Sorry Selena Gomez, But I Don’t Buy You As A Carjacker In The Getaway Trailer

Sorry Selena Gomez, But I Don't Buy You As A Carjacker In The Getaway Trailer

The trailer for the new movie Getaway is out, and there’s something very odd about it. That something is the presence of Selena Gomez. It’s not her presence in general. I know she’s an actress and she’s likely to be in movies. It’s the role she’s playing. Let’s just say it fits her about as well as her on-again-off-again boyfriend Justin Bieber’s pants fit him.

That Time Katie Holmes Had A Completely Normal NYC Parent Run-In With Ethan Hawke

That Time Katie Holmes Had A Completely Normal NYC Parent Run-In With Ethan Hawke

I live in New York City and the saying is true. You never know when you’re going to run into anybody. People from high schools, old employers, ex-partners, and even the kids I used to babysit who are huge now and recognize me while I’m buying soymilk. Even though it’s a big metropolis, running into each other on this tiny island happens more often than I would personally sometimes like it too. So when Katie Holmes was out roaming the city without Suri Cruise, I wonder what crossed her mind when she looked up and saw Ethan Hawke with his kid. Do you think they talked strollers? Allergies? Private schools in Manhattan? More »

The Most Romantic Movies Of Our Time

The Most Romantic Movies Of Our Time

What is it about romantic movies that have us dragging our friends and loved ones to the theaters, renting them off Netflix, and wearing out the DVDs with repeat viewings? These tales of star-crossed lovers — or best friends whose affection grows into something deeper — give us hope that we can have it, too. Not the kidnappings, letters from the grave, or time travel (though those would be fun), but the enduring, can’t-be-without-you love that powers each of the outlandish plots that we adore.

Just in time for Valentine’s Day, here’s a list of our picks for the Most Romantic Movies Of Our Time. For the most part, I tried to pick more recognizable romantic comedies and dramas from the ’90s and ’00s, but there are a few ’80s stragglers. (I promise they’re worth it.) More »

Celebrity Reading List: 15 Celebs Who Have Written Novels

Celebrity Reading List: 15 Celebs Who Have Written Novels

Things I found out recently include the fact that the Kardashian sisters are making their fiction debut in November with a novel entitled Dollhouse. Says Kim, “”The novel is based on our lives but we’ve added a lot of crazy fictional twists and turns. You’ll have to decide for yourself which story lines are true to life, and which ones we dreamed up.” But Kim, Khloé, and Kourtney are far from the only celebs who have tried their hand at novel-writing. I can’t speak as to how much these shining literary achievements owe to a little thing we call ghostwriting, but some of them aren’t so bad. Others… well, take a look for yourselves! More »

13 Actors Who Could Have Played Iconic Roles

13 Actors Who Could Have Played Iconic Roles

Severus Snape? Alan Rickman. Marty McFly? Michael J. Fox. Vivian Ward? Julia Roberts. We all know and love these characters, and their actors’ portrayals of them were so perfect, it can be hard to imagine anyone else playing them. But guess what? If things had gone a little differently, Alan Rickman might not have landed Snape, Michael J. Fox may not have donned Marty’s orange vest, and Julia Roberts may not have become one of the world’s most well-known prostitutes. That’s right: Each of these characters were originally pitched to different actors, and in some cases, were even recast midway through shooting. What other iconic characters might have ended up being played by totally different actors? Read on to find out! More »

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, Olivia Wilde and Tao Ruspoli, Leah Messer and Corey Simms… is it just me, or have there been more than the usual celebrity splits lately?
