Posted: 20 May 2011 11:31 AM PDT If you’ve been following the Hunger Games casting decisions on Twitter, chances are you’ve caught the #CinnaWatch2011 hashtag. A pivotal character, Katniss’ main stylist Cinna follows the maxim that “Clothes make the (wo)man”: The outfits he dreams up help Katniss appear sympathetic or powerful depending on who she needs to impress. But so far, no one has been announced to play the role in Lionsgate’s movie, not even some frontrunners. Check out our gallery of who could play Cinna, plus find out more about Brooke Bundy and Latarsha Rose, who have been cast as other Capitol stylists who transform Katniss and Peeta. Rose has had bit roles on shows like Bones, All My Children, and CSI: Miami. Portia is Peeta’s stylist, but she works alongside Cinna to conceptualize the tributes’ matching outfits. It is this duo that comes up with the fire imagery that so captivates the Capitol audience. Interestingly, Portia is never described in detail, even though the other stylists all have crazy hair, skin, and accessories. By contrast, Octavia is described as having dyed her skin a pea-green color, and if I remember correctly, she’s got a bevy of intricate hairstyles. She’ll be played by Bundy, who is also a relative unknown. She actually went to NYU with my former coworker Anna Breslaw, who writes a glowing profile here. But now that most of the District 12 tributes’ prep team has been announced, we need our Cinna! Here are a few possible actors who could fill the stylist’s fashionable shoes: Post from: Crushable |
Sex on the Wire: Couples Can’t Communicate Posted: 20 May 2011 11:18 AM PDT • A new study says couples’ communication skills aren’t any better than strangers’ communication skills. Uplifting! (MyDaily) • Can a marriage survive a lovechild? Arnold Schwarzenegger’s illegitimate son weighs in (just kidding). (Betty Confidential) • Are you always scaring guys away? Stop doing that! (YourTango) • Ryan Gosling has sexy stubble! In addition to sexy absolutely everything else. (Celebuzz) • Apparently Jesse James regretted marrying Sandra Bullock from the beginning. Not enough tattoos, probably. (Celeb Dirty Laundry) Post from: Crushable |
Questionable Choices: Track Palin’s Wedding Photo Posted: 20 May 2011 11:19 AM PDT Sarah Palin‘s oldest child, Track Palin, just got married. Track, unlike his sister Bristol Palin, has mostly stayed out of the spotlight, although he did make a cameo in mom’s Sarah Palin’s Alaska reality show. Track just got hitched to longtime girlfriend Britta Hanson. While they both look really cute and happy in this photo and there didn’t seem to be any TV cameras at the ceremony, I have to wonder if fleeces were really appropriate wedding attire. Yeah, I know it’s cold in Alaska even in May, but why not have an indoor ceremony so that you won’t freeze to death in your tux? The boutonniere-on-fleece look isn’t really screaming “wedding” to me.

Randy ‘Macho Man’ Savage Dies the Same Day a Slim Jim Plant Closes Posted: 20 May 2011 10:40 AM PDT Pro wrestler Randy Savage, best known by his nickname Macho Man, has died. The 58-year-old reportedly suffered a heart attack while driving and crashed his car into a tree. Memorials and fanpages are already springing up online, with some fans musing that Savage’s death was a final harbinger before tomorrow’s expected rapture. However, there’s one other possible correlation: a Slim Jim plant in Garner, NC (home of American Idol finalist Scotty McCreery) is closing today. Maybe Macho Man couldn’t bear to live in a world without his favorite food? I can completely identify. Post from: Crushable Randy ‘Macho Man’ Savage Dies the Same Day a Slim Jim Plant Closes |
The Daily WTF: Banana Waffle Burrito, You Guys Posted: 20 May 2011 10:34 AM PDT “Burrito” is misleading here: this is banana, whipped cream and custard inside of a waffle. Maybe a better name is Banana Waffle Surprise. As in: you thought you were about to eat a delicious waffle, but surprise!, it’s actually a food item even more amazing than you could have possibly imagined. Someone please make this for us immediately. (via Best Week Ever) Post from: Crushable |
I Hate Justin Timberlake Except When He’s On ‘Saturday Night Live’ Posted: 20 May 2011 10:02 AM PDT This weekend is Saturday Night Live‘s season finale, and the host/musical guest is regular visitor Justin Timberlake. I’m totally on board with this idea, because Justin’s regular bits on SNL – from the Barry Gibb Talk Show to his recurring sketches with Andy Samberg – are hilarious. I’m also totally on board with this because Justin Timberlake is annoying doing everything that isn’t SNL. I was never an ‘N Sync fan, I was bored to tears by Justin’s fakelationship with Jessica Biel, and I am not at all amused by Justin’s repeated attempts to be a Serious Actor Person in forgettable movies like Alpha Dog. (Yes, I know he was in The Social Network, but he chewed so much scenery I was scared he would also eat Jesse Eisenberg and the movie would end early.) Even his solo music, while fun to dance to, did nothing for me. And if I was forced to choose between “Dick In a Box” and “Cry Me a River,” the video where Justin isn’t making pouty faces and subtly trashing Britney Spears while purporting to take the high road would lose every. single. time. Every time I watch a Justin Timberlake music video, I think that he is trying really, really hard to be cool. But on SNL, he’s able to relax and be a goofball – which, I suspect, is actually his true nature. Being on SNL frees him up to just be weird and make jokes without having to dress in head-to-toe leather or put product in his hair. And on SNL he also shows a remarkable ability to laugh at himself, which stands in stark contrast to the press junkets and interviews he does promoting his films, where he stiffens up and tries to act like a serious thespian. If I had my way, JT would be a full-time cast member on Saturday Night Live and quit it with all the Mr. Cool nonsense. Justin, remember that brilliant sketch you did making fun of Ashton Kutcher, where you just wore a Von Dutch hat and jumped up and down screaming “I’M ASHTON KUTCHER AND I’M AWESOME”? That sketch was dead-on, and it encapsulated exactly why Ashton is such a douche. You don’t want to be a douche like him, Justin, do you? Now go make me another “Motherlover” sketch and we can put all of this nonsense behind us. Post from: Crushable I Hate Justin Timberlake Except When He’s On ‘Saturday Night Live’ |

Video: Watch Haley Reinhart’s Final ‘American Idol’ Performance Posted: 20 May 2011 09:55 AM PDT We’re sincerely sad to see Haley Reinhart go: the raspy-voiced Midwesterner was eliminated on last night’s episode of American Idol, and she went out with this stellar rendition of “Benny and the Jets.” So now it’s a Lauren Alaina and Scotty McCreery finale. Sigh. Post from: Crushable Video: Watch Haley Reinhart’s Final ‘American Idol’ Performance |
