Robert Pattinson Is Intimidated By Taylor Lautner’s Body In Twilight

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 10:47 AM PDT

You would think that Robert Pattinson wouldn’t have much to worry about, looks-wise, since he currently embodies every teenage girl’s (and many adult women’s) daydream. It would follow, then, that his long-awaited sex scene with real-life girlfriend Kristen Stewart in Breaking Dawn, Part 1 was a cinch to shoot, right?

Nope—and not because the fans have incredibly high expectations for the scene where Bella finally loses her virginity and Edward breaks the bed. In August, Robert told the German magazine TV Movie that his real fear is that he won’t match up to his Twilight co-star/on-screen rival Taylor Lautner:

TV Movie: Be honest: Was the film sex difficult for you?

Rob: Oh yes! I felt really uncomfortable.

TV Movie: Too many people on set?

Rob: No, a fear had rather something to do with Taylor and his fantastic body. Jacob, as a werwolf, has bared all already in the last two films. And to be honest, I can't keep up with him.

He’s right: Jacob’s body has become a mythical thing, known to incite gasps when he just raises his arms and full-out screams and applause when he rips off his shirt. The producers smartly planted those seeds early in the first Twilight film — when Taylor Lautner was still gawky and in danger of losing his job if he didn’t bulk up in time for the sequel — so that now every new shirtless scene builds upon the last.

In contrast, I can remember only one time when Robert went shirtless — in New Moon, above — and it wasn’t that sexy. Rob’s got the deck stacked against him: That chalky white vampire makeup, and the fact that he was trying to kill himself by stepping out into sunlight in Rome. Suicidal shirtlessness won’t get the ladies excited as much as “I just got Bella’s wedding invitation and I’m so enraged” shirtlessness.

But let’s be honest: No matter if he looks scrawny or like he was locked in a closet compared to Taylor’s healthier, more chiseled physique, Rob will win out because the fans will be watching Edward and Bella do it. And in the world of Twilight, that’s the sexiest thing of all.

Courtney Stodden Was Kicked Out Of A Pumpkin Patch For Being Too Sexual

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 10:33 AM PDT

Don’t you hate it when you’re just trying to spend a nice afternoon at the pumpkin patch with your family — picking out jack-o-lanterns and going for hay rides — but you’re too distracted by the 17-year-old in daisy dukes dry-humping her 51-year-old husband to get anything done? Folks at a pumpkin patch in Santa Clarita had this experience over the weekend, when Courtney Stodden and Doug Hutchinson took their inappropriate relationship gourd-hunting.

Evidently, the barely-clothed Courtney was straddling Doug and posing provocatively amid the pumpkins, and other patrons of the patch where understandably creeped-out. So they complained to management and the duo was asked to leave. You can’t say Courtney didn’t warn you:

“Ready to hit the hot & heavy hay this afternoon in preparation for Halloween – YEEHAW! XOs, Love, Your All American Girl ;)”

James Franco Put His Bare Ass On A Magazine Cover

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 09:47 AM PDT

You know, I always kinda figured I’d see James Franco‘s ass one day, but I was pretty sure it would be in person — like at some super cool party in the Hollywood Hills where everyone would drink too much champagne and decide to go skinny dipping. And James’d cannonball over Chloe Sevigny‘s head, and we’d all laugh and laugh and be best friends forever.

Something like that, not on the cover of a magazine, in close-up. But James pulled down his trousers for Flaunt Magazine and revealed what I very much hope is a real tramp stamp. Here’s a choice quote from Q&A wherein James addresses his subversive, shocking art:

“We are post-shock in a sense, but it all depends on context. Anything can be found on the internet, but when you take something that is familiar in one context and manipulate it, and put it in a new context, it can be a shock because it defies its former categorization. That is the kind of shock that I'm interested in—not shocking content, but defamiliarizing juxtapositions and redefinitions. I want to look underneath things, to show things in new lighting, in order make new sense of them.”

Baring your butt’s a pretty literal way of “looking underneath things,” but even so, I sincerely hope James Franco has now made new sense of his own ass.

Madonna’s Brother Is Homeless, Lives Under A Bridge

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 09:36 AM PDT

A recent article in The Michigan Messenger about the homeless population in Traverse City, MI uncovered a strange and sad piece of celebrity gossip: Madonna‘s brother, Anthony Ciccone, has been homeless for over a year now, despite having one of the wealthiest entertainers in the world for a sister. According to him, he became homeless after losing his job at his father’s winery a little over a year ago. I guess nobody told him that the proper back-up plan for a celebrity sibling is to be a DJ. The dirt and scruff would only add to his “downtown” authenticity!

"My family turned their back on me, basically, when I was having a hard time," he told the paper. "You think I haven't answered this kind of question a bazillion times — why my sister is a multibazillionarie, and I'm homeless on the street? Never say never. This could happen to anybody."

He goes on to describe the effects of hypothermia on the human body, which sound pretty awful. There’s even a picture of his sad, nerve-damaged toes.

I’m sure there’s more going on here than meets the eye; you have to screw up pretty badly to get fired from your own family’s winery, and that line about “having a hard time” seems like it could be a euphemism for “having a hard time with alcohol/drug addiction.” But still! It would cost Madonna almost nothing from her perspective to make sure the guy doesn’t freeze to death, so why won’t she do that? She could get him a little apartment with heat, and maybe some grocery store gift cards, and that would pretty much ensure he didn’t die while he was figuring out his substance abuse problems. Conversely, she could pay for rehab. She’s put another of her brothers through rehab in the past, but seemed to cut him off after one or two tries. I know I’m not privy to the inner workings of the Ciccone family, but barring some serious abuse when she was a child, I’m not sure what her brother could have possibly done that was so terrible she no longer feels obligated to care whether he lives or dies.

I will post an update if Madonna’s reps respond to this story.

Chord Overstreet Is Coming Back To Glee!

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 09:10 AM PDT

The last we heard about Chord Overstreet‘s tenuous position on Glee, fan campaigns were using Twitter and iTunes to keep Sam Evans part of New Directions. And while season 3 has started up without him, TVLine now reports that Chord has signed back on to be a recurring character. Better yet, his return will be at the beginning of December!

What’s interesting is that initially Chord turned down the Glee producers’ offer to be part-time, because for him it was series regular or nothing. Instead, he decided to focus on his music. But something must have changed, because when Glee came back with a more concrete (but still part-time) offer, he said yes. He’ll be back on the show starting with episode 8.

While TVLine has a statement from Chord — “I had the best time on Glee and couldn't be more excited to be returning” — he hasn’t yet confirmed the news on his Twitter.

At least according to creator Ryan Murphy, there doesn’t seem to be any bad blood. "We love Chord and have always said that we wanted him back," he told TVLine. "So here's an early Christmas present for all the Gleeks—Sam is coming back to McKinley, and just in time for sectionals!"

Forget sectionals—we want to see if Mercedes (Amber Riley) is pissed at Sam for moving away, or if he’ll be jealous of her new boyfriend.

Ashton Kutcher Calls Out The Blogosphere For Speculating On His Marriage To Demi Moore

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 08:56 AM PDT

Oh, celebrities—why do you torture us with vague responses to rumors about you without actually answering any questions we have? Over the weekend, Ashton Kutcher posted a video where he rambled about “the bastardizing of truth,” using examples from kabbalah teachings. But really it was just a way for him to go after blogs and social media, especially since everyone has been wondering whether his marriage to Demi Moore is over lately.

The way Ashton explains it, during the time in which this kabbalah anecdote is from, it was a lot more difficult for religious teachings to go from just being written to being actually published and distributed. “Because publishers had a limited amount of inventory,” he says, “they held great scrutiny over what they would be able to print. They were the gatekeepers of the truth. If something came in and it seemed as if it weren’t the truth, then they wouldn’t print it because their reputation was on the line.”

But since there’s almost no cost to churn out blog posts, anyone can write anything, and it doesn’t have to be the truth. It’s a pretty damning thing to say about the Internet, but not the first time we’ve heard such criticism. When I tell people that I’m a professional blogger, I definitely get skepticism about how “anyone can blog” and how do I know if I’m telling the truth or playing some worldwide game of Telephone.

The truth is, we don’t always know. We and other blogs do report on gossip and rumor and “inside sources,” but eventually we piece the stories together, even if we have to go down a few dead-end routes to get there.

The media is in a weird place when it comes to situations like Ashton and Demi’s. Obviously we’re going to comment on it because their relationship has been so public for so long. And the pair have been so active in sharing their courtship that when there are strains at public events or Twitter unfollows, things look increasingly off. But if they want the facts reported correctly, then the only way they’re going to get that is to come forward and explain exactly what’s going on: Are they in an open marriage? Did he cheat? Of course, that obligation is an even greater invasion on their privacy. So, it’s a catch-22.

Ashton leaves us with this saying: “A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth leaves someone’s lips.” Of course, he could save everyone a bunch of time and energy by releasing that truth… now.

No? OK then, we’ll just be here waiting.

Jennifer Lopez Cries During Her Own Concert

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 08:47 AM PDT

You know when you’ve just gone through a bad breakup, but the rest of the world hasn’t stopped, so you drag your ass to work, and something reminds you of your ex? And you end up sobbing quietly in the bathroom with your feet pulled up so no one knows you’re in there? If that’s happened to you, my condolences, but you should know you’re in good company; the same thing happened to Jennifer Lopez this past weekend, only, you know, on a much more fabulous scale.

During a sold out performance for 10,000 onlookers at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Casino, J-Lo was overcome with emotion and had to stop for a minute while she was singing her new song “One Love.” But as you can see in this video, the crowd cheered. “Don’t be sad, J-Lo! You’re the greatest!” was what they were trying to say. This helped her find the will to go on, despite feeling sad about her divorce from Marc Anthony.

When asked about the incident by Access Hollywood, she had this to say:

After I sang the song, I'm standing there, and I realized that I did bare a little bit of my thoughts in this song. I also acted it out, kind of, for the audience. The way they received it was very touching…I think that they felt what I felt, which is, you know, I'm just a girl, just like everybody else, trying to find my way. I felt like they got that, and they understood it, and we were all like one at that moment.

Aaaw, J-Lo. I feel you, girl. The next time I find myself all crumpled up in a bathroom stall, I will think about how you’ve been through the same thing, sort of, and I will get out there and take my lunch break with pride.

5 Facts About Once Upon A Time‘s Prince Charming Josh Dallas

Posted: 24 Oct 2011 07:20 AM PDT

ABC‘s Once Upon a Time pilot last night was a solidly middle-of-the-line show: With the shifting timelines, it set up two really interesting arcs for this season, of how the fairytale characters made the evil witch curse them, and the question of it their modern-day (and amnesiac) selves will ever discover their true identities.

Mostly we had an eye out for Josh Dallas, who plays the characters with the least descriptive names — Prince Charming and John Doe — and yet managed to make them into characters that we’re curious to find more about as the season progresses. While we wait to see if the show delivers on its pilot, here’s what you need to know about Storybrooke’s prince.

1. He’s married to actress Lara Pulver, who you might recognize as Sookie’s fairy godmother in season 3 of True Blood.

2. As is starting to be the case with struggling freshman shows, Josh is marshalling the troops on Twitter, along with castmates Ginnifer Goodwin, Jennifer Morrison, and Lana Parilla. You can find him @JoshDallas.

3. While this is his first fantasy role, he’s had plenty of training in medieval roles. Josh spent the last decade in London working with the Royal Shakespeare Company. During that time, he acted in famous theater companies like The Young Vic, the Royal National Theatre, and The English National Opera.

4. Only five days after he got back to the States, he got the call that he had been offered the role of Thor’s buddy Fandral in Thor. He grew some pretty ridiculous facial hair for the part, which may or may not have helped his appeal with the fans. See, rumor had it that Marvel Studios cast him only because Stuart Townsend dropped out last-minute.

5. His Prince Charming has more character than the bland dudes we’ve seen in Disney movies—for one, he can fight with a baby in his arms. Talking about his take on such an iconic character, he told Digital Spy, “I can’t think, I’m playing this iconic character. You have to play a person who has certain situations like everybody else, emotions just like everybody else, and he reacts to that the way that he does. If I thought that I was playing Prince Charming every day, the pressure would become too great and I would curl up in fetal position in the corner.”
