Vaughnis-done?

October 4, 2006 / Deb Medsker

Us Weekly has announced the break-up of Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. Of course, the tabloid also recently reported the engagement of said couple…and, for all we know, next week will feature wedding photos of Jen and Vince on their front cover.

Then again, the duo does have the DVD release of a little film called “THE BREAK-UP” coming out on October 17…so it’s possible that this tidbit of gossip is both true and a clever marketing ploy. Now that’s crafty.

Stay tuned for vehement denials from the stars’ respective publicists, followed by reluctant confirmations, followed by a rushed reconciliation, followed by general confusion.

Turns out breaking up is surprisingly EASY to do.

October 1, 2006 / Will Harris

Who doesn’t enjoy reading the dirt on a messy Hollywood break-up? I mean, hell, the entertainment media machine would come to a standstill if all romances were happily-ever-after storybook affairs. Leave it to Jim Parish, then, to put together a book that highlights the “best” of the bunch. Parish, whose last book tackled the life and times of some of Hollywood’s biggest flops (“Fiasco“), tackles the Tinseltown relationships that went belly-up, getting as current as Pitt-Aniston and Hawke-Thurman, but going as far as back as Hollywood’s glory days.

It’s an educational ride through cinematic history. You hear loads about Bogie and Bacall, but the tale of Humphrey Bogart’s third wife – Lauren Bacall was his fourth – is fascinating…if tragic. Mayo Methot was a substance abuser, but she also was the victim of paranoia and schizophrenia, resulting in her stabbing Bogie in the small of the back with a butcher knife and slamming his head against a concrete sidewalk. Yikes. There are also the tales of famed romances like Joe Dimaggio and Marilyn Monroe, Ava Gardner and Frank Sinatra, and Orson Welles and Lana Turner.

Well worth checking out.

And the role of Iron Man will be played by…

September 29, 2006 / Jason Zingale

Robert Downey Jr.?

That’s the word on the block, anyways, and while I don’t particularly think it’s a great choice, it’s definitely an interesting one.

Based upon Marvel’s iconic Super Hero, Iron Man tells the story of Tony Stark, a billionaire industrialist and genius inventor who is kidnapped and forced to build a devastating weapon. Instead, using his intelligence and ingenuity, Tony builds a high-tech suit of armor and escapes captivity. Upon his return to America, Tony must come to terms with his past. When he uncovers a nefarious plot with global implications, he dons his powerful armor and vows to protect the world as Iron Man.

Downey has proven himself versatile many a times, and it looks like Marvel is really looking to make a splash with their first independently produced feature film. Jon Favreau is set to direct, with a summer 2008 release date.

Lindsay Lohan has a great fall

September 22, 2006 / Deb Medsker

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall…

Lindsay Lohan has fractured her wrist in two places. The official report is that she slipped and fell on it at a Fashion Week after-party because the host failed to take adequate precautions “to prevent slips on the slick ground.”

But we all know that’s not the real story, right? What really happened that night was either:

A), She broke it punching a wall after first-and-only-true love Wilmer Valderrama left the party with rumored fling Scarlett Johansson;
B), She smashed it against the face of whatever paparazzi leaked those shots of her firecrotch onto the internet;
C), The wrist broke all on its own, finally giving out after years of abuse lifting heavy glasses of alcohol and other long, hard, weighty objects; or
D), [insert your own explanation here]

Place your votes, folks! We’ll get to the bottom of this if it kills us…

A day at the soccer field

September 20, 2006 / Deb Medsker

We just heart Go Fug Yourself so much, we had to share with you their take on this happy fall outing for America’s hottest, most totally heterosexual, not-faking-it, deeply in love soon-to-be-married couple:

TOM: Kate, what do you think of my hair?
KATIE: It’s amazing.
TOM: I set the Flowbie to stun. HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA. No, seriously, I actually just set it to “long.” You don’t think I look like a boy-bander? I think I look like a boy-bander. A little bit. A little boy-bandy.
KATIE: You look amazing.
TOM: What about my suit? Do you like my suit? Is my suit too movie-premiere-y for a soccer game?
KATIE: Your suit is amazing. Everyone wears Gucci to their child’s soccer game. Gucci is amazing.
TOM: Are you being sarcastic?
KATIE: I haven’t been sarcastic in 18 months. My head hurts too much.
TOM: Have some vitamins!
KATIE: Uh-huh.
TOM: WHAT’S THAT?
KATIE: Vitamins are amazing. Scientology rocks.
