Taylor Swift dishes about her love life with Katie Couric

Breakup queen Taylor Swift discussed her own love story today on Katie. The interview, which was taped this Monday before her alleged breakup with Conor Kennedy, acted as a pseudo therapy session, with Katie Couric serving as psychiatrist (Couric even joked about being Lorraine Bracco from The Sopranos).

Wearing her best “awww, shucks, you’re here for me?” face and patterned, hemline dress, the songstress explained that she’s oblivious when it comes to love. “I don’t know how to have a normal relationship because I try to act normal and love from a normal place and live a normal life, but there is sort of an abnormal magnifying glass, like telescope lens, on everything that happens between me and anybody else. So I don’t know how to do that correctly or anything. I don’t really know that much about love, it turns out.” I think her millions of record-buyers would disagree. READ FULL STORY »

'Wizard of Oz' movie description goes viral

There’s no place like the Internet.

An old one-line movie blurb has gone viral this week thanks to mentions all over the world wide web. In 1998, for a Wizard of Oz listing on TCM, writer Rick Polito wrote, “Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers to kill again.”

This morning, Polito told JimRomensko.com, “That line is going to follow me to the grave. It was just on Leno, it was a clue in a crossword puzzle, it showed up in Playboy, and people use it as their email sigs.”

It’s easy to see why the terrifying silly line caught on. It got us at PopWatch thinking about how we could cryptically describe some other popular movies in one sentence: READ FULL STORY »

Conan O'Brien shows off perfect 10 look with dreads -- VIDEO

Conan O’Brien has always been a perfect 10 in my book, but the late-night host looked especially alluring last night.

Coco showed off a 1970s Bo Derek-esque look, complete with real dreadlocks and a spray tan. I don’t care what his sidekick Andy Richter said, the orange glow really brought out his baby blues and ginger roots. “I wish we had time to get a slow-mo shot of you coming out of the ocean,” Richter joked.

O’Brien said he thought his hairdresser was going to supply a wig for him to wear, only to find out he had to get actual cornrows. “The cornrows up here took an hour. The ones down below took two,” he said.

He made a promise to fans last week during the Night of Too Many Stars telethon to don dreads in return for donations to autism research. So it was a win-win deal.

Oprah will interview Justin Bieber, so what should they talk about?

Add Oprah to the list of Beliebers.

The talk-show host announced via a tweet that she would be interviewing Justin Bieber as part of her Oprah’s Next Chapter series. His episode will air Nov. 25 on OWN. Her other recent tweets inform us that she attended a Believe concert, quotes “One Less Lonely Girl” and –eat your heart out, teens! — posts a photo of herself backstage.

Oprah’s recent chats with Rihanna and Kelsey Grammer have shown that Oprah has no qualms about going there – but I can’t really think what super-scandalous revelations could come out about Bieber. His biggest threat to his image was the baby drama, which, while hilarious for a parody, turned out to be untrue.  READ FULL STORY »

Snooki curses on 'Access Hollywood Live' ... twice -- VIDEO

Snooki may have abandoned clubs for cribs, but the new mom is still struggling to control her potty mouth. The Jersey Shore star cursed twice during an Access Hollywood Live interview with Billy Bush and Kit Hoover earlier today.

Our favorite meatball first called the people who questioned her parenting skills “a**holes,” then said “sh*t” when recalling her own reservations about motherhood. The reality star is initially oblivious about her actions, then covers her mouth the second time around once she realizes what she said. Well, if Tom Hanks can drop an F-bomb on live television, Snooki should certainly be expected to.

Taylor Swift on 'Ellen': Which ex still rings her bell? -- VIDEO

Taylor Swift has a message for John Mayer, Taylor Lautner, Jake Gyllenhaal and more: Don’t send her angry emails.

Swift is on Ellen this afternoon, and in the preview clip below, she talks about trying to maintain “a shred of dignity” by not specifically naming names on songs about ex-boyfriends – because otherwise they’ll send her angry emails. Ellen DeGeneres teased her for awhile about Zac Efron – the two sang a very cute duet together when Swift was last on the program – but Swift insists they never dated, like ever. She was similarly tight-lipped about who “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” was about.

DeGeneres tried to solve the mystery, handing Swift a bell and telling her to ring it when the picture of the guy it’s about came up. She then showed pics of Joe Jonas, Justin Bieber, Mayer and others, but Swift remained silent.

Swift got introspective after many pictures, wondering what so many photos said about the length of her relationships. “There’s never been two guys on the screen two visits in a row,” she said. “It’s sad.”

She should write a song about it.

Check out the interrogation – complete with some telling silence after Cory Monteith’s picture – below: READ FULL STORY »

Honey Boo Boo fakes sleep to avoid answering Dr. Drew's questions -- VIDEO

Someone get Honey Boo Boo child her go-go juice, stat — she’s falling asleep!

A barefoot and agitated Honey Boo Boo feigned sleep yesterday in the middle of an interview with Dr. Drew in order to avoid answering his questions. The 7-year-old reality star, whose real name is Alana Thompson, has been making talk-show rounds for the last week, acting more and more restless with each interview. She groaned, snored, and flailed her arms to no avail yesterday, ultimately yelling “My fans come up to me and I hate it!” in response to Drew’s question about whether she likes being on TV. Season 2 of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo will certainly be entertaining.

Maybe Dr. Drew should stick to interviewing celebrity drug addicts and pregnant teens — they’re usually more responsive.

Father attempts intervention for Lindsay Lohan

It seems like “Confessions of a Broken Heart (Daughter to Father)” needs to be updated.

Over the weekend, the long, strange trip that is Lindsay Lohan’s life lately took another turn. Her father, Michael Lohan, who I think we can safely say is not in the running for Father of the Year, attempted to stage an intervention for Lindsay and get her a court-appointed conservatorship (like Britney Spears has). TMZ reports that Michael says Lindsay is a “substance abuser … who is hanging with the wrong group of people, including [mom] Dina Lohan.” Michael said he himself does not want to be the conservator.

This seems to be an update to a recent domestic incident with Lindsay and Dina, where Lindsay reportedly called her father about her mother saying that her mom was using cocaine. READ FULL STORY »

Taylor Swift talks songwriting, keeps mum about the Kennedys on 'Good Morning America' -- VIDEO

What’s blond and bright and Red all over? Taylor Swift, who appeared on Good Morning America just hours after her new album shot to number one on iTunes. Wearing an appropriately crimson dress, Swift was all smiles and sunniness — even when anchor George Stephanopoulos tried to sneak in a question about her tabloid-friendly relationship with Connor Kennedy. The songstress dodged the question with expert ease, saying that while she’s happy to sing about her love life, she prefers not to talk about it: “I really think that it sounds more poetic and romantic with music behind it.”

But Taylor was happy to chat about her songwriting process — “I just grab a guitar and make stuff up. Everybody’s got a different way of doing things” — the emotionally draining new tune “All Too Well,” and what makes her smile: “Mostly cats.” Oh, and in case you were looking for Tay-Tay’s TV recommendations, she’s really into CSI, Law & Order, Grey’s Anatomy, Girls, and The Mindy Project. Eclectic!

Check out the full interview below — and if you’re ever in Nashville, keep an eye out for Swift’s dad, Scott. According to Taylor, he likes to walk around giving her old guitar picks to random strangers. He sounds kind of like the Bill Murray of Tennessee.

Willow Smith covers Adele's 'Skyfall' -- VIDEO

(Children of) stars! They’re just like us. Everybody wants to be Adele.

And lately, being Adele means covering her hit James Bond theme, “Skyfall.” The Girl Who Whipped Her Hair, Willow Smith, tackles the moody tune — even playing piano — and the results, which she uploaded to YouTube, aren’t half-bad.

This isn’t the only Adele/Skyfall news recently. After her theme song sent the world ablaze, it was also used in a new version of the 007 trailer. Skyfall is in theaters in the U.S. Nov. 9.

Check our Smith’s version of the chorus below: READ FULL STORY »
