But apparently, Tom Hanks really takes it to heart.
From the Guardian:
The National Enquirer reports that Hanks was filling up his ca...
Ugh. I did not want to post pics of Courtney Stodden this morning. How did this even happen? It's like I got tricked, man.
Anyway, according to E!, young Mrs. Hutchison just finished a photoshoot titled "Court Does Pam." And sure enough! The resemblance to a Baywatch-era Pamela Anderson is staggering. (Just to give you some scope: Pamela Anderson left Baywatch in 1997. Courtney Stodden was born in 1994.)

Why am I so stuck on Anne Hathaway lately? Sorry, you guys---I don't know what's with me.
Here's Miss Hathaway with One Day costar Jim Sturgess. And she's just so prim! Take her down a peg, Josh Horowitz!
By the way: Celebuzz is maybe none-too-keen on Hathaway's black-and-white striped maxi dress (it has a train), and I am kind of with them on this. In reviewing the video a third time, I feel like Hathaway is stepping on the hem of her own dress constantly. />

This just in: people are nuts. Here's a video of Lady Gaga trying to graciously maneuver through a crowd of fans and paparazzi. Yeesh. I don't envy that kid's career choice for one second.
The real pudding comes in the second half, when Gaga pauses to hug a hysterical, weepy fan. It's kind of a creepily long embrace, too. ("It was on my bucket list to meet you!" the fan wails. Aww!) />

Listen up, kiddies: I am a huge horror fan (and here is my favorite horror movie site), but I am also a pauper. So I seldom see movies in the theater unless I am super convinced of either their terrifyingness or their terrible-ness.
The last movie I saw was Insidious, for instance. (Do you have Catholic guilt? Do you suffer from sleep paralysis? If either question earns a "yes," please do not see Insidious, because it is a Mindfreak in the worst way. Love, Sleepless in Chicago, Still.)
So! Here's a surprisingly-competent Katie Holmes (with Memento's Guy Pearce) in the Guillermo del Toro -produced Don't Be Afraid of the Dark:
Next: I've heard and read a lot of complaints about the trailer for the Francis Ford Coppola's Twixt, an indie horror starring Val Kilmer, Elle Fanning, and Bruce Dern, with music by Dan Deacon. Folks say the trailer looks cheap; I think it looks like a horror film populated by paper dolls. What do you think?
Finally, here's perennial unicorn Tilda Swinton---and co-starring John C. Reilly as her husband---in a horrific Bad Seed plot about a mother and her sociopath son (based on a novel based on a true-ish story).
And yes, we covered this trailer a week ago, but all things come in Threes, and anyway, it's my birthday today, SO HERE, AGAIN:
Of the three, which horror trailer is the most awesome?

So Sherri Shepherd finally married her fiancé, Lamar Sally. Hurrah! The the View host has been looking merry (and marriage-skinny) on The Newlywed Game---a show I watch religiously, by the way, thank you---in anticipation of her upcoming wedding.
Plus, Sherri has been discussing her engagement for like a jillion years. So, okay, she's finally married, thank God, and phew. I am really, really excited to never hear about Sherri Shepherd's engagement ever again.
But here's the thing: despite S...
Brace yourself, because it's really happening: Mike Myers has officially signed on for Austin Powers 4.
There was speculation 3 years ago that a fourth Austin Powers movie was coming, but that rumor quickly dried up. The real question is, will audiences bother? Is this really a movie worth making?
Of course, this isn't the only project in Myers' pipeline: he's also set to become a first-time dad in the next few months.
Our favorite time-traveling spy was last seen in 2002's Goldmember, costarring a fresh-faced, 21-year-old Beyoncé in her first mov...
According to the new book Sleeping With the Enemy: Coco Chanel's Secret War, fashion designer Coco Chanel was purportedly a Nazi intelligence operative. Biographer Hal Vaughan claims Chanel was recruited by then-boyfriend Hans Günther von Dincklage, who himself was a master spy.
From Vaughan's website:
The book pieces together how Coco Chanel became a German intelligence operative; how and why she was enlisted in a number of spy missions; how she escaped arrest in France after the war, ...

Look closely! This beloved character actor is uncharacteristically scraggly.
His identity, after the jump…!
