No need for subtitles
Check Out The New Trailer For ‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ . . . En Anglais

Last week we got a sneak preview of the newest movie trailer for The Twilight Saga: New Moon which was dubbed in French but hit the Internets days before the English version was set to debut in theaters last Friday. That video, which has since been removed by Summit Entertainment, gave us our first look at the newest footage made available from the film … with a bunch of really fun subtitles. The English version of the trailer was shown in theaters this past weekend and has officially been released online for our viewing pleasure:

‘The Twilight Saga: New Moon’ star Taylor Lautner introduces us to his character Jacob Black. In the second installment of Stephenie Meyer’s phenomenally successful TWILIGHT series, the romance between mortal and vampire soars to a new level as BELLA SWAN (Kristen Stewart) delves deeper into the mysteries of the supernatural world she yearns to become part of—only to find herself in greater peril than ever before. Following Bella’s ill-fated 18th birthday party, EDWARD CULLEN (Robert Pattinson) and his family abandon the town of Forks, Washington, in an effort to protect her from the dangers inherent in their world. As the heartbroken Bella sleepwalks through her senior year of high school, numb and alone, she discovers Edward’s image comes to her whenever she puts herself in jeopardy. Her desire to be with him at any cost leads her to take greater and greater risks. With the help of her childhood friend JACOB BLACK (Taylor Lautner), Bella refurbishes an old motorbike to carry her on her adventures. Bella’s frozen heart is gradually thawed by her budding relationship with Jacob, a member of the mysterious Quileute tribe, who has a supernatural secret of his own. When a chance encounter brings Bella face to face with a former nemesis, only the intervention of a pack of supernaturally large wolves saves her from a grisly fate, and the encounter makes it frighteningly clear that Bella is still in grave danger. In a race against the clock, Bella learns the secret of the Quileutes and Edward’s true motivation for leaving her. She also faces the prospect of a potentially deadly reunion with her beloved that is a far cry from the one she’d hoped for.

I’m pretty certain that A.) all of the rabid Twilighters watched this trailer multiple times when it was leaked to the Internets last week in French and B.) already prolly saw the trailer in theaters this weekend but, just in case, you can watch the trailer in full, in English right here after the jump …

Tho Dane's lawyer calls it "a naked tape, not a sex tape"
Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart & Some Chick In A Sex Tape Scandal

Yesterday an explicit “sex tape” made its way to the Internets which features married couple Eric Dane and Rebecca Gayheart gettin’ nekkid with former beauty queen nobody Kari Ann Peniche and quickly made the rounds. The video debuted on Gawker but it was censored so as not to show Dane‘s McSteamy peeny … but the NSFW site Fleshbot posted the uncensored video today which shows Dane‘s wares in all its blurry-can’t-really-make-it-out-clearly-but-we’ll-take-what-we-can-get glory. Here are a few screencaps:

If there is one thing in life that we hold as a certainty, it’s this: pretty much everyone who’s ever owned a digital camera (or webcam) has, at one point or another, taken naked pictures or video of themselves. The latest edition in our cavalcade of celebrity sex tapes: Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart, and Kari Ann Peniche (known for “Grey’s Anatomy,” Noxema commercials, and beauty pageants/sex work respectively) all got together one day, did some drugs, and got naked. And taped themselves. Is it shocking? Not really: in fact, it’s rather tame (perhaps even more boring than “Kim Kardashian, Superstar”!). Will we ever get to a point where we can just admit that this is normal? That it’s not shocking to learn that a celebrity made a sex tape…because we’ve all made a sex tape? Probably not: but we’ll keep hope alive. When we’re not busy trying to find deep meaning in furiously masturbating to Eric, Rebecca, and Kari’s drugged up naked ramblings.

According to Dane‘s lawyer, who is threatening to suesomeone … the video footage doesn’t really constitute a “sex tape” per se as no one is actually engaged in any sex acts, on that account he may be right. But a nekkid video is a nekkid video, no matter how you try to explain it away:

It didn’t take long — TMZ has learned there’s already a legal war raging over the Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart naked threesome tape. Legal pit bull Marty Singer, who reps Dane and Gayheart, tells us he will sue anyone who publishes the video, which he calls “a private, confidential tape.” Singer says he just spoke with third wheel Kari Ann Peniche and asked how the tape got leaked. Her response: “I have no idea. I had nothing to do with it.” As for reports there’s a full-blown, uncensored sex version of the tape, Singer said, “From what I’ve seen it’s a naked tape, not a sex tape.” Singer added, “At most it’s 3 people maybe wanting to have sex.” And that’s why we love Marty Singer.

So … enough talk, right? In case you have yet to see the video/want to see the video you can head over to Gawker to watch the censored version HERE or you can head over to the extremely NSFW site Fleshbot to watch the uncensored version HERE. Enjoy!! And then lemme know what you think. Personally, it’s tame/lame … but nekkid is nekkid so … Win!

Gettin' wet & wild in Portofino, Italy
Madonna Takes The Plunge With Jesus Luz

Birthday celebrations for Madonna‘s 51st continued in Portofino, Italy yesterday as she and her young lover Jesus Luz frolicked and played off the Italian coast. As you may recall, yesterday we saw photos of Madonna & Child with her newest children Chifundo Mercy James and David Banda heading out for a birthday yacht ride … today we get to see that Maddy wanted to celebrate her birthday outside the boat as well:

Most of us would have been happy with a cake and the good wishes of a few friends and family. But for her 51st birthday, Madonna opted for an altogether more exciting affair – and brought her 22-year-old lover, two adopted children and daughter along for the ride. The celebrations began on Sunday night when the singer hosted a sumptuous dinner party in the Italian resort of Portofino, where she is staying with her boyfriend Jesus Luz, her adopted children David Banda and Mercy James, and her daughter Lourdes. For the party she hired an entire floor of the exclusive Splendido Hotel where suites cost as much as £4,500 a night. She was joined by around 30 guests, including Italian fashion designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana. They presented her with a huge cake with sparklers on top and a specially-designed lace dress. Throughout the meal, Madonna was seen kissing Jesus, whom she met in December last year shortly after splitting from Guy Ritchie. He seems to have taken on the role of father figure to David, three, and Mercy, four, judging by the way he was carrying and playing with them during the day. Yesterday, Madonna was taken by private boat along with her two adopted children and Jesus to the home of the two designers, where she continued her celebrations. Dressed in a personalised basketball kit, she was seen taking an acrobatic leap into the sea as the rest of the party looked on.

As you can see, her son Rocco John is in the background of the first photo (of Madonna diving into the water) proving that he is with his mother on this Italian getaway (he and Lourdes Maria were not featured in any of the photos posted yesterday and it was assumed by some that — because of all the kids Madonna has these days — he was lost at baggage claim). You know, for a 51 year old broad Madonna is still a pretty spry bird (who seems to have an affinity for granny-lookin’ parasols). Clearly, she works it out every night on the performance stage but it’s quite another thing to be so physically engaging out in public. She really looks like she is making the most of her birthday celebrations … live it up, girl!!

3-peat
Britney Spears Takes The Boys For A Third Day At The Pool

On Sunday we saw a bunch of amazing photos of our dear Britney Spears rockin’ a hot pink bikini poolside on Saturday afternoon at The Ritz Carleton Hotel in Marina Del Rey, CA and then yesterday we saw that she was joined by her sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James, for a second day of pool fun on Sunday. It turns out that Brit Brit and the boys have made the Ritz their temporary home because she and the boys spent part of their Monday there as well … that must be, like, the best pool ever or something:

Man, her boys are so cute. I love all the bonding time that Britney ensures that she gets to spend with her young sons. While I’m pretty sure that Brit will be taking the boys with her on tour (which starts up again in Hamilton, Ontario this Thursday night), it seems evident that she wants to spend as much downtime with her boys as possible before they all have to get thrown into the whirlwind of touring again. Love these photos! Doesn’t she have the cutest little family?
