Jon Gosselin Launches A Preemptive Strike

jon-gosselin-lies-tshirt-2

Kate Gosselin is scheduled to appear on Larry King Live tonight, supposedly to “open up about her private pain” about the end of her marriage to soon to be ex husband Jon Gosselin.  (Is this going to be anything different than she already told The Today Show?)

She hasn’t even given the interview yet,  but Jon’s evidently already decided what he thinks of it.  Just in case we weren’t clear.

Melanie Griffith Returns To Rehab – Gets More Help (photos)

Melanie Griffith out with Stella in Hollywood

It’s been 9 years since her last stay in a treatment facility and  Melanie Griffith has returned to rehab.  Melanie is getting treatment in Utah’s Cirque Lodge.

Lindsay Lohan, Mary-Kate Olsen and Eva Mendes have also received therapy there.  This place seems to be the popular sopt for rehab with the stars, it must work pretty well…..I just hope it helps Melanie get back on solid ground.

Best of luck to you, Melanie!  Get well soon!  We are pulling for you!

Gwyneth Paltrow & Chris Martin Build A London Mansion

wenn5206085_gwynethpaltrowchris-martin-the-sound-of-relief-music-festival

One house is enough for most people, but Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin are not most people.   They have purchased the house next door to their London home so they can build a humongous 33 room mansion.

A neighbor said:

“It will be a massive house. What they have already is a substantial family home, but to double and add a bit on will make it a real mansion.  Mind you, I wouldn’t want to have to pay the council tax on the new house – but I don’t suppose that will concern this particular couple.”

Probably not.  The two of them together are worth an estimated $74 million. Plenty to pay a team of staff to take care of their home, which will include:

a gym, changing room, and three bedrooms. There will be eight rooms on the lower ground floor, six on the next. The main floor will be divided into five areas and eight rooms are planned for the floor above that.

I’m sure we’ll get to read all about it (whether we like it or not) on Gwynnie’s website, GOOP.

Thomas Jane Dishes About Being ‘Hung’

thomas-jane-hung-premiere

Thomas Jane is the star of the new HBO series Hung, in which he plays a basketball coach who is rather, shall we say, endowed.  Whether he’s comparable to an exhaust pipe like David Beckham, I’m not sure, but Thomas talked to Uinterview about what it’s like to be Hung.

On his wife Patricia Arquette’s reaction to this role:

“[ Patricia ] reads everything I do. And I showed her this thing I’d been doing, The Mist, which is about creatures from another dimension. And then I showed her this script called Hung, about a guy with a giant d*ck. And she said, “Great, more science fiction!”

On how Hung has changed fans’ reactions to him:

I know now what it’s like to be a woman because I now have to say during a conversation, ‘Hey my eyes are up here!’ They don’t even know that they are doing this. They look at me like they would someone on TV – ‘No actually I can see you too, this reality thing goes both ways.’

On how the show has changed his relationship with his own little – er, BIG – friend:

Yeah, they are a little insecure about their penises. We are born to be insecure about [our] penises. I was actually quite happy with mine until I did Hung. Now I don’t know what to think of it, maybe I’m not big enough. I was basically really happy with mine, now I’ve got all these issues and I have to go see a shrink. [laughs] It’s a unique scenario playing a man with a large penis. I didn’t know my penis was going to be famous along with me! If I had known he was going to be famous, I would have treated him better in my younger years – I wouldn’t have rubbed him on the carpet so much and gotten that horrible rug burn. I would have treated him a lot better.

Ouch!  I hope he’s kidding about the carpet thing.  The whole interview is worth a read, check it out here.

Christopher Nolan’s ‘Inception’ Revealed in New Teaser Trailer

inception

Here’s the new Teaser Trailer for Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan‘s new film Inception starring Leonardo DiCaprio.

Looks awesome to me, so often in dreams gravity is one of the first things to truly go crazy, at least for me. The concept of this film has me hooked, as most of Nolan‘s work does. I think this just might be the film I’m looking forward to most next summer.

Robin Williams to Play Susan Boyle in Biopic

robin-williams-1susan-boyle-pic

Apparently Robin Williams is supposed to play Susan Boyle in a new film about her life.

According to a new report in the Guardian, Williams has been asked to play singing sensation Susan Boyle in a movie about her life. Film executives are planning a film about her rise to stardom after appearing on Britain’s Got Talent.

It helps that Robin is already a big Susan Boyle fan, and has reportedly been practicing his impressions of her and singing “I Dreamed a Dream” to prepare for the role.

He says, “I’ve been asked if I want to play Susan in the movie. I think she’s incredible. That clip of her singing on Britain’s Got Talent was extraordinary. So inspiring. It was quite a shock when she began to sing. I saw some other clip of her singing Cry Me A River a few years ago. It was incredible. She’s got a really great voice.”

It’s not a huge stretch for Williams to play a woman, and he does look the most like her of any of the big names out there. Still very strange news, I wonder if it will come to fruition.

First ‘Vampire’s Assistant’ Poster Looks Childish

vampires_assistant_ver2

Here’s the first poster for the upcoming movie Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant.

This poster really doesn’t make me think the movie is going to be good, or cool, or funny. Hopefully it’s better than it looks, I guess the childishness of the film makes sense; the movie is based on a children’s book.

‘When in Rome’ Poster with Kristen Bell

when_in_rome

Here’s the new poster for the upcoming film When in Rome starring Kristen Bell and Josh Duhamel.

Beth Harper (Bell) is a young, successful real estate agent … but she’s completely unlucky in love. However, when the New Yorker travels to Rome to see her newlywed sister, she impulsively steals some coins from a reputed fountain of love, and is then aggressively pursued by a band of wannabe lovers.

Sounds like a total chick flick to me, but who knows, some of those are good. I really like Kristen Bell.
