Check Out The Trailer For Wanderlust, The Movie Where Jennifer Aniston And Justin Theroux First Laid Eyes On One Another

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 10:34 AM PDT

The hippie-commune comedy Wanderlust looks like a funny version of Martha Marcy May Marlene: Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd play a fast-moving New York City power couple who have to relocate after he loses his job. When Atlanta is too blah for them, they decide to “take a detour” and end up at the Elysium bed and breakfast, which is populated by all sorts of freewheeling souls. Including one bearded Justin Theroux.

The movie features a pretty impressive cast — Malin Akerman and Six Feet Under‘s Lauren Ambrose, for example – but of course what has us curious is how this project brought Jen and Justin together. Did their romance begin when he taught her how to milk a goat? When she drinks a hallucinogen and inadvertently quotes R. Kelly? During the inevitable nudist orgy scene?

What’s interesting is that the conditions under which they met weren’t that romantic. After all, Justin plays the dirty hippie leader of a commune, and Jen is the usual high-strung businesswoman from a rom-com. Not to be that guy and make this comparison, but when Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie fell in love on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, they were playing sexy, leather-wearing super spies who had hot chase scenes and even hotter sex scenes. Even when Jennifer starred in The Break-Up opposite later-boyfriend Vince Vaughn, she had a nude scene and they had to create a love story that got ripped apart. Here, the idea of romance seems unappetizing.

Also, it looks like Jennifer and Paul’s characters stay together in the end. But I guess that’s not enough to stop an attraction from blooming.

Strangely, Wanderlust is slated to come out around Valentine’s Day of next year—February 24, 2012.

Topless Paparazzo Flashes Bill Cosby In More Ways Than One

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 10:31 AM PDT

 

Topless drag king photographer Harvey Van Toast (real name: Holly Van Toast) has become something of a fixture in New York nightlife as of late. In addition to baring her breasts while in court for um, baring her breasts, the self-described “topless paparazzo” has flashed celebs from Patricia Clarkson to Snooki, and this week it was Bill Cosby‘s turn. What better person to show your boobs to than someone most of us associate with childhood, Jell-O pudding pops, and funky sweaters? Exactly.

She embarked on this particular endeavor with fellow photographer Brandon Stanton, who was curious to see his new friend in action. He described the outing in detail in his blog, Humans of New York:

I expected to find her bare-chested, defiant, and forcing pamphlets into the clenched hands of tourists. But when I arrived she was fully clothed. She was rocking on her heels. She looked nervous as shit. “I’m nervous as shit,” she said. “Why? What’s going on?” “Bill Cosby’s in there. ” Holly pointed at the bookstore. “He’s signing books. When he comes out, I’m going to flash him. That’s what I do.” “That’s what you do?” “Yeah, me and my friends are artists. I’m trying to get attention so I try to flash celebrities. I take off my shirt and run up to them. You know, like a topless paparazzo. That’s what I call myself — Holly Van Voast, Topless Paparazzo.”

After much nervous waiting, Bill Cosby finally emerged from the store and she sprang into action. As predicted, Mr. Cosby was hustled quickly into his waiting car, but not before Stanton got this fine reaction shot:

Although his expression is pretty amusing, I was sort of hoping his reaction would be closer to the “Cosby face” Stefon made on SNL:

That said, I can’t really blame him for being all “WTF” about it. It can be confusing the first time you’re confronted with a mustachioed, topless paparazzo out of the blue like that. Fortunately for the celebrities of New York City, it only gets easier.

Aubrey Plaza Defies Logic, Does Not Recognize Ryan Gosling

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 10:10 AM PDT

Here’s what I would do if Ryan Gosling came up to me while I was buying a snack and gave me a compliment: First, my mouth would open and drool would begin to trickle out. I’d probably start to pant. And then I’d stutter, “You’re… you’re.. Ra-ra-ryan Gosling!” Not Aubrey Plaza, though — she didn’t even recognize the guy. She explains in a Rolling Stone interview:

“I didn’t recognize him. He said, ‘I’m a big fan of the show,’ and I said, ‘Thank you. Are you an actor?’ He kind of smirked and said, ‘Yeahhh…’ I asked his name, and he said, ‘Ryan,’ but it didn’t click. I was like, ‘We worked together, didn’t we? You look so familiar.’ He kept smirking, like I was messing with him. I got my juice and left.”

Are you kidding me, Aubrey Plaza? You mean you haven’t fantasized about the children you and Ryan Gosling will someday have? You haven’t spent hours scrolling through photos of him out playing with his dog George? I just don’t understand you, Aubrey, I just don’t.

7 Latina Actresses We’d Rather See Play Carmen Sandiego Than Jennifer Lopez

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 09:34 AM PDT

The good news: Walden Media (The Chronicles of Narnia) wants to make video-game-turned-childhood-TV-show Where In the World Is Carmen Sandiego? into a movie! The bad news: Jennifer Lopez might star in it. Here’s the logline:

When the ACME agency's greatest detective Carmen Sandiego becomes the world's greatest thief, it's up to her former partner to follow her clues and track her down. Their cat-and-mouse game leads the partner to confront a greater mystery: Is Carmen really a thief or a hero?

Although Walden says she’s currently only attached to produce, we’re scared that J.Lo will get her hands on the project. So to combat that rumor, we’ve come up with seven Latina actresses who we think would be much better fits for Carmen—whether it’s attitude, spryness for chase scenes, or the ability to wear a red trenchcoat.

For the most part, I’ve tried to find photos of these ladies in red or yellow, to get you really envisioning them as Carmen.

Drew Barrymore Tops List Of Most Overpaid Actors In Hollywood

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 09:32 AM PDT

Forbes Magazine has just released a list of the most overpaid actors in Hollywood, and the list tops out with none other than one of America’s sweethearts, Drew Barrymore. To figure this list out, they took the last three non-animated features each actor has starred in over the past three years. They then divided the amount all three of each star’s movies made put together by the total amount the star had been paid, to find out how many dollars the star brought in for each dollar he or she received.

Interestingly enough, the only star who actually lost people money was Drew Barrymore, who returned only 40 cents for each dollar she was paid. Everyone else delivered at least some returns. The entire list is as follows:

1. Drew Barrymore – $0.40
2. Eddie Murphy – $2.70
3. Will Ferrell – $3.50
4. Reese Witherspoon – $3.55
5. Denzel Washington – $4.25
6. Nicolas Cage – $4.40
7. Adam Sandler – $5.20
8. Vince Vaughn – $5.20
9. Tom Cruise – $6.35
10. Nicole Kidman – $6.70

Oh, Eddie Murphy, how far thou hast fallen. I was initially sort of surprised to see a-listers like Vince Vaughn and Denzel Washington on this list, but grew less so when I found out their recent films include Couples Retreat and something called The Book Of Eli, respectively.

On the flip side, I’m surprised Katherine Heigl is not on the list, because isn’t she sort of universally hated by everyone at this point? I should add that financial success is not necessarily an indicator of how good a movie is (I mean, Transformers did really well), but when discussing the kinds of Hollywood blockbusters these people tend to appear in, it’s fairly accurate.

Video: Conan O’Brien Officiates A Same Sex Wedding Live On The Air

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 08:52 AM PDT

Last night, Conan O’Brien took his show on the road from LA to New York City for the purpose of officiating late night television’s first ever live, on the air, same sex wedding. The people getting married? Conan costume designer Scott Cronick and his partner David Gorshein.

Conan being Conan, he cracked a few jokes, but once they got down to business it was unexpectedly touching. These two men clearly love each other very much, and it was sweet to see how they adapted Jewish traditions to accommodate a same sex marriage. This lovely televised ceremony is just one more stake planted in the pop culture landscape in favor of equality and against outdated, wrongheaded, religion-based bigotry. Good job, CoCo!

Celebrity Photographer Tyler Shields Wrote A Novel Called Smartest Man

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 08:19 AM PDT

Celebrity photographer Tyler Shields has been working on his coffee table book The Dirty Side of Glamour – comprised of his daring, often exploitative photos of hot young actors — for years. “I've been working so long on it that it feels like it may never end,” he told Celeb Dirty Laundry in September. So it’s surprising that Dirty Side is not the book project he announced on his website yesterday. It turns out that Tyler also had time to pen a novel, called Smartest Man.

The thing is, this project seemed to come out of the blue; the only coverage it’s gotten is about Emma Roberts, who played the hand model gripping a human brain (yuck) for the cover. She also apparently helped in writing the book, according to a post on JustJared. So what exactly is the book about? Unfortunately, Tyler’s summary won’t give you much insight:

Smartest Man is the story of the smartest man in the world and how he becomes the Smartest Man I must warn you this is a crazy book and a wild ride not for the faint of heart!

The Amazon listing isn’t any more helpful, though it does feature two fascinating polarized reviews. “Becca G” cannot say enough glowing things about the book, including, SM dives deep into the human psyche, displaying brutally honest human emotion under circumstances which range from heart-breaking to beautiful. Then there’s “Nichelle,” who wrote, I admire Shields’ artwork and I think he has a crazy yet intriguing mind. But, I’ve always had a hard time seeing past his lack of punctuation and editing. Yeah, you kind of need that to get a novel out in the world.

To be fair, this is self-published by Amazon Digital Services; it’s available only on the Kindle. So it seems to be more of a passion project for Tyler; I’ll be curious to read more reviews and see if people think it’s a worthwhile move for him, or if he should stick with photography.

A few months ago, Tyler also said of his coffee table book dream, “My hope with it is that if at any point I should ever die and this was the only book I ever put out that it could live on forever.” Well, he doesn’t have to worry about that anymore.

Crushable Quoteable: Brett Ratner Admits To Sex With Olivia Munn, Having A Small Penis

Posted: 04 Nov 2011 07:59 AM PDT

In her book Suck It, Wonder Woman!: The Misadventures of a Hollywood Geek, Olivia Munn mentioned a relationship with a big shot director. The section includes such romantic gems as a description of Olivia walking in on, “a grown man in an oversized shirt holding his undersized manhood in hands glistening with shrimp fat.” Now Brett Ratner has stepped forward to admit that he’s the director in question, but he’s done it in a way that manages to make him look even worse:

“I used to date Olivia Munn, I’ll be honest with everyone here. But when she was ‘Lisa.’ She wasn’t Asian back then, she was hanging out on my set of ‘After the Sunset,’ I banged her a few times, but I forgot her. Because she changed her name. I didn’t know it was the same person and so when she auditioned for me for a TV show, I forgot her, she got pissed off, and so she made up all these stories about me eating shrimp and masturbating in my trailer. And she talked about my shortcomings.”

Let’s break this down, shall we? So okay, she changed her name — Olivia is actually her middle name. But, “she wasn’t Asian back then”? How, exactly, does one switch-up her race like that? And then there’s the charming use of the term “banged,” which just makes Brett seem insecure. So maybe Olivia made up that story about Brett masturbating with shrimp fat lubricant, but talked about “my shortcomings.” That means he’s admitting the small penis thing is real.

Cutegreggator: Animals In Sombreros

All you need to throw a party is some cute animals in sombreros! Okay, that actually sounds sort of complicated. So, photos of animals in sombreros? And then it’s a party? Great. Glad we could help. You might want to wait until noon to start drinking, though.
