| It Was The Basketball Wives Who Told Vanessa Bryant That Kobe Bryant Was Cheating On Her Posted: 19 Dec 2011 11:48 AM PST
Apparently it’s typical for NBA players to tell their wives about their teammates’ exploits, after swearing the women to secrecy. And it’s even more typical for the women to turn around and share those same secrets with their fellow wives and girlfriends. This creates a net of trust so that if one woman’s husband steps out on her, she’ll definitely find out before she gets publicly humiliated. This sounds like an episode of Alias, right? TMZ says that Vanessa has caught Kobe with other women multiple times over the last few years — they’ve been married for a little over a decade — but that this latest time was the proverbial straw that breaks the camel’s back. You’d think that the players would learn not to brag to their wives about their teammates; but then again, the ladies would probably still find out. Because as this story has established, they’re basically super spies. Related posts: Post from: Crushable  |
| The Daily WTF: LEGO Want Girls To Play With Waitress Toys Posted: 19 Dec 2011 11:34 AM PST LEGO’s 2012 new product line will include the launch of something called LEGO Friends, toys marketed specifically to girls. These figures are curvier than then the standard block toy and feature fun, super girly set-ups like the diner-plus-waitress situation above. My, what a short skirt you have, ma’am! Another option is this poolside relaxation kit — which just might be the most boring toy of all time. “Hey, Annie, you want to come over and make our LEGOs sunbathe next to an umbrella?” Ugh. When I was a little girl, I totally played with LEGOs and I never had any complaints that they weren’t girly enough. (via The Daily What) Post from: Crushable  |

| Check Out Britney Spears’ Extremely Diamond-y Engagement Ring Posted: 19 Dec 2011 10:50 AM PST
Newly engaged couple Britney Spears and Jason Trawick celebrated Jason’s 40th birthday in Las Vegas over the weekend, which provided the paps a nice opportunity to take zoomed-in pictures of the crazy expensive engagement ring he recently gave her. Here is one such picture: Look at that rock! And because I know you want to take a closer look at it, here’s a close-up provided by the ring’s designer, Neil Lane:
And because I know you can’t get enough of Brit Brit’s OMG EXCITED face, here are a few more pictures of her and Jason looking very, very stoked on life (and, um, branded cake, and lollipops): (Via The Cut) Related posts: Post from: Crushable  |
| Gallery: What Does A VH1 Diva Wear? Posted: 19 Dec 2011 10:28 AM PST Pink, apparently. And lots of fur. Singing ladies like Florence Welch, Mary J. Blige and Dolly Parton were on hand last night for the taping of VH1 Divas Celebrates Soul. The program airs tonight, but we thought we’d give you a head start on things with a gallery of the best red carpet looks. Weird that no one told these divas they’re not supposed to smile.

| NYU Fired A Tisch Professor For Giving James Franco A ‘D’ Posted: 19 Dec 2011 09:53 AM PST
The New York Post spoke with José Angel Santana, who’s suing NYU to get his job back. He taught James in Directing the Actor II, but the Oz star missed 12 of the 14 classes. I had professors who would kick you out of the class for missing half as many meetings, but Santana decided to compromise and give James a D. Then he got fired. Santana believes that NYU sided with James and has been in a conflict of interest from the start. He listed multiple professors who he says traded good grades with James in order to be cast in his short films. James’ access to prestigious film festivals means that his professors’ writing and acting gets seen a lot more quickly than if they had helped on a normal student’s film. “The school has bent over backwards to create a Franco-friendly environment, that's for sure. The university has done everything in its power to curry favor with James Franco,” Santana said. “In my opinion, they've turned the NYU graduate film degree into swag for James Franco's purposes, a possession, something you can buy.” James maintains that he’s the victim here. “I did the work, I did well in everything else,” he told Showbiz411 in September 2010. (But see, the point of college is to get real-world experience — if you’re somewhere like NYU — while still attending classes.) He suggested that Santana was threatened by having a real-life celebrity in his class, but I’m more inclined to believe that NYU gave him special treatment. I’ve heard the university called “opportunistic” while I was there, and James Franco was one of the first celebrities in a while to deign to attend our school. Why wouldn’t they want to stay on his good side? Related posts: Post from: Crushable  |
| What Will Happen To 30 Rock‘s Avery Jessup Now That Kim Jong-Il Is Dead? Posted: 19 Dec 2011 09:58 AM PST In the wake of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Il‘s death, many are questioning what it means for the political state of that troubled country, as well as for the world at large. We here at Crushable totally care about those things, but we’re also somewhat curious as to what it will mean for fictional character Avery Jessup. If you will recall, at the close of the last season of 30 Rock, Jack Donaghy‘s wife Avery was still in North Korea after being kidnapped and forced to serve as a propaganda mouthpiece for Kim Jong-Il’s regime: This freed up Jack to participate in amusing bits like “how to raise a baby daughter alone” and “let’s make Kenneth the Page pretend to be my wife to keep me from feeling lonely.” This was a smart move on the show’s part. I mean, you can only play Jack and Avery’s obsessively perfect relationship for so many laughs until it gets old. Also, viewers needed a break from Avery. Despite the fact that she’s clearly meant to satirize those sexy, conservative women you see on Fox News, she can get kind of annoying after a while. It also drew an amusing parallel between the type of misinformation you get from Fox News, and the ridiculous propaganda of a tyrannical government regime. Obviously, there’s a difference, but…how much of one? But now that Kim Jong-Il is gone, the show has a few options. They could kill her off, leaving Jack’s daughter motherless, but I don’t know if a comedy like 30 Rock would go to such a dark place. (Then again, they’re not afraid to joke about marital rape or murdering strippers.) They could bring her back to New York and try to write more funny story lines for her. (What weird tics has she picked up in North Korea?) Or, they could send her on an Odyssey-like quest to get home, which would have the potential for all sorts of international hijinks. Personally, I’d be okay with any of those options, but I’m guessing the show’s producers will choose the second one, because nobody likes to see Jack Donaghy sad.

| Crushable Quoteable: Kevin Federline Is Very Happy For Britney Spears Posted: 19 Dec 2011 09:30 AM PST
Kevin and Britney were married for a little less than three years, from late 2004 until the summer of 2007. She and Jason have been together for a while and their engagement came as a surprise to no one. Now if only they can work in some matching denim a la Britney’s Justin Timberlake years — then we can really believe they’re meant to be. (via Just Jared) Post from: Crushable  |
| 5 Facts About New Year’s Eve Star Til Schweiger Posted: 19 Dec 2011 09:22 AM PST
For one, he plays expectant father James, who’s duking it out against Seth Meyers and Jessica Biel to win $25,000 for the first baby born in 2012. For another, Til may be the odd man out, but he’s not a newbie compared to his twenty castmates. It was easy to come up with five facts since he’s had a pretty successful career. Just not necessarily in America. 1. He’s totally a big deal in Germany: He’s an actor, producer, and director who’s been in the business since 1991. According to the FFA, no other actor has drawn more German audiences to the movies. 2. He’s won two Bambi awards, Germany’s oldest media award for visionary and inspiring works. (And yes, it’s based on the famous fawn.) Other recipients include Christoph Waltz and Kate Winslet. 3. But he’s not well-known only outside of the U.S.: Til has appeared in many recent American films, including King Arthur, Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life, and Inglourious Basterds. His latest project is the comedy This Means War, which stars Chris Pine and Tom Hardy as spies dueling for the affection of Reese Witherspoon. 4. He turned down the chance to be in Saving Private Ryan because he worried that the role, a German soldier who shoots Tom Hanks‘ character, would give Americans an enduring bad image of him. 5. Some sites call Til “the German Brad Pitt” for his rugged looks. It’s also his birthday today! He’s 48. Related posts: Post from: Crushable  |
You might assume from VH1′s reality show Basketball Wives that wives of athletes are c0nstantly trying to undermine and backstab one another. In fact, it’s the complete opposite: TMZ reports that the women have 
According to an interview Lane did with 
James Franco may have graduated from NYU‘s Tisch School of the Arts this year with an MFA, but it sounds like he was a pretty shitty student. First he missed most of the meetings for one of his courses; then he got his professor fired because the guy gave him a nearly failing grade.
The general consensus about Britney Spears‘ engagement to Jason Trawick seems to be that the lady deserves a little happiness and stability. And ex-husband Kevin Federline, father of Brit’s two kids, totally agrees. In an interview on an Australian TV network, Kevin 
In a movie crammed with famous faces, the actor from New Year’s Eve we were talking about was Til Schweiger. As in, “Who the hell is that guy, and why did he make it on the big poster when Alyssa Milano didn’t?”| You are subscribed to email updates from Crushable To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now. | Email delivery powered by Google |
