Samuel L. Jackson, Because He’s So Badass

Friday, April 25th, 2008

I so rarely get to write about Sammy, because he’s always keeping himself out of trouble and being a respected actor. But I just adore him, although his age is definitely starting to show lately.

Here he is promoting his film Cleaner in Paris. I love that he’s dressed up all Paris-style. Tres chic!

He’s posing with his wife, LaTania Richardson, who he’s been married to since 1980. I love that, too. He didn’t get really famous until several years after he married her, but he’s stuck with the same chick ever since. And he still likes her enough to take her with him on work-related trip to Paris. Now that’s badass.

I Think It’s Safe to Say That Britney’s on the Bally’s Payroll

Friday, April 25th, 2008

After making an inexplicable stop at the Bally’s in Culver City earlier this week, the Britster stopped off at the Bally’s in Ventura for what I’m sure will be a hardcore, sports-bra-free work-out. Like Culver City, Ventura’s way far from any of Britney’s homes, and it just doesn’t make any sense for her to be there (and for photogs to spontaneously appear in Ventura) unless Bally’s is paying her for these appearances and tipping off the paparazzi agencies. Like, I used to work out at the Spectrum in Pacific Palisades — this was during the two weeks of my life that I worked out — which is close to BOTH of Britney’s homes and is way better than a Bally’s. (And is a great place to go celeb-spotting, BTW.) Why wouldn’t Britney go there instead?

Anyway.

There’s a stain on her shirt. And it looks like soda. Who the hell drinks soda before a work-out?

I Sincerely Hope This is for a Role

Friday, April 25th, 2008

Here’s John Travolta watching Michael Eisner take his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

I really hope he’s sporting the new facial hair for a film role. Like, where he’s playing some sinister, conniving, manipulative villain. Say, for instance, the starring role in the L. Ron Hubbard biopic?

Ugh. Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer Now?

Friday, April 25th, 2008

In a year or so, we’ll all be playing games of Six Degrees of John Mayer’s Penis on road trips.

Seriously, this dude is just working his way through Hollywood.

Up now: John Mayer and newly single Jennifer Aniston, sharing an intimate lunch at Michael’s Genuine Food & Drink in Miami.

“I can’t speculate on what kind of meeting it was but they looked happy and seemed to have a great time,” says the manager. Apparently Jen ordered a salad, but ate some of John’s ham sandwich (and I mean that in a strictly literal sense, kids), and they split some manner of chocolate peanut butter dessert.

Cute.

I Guess This Is What Passes for Business Casual These Days

Friday, April 25th, 2008

Pamela Anderson is in DC for the White House Press Correspondents Association Dinner (why was I not invited???), and she decided to make a stop on Capitol Hill and hand-deliver a PETA report on outdated animal tests performed by the U.S. government to the Department of Health and Human Services.

I think what the report indicates is that there are safer, less cruel ways to test products on animals, but the government insists on using older methods anyway.

The guy she’s with is totally gay an SVP at PETA.

Vanessa Hudgens Knows What’s Up

Friday, April 25th, 2008

In a brief interview/photo shoot for GQ magazine, 19-year-old Vanessa Hudgens manages to get this quote in:

“If you have paparazzi, you know you’ve gotten somewhere.”

Smart girl. And it doesn’t really matter how you managed to attract those paparazzi once they’re with you, now does it, dear?

Also, GQ decided to title the article “High School Lolita.”

Loves it.

I SWEAR This Was Not Me

Friday, April 25th, 2008

A 22-year-old girl was arrested at Chicago’s Crimson Lounge on Thursday night after jumping into Samantha Ronson’s DJ booth and refusing to leave.

“She was only 100 pounds, but she managed to take two of my own security guys down,” Crimson’s general manager Matthew McCahill told E! News. “I just looked over and I saw that two of my guys were down. I know she kneed one of them, but I don’t know how she got the other one down.”

Ahhhhhhhhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha. I wish I could take credit for this, you guys, but I have plenty of witnesses who can place me in Seattle at the time the incident took place.

You know who else was there?

Yup: Lindsay Lohan, who appears to be following Samantha around the country. It’s so silly that they feel they can’t just come out and say they’re dating. Like, unless Lindsay is suddenly Samantha’s personal assistant, there’s no other decent explanation for her following SamRo to all her gigs everywhere in the country. Like, I have close girlfriends, but, when they travel for work, I don’t come along. Hmmm. I know: maybe Samantha Ronson is trying to get clean, and Lindsay Lohan is her full-time sobriety coach. Yes. That makes a lot more sense.

Linds and SamRo are currently on their way to Vegas, where Samantha’s DJ’ing tonight and tomorrow night at Planet Hollywood.
