An important announcement ...
Conan O’Brien Reveals The Name Of His New Late Night Talk Show

Coco himself has filmed a video announcement wherein he makes the official show title announcement. Conan‘s new show title is only one word long … can you guess what it is? After the jump, find out if you are correct …

Rihanna Surfaces On The Set Of ‘Battleship’

Popstar Rihanna, who we learned yesterday now has her own wax statue tribute on display at Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum in Washington DC, has made her way to Hawaii this week. No, she’s not there to hang out with living legend Britney Spears and her beau Jason Trawick who are also on the islandsRi Ri is actually in HI to film her first scenes for the new film Battleship (which is based on the classic board game Battleship by Milton Bradley). Here is our first look at Rihanna on set:

You may recall that we learned in July that Rihanna would be making her feature film debut in Battleship and now we know that she’s already begun work on the film. To be honest, I’m having a hard time trying to wrap my head around the notion of a major motion picture based on a classic board game … but, then again, I never thought that Pirates of the Caribbean, a movie based solely on a ride at Disneyland, would be successful. I’m certain the classic catchphrase, You sunk my Battleship!, will be uttered in the film … let’s just hope it won’t be uttered at Rihanna for ruining the movie ;)

What do y’all think … does a movie based on a board game sound like a winner to you? Do you think this is a good first movie for Rihanna to make her acting debut?

Britney Spears & Jason Trawick Are ‘Back’ In Action

Lovebirds Britney Spears and Jason Trawick are STILL in Hawaii this week and it doesn’t look like they will be leaving the island any time soon … well, not that we can tell at least. The couple have now been on the island of Maui, HI for over a week now but they appear to still be having the time of their lives together. Britwick went for a private cruise over the weekend and then were spotted back on the grounds of their resort hotel:

It’s unclear if Britney did any diving while on her cruise with Jason but, as you can see, she was spotted wearing a Diver Down bikini for the excursion. Jason wrapped his bum in another pair of fugly True Religion board shorts (which don’t really look good on anyone, TBH). Are Britwick nearing the end of their Hawaiian adventure or have they only just begun? Stay tuned …

"It doesn’t go down like you think it does"
Kristen Bell Dishes On Her Cameo In ‘Scream 4’

Last week we learned that actresses Kristen Bell and Anna Paquin will both be appearing in the upcoming sequel film Scream 4, which is still in filming production in Michigan, and today we get to hear from Kristen herself about the fate of her character in the film. Kristen doesn’t give away too much about what happens in Scream 4 but based on her comments in this Parade interview, I think we can safely assume that she will portray one of the film franchises skewered victims:

On her hush-hush cameo in the upcoming Scream 4.
“I am in the movie, I will say that. I don’t know if I can say much more than that but it’s a really, really fun movie and everyone loves it as much as they did the first one.”

Will her character suffer a fate like Drew Barrymore’s in the first flick?
“It doesn’t go down like you think it does. But it was fun doing it, that’s what I’ll say. I loved being a part of the movie.”

HMMMM … well, we do know for sure that Kristen‘s character will die in the film … but how. Many people are guessing that she will be the first victim to go but I’m not so sure. My guess is that Anna Paquin‘s character will be the opening death scene … or maybe it will be both of them at the same time? Scream 4 will not hit movie theaters until next year so speculating right now is a bit pointless. But I’m excited, y’all. I cannot wait to see this film!
