The Cast of Seinfeld Puts Their Reunion on the Cover of EW

BuzzSugar — Thu, 27 Aug 2009 15:30:57 -0700

We've known about the Seinfeld reunion on the upcoming season of Curb Your Enthusiasm for a while now, but there's something about seeing the foursome all together again in Entertainment Weekly that's making me feel extra nostalgic. (It's almost enough to make me forget about that whole Michael Richards incident from a few years back - almost). In the article, the cast dishes about what we can expect from their stint on Curb (including a revisit to Jerry's apartment and Monk's diner!) and how it feels to have the gang back together. Here are a few of my favorite quotes:

Julia Louis-Dreyfus on being back together: "It’s the anti-reunion reunion, and I’d like to copyright that."
Jason Alexander on playing George again: "Just before we shot that scene, I said to Jerry and Julia, ‘I don’t know if I can be George. I haven’t tried him on in a while,' and it was freaky how it just came right back out."
Michael Richards on seeing his former costars again: "I did feel like I was in the company of good friends. It's like, Larry and Jerry are in the front seat, Julia and Jason are in the backseat, and I'm back there in the corner and I'm like a big dog. The window's open, and my head's hanging out the window and I'm feeling all that good air on my face. And I'm just so happy that we're all together, going someplace."

I've drifted in and out of watching Curb for the last few seasons, but, like many of you, I can't wait to see the Seinfeld crew again. Jerry and Larry David also make it clear that there won't be another reunion, so this should be one for the books. Giddyup.

Racist Ranters of 2006

PopSugar — Sat, 23 Dec 2006 17:13:17 -0800

Celebs are no strangers to controversy, but a few completely lost their heads this year and found themselves in more trouble than they (or we) ever could have expected. We were absolutely shocked when Mel Gibson was pulled over for drunk driving and proceeded to verbally attack everyone around him with anti-Semitic and sexist remarks. Similarly Michael Richards went on a racist rant on two African American men at an LA nightclub. Both men have since apologized but the damage has been done. Their lovable images are tarnished and it's doubtful either of their careers will ever fully recover.

Michael Richards Apologizes

PopSugar — Tue, 21 Nov 2006 00:42:13 -0800

Last night on Late Show With David Letterman, Jerry Seinfeld was the guest and he let his good old friend take up a good portion of his interview time to apologize over his rant this weekend. Michael Richards appeared via satellite to say he was sorry for his horrible behavior this weekend. He definitely looked shook up and genuinely sorry. You can watch the clip below or read the highlights so you can decide for yourselves - Here's more

"I lost my temper on stage. I was trying to do my act and I got heckled. I took it badly and went into a rage and said some really nasty things to some Afro-Americans," Richards tells Letterman via satellite. "I'm really busted up over this. I'm really, really sorry.

"I'm concerned about the anger coming through. I'm deeply, deeply sorry. I'm not a racist, that's what so insane about this.... I just have to do personal work. I'm still reeling from this."

Michael Richards Makes Jerry (and us) Sick

PopSugar — Mon, 20 Nov 2006 11:55:07 -0800

After a disgusting, racist, hateful outburst from Michael Richards on stage at the Laugh Factory in LA this weekend, TMZ reports that his former co-star Jerry Seinfeld is speaking out. Jerry said, "I am sick over this. I'm sure Michael is also sick over this horrible, horrible mistake. It is so extremely offensive. I feel terrible for all the people who have been hurt." Still no comment from Michael or his people. We are waiting to hear what Mel has to say. Perhaps he will give him some advice on how to say he's sorry over and over again. Stay tuned.

Fab Read: Richard Avedon, Photographs 1946-2004

FabSugar — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 07:50:11 -0700

Did you enjoy your Avedon for breakfast? Good, now it's on to Avedon for lunch. After seeing his new exhibit at SFMOMA, I picked up Richard Avedon: Photographs 1946-2004 ($45). It's the first major retrospective - designed by Danish graphic designer Michael Jensen - of Avedon's work since his death in 2004. The title explains it all, but you have to see the photos to feel the impact. Bring Avedon into your home and see 125 reproductions of his greatest work, including fashion and portraits from his early Italian subjects of the '40s to his more recent shots. One of my favorite modern Avedon portraits is the 2004 shot of Bjork, mesmerizing.
