Adam Levine is a douche in Details: “You know what yoga is good for? Fuuuu-k-ing.” Posted: 31 May 2012 09:08 AM PDT
Well Adam pontificates at length to Details about why he’s so successful with women, and how his attitude (douche) has to do with growing up with jilted women or something. He’s compensating for something, and I don’t feel sorry for any woman who falls for his total b.s. Here’s some of what he said, and thanks to Evil Beet for condensing it down for us:
Whatever, Adam. I just hope that this interview helps warn any model with two brain cells to rub together that she should stay far, far away from this douche. This is some John Mayer pre-voice losing sh*t. This guy is believing his own hype, and he will probably continue to believe it until he also faces some sort of life setback that makes him realize he’s a jerk. Some guys never have that epiphany, and it’s long overdue for Adam. Also, I agree with the Emily at Evil Beet: that’s nice what he said about Christina. But given how he goes on about what a charmer he is, I don’t buy that he’s sincere at all. Creep. |
Rob Pattinson goes to Paris, reveals new life mantra: “Don’t be a p-ssy.” Posted: 31 May 2012 08:44 AM PDT Here are some new photos of Robert Pattinson and director David Cronenberg at the Paris premiere of Cosmopolis. Sparkles looks… subdued. Tired. He probably is tired from Cannes, and lots of press interviews and now he's looking at a few weeks more of promotional work on the film. Maybe he's tired because Cosmopolis hasn't been getting the best reviews? Most critics dislike the film – you can read The Hollywood Reporter's review here. Sparkles isn't getting all or even most of the blame, although I'm sure the criticism does sting. As for the potential box office… the film is too… complicated for Robert's fan base, and I suspect they'll avoid the film like the plague. Which is sad for him, because I kind of hoped that Sparkles would be the one with the bigger and better career after Twilight. But it's looking more and more like Kristen will have a better career. Of course, that's just how it looks to me now. Given the right role, I think Sparkles could (no joke) SHINE (or sparkle, what have you). Anyway, Sparkles has a new interview with Shortlist Magazine – you can read the full thing here. Some highlights:
LOL, I kind of love that his new life mantra is "Don't be a p-ssy." Because I get the feeling he is, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. He's a sweet guy. He's not violent or nasty and he's not a ceaseless self-promoter. He doesn't need to be. By the way, the MTV Movie Awards are this Sunday. GROAN. Ugh. As you can imagine, Kristen Stewart and Sparkles are up for a bunch of awards, including Best Kiss. And guess what? Sparkles is going to be a no-show! He's not going to make an appearance! OOOH NOOOO. What will the Twihards do?!?! |
Angelina Jolie meets with UK Foreign Secretary to discuss sexual violence in war zones Posted: 31 May 2012 08:01 AM PDT Earlier this week, Angelina Jolie made a public appearance in London. She's in England to begin work on Maleficent, which should be starting soon. In the meantime, Angelina decided to use her new position as "Special Envoy to the High Commission on Refugees" to do a photo op with the UK's Foreign Secretary William Hague and give a public speech about sexual violence in war zones. You can see photos from her visit to the Foreign Office here, at The Mail. Here are some videos: This is part of what Angelina said:
Apparently, this is all part of a new initiative by the Cameron government, working in conjunction with the UN, non-profit charities, human rights campaigns and medical volunteers – the hope is to gather more evidence of human rights crimes to make better legal cases for the trial and conviction of those who use rape and sexual abuse as weapons of warfare. I don't know if Angelina Jolie has been involved with this for a while and she approached William Hague, or if this is an initiative thought up by the Foreign Office and they asked Angelina to be there. My guess is that this is an initiative Angelina has been involved with for a while, and the Cameron government was recently brought on board. Either way it went down… this woman makes me proud to be a Jolie-stan. |
Pregnant Anna Paquin at the True Blood premiere: cute or sloppy? Posted: 31 May 2012 07:34 AM PDT
Spoilers for True Blood’s upcoming season At the premiere last night, pregnant Anna Paquin wore Rachel Comey. I’m not a fan of the asymmetric neckline, which looks sloppy to me. Coupled with the goofy hemline, it just looks like someone cut out random shapes of striped sequin fabric and then sewed them haphazardly to some polka dot mesh. I’m surprised this isn’t Stella McCartney. It’s like someone got drunk and tried to copy Stella’s design. Anna doesn’t look pregnant from the front at all, but from the side you can see she’s showing. I have mixed feelings about Anna, and wish she would look happier on the red carpet. Stephen’s hair looks way too dark, right? Janina Gavankar was ridiculous in this puffy very short tin foil ice skater gown. Look at the ruffled layers on this thing. Janina plays shapeshifter Luna, Sam Merlotte’s love interest. I don’t really like her character and now that I see her taking this dress seriously my impression of her is confirmed. Check out her orange platform pumps. Hideous! Look at Terry! Todd Lowe is really hot to me. He’s such a good actor. I’m looking forward to seeing more of him. I also find Chris Bauer, Andy Bellefleur, oddly attractive. He plays bumbling so well, but there’s something sexy about the man. Am I alone in this? In contrast, Joe Manganiello doesn’t do it for me at all. Check out his man scarf hanging out the bottom of his tiny vest thing. He’s superficially hot, but he seems like such a tool. Sam Trammell is a cutie though, despite that goofy dot shirt. He needs some more scruff to complete the look, and that hairstyle isn’t doing him any favors. He and his girlfriend had twin boys last August. Deborah Ann Woll is a great actress and seems like sweet person, but I’ve rarely seen her get her red carpet style spot on. She’s so gorgeous too. Here’s Carrie Preston, Arlene, with her real life husband, Lost actor Michael Emerson. They’re so cute together! I love her on the show. Nelsan Ellis, that handsome devil. He’s also an incredible actor. Askars! Can’t wait to hear his sexy voice again. Kristin Bauer with her squinty husband. Her character Pam is awesome, but she doesn’t look well put together here. It’s the dress in combination with that 70s hair. And I’ll end with Tara Buck, who plays Ginger, the trashy human who guards Fangtasia during the day. This dress is awesome and hilarious. I just love it. photo credit: WENN.com |
Kristen Stewart: “Snow White is neither better or worse than anything I’ve done” Posted: 31 May 2012 07:30 AM PDT These are new photos of Kristen Stewart arriving in New York City yesterday. She had been in LA, where she did a Q&A with Bad-Pants McGee and she also attended a screening for Snow White & The Huntsman. I'm hoping that we get an actual big premiere tonight, but I can't find out if one is scheduled. I think Charlize is still in New York too, so chances are pretty good that something will go down tonight. As for Kristen's travel outfit – those are the same busted skinny jeans she always wears. I think the kicks are new. And God help me, I LOVE that top. I want that top in all of the colors. Kristen appeared on the Today Show this morning. Here's the video:
Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy Her dress is cute. But she's just so awkward… which makes me ask, once again, why does her publicist do this to her? She needs to do more print interviews and pre-taped talk show pieces. She can't do it live. In other Kristen news, she spoke to the Los Angeles Times about whether or not she's trying to distance herself from Bella Swan:
"Everything I do needs to be really important. ['Snow White'] is neither better or worse than anything I’ve done…" Oh God. That does not bode well. I know what she was trying to say, obviously. Asking an actor to rate their own work in levels of importance is like asking a parent to choose their favorite child. I think Kristen was attempting to be gracious about the Twilight franchise and the doors that have opened to her because of it. But really she wants to get far, far away from Bella. |
Is Gwen Stefani & Gavin’s marriage in crisis & are they considering a separation? Posted: 31 May 2012 06:58 AM PDT Every so often, the tabloids start a round a rumors about the state of Gavin Rossdale and Gwen Stefani's marriage. The last time it happened (to my memory) was back in January – there were several reports indicating that Gavin's past (with a drag queen, with his daughter Daisy Lowe, and with Courtney Love, for example) was coming back to haunt him, and Gwen was not happy. Days after the rumors, Gwen and Gavin seemed to be photographed constantly. This is their M.O. Whenever there's bad gossip about them, they are magically photographed in lots of family-oriented photo ops. Well, I noticed that we seemed to have a lot of photos of Gwen and Gavin over the holiday weekend, and I wondered what was up. It seems like the British tabloids are beginning a new round, and this week's American tabloids are picking up the rumors this week. The British tabloid Closer has a source claiming: “Things have gone from bad to worse and they don’t know how to fix it. They’ve been through a lot and while Gwen’s putting on a brave face for the sake of the kids, she’s not sure she can save their marriage." Here's more:
Star Magazine picked up the story in this week's issue, claiming that Gwen and Gavin are in a "marriage crisis" and they're still deciding if they'll split. My take? I don't even know. Considering they still care enough to do happy-family paparazzi photo-ops, I'd say they're still committed to their marriage. But I'll buy that they're having problems – everybody has problems. It happens. They fight, they work it out. Hopefully, it's nothing. |
Is Kim Kardashian racist against Indians, or is she just a picky eater? Posted: 31 May 2012 04:35 AM PDT What's with all of the anti-Indian racism lately? When did Indians become one of the "go-to" victims of racial insensitivity and outright racism? Full disclosure: I'm half-Indian. Some people think I look Indian – but I'm also consistently asked if I'm Mexican, Greek, Italian and oddly enough, German (?). I've been the victim of other people's racism and at times, I'll admit, I can be hypersensitive about racial issues. I don't consider myself an expert on race or racism, so just take this post as what it is – one brown girl's opinion. On a recent episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kim said on camera that she thinks Indian food is "so disgusting". Chaos ensued.
[From Us Weekly] Sigh… okay…is this really a thing? Kim Kardashian did NOT say "Indian food is disgusting because it's made my Indians, who are disgusting." She really was just stating a personal food preference. And you know what? I grew up around Indian food and some of it really is stomach-churning. My dad used to spend hours making Ghee and the horrible smell of it still haunts me. Of course, my mouth waters when I smell Indian-style garlic chicken. So… my verdict: I really don't think Kim was being racist. She could have stated her preference in a nicer way, sure. But a gut-reaction is a gut-reaction. |
Is Zhang Ziyi secretly a hooker charging $1 million per night? Posted: 31 May 2012 04:20 AM PDT From what I know of Zhang Ziyi, I like her. She's one of the most famous and talented Chinese actresses in the world – she is a renowned international beauty, and she's one of the biggest gossip targets in China. Back in 2009, Zhang got a lot of bad press because she was A) engaged to an Israeli billionaire and living an international life of luxury and B) caught sunbathing topless, which some claimed was "shameful". Zhang and the Israeli (Vivi Nevo) broke up at some point, and I don't know who or what Zhang is doing at this point. But there's a really scandalous theory floating around! According to reports out of China, Zhang has just been implicated in a HUGE prostitution scandal. Some say Zhang was charging around $1 million per night. OMG.
The number floating around for all of Zhang's sexual performances over the years: 700 million yuan, which is… um… my currency calculator is broken, because there is no way Zhang made THAT MUCH. One of my favorite parts of this (completely alleged!) story? Allegedly, Zhang didn't even have to pay TAXES on her ho money!! Because she was boning all of the rich oligarchs who run China, and they gave her a "tax-free" pass or something. Anyway, Zhang is denying all of it, of course. Perhaps those Chinese higher-ups who paid for her services can help a sister out? Probably not – they're too busy covering their own asses right about now. Zhang's lawyers are demanding a retraction and apology from the Chinese paper that first asserted the prostitution story. Zhang's publicist also told media outlets, "Friends have advised us to release a short statement and not take this seriously. The more you argue, the more you will stir up. It would be better to step aside until people lose interest and the lies disappear. The innocent will always be innocent.” Girl… if any of the ho story is true, I hope she just takes the money and runs. |
Kathie Lee Gifford asks Martin Short how his deceased wife is doing, he rolls with it Posted: 31 May 2012 04:17 AM PDT
[From Radar Online] TMZ has the full clip with Kathie Lee’s apology. (I didn’t use that one as there’s a commercial ahead of it.) Kathie Lee and Hoda described how Martin broke the news to them, and he sounded just so gracious about it. Kathie Lee said “My apologies to him and his family for not realizing that.” Martin deserves a lot of credit for just answering the questions and then waiting patiently until the break to tell Kathie Lee she messed up big time. I doubt I would have been able to do that, and would probably have blurted it out at the first question about a deceased loved one. I think Kathie Lee has been around so long, and knows so many people, that thinks she knows enough about every celebrity to not have to read up on them. Hopefully she won’t make such a big mistake again. It might not be the first time she’s done this. Someone in the comments on Radar mentioned that she asked James Taylor on the Regis & Kathie Lee show in the 90s how his brother was doing, and his brother had been dead a year. I wasn’t able to verify that, but I believe it. Martin and his wife Nancy Dolman in 2009. Photo credit: WENN.com |
Mila Kunis shows off slight weight gain on NYC film set: she looks good, right? Posted: 31 May 2012 04:14 AM PDT I've been looking for an excuse to cover the photos coming out of the New York set of Blood Ties, but it only came together for me just now. The tagline for Blood Ties: "Two brothers, on either side of the law, face off over organized crime in Brooklyn during the 1970s." Clive Owen is presumably playing one of the (muttonchopped) brothers, and little Mila Kunis is playing Clive's character's WIFE. You heard me. Mila Kunis, 28, is playing the 1970s wife of Clive Owen, 47. I think I'm so weirded out by this because Mila actually seems much younger than 28, and I don't really see how a man's man like Clive could have any chemistry with this young woman. But… he had chemistry with Natalie Portman in Closer (God, that scene in the strip club – OMG). So maybe it will work out? But my real hook for this story is one I'm borrowing from The Superficial, who pointed out that in these photos from the Blood Ties set, it looks like Mila Kunis has put on a little weight. Mila is a small girl – she reportedly dropped her weight drastically for Black Swan, and then she's been gradually gaining weight back. Personally, I'm not sure I would have noticed her (slight!) weight gain if The Superficial hadn't pointed it out. Maybe she's wearing padding, though? Because it just seems to be in her midsection. Or maybe she just like beer and hawt dergs. Alternate theory: Mila is gaining weight because she’s gestating an Ashton Kutcher douche-baby. GROSS. Still… let's be fair. All of the people who would have said "HELL YES" to the "Mila Kunis: Would you hit it?" question will still want to hit it. Same for Muttonchop Clive.
