Wentworth Miller

Wentworth Back Wentworth

How about a little Wentworth for your weekend?

How about a little Wentworth for your weekend? We are happy to remind you all that Monday night is the return of Prison Break. The first half of the season was starting to lose me but I must say the scenes for the second are sucking me back in. Besides, nothing is hotter than Mondays with Michael Scofield and Jack Bauer.

Kiefer Sutherland

Muslim Groups Upset with 24's Lack of Imagination

Keifer Sutherland took a break from filming 24 (at least we think he's on a break, but he is still rocking the Jack Bauer signature faded black sweatshirt and scowl, so who knows) to enjoy the Santa Monica sun the other day.

Keifer Sutherland took a break from filming 24 (at least we think he's on a break, but he is still rocking the Jack Bauer signature faded black sweatshirt and scowl, so who knows) to enjoy the Santa Monica sun the other day. The sixth season of 24 started off with its fill of excitement, but not everyone is so happy with the show.

Musim-American groups are upset at the show's constant portrayal of Muslim people as terrorists. The Council on American-Islam Relations released a statement saying, "Repeated association of acts of terrorism with Islam will only serve to increase anti-Muslim prejudice." In response Fox has said, "24 is a heightened drama about anti-terrorism. Any individual, family, or group (ethnic or otherwise) that engages in violence is not meant to be typical." We're hard pressed to think of a Muslim non-terrorist in the show's history (not counting this season, because there's no guarantees yet), but hopefully Fox will find a way to counteract these stereotypes. After all, it's hard to stay mad at the people who brought us Jack Bauer.

Nick's Lovin' It

Nick is currently in London promoting his album.

Nick is currently in London promoting his album. Rumor is that Nick proposed to Vanessa, but we've heard this one before so not sure we buy it. Apparently they're planning a wedding for April. A source said, "Since they both love Baja, Mexico, it will probably happen south of the border, where they first fell in love." We did just see the two looking totally in love in Cabo, but you told us you think a 2007 wedding is just too soon. Stay tuned...

Jay-Z

Jay-Z's No Good Very Bad Week

Jay-Z was all smiles at a press conference regarding his NJ (Brooklyn) Nets, but elsewhere in his life things are slightly more tumultuous.

Jay-Z was all smiles at a press conference regarding his NJ (Brooklyn) Nets, but elsewhere in his life things are slightly more tumultuous. This week not only brought the fallout from his Rocawear faux fur trim actually being dog hair debacle, but now his old friend Jacob the Jeweler is calling Jay (among others like Diddy and Mariah Carey) in as a witness in the jeweler to the stars' money laundering trial.

To top it all of, we're sure his girl Beyonce is less-than-thrilled with her two Golden Globe losses. So...if my math is correct, I think we're at about 101 problems and counting. For more of Jay-Z hyping his beloved Nets just read more

Politics

Hillary is In It to Win It

Clinton '08? After months (years, really) of speculation, Hillary Clinton officially announced on her website that she will form an exploratory committee to run for president.

Clinton '08? After months (years, really) of speculation, Hillary Clinton officially announced on her website that she will form an exploratory committee to run for president. "I'm in. And I'm in to win," she announced. Political allegiances aside, it's thrilling to see a woman throw her hat into the race.

Hillary has a long, hard road ahead of her, but at least she's got a ton of first hand experience on presidential races. And really, wouldn't Bill just look great as America's first First Man?

Jake Gyllenhaal

Jake Wants To Try Showing You The Funny (You Know, as Long as You Forget His First Attempt)

It's no secret that Jakey G is a great actor and takes his job very seriously, but we can't help but dream about the day when we can see him in a lighter role (and maybe with some romantic scenes that exist outside of our heads, please).

It's no secret that Jakey G is a great actor and takes his job very seriously, but we can't help but dream about the day when we can see him in a lighter role (and maybe with some romantic scenes that exist outside of our heads, please). His two upcoming movies, Rendition and Zodiac, are serious roles as well and while these more serious flicks are sure to showcase his superior acting talents, Jake admits that he wouldn't mind getting into comedy. Here's more:

Funny, when you asked that before, I thought of humor as the way I wanted things to go - because so many of the things I've done have been serious. Humor has been a part of myself that I haven't acknowledged in my work.

Oh really, Jake? We seem to remember a little film called Bubble Boy that certainly showcased a comedic side (if you can really even call that a comedy). Don't try to pull a fast one on us and claim you've never tried funny.

However it would be nice to see him take another stab at a funny movie. We know he's got it in him to be hilarious. Until then, we'll continue drooling over his latest GQ spread!

You're a Little Worried About Lohan as a Role Model...

Lohan's in rehab and it seems that everyone has an opinion.

Lohan's in rehab and it seems that everyone has an opinion. We're sure you're sick of hearing ours, so we went out on the street to see what you guys had to say about Linds. Hey, at least only one person hadn't heard the news and was too overcome to talk...

Now it's your turn...

You can now add video clips to the comments section of each post to let us know how you really feel about all of the this gossip nonsense. Just upload your video onto YouTube and embed it in the comment section. Since we love hearing your opinion, if you make us, laugh, cry or maybe even sick then we'll post your clip in our new video round up feature on PopSugar!

Diddy

Diddy Gets Denied

Diddy was caught on the wrong side of the velvet rope earlier this week.

Diddy was caught on the wrong side of the velvet rope earlier this week. Apparently the party host with the most was denied entry to a popular CAA Golden Globes after party. The hotel owner even threatened Diddy that he would call the police if he didn't leave. Diddy didn't take the rejection well. He said, "Just try it - I'll spend the rest of my life hunting you down!" No worries though, Diddy ended up moving along and partying his blues away at Prince's party.

Kate Moss

Somehow Pete Doherty is Still a Wise Investment

Kate Moss isn't the only half of her completely unholy maybe someday union who can bring home the big money.

Kate Moss isn't the only half of her completely unholy maybe someday union who can bring home the big money. That's right, someone still thinks it's a bright idea to throw large sums of cash at the least reliable man in the world, Pete Doherty. The oft-arrested musician signed an approximately $2 million, three album deal for his solo project, babyshambles.

He celebrated his success by, get this, actually showing up to a scheduled concert on time. This after earlier this week when a judge told Pete that he was making great progress in his drug rehab. I mean, I can't even remember the last time he was arrested. Baby steps, people.

Angelina Jolie

Ryan Seacrest Upset Over Angelina Snub

Many have been wondering why Angelina was acting so cold at the Golden Globes.

Many have been wondering why Angelina was acting so cold at the Golden Globes. In fact, red carpet interviewer Ryan Seacrest was shocked at Angelina's behavior when he attempted to ask her a few questions before the show (if you missed it, check out Ryan's interview with Brad and Angie below). He voiced his opinions about the incident on his KIIS-FM radio show Wednesday morning. Here's highlights:

  • “I asked her four questions and she didn’t even answer me,” he complained. “I literally stood there and tried to ask a couple of questions. At one point I just kind of let the E! microphone sit in front of her for a second to see if she was going to acknowledge it, and she clearly wanted nothing to do with me or my question or my answer or any of it.”
  • The host went on to praise the actress for her charity work, but complained about her dour expression on the red carpet: “I think doing good is fantastic. A lot of people are benefiting around the world from their doing of all of these nobles things. But smile."

We know that the celebs must hate saying the same thing over and over on the red carpet, but they are there to plug themselves and their work so they are supposed to be prepared to talk talk talk. Who knows, maybe something happened before they got to Ryan so Angie was just not in the mood.
