| The Pregnant Man Thinks Chaz Bono Robbed Him Of His Spot On ‘Dancing With The Stars’ Posted: 31 Aug 2011 11:09 AM PDT Never underestimate a not-very-famous person’s drive to piggyback on some perceived association with a sort-of-famous person. Thomas Beatie, the trans guy who first made headlines in 2008 for being both legally male and pregnant, is now saying he thinks Chaz Bono beat him out for a spot on Dancing With The Stars. Via TMZ:
Correct me if I’m wrong, but doesn’t Dancing With The Stars try to fulfill its promise of “stars” at least somewhat? Chaz Bono might be kind of a B-list celebrity, but he still ranks above Thomas Beatie, no? And the so-called “Pregnant Man” is not even pregnant anymore, so he really should stop calling himself that. I know “The Man Who Was Once Pregnant But Is Now Just A Dad” doesn’t sound as good, but it might be a bit more accurate. Look at it this way, Mr. Six Pack: you are already, as you say, an athlete. Maybe Chaz Bono needs this more than you. He has, in the past, expressed a desire to get in better shape, so maybe this is the kick in the ass he’s been looking for. With training this intense, I’m sure Chaz will look and feel significantly different by the time the show is done taping. Share the six pack wealth, my friend. Related posts: Post from: Crushable  |
| Kreayshawn Claims She Was Underage in Leaked Nude Photos Posted: 31 Aug 2011 11:00 AM PDT Rapper and VMA Best New Artist nominee Kreayshawn‘s twitter was hacked the other day by a group going by the name Hollywood Leaks who used her account to tweet anti-Semitic statements and release nude photos. Now Kreayshawn’s saying that the photos were taken when she was underage, which adds adds the offense of spreading child pornography the the crimes of the hackers. From Kreayshawn’s tumblr:
The hackers claim to be an offshoot faction of the notorious 4chan group Anonymous. Last week, the group hacked Julianne Hough’s cell phone and released photos and contact info. In a video manifesto, they declared an anti-Hollywood mission statement: “Attention Hollywood we are Anonymous. We have been watching you. We have been listening to you. You have been allowed to run free too long.” However, it also appears the hackers were motivated by “LULZ”: Kreayshawn’s not taking the attack lightly. In a follow-up Tumblr post, she complained:
The authorities are apparently on the case — so hopefully they’re catch the hackers before any more of Hollywood leaks out. Post from: Crushable  |
| The Producers of What to Expect When You’re Expecting Don’t Trust Whitney Port to Act Posted: 31 Aug 2011 10:58 AM PDT
Us’ source says that Whitney — who we all know thanks to her naive adventures on The Hills and The City — will have one line in one scene. She and NBA player Dwayne Wade will play themselves in whatever this mindblowing sequence will be. It’s unclear which of the pregnant ladies she interacts with: There’s motherhood boutique owner Elizabeth Banks, soon-to-be adoptive parent Jennifer Lopez, accidentally-pregnant Anna Kendrick, and blissful mother-to-be Brooklyn Decker. But then again, most of these awful ensemble movies have celebrities playing themselves, so obviously the producers will find a spot for her. What’s funny is that Whitney didn’t make the cut to play a supporting character. She’s not enough of a brand as a fashion designer/reality star that it would logically make sense for her to represent herself, but that must have been the producers’ only choice since she can’t act. The one thing she does have going for her is the amazing facial expressions she would make on her two MTV shows… let’s hope her one line includes a gaping look of surprise. God, I miss this show. We’ll get to see dear Whit on the big screen on May 5, 2012. Post from: Crushable  |
| Gallery: 7 Divorced Celebrity Couples Who Got Remarried (or Re-Engaged) Really Fast Posted: 31 Aug 2011 10:22 AM PDT LeAnn Rimes‘ ex-husband Dean Sheremet just got remarried — but doesn’t it seem like just last month that LeAnn left him for Eddie Cibrian? And wait, didn’t she just get married to Eddie? Wait until the ink dries on the divorce papers, guys! For some reason, celebrity couples who get divorced seem super-eager to tie the knot with their next boyfriend/girlfriend — here are seven divorces where at least one party was walking down the aisle within a year.

| Video: Are You Ready For The Atlanta Zoo’s Tiger Cub Cam? Posted: 31 Aug 2011 10:17 AM PDT Following the rousing success of the shiba inu puppy cam (which, by the way, is back!), the Atlanta Zoo thought it would be a good idea to broadcast the day-to-day lives of their newly born Sumatran tiger cubs, Sanjiv and Sohni, via live video feed. The first tiger cubs to be born at that zoo in more than a decade, they are a boon to their species’ total population, which is estimated to be about 300 worldwide. The feed can be viewed over at the zoo’s website, but you can only see the cubs when they’re in the den with the camera in it, which is sad. Nonetheless, it says that “as the cubs become more mobile, they'll explore both dens more freely,” which is promising. The feed will be broadcast constantly until the tiger subs are ready to be exhibited to the public, which seems like a pretty good way to promote it. In addition to being super fun to watch, the feed will hopefully build up the public’s interest in these big cats and what can be done to save them in the wild. So it’s cute and educational and helpful. They really do need to figure out how to keep the camera on the cubs at all times, though. Those donations aren’t going to make themselves.

| Giving Zooey Deschanel’s New Girl a Fair Shake Posted: 31 Aug 2011 09:26 AM PDT
Well, I want to make a case for Zooey's upcoming show, New Girl. She plays a sweet, naïve, safe-for-television oddball forced back into the single life. We all know the dating scene is full of sharks, but luckily her character Jess finds protection in three male roommates — who initially invite Jess to live with them because she has supermodel friends. (Men: turns out you CAN live with 'em… as long the company they keep is smoking hot and Size 0.) My gut reaction to this promo was "oh, please no." But upon repeat viewings, I had a change of heart. Sure, it's annoying that this girl-in-break-up-mode defaults to crying all the time. But to be fair, finding out your live-in boyfriend is cheating on you while you're butt-naked sounds pretty awful. I'm not sure I would seek solace in something so cliché as Dirty Dancing, but there'd probably be gallons of tears, Hugh Grant and nachos involved. And even though the promo makes a sexual foursome seem inevitable by Season 3, there's something sweet about Jess' relationship with her roommates. They're more "big brothers," than "Pygmalions." I get it, Hollywood; the healing powers of the sisterhood don't equal sexy television. So thank you for at least planting her in a flower patch of Chandlers instead of Joey Tribbianis. (Sidenote: I thought we as a collective gender had moved past "Time of My Life," but I'm nothing if not a sucker for spontaneous restaurant sing-a-longs (see: My Best Friend's Wedding, The Sweetest Thing). So, I'll let this one slide.) The thing that stuck out most to me is Zooey's overall delivery.It feels incredibly awkward, and not intentionally so. But it's also kind of charming. If it helps make the character believable, then the end justifies the means. So let's all hang up our snarky pants for a few episodes, and give New Girl a fair shake. While some might see “trying to hard” I see “eager to please,” and eagerness can be quite endearing. Maybe, New Girl is Zooey's new chance at redemption. Is it so hard to at least let her try?

| Style Crush: Charlotte Gainsbourg Posted: 31 Aug 2011 08:49 AM PDT I think that if I could steal anyone’s wardrobe and make it my own, it would be Charlotte Gainsbourg‘s. None of it would fit me (I am two feet tall), but I’d just open up my closets and stare at the beautiful dresses until they came to life and joined me in whimsical conversation. Guys, I just wrote a Michel Gondry movie! A few weeks ago we Style Crushed Charlotte’s mother, Jane Birkin, and now we’re showing how taste runs in the family. Post from: Crushable  |
| Video: George Lucas Makes Darth Vader a Wimp in the Rereleased Return of the Jedi Posted: 31 Aug 2011 08:41 AM PDT No matter how much of a whiny prettyboy Hayden Christensen made Anakin Skywalker in the Star Wars prequels, we could always comfort ourselves with the knowledge that Darth Vader was still the most badass sci-fi villain. No longer! When it comes to rereleasing the original Star Wars trilogy, George Lucas is like a dissatisfied plastic surgeon: He keeps making tweaks and changes, most of which make the overall movie droop and show its age like a bad boob job. It’s not a huge deal if he replaces puppet Yoda with a CGI version, but when the choices actually change the characters, then we have a problem. Today’s victim: Darth Vader. Badass News confirms that this is real: In Return of the Jedi when the Emperor is torturing Luke with lightning bolts, now Vader says, “No!” before he picks up the Emperor and throws him down the power shaft to his death. If it were any other word, it wouldn’t be bad, but the most laughable part of Revenge of the Sith (the third of the awful prequels) is when Vader first gets his scary black suit and is mortified at his inhuman appearance — yelling, you guessed, it “NOOOOOO!” Its ridiculousness earned it a spot among Internet memes; see below. What made Vader’s decision to betray his master so cool was that he didn’t show any reaction until he surprised everyone by switching back to the light side of the Force. And now that we’ve seen the prequels, we know how much of a mentor the Emperor actually was to Vader. We didn’t need this lame add-on! Basically, Vader is now a pussy.

| Alec Baldwin Is Not Running For Mayor Of NYC…Yet Posted: 31 Aug 2011 08:36 AM PDT Alec Baldwin, of the can-do-anything Baldwins, seems like a shoo-in for mayor of New York. After all, he’s got everything required of a New York mayor: he’s rich and famous, he heads a multinational corporation, and he’s already an iconic part of the New York City zeitgeist. Yes, I am conflating him with Jack Donaghy. What of it? He might even be able to trick some Republicans into voting for him because they can’t tell the difference between reality and TV, either. Unfortunately, it seems like we’re going to have to wait a while for Baldwin to replace mayor-for-life Mike Bloomberg. When asked about his ambitions on Letterman last night, Baldwin dodged the question nicely, saying he would like to be mayor, but he would not like to have to do the things one must do in order to become mayor. Perhaps he hopes to attain the office via spontaneous military coup? Or maybe King Bloomberg will appoint him his successor? Anyway, it’s all pretty abstract, because at this point, he’d rather be spending time with his hot, 27-year-old yoga instructor girlfriend:
Hurricanes don’t require plows, honey. But fair point otherwise. Still, he has yet to rule it out completely. “Baldwin for mayor in 2014″ has a nice, futuristic ring to it. Sigh. Related posts: Post from: Crushable  |
| Hot Shot: Henry Cavill Wears His Superman Outfit Well Posted: 31 Aug 2011 08:13 AM PDT Some images of new Superman Henry Cavill from the Man of Steel set have hit the web, and the 28-year-old English actor sure does wear his silly blue suit well. So well, in fact, that we can see every single one of his body parts. (We have X-ray vision and also his outfit is very form-fitting.) But the question remains: how does Mr. Cavill look in nerdy glasses? We’ll reserve our final judgment on Henry until we see him as Clark Kent. (via) Post from: Crushable  |
The headline on Us Magazine’s website is “
Everybody take a knee, and listen up: Now I know you're all a little tired of "quirky girl syndrome." And when the queen bee of emotionally confused girl-women got herself a television show on FOX, you probably rolled your eyes faster than a pixie can weave a dreamcatcher from toothpicks and wishes. Yes, there are people out there who like her – those She & Him albums aren't half bad! But for many, Zooey Deschanel is the yeast of cute female celebrities – natural, familiar and something you want to go away as quickly as possible.
