Watch: Kanye West, ‘All Of The Lights’ (Alt. Version)

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 06:08 PM PST

Last week Kanye West released a music video for his new single All of the Lights featuring Rihanna and Kid Cudi on guest vocals. Apparently all of the flashing lights in that video caused complaints because it, apparently, triggered epileptic seizures in some viewers. As a result, Kanye has released a second video for the song that, apparently, features less flashing lights … so as not to induce seizures in anyone watching. Check out this less-seizure inducing version of the video below.


To be honest, there’s a lot of flashing going on in this video, too but … I didn’t have a problem with the first video so what do I know. Check out the second take of Kanye‘s All of the Lights:


Can you spot any differences? I guess there are fewer flashing police lights. In any event, I am still loving the HELL out of this song so I’m happy for another excuse to post a video for this song. Yay for All of the Lights! Boo to epileptic seizures.

Watch: James Franco & Anne Hathaway In An Unused Oscar Parody Of ‘Grease’

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 05:13 PM PST

Remember that weird, soundless, dreamy video that James Franco posted on his Twitter profile that seemed to show him and Anne Hathaway in a parody of Grease? Well, if you watched the Academy Awards telecast on Sunday night you did NOT see that skit in the opening of the show. But, right now we get to see the parody in full … and based on the lyrics alone, I can see why it was cut from the Oscars telecast.


On the positive side, both James and Anne look very much like Danny and Sandy in Grease. The singing tho, OY, is pretty bad (James moreso than Anne). The lyrics are … well … just watch and see/hear for yourselves:


UGH. So bad. This is one of those things that sounds better in theory than it turns out in practice. I’m glad this was cut from the show … but now that the whole thing is over, it’s kinda fun to cringe while watching this online. Yeah … this is horrendous … don’t you think?

Michael Lohan, Jr. Goes Surfing, Sun Bathing

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 04:15 PM PST

Last weekend we learned that Lindsay Lohan‘s younger brother, Michael Lohan, Jr., is thinking of legally changing his name to Michael Cameron so as to distance himself a bit from his media-hungry, trainwreck of a father — who shares his name — Michael Lohan. Today we get to see a few photos of Jr. out with his younger brother Dakota Cody Lohan as the guys went for a surf in SoCal. As you can see from the shirtless photos below, Jr. doesn’t even need to change his name to differentiate himself from his father … cuz there is no way Michael Lohan, Sr. could ever look like this.


As you may know, Michael Lohan, Sr. is happy to share shirtless (or sheer shirt) photos of himself at every turn … and no, they do not look like this. As I said before, I fully support Jr.‘s plan to change his name … and I am also happy to support any decision he may make in the future to go shirtless after surfing. I guess I’m just a very supportive kinda guy ;)

Brian Austin Green Shaves His Head For A New Hair’Do

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 03:15 PM PST

Brian Austen Green, aka David Silver from Beverly Hills, 90210, was spotted out and about in SoCal on a coffee run yesterday and he was sporting a pretty severe new hair’do. It’s unclear if Bri Bri got himself scalped because of a part in a film or TV series or if he just decided to buzz off his hair for the Hell of it but … well, it’s a new look.


I can’t say that I really love the hair cap look but I guess it’s his head, he can do with it what he pleases. To be honest, this hair’do looks like something David Silver would’ve rocked back in his hey day at West Beverly High. Back then, he always did prefer to have more hair on top of his head rather than on the side of it. What do y’all think of Brian Austin Green‘s new ‘do? Are you a fan?

First Look: Robert Pattison Wears An Alligator On The Cover Of ‘Vanity Fair’

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 02:04 PM PST

Last week we saw photos of Robert Pattinson from the set of a Vanity Fair photoshoot he did a few weeks ago. Today we get our first look at R. Pattz on the cover of the new issue of VF and all you really need to know about the cover is that he is wearing an alligator around his neck. HE IS WEARING AN ALLIGATOR AROUND HIS NECK!!!


Um … what the EFF is going on here? When we saw those photos from the set last week, I thought the silliest thing about the whole shoot was going to be the hat that Rob stole from Debbie Gibson. Little did I know that there would be an ALLIGATOR thrown into the mix to spice things up. I mean … yeah. I don’t get it. I don’t to get it. But this shizz is funny as hell. I can’t wait to see what the photos inside the mag will look like. If Robert Pattinson is not wrestling with this alligator in one of the photos, I’m gonna be pissed as Hell!

So ………………… thoughts?

Justin Bieber & Selena Gomez Caught KISSING!

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 01:13 PM PST

Woo dogies … if Justin Bieber fans were upset by all of those photos we saw yesterday of The Biebs and new girlfriend Selena Gomez coupled up for a date night on Oscar Night last Sunday, then they are really NOT going to like the sight of Justena sharing a sweet kiss together. As Justin and Selena left their Oscar party Sunday night and waited for their car at the valet stand, Justin leaned over and planed a sweet kiss on Selena‘s lips. While some of y’all are bound to be going Awwwww right now, I’m sure legions more are going NOOOOOOOO! Check out video of the kiss below.


You know, in the photos we saw yesterday, I thought Bieber was going to go in for a kiss considering how close his face got to Selena‘s as the flashbulbs went off. This little kiss when they thought no one was looking seems genuine and really sweet. Watch the video below to see the kiss over and over and over again:


Actually, considering the fact that Justena are already sharing hotel rooms together, I’m guessing they’ve been getting up to more than just kissing. Still, I think it’s very sweet to see this kind of cute affection between young stars. What do y’all think of this kiss? Is it cute or notsomuch?

One Man’s Trash Is Another Man’s Treasure

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 12:12 PM PST

After having completely missed out on enjoying any of Berlin in the day yesterday, David and I rebounded nicely last night. We made our way out to White Trash Fast Food restaurant because we heard they have the best burgers in town … and I can report that that is VERY true. I can’t even express how much awesome they have packed into that fairly sizable eatery. This morning, we ventured out for breakfast and city exploring … but with our big Kylie Minogue concert tonight, I’m having a hard time focusing on much of anything.


We had heard about White Trash Fast Food before we got to Berlin and then on the advice of a Pink reader, we decided to check it out. The place is a haven of German hipsters that is a restaurant, bar, club, performance space and tattoo parlor all in one. I know it sounds nuts but it’s really, really fun. You’d think a place that sounds so gimmicky would have terrible food … and you’d be wrong. David had the most amazing burger ever (goat cheese!) and I had the best baby back ribs I’ve eaten in years. The drinks were strong, tasty and inexpensive. What I wouldn’t give to be able to photograph all of the fun little things they have on display in that place but … well … maybe another time. We loved White Trash Fast Food so much we may go back for one of their White Diamond club nights ;)

Today, we got up early and ventured out into the city. We wanted to do a bit of exploring and just enjoy the city:


My breakfast consisted of a plate FULL of German meats … and it was delish. David had a more traditional meal. The rest of our morning was spent shopping, tho neither of us really found anything that we wanted to buy. Because we are seeing Kylie Minogue at the O2 World arena tonight for her Les Folies 2011 Tour, I was anxious about getting my day’s work done so we could get to the venue in plenty of time to pick up our VIP Splash Zone tickets!!! OMG, I’m SO excited for tonight … I can’t even tell you. I’ll do my best to take as many photos as possible but I won’t be able to post any of them while I’m there … unless I find a wifi network. Kylie in a few hours … I’m so excited.

I love you Berlin!

X-Men: First Class Releases 2 New Promo Posters

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 10:10 AM PST

Last month we got to see a batch of promo photos for the upcoming prequel film X-Men: First Class, then earlier this month we got to see the film’s first movie trailer. Today we get to see the first promo posters to be released for the film. In these first two posters, we get to see Charles Xavier (before he became Professor X) and Erik Lehnsherr (before he became Magneto).


I am LOVING these posters. I love that the standing characters as they will be featured in the film are reflected in the water with the future versions of themselves as we know them in the previous X-Men films. As I’ve said many times before, I’m not a big fan of films set in the past (I particularly loathe period pieces) but I am actually very excited to see the world of X-Men as it existed back in the swinging 60′s. Thus far, I’ve been very impressed with the promo for this film … let’s hope the film turns out just as good.

Neil Patrick Harris, David Burtka & The Twins Take A Family Trip

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 09:08 AM PST

Neil Patrick Harris, his hubby David Burtka and the couple’s twin babies Harper Grace & Gideon Scott were spotted at LAX Airport ready to embark on what I presume is the family’s first flight together! Neil and the fam are hittin’ the road so they can promote his new film Beastly (which stars Vanessa Hudgens and Alex Pettyfer). As you can see in the photos below, David was charged with carrying Gideon while the nanny carried Harper … and NPH looked on adoringly.

This time last year he had just performed the opening number at the Academy Awards. But last night Neil Patrick Harris avoided the Hollywood madness and instead jetted out of Los Angeles with partner David Burtka and their children. The couple were spotted at the airport terminal with very precious cargo – their five-month-old twins Harper Grace and Gideon Scott. The 37-year-old How I Met Your Mother star carried the luggage while a nanny helped David with the pair’s son and daughter. ‘Happy Oscar Sunday!’ Harris tweeted earlier in the day exactly one year after he opened the show at the Oscars. ‘I’m grateful that I’ll be watching from my living room this year, and not hyperventilating offstage, about to perform.’ But during the show the family headed to the airport to jet off on the promotional tour for Neil’s new movie Beastly, alongside Vanessa Hudgens and Alex Pettyfer. Neil and David, 35, who is also an actor, welcomed the fraternal twins in October via a surrogate. Harris recently revealed that the couple have found a playdate partner for their son and daughter in the form of Elton John and David Furnish’s son Zachary. ‘Elton and David came to our house for Zachary's first play date a couple weeks back,’ Neil said. ‘They're great guys. They're super great parents. They're so fiercely involved in their son's life and it's really kind of great to watch them interact with him.’

OMG … will you look at those CHEEKS!! OY! So cute. I can’t even imagine what it must be like to fly with babies … it’s difficult enough to deal with air travel when all you have to do is lug around your luggage. Not only do babies add to the stuff you have to carry but they are also things you have to carry as well. It looks like Neil and David are pros, tho … having a nanny along for the ride can’t hurt either. Isn’t this just the cutest family ever? Love them!!

Watch: ‘Extra!’ TV Releases A Preview Video Of Their Interview With Lindsay Lohan

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 08:01 AM PST

Last weekend we learned that Lindsay Lohan has given her first post-rehab interview to Extra! TV and tonight and tomorrow night the interview will be aired in full. Right now, tho, we get to see a short clip from Lindsay‘s chat with Extra! and, surprise of surprises, she sounds coherent and actually seems to be taking responsibility for her actions. Of course, this could be a matter of lip service in order to look good in the press but when compared to the crazy train that Charlie Sheen has been riding thru Hollywood in the past few days, she is lookin’ like a saint in this interview. Check out the clip below.

Lindsay Lohan must love Charlie Sheen a whole lot. The actor has dominated the tabloid media today, taking the heat off Lohan for a spell at least. In her only interview since leaving rehab, Lohan breaks her silence and tells "Extra's" Jerry Penacoli about her time in treatment, her plans to save her career, and her new life. Lohan invited "Extra" inside her new home in Los Angeles for a revealing conversation. Lohan tells "Extra" she is anxious to work again but knows she has to regain Hollywood's trust. "I need to prove that I can be insurable again, because I don't think I am right now." Lohan takes full responsibility for her missteps. "I'm focusing on the one thing I need to put first in my life which is my recovery and stuff. I'm doing good and that's most important for me." For the complete interview with Lindsay Lohan tune-in to 'Extra' on Tuesday, March 1 and Wednesday, March 2!

I deffo thinks she gives good answers here and I have no doubt she will continue to give good answers in the rest of the interview … but Lindsay has given “good answers” before and still hasn’t seem to have learned her lesson. Check out the clip and see what you think of her responses:


She sounds like a changed woman, don’t she? That’s what worries me … cuz I’ve thought that before. Still, she seems to have plans to rebuild her career on her mind because she has decided to get herself a new agent:

Lindsay Lohan wants to jumpstart her career now that she’s out of rehab and ready to work — and TMZ has learned, her first step was to dump her old agent … and sign with someone else. According to sources close to Lindsay, she cut all ties with her former agency CAA a couple weeks ago — telling friends it was the best way to start fresh. Linds is currently in talks with WME — another powerhouse agency — and already has members of Britney Spears’ current management team in her pocket, including Larry Rudolph and Lou Taylor.

It’s smart of Lindsay to try and get Britney‘s people to help her … if anyone can help revive her career, it’s Britney‘s team of magicians. Still … there’s the matter of that felony grand theft charge hanging over Lindsay‘s head. These PR interviews can’t save here on that regard. If she manages to get out of trubs without having to go to jail, then she is very smartly laying the groundwork for a return to showbiz. Let’s see if her gambit will pay off … and see if she can stay out of trubs. What do y’all think? Is Lindsay a changed woman? Do you believe that she is contrite as she comes across in this interview clip?

Christina Aguilera Busted!

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 06:43 AM PST

TMZ is reporting that Christina Aguilera and her new boyfriend Matthew Rutler were arrested in West Hollywood, CA early this morning both for being drunk. Xtina was busted on a misdemeanor of public intoxication while Matt was busted on the seemingly more serious charge of drunk driving. Dang!

Christina Aguilera was arrested early this morning along with her boyfriend in West Hollywood, TMZ has learned. Christina was popped for public intoxication and her boyfriend was arrested for driving under the influence. Aguilera was arrested at 2:45 AM and booked at the West Hollywood Sheriff’s substation on a misdemeanor charge. On the booking report, Aguilera was listed at 5’2″ and 100 pounds. Aguilera’s 25-year-old boyfriend Matthew Rutler was also arrested last night at the same time for a misdemeanor offense. According to the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department, Rutler’s bail was set at $30,000. Law enforcement sources tell us Aguilera appeared to be “extremely intoxicated” and was “unable to take care of herself.” However, the source adds, “If the driver had NOT been arrested for DUI, [Christina] would have never been in trouble.” Sources close to Xtina tell us they have been trying to get the singer into a rehab program for weeks.

Oh snap! It looks like Xtina is serious about having a downfall of her own. Haven’t we been hearing for weeks about her hard partying and out of control drinking? Remember that story in January about Xtina passing out drunk in Jeremy Renner‘s bed at his birthday party? Of course, her people denied that any such thing happened but … c’mon. Homegirl has been stumbling out of bars drunk for a while now. She has managed to stay out of trubs and, as far as I know, this is her first arrest. But … from what I’ve been hearing, Xtina has been sinking more and more into unhealthy behavior … ever since she hooked up with Rutler who, if this report is to be believed, can really be blamed for her arrest. It remains to be seen if this is just a bump in the road or if it’s a sign of the new and degrading Xtina Aguilera.

Watch: Charlie Sheen Chats With TMZ, Then His Publicist Quits

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 06:06 AM PST

Yesterday we got to see a pretty crazy interview from Charlie Sheen on The Today Show ahead of the planned airing of his interview with 20/20 tonight … but there was a lot more crazy to come from Sheen as the day progressed. Sheen paid a visit to TMZ to sit down and chat with them … which resulted in his longtime publicist Stan Rosenfield to quit representing him. An angry Sheen then refused to let him quit so that he could fire him instead. Then Sheen went on Piers Morgan Tonight to bring some more crazy, all while his lawyers started legal proceedings against CBS. Homeboy is on a roll, y’all … a C-R-A-Z-Y roll.

Charlie Sheen just wrapped up a LIVE no holds barred interview with Mike Walters from the backyard of his L.A. mansion — ripping more people than ever … and even accepting some blame himself. Sheen blasted CBS honcho Les Moonves for not firing “Men” creator Chuck Lorre … and then scoffed at the studio for giving him wayyyy too much money.

Sheen also ripped a false report that he checked himself into rehab this morning — because he obviously isn’t at a rehab facility — and the at-home interview is all the proof he needs. Among the hits – Charlie explained that he "hopes" his five kids ask him about all of the drug use one day … so he can fill them in on all of the "epic" stories. Sheen also explained that his father, Martin Sheen, should stop passing judgment, because Charlie's a grown ass man … and can make his own life choices. Charlie also told a story about how he woke up in the middle of downtown L.A. by himself when he was 7 years old … and had to find his own way home.

As crazy as Sheen‘s interview with TMZ was, he was surprisingly coherent and lucid in this portion of the interview:


You can watch the entire TMZ interview HERE. It’s worth your time, if you have the time to spare for more of Charlie Sheen‘s rantings and ravings. Clearly, Sheen‘s now ex-publicist Stan Rosenfield doesn’t have any more time for him … because after his interview with TMZ, he quit:

Charlie Sheen’s longtime publicist has quit … Stan Rosenfield tells TMZ … he’s resigning because “I worked with Charlie Sheen for a long time and I care about him very much, however, at this time, I’m unable to work effectively as his publicist and have respectfully resigned.” Stan resigned minutes after Sheen appeared on live on TMZ this morning … where Charlie insinuated that Stan lied to the media on his behalf regarding the hotel trashing incident at The Plaza hotel in NYC back in October. Stan had issued a statement saying Charlie was hospitalized that night for an “allergic reaction.” When Mike Walters asked Charlie about the medical explanation, CL responded, “I was asleep when that statement went out.” Sheen added, “I respect Stan … he was doing the best he could in that moment … had I confirmed with him, I probably would have come up with something better.”


After Rosenfield‘s resignation, an angry Sheen went on the offensive to shoot back and try and “fire” the man after he already quit:

Charlie Sheen is PISSED at his former publicist Stan Rosenfield — telling TMZ, “P**sy. He’s not allowed to quit, so you're fired.”

And then Charlie went on Piers Morgan Tonight to chat some more. Here is video of some of his best bits from that interview:


And while all of this stuff was happening in front of the cameras, Sheen‘s lawyers — headed by Marty Singer — fired off a letter to CBS threatening legal action against them on behalf of crazy Charlie. Here are excerpts of that letter:

"This action is outrageous and in direct violation of our client's legal rights, including under the contract between our client and Warner Bros. Television with regard to Two and a Half Men ("the Series"). Our client is entitled to be paid for eight additional episodes under his contract on the Series. Furthermore, my client is clean and sober and has passed every drug test requested. In fact, he took passing tests this weekend. He (Sheen) intends to hold Warner Bros. fully accountable for the compensation owed on his contract and to hold Warner Bros. and CBS fully accountable for all of the consequences of their actions … if Sheen is not paid for eight remaining episodes this season, our client intends to bring appropriate legal action against Warner Bros., as well as against Mr. Lorre… There is no justification for the Series to be shut down at this time. It is clear that this action is the result of interference by Chuck Lorre with our client's contractual rights. It is most unfortunate that Warner Bros. and CBS have conspired with Mr. Lorre in his tortuous and outrageous conduct in permitting him to shut down the show, thereby damaging many individuals and companies, in addition to our client."

And this is just a short summation of the stuff that transpired — yesterday afternoon/evening! Charlie Sheen is, apparently, willing to talk to any and everyone in order to spread his message far and wide. The Today Show is airing part 2 of their interview today, 20/20 is still planning to air their interview tonight … and I’m certain Sheen is lining up other interviews with anyone who asks. To be honest, all of this stuff is starting to run together. Sheen‘s gonna have to amp up the crazy if he wants to grab headlines from his headlines. Ugh … watch him do do that.

First Look: Britney Spears In ‘V’ Magazine

Posted: 01 Mar 2011 05:01 AM PST

A few weeks ago it was reported that Britney Spears posed for Mario Testino for a new photoshoot. It was speculated that the shoot was for the album artwork for Britney‘s upcoming new album Femme Fatale. It turns out, instead, that the shoot was for an upcoming cover feature for V magazine! E! News brings us our first look at the tri-fold cover and magazine spread along with a few quotes from the coverstory article. According to our dear Britney herself, “The Bitch is back and better than before.”


Altho the caps are kinda grainy, I think we still get a very good feel for the overall shoot. I’m not always crazy about using one color overlay like this for shoots but it does give the photos a Spring/Eastery feel to them. Brit Brit looks beautiful … there is no question, she always cleans up very nicely. Here is video from the E! News report that features these photos:


Oh yeah, this magazine is a deffo must own. I love that V magazine is oversized, because these photos will look all that much better in person. I seem to recall that V magazine spreads are also very long … hopefully there will be a many more photos than are just featured here.

In other Britney news, a new promo photo has surfaced in a new billboard that was snapped … somewhere in the world. I have no idea where these billboards are going on display but the photo is an amazing one:


To be honest, I much prefer this promo photo to the one that is being used for the Femme Fatale album cover. Brit looks sultry and sexy … she looks amazing. I’m anxious for her to start doing actual promo for the album … but these first promo photos and magazine spreads are a nice place to start. What do y’all think … hot, right?
