Okay. I’M SORRY Nicolas Cage was Trespass-ed against years ago and had to live through a real-life home invasion by a naked man who loved Fudgesicles. That sounds terrible and the part about the leather jacket is not helping, either. But since this Reuters story produced my favorite sentence on the Internet today… READ FULL STORY »

'Ellen': Chaz Bono and Jon Cryer talk 'Dancing with the Stars' and 'Two and a Half Men'
It was a packed day on Ellen as Chaz Bono and Jon Cryer stopped by to promote their upcoming seasons of Dancing with the Stars and Two and a Half Men, respectively. DeGeneres opened with an impassioned defense of Bono before giving way to the lighter stuff. There was talk of prosthetic penises (from Cryer!); a surprise super-celebrity call-in; Bono revealing what style he drew for his first Dancing routine; and even some side scoop on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Read all about it below! READ FULL STORY »

Christina Applegate returns to TV (hooray!) in 'Up All Night': Welcome back!

While Buffy fans are still basking in the glory of Sarah Michelle Gellar being back on the small screen in her new crime drama Ringer, fans of Married… with Children ( …and Samantha Who? …and Jesse …and Friends, for that matter) will have reason to celebrate tonight as fellow TV icon Christina Applegate makes her triumphant return to TV as well.
In her new sitcom Up All Night, which premieres at 10 p.m. EST tonight on NBC, Applegate (pictured here with co-star Will Arnett of Arrested Development royalty) plays a new mom dealing with the perils of parenthood (turns out, babies don’t care if you have a hangover, they will still cry… loudly), all while juggling her marriage with her stay-at-home hubby (Arnett) and her career. (She works for a neurotic talk show host, played by Saturday Night Live vet Maya Rudolph. Okay, so this show pretty much brought back everyone we love.) READ FULL STORY »

'Big Brother' finale airs tonight: Remembering the best, worst, and craziest moves from the Season of Twists

Tonight marks one of the saddest moments of the year: It’s the night that Big Brother airs its season finale. I understand that the very virtue of being sad about this makes me a sad person, but I can’t help it. My name is Kate Ward, and I’m a Big Brother addict. (My only cure is the sight of a stranger wearing some form of embarrassing spandex costume.) And I can’t avoid being down, even though BB13 was a pretty horrible season full of uninspiring twists and ho-hum characters. So, to cheer myself up, I prepared for tonight’s finale by entering into a spirited chat with my fellow Big Brother recapper, Darren Franich. Read on for our picks for the best and worst move of BB13, who should win the whole shebang, and which Monopoly pieces each player represents. Then join the discussion in the comments below!
KATE WARD: The finale of Big Brother 13 is upon us, Darren. How do we feel about this season, with its returning vets, inane gameplay, and incredibly uninteresting new players? Oh wait, do I sound biased?
DARREN FRANICH: Twist! We’re both biased. Double-twist: I actually think the new cast had potential, but this season was instantly hampered by the decision to throw a million new wrinkles into the gameplay. READ FULL STORY »

Are you ready for Justin Timberlake as a leading man?
In the cover story of this month’s Esquire, Justin Timberlake talks about the day he turned invisible. Or rather, the day he wore an Ernie-from-Sesame Street costume and toodled around Comic-Con like just another dude in a costume. (Writer Chris Jones played Bert. Big summer for the multi-colored gender-less roommates!) The joke, of course, is that Timberlake is such a recognizable and oddly approachable superstar that he has to put on a muppet costume to be incognito. (“I can sometimes walk around New York if I dress the right way,” he tells Esquire, “but that’s it.”) It’s been a big year for Timberlake’s acting career — he starred in summer comedies Friends with Benefits and Bad Teacher, and don’t forget all that Oscar talk off of Social Network — but next month’s In Time will be his first outing as a blockbuster-action protagonist. Do you think Timberlake can pull it off? Or should he start at least vaguely considering the thought of producing a new album? READ FULL STORY »

Paul Rudd talks about going nude for his movies like 'Our Idiot Brother'
It’s a real bummer that Our Idiot Brother opened in theaters on a weekend in which so many people — including most residents of New York City — couldn’t get to the movies on account of Hurricane Irene. The little-seen movie turned out to be a sweet family comedy that was funny, sincere, surprisingly moving, and one that, yet again, showcased Paul Rudd‘s talents. And this time around, some of his, well other assets, too.
For those who did get a chance to check out the movie, you’ll recall that there’s a moment in which Rudd’s dopey, but well-meaning, “idiot brother” Ned brings in some extra income by posing nude for a painting. The always-delightful Rudd sat down with Chelsea Handler for Tuesday night’s Chelsea Lately to talk about that particular scene and what it was like filming it within very close proximity to the boom mic operator.

A request of the 'Rachel Zoe Project': A little less Rodger, please
Image Credit: Barbara Nitke/Bravo
I didn’t expect to become a fan of The Rachel Zoe Project. But I was sick one weekend and medicated with a season 3 marathon. Zoe is on-the-surface ridiculous, and the episode of her fawning over Kate Hudson was kind of embarrassing, but she’s a hard worker and good at her job and at once shrewd and weirdly adorable. And she shared a delightfully entertaining rapport with her prone-to-blushing assistant Brad. He was wonderful and witty and excitable and often used old episodes of 90210 as touchstones. (When client Johnny Weir showed up to Elton John’s dinner party in the same suit as another guest Brad declared this a disaster on par with Kelly and Brenda’s matching prom dresses.) Alas, he and Zoe have since parted ways. We’re being led to believe by Team Zoe that he’s done her wrong, but I still don’t understand his crime. Signing with a management company seems a perfectly reasonable decision for someone so obviously telegenic to make.

Hugh Jackman takes his one-man show to Broadway: What should he sing?
Image Credit: Joan Marcus
It’s been a long seven years since Hugh Jackman shook his groove thing so expertly on the Great White Way in The Boy From Oz. Sure, since then we’ve had Cheyenne Jackson and Matthew Morrison grace the Broadway stage, but can anyone kick it as well as Hugh? More specifically, can any Hollywood A-lister sing and dance like he does? (And I’m counting you, John Travolta and Will Smith.) So thank God for Hugh Jackman: Back on Broadway, his newly-announced limited-run NYC one-man show, which starts previews on Oct. 25 (with an official opening planed for Nov. 10). READ FULL STORY »

'Jacqueline Kennedy: In Her Own Words': Did Diane Sawyer's special change your opinions about Jackie O?
Image Credit: Stan Wayman//Time Life Pictures/Getty Images
On the eve of the release of historian Michael Beschloss’ new book, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis: Historic Conversations on Life with John F. Kennedy, Diane Sawyer hosted a two-hour long special chronicling the previously unheard eight-and-a-half hours worth of audio of the former First Lady.
The ABC special — watch it here — featured the revealing interviews that historian Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. conducted with Mrs. Kennedy just four months after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, as well Sawyer’s interview with Caroline Kennedy, who revealed why she opted to release the tapes to the public now.
For anyone that was already deeply intrigued by the Kennedy clan, and the notion of Camelot, the sounds of a soft-spoken Jacqueline Kennedy talking, often in great detail, about life in and out of the White House was, no doubt, captivating. For those less familiar, it served as a unique history lesson. READ FULL STORY »

'Space Cases': If you remember this show, I'm impressed.
I wondered if I was perhaps writing about too obscure of a show when I covered The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo for EW’s ongoing nostalgia series on Saturday. Would anyone actually remember it? Thankfully, a few people did.
But things are about to get a whole lot more obscure. Today, I’m talking about Space Cases.
What, you don’t remember Space Cases? You know, that sci-fi show about a group of teenage space dwellers traveling through the universe that ran on Nickelodeon for two seasons. You’ve gotta remember it! No? It was that show which featured a girl with rainbow hair, a guy with giant whirlpool ears, and a pessimistic alien with a glittery wishbone glued on his forehead. Still nothing? READ FULL STORY »
