Brad Pitt Says He Will Retire From Acting In Three Years

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 11:30 AM PST

Brad Pitt, of the Morally Superior Jolie-Pitts, seems to have taken his character in Benjamin Button to heart, in that he’s living his life in a reverse order to most people. Unlike many who leave their families in pursuit of fame and fortune, Brad Pitt would like to quit acting in movies so he can have/adopt yet more children with genetically perfect partner Angelina Jolie.

Okay, so those two things don’t have a direct causal relationship, but they nevertheless seem somewhat related. In a recent interview with Australia’s 60 Minutes, Pitt said he only plans to keep acting for three more years. When asked what he’s going to do after that, he said this:

Hell if I know. Hell if I know. I am really enjoying the producing side and development of stories and putting those pieces together. And getting stories to the plate that might have had a tougher time otherwise, so…You know, I have gotten away with a few things in writing and I have been pissed off about a few things. How's that?

The 47-year-old actor and father of six also said he and his 36-year-old partner are probably not yet finished having/obtaining children:

Uh, you know, I don't know that we're finished. I don't know yet. I don't know.

Is this because Brad Pitt is afraid of dying alone? Probably, but he’s also way into those awesome sleepless nights you’re blessed with when there’s a baby around:

TARA BROWN: And trying to get some sleep and…?

BRAD: Yeah, sleep is a foregone conclusion in our home. But…later. Not that interested. I mean, because those late nights are so fun when one of them's up or those mornings when they get up and make pancakes or something. That's what it's about.

TARA BROWN: You enjoy the chaos?

BRAD: Well, obviously.

Do you hear that, everyone? Brangelina is addicted to having babies! Someone get Dr. Drew on the case before they turn into a glamorous, racially diverse version of The Duggars.

Video: Here Is A Fancy Horse Dancing To ‘Lil Kim

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 11:12 AM PST

This here is my new number one top favorite thing. Some Danish dork named Andreas Helgstrand performed this apparently first-rate dressage (“horse ballet”) routine, and some totally cool, non-dorky person cut the video to a ‘Lil Kim song. The result: the world’s most amazing equine hip hop dancer.

Doesn’t this kind of play out like a Center Stage-style climax scene? When the prim and proper ballerina incorporates ballet into her routine and totally blows all the stodgy judges out of the water? We’re eagerly awaiting a follow-up video featuring this horse’s love interest, a wild stallion from the wrong side of the… um… tractors.

A Closer Look At The Dentristry In The Iron Lady Trailer

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 10:28 AM PST

The UK Iron Lady trailer was released today, giving us a two and-a-half minute long look at Meryl Streep as the former English Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. To us Americans, The Iron Lady promises to give us a nice history lesson in British politics, British gender relations and, most importantly, the infamous British dental hygiene. Here’s a look at what’s in store for us, teeth-wise.

1. Here we have the first shot of young Margaret Thatcher, played by newcomer Alexandra Roach. Alexandra wore prosthetic teeth

2. Ah, young Denis Thatcher, played by Harry Lloyd, is the very picture of British dentistry.

3. The first shot of Meryl as Margaret, with false teeth to cover up her own perfect pearlies.

4. Jim Broadbent playing older Denis. Can you tell he’s a Brit?

5. A closer look — note the gap. (Mind it, also.)

6. Young Margaret really lets us have it with that grin!

Charlize Theron Admires Kristen Stewart’s Carefree Attitude, Can’t Wait To Steal Her Beauty

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 10:38 AM PST



In the December issue of Vogue, there’s a rather flattering profile of Charlize Theron in which she thoroughly charms the writer by (among other things) taking him hiking with her dogs and making him a mix tape. It’s packed to the brim with celebrity profile clichés, not the least of which is “say something nice about an actress younger than you,” but I still think what she says about her Snow White and the Huntsman co-star Kristen Stewart is pretty sweet:

Kristen is just living this [fame] to the max and still has a sense of humor about it. There's this really lovely quality about her that just doesn't give a fuck. A lot of people say they don't, but then they go home and cry and pop a Xanax. Kristen actually doesn't give a fuck. That's what's so refreshing about her. I'm looking forward to killing her and taking her beauty.

I’m assuming that last part was in reference to the movie, but then again, maybe not! Anyway, it seems like this is true about K-Stew, and that’s why I’m willing to give her a “you don’t annoy me” pass most of the time despite the fact that she owes her fame and fortune to a series of objectively terrible abstinence commercials. I mean, come on. Girlfriend gets her smoke on in her pajamas like she hasn’t a care in the world:

Then again, weed is basically the teenage version of Xanax, so maybe she’s not quite as carefree as Theron thinks.

CMT’s Reel Love: The Highlights Reel

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 09:50 AM PST

In CMT’s subpar TV movie Reel Love, Holly Whitman (LeAnn Rimes) is a strong career gal — a lawyer, to be exact — who treks the nine hours back to her small town when her dad (Burt Reynolds) has a heart attack. Even though she’s estranged from her country bumpkin family, some confluence of her boyfriend being a dick and the annual fish fry remind her of how sweet and simple home is.

Not to worry, we sat through Reel Love so you don’t have to. In our Highlights Reel, watch LeAnn regain her country accent and use fishing as a metaphor for love! (But not how you think.)

Crushable Presents: Kyle MacLachlan’s Face, Meme-i-fied

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 10:24 AM PST

Did you know that actor Kyle MacLachlan (of Twin Peaks and Portlandia fame) makes wine? I didn’t, so when I saw this Gilt Groupe ad for his sweet, sweet nectar last Friday, I nearly lost my shit. There he was, just peering through the leaves as if to say, “OHAI, Diane. Agent Dale Cooper here. I just made you some delicious wine, NBD, perhaps you’d like to drink it.” It wasn’t long before a few folks on Tumblr turned this ridiculous picture into a meme by ‘shopping him into places where he didn’t belong (OR DID HE?), and we wanted to get in on the fun. I have yet to meet a meme that can’t be improved by his gracefully aging, handsome, wise, wonderful, glorious face.

George Clooney Considered Suicide After An Injury On The Syriana Set

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 09:07 AM PST

Oh boy, here’s your grim news of the day: During the filming of Syriana in 2005, George Clooney suffered spinal injuries from a stunt gone wrong that were so severe, he began to have thoughts of suicide. In an interview with Rolling Stone, George laid out the extent of his bad situation:

“I was at a point where I thought, ‘I can’t exist like this. I can’t actually live.’ I was lying in a hospital bed with an IV in my arm, unable to move, having these headaches where it feels like you’re having a stroke, and for a short three-week period, I started to think, ‘I may have to do something drastic about this.’”


Fortunately, George ended up undergoing a successful surgery to heal his spine before he took drastic measures. In the interview, he explains that his method of choice would have been the car-in-the-garage, so the actor could have avoided a mess. Yikes.

George was injured again two years later, when he and then-girlfriend Sarah Larson were in a motorcycle accident in New Jersey. George’s injuries were less severe this time around, but you’ve got to wonder what the guy was doing on a bike. Once a risk taker, always a risk taker?

This Twilight Spoof Poster Starring Taylor Lautner Is The Best

Posted: 14 Nov 2011 08:43 AM PST

To celebrate the release of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, Part 1 this week, NextMovie has inserted eternal lovers Bella and Edward into the movie posters for love stories like Casablanca and The Notebook. But this one, spoofing My Best Friend’s Wedding, is by far my favorite of the bunch. What masterful Photoshopping—not to mention Taylor Lautner‘s goofy Julia Roberts smirk and how well the movie actually fits with Jacob’s plot in the last book.

Now if only we could get Taylor to sing “I Say A Little Prayer for You” at Bella and Edward’s nuptials. Shirtless, of course.
