Yummo!
Posted by: Trent on May 9, 2009| 29 Comments

A few week’s ago we learned that Taylor Kitsch, who can be seen as Gambit in X-Men Origins: Wolverine in theaters now, was featured on the cover and in the pages of the April issue of Men’s Health magazine. By some tragic happenstance, I totally missed posting Taylor‘s extensive (and very fleshy) photoshoot that was published in the mag … an error that I must now remedy. Here is a batch of hawt photos of Mr. Kitsch from this issue of Men’s Health:


MMM MMM MMM. Oh … and there is more where this came from. After the jump, check out another batch of photos that show Taylor Kitsch looking even hotter (if you can believe that) … More »

‘Entertainment Weekly’ Chooses Their American Idol

Undue influence?
Posted by: Trent on May 7, 2009| 77 Comments

Now that this season’s American Idol competition is down to the top 3 finalists (after last night’s elimination), the battle to become the new American Idol is getting down to the wire … tho, Entertainment Weekly magazine seems to think that the competition is already a done deal. They don’t come out and declare a winner, per se, but by singling out one of this season’s contestants and putting HIM on the cover of their magazine they seem to be making a clear statement. It’s as if EW is saying, Here is your new American Idol … Adam Lambert:


Yes, pretty much everyone on the planet seems to think that Adam Lambert has got the title in the bag but I don’t know that any publication has made this sort of determination so early before a winner is selected. EW even mentions that fact that Adam “might be gay” on their cover which, it seems to me, appears to be the footnote anytime anyone talks about Adam‘s possible win as the new American Idol. I don’t even watch the show but I’m aware of all the lurve that Adam is getting from everyone … it just seems kinda shitty to the other contestants that he is being singled out by a mag like EW before the competition is even over. In any event, I’m sure Mr. Lambert will benefit greatly from this bit of major press … not that he needs it. I understand that he is the most exciting, most charismatic AI contestant to come along in years. I guess we’ll see if his reputation can live up to the hype when the new American Idol is crowned in a couple of weeks. What do y’all think … do YOU think Adam Lambert has the competition in the bag?

Lindsay Lohan Channels Marilyn Monroe For A Spanish ‘Vogue’ Mag Photoshoot

Posted by: Trent on May 7, 2009| 38 Comments

Lindsay Lohan, who has been back to creepin’ in the wee hours with her ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson here in SoCal lately, was spotted in the hills of Hollywood all glammed up in the guise of her idol Marilyn Monroe for a photoshoot for Spanish Vogue magazine. Here are a few pics of the once-again platinum blonde Lindsay on the set of her Vogue shoot yesterday afternoon:


I love these pics!! I think she looks good with the flouncy blonde hair. I’m fairly certain that all this blondeness is fake hair but she wears it well (tho, I do prefer her with her natural red hair color). Lindsay owes much to the genius work by her hairdresser Andy Lecompte (pictured with her, who has also worked on pretty much everyone’s hair in Hollywood … he was styling Madonna‘s hair when I met her back in October 2005). I can’t wait to see what this photoshoot will look like when it gets published. If YOU can’t wait either, you can check out a preview of a few of the shots after the jump … More »

More Photos Of Megan Fox In The New Issue Of ‘Elle’ Magazine

B/W
Posted by: Trent on May 6, 2009| 15 Comments

Yesterday we got our first look at Megan Fox on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Elle magazine and today we get to enjoy a bit more from the mag. Elle.com has yet to publish their full interview with Megan Fox but, in addition to offering a few more photos, they have posted a few questions and answers from her coverstory interview. Here is one of the newly released photos and her interview answers:


On getting down to 99 pounds while shooting Jennifer’s Body: “I decided I would turn myself into a zombie. I got super, super skinny, stayed out of the sun for four months, and got to where I was losing my eyelashes and my eyebrows.”

On wanting to keep the status of her relationship private: “No, I do not want to comment on my relationship, period. It’s private. It doesn’t belong to the world. It’s mine. It’s Brian’s. It’s not for other people to judge and talk about and write about in In Touch Weekly.”

On the theory that her sudden success emasculated Green: “He doesn’t want to be my date…he’s a man. He has an ego. He went through this already, and he doesn’t want it back–It was horrible. So he has sympathy. He’s the one person that I know that if I’m struggling and everything’s getting crazy, I can call.”

On misbehaving while growing up: “I was grounded for all my childhood. Not most–all. I wasn’t doing anything particularly crazy. I just never appreciated authority figures preaching to me.”

Still, these interview answers do not provide too much insight into Miss Fox but I’m hoping we’ll get more meat when the full interview is released. After the jump, check out two more photos of Megan from her Elle magazine photoshoot … More »

Megan Fox Does ‘Elle’ Magazine

Sneak Peek
Posted by: Trent on May 5, 2009| 22 Comments

Transformers star Megan Fox, who is already appearing on the cover of the new issue of Esquire magazine, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Elle magazine. Altho Elle has yet to publish their full interview with Miss Fox online, they have provided us with a few photos of check out. Here is Megan‘s Elle mag coverphoto and a brief snippet from her coverstory interview:


On maturing early: “I’ve lived the life of a 35-year-old since I was 18. I’m so suspicious of boys-slash-men. I just don’t like them or trust them.”

On giving male writers an amped-up version of her past: “They’re boys; they’re easily toyed with. I tell stories and have them eating out of my hand.”

HMMM, she is really trying to push that vixen persona, ain’t she? But, you know, she’s young and vampy enough to pull it off … to a point. I’m curious to read more from this Elle interview. This snippet doesn’t really give us much so I’m hoping all the interesting bits are still to come. While we wait for her interview to hit the Internets, let’s check out a couple photos from her Elle magazine photospread … More »

Megan Fox Does ‘Esquire’ Magazine

Entrenched
Posted by: Trent on May 4, 2009| 24 Comments

Megan Fox, who will be starring alongside Shia LaBeouf in the Transformers sequel Rise of the Fallen this June and just started filming Jonah Hex for release next year, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Esquire magazine … here is her coverphoto:


Wowie wow! Megan looks great … but, curiously, don’t you think the trench coat/stockings ensemble looks an awful lot like the look that Angelina Jolie rocked in the spy romance flick Mr. & Mrs. Smith? The similarity can’t be a coincidence … Megan has been compared to a young Angelina many times before. After the jump, check out another alternate Esquire cover of Megan in another pose … More »

Jessica Simpson Does ‘Vanity Fair’ Magazine

"The Jessica Question"? Who's asking?
Posted by: Trent on May 4, 2009| 37 Comments

Jessica Simpson is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Vanity Fair magazine. Unfortch for her, the cover is prolly the fuglist one that the magazine has ever published … ever. The fugness has nothing really do with Jessica Simpson herself (tho, I should confess that I don’t really like the picture of her that was chosen for the cover) and everything to do with the horrible, jumbled use of texts and graphics. It looks like a total confusing mess. Here is Jessica on the cover of the June issue of Vanity Fair along with a portion of her coverstory interview (which was shared by her Dallas Cowboys beau Tony Romo):


Having professed her love for Tony Romo – whom she’s been dating since Thanksgiving 2007 – Jessica Simpson now has the Dallas Cowboys quarterback speaking up about her. “We’re very similar in that we both appreciate the hometown feel to a lot of things, and live our life like that,” Romo, described as “big, easy, handsome,” tells the June issue of Vanity Fair (on sale in New York and Los Angeles May 6 and nationally May 12). “She comes to a ton of games,” he says. “She’s a supportive girlfriend.” Not that this has been unanimously viewed as an advantage. In what at the time was perceived as a curse – and, as Vanity Fair’s Rich Cohen points out, in Texas where the Cowboys are a religion, Simpson’s dating Romo is like she’s dating the Pope – the couple vacationed in Mexico before the Cowboys lost to the New York Giants in the 2008 NFL playoffs. The Giants, meanwhile, went on to win the Super Bowl. According to Romo, 29, between games, “A lot of people head to Vegas, go back to their hometowns, colleges, and stuff. I was just like, ‘Let’s rent a house and sit around and watch football.’ It seemed like a good decision. But when you’re in the public eye, things can be perceived differently.” He adds, “You know, it’s very hard when you lose, because games are important, and so many people put so much time and effort in. It’s nice to have someone to come home to and try and make you feel better.” Simpson, 28, concurs. “That’s how the story goes,” she says. “Can’t help it. But we don’t let it affect our relationship. If we did, we wouldn’t be together, because it happened at the very beginning. Dating the Cowboys quarterback comes with hype, the fans, the bloggers, but I’ve never dated a guy that was more simple. I’m always there for him after a game, and he knows he has me to come home to.” Home is definitely an important refuge, because, as the profile also chronicles, life isn’t always easy for Simpson. Her “sudden weight gain,” though apparently now under control, left her looking “less than slender,” the magazine reports. Then there are her professional highs and lows, which include a not particularly enviable movie box-office record and a musical identity that is anything but constant, prompting Sony Music head Tommy Mottola to say, “I think she absolutely needs to re-invent herself.” At the same time, Mottola (who signed Simpson to her first label, in 1997), warns Simpson against flip-flopping between pop, Christian rock and country music – and thereby confusing her audience. In the face of such challenges, Simpson, underscoring her spiritual self, says, “We all go through trials, but not one thing has ever made me question God. I have a great relationship with God. I can talk to him, get mad at him, frustrated with him. But, ultimately, my faith is what defines me.” Besides, she adds, “There will always be another opportunity, another door to walk through.”

Ugh, the cover is really bad … but good for her for scoring the VF cover in the first place. She really doesn’t have anything of interest to talk about with the mag. I guess I’m not entirely sure why she got the cover in the first place … she’s got no new movies on the horizon (nor any old movies worth talking about) and no new album about to be released (she actually just got let go from her Country music label) … AND it’s not even football season to make Romo‘s participation in the interview relevant. The entire feel of her VF coverpiece is focused on her apparent shortcomings and setbacks. Is any of this really worthy of a magazine cover? Surely the magazine, at the very least, published a stunning photoshoot to offset the lackluster interview … right? After the jump, check out a few photos from Jessica Simpson‘s Vanity Fair photospread and judge for yourself … More »

Guess Which Hearttrob Started Out As A Blonde Towhead

Fancy a guess?
Posted by: Trent on April 30, 2009| 28 Comments

Life & Style magazine came upon a couple of really cute pics of one of today’s hottest heartthrob stars back when he was but a wee lad. In the May 1 issue of L&S mag (on newsstands now), we learn all about this adorable little boy before he grew up to blossom into the guy that every girl (and some guys) worship and adores:


I shant give any clues because all of them would make the guessing far too easy. But, if you look into this cute little boy’s eyes you might be able to recognize the man he grew up to be. After the jump, find out if you guessed correctly and read deets about this guy’s childhood from his dear aunt Nutley … More »

Heidi Montag-Pratt Headed For ‘Playboy’?

Is the new missus ready to pose nude?
Posted by: Trent on April 29, 2009| 43 Comments

Heidi Montag, who officially and legally became Mrs. Pratt this past Saturday afternoon when she finally married long-time beau Spencer Pratt, is reportedly considering posing for Playboy magazine … and, according to Life & Style magazine, her new hubby is encouraging her to do so. Is there nothing that this couple won’t do for a little publicity?


Besides being Mrs. Pratt, Heidi may have another new role in the works: Playboy Playmate! Life & Style can exclusively reveal that Heidi’s in negotiations to pose for magazine. “She wants to do it,” the insider confirms. “It’s just a matter of working out the details.” The insider tells Life & Style that Spencer is encouraging her to do it and is working on negotiating a $500,000 deal for his wife.

While I can’t say that I’m particularly surprised at this report, it doesn’t really jibe with Heidi‘s overt Christianity. Every day the girl tweets about Jesus and/or the Bible … I cannot imagine that posing nude in Playboy magazine is really sanctioned by the church. Then again, Speidi really know how to capitalize on an opportunity and if Heidi could score the cover of Playboy magazine and pocket a half million, I bet the couple would go for it. Would YOU be interested in seeing Heidi Montag-Pratt‘s nekkid bod in Playboy magazine? Do you think she’d really go for it?

‘People’ Magazine Selects The ‘100 Most Beautiful People’ Of 2009

The annual list
Posted by: Trent on April 29, 2009| 29 Comments

It is time again for People magazine to release their annual 100 Most Beautiful People issue and this year they have selected actress and breast cancer survivor Christina Applegate to grace the cover of the issue. Christina herself credits her man Martyn Lenoble for her beauty and talks about how his love for her is what makes her beauty shine. Here is the cover of the 100 Most Beautiful People issue of People magazine and a short piece on Christina‘s beauty:


She has an “angel” of a boyfriend, Dutch bass player Martyn Lenoble, “who loves me from head to toe.” She has a cozy Malibu beach house that she calls “the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.” And, after a very public battle with breast cancer that has given her a gratifying “feeling of purpose,” Christina Applegate has a new lease on life. “I used to be really shy but I started to come into my own in my late 20s and early 30s,” Applegate, 37, tells PEOPLE in the cover interview for the annual Most Beautiful issue – her first interview since her reconstructive breast surgery last November. “Now I’m not afraid to speak up in a room full of people and be a part of the conversation.” The Samantha Who? star says she’s finding balance and embracing her body after undergoing a double mastectomy in July. “You have to get through the physical transformations then buck up, go to work and try to be the normal, happy Christina for everyone around you,” she says. One source of strength has been Lenoble. “He’s been a friend for about 13 years,” Applegate says. “Our relationship gets stronger and stronger. I’m really lucky.” And, more importantly, he makes the actress feel “beautiful” about her new body. “I’m very grateful to Martyn for coming along at a time that he did because he’s been my rock through all of this,” Applegate says. “He gave me something to really want to live for and something to smile about.”

Considering the life-changing effect that enduring a double mastectomy has on a woman, I am very impressed with Christina’s attitude about her beauty (which is on full display in this issue of People magazine). I, for the life of me, cannot imagine what it must be like to survive a bout with cancer so my hat is off to her in that respect. I suppose congrats are in order for being named by People magazine as one of the 100 Most Beautiful People. But, there are 99 other folks who have been deemed beautiful by People — after the jump, check out a few of those pretty faces … More »
