“Blake Lively is spending the holidays in Canada with Ryan Reynolds” links Posted: 21 Dec 2011 08:38 AM PST Blake Lively is spending the holidays in Canada, with her Canadian lover, Ryan Reynolds. God, they're so boring. [LaineyGossip] |
Jessica Biel & Justin Timberlake might have gotten engaged in Wyoming Posted: 21 Dec 2011 07:58 AM PST LaineyGossip had this yesterday, and now major celebrity news outlets are running with the story as an unconfirmed rumor. Allegedly, Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have gotten engaged while vacationing in Wyoming. They have been staying at a luxury resort, and there's some gossip on Twitter that Justin proposed to her. Of course, all of this could be a figment of the imagination of Jessica's publicist.
[From Wonderwall] I don't think it should count as "five years together" when they have broken up a few times, for months at a time. How about "five years of on-and-off BS with lots of infidelities"? That sounds right. If this is true and Jessica finally got the ring… congratulations? Sure. I wonder what she really thinks that will accomplish, though. Will she get more scripts as an A-lister's wife? Ask Katie Holmes. As for Justin… ugh. I just think he's really screwed up about women, and I don't really understand it at all. Does he really think that his relationship with Jessica is healthy, and she should be his wife? I don't mean to be the wet blanket, but this whole thing seems like a disaster in the making. |
Star: Kardashian-branded items are made in Chinese sweatshops Posted: 21 Dec 2011 07:56 AM PST Well, it looks like the Kardashians are getting a heap of tabloid drama for the holidays. Kim just finished having a hissy fit over this week's National Enquirer report that she was disrespectful and nasty to poor people in Haiti, and now Radar has released this week's Star Magazine cover, which I'm sure will cause even more famewhore dramz. Star claims that the Kardashians are using sweatshops to make their various Kardashian products, and now a human rights group is basically calling out the Kardashians for using "slave labor."
[From Radar] Once again, I'm not going to defend the Kardashians, but I doubt that the Kardashian brand is the only company to use Chinese sweatshop labor. That doesn't make it right, and of course, the Kardashians should know better and they should rectify the situation and demand that production should be moved to a country with stronger labor laws. But child labor is an enormous problem in China, in India, and in many developing countries. The exploitation is widespread and it will continue unabated without movement from governments, international businesses and watchdog groups. It's a tragedy that poor Chinese children are being exploited so that people can buy Kardashian Krap, just as it's a tragedy that so much of what Wal-Mart sells comes from countries with equally horrendous human rights records. I'm just saying – the issue is a lot bigger than the plague of Armenian ass implants. But yes, the Kardashians should manufacture in America. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen have made American manufacturing a priority for their lines – why not the Kardashians? |
Tom Cruise gushes about “amazing” Katie: “Every day I fall more in love with her” Posted: 21 Dec 2011 07:55 AM PST Tom Cruise isn’t quite finished pimping out his family for the sake of promoting Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, which I guess is sort of understandable since he doesn’t mave much else to talk about other than his insane stunt work in the movie. I mean, he’s finally figured out that no one wants to hear him talk about Scientology and the evils of psychiatry, so that’s something positive. Still, Tom’s been around the globe a few times in the past few weeks, and then he returned to New York City to get papped with the family all weekend while carting poor Suri around without a coat. By the time he and Katie actually walked the red carpet, they both looked exhausted as hell. As a general rule, I can’t even imagine how exhausting it must be for Katie to deal with Tom on a consistent basis and even experience his suffocating “lovebombing” when he’s away for work too. Make no mistake that Tom is still thrilled to have Katie as his wife (whatever that actually means to them as a couple), and he’s still giving interviews to discuss her “amazing” qualities. He really needs to learn some new adjectives, right?
[From People] Yeah, Katie’s birthday must have been quite the event, what with the Sciento-clown in attendance. Shudder. Meanwhile, Tom hasn’t forgotten about his other girl either, for he’s also paying lipservice to Suri as well:
[From Us Magazine] Okay, that last part must have been a lie because, seriously, are we supposed to believe that Tom only wears lifts because “amazing” Katie dictates that he must do so? I think she sort of enjoys towering over him sometimes. Rather, it’s Tom who can’t handle the truth. In addition to Tom’s vomit-inducing words about his lovely and incredible wife, the Cruise also stopped by “The Late Show with David Letterman” on Monday evening to promote MI4, and he barely gets a word in about his wife and daughter because Dave (mercifully) keeps quizzing him about the movie stunts. However, Tom does make quick mention of Katie staying home from the international MI4 tour because the schedule was jam-packed, not because she was lounging somewhere on a recharging dock as I previously guessed. My bad. On a slightly amusing note, the Daily Mail has some photos of a very heavily made-up Tom outside the Ed Sullivan show after chatting with Letterman. While I’m aware that guests on the show wear make-up for the cameras, the amount of blusher and lipstick on Tom is ridiculous, and someone should’ve made him wash that stuff off before heading onto the street. Fortunately, you can’t really see it while he’s chatting to Dave onscreen though. Here’s a clip of the show, which is largely uneventful because Tom’s apparently taken a few PR lessons on how to hide the crazy. He does slip once though when Letterman says the word “ass” — Tom begins laughing hysterically and then repeats the word. What a freak. Now as a special bonus, here’s ore of Tom’s freaky plastic-surgery face from the MI4 NYC premiere. You know you love it. Photos courtesy of Fame and WENN |
‘The Hobbit’ trailer arrives: good for the fanboys or just overrated crap? Posted: 21 Dec 2011 07:37 AM PST After what seems like an eon of production hell, the teaser trailer for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has finally materialized. The movie, of course, will be the first of two Hobbit films based upon J.R.R. Tolkien’s works and directed by Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings; King Kong). I’m not a huge fan of the source material because, to be blunt, I didn’t go crazy about all of that Middle earth stuff during my childhood (I was more of a Nancy Drew chick), but die-hard fans have been waiting forever to see this movie. And even after this trailer, they’re still going to have to wait another year for the first movie itself, which releases in December 2012, and even longer for the second installment, which arrives in December 2013. Naturally, the promotion has already started, and EW.com has released the first few stills of the film in conjunction with the new teaser trailer. As far as the main casting goes, Martin Freeman (“Sherlock”) plays title character Bilbo Baggins; Ian McKellan will be, to borrow an expression from Tom Cruise, “amazing” as Gandalf; Cate Blanchett plays Noldorin princess Galadriel (a bit of inspired casting); and Elijah Wood shall pop in as Frodo. Here’s that trailer:
At first, I was wondering whether the fanboys (and girls) would tear this sneak peek to pieces because they’re probably so frustrated at waiting so long for the actual movie. Seriously, there have been a million false starts, so fans would have to be really devoted to hang onto any semblance of hope. Well, the YouTube comments on the trailer range from “I NEED TO CLEAN MY SCREEN NOW” to “Teasing this film one year before the release is pure evil…” to “omg omg omg omg want to see NAOW.” Yeah, this film will make far too much money when it finally arrives.

George Clooney vacations with Cindy Crawford & Stacy Keibler in Cabo yet again Posted: 21 Dec 2011 06:35 AM PST Last night, I read a Daily Mail story about George Clooney traveling down to Cabo san Lucas yet again, for his millionth Mexican holiday of the year. First: when did Clooney become of the male version of Jennifer Aniston? Second: At first, the reports suggested that Clooney was flying solo in Cabo… meaning that Stacy Keibler was NOT traveling with him. But the Mail claimed that Cindy Crawford was there, so I got super-excited that Clooney might have dumped Stacy right before his big awards season push. Turns out, not so much. These are new photos of George and Stacy together in Cabo yesterday. You can see them riding in a golf cart together. So… Stacy and George are still together. Oscar-Date Barbie will be Clooney's Oscar Date, for better or for worse. But will she last much longer than the awards season? Elisabetta Canalis managed to stick around a lot longer than I was expecting, but then Eli messed it up by talking about marriage and babies and Clooney quickly had security escort her out. Stacy might fall into the same trap too – one look at her Twitter page, and it's clear that she's got love and babies on her mind. Poor Cray-Cray. At least she's making money out of this relationship though – the NYDN just re-confirmed that Keibler's appearance fee has jumped to $25,000 a gig, and that she's in high demand now that she's Clooney's Girl. I'm also including a photo of Cindy Crawford, the girl Clooney wishes he was with. |
Evan Rachel Wood & Jamie Bell might be getting engaged soon, yay! Posted: 21 Dec 2011 06:12 AM PST Evan Rachel Wood is a girl who moves fast. When she was barely an adult, she was already living with Marilyn Manson, and she and Marilyn had two on-and-off engagements, didn't they? But Marilyn is long gone now (thank God) and ERW has been with English actor Jamie Bell for most of this year, I think. Apparently, they dated back in the day (pre-Marilyn?) and then they got back together this year, and they've been loved up ever since. Personally, I think they're a hot couple. I think Evan is really beautiful and talented, and I think Jamie has that naughty English boy thing, plus his comically oversized ears would make a good ankle rest. Oh, and Jamie also knows his way around a vagina, or so he claims. So, basically, HOT. I'm rooting for them. And Jamie might even try to put a ring on it too!
[From Radar] He's 25, she's 24… I tend to think they're too young to settle down, but if they got engaged, I wouldn't be surprised. I like that they're the same age, I like that they seem to be genuinely into each other, and I could totally see them working in the long run. Sigh… I want an English boy!! Damn it. |
Mariah Carey’s subdued, low-key look in Aspen: surprisingly pretty & young? Posted: 21 Dec 2011 05:41 AM PST These are new photos of Mariah Carey in Aspen, Colorado yesterday. I'm surprised Mariah is so covered up! Yes, I know it's probably freezing in Aspen, but Mariah has her new Jenny Craig body and everything, you'd think that she would have found a warm outfit that showed off her figure. Like, a fur bikini. Flannel-lined booty shorts. Boob mittens. Instead, Mariah wore this poncho that I actually LOVE. It makes her look bigger than she actually is, sure, but it's a great piece. I like how Mariah isn't all glamorous too – she's barely wearing any makeup! WHO ARE YOU?
[From The Mail] I get that. I think it's a little bit depressing when Christmas falls during a heat wave here in Virginia, and I love it when it's all wintery and grey. Here's Mariah's new Christmas song with John Legend, "When Christmas Comes". It's a decent Christmas song, and the video is pretty cute. I just wish Mariah wasn't writhing on a fur rug, you know? MORE LEGEND. |
Kim Kardashian slams “malicious” Enquirer report about her charitable Haiti trip Posted: 21 Dec 2011 04:32 AM PST A few weeks ago, Kim Kardashian and her mother went to Haiti. They allegedly traveled to the still-devastated island at the invitation of Maria Bello, who started a charity called We Advance, which guides money to women's health issues. Kris and Kim posed with some kids and the whole trip was actually kind of quiet for the most part – there were no gratuitous tweets, Kim didn't "pull a Cracken" and claim that she was saving lives, and it actually seemed like Kim and Kris actually spent their time learning about the charity. I think that when they came back, Kris issued a statement, but that was basically it. Unfortunately, The Enquirer claims has new report based on interviews with lots of bitchy, Kardashian-hating Haitians – go here to read it. The Enquirer's sources claim that Kim and Kris stayed in a fancy hotel, had poor children "bused in" for photo-ops, and that Kim went to a fashion show just for fun while she was in Haiti, and that Kim was scared of poverty germs. Oh, and that Oprah and Sean Penn totally hate how phony Kim is. Because I imagine Sean and Oprah think of nothing else…? Anyway, Kim is denying the report:
[Via Kim's blog post] What do I believe? I'd guess that Kim and Kris probably did spend at least SOME of their trip in luxurious accommodations, but I also think they probably did spend a lot of time learning about the charity and meeting people and all of that stuff. I also don't think we should bash Kim for spending money while she was down there – Haiti's economy is still struggling, and they need tourism dollars. I hate to say it, but even if Kim did take a trip to Haiti just for a fun vacation time, it would have helped. Yes, I can't believe I'm defending her either. While I'm sure Kim just made the Haiti trip as a way to convince people that she's a good person, she might have inadvertently helped and she might have actually done something positive. GAH. Also, in other vaguely related news – Kris Humphries just signed on for another year with the Nets. His contract is somewhere in the $7-8 million range. Another GAH. I guess that stupid "Basketball, um, er, like, basketball, um" interview worked. |
Mariah Yeater clings to her paternity claim against Bieber; does she have a case? Posted: 21 Dec 2011 04:17 AM PST
[From The Chicago Sun Times] This chick got a new lawyer who worked for free and convinced her that she should keep pushing this for whatever reason. Her last team of lawyers quit her ass when they realized that she was a nut job. In other Justin Bieber news, he’s supposedly hanging out at the Playboy mansion all the time now and it’s known that he went there with his dad for his 17th (not his 18th) birthday in March. His parents should keep him away from that place. Who knows what he’ll catch there, and I’m not just talking about cougar cooties. Here’s Justin on 12/14 nearly getting a ticket in his custom Batmobile Cadillac. The cop let him off with a warning. Credit: Pacific Coast News |
