Sex scenes in new Twilight movie Breaking Dawn not as wild as vampire baby birth?

Twilight Breaking Dawn Movie Rumors!

Sex scenes in new Twilight movie Breaking Dawn not as wild as new baby birth?

[May 3]

Twihards, brace yourselves. Breaking Dawn, the latest in the Twilight franchise, is ramped to be the most gory and visceral film yet in the series. While we’ve heard that the sex scenes filmed for Breaking Dawn are going to be, shall we say, titillating, Kristin Stewart and Robert Pattinson have confirmed that the birth scenes may have an even bigger impact on the audience.

Director Bill Condon told Entertainment Weekly:

“We shot everything — whether it’s the lovemaking or the childbirth — as potent and powerful as it can be. It will be interesting to see whether there will be people who think it too disturbing for this universe.”

And Kristin Stewart wishes it were even more gory. Regarding the PG-13 issue, the Huffington Post quotes Stewart as saying:

“It’s funny because when [the PG-13 issue] comes up, everybody thinks it’s all about the sex. The birth is really effective, and I’ve heard it really hits you in the face. But what it could have been? It could have been shocking and grotesque, because that’s how it was written in the book. I would have loved to have been puking up blood.”

But in spite of the darkness and gore that will be a hallmark of Breaking Dawn Parts One and Two (the first to hit theaters November 18, and the second to arrive about a year later), Kristin Stewart also says the wedding scene is very powerful. “And it was just so perfect for me in that moment. It was so emotional in such a real way,” she told Entertainment Weekly. In a real way, hm? Maybe she is fantasizing about the real thing with Robert Pattinson and not just the Bella and Edward mock wedding.

Hollywood Gossip: Did Steve Carell quit The Office for new movie roles?

Hollywood Gossip!

Did Steve Carell quit The Office for new movie roles?

[May 3]

Comedian and actor Steve Carell, famous for his role as a middle manager in The Office and often called the greatest boss ever, aired his final appearance in his final episode of the show April 28, 2011. He has received five Emmy nominations and a Golden Globe trophy for his role in the show. The Hollywood gossip about his motivation to quit The Office appears to be true. He is leaving television to focus on his new movie career.

Says co-star Rainn Wilson, as reported by Entertainment Weekly:

“Actually, the last day of shooting with Steve was more intense than I anticipated it would be,” Wilson continued. “There actually wasn’t a dry eye in the house. It was really sad. It was very difficult to make comedy when there was a heaviness hanging over the proceedings. It’s a great episode. Steve is magnificent in it. Maybe he’ll finally win that Emmy he has deserved for like seven years.”

Steve Carell felt the loss too, as he explained to Ellen on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, according to a report from Access Hollywood. He said he’d known for a year that he’d be leaving the cast, and that he thought he was emotionally prepared, but he said he didn’t know just how unprepared he would be for the bittersweet departure. And he’s admitted that he’s getting lazy now with little to do.

Celebrity Scandal: Mike Tyson tattoo artist suing over Hangover 2 satire

Celebrity Scandal!

Mike Tyson tattoo artist suing Hangover 2 producers?

[Apr. 30]

Artist S. Victor Whitmill, the creator and designer of former heavyweight champion boxer Mike Tyson’s facial tattoo, is suing Warner Bros. over a similar tattoo design planted on actor Ed Helms’ face in the upcoming movie Hangover 2. In the suit, Whitmill seeks an unspecified amount in damages and seeks also an injunction to block the opening of Hangover 2 over Memorial Day weekend.

Whitmill calls the tattoo design “one of the most distinctive tattoos in the nation,” according to Reuters:

“When Mr. Whitmill created the Original Tattoo, Mr Tyson agreed that Mr. Whitmill would own the artwork and thus, the copyright in the Original Tattoo,” argues the complaint, filed Thursday in federal court in Missouri.

But there is a catch. Mike Tyson appeared in the original Hangover film, and it remains to be seen if the tattoo design (which is not exact) is fair use as a parody, given Tyson’s multiple appearances in the first film. Whitmill has sent pictures of him doing the work on Tyson’s face along with documentation with Tyson’s signature that show Whitmill does in fact own the copyright to the tattoo. But Whitmill didn’t ask for compensation when Tyson appeared in the first Hangover film, so what’s the difference now, even if he owns the copyright?

Warner Bros. has declined to comment, although Warner Bros. did in the past pay out a hefty sum to release The Dukes of Hazzard, when a judge issued an injunction just weeks before, regarding the authorship of the source material involved. Will the same thing happen to Hangover 2?

Celebrity Divorce: Olivia Wilde house no longer her celebrity home?

Celebrity Divorce!

Soon to be single actress and swimsuit model Olivia Wilde moves out of marital home in Venice, California?

[Apr. 26]

Television stars and movie stars often keep celebrity homes in California where they can live and work. But what happens when celebrity couples who live together out west in Tinseltown divorce? Eventually, they move out of course.

House actress Olivia Wilde has allegedly been playing house with her husband even though she filed for divorce back on March 11 of 2011. The Tron movie starlet and gorgeous model (who is as much brains as hot bod health and fitness icon) needed a place to stay and Venice, California was the place she called home with husband Tai Ruspoli — until now.

The website RumorFix claims, “the brunette beauty, who is divorcing husband Tao Ruspoli for irreconcilable differences, has moved out of their Venice, California home.”

Olivia Wilde, the actress who plays the bisexual character Thirteen on House was married for eight years and the couple did not seem to have any big drama in the press to show theirs was anything other than a happy home. The celebrity gossip website that verifies truth and rumor reports in entertainment journals reports the “hot in Hollywood” actress has moved completely across town and now is living in the trendy, up and coming Silverlake area.

We bet the swimsuit model is increasing the property values there for sure. Wonder if her new place has a pool?

The more important question is, however, why she and Tao elected to file for divorce.

To date, neither side has voiced any real explanation of how or why love went wrong for the pair — but inside sources speculate that as Olivia Wilde became more wild in her photo shoots and also made her on screen debut in Tron, the 3D picture sequel with actor Jeff Bridges, that it became clear the actress had outgrown her marriage — and he, underwhelming compared to her despite his own fame — may have grown increasingly jealous.

Such is the way of too many Hollywood marriages.

We wish the celebrity couple well as they learn to live life as single people — a task that is always challenging at best, if not downright difficult.

Lindsay Lohan lost Victoria Gotti role bid, but will play Gotti Jr wife?

Lindsay Lohan lost Victoria Gotti role bid, but will play Gotti Jr wife?

[Apr. 20]

Troubled Disney princess and actress Lindsay Lohan is out of the running to play Victoria Gotti alongside John Travolta in his new film Gotti: Three Generations, according to a representative for Fiore Films, reports Access Hollywood. This would have been the first film role for Lohan since she was in rehab early this year. The star supposedly was hand-picked by Victoria Gotti herself, with whom the Lohan family is friends.

Just last week, Lohan was discussing her proposed role in the film. Access Hollywood reports:

“I’ve been speaking to some of the producers… and we’re discussing me possibly having a role in the film, which is very exciting,” Lindsay told a crew at the press conference for the project last week.

“I think it’s an amazing story in the things that the Gottis have gone through over the years and just everything that comes with that family. I think is an incredible story to tell,” she added.

But the representative for Fiore Films confirmed that the green celebrity actress was turned down: “Discussions have been broken between Fiore Films and Lindsay Lohan playing Victoria Gotti,” the rep said.

Instead, the Wall Street Journal is reporting that Lohan has been tapped to play the wife of Junior Gotti in the film. She said it would be a “great honor” to work with superstars John Travolta, who plays John Gotti, Sr., and Joe Pesci, who plays Angelo Ruggiero, one of Gotti’s deputies.

Strange News: Liv Tyler inspired Elf Ears plastic surgery trend?

Strange News!

Liv Tyler inspired Elf Ears new plastic surgery trend for youth too young to remember original Star Trek?

[Apr. 16]

Spock ears, or elf ears as they are known to the younger generation that grew up watching the Lord Of The Rings trilogy instead of the original Star Trek, are becoming all the rage among young folks experimenting with a cadre of new body modifications, including tongue splitting, unusual piercings, and even prosthetic horns. However, these pointed ears are actually quite elegant in their appearance, lending themselves gracefully to slim, long faces.

But there are green celebrities who have popularized the look. Feminine faces especially seem to reap the benefit, as many have fallen for the elf character played by green celebrity Liv Tyler in Lord of the Rings. [For anyone who has lived under a rock the past three decades, actress Liv Tyler is the daughter of Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler who is the new judge on American Idol.]

And while green celebrity Leonard Nimoy and his Star Trek Vulcan character Spock popularized the pointed ear look in the 1960s, the look is becoming popular again. Now there are body modification artists capable of performing the surgery almost as simple as an ear or nose piercing, even if more painful than a typical piercing.
