Kristen Wiig Was “Really Bummed” Over The ‘Ghostbusters’ Reboot Criticism

kristen wiig Because the world is full of haters, a lot of people were pretty unhappy with the decision to remake Ghostbusters... particularly because it has an all-female cast. Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Leslie Jones, and Kate McKinnon are starring in the reboot of the '80s classic, and I think it's going to be great. Will it be the funniest thing ever created? Probably not, but it is a quirky female-driven action movie, and there aren't enough of those, so why is it such a bad thing? Hollywood is constantly ruining shit by "updating" it when it didn'...

Gwen Stefani & Gavin Rossdale Finalize Divorce

gwen stefani gavin rossdale Those of us who lived through the '90s totally 'shipping Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale got our hearts broken this summer when they announced that they were breaking up after 13 years of marriage. It was incredibly sad, but shit happens, and celebrity marriages making it that long are rare as hell. They got over a decade plus some adorable kids out of it, but it's over now, and they actually finalized the terms of their divorce this week. Sources connected with the couple tell us, Gwen and ...

Kate Winslet Narrates Anti-Bullying Disney Short Film ‘Daisy Chain’

kate winslet It's hard to imagine someone as phenomenally beautiful as Kate Winslet ever being bullied for... well, anything. She's gorgeous, she's incredibly charming, intelligent, talented, etc. so what's not to like? Of course, kids are cruel and also jealous, and Kate has dealt with her share of bullying when she was younger. She got the last laugh, of course, but she also wants to help kids who may be going through that now, and she's just narrated a new Disney short film about bullying called Daisy Chain...

lamar odom khloe kardsahian Now that more tests have been done on Lamar Odom following his serious medical emergency which put him in a coma for several days and has caused serious issues with several major organs, as well as his ability to walk and talk, the extent of what happened to him has somewhat been revealed.

Jeremy Renner Clarifies His Stance On The Hollywood Wage Gap

jeremy renner Earlier this week, Jeremy Renner gave us a refresher course on how to be a complete and total asshole in the form of his comments to Business Insider about the Hollywood wage gap. While his American Hustle co-star Jennifer Lawrence had spoken out against the bullshit fact that women get paid less than men in movies for the same amount of work, Renner wasn't all that interested in it. After all, it's "not his job" and he has better things to do with his time, like concentrate on his "craft". He was rightly called out as the asshole ...

Katy Perry’s Convent Dreams Are Being Stilted By A Bunch Of Nuns

katy perry Earlier this summer, it was revealed that Katy Perry was in a bidding war with a bunch of nuns over a convent in LA's Los Feliz neighborhood. Basically, she's willing to shell out $14.5 million for the building, the sale of which was being negotiated by Archibishop Jose Gomez. However, two of Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary's nuns claim that it's not Gomez's to sell and have vowed that Perry will get the convent over their dead bodies. The war is still ongoing - Perry clearly really w...

Drake Is Getting His Own Lipstick Shade At Tom Ford

drake Drake gets made fun of a lot for being the "softie" of the rap world, but whatever. He makes great music and doesn't pretend to be from a background he isn't from in order to gain street cred. Basically, I'm here for Drake 100% and always have been, so I'm more pleased about the news that he's getting his own lipstick shade as part of Tom Ford's Lips & Boys collection later this month than I am embarrassed for him about it. From People StyleWatch: As part of its second annual Lips & Bo...

Lamar Odom Undergoes Two Emergency Surgeries

lamar odom Lamar Odom was released from hospital and returned to Los Angeles last weekend after he spent several days in a coma following a serious drug overdose at a Nevada brothel. While his condition has greatly improved — obviously, since he's conscious, walking, and not going to die — his organs experienced extreme damage from the several strokes Lamar had, and now he's apparently required two emergency surgeries because of it. From TMZ: We're told the procedures involved chest issues, but we ...

Justin Bieber’s “Sorry” Is So Good & I Hate Myself For Saying It

jb Justin Bieber is a total dickhead and everyone knows it, but there's another hard truth we've all had to confront lately: he makes really, really good music. From "Where Are U Now" to "What Do You Mean", the Biebs has been killing it with catchy pop music, and now he's gone and done it again with his new song, "Sorry", and I don't even know who I am anymore. I'm obsessed (with this song, NOT him). The video is a bit of a hot mess and I'm assuming it's not the real thing — the whole "white girls dancing in ways popularized by ...

Rose Byrne & Bobby Cannavale Expecting Their First Child Together

rose byrne bobby cannavale Whoa — I feel so out of the loop here. I had no idea that Rose Byrne and Bobby Cannavale were even dating, let alone that they've actually been together since 2013 and things are serious. So serious, in fact, that it's been confirmed that Rose is pregnant with the couple's first child. Whaaaat? US Weekly confirmed the news, and also got a picture of Rose coming out of LAX the other day with a visible baby bump. The couple hasn't announced the pregnancy publicly and the reps haven't comment...

Adele Releases “Hello” & All Is Right In The World Again — VIDEO

adele Attention, attention! This is not a drill! After taking a few years off following the immense success of her sophomore album, 21, to get married and be a mum and just generally chill out away from her celebrity status, Adele is FINALLY back with a new album and a new single called "Hello", the video for which was released just this morning. Yay! I was up bright and early this morning when the 8am GST embargo was lifted and literally every single UK radio station began playing it. Adele also s...

Amber Rose Is Sick Of Being Defined By Her Boyfriends

Amber Rose is probably best known for being Kanye West's ex-girlfriend and the mother of Wiz Khalifa's child, and indeed that's why many of us know who she is. But she's also an aggressively smart, confident, successful woman with great things to say and a lot to offer the world, and she wishes that more people would focus on the latter rather than who she's slept with. This was definitely the case with her new GQ profile, which, while complimentary and overall super fair and a great read, still misrepresented her, according to the woman herself. The feature is in support of her new book, How To Be A Bad Bitch (which I'm downloading as we speak and can't wait to read this weekend), and it's a super in-depth look at Amber in all her complexities, but the way the publication promo'd the article was all about the famous dudes she's been with, which isn't great.
See what I mean? I get what Amber's saying, but you have to admit that without those famous boyfriends to give her context, many people wouldn't know who she is. But that doesn't mean that because it's a frame of reference that we shouldn't widen our scope and listen to what she has to say. Amber is clever as hell and has great things to say about women and sexuality and a number of things. Read the GQ article in full for proof - she discusses Kim Kardashian's sex tape, her thoughts on speaking to young girls about slut shaming at colleges, etc. It's a great read.
