Rooney Mara made one lucky fan’s night as she left the Walter Reade Theater post special Q&A screening of “Side Effects,” last night.  As she was being trailed by a swarm of autograph hounds, all calling for her attention, Mara spotted one lone Asian fan out of the corner of her eye as she attempted […]

Jude Law has been around the celebrity block or two.  On both sides of the pond.  This very fact put in motion his great escape from the Side Effects Q&A screening at Lincoln Center a few days ago after the dashing Brit spotted a horde of autograph seekers awaiting his departure outside the service gate […]

We ain’t seen something this here funny in a damn long time.  We kid you not, we laughed so hard we nearly pee’ed in our pants.  An unruly ghetto wanna-be thug mom gets herself tasered, in front of her kids, after she attacks mall security officer Darren Long.  See video after the jump: Ordinarily we […]

Ain’t this some thit?  Isaac Sopoaga, Ricky Jean Francois, Donte Whitner and Ahmad Brooks, of the San Francisco 49ers NFL team, have collectively gone and doubled back on a Trevor Project “It Gets Better” pro-gay commercial they filmed citing they weren’t aware it was anything more than a anti-bullying spot, as opposed to a pro-gay […]

Aren’t we glad Aussie hotness Hugh Jackman is continuing his run as the adamantium clawed Wolverine!  He rocks that role fiercely.  Here is a look of the set while filming in Japan. The film, presently listed as being in post-production – with a July release, will co-star Will Yun Lee, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Hiroyuki Sanada, Hal Yamanouchi, […]

The nation is all up on the Beyonce Super-Bowl half-time show.  We marvel at the public’s fascination with it.  It was indeed elaborate – for Bey.  But aside from the grandiose staging of a Beyonce video montage, we didn’t really see a cause for the OMG response.  Yes, she sang live but she sounded winded from the […]

Madea mastermind Tyler Perry tell us “it may take a while.”  Such a header begs you to follow it where-ever it may lead.  And what we, and many others, found were words telling of a time, decades ago, when Perry himself was at the receiving end of some much needed generosity that would one day […]

Stop the presses.  Kate Upton will grace the cover of Sports Illustrated magazine’s 2013 Swimsuit issue – again.  Allegedly.  That’s if this here leaked version turns out to be real.  Ain’t that something?  Well, actually, probably not.  Call us slow, or whatever the hell you like, but we don’t really see the meltdown folks experience […]

Stumbling upon Cheyenne Jackson’s “Don’t Wanna Know” music video came as a pleasant surprise.  Awwww hell, it was more than that, but it’s much too early to get that blood surge redirecting.   Sure he is a talented Broadway staple in the NYC theater community and red carpet events on both coasts.  Papi gets around.  And we […]

For those of you who don’t know, John Hawkes is an OSCAR nominated actor.  He has co-starred in countless films and is presently co-starring in Untitled Elmore Leonard Project alongside Jennifer Aniston. We think of her as being box office poison but that is an entirely other topic. Our own thoughts of Aniston’s on-screen success – […]
