We appreciate em', too, Bradley. Here's Brad Pitt and his gorgeous companion, the inflated with pregnancy Angelina Jolie. Mouthy-ass Jack Black just blabbed to the world that she's expecting twins. And it looks like she's already dealing with another pair of twins. Those gorgeous ones on her chest! Hot damn!
Angie and Jack Black's new flick, the animated Kung Fu Panda is being called "funny as well as frantic" by reviewers. Black voices Po, the heroic panda bear that learns karate and Jolie is Tigress, a kung-fu fighting tiger. It's a kid's movie. Unless you're Mariah Carey.
Here's some pics from a party for the movie at Cannes. Seriously, those boobs are turning me straight. I can ignore the pregnancy part.
Sean Penn is heading up the jury for the Cannes Film Festival this year and is as outspoken as ever. The eccentric and politically-involved actor denied that he is supporting Barack Obama in the upcoming presidential election. He was asked about it during a pre-festival press conference.
"I don't have a candidate I'm supporting and I'm certainly interested and excited by the hope that Barack Obama is inspiring. I hope that he will understand, if he is the nominee, the degree of disillusionment that will happen if he doesn't become a greater man than he will ever be," Penn said. "This is the most important election, certainly in my lifetime, and maybe ever."
Penn also stated that he felt that Obama had a "phenomenally inhuman and unconstitutional" voting record.
Penn's other concern at Cannes is that the French won't let him smoke. He said he'd been discouraged from smoking in public places due to France's recent ban. As he was saying this, bitch lit up a coffin nail and chain-smoked through the rest of the press conference. This is a guy who lives in a trailer, shoots guns and took a dinghy into New Orleans after Katrina. He's all about a Jack London/Ernest Hemingway/Dennis Hopper f*cked up on acid lifestyle.
Watch this video. Don't worry I'll wait. Wasn't the look on Jack Black's face when he realized Angelina Jolie hadn't confirmed she was having twins yet priceless? He was like "oh, this bitch will sue." Jack Black and Angelina Jolie were interviewed at Cannes by NBC about their new flick Kung Fu Panda. Mouthy Jack spilled the beans about the duo that Angie is bearing.
She didn't seem to mind, though. Angie seems to actually really dig Jack and he was cracking her up. This vid kinda made me love Angie a bit. She just seemed like a cool, easy-going chick.
Angie says that her kids (except for Shiloh because she's more discerning) are big Jack Black fans. Another co-star of Angie's, Dustin Hoffman, reportedly told NBC that she's due August 19th. Why are these men up in her area? Are they celebrity obstetricians? I suspect that Angie might have provided everyone with some info herself, but that isn't possible. She's anything but conniving!
Emile Hirsch, perhaps distressed by his new flick Speed Racer crashing and burning at the box office, has fired his agent, United Talent Agency's Shari Rosenzweig.
The hugely hyped Speed Racer did only 18.6 million in its opening weekend, despite its ads trying to hypnotize us with all the bright colors and fast cars. Emile's most recent flick before Speed Racer was playing the doomed traveler Christopher McCandless in Sean Penn's Into The Wild. The film earned rave reviews and Oscar nominations. Maybe he didn't like going from quality filmmaking to cartoon bullshit that geeks like me drool over.. Despite the presence of John Goodman. Because King Ralph makes everything better.
Woody Allen directed an erotic film? Does it involve molested stepdaughters? Look, I know they weren't blood but direct your boner away from the immediate family, perv. It's just a little creepy.
Can you imagine Woody leering at them making out and slowly massaging his old man nipples through his sweater? And calling for multiple takes? Scarjo plays an backpacker who gets involved with a painter and his jealous ex-girlfriend. Doesn't this sound like Penthouse Forum? Not that I'd know. Shut up!
"It is extremely erotic. People will be blown away and even shocked," is what a source says about the film. Woody wankfest.
Here's some snaps of the fiery-hot Julianne Moore at the premiere of Blindness at the Cannes Film Festival. The movie is about what happens one day when everyone in a town wakes up blind. Except for Julianne. That sounds all sorts of depressing. Though who wouldn't want the beautiful Julianne Moore as their seeing-eye movie star?
One reviewer referred to the film as "a wrist-slitting nightmare about tedious next-door neighbours who are forced to shelve their ethnic, social, and sexual differences when the entire world suddenly comes to a grinding halt." Remind me to see this one when I'm hungover and depressed. It sounds like they'll be sponging my blood off the walls.
More photos from the Cannes Film Festival photocall for Blindness featuring Gael Garcia Bernal, Julianne Moore, Danny Glover and Alice Braga are after the jump.
I know I'm basically falling right into the trap of buying the image he's selling, but after reading his GQ interview, I'm grudgingly finding myself intrigued by Shia LaBeouf. Granted, there are a few "quirky" little passions of his that are described in the interview--his newfound obsession for guns, his toilet seat collection (it's an art project) and the fact that he likes to breakdance (sigh, seriously?)-- that sound annoyingly self-aware, but the description of his reaction to hearing that his smoking incident had been made public rather endeared him to me.
Shia told the GQ interviewer, "The guy gives me a ticket. Then the court date came up two days after I had gotten back from shooting, and I just forgot about it. The news went everywhere, like I was on a crime spree. And it killed me. It broke my heart, because I really try not to be that guy." And that kind of made me like him.
Also, he admitted to crapping his pants on a regular basis until he was about twelve. That takes balls. Not the crapping bit, but the admitting part and I can't help but admire him for it.
With the premiere of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull fast approaching, Shia LaBeouf is on a promotional rampage, hosting Saturday Night Live last week and gracing the cover of the most recent issue of GQ. At the SNL after party, Shia caught the eye of All My Children actress Leven Rambin, who reportedly flirted with LaBeouf for a good part of the evening.
But Shia claims that he's not in a place in his life where he can really be in a relationship, mostly because of random rumors about his romantic interludes like this one. According to the 21-year-old actor, "I've been in love with every woman I've ever worked with," including Michelle Monaghan, Megan Fox and Sarah Roemer. But these infatuations are not long-lasting, and LaBeouf explained that "there's the three-month attention span that actors have. I don't know if it's mutual, but I really don't care. They have to kiss me when 'action' gets called, anyway, so I'll get what I want."
I know he's just being jokey, but that last bit made him sound kind of creepy.
Why is he insistent on transforming his wife into some weird 50s housewife robot? It's creepy. Here's Tom Cruise, wife Katie Holmes and their daughter Suri watching David Beckham play soccer. Tom's movie Valkyrie'srelease date has been pushed back again.
The movie, a true story in which Tom plays a Nazi planning to kill Adolph Hitler, had already been pushed to autumn despite the initial release being set for this summer. Now it's set for sometime in 2009. Straight to DVD! Clearance bin!
The movie has had a lot of issues, including damaged film, lukewarm test screenings, and concern over Tom's German accent. Tom Cruise ist verrückt und schwul. Mine's ok, though.
Here's Scott Speedman out biking. Everything seems fairly normal until he gets to the bench and starts rocking out with his earphones. Then I expect him to start talking about the Burger Barn and inviting me to his party.
Scott's starring in this new flick called The Strangers with Liv Tyler. It looks scary as hell. Anytime someone in a movie puts on a grotesque mask, I'm checking under the bed that night. This one is a remake of a foreign movie that was supposely based on a true story about random strangers who attacked a young couple one night. Probably an urban legend. Watch the trailer here. Watch until the end for the reason why they attacked the couple. I'm sleeping with the lights on.
