Are Leonardo DiCaprio & Quentin Tarantino fighting on the set of ‘Django Unchained’?

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 09:38 AM PDT

The Enquirer loves to make Leonardo DiCaprio sound like a mega-bitch. I have no idea if Leo really is this bitchy, but I tend to think that if he was, we would have heard about it by someone other than The Enquirer, you know? In the past, the Enquirer has claimed that Leo did not get along with Clint Eastwood whatsoever, and now they’re claiming that Leo has had words with his latest director, Quentin Tarantino. Oooh, girls.

When LEONARDO DICAPRIO accidentally got clocked in the kisser by co-star JAMIE FOXX and suffered a bloody lip during a fight scene for new flick "Django Unchained," he cursed angrily, but NOT at Jamie – whirling instead on director QUENTIN TARANTINO, bellowing, "You #&*%$#@*!!"

Reports My On-Set Spy: "Going into the scene, Leo was already feeling testy because he was wearing heavy-duty, vintage handcuffs that were chafing his wrists.

“When cameras rolled, Jamie – playing a bounty hunter – swung his hands up violently, hitting Leo's wrists and slamming the cuffs into his mouth.

“Instantly, Leo started cursing out Quentin. He was furious because they'd had a fight earlier about how the fight scene should be filmed – but Leo lost, so they did it the director's way."

As blood dripped from Leo's lip and crew members rushed in with wet cloths and ice, the star snarled at Tarantino: "I've done four MARTIN SCORSESE films without a scratch – and then I work with YOU!"

The scene was shot hours later, after ice packs and makeup artists made Leo screen-ready.

[From The Enquirer]

Now, I can see a dude (any dude) being angry because he got injured, especially if the damage was foreseeable. I also wonder if Quentin’s directing style mixes well with Leo’s acting style, and whether or not there’s tension simply because this is the first time they’re working together. But, at the end of the day, everyone always says that Leo is a total pro, and that Quentin is a friendly, fun-loving genius. If Leo made a crack about Martin Scorsese, it was probably said jokingly? I don’t know. Maybe Leo is a bitch.

On the flip side, I had forgotten how many casting changes were made with this film. I seem to remember Brad Pitt, Michael Fassbender, and Chiwetel Ejiofor all being considered for various parts. Now it stars Leo, Jamie Foxx, Sacha Baron Cohen, Christoph Waltz and Kurt Russell. Weird.

OK!: Rihanna is sexting Ashton Kutcher, he wants their hookups “kept secret”

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 09:29 AM PDT

This story is in OK! Magazine, so who knows if it’s true at all, but it’s interesting to me. Last week OK! reported that Ashton Kutcher called time out on his booty call relationship with Rihanna because he was upset that she had maybe called the paparazzi, who caught her visiting Ashton’s house from approximately 12pm to 4am, basically alerting the press. Well OK! is doubling down this week with the claim that Rihanna isn’t taking no for an answer and is sending Ashton sexy photos and text messages in an attempt to win him back. Supposedly Ashton is mildly receptive, but isn’t willing to let anyone know that they’re sleeping together at all. Here’s their report:

Insiders say [Rihanna], 24, has been sending Ashton, 34, sexy messages as well as pictures of herself while she’s been touring in London and Japan.

“She’s into him, for sure,” on insider dishes to OK! “She bought a $700 lingerie set from Lascivious in London and has sent him lots of close-ups of her cleavage, stomach and his favorite part – her derriere!”

Some friends insist that it’s the thrill of the chase that’s fueling Rihanna’s fiery flirts.

“She knows she’s not the only girl Ashton’s been seeing and she finds that to be a challenge,” one friend says.

In fact, “The more he resists her advances, the more determined she is to conquer him. She loves a challenge, because now they are so rare. She has men falling at her feet and proposing marriage all the time, so the fact that Ashton can take her or leave her is driving her crazy! So she’s turning on the sexy and hoping he’ll be putting in her hands!

“Ashton would like to see Rihanna again – what man wouldn’t? But he’s made it clear their hookups have to be kept secret.

“He hated all the attention they got the other week. Rihanna knows that if she’s going to see him again, she has to be discreet about it this time. So he kind of has one foot in and one foot out – and she knows that, and it’s turning her on even more.”

[From OK! Magazine, print edition, April 23, 2012]

I believe that Rihanna would do this, since we’ve already seen nude iPhone self portraits from her, and she tweets constantly and posts sexy pictures of herself on Twitter. Still, I want much, much better for Rihanna, even in a casual hookup. I know she’s into this type of casual sex relationship and good for her if she’s cool with it, but she’s chasing after goddamn Ashton Kutcher! Take a step back, breathe, and realize how stupid that is, Rihanna! This guy is an ass. I guess he’s a much lesser evil than Chris Brown, there’s always that.

Oh and if a guy wants to keep your relationship a secret, don’t screw him he’s not worth it! Let’s hope that Rihanna has already moved on to someone hotter who is much more worthy anyway.

Courtney Love accuses Dave Grohl of trying to seduce Francis Bean Cobain

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 09:25 AM PDT

It’s been nearly a year since we’ve had reason to ponder the miraculous continued existence of Courtney Love on Twitter. Honestly, I don’t know why she didn’t take being sued for defamation (for several tweets last year) as a sign that she should eschew all social networking platforms. Does Twitter help her sell records or concert tickets? Probably not, so Court needs to just stay away from Twitter because she is clearly not capable of censoring her own thought processes (or in most cases, even spelling them out correctly). But I guess Courtney’s big mouth would still get in trouble anyway without the help of the internet because — just in the past few months — she’s still managed to attack the Muppets, hilariously claim to be Lindsay Lohan’s sobriety coach, and to blame her benzos addiction on Winona Ryder and Andy Dick.

So when this story about Courtney’s latest round of Twitter ranting popped up, my initial response was “Shut up, Courtney.” Apparently a few nights ago, Court got the bright idea that 43-year-old Dave Grohl (formerly the drummer of Kurt Cobain’s Nirvana) was trying to seduce (i.e., “macking on“) her estranged daughter, Francis Bean Cobain. This conclusion was based upon Courtney speaking with ~~the voices in her head~~ Francis’ roommate, who supposedly knows Dave’s driver and said that Francis was in the car with Dave and he was massively groping her. The entire Twitter rant is screencapped at Gawker, but I won’t replicate it here because it’s full of profanity. There are several reasons why — not the least of which is that Francis seems to prefer the exclusive company of her boyfriend, Isaiah Silva — it makes no sense why Francis would ever be in Dave’s car, but common sense matters very little to Courtney Love:

Courtney Love has accused Dave Grohl of attempting to seduce her 19-year-old daughter, Frances Bean Cobain.

The Hole singer, who is estranged from her only child, made the accusations on her private Twitter account last night. She claims that her daughter’s roommate told her that the Foo Fighters frontman – who is known as one of the nicest men in rock – “hit on Frances,” according to Gawker.

Grohl,43, is, for the uninitiated, the former Nirvana bandmate and best friend of Frances’ father, Kurt Cobain. He has therefore known her since she was a baby.

Grohl responded to Love’s accusations in a statement, he said: “Unfortunately Courtney is on another hateful Twitter rant. These new accusations are upsetting, offensive and absolutely untrue.”

After the initial incredible allegation, Love went on to threaten a Twitter account she obviously believed belonged to Grohl, although it is actually linked to a German IT worker who hasn’t tweeted since 2008, according to the website.

She talked about Grohl’s “pathology,” insisting that Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins resembles Cobain and is in the “submissive drummer position” in his hugely successful band. It has to be noted that Hawkins actually looks more like Grohl, albeit with Kurt-coloured straw blonde hair.

She also argued that the fact Grohl called one of his daughters Violet is salient, as a Hole song shares the same name. However, his eldest child, who turns six on Sunday, was named after Grohl’s maternal grandmother, as he’s stated in many interviews. The happily married rocker also has daughter Harper, who turns three next week, by his wife of nine years, Jordyn Blum.

He is one of the most beloved artists in the world, and unusually for a rock star, all the tales about him relate to his generous and moral character.

Unencumbered by actual facts, however, Courtney also accused Grohl of being “sexually obsessed” with Kurt then relayed information from a driver who claimed that Grohl had “his hands all over” Frances in his car. She also insisted that the Ohio born star, who grew up in a suburb of Washington D.C, has tried to seduce Courtney herself in the past.

This is far from the first time Love has attacked Grohl. Last November, the singer started ranting about him taking food from her child’s table at a festival in Brazil after a fan flashed a poster of Cobain in the audience. It’s alleged the pair have clashed over Nirvana copyright issues, yet Grohl has kept his counsel about Love and his friend.

[From Daily Mail]

Naturally, Dave’s publicist has denied the veracity of Courtney’s claims, and I’m pretty sure that Courtney must have imagined this so-called “conversation” with Francis’ roommate. Wouldn’t you think that a precondition to being friends with or even living with Francis would be to never have contact with her mother, who lost custody of Francis in 2009? In the aftermath of Francis’ freedom from Courtney, we also learned how Francis’ cat died and and her dog was nearly lost as well because of Court’s hoarding and pill-gobbling issues. So my initial statement still stands — shut up, Courtney.

Even though I don’t think anyone ever believes anything Courtney says at this point, this story is pretty horrible. I hope Francis ignores it, and I hope Dave sues Courtney for defamation. He’s been married to wife Jordyn Blum for nine years, and they have two children together. Dave doesn’t need this kind of crap from Courtney Love.

Jennifer Lawrence explains her style: “I don’t really care about clothes, to be honest”

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 08:49 AM PDT

Jennifer Lawrence has a new (old) interview in the new issue of Hello Magazine. It was done before the release of The Hunger Games, so at this point, Jennifer had no idea that it was going to be this HUGE, record-breaking movie. Maybe she did have some idea, but that's not what she was focused on in this interview. And no, she doesn't talk about squirrels. Thank Jesus. She talks a lot about loving Katniss and how she hates getting dressed up and there are some really interesting quotes that I think she's directing at the Twilight series:

Katniss is Joan d'Arc: "This character Katniss, she's a futuristic Joan of Arc, she's a symbol for hope, she's a hero that doesn't want to be a hero. We all said we weren't going to make a watered-down version of the book, because you take the violence out of the movie, you take the heart out of it."

On her boyfriend, Nicolas Hoult: "I'm not in love," she says firmly – and not particularly believably, in view of her broad grin. "I like my life as it is, and I know that it's going to change, and I don't know if it's going to change for the better or for the worse, but it's going to be different and that's scary."

On her style: "I hate shopping. I don't really care about clothes, to be honest. I mean, when I'm on red carpets I've started to become more vocal about the things that I want to wear just because it's better to look at photographs later and like the dress I was wearing, rather than see myself wearing something I was told to wear and which I hate. But when it's just me, I'm not really interested. I go out like maybe once a year and just buy a bunch of stuff to stock up on, and that's it. I used to live in sweatpants until I started being followed by photographers, so these days I have to start putting on makeup and wearing proper clothes every time I leave the house, which is definitely a change for me."

Why she loves Katniss: "You know what really made me fall in love with Katniss? It was that, for once, this is a woman in a movie who is focused on something other than who her boyfriend is. She's forced into an arena to fight for survivial – she's thrown into a way and becomes a political figure without even realizing it – and that is far more interesting than her romantic life. Look, I loved working with both Josh and Liam, but as far as Katniss is concerned, I think that with all she has going on, the very bottom of her priorities list is the question of who her next boyfriend is going to be."

[Via Hello Magazine, print edition]

She's totally in love! And I hope Hoult loves her too. He seems like such a sweet guy. How could you not love him? As for the shopping stuff – well, this partially explains Jennifer's style during the promotional tour for THG, which often went from bad to worse. I hope she wasn't picking out those frocks.

Now, for the comments that I think are directed at Twilight – right on. I love this girl. I love that she said it that way and that she's not playing the "boy crazy" girl in interviews and she's actually talking about how she loves playing a warrior and a violent antihero. Good for her.

Scarlett Johansson covers Vogue, she’s still friends with “remarkable” Sean Penn

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 08:12 AM PDT

Scarlett Johansson is the May cover girl for Vogue. Much like Charlize Theron's recent appearance on Vogue UK, it seems like the default-setting for fashion editors these days is, "Eh, just put a blonde on the cover and style her like Grace Kelly." How does ScarJo do with Grace Kelly-styling (as opposed to her usual Marilyn Monroe styling)? It's okay. Actually, I think this is one of the most boring Vogue editorials ever. Not even the leopard saves this junk. I'm actually putting some of the blame on ScarJo – considering the girl gets SO many modeling contracts, I expect more from her as a photographic subject, and she consistently fails to deliver. You can read the whole Vogue piece here – ScarJo is taking cooking lessons! Because Blake Lively loves to cook. Sorry! I just thought I would mention that. Here are some highlights from the piece:

Being older: "It feels like a lifetime ago," Johansson says. "Am I happy I'm not 20 anymore? Yeah. Nineteen? I don't want to be that age. It's incredibly confusing."

Working with Woody Allen: "I forged this unbelievable friendship with somebody who saw the potential in me at that age," Johansson says. She would later work with Allen on Scoop and Vicky Cristina Barcelona. "Not that the parts he wrote weren't sexy, but they had substance to them."

Marrying Ryan Reynolds: "We always kept our story private—how we met, our wedding, everything," she says. "It was about us."

The divorce: Johansson describes it as "comically amicable," but the parting was far from painless. "It was horrible," she says. "Of course it's horrible. It was devastating. It really throws you. You think that your life is going to be one way, and then, for various reasons or whatever, it doesn't work out. This was something I never thought I would be doing," she continues. "And there's no way to navigate it. Nobody can give you the right answer. It's never anything you want to hear. It's a very lonely thing. It's like the loneliest thing you'll ever do, in some way."

She's almost wistful about it: "I'm not saying more time in the marriage, but just having more time with my ex and really clocking those hours of face time with the person you love, really live together and not having the pressure of two people that have these careers. . . ." She has no regrets about getting married; she describes the experience with genuine affection. "It was a beautiful thing," Johansson says. "The falling in love and getting married and making that commitment . . . I think it's nice to know that you're capable of loving somebody in that way. I think it's a rare opportunity." She says she is still recovering and doesn't pretend the divorce is fully in the rearview. "I don't feel on the other side of it completely, but it gets better," she says. "It's still there. More than anything, it's just that not having your buddy around all the time is weird. There's no rule book. I think it's just time."

On Sean Penn: "We spent time together, yeah," she says. "I never put a title on it, really, but we were seeing each other." She says she was startled by the amount of media attention the pairing received. "In my marriage, funnily enough, we had relative privacy," she says, but the fuss over her and Penn "was a little bit of an adjustment." She says she and Penn have remained friends, and she praises his extensive relief work in Haiti. "He's a remarkable person," she says. "He really is."

Being hacked: "It wasn't just me," Johansson says. "It was others. I don't want to be a victim and say, 'Oh, well' and just hide my head in shame. Somebody stole something from me. . . . It's sick. I don't want people like that to slide." The incident clearly still rattles her. "When all those photos came out, of course I go out to dinner and think, Goddamn it, these people have all seen my. . . ." Johansson's voice trails off. "That's terrible. You know what I mean? You can't not think that. Even if they haven't, you're paranoid. I don't want pity," she says. Her solution, she says, was "tuning it all out"—to stop paying attention to the gossip and the endless churn of celebrity coverage. She says she had never paid much attention to it before, but she imposed a strict blackout. "I have to say I'm way happier because of it," she says. "It's nice. It allows me, I think, to be more creative. It's nice not to be so self-aware."

On playing Black Widow: "Female superheroes normally are superlame." Natasha/Black Widow "is kind of gray. I like that about her."

The most beautiful man in the world: Lately, Johansson has been dating a New York–based advertising creative director named Nate Naylor; they've been photographed by the paparazzi on the Manhattan streets and vacationing in Hawaii—the actress and the real-life Don Draper. Seeing someone out of the public eye may be a comparatively tranquil experience for Johansson, but for her new beau, dating a celebrity has been a real change. Johansson seems amused by how well Naylor has dealt with the sudden attention. "It must be very strange for him," she says, smiling. "It's totally bizarre. It's an adjustment—I mean, it's got to be an adjustment for him way more than it was for me at nineteen. But he's really remarkably good about it."

[From Vogue]

Is it okay if the divorce stuff doesn't interest me at all? I'm kind of over talking about Ryan and Scar together or apart. But I do think it's interesting that she commented on the Sean Penn thing – remember, it's said that Sean pretty much dumped her after their whirlwind affair. I also think the Nate Naylor stuff is good – of course he's adjusted to dating a celebrity – he thinks he's a celebrity too! After all, he's the most beautiful man ever.

Ashley Judd blasts the “nasty, vitriolic and gloating tone” of her critics

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 07:46 AM PDT

Here are some new photos of Ashley Judd yesterday, filming a segment for Extra. I'm sure she's promoting Missing, but at this point, hardly anyone is talking about her show. Everyone is talking about "the puffy-face controversy" because Ashley is still talking about it too. As we previewed yesterday, Ashley gave an interview to NBC to further explain her face and excoriate her critics, just as she did in her Daily Beast essay. Interestingly enough, Ashley continues to shill her flawed (in my opinion) argument, which amounts to "People said mean things about me, and that makes them misogynists."

Once again, I think Ashley is simply angry that people said mean things about her, and that they say harsh things about women – not that women are judged on their appearances in general. Ashley's point is NOT "We should not say things about a woman's appearance, good or bad, because a woman should be judged on her mind." Ashley's point is "People shouldn't say mean things about my appearance in particular because it's anti-woman to notice when I have a puffy face." It's absolutely fine with her if you want to compliment her "flawless skin" (her words) or say that she looks pretty.

In the new interview, Ashley claims, "I think it’s hatred of women that invites the criticism… I think it’s the objectification of girls and women and this hypersexualization of our society that invites the criticism." Hypersexualization? In my opinion, that's a separate argument. Our society does hypersexualize women, and it's especially creepy when young girls are hypersexualized. But I don't understand the point here, with Judd. Is she saying that our culture is so sexualized that we don't put worth in a woman if we don't deem her "sexy"? Valid and interesting point, but is that what she’s saying? Or is it that a once-beautiful Hollywood starlet, who relied and profited from her beauty and her "sexiness" for years and years, had never before had her appearance criticized?

Judd continues, "It doesn’t have anything to do with me, really, and how I look… There was no presumption of goodwill. The conversation went straight to, ‘Oh my gosh.’ [There was a] nasty, vitriolic and gloating tone. I started to catch the double bind where, you know, my face looks puffy, ‘She’s had work,’ you know? And then, look at the same image in a different interpretation by a separate set of people is, ‘Oh, come on, she doesn’t even have any wrinkles at all, she’s clearly had work.’ So, I look bad, I’ve had work. I look too good, I’ve had work.” Except that no one was saying she looked "too good"! Sorry. That amused me. But really, no one was like, "She looks awesome, she must have had work done." People only talked about the "puffy face" because she did look so noticeably different.

The worst part of Judd's flawed argument (once again, in my opinion) was the part where she talks about how women try to "fix" their appearances and the cycle of seeking self-worth in beauty products and exercise equipment. This, coming from a woman who had a long-standing contract with Estee Lauder. At the very least, if you consider Ashley's argument to be valid and without flaws, you have to admit that she was actively engaged with and profiting from this misogynistic system (that she’s now blasting) for years.

Hot Guy ‘Avengers’: who was the hottest dude at last night’s sausage party?

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 06:15 AM PDT

Here are all the dudes from the sausage party red carpet for the LA premiere of The Avengers. I already covered "the jiggle" of the red carpet, Scarlett Johansson, here. But let's be real – it's all about the dudes for this film. It looks like everybody showed up and then some, so I don't even know where to start – Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk? Chris Hemsworth as Thor? No, let's start with the chairman of this particular board, Robert Downey Jr., who is reprising his role as Tony Stark/IronMan. This is their first red carpet since RDJ’s wife Susan gave birth to the couple's first child together, a boy they named Exton Elias Downey. I LOOOOOVE RDJ's purple suit.

Alexander Skarsgard was there with his dad, Stellan. I love his dad – he's such a talented actor. Alex looks… tired? Exhausted, really. Too many ladies, too little time.

Chris Hemsworth is very, very pretty. He looks nice in a three-piece suit too. But he does nothing for me personally. I don't like 'em when they're this pretty.

Chris Evans is Captain America, and… well, I normally like him a lot, but the combination of bad hair and bad suit is leaving me cold.

I'm starting to see the Tom Hiddleston thing more and more. I like the shade of ginger he's working, and God knows, I love a tall bastard. Tom might be one of the best-looking guys at the premiere.

Y'all know I love Jeremy Renner, but this look is a giant NO. He looks like Tom Cruise in Rain Man, right? I would have liked this look better if he paired his too-light suit with a simple white button-down shirt, no tie.

And last but not least, Mark Ruffalo and his wife, Sunrise. So, so, SO cute. Love them both. Him especially.

Anne Hathaway’s Catwoman costume revealed in new images: OMG, cat-ears!

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 05:50 AM PDT

I know a lot of people are worried about The Dark Knight Rises for various reasons. One of the reasons seems to be Tom Hardy's mouthpiece thing, and how it seems like the audience might not be able to understand a damn thing he says. But most of the angst and worry is focused on poor Anne Hathaway and whether or not she'll be able to pull off the Catwoman/Selena Kyle role. Honestly, though, I'm looking forward to it. I think she'll be great. I think her Catwoman will probably be angrier and more damaged than the "kittenish" (ha), vampy Catwoman portrayals we're used to. The Dark Knight Rises comes out July 18 – which feels like a long way away, especially considering that Prometheus and Snow White and the Huntsman are being released in early June (Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!). But Christopher Nolan is so good at releasing bits and pieces of his films to whet the audience's appetite. So Catwoman and Batman take the cover of the new issue of EW, and here are some interview excerpts:

Christopher Nolan on Bane: Bane is played by Inception alum Tom Hardy. Bane is a cunning, hulking terrorist with a menacing respirator-mask and a small army bent on sacking Gotham City. "He represents formidable physical strength, combined with absolute evil of intention," says Nolan.

Nolan on Bane's mouthpiece thing: Hardy's Bane has another defining characteristic that perhaps you've heard about, or perhaps have heard and didn't understand: a curiously accented voice that's further muffled by the rogue's high-tech muzzle. "It's a risk, because we could be laughed at — or it could be very fresh and exciting," says Hardy, adding that the voice he developed was influenced by many factors, including a desire to honor the comic book character's brains and Caribbean heritage. "The audience mustn't be too concerned about the mumbly voice," says Hardy. "As the film progresses, I think you'll be able to tune to its setting."

Nolan on Catwoman: Nolan's take on the character is no campy sexpot or frazzled ghoul but a shifty cipher, calloused survivor, and world-class criminal. Says Nolan, "She has a very strong way of protecting herself and those she cares about, which implies an underlying darkness." Hathaway says she prepared for the role by reading the comics and studying the moves of Hedy Lamarr and Jean Harlow, the two screen legends that inspired the original conception of the comic book villainess.

Anne Hathaway on her transformation: The actress also found herself a trainer. "I had to physically transform," says Hathaway, calling from London, where she's currently shooting Les Misérables with Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe. "Chris sat me down at the beginning and said, 'Joseph Gordon-Levitt did all of his own fighting in Inception. That one zero-gravity fight? He trained for two months.' I basically left his office and went to the gym and just came out about five minutes ago."

[From Entertainment Weekly]

OK, I'll admit it – that got me a little excited. I'm so bad with anticipation though. When I find myself interesting in something, I go crazy if I can't have it right now. I'm currently being driven crazy because I can't see Prometheus RIGHT NOW, so I'll have to wait to anticipate The Dark Knight Rises until… oh, mid-June. I'll pencil it now.

Somebody also released this new, odd image of Anne in her Catwoman costume. This is one of the most bizarre promotional images I've ever seen. Her ass looks cute, though. Oh, and look at her ears! Her cat ears. Are you happy, ear-nerds?

Rachel McAdams & Michael Sheen, loved up in London: super-cute or scruffy?

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 05:43 AM PDT

I know they're not everybody's favorite couple, but I love Rachel McAdams and Michael Sheen together. These are photos of Rachel and Michael at last night's London premiere of his new film, The Story of Us. This is not the first time they've done a carpet together – they did a bunch of stuff together last year during the promotion of Midnight In Paris, and Rachel has done a few appearances for Michael's films. Although… I don't think he's ever come out for one of her films…? Like, he didn't come to any of the premieres of The Vow. Maybe he just didn't want to see the movie?

Anyway, they're just super-cute together and I really want them to get married, but it worries me because I think Michael is anti-marriage. He was with Kate Beckinsale for years and after they split, she said some stuff about how never wanted to marry her. Maybe Rachel doesn't want to get married either – except that I think she probably does want it. And I worry that the marriage issue will split them up. Gah! I need to stop being so neurotic on behalf of this couple. They're fine. They're doing fine.

They've been together for a year and a half (at least). Rachel claims that they didn't get together while they filmed Midnight in Paris (hm…), but they got together shortly after, and they seemed coupled up at the Toronto Film Festival in 2010. Rachel recently told Stella Magazine: "Michael and I never spend more than three weeks apart – we rack up a lot of air miles – but you have to be quite adaptable in this business whether you are in a relationship or not. Trying to establish roots somewhere is a bit of a joke. You need to trust each other and be able to talk to each other and be best friends." They're going to be working together again too – they're scheduled to do a Terrence Malick film at some point.

God, I really wish she'd stop with the blonde. It washes her out!

Adam Levine on Jennifer Love Hewitt declaring she wants to date him: “flattering and sweet”

Posted: 12 Apr 2012 05:38 AM PDT

Adam Levine dates Victoria’s Secret models, and apparently a lot of other chicks on the side. He’s not about to give up the thrill of chasing fresh young tail to get with a 33 year-old actress who used to date Jamie Kennedy and has admitted multiple times to having three engagement rings picked out at Tiffanys. He might have, if Love Hewitt had played it much much cooler, but she just told Ellen Degeneres that she wanted to date the guy and she gushed about him. It’s not exactly rocket science to imagine that her strategy might backfire and make her seem too easy to get. Well Adam has responded to Love Hewitt’s offer, and he gave her a brushoff couched in appreciation, as if she had just paid him a compliment. You know there’s no way he’s going to get with her now. Here’s what he told Access Hollywood:

Newly single Adam Levine doesn't mind when the ladies flirt with him!

Access Hollywood caught up with "The Voice" coach after Tuesday's show, where he chimed in Jennifer Love Hewitt's recent suggestion that they would make a good couple.

"It's very, very flattering," Adam, who recently split with Anne V, told AccessHollywood.com's Laura Saltman. "It's very flattering and very sweet and it was lovely to hear."

Adding with a smile, "But I'm not going to let it get to my head."

[From Access Hollywood]

“I’m not going to let it get to my head” is code for “this happens a lot, and I try to ignore the fangirls.” What is with J.Love? I just want to talk some sense into her and send her He’s Just Not That Into You.* She’s very successful with a great social life and she’s gorgeous. (I really do think she’s so pretty when she’s styled well, not here where she has lee press-on lashes.) Plus she’s famous and sexy! Men should be falling over themselves to date her, but instead she’s so boy crazy she’s ruining her chances. You really would think someone would have clued her in by now. Hell she even wrote a book about dating and yet she’s failing the basics. I guess I shouldn’t care too much. She also needs to realize that she’s getting fixated on guys who are total a**holes who treat her like crap. A lot of us have friends like this, and we can’t get through to them, either.

*Thanks to those of you who mentioned that book in the comments!

Update: Thanks to Sandra for the link to this interview with Adam. He talks about the J.Love stuff at 3:00. He actually is addressing women saying he’s sexy in general, not J.Love specifically when he says “that is very flattering, I’m not going to let it get to my head.” Then he was asked specifically about Love and said it was flattering and sweet and “lovely to hear.” Dismissed.
