Feb 23 2009The Most Important People Ever. (Until about noon-ish.)
Here are the most important actors of the moment despite the fact not one of them has been a guest star on Lost. Try and figure that one out. Anyway, the winners of the 81st Annual Academy Awards:
Best Actress: Kate Winslet, The Reader
Best Supporting Actress: Penelope Cruz, Vicky Cristina Barcelona
Best Actor: Sean Penn, Milk
Best Supporting Actor: Heath Ledger, The Dark Knight
I feel kind of bad that I've only seen one of the four movies listed above, and it wasn't even the one where Penelope Cruz makes out with Scarlett Johansson. That's like sleeping through Christmas. Twice.
NOTE: For the whole 2009 Oscars enchilada scope out I Watch Stuff.com's liveblog coverage. Because I'm lazy.

Feb 19 2009Kate Winslet makes a shocking announcement
After being nominated for an avalanche of acting awards and having her picture taken with Daniel Craig, Kate Winslet is ready to stop being the best actress in the world - by quitting nude scenes cold turkey. Her latest role in The Reader could be the last time you see Kate Winslet do the naked stuff, according to Time:
When Daldry approached her about replacing Nicole Kidman, who had left the project in January 2008 after becoming pregnant, "I was concerned about whether I was skilled enough," Winslet says. The nudity required for the film's sex scenes didn't unsettle her — though she now says, "I think I won't do it again: a) I can't keep getting away with it, and b) I don't want to become 'that actress who always gets her kit off.'"
"That actress who always gets her kit off." I don't get it. Is she walking around arousing small felines? Because that's kind of messed up. Even for the British.

Jan 26 2009Mickey Rourke offers to show Kate Winslet his SAG
In a legendary red carpet encounter at yesterday's Screen Actor Guild awards, Best Actor and Actress nominees Mickey Rourke and Kate Winslet shared a brief "How do you do?" that ended with Mickey blatantly fondling himself at the sight of Kate's breasts. Sure, both of them went on to lose the aforementioned categories, but it's obvious who the real winner was: Chivalry. It's coming back.

Jan 22 2009Heath Ledger nominated for Oscar
Heath Ledger has cinched a posthumous Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor in The Dark Knight which, surprisingly, did not garner a Best Picture nom nor Best Director nom for Christopher Nolan. I blame Katie Holmes. Look what you did!
Anyway, scope out the pics gallery for other notable nominees including the couple most responsible for overpopulation and the alleged homophobe who played a gay guy.

Jan 14 2009Oprah wants to marry Kate Winslet's breasts
Oprah Winfrey must be feeling the effects of her new diet because she practically proposed marriage to Kate Winslet's breasts on her show yesterday. Us Magazine reports:
"I love the fact that you have real breasts, 'cause in all the breast scenes, your breasts do what real breasts do," she said Tuesday on The Oprah Winfrey Show.
"There's that wonderful thing, you know, if you are a woman, you're lying on your back, your breasts they go to – they part – but if you look at a woman with not real breasts, their breasts are sticking straight up," she told the actress, who won two Golden Globes Sunday. "That's how you know. God bless your real breasts!"
Wait a minute, I see what's happening here: Oprah's after my job! Yeah, well, two can play at this game. I want everyone to reach under their seats - and pull out the keys to your new car! WHOO! Now, I realize some of you might not have keys under your chair and that's because, congratulations, your parents told me you were adopted. True story.
See, Oprah? You're not the only one who's every woman. (Not counting my penis) It's on!

Dec 23 2008Tina Fey & Alec Baldwin wish death upon each other
- Tina Fey & Alec Baldwin have started openly feuding on the set of 30 Rock. In related news, I just settled a bet with myself to see if I could post the most boring gossip item ever. I win! [Star]
- Heidi & Spencer's now admittedly fake courthouse wedding was an elaborate ploy to promote their upcoming real wedding. It's almost like somebody wrote these events down on pieces of paper and provided lines for those involved to say at the appropriate time. I think there's a word for that: Bullshit. [E! Online]
- Michael Jackson is not in dire need of a lung transplant. Unless it's at a children's hospital, then he'll take two. [Us]
- Kate Winslet's husband director Sam Mendes had a hard time watching filming her love scenes with Leonardo DiCaprio in Revolutionary Road. Apparently, the actor kept banging her head against the kitchen cabinets. So, wait there's something wrong with that? I should probably write this down. "Easy on cabinetry. Egg beater still kosher..." [Page Six]

Dec 16 2008Kate Winslet & Leonardo DiCaprio: OMG! It's just like that movie!
Hey, remember when Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio made a movie about the perils of boating? Well, they'd really appreciate it if you arbitrarily buy a ticket for their new film Revolutionary Road based solely on your sense of nostalgia. Also, Jack lives at the end of this one - and they have babies!
NOTE: Dear Dreamworks, that's how you market. Merry Christmas!

Dec 15 2008Sharon Osbourne attacks Charm School contestant (And other chicanery)
Nuggets of journalistic gold:
- Megan Hauserman (above) is pressing charges against Sharon Osbourne after being attacked during the Rock of Love: Charm School reunion last night. Somebody in VH1's marketing department just got a raise. [TMZ]
- Hilary Duff and Mandy Moore tried to duck out of a cancer benefit early by slipping out the back door of Kitson. Only thing is there is no back door which ended in FAIL and everybody laughing at them. I love happy endings. [Page Six]
- Kate Winslet regrets not being at the deathbed of her former lover who she "relucantly" let end the relationship once he got bone cancer. She now wishes she stuck it out because "he was gone very quickly." Hindsight's always 20/20 - particularly when you're the most horrible person in the world. [The Sun]
- Christina Hendricks, the insanely hot Joan from Mad Men, is engaged. First person to point out she was also on Firefly still lives with their mom - which technically was just me. Dammit. [People]
