| Justin Timberlake & Mila Kunis flirt it up for Elle Mag: cute or meh? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 08:56 AM PDT
Elle Magazine decided to do what Marie Claire has been doing for most of the year - putting costar pairs on their cover. This time it's Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake, stars of the soon-to-be-released film Friends With Benefits. You can see the photoshoot and assorted interview excerpts here, at Elle. I like the photos, even if I think JT looks kind of like a goober. Mila rarely takes a bad photo, and together they're trying to sell some sex appeal and stuff. I'm not sure it works - it kind of feels like they're two friends just play-acting the romance stuff. Maybe that's because I figure JT wanted Mila desperately and she denied him, so JT crawled back to Jessica Biel. Here are some highlights from the interview:
[From Elle Magazine's press release] I wonder who JT was having sex with when his mom walked in? Britney? I hope it wasn't Cameron Diaz. Ugh. And Mila's older-dude crushes are Clooney and Depp? Oh, God. The Depp crush doesn't bother me, but please don't let Clooney hear that an young, attractive brunette with a cute figure has a crush on him. Clooney will be on that like white on rice.

| Meryl Streep rules Britannia in ‘The Iron Lady’: does she pull it off? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 08:20 AM PDT
So… another Oscar nomination for Meryl Streep? Why not? This might even be the role that gets her another Oscar, her first in decades. Previously, we've discussed Meryl accepting the role as Margret Thatcher, the former prime minister of Britain (and the first lady to hold the position). Meryl's casting caused something of a controversy for several reasons - she's an American, her politics are quite liberal, and the film was going to show some of Thatcher's current condition, which some consider very disrespectful. Anyway, we've now got the first teaser trailer and it is… pretty good. I think Meryl's accent work is bang-on, as they say.
I guess my only complaint is that I would have hoped that the first clip would have dealt with Thatcher doing something stronger, more political than talking about hats and pearls. Thatcher was a ball-buster who once told George H.W. Bush "Don’t go wobbly on me, George" on the eve of the Persian Gulf War. I hope the film does justice to the side of Thatcher that was a completely political animal.

| Is Ben Affleck’s gambling addiction ruining his marriage to Jennifer Garner? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 07:49 AM PDT
A couple of weeks ago, Star Magazine and Radar had a pretty decent scoop on the hush-hush underground poker games going down with A-list Hollywood. Tobey Maguire, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon and Leonardo DiCaprio were all listed as attendees of these high-stakes, high-losses poker games, which might result in multiple lawsuits and perhaps even a federal investigation. From what I could see, Star and Radar had actually done some footwork and investigative journalism to get the story, but they exploited the fact that all of these A-list men were partaking, and there were a series of denials and such. Who knows how it's going to turn out? BUT! The gambling story still has legs, especially for Ben Affleck, who in 2001 was treated for his gambling addiction. After his rehab stay, he also claimed that he had given up alcohol, although there are persistent rumors that he's still boozing (with photo evidence). So Star Magazine's cover story this week includes the Garner-Affleck marriage in its trilogy of marriage problems. According to Star, Jennifer Garner "had no idea" that Affleck was back to drinking and gambling away millions of dollars. An insider tells the mag, "Jennifer is terrified that his history of gambling, drinking and womanizing is catching up with him… If things get worse, Jen could be a single mom." Star's source also says that Ben is telling friends that Jennifer "busted his balls" when she found out, and a "card shark" who played with Affleck says: "As we gambled, [Ben] would joke with us that he’d told Jen he was going to an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. He’d say, ‘I’ve got to get home to the wife before she figures out where I am.’” Meanwhile, in the new issue of Star (according to Radar), sources also claim that at one point, Ben owed $400,000 to a "powerful movie mogul" - Ron Meyer, Tobey Maguire's father-in-law. There are also claims that Ben even "hosted" his own underground poker game (referred to as "Ben's Game") at the Grand Havana Room in Beverly Hills, a high-end cigar club, back in 2003, and that Jennifer Lopez knew about it and wasn't happy about it. The games would later move to Prego Ristorante, and that's where Ben lost $400K to Meyer: “Ben busted big. He drummed up a giant tab, and then all of a sudden he disappeared from the game. He wasn’t seen for months. He’d had a string of bad movies and didn’t have any big projects on the horizon, and everyone was wondering, ‘Is Ben broke?’ But we knew that he couldn’t stiff a businessman like Ron Meyer. That would be ‘career over’ in Hollywood. Suicide. Eventually, Ron got paid and Ben started turning up to the games again.” For the record, Affleck's rep went to Gossip Cop and "assured" them that the story is "false" and all "lies" and then the rep pointed to these photos of Ben and Jennifer's Fourth of July, almost like those pics were a candid photo shoot designed specifically for damage control…? No, they would never! DIMPLES. Just look at the dimples.

| Anne Hathaway in cream & silver Valentino: princess-pretty or ghostly? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 07:10 AM PDT
Anne Hathaway is still in France, like she was yesterday, when she was the guest of honor at the Valentino show. These are pics from last night's White Fairy Tale Love Ball at the Chateau de Wideville in Crespieres, France. I believe she was the guest of honor at this event as well, and she posed for photos with Valentino, who looks like a gigantic ham. Is it just me? Am I just hungry? Anyway, Anne is wearing Valentino, of course. I've talked about this issue I have with pale girls wearing white before, and I specifically remember bringing it up with Anne before - she looks washed out when she wears white and cream. And she's ALWAYS wearing white for formal events or red carpets. The affect tends towards ghostly and corpsey, and it's totally unnecessary, considering Anne looks amazing in jewel tones, as we know. All of that being said… I like the dress. I like that Anne is styled like a princess-fairy. It's a cute effect, overall.
When we were talking about Anne's mob widow style yesterday, a lot of pointed out that something weird is happening with her nose. I agree! I'm not saying "Bitch got tweaked" - at all. If anything, her nose looks larger than before. I have a theory, and it's kind of mean. Remember when Ashlee Simpson got her nose job, and then years later, people started saying that her old nose was growing back? I wonder if that's happening to Anne. Like, she got tweaked years ago, and her old, original nose is slowly creeping back. Or it could just be a deviated septum.

| Kelly Osbourne with a face full of lipstick after a night out Posted: 07 Jul 2011 06:40 AM PDT
In recent news about Kelly, she got turned away at first from the backstage area at a Pulp concert over the weekend. Alexa Chung had to convince security to let Kelly in. Ouch. Many “Common People” jokes were inevitably made. Kelly had an answer to that too, tweeting “in a mood because that story about alexa having 2 get me backstage is such B.S and makes me look desperate id rather be in the crowd anyway!” The pictures suggest otherwise, but whatever.
I would say that at least Kelly isn’t in a fight with someone over twitter or otherwise, but she did bark back at a dude who suggested that she didn’t need to work because she’s famous. She tweeted “that has f*ck all 2 do with it you ignorant twat sorry you have no ambition but i do and i worked f’ing hard 4 this so piss off!,” following up later with “it must suck that you mind is as small as your penis!” That was a decent comeback, she should have used that one first. He should have followed up with “you should know.”
Update: A lot of you have mentioned that this guy is supposedly dating Taylor Momsen. That’s a curious match.

| Duchess Kate wears her favorite J Brand jeans again: cute or under-dressed? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 06:33 AM PDT
Yesterday, after Prince William and Duchess Kate got finished with their camping trip (in which Kate merely looked at solid food and shivered), they headed to an Alberta town called Slave Lake. Slave Lake had a wildfire in May, and parts of the town were left devastated. There was still fire damage for William and Kate to examine, and they met with locals and were generally pleasant. I think this was an "unscheduled" stop, but I'm not sure how that goes, what with all of the security and press and such. I'm pretty sure Kate is wearing the same pair of jeans that she wore for her camping trip - she just seems to have changed up the top part, wearing a frilly blouse and a navy jacket (I think the jacket is the same one from last week…?). The Mail says Kate really has been wearing the same pair of J Brand jeans for days straight. I'm not going to judge her for having a favorite pair of jeans, or for wearing the same pair several days in a row, because I've done that (and continue to do that) too. I will judge her slightly because I don't find these jeans to be a particularly flattering cut on her figure. She has a boyish, lithe little figure with no hips whatsoever - she could find a really great pair of jeans that wouldn't make her look so… I don't know. Twig-like? Am I the only one who remembers Kate's healthy, athletic figure just a few years ago? Oh, and the wedges are Nine West. I can't believe she's wearing Nine West shoes! That's kind of amazing. She really is a duchess on a budget.

| Casey Anthony Juror: “Not guilty doesn’t mean innocent” (update: to be released 7/13) Posted: 07 Jul 2011 05:14 AM PDT
[From ABC News] Some other telling quotes from Ford include “It doesn’t feel good, it’s a horrible decision to have to make, but I had to do it based on the law,” and “If they want to take someone’s life they have to prove it, or else I’m a murderer too, I’m not any better.” Maybe if the prosecution wasn’t going for the death penalty it would have been easier to convict. The prosecutor Jeff Ashton, spoke with Matt Lauer on the Today Show yesterday morning, and he said that he was shocked by the not guitly verdict after less than 11 hours deliberation. He felt that they presented a clear case to the jury and that “One of the strongest pieces of evidence that we had in the case was that her actions, we felt … [were] just so completely inconsistent with just some accidental explanation for the death.” As for whether he would go after Casey’s mom Cindy for perjuring herself by trying to take the blame for the Internet searches, he said he had no idea. Ashton is retiring after this case. I’ve been overseas this summer so I have not been as exposed to this case as many of you. It looks extremely bad in that Casey lied to the police repeatedly, fabricated entire scenarios about what happened to her poor daughter and went out partying in the month after her daughter’s death. In this case I don’t think it’s fair to blame the jury for doing their job, though I know many of you will disagree. Given Casey’s behavior, she’s the one who should be blamed for this, and she will be for the rest of her life. Like Ford said, “Not guilty doesn’t mean innocent.” It’s just a shame that Casey won’t have to rot in jail for the rest of her days. After I wrote all that, People came out with a new story with details from a letter from Casey to another inmate. She wrote that she dreamt she was pregnant, has considered adopting, and that she misses mani pedis and wearing nice underwear. It made me a little sick. The Enquirer is also reporting that Casey is telling people she’s pregnant. I hope that’s a lie like so many other things that come out of this bitch’s mouth. It’s possible that Casey, who has only been convicted of four counts of lying to police, could walk free today. I guess we know how she’ll celebrate. Update: Casey was sentenced to four years in prison and fined $4,000 for her four misdemeanor charges of lying to police. She’s already served three years and her calculated release date with time off for good behavior is now July 13, next Wednesday.

| Is Angelina Jolie going to try to “steal” Justin Theroux? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 05:13 AM PDT
Yesterday, Angelina Jolie took some of her kids to the Eden Superbowl, a bowling alley in St. Julians, Malta. I believe Angelina took her kids bowling last week too, but barely anyone had photos of that visit. We only have access to these pics, where you can barely see the twins, Knox and Vivienne. If you'd like to see clearer photos, go here to INF Daily. Knox is the one throwing a tantrum, not Vivienne (who seems, historically, more prone to tantrums). Also: Knox is totally a ginger. In my mind, when Knox grows up, he will resemble Michael Fassbender. Fingers crossed. Would you like to hear the funniest story of the week? It's such a good one! According to In Touch Weekly/Hollywood Life, Angelina is trying to "steal" Jennifer Aniston's man. NO, not Brad Pitt, silly! Angelina "stole" him a long time ago, and she’s growing bored with him. In Touch actually claims that Angelina is so determined to destroy Jennifer Aniston's gentle countenance that Jolie is "searching" for a project to do with Justin Theroux. So she can STEAL HIM.
[From Hollywood Life] The story would be better/funnier if Angelina already knew Justin, or if they had already been attached to some project before the Aniston homewrecking. Suffice to say, I seriously doubt Angelina is looking to attach herself to Justin Theroux, professionally or personally. I'm not saying Angelina would flat-out refuse to work with him if offered - just that she's not actively seeking it out. Although… he is kind her type. Sort of. Angelina doesn't really have a type, but she's not afraid of some rough edges, and Theroux definitely seems like a fixer-upper.

| Jennifer Aniston’s odd appearance on ‘Inside the Actor’s Studio’ Posted: 07 Jul 2011 05:02 AM PDT
Lately, Jennifer Aniston is working very hard to shed her tabloid-shaped, “good girl” image, which I suspect is part of her publicity team’s plan to make audiences comfortable with the fact that she plays a not-so-nice character in the upcoming Horrible Bosses. Strangely enough, however, the focus of Aniston’s visit to “Inside the Actor’s Studio” (where she was accompanied by new love Justin Theroux wasn’t as much about the new movie as about rehashing the past. Again.
Well, at least she slightly acknowledges what “Friends” has done for her career, but I’d like to point out that, in my opinion, it was not “one of” her best jobs but solely “the best” job she’s ever had when one considers the indeterminable void comprising the whole of Aniston’s movie career. But still, Horrible Bosses is totally worth your hard-earned money and is totally different than any other indistingishable Aniston movie because she’s wearing a brunette wig and, therefore, deserves to be treated like Meryl Streep. Or, at the very least, like Nicole Kidman for wearing that prosthetic nose in The Hours, right? Here are the relevant clips from Aniston’s appearance on “Inside the Actor’s Studio,” and it’s rather amusing how Aniston uncontrollably commits the following offenses: (1) Plays with her hair too much; and (2) Still relies on the instant gratification of live audience reaction, which (much to Jen’s dismay) is only forthcoming when the “Clap!” notice appears. [Video clips courtesy of HuffPo] On the topic of Jen’s new movie, she reportedly plays a very villainous character who utters the “F-word” (one of them, anyway) as part of her dialogue. Of course, this seems rather inconsistent with her GLAAD Vanguard Award (presented in 2007 by Jake Gyllenhaal) for her contribution to a positive outlook in regard to alternative families and lifestyles (for her tangential association to the lesbian couple on “Friends” and for making out with Courteney Cox on Dirt). Nonetheless, she’s just an actress delivering dialogue, right?
[From Daily Beast] LMAO at the notion of Aniston as “America’s Sweetheart,” who has spent the past, what, month attempting to shed said reputation of the spurned wife by hanging with the sketchy Terry Richardson and banging a man with a 14-year live-in girlfriend. Score another point for Aniston’s PR team.

| Rumer Willis’s high-waisted hot pants: disastrous, tragic or cute? Posted: 07 Jul 2011 04:57 AM PDT
A few weeks ago, we were having a slow gossip day so I just decided to write up a little something about some photos of Rumer Willis at a club. To her credit, Rumer didn't look wasted or cracked-out or anything, and she was obviously just out with friends, having a good time, being young. I made fun of her "clubbing clothes" which I found rather tragic - booty shorts, a Van Halen shirt and some Ugg-type boots. Oh, and stringy hair. It wasn’t a good look, BUT….I would gladly see Rumer in that outfit for the rest of her days on earth rather than have to see her wear THIS ensemble ever again. DEAR GOD.
High-waisted booty shorts. Boob-revealing button-down prairie-style blouse, with one boob hanging out. Trashy heels. Stringy, gross hair. Does Rumer think she's Cameron Diaz? Even Camy Diaz looks at this and says "Eh, maybe not." Say something nice, say something nice… Rumer has a tiny little waist. I think. It might be the high-waisted monstrosities cinching everything in, though. As for the boob hanging out… I don't even know. I didn't even know Rumer's boobs were big enough to be hanging out like that. Remember when Jessica Simpson put on some weight and everyone noticed it all at once when she showed up at a chili cookoff wearing high-waisted jeans? At the time, many of us made the point: while Jessica did gain some weight, these high-waisted styles are rarely good. In fact, the only time in recent memory that I liked someone in high-waisted anything was when Katie Holmes went through a 1970s-Jackie Kennedy phase. But Katie is slim, and she's got a boyish body. Rumer does not. I wish I could style Rumer… I would make her go back to dark hair, give her a cute, choppy cut just below her chin. I would put her in low-rise jeans, pencil skirts, V-necks, and lots of jewel tones. At some point, she'll learn what looks good on her. Until then, we just have to watch in horror.
