Glee’s Chris Colfer goes behind the scenes 0

Glee’s Chris Colfer, better known for his role as Kurt Hummel–the much bullied gay glee club member in the hit show, is not just a pretty face with a really nice voice anymore as he’s also a good businessman and writer.

Chris just sold his first pilot episode of The Little Leftover Witch to Disney. The story deals with a witch that was adopted by a family after she crash landed on them with her broom.

The Glee star will also be writing and starring in Struck By Lightning, an independent movie that deals with coming of age issues.

Good luck Chris!

Cotillard and Gordon-Levitt’s roles in Batman film revealed 0

Superhero movies are in the rage again as, besides the Superman Reboot, most people are also waiting for Chris Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises.

Although the main villains are supposedly all named, two actor’s (Marion Cotillard and Joseph Gordon-Levitt) roles have been revealed:

Cotillard will appear as Miranda Tate, a Wayne Enterprises board member eager to help a still-grieving Bruce Wayne resume his father’s philanthropic endeavors for Gotham. Gordon-Levitt will play John Blake, a Gotham City beat cop assigned to special duty under the command of Commissioner Gordon.

Is it just me or are these roles fit for bit players and not for some mid-hitters like the 2 actors mentioned? Is there more than meets the eye when it comes to their roles?

Nick Cage Bailed by Dog the Bounty Hunter 0

Nick Cage is a lucky guy. Despite him getting arrested for being a nuisance, someone actually bailed him out. The curious thing is, it’s Dog the Bounty Hunter.

Duane Chapman

Duane Chapman, AKA Dog the Bounty Hunter, bailed Cage for $11,000.

“This is what I do for a living. There are two sides of my job: I release my clients after they have been arrested; and pick them up if they don’t show up in court,” he explained. “I do not believe the latter will be the case for Mr. Cage.”

Let’s hope that Nick Cage appears in court at the appointed day, or Dog will be after his tail.

Nick Cage

The charge is domestic abuse and disturbing the peace. According to New Orleans Police it all started when Cage had a fight with his wife, Alice Kim.

“Cage and his wife were standing in front of a residence that he insisted was the property the couple was renting. She disagreed, and Cage grabbed her by the upper arm and pulled her to what he believed was the correct address. There were no visible signs of injury on his wife’s arm,” the NOPD said in a statement.

“The actor then began striking vehicles and later attempted to get into a taxi. At that point, an officer who had been flagged down by onlookers drove up on the couple, immediately observed that Cage was heavily intoxicated and ordered him out of the cab, which prompted Cage to start yelling. The officers subsequently took Cage to Central Lock-up.”

It was found out that he was drunk. Cage is to appear to a court on May 31.

Is Scarlett Johansson just overweight? 0

Daily Mail Online was able to get pictures of Scarlett and current beau Sean Penn jogging in Malibu. However, she seemed to have lost her perfect curves a bit to the point that her tummy seems to be protruding.

Could it be that she’s pregnant? Some are speculating she is, but it might just be her tight fitting clothes that’s causing the bump to appear.

Both Sean Penn and Scarlett Johansson were romantically linked last January after she divorced Ryan Reynolds. However, Sean’s ex-girlfriend, Jessica White, confirmed it for them.

“‘I think Sean needs a good woman in his life,’ Jessica told entertainment website Popeater.com. ‘They’re great together.’

Both have denied the rumors.

Michael Shannon to play Zod in Superman Reboot 0

The Superman reboot movie looks like it just got its main villain: General Zod. And the actor playing him will be Michael Shannon.

Let’s get to know a bit about the man and his role. Mr. Shannon worked on movies like Bad Boys II, Pearl Harbor, Vanilla Sky, and Tigerland. On the other hand, General Zod is a supervillain that maybe considered almost Superman’s equal, as the quotes from Director Zack Snyder shows:

“Zod is not only one of Superman’s most formidable enemies, but one of the most significant because he has insights into Superman others don’t.”

Michael will be joining Amy Adams, who will play Lois Lane, and other great actors in the Superman Reboot.

Spencer Pratt Wants To Be Seacrest Intern 0

Spencer Pratt wants to be a more likable person by…becoming Ryan Seacrest’s intern?

Spencer’s path to being likeable is by being with someone who is one.

“How do you go from being hated to even a little bit likable? It’s about who you’re around,” Pratt said. “I’ve learned you need to be around likable people to even start to be likable. Who’s the most likable person in America, if not the world? That would be Ryan Seacrest.”

Does this mean that he will be stalking Seacrest in his shows like American Idol as well? Will Ryan rub on Spencer or will it be the other way around? Ryan Seacrest will have to decide if he will give Spencer Pratt a chance or not.

Angelina and Brad Adopting Rumors 0

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt maybe planning to adopt another child. The proof lies in Angelina’s new tattoo.

While Angelina was in Tunisia last Tuesday, people noticed that she had a seventh tattoo on her left arm. The other six tattoos were locations of where her six children were born. The most recent tattoo seems to point to Algeria or Oklahoma.

When last interviewed about adopting another child, Angelina was a bit hesitant on getting a new one:

“I’m always open to children around the world,” Jolie said in February 2010 during a trip to earthquake-ravage Haiti. “We’re that kind of family. Brad and I talk about that. But that’s not what we’re focusing on at this time, by any means.”

Whether she is or not, that new tattoo is spinning the rumor mill on overdrive.

Nick Cannon is “Butt Naked” 1

We agree with Nick Cannon, it is awkward seeing your parents naked.

Nick Cannon and wife, diva, songstress, Mariah Carey had some artistic and nude pictures taken. The pictures will be shown in their house.

Nick expressed his regret on his own radio show.

“When they get older and their friends come over,” Cannon says of his children, “they will see the pictures and say, ‘Your daddy’s butt naked.’ “

Mariah on the other hand has no qualms of getting naked, even to the point of tweeting a picture of her tummy surrounded with paint. No news though if they’ll reveal it to the world yet.
