LADY GAGA - says she’s more than just eye candy. “My album covers are not sexual at all … The last thing a young woman needs is another picture of a sexy pop star writhing in sand, covered in grease, touching herself.” Actually that might be good for young girls. Being as sexy as Lady GaGa is an entirely attainable goal, like having a goal to touch your toes or “look at this.” (elle)
MATT DAMON - will not make another Jason Bourne movie without director Paul Greengrass, who walked away from the franchise this week because he and the studio can’t agree on a script. As if anyone can tell those movies apart anyway. (hollywood reporter)
KALIKA MOQUIN - is a marketing manager for The Bank nightclub in Las Vegas, but more to the point she might have been having an affair with Tiger Woods that ended in October. Even more surprising is that someone named “Kalika” is white. How the hell did that happen? (las)
RACHEL UCHITEL - is seen in these pictures at a club in the Hamptons three months ago. I’m starting to see the appeal. A good way to gauge if your implants are the right size is if you have to constantly lean backwards so you don’t tip over. Mission Accomplished! (splash)
The 66th Venice Film Festival opened yesterday, and they have a huge lineup this year with premiere screenings of ‘the Informant!’ from Steven Soderbergh and Matt Damon, and ‘Men Who Stare At Goats’ starring George Clooney.
In the formal competition are ‘Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans’ with Nic Cage and Eva Mendes, ‘the Road’ starring Viggo Mortensen (based on the Cormac McCarthy bestseller), Michael Moores new loveletter to himself about capitalism, and ‘Life During Wartime’, Todd Solondz’ sort-of sequel to ‘Happiness’.
More importantly: tits! Thanks to Italian actress Maria Grazia Cucinotta, who has been bending over with her boobs pushed together as if that were a normal pose for two days now. On the red carpet yesterday, and the day before on the beach with some kids. Apparently in Italy 4 is a good age to start being exposed to seductive sexy women with huge tits. I feel cheated.
Matt Damon spent the weekend in the Caribbean with his wife and three kids. Which is the most anyone should ever have. Three kids, I mean. You see these women with tons of kids, it’s like being married to a kangaroo, every day of your life she’s walking around with kids tucked away inside of her.
I can barely even read and I spy on my Arab neighbor because I assume he’s up to something, so I may not be the person to talk politics, but it will probably be inevitable the next few months considering how Hollywood loves to interject itself into presidential races. But for now, brace yourself, because it turns out that big stars hate Republicans. Here Matt Damon says he is scared of Sarah Palin because she’s too inexperienced. I’m not good with numbers, but Palin is a one term governor. Obama is a one term senator. That’s the same, right? One equals one right?
"I think there's a really good chance Sarah Palin could become president, and I think that's a really scary thing… I think the pick was made for political purposes… Do the actuary tables and there's a one out of three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn't survive his first term and it'll be President Palin… It's like a really bad Disney movie. The hockey mom, you know, 'oh, I'm just a hockey mom'… and she's facing down President Putin… It's totally absurd… it's a really terrifying possibility.”
I don’t think Damon is playing up the fear angle enough. He should have had some organ music in the background, and played a thunder clap and laughing witch sound every time he mentioned her name.
Matt Damon is in Hawaii today for the last day of filming "The Informant" for director Steven Sodenberg. Damon plays Mark Whitacre, the President of the BioProducts Divison and Corporate Vice President for the agriculture company Archer Daniels Midlands in the early 90’s. Whitacre turned whistleblower when he told the FBI that ADM was fixing the price of lysine. So, yes, finally, a movie that combines the thrilling saga if agriculture with the breathless pace of fat guys playing golf. This movie should give away free coffins for all the people who die from excitement.
Jimmy Kimmel and Sarah Silverman have dated for years now, but it turns out she's had a secret all this time. This video was on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night and I think it's for real. Isn't Damon married? This is gonna send shockwaves through Hollywood today. Stay tuned for breaking news as it happens.
