Kudos to Cloverfield
Finally, a film trailer that doesn’t give away the entire plot! Thank-you JJ Abrams. The brainchild behind the cult show Lost is promoting his new horror flick, Cloverfield, and has, in my opinion, the best trailer I’ve seen in a long time. These days I find that movie trailers tell the entire plotline to the point that there is no point in going to see the movie anymore. So kudos, Abrams, way to go. Check out what I’m talking about here and then check out the movie when it hits theatres January 18, if only just to support the non-giveaway trailers!

Lohan’s triple tongue tango
Like Carmen Sandiego, I’ve been asking myself where in the world is Lindsay Lohan? The tartlette’s been laying low as of late but she seems to have decided to make up for lost time by kissing not one, not two, but three guys in the span of 24 hours. According to the UK’s Daily Mail (who has a lovely selection of photographic evidence as well as mugs shots of the men here), la-la-la-Lohan was in Capri for a film fest when she met her first victim. Alessandro Di Nunzio, a waiter, went from a number exchange to a saliva exchange. Then she played tonsil hockey with an older Italian actor who the Mail identified as Eduardo Costa (in which case he’s pretty low pro, however, it could be a typo and be Edoardo Costa who was some dude named Emerson in Live Free or Die Hard). And finally there was another Italian actor, Dario Faiella (said to be the son of some Italiano music man named Peppino di Capri), who took the top prize and got to go back to her hotel where he was snapped shirtless on her balcony. Lohan, you saucy little minx!
Knocked Up star wants to get knocked up
Knocked Up’s Katherine Heigl is apparently feeling broody and ready to star popping out the babies. "I'd like to start talking children seriously in the next year, but Josh feels more like two years, so we'll probably do a year and a half,” Grey’s Anatomy’s Izzie, who recently wed singer Josh Kelley, was quoted as saying by the World Entertainment News Network. “I'm excited about having a big family. I'm talking five or six." I told InsideEonline.com that I think Heigl might be trying to compete with Justin Chambers, her Grey’s costar who already has five kiddies.
Ripper war?
Paris Hilton and Britney Spears could be headed toward a cataclysmic catfight by stepping on each other’s turf if they both open their own strip clubs in Sin City. “Britney was excited about this project for months and is really pissed with Paris that things have come to this,” a source told the UK’s Daily Star. “And that’s even before she heard Paris has been partying with Kevin [Federline]. Britney has always thought of stripping as a bit like art – as a skill. So when some Vegas-based developers approached her about investing money into three exclusive strip joints, which she wants to call Toxic Heaven, she jumped at the chance. But then Paris heard about the plans through her younger sister Nicky, who is a hotelier, and jumped on the bandwagon. She [was] wanting to open her own strip joints, calling them Shagadillic. Paris is now in talks with business developers about the idea and wants to involve Nicky to keep it within the family. She thinks they can trounce Britney.” Oh yeah, and the icing on the cake: it was purportedly Paris who taught Spears to strip in the first place. Ha!

Stop! It’s Hammer time… again!
Here Comes the (MC) Hammer again but this time he’s not on your radio, he’s heading to the Internet with the website DanceJam. "There is no high-tech lingo or business strategy that you can talk that is above my head. I breathe this stuff," the has-been-who-is-trying-to-be-again told the Associated Press. U Can’t Touch This, but you can watch the homemade dance vids that’ll appear on his site that’s comparable to YouTube (which he allegedly hopes to rival). However, Forrester Research’s James McQuivey said: "When people are looking for any video, whether it be about skateboarding, dancing or a science project, they don't stop to think about where's the best place to find it… They just start off by going to YouTube." Like the Evolution of Dance, my personal favourite (click here to see it). Sorry Hammer, it may be 2 Legit, but I think you should Quit!
Chris Rock burns Britney
Comedian Chris Rock rocked Britney Spears when he humoured thousands at his New Year’s Eve performance. "Britney Spears, boy,” Rock said while starting in on the Toxic singer, the New York Post’s Page Six reported. “Even OJ kept his kids, and he even killed their mother… Britney went and messed up her dance moves at the MTV awards and they took her kids away. Go rehearse and get your kids back." Rock on Rock!
Hudgens hopes fans will learn from photo scandal
Teenybopper idol Vanessa Hudgens had some pics slip on the Internet last year that would have totally landed her on Santa’s naughty list. "It was very traumatic, and I am extremely upset it happened," the High School Musical star told Seventeen magazine about the nudie pics. "I hope all my fans can learn from my mistake and make smart decisions." Seriously, be more careful with your private pics and always erase evidence when done!

Celebs disclose their “New Year’s Resolutions”
Every year stars spew their silly new year’s resolutions: I’m going to do more the environment, I’m going to eat healthy, I’m going to win an Oscar, blah, blah, blah. Now, finally, there’s a compilation of freakin’ funny resolutions on the fabulously funny site FunnyOrDie.com. The Black Eyed Pea’s humpalicious Fergie declared she’d try to be less Fergalicious. "It's kind of old now,” the singer said of her answer to Beyoncé’s Bootylicious. "People have said it, they've gone into Burgerlicious, and all these things. It's so over, so last year. New year, new word. I've got to figure the new word out. But it will come, it will come." That ‘70s Show’s Mila Kunis said she’s "going to start dating more, because my kids need a new dad." (Wonder what her former child star boyf, Macaulay Culkin, will think about that.) Will Ferrell, one of the freakin’ funny masterminds behind the stoopidly funny site, announced: "My New Year's resolution is to get at least 13 hours of sleep a night, regardless of what sort of job or family or life commitments I have, but to really be consistent about that." Now that’s a resolution I can dig!

Puh-leeze Posh
Victoria Beckham tried to claim she’s not a media whore who craves the spotlight like a fat kid does Smarties. "[My family spends] a lot of time socializing at home so we don't get photographed… I couldn't live a life where I was under the spotlight everyday," Posh told Extra. "If you look at someone like Britney Spears, I couldn't do that. I've got to have my privacy at home with my husband and my children otherwise,I'd end up going loopy." Of course if one had a hubby like David Beckham they should want to stay home (and in bed), but it seems like there’s a Beckham, like, all the time (plus their appearances in rag mags seem to be on par, if not more frequent than the Toxic singer). And if anyone saw her show, Victoria Beckham: Coming to America (which, by the way, was awesome!), they would have seen someone who seems to love hamming it up for the camera.

Kim Kardashian and her awesome Oreo
Kim Kardashian may seem slightly useless, being known mainly for of partying, for her sex tape with Ray J and being friends with Paris Hilton (all things to be proud of), but she may have something to contribute to the repertoire of junk food junkies. While talking to People magazine she mentioned a tasty treat that sounds like it could be sinfully delicious: a deep fried Oreo. "There's nothing even remotely healthy about that, but it's so, so good," she said. Ohmygawd! I’ve had deep fried Mars bars, but this brings deep fried foods to a whole new level! Kudos Kim!
