Questionable Choices: Paul Rudd's Beard

Posted: 29 Dec 2010 09:11 AM PST

Paul Rudd will soon be starring in a new movie, called My Idiot Brother, opposite such familiar faces as Elizabeth Banks, Zooey Deschanel, Rashida Jones and Hugh Dancy. As Jezebel points out, his bearded look for the movie is a bit…questionable.

Up close, it pretty much looks like a disaster. But we have to disagree when the camera takes a step back to reveal the whole look. Some of that Paul Rudd charm still shines through.

Long hair paired with a beard is not a look I can get behind. BUT. Vertical stripes and short shorts? I kind of dig it. Obviously not a look that Rudd could get by in daily life. But if I were asked to crush on a film character dressed like this? I could do it. What do you think? Is this look just entirely heinous? School me in the comments.

Crushable Quotable: Ashton Kutcher Is Preparing For The Apocalypse

Posted: 29 Dec 2010 09:24 AM PST

Ashton Kutcher is hot. But those of you who thinks he keeps in shape to win parts in Hollywood clearly don’t know what’s up. Ashton’s keeping in shape so that he can cut a bitch when Armageddon gets here and people want to steal his resources.

Kutcher tells Men’s Fitness that he’s studying Muay Thai to fend off crazed looters:

“It will not take much for people to hit the panic button. The amount of convenience that people rely on based on electricity alone. You start taking out electricity and satellites, and people are going to lose their noodle.

“People are going to go, ‘That land’s not yours, prove that it’s yours,’ and the only thing you have to prove it’s yours is on an electronic file… People’s alarm systems at their homes will no longer work, Neither will our heating, our garbage disposals, hot-water heaters that run on gas but depend on electricity.

“What happens when all our modern conveniences fail? I’m going to be ready to take myself and my family to a safe place where they don’t have to worry.

You know, if I were as rich as Ashton, I would realize all of my paranoid fantasies as well:

5 Facts From Markai Durham's 'No Easy Decision' Abortion Special

Posted: 29 Dec 2010 08:56 AM PST

Last night, MTV ran a show called No Easy Decision, which documented the decision of one 16 And Pregnant star who decided to get an abortion. Markai Durham, one of the stays of MTV’s third season of 16 And Pregnant, got pregnant again, shortly after giving birth to her daughter Zakaria. She decided to get an abortion, and MTV’s cameras were there to capture it.

This is the first time that the MTV show has followed a girl who got an abortion, and it’s sure to be controversial. What are the details that went into what happened here?

1. Markai didn’t understand how her birth control worked

Markai missed an appointment for her birth control shot and she and her boyfriend James didn’t use condoms. She didn’t realize how quickly the contraceptive would go out of her system, and she got pregnant again.

2. Markai would rather get an abortion than give her child up for adoption.

After becoming teen parents, Markai and James decided they couldn’t handle another child. During 16 And Pregnant, it didn’t look like Markai considered abortion at all:

“I knew abortion was out there. I just never thought it would be an option for me.”

But with one child already, she decided she couldn’t handle raising another. As she said:

“I don’t want her to struggle because of my mistake.”

Markai and James decided they couldn’t afford another child:

“Not only set ourselves up to fail. But set our kids up to fail…Let’s just be real. We can’t take care of another baby.”

And for Markai, abortion was more feasible than adoption:

“Adoption’s not an option for me…I’m in love with this baby already. And this baby’s doing nothing but making me sick.”

3. James thought of the baby as a “thing.” Which Markai couldn’t do.


When Markai went to get the abortion, a woman at the clinic advised her:

“Don’t think of it as ten fingers and ten toes with a forehead and all that stuff. Because if you think of it like that, you’re going to be depressed. Think of it as what it is – a little ball of cells.”

Apparently, thinking of the pregnancy as a child makes it harder to get over the decision to abort. But Markai’s reaction shows that that is not so easy. As when James tried to agree, saying:

“I told you that from the get go…I never called that thing a baby. Because I told you not to even think of it as a baby.”

Markai immediately got upset:

“Call that thing a baby. Alright, exactly what it is. A thing.”

Markai just could not see it as a medical procedure, pointing to her daughter, she told James:

“A thing can turn out like that….nothing but a bunch of cells can turn out to be her.”

Posted: 29 Dec 2010 08:18 AM PST

As the rest of Hollywood has been announcing engagements, Joe Francis is bucking the trend, and splitting with his wife. After only two months of marriage. Good times!

Francis and Christina McLarty, an entertainment report for LA's KCAL9, were married in a lavish ceremony at his Mexico estate in early November. But it appears the wedding was more exciting than the marriage.

The couple dated for four years, but last only a few weeks as a married couple. According to Radar:

“He was talking about the details of the separation openly while at the Kardashian holiday party…Christina moved out a bit after Thanksgiving.”

Talking about your separation at a party thrown by the Kardashians? Stay classy Joe Francis.

Is Jessica Alba Getting Killed Off Of 'The Fantastic Four'?

Posted: 29 Dec 2010 07:26 AM PST

Somebody better shut Jessica Alba up soon. The Fantastic Four actress has been running her mouth off in interviews lately, and it looks like her franchise role might disappear.

According to Socialite Life, one of the characters in The Fantastic Four franchise is to set to get killed off. And it could be the Invisible Woman.

Recently, Alba had some negative things to say about her role in Fantastic Four. She told Elle magazine:

"[The director told me] 'It looks too real. It looks too painful. Can you be prettier when you cry? Cry pretty, Jessica.' He was like, 'Don't do that thing with your face. Just make it flat. We can CGI the tears in.'"

Note to Jessica Alba: directors don’t like it when you imply that they are hacks. And according to Monsters and Critics, Jessica could soon lose the cash cow of that franchise.

“Publishers are to kill off one of the characters in the January edition of the comic, Marvel has announced, and it is not known whether it will be Mr Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch or The Thing.”

Apparently, the change will have a “transformative effect on these characters – virtually nothing will be the same after the events of this story.”

It’s hard to imagine that the one girl in the series would get killed off, but that move could also jump start a killer revenge series. Chances are Jessica might be cleaning up her act in magazines, just in case.
