Action Packed ‘Conan the Barbarian’ Poster Series

Here’s the brand new poster series for the upcoming remake Conan the Barbarian.

They certainly didn’t skimp on the details for these posters, hopefully the movie is equally detailed and well crafted. I hope it has a story worth mentioning, not just effects and action worth mentioning. Conan the Barbarian will be in theaters on August 19th.

‘X-Men: First Class’ Tops Box Office

This past weekend’s (June 3-5, 2011) number one movie was X-Men: First Class which made $55.1 million, which isn’t bad, but falls short of all the other X-Men movies ever released. It’s arguably the best X-Men film yet, so hopefully it’ll make up for the relatively low opening it in coming weeks. Nothing else opened in the top ten this week, every other movie just moved down a rank.

Josh Duhamel Is Going Back On ‘All My Children’ For A Cameo

Josh Duhamel is going to go back to where it all started for him: All My Children.

The daytime soap opera, which was recently canceled by ABC, will get a farewell visit from the actor as he makes a cameo this summer.

His character, con-artist Leo du Pres’ body was never found (ya gotta love soap operas!) and Duhamel, 38, should make an appearance this August in the role that earned him four Daytime Emmy nominations and one Award as a supporting actor in 2002.

Kate Middleton’s Wedding Dress, Tiara To Be Displayed At Buckingham Palace

Kate Middleton‘s wedding dress fascinated the world and starting in July, those who want to get a glimpse of it up close will be able to.

The Duchess of Cambridge’s gown designed by Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen, will be displayed at Buckingham Palace for 10 weeks during the annual Summer Opening, beginning July 23rd.

“The Duchess chose British brand Alexander McQueen for the beauty of its craftsmanship and its respect for traditional workmanship and the technical construction of clothing,” the Royal Collection Press Office said in a press release. “Her Royal Highness worked closely with Sarah Burton in formulating the design of her dress.”

The Duchess is also allowing her veil, shoes and the diamond earrings given to her as a wedding gift from her parents, Michael and Carole Middleton.

Middleton’s tiara, loaned to her by Queen Elizabeth II for her April 29th nuptials to her grandson, Prince William, will also be available for public viewing.

The State Dining Room of the Palace will also have a set up for the cake, created by Fiona Cairns.

One thing not on display: Pippa Middleton‘s bridesmaid dress. Kate’s younger sister is the private owner and not an official member of the Royal Family so her wedding day attire is not included in the display.

The Royal open house ends October 3rd.

Lady Gaga Picks Up Fashion Award But Loses Her Top

Lady Gaga took her crazy high heels and turquoise wig to the 2011 CFDA Fashion Awards at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall in New York City last night and ended up giving the crowd a peep show.

The 25 year-old artist was on hand to collect her Fashion Icon prize but on arrival as she posed for photographers, her studded corset Thierry Mugler dress slipped and once again her breasts took center stage for a few moments. Could someone buy her some t*t tape, please? Enough already!

The “Judas” singer did give a very emotional speech, thanking her fashion pals for making her feel welcome.

“All of you made me feel like a star before I was. I can’t believe I’m allowed in here. My sister is here with me tonight. I told her I was very nervous”, the soft-spoken Gaga said.

Photos of Lady Gaga are under. (Read the article)

Cheryl Burke & Teri Hatcher Kick Up Their Heels In Vegas (Photos)

Dancing With The StarsCheryl Burke may have found her dance partner for next season!  She taught Teri Hatcher a couple of ballroom moves in Las Vegas this weekend.  They were at the Palazzo Resort and Casino for the Marc Bouwer fashion show, part of jeweler Simon G.’s annual “Summer Soiree” party.  Also on view:  Marc Bouwer’s new line of jewelry for Simon G.

Despite the celebrities, luxury surroundings and bling, the evening had a higher purpose:  charity partner Generosity Water was there to raise awareness of its efforts to bring clean drinking water to impoverished countries around the word.  (Y’all know I’m a sucker for a good cause.)

More fun pictures of Teri and Cheryl follow. (Read the article)
