‘Breaking Dawn – Part 2′ teaser: truly intriguing or too dumb for words? Posted: 26 Mar 2012 09:38 AM PDT Last Friday when my daughter and I headed to the theater to watch The Hunger Games, she secured the essential top-row seats while I stood in the very long line for popcorn. Once in the theater, she informed me that I’d missed the new teaser trailer for The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2 but that it was no big deal because she was “so over it already.” At first, I was a bit shocked by this statement since she’s firmly Team Edward and even has a cardboard cutout of His Sparkliness in her bedroom. Now I know what she’s talking about because this teaser trailer is really lame. Here it is, and we’ll discuss afterwards: Okay, so CB and I both think the part where Bella is stalking that poor little deer is pretty damn funny, but I can’t grasp whether or not Summit Entertainment intends this to be funny or if they’re actually trying to make this movie seem scary. After all, the promotional strategy of Breaking Dawn – Part I was much sharper than the movie itself — and it was the trailer’s blatant hilarity of a busted headboard and Jacob ripping off his shirt and wolfing out that led to a $138 million opening weekend. In contrast, this teaser features more “romantic” glimpses of Bella’s wedding/engagement ring, Edward making another one of his silly “romantic” statements, and Taylor Lautner nipping out as Jacob. Maybe the next trailer will have more campiness to offer since this one fails miserably, but if you’ve read the books, you know as well as I do that nothing of great consequence will happen in this installment unless Summit starts adding sh-t to the story. Although I do remain vaguely mused with the part where Bambi’s about to get it. Not that this will necessarily pull people into the theater. Screenshots from YouTube

Frank Langella’s book trashes dead celebrities including Newman, Taylor, JFK Posted: 26 Mar 2012 09:22 AM PDT The Daily Mail is running some exhaustive excerpts from Frank Langella’s upcoming book, Dropped Names: Famous Men and Women As I Knew Them, in which he trashes countless now-deceased celebrities including Anne Bancroft, Yul Brynner, Paul Newman, and Liz Taylor. (I could go on.) Langella, 74, was nominated for an Oscar in 2008 for Frost/Nixon, and he’s got about three movies coming out this year, most notably the goofy-looking Robot and Frank. I’ve never really had an opinion on the guy until reading this. I remember seeing a profile of him during his Oscar campaign and he came across as very controlled and somewhat regal. Now I just think he’s a total a**hole. I can understand finding some people boring or hard to tolerate, but Langella barely has a kind word for anyone. In his world, everyone is self absorbed and boring, except his conquests, who are needy. Yes The Mail excerpted the most sensational parts, but they’re outrageous. Here’s just a sample, with more at the source: Rita Hayworth Rita Hayworth was 20 years older than him, almost permanently drunk and suffering from the onset of Alzheimer's disease. She was unable to remember her lines unless they were written in huge block letters and placed next to the camera. But actor Frank Langella, then 34, still fell for his co-star, and they began a passionate affair together on the set of the little-remembered 1972 Western called The Wrath Of God. The couple — playing mother and son in the film — spent every evening together in her rooms, working their way through endless bottles of bourbon and wine as she reminisced mournfully about the good old days. 'Don't stare at me, baby. You can see me in the movies,' she told him loftily one night, but when he left her for the last time after several weeks, Hayworth ran out to the car and pleaded: 'Don't leave me. I gotta have a man with me.' Richard Burton Richard Burton similarly failed to impress, though this time the venue was Langella's dressing room while he was starring in Dracula on Broadway in 1977. Single-handedly polishing off a bottle of Scotch which he had offered nobody else, a slurring Burton launched into a series of reminiscences about Britain's great theatre actors and recited lengthy sections of Dylan Thomas's poetry. As the hours wore on, Langella just wanted to get home. 'Could anyone, I wondered, be so unaware of what a crashing bore he had become?' he writes. 'There sat a man approximately 52 years of age, looking ten years older, dressed in black mink, with heavily applied pancake [make-up], under a tortured, balding helmet of jet black hair, grandly reciting tiresome poetry.' At least, says Langella, Burton wasn't terrified of playing roles that might make audiences question his heterosexuality — unlike Harrison and Laurence Olivier. (Burton told Langella he had 'tried' homosexuality once but 'didn't like it'.) John F. Kennedy As for John F Kennedy — who would have thought his idea of a perfect afternoon was listening to Noel Coward telling dirty jokes and belting out Mad Dogs And Englishmen on the piano? But a 24-year-old Langella was there to see it during a Cape Cod lunch party. He was so shocked by the President's 'fast and furious' belly laughs at Coward's wit that he feared JFK would have a heart attack. Later, he watched in awe as — with Secret Service men staring impassively from every doorway — JFK jumped onto a coffee table to dance as Coward played his most famous tunes and Jackie Kennedy sang along, knowing all the lyrics by heart. Before boarding his helicopter, JFK turned to Langella and asked: 'What do you think, Frank? Should I keep my day job?' Anne Bancroft He reserves particular ire for Anne Bancroft — an 'elegant' stage name, he says, which was 'about as suited to her as Cuddles would have been to Adolf Hitler'. He first met Bancroft, wife of comic actor Mel Brooks, and the actress who played the glamorous Mrs Robinson in The Graduate, in 1966 when they co-starred in a play. Although they were close friends for two decades, Langella soon realised she was 'consumed by a galloping narcissism that often undermined her talents'. She once told him how she had been in a New York department store when she saw a woman smiling at her. Bancroft felt 'inexplicably' attracted to the woman and wanted to go over and 'embrace and kiss her passionately' — until she realised she was looking into a mirror. Yul Brenner Self-love surely doesn't come more intense than this, but Yul Brynner apparently came close. No actor ever talked about himself so much, Langella recalls. And perhaps none had so little time for his fans. The shaven-headed star — 'never far from a full-length mirror' — once gave Langella and his former wife, Ruth, a lift in his 20ft-long white limo. On the drive, Brynner explained how he'd had a special lift — big enough to fit a car — installed in the Broadway theatre where he was starring in The King And I. His chauffeur could drive straight in and spare the star from having to 'deal with the public'. Brynner even showed off a pair of blinding flash lights which he kept handy 'in case blacks attack my car'. Paul Newman According to Langella, Paul Newman — long regarded as one of Hollywood's Mr Nice Guys — was a frightful bore, too. 'After dirty-sexy jokes, shop talk, cars or politics were exhausted, Paul was a pretty dull companion,' he recalls. 'Never rude or unkind, just dull.' In awe of his good looks, companions would instinctively think it their fault when he suddenly went quiet. The reality, says Langella, was that he had simply run out of anything to say. Like the statue of David, Newman was 'physically perfect but emotionally vacant'. Bette Davis Bette Davis was well into her 60s when, having seen Langella's films, she ordered their mutual agent to put them in touch. Though — as with his affair with Rita Hayworth — she was 20 years older, they had 'a number of racy conversations, not quite phone sex but certainly rife with foreplay,' he says. But nothing more ever happened as Davis always cancelled their dinner dates. Years later, he ran into her at a hotel and — enraged, he believes, that her privacy had somehow been invaded — she froze him out when he identified himself. Liz Taylor He had more luck with Elizabeth Taylor. Put in touch in 2001 by a mutual friend who said the Hollywood icon was desperately lonely, Langella reveals that their second date culminated in Taylor — then 69 — urging him to: 'Come on, baby, and put me to sleep.' After having to help her upstairs rather indecorously by pushing on her backside, he was taken aback by the clutter in her bedroom. It was filled with pictures of her dead ex-husbands, 'dozens and dozens' of bottles of witch hazel which she used to remove her make-up and a giant open box of chocolates on the bed. Despite knowing that a relationship with her was 'quicksand', he began a brief affair. He says she was: 'A small, sweet woman who wanted a man to be with her, protect her and fill a void as deep as the deepest ocean.' At one stage, she told him she wanted to leave Los Angeles and move with him to the East Coast of America to 'find a place that's normal', but Langella told her a relationship would never work because she would 'have him for lunch'. [From The Daily Mail] Oh no he did not disrespect John F. Kennedy, Liz Taylor and Paul Newman! Everyone gets tired at the end of the night, and Paul was human after all. People do not exist in this world just to entertain us. It’s not like it’s their job to regale us with funny stories and anecdotes for hours. After we get past a certain point in an early friendship, usually what happens next is that you exchange confidences, get to know each other, and do things together. The fact that everyone was such a massive bore to Langella suggests that he expected entirely one-sided relationships that others did not deliver on. In other words, he’s a selfish jerk. The stuff about how everyone was boring and self absorbed (pot meet kettle) was obnoxious, but I found it even worse the way he characterized his ex-lovers. He’s the one who decided to have relationships with these women. They couldn’t have all been so needy and desperate. He comes across as a user, who is now trashing women he took advantage of. He cowardly waited until they’d all passed away so that they wouldn’t be around to defend themselves. Langella also dated Whoopi Goldberg from 1996 to 2001. For those of you who watch The View, please let us know if she addresses this book by her ex at all.

Uma Thurman drinks wine, shows off her big baby bump in St. Bart’s Posted: 26 Mar 2012 08:45 AM PDT Uma Thurman went from "Is she pregnant?" to "OMG, she's extremely pregnant" in about six weeks it seems. Uma announced her pregnancy (by Arpad Busson) at the end of February. I'm guessing that by then, she was probably… like, four or five months along. These are new photos of Uma in St. Bart's over the weekend, where she is vacationing with her baby-daddy, and with her two kids by Ethan Hawke, Maya and Levon. That's little 10-year-old Levon kissing his mom's hand, it looks like. Isn't he adorable? Anyway, Uma looks very pregnant, which is why I'm assuming that she made the February announcement when she was already far along. Uma looks healthy and comfortable. She's also sipping a glass of a wine, something that may be slightly controversial. Some people think an odd glass of wine during a pregnancy is no big deal. Some people say no alcohol EVER while pregnant. Isn't it true that you really should avoid alcohol consumption in the first trimester, but later on in the pregnancy, it's not as potentially harmful? Or is that an old wives tale? So… whatever. Uma looks great. I hope her pregnancy is healthy, happy and uncomplicated. I hope she and Busson stick with each other. I hope that one day I can have this kind of fun-looking vacation. Photos courtesy of Fame/Flynet.

Lindsay Lohan crack-lied about the circumstances around her hit-and-run Posted: 26 Mar 2012 07:43 AM PDT I was surprised that last Friday's Lindsay Lohan post wasn't one of the most commented-on posts of the day. Are you tired of the Cracken and her incessant crack drama? Don't feel bad for her. She's not worth your pity. Anyway, as we discussed on Friday, Lindsay's hit-and-run victim is an Iraq War veteran, and he's apparently asking for a $100,000 payoff from the Cracken. So far, neither this dude – Thaer Kamal – or Lindsay have cooperated with the LAPD. It's like they're playing a game of Chicken. Cracked-out Chicken. Anyway, crackie has made sure that both Radar and TMZ lead with details about Kamal "changing his story" and "looking for a payoff" and anything else the family Lohan can throw at him to discredit him. Unfortunately, it seems like the Cracken has some credibility problems too. Shocking, I know. Who would have thought little, innocent Lindsay Lohan would be a cracked-out liar? The night of Lindsay Lohan’s alleged hit and run incident, the troubled actress claimed that she never went into the Sayer nightclub to wish a friend happy birthday because she was “freaked out by all the paparazzi,” however, RadarOnline.com has exclusively reviewed surveillance video that was taken from the alley that night, and there was absolutely no paparazzi or photographers there. As we previously reported Lohan, 25, was driving away from the Sayers Club in Hollywood almost two weeks ago in her new black Porsche when she says she was blocked by a horde of paparazzi and club patrons from the nearby Hookah Lounge. As Lindsay was trying to make a U-turn among the crowd at the late night hotspot, she allegedly hit the Hookah Lounge manager, Thaer Kamal, and his car and then sped off. Lindsay tweeted the next day, “Scrape? This is all a complete lie. I’ve been at community service. Last night, I attempted to wish a friend happy birthday, which I didn’t even get to do because I was freaked out by all of the paparazzi. These false accusations are absurd.” The surveillance video reveals that Lohan’s friend was initially behind the wheel of her brand new Porsche, and she was having trouble maneuvering out of the alley. LiLo, who was in the passenger seat, can be seen getting out of the car and trading places with the driver. As Lindsay was getting out of the Porsche to get in the driver's seat, Kamal is standing close to his car because he was concerned that his car was going to be hit. Kamal and Lohan clearly engage in conversation. There were absolutely no other paparazzi or photographers in the alley as Lohan claimed. Interestingly, there are also no photos of the alleged incident, which would have supported Lohan’s claim. Lindsay’s rep released a statement the day after the incident, which contradicts what the surveillance video shows, “Lindsay stopped by the club to drop in on a friend’s birthday party. When she arrived, there were so many photographers there that she decided to leave and never even got out of the car. At no point was there ever any indication that her car hit anyone or anything. We are confident this matter will be cleared up in the next few days.” “Make no mistake about it, Lindsay was definitely inside the Sayers Club that night. When Lindsay got out of the passenger seat of her Porsche to get in the driver's seat, she exchanged a few words with Thaer. He came out into the alley because he heard a car making a lot of noise, and he was concerned that his car was going to be hit,” a source tells RadarOnline.com. “When Lindsay got out of the car, he smelled alcohol on her breath. He didn’t think she should be driving, and told her so, and she replied ‘f*ck you.’ Lindsay hit Thaer with her car as she was attempting to get out of the alley and also bumped his car.” Kamal was standing out of range in the surveillance video when Lohan allegedly struck him with her car. As Lindsay’s car drives away, it stops briefly, and LiLo can be seen talking to what appears to be a lone female for about 2-to-3 minutes. After the conversation ends, the Porsche disappears from the surveillance footage. Lohan reportedly believes she has no worries heading into her final progress report hearing with Judge Stephanie Sautner on Thursday, March 29. However, the Mean Girls star could have some explaining to do about her version of events of the alleged hit & run incident. Furthermore, Kamal will be giving an extensive sit down interview with cops this week and giving investigators copies of the surveillance video, as well as medical records and other documents pertaining to that night. “Thaer just wants the truth to come out, that is all. He was injured and unable to work, since the incident. Thaer wants Lindsay to be held accountable for her actions,” the insider says. [From Radar] Damn. It sounds like Radar has seen the surveillance video, right? And I'd be willing to bet that this is close to the truth too – I've been wondering why there were no paparazzi photos of Lindsay on the night of the incident, especially considering the fact that she claims she was being swarmed. So where are the photos from the "swarming"? They don't exist. Because she's a crack liar and a drunk driver. Oh, and I totally believe Lindsay said "f–k you" to Kamal before she hit him with her car. It just sounds so Lohan. I'm surprised she didn't throw a cocktail at him from her car as well.

Michael Fassbender & James McAvoy at the Empire Awards: who would you rather? Posted: 26 Mar 2012 06:44 AM PDT You're not going to believe this, but I almost missed these new Michael Fassbender photos. I KNOW. You'd think that SOMEONE would have said something to me about my boyfriend being in London for last night's Empire Awards. Y'all are some mean bitches. Especially you sluts in London. Can I get some real-time alerts from you London girls when Fassy is in town, for the love of God? What, do you think you can keep him all to yourselves?! YOU CAN'T. So, Fassy was at the awards show, and he even won! He received the "Empire Hero" Award, and when he accepted his award, he said, "Well, this is kind of unusual, because I always wanted to be a superhero. The first job I wanted to do was be Superman, so a hero award makes it official now, thanks to Empire. It’s a magazine I actually always did read and follow as a film fan. And Jameson is my favourite whiskey, so this is pretty special!" *taking notes* Chris O'Dowd was there. I love this Irishman too, but seeing as how O'Dowd is coming in the wake of Fassbender, I'm not really hot for him. I think it's the pants. OMFG JAMES MCAVOY. Jesus, he looks GREAT. I would hit it. Hard. I'm not a big Tom Hiddleston person, but he looked really hot last night too. He knows how to wear a suit. And you know I love a ginger. Gary Oldman won Best Actor for Tinker Tailor Spy… I don't think I would hit it, but I do enjoy him. Photos courtesy of WENN.

Lourdes Leon, 15, was photographed smoking a cigarette in NYC Posted: 26 Mar 2012 06:16 AM PDT Madonna's oldest kid, Loudes Leon, is a smoker. Lourdes is only 15 years old! Damn. We don't have the photos, but you can see them here at The Mail. Lourdes holding a lit cigarette, looking very young and like she's trying to be so cool. I smoked my first cigarette when I was 17 years old… 17 is different then 15, in my opinion. Lola can't even drive yet, but she can get her hands on cigs? Madonna’s 15-year-old daughter Lourdes Leon appears to already have picked up a bad nicotine habit after she was pictured smoking a cigarette on Friday. The eldest daughter of the Material Girl was seen puffing away as she loitered around with male friends in New York. She had the cigarette in her hand as a pal lighted it for her and seemed very comfortable with it. The legal age for smoking in America is 18. Wearing a black and white mini dress with matching shoes, the 10th grade schoolgirl wore dark shades and her long hair loosely around her shoulders. At one point she even sneakily tried to hide the cigarette in her hand by holding it upside down as she walked along. Lourdes is following in her mother’s footsteps in many ways including her passion for fashion with the family’s clothing line Material Girl. But as Madonna was seen seductively posing with a cigarette in her latest music video Girl Gone Wild, it appears it may be a bad habit picked up closer to home. Madonna’s rep had denied the singer had started smoking again after pictures surfaced of her with what looked like a cigarette in hand while shooting her movie W.E. in 2010. But regardless of whether the 53-year-old was just posing with it or does still smoke, it may not be the best example to set for her four children. Lourdes will reportedly join her mother’s backing dancers when she kicks off her 50-country world tour in Israel in May. ‘It is the first time Lourdes will have appeared on stage with her mum,’ says a source. ‘There are risqué dancers and some blatantly sexual dance routines – but Madonna is really excited about Lourdes making an appearance.’ [From The Mail] I was wondering about Madonna smoking too – her latest video for "Girl Gone Wild" is full of cigarette smoking. I remember that Madonna used to smoke, like, way back in the day, but I wasn't aware that she was still doing it, or back to it. So maybe Lola got her cigs from Madge? I hope Madge nips this in the bud… although… Lola has at times seemed "too grown-up" for her age for several years now. When she was 13 years old, she was wearing pot-motif'd clothing, and when she was 14, she already had dyed hair, a face-full of makeup and her own press conferences for her fashion line. This girl has grown up very fast, and Madonna seems okay with it so far. Photos courtesy of WENN, Fame/Flynet.

Gerard Butler probably hooked up with Lindsay Lohan at the Marmont Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:49 AM PDT These are some photos of Gerard Butler last night at the Lakers game. Um… dear God. Gerry does NOT look like the picture of health, does he? I've been saying this ever since he got out of rehab (after only three weeks): the man isn't interested in being clean and sober right now. Right out of rehab, he was back at cocaine-soaked Hollywood parties, doing the rounds and looking increasingly bloated. Reports indicate that he's been seen out, "sweating profusely" and "slurring". And look at him in these photos – bloated, unhealthy, gross. Ugh. Damn, Butler! This is what happened when I left Gerry for Michael Fassbender. He went to a very dark place. An even bigger indicator that Gerry is not on a good path? He's spending time with Lindsay Lohan at the Chateau Marmont, which at this point is pretty much LL's ho stroll. Now, this is not the first time the Cracken might have been Butler'd – there were rumors about a Butler-Lohan hookup in 2009 (at an event in Morocco), as well as 2010 (partying and hooking up in LA). And now this… It was a (typically) star-studded night at West Hollywood’s Chateau Marmont. Lindsay Lohan may have (mostly) been preoccupied with her cell phone during her evening out with friends – she was glued to it, constantly texting, as were her pals – but that didn’t stop her entirely from taking notice of fellow celebs. The starlet jumped out of her chair and ran to give Emily Blunt a hug when she saw the British actress approaching. They shared some pleasant small talk – and smiles – before Blunt headed away with her friend. Soon, though, Lohan had another visitor: Gerard Butler, who arrived on the patio after midnight and sauntered over to the garden bar near where Lindsay and her friends were seated. The two were laughing and telling jokes, and Butler kept his hands on both sides of her chair as he leaned in close to talk. She was soaking up the attention and even asked him to come closer so she could whisper in his ear. Butler seemed to be in a relaxed, great mood as he chatted up Lohan and his friends. [From People Magazine] Ugh, it's like The Butler and Terry Richardson are the same person at this point. Gross. So… I'm completely over Gerry. I feel bad for the guy, I guess, but my patience and my pity for the man has pretty much run out. He doesn't seem like he's serious about getting clean, and he definitely doesn't seem interested in dating women with any kind of quality. Lindsay is the very definition of "low-hanging fruit" in LA. Oh, and it's said that Gerard invited his parents to LA so that they would keep their eye on him - several days ago, the family Butler was photographed at the Farmer's Market: Photos courtesy of WENN.

Mad Men Season 5 premiere: Zubi Zubi Zu and other spoilers Posted: 26 Mar 2012 05:21 AM PDT ******This entire post is full of SPOILERS for last night's season premiere of Mad Men. After an epic 16-month haitus, Mad Men returned last night with a two-hour premiere. I was literally counting down the minutes, so you can imagine how happy I am to simply see my Mad Men people, regardless of story. At one point, I was trying to figure out when the season began – yes, it's Memorial Day weekend, but what year is it? It's 1966, right? Right. So… the story has skipped along to about a year from when we last saw these people. What's happened to them? Don Draper has married his secretary, Megan, and made her a junior copywriter – Peggy is her boss, right? Because Peggy is pretty much Don's second in command. It doesn't seem like Megan is an amazing copywriter or anything, but she's also not actively bad, and it seems like Megan and Peggy are trying to be friends with each other. As for Don and Megan's marriage – you get several wildly different impressions of the marriage throughout the two-hour premiere. At first, I was like, "Aw, that's nice – Megan is a great step-mom to Don's kids, that why he married her." Then it was, "Ew, they come to work together every day and Don seems really different now and Megan's not that awesome at her job." And then after the party, I thought, "Oh, great. He married another woman who is absolutely clueless about what embarrasses him and what he thinks is appropriate." And finally, in that last sex scene… g-ddamn. Megan KNOWS him. She knows what makes him tick. Don and Megan understand each other in a different way than we're used to. After that sex scene, I kind of love Megan. Oh, and Don has told her everything, did you notice? She didn't even blink when she said "Dick Whitman." As for the other characters… Roger is still being an a–hole, but Roger gets some of the best lines, right? He's out of sorts, he's trying to steal Pete Campbell's leads, and it's like… Roger doesn't know how to do any of this. Oh, and he hates his wife. And she hates him a little bit too. As for Pete… did they put some kind of pillow on his body? In some scenes, he was looking fluffy. Pete and Trudy both looked middle-aged – and they're not! They're barely 30 years old, right? I also love that Pete's storyline was "He misses living in the city." He hates the suburbs. He loves the noise of the city, and he misses it terribly. He and Don Draper have traded lives in four seasons. Pete's house even looks like Don and Betty's old house. But my absolute favorite part of the premiere was Joan, Joan, Joan. This is 1966 – before "maternity leave." You find out that Joan did have Roger's baby (a little boy named Kevin), and that she "promised" to come back to Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce after she had the baby. It was nice seeing Joan with the baby, it was great to finally see her mom (who is a piece of work, just like Joanie), but the best part was when Joan brought the baby to work for a visit, and to make sure she still had a job to come back to. I absolutely LOVED her scene with Lane Pryce. It was magic! Lane is such an odd creature, but he said absolutely everything Joan wanted to hear, and he showed her a kindness and gentleness that I was not expecting from him. He made her feel… needed, but in a professional sense. And he even made a fuss over the baby, which was cute. Did you notice that all of the men in particular made a fuss over the baby? Don, Lane and… Roger. Was this the first time Roger saw his son? Is Roger helping Joan pay the bills? So many questions. There's a lot of other stuff to talk about, but I don't want to go on and on. Peggy is still with her journalist boyfriend. VietNam is heating up. The civil rights movement is upon New York. Megan singing and dancing was… interesting. I was embarrassed for her, that she put herself out there like that. It also reminded me as to just how young she is… but she’s going to stick with it, I think. I'm not sure how I feel about the tone of 1966 – only Megan and Peggy feel like the "young people" in the office, everybody else seems prematurely aged, and like they've skipped past the summer of love and have just resigned themselves to 1970s ennui. Like, half of the characters are still living in a John O'Hara novel and have of them are living in a Rick Moody novel. 'Mad Men' stills courtesy of AMC.

Have Rihanna and Ashton Kutcher been enjoying an eight-week fling? Posted: 26 Mar 2012 04:40 AM PDT Last week, Rihanna was spotted visiting Ashton Kutcher’s bachelor pad for four hours and departing at 4:00 in the morning. The logical conclusion is that these two were banging, and even though the idea is a head-shaking one, it’s rather believable because Rihanna has terrible, horrible, no good taste in men. Still, the possiblity of Ashton is more appealing than Rihanna hooking up again with the fists of Chris Brown. In the comments, some of you suggested that RiRi might actually be using Ashton’s place as a cover to hook up unnoticed with Chris, which would make sense because Ashton is still supposedly dating screenwriter Lorene Scafaria. I hope Rihanna isn’t dumb enough to get with Chris in any way, but who knows. And I can’t even begin to guess whether or not it’s actually true that Rihanna and Ashton have been seeing each other at all, let alone for a few months, as The Sun now reports: Rihanna has been sharing a secret fling for the past eight weeks — with Demi Moore’s ex Ashton Kutcher. The 24-year-old singer hit if off with “Two and a Half Men” hunk Ashton at a mutual pal’s house party in Los Angeles last December. The “Umbrella” singer is so besotted with Ashton, 34, that she has asked about joining his Kabbalah group. Rihanna and Ashton, who subscribes to the mystical religion, have been meeting up for a series of late-night trysts after the singer returned to LA to record her latest album. She dropped in at his mansion around midnight on Thursday and stayed for four hours before being taken away in a car. One source said: “The flirting began as soon as Rihanna and Ashton met and swapped numbers. That moved on to texts and arranging to meet. They snuck off to a Santa Monica hotel a few weeks ago. They are two single people having a fling, so thought it would be best to meet in secret. Rihanna has told friends he’s funny and cute. Both of them love a good time and think they’re too busy for anything serious just yet. She’s starting to enquire about Kabbalah sessions with his rabbi.” Ashton has been single since November when actress ex Demi Moore filed for divorce — after party girl Sara Leal said she’d slept with him on his sixth wedding anniversary. Ghost star Demi, 49 – who wore a Kabbalah string round her wrist – has since been treated for exhaustion, substance abuse and an eating disorder. A source said: “Ashton does not want to rub a new relationship in her face. She’s still vulnerable. He’s a good guy and, with all Demi’s recent health problems, people have forgotten that.” Rihanna hasn’t had a serious boyfriend since 22-year-old Chris Brown – who once beat her up. Although she comes from a strict Christian family in Barbados, friends say the singer is open to investigating Kabbalah. A source said: “Rihanna does not go to church any more because she’s simply too busy. She respects the religion enormously though. She is curious about Kabbalah so has started asking questions. She’s open to new things and has always been a very spiritual girl. If she and Ashton are getting really close, she wants to be able to understand it.” [From The Sun] That’s quite a strange little detail about Rihanna allegedly wanting to join in with the Kabbalah stuff, and if it was true, that would mean that RiRi foresees a serious thing with Ashton. Of course, I wasn’t sure whether Ashton would continue his affiliation with the (other) celebrity cult after he and Demi split, but here he is (according to Fame/Flynet pictures) outside the Los Angeles center last week. Naturally, he’s wearing all white because only douches do that. In other Rihanna news, RiRi posted the following images on her Twitter account with the following captions: “Gangsta goth geisha #thuglife #princessofchina.” She tries so hard to look tough, right?

Prince William & Duchess Kate went on a romantic ski holiday in Switzerland Posted: 26 Mar 2012 04:26 AM PDT I told you this would happen! I said it would happen last week, and my predication came to fruition. As soon as Prince William arrived home from his six/seven-week training exercise in the Falkland Islands, William and his wife arranged for yet another vacation. Now, I actually understand why they felt the need for a vacation this time around – William is probably tired, and he wanted to spend some quality time with his wife. As for Duchess Kate… well, she worked her fingers to the bone while William was away! I'm only being partly factitious too – she had two to three public events a week while William was away, and that's the most work she's ever done. She needed a vacation too! The only thing that surprises me is that it sounds like they just went away for a weekend – I would have expected something longer. It was on Switzerland’s beautiful, snowy slopes that Kate and William were pictured sharing their first public kiss. So a high-end ski resort in the Alps was the perfect place for the Prince to choose for a romantic weekend with his wife. The Duke of Cambridge is whisking Kate away on holiday to make up for missing Valentine’s Day, following a long six weeks apart in which he has been flying a helicopter for the RAF in the Falklands. The royal couple had a joyful reunion earlier this week at RAF Brize Norton in Oxfordshire. It ended a long spell apart, in which the Duchess of Cambridge has thrown herself into her role, making solo public appearances at military and charity events. The 30-year-old’s elegant poise has won widespread approbation, on outings that included two trips with the Queen, as part of the monarch’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations, and a hockey game with the GB squad at the Olympic Park. Kate and William were first seen skiing in Switzerland in 2004, and they had their first photographed kiss there two years later, with both holidays taking place at the resort of Klosters. This time, they will stay in an elegant chalet at Verbier, according to the Daily Mirror. The high-end resort has been popular with the royal family for years, with Prince Andrew and Prince Edward having celebrated birthdays there, and Prince Harry spending New Year’s Eve partying on its slopes. Princess Eugenie held a low-key 18th birthday party at Verbier. William, 29, has been serving as a Sea King pilot in the South Atlantic, while his wife of less than a year has admitted to missing him ‘desperately’. Last year the ski-mad couple reportedly cancelled a planned trip to the slopes over fears it would not be appropriate in recession-hit times. A Clarence House spokesperson yesterday declined to comment on their holiday plans. [From The Mail] A royal source told the Daily Mirror: “William missed Kate terribly when he was away. They spent Valentine’s Day apart and he has been thinking for some time how to make it up to his wife. He wants a reunion in the most romantic possible fashion. They’ve had some brilliant times skiing, and William decided a getaway in Switzerland, where they can wear goggles and hats and go around unnoticed, would be perfect. Kate was delighted when he eventually told her about his plans and cannot wait for the pair to spend some quality time together.” So maybe it's not just for a weekend? Maybe they'll be spending a week or so? As I said, I understand why this vacation, why now, etc. I'm sure they did miss each other, and I think it's sweet and lovely that they are prioritizing spending time together. But… Kate and William take SO many vacations. They always have! In their nine-year courtship, I swear, they took about a dozen vacations a year. Substantial, two-week vacations at a time, which add up to quite a lot of “downtime”. Photos courtesy of WENN, Fame/Flynet.
