The Academy Awards are arguably the classiest annual event in entertainment. Yet some A-listers likeCher, Cameron Diaz and Demi Moore, all of whom work dang hard to keep their bodies taut and toned, can’t resist the urge to slut it up. We’re not sure if high slits, deep Vs, and revealing mesh are appropriate Oscars attire, but we’re not complaining. Here’s a collection of actresses for whom modesty is not their red carpet policy.
Despite endless questioning about his mutable hairline, John Travolta has talked about his smooth skull in From Paris, With Love as if it was a miracle of technology and shaving cream (they had to use Photoshop to see how he’d look without hair, you know), rather than proof that the actor is bald, bald, bald, bald. But if the blatant cross-hatching under his widow’s peak at the French premiere of From Paris, With Love this week doesn’t get the former sweathog to admit Xenu’s taken a little more off the top than being let on, nothing will.
Thankfully, the actor has been hinting that he might let his hair go gracefully—once that becomes an issue, of course. “I was worried my whole life about losing my hair and now it’s a celebratory thing. Everybody’s loving it. I’m relieved.” We bet. “Not only did [wife] Kelly [Preston] like it but they did an on-line survey and 99 per cent of people preferred it to my usual look. I might just go bald and bearded full-time from now on.” Time to put your money where your mouth is, John—and off your scalp.
That’s right, ladies…he’s legal! New Moon studmuffin Taylor Lautner turns 18 today, freeing a nation of ab enthusiasts to incorporate his ridonkolous chassis into their slash fiction. Next time some Twi-hard’s mother asks Taylor to sign her underwear, there’s nothing keeping him from whisking the aging Team Jacob member away on a moonlight motorcycle ride before putting the F in MILF at a four-star hotel. Nothing criminal, anyway.
Celebrate Taylor’s entree into manhood by popping on “Hungry Like The Wolf” and scouring the mega-gallery below.
Simply put, this is Megan Fox - and her toe thumbs - in her underwear. She’s the latest model for Armani’s lingerie line, and above is the video ad supporting their new line. But it is so much more than that. IT’S MEGAN FOX IN HER UNDERWEAR, people! Something only the dude who played David Silver on “90210″ gets to see! We should be all be taking the day off from work to full honor and appreciate this moment. Have fun clicking play on this clip over and over again!
Well, that’s one way to forget Sarah Marshall. Old co-stars Russell Brand andJason Segel locked lips at the Stand For Haiti concert in LA yesterday, a benefit featuring Tenacious D, The Shins, Aimee Mann and Black Francis of The Pixies. Too bad Jack Black didn’t get in on this, right?
Considering Katy Perry’s enthusiasm for same-sex flirtation, the smooch probably guarantees Segel a spot at their wedding, which the comedian has joked might be clothing-optional. “We are going to do the wedding naked! All the families will be naked! We’re still deciding what to do.” Judging from his revealing performance in Marshall, Segel shouldn’t have any qualms if they do decide to go nude.
Ok, yes. Mel Gibson called Chicago entertainment reporter Dean Richards an “a–hole” at WGN-TV yesterday. But let’s acknowledge the circumstances that led to the Edge Of Darkness star’s profanity.
Mel was tired. First thing Richards does is thank Mel for appearing for a live-via-satellite interview so early in the morning. While visibly a little edgy, the actor laughs and flashes his coffee cup. Pleasant enough.
Mel was called an old man. Richards opens the interview by saying the film was “like visiting an old friend” and asking if it was tougher to do stunts now. Mel diplomatically admits it “always gets harder” and that you don’t “bounce back” as easily, and makes a chiropractor joke. See? He didn’t start pissed off.
Mel kind of already answered the question. When asked why he stopped starring in films after 2002’s Signs, Mel says he had some “bad habits” he wanted to shake off, and says he hopes “maturation has done its job in another way.” Kinda vague, but he’s earned a nice, puffball question, right?
Mel kind of already answered the question twice. Richards asks him if he thinks he’s a better person than he was four years ago, following a lot of “ups and downs”—what are you, Barbara Walters, Dean?—and Mel gives an honest reaction, saying it’s been a “real rollercoaster” but that “time teaches and you learn as go.” Time to talk about the movie again, right?
This guy really was an a–hole. Refusing to drop the subject, Richards asks if Mel thinks the public will accept him after the “drinking problems…anti-semitic rant.” Classy! “That’s almost four years ago, dude,” the star responds. “I’ve moved on, I guess you haven’t.” Dean asks again. “I certainly hope they have. I’ve done all the necessary mea culpas. Let’s move on.” Rather than move on, Richards ends the interview with a loaded “good to see you back in the saddle and doing what you do best” (which apparently isn’t directing blockbuster epics like Passion Of The Christ). Mel gives him a thumbs up and a “bye bye” before muttering “a–hole.”
So was the network. In the aired interview, posted after the jump, WGN apparently excised Mel’s parting gift to the reporter, only to publish it online when they realized what a score they had. While no one denies Mad Max is a hot head with some less-than-lovable traits, it’s hard to call his actions here anything more than justified.
At the HBO after-party following the Globes, Straw Dogs co-starsKate Bosworth and Alexander Skarsgard were seen doing their fair share of butt-grabbing and kissing. Skarsgard reportedly denied seeing anyone when an E! reporter asked him earlier that night, so maybe he was just getting a closer look as Bosworth’s multicolored eyes. The weirdest pairing we’ve heard of, though, is the rumored hookup between Mad Men’s January Jones and everyone’s favorite mercury-survivor Jeremy Piven. The pair was seen canoodling at the awards and then left an after-party at Chateau Marmont together. Between Jones’ crappy appearance on SNL earlier this season and now this, we’re thinking maybe Betty Draper’s humorless personality and taste in sketchy men isn’t really a stretch after all.
If people are this frisky at the Golden Globes, we can’t wait to see what’ll happen at the Oscars. [Photo: Getty Images]
Kim Kardashian’s sex tape shows she’s into some crazy stuff, but getting peed on is pretty wild, even for her! The reality star stopped by her pal Ashton Kutcher’s company Katalyst, while they were filming, and ended up with a little more than she bargained for. “They had this little monkey that the magician, Dynamo, made appear,” Kim blogs. “I thought he was really cute at first, but then he peed on me!” Please, Kim, we know that’s not the first time you’ve said that!
Despite the pee-pee mishap, Kim didn’t let getting messy keep her from having a good time. “Ashton said the monkey had pooped on him, so I didn’t feel too bad, haha,” she said. We can always count on Kim to get down and dirty and keep on smiling!
Tom Cruise - a spy? No, it’s not the plot of Mission Impossible #1997301 - Suri’s dad is being sued by magazine editor Michael Davis Sapir, who claims Tom hired a private investigator to illegally wiretap his phone. Michael is accusing Tom, attorney Bert Fields, and jailed private investigator Anthony Pellicano of conspiring to spy on him.
This is not the first time Tom and Michael have been at odds. In 2001, Tom sued Michael for $100 million after Michael claimed to have a video of the A-List actor engaging in homosexual activities. That lawsuit was settled later that year. Now Michael is suing for $5 million, and Tom’s team is vehemently denying his claims. “The allegations are absolute garbage. We did not even hire Pellicano to work on the Sapir case,” Bert says.
Besides, who needs a P.I. when you have Suri Cruise? She is always sneaking into things, and although she smiles through her cupcake frosting, that little Scientolotot is probably really the one behind this whole operation. When her parents weren’t looking, Suri snuck out to the spy shop and picked up a couple wireless spy cameras and listening devices and set up a little private investigation office in the basement. Tom and Katie have no idea - they haven’t been down there in years. [Source: TMZ, Photo: Getty Images]
Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal broke up, but her ex Ryan Phillippe is reportedly suffering from a break too - in his foot! Ryan was spotted sporting a cast on his left foot, and sadly he does not have a very cool story to tell about how he got injured. A fight? Nope! Making the winning goal in a soccer game with his pals? Nope! Ryan reportedly suffered a stress fracture during an exercise session while running on his treadmill - barefoot! Ryan - you have two kids! Hopefully they wear tennis shoes! [Photo: Getty Images]
