Hot Shot: Hugh Jackman Carries His French Bulldog In The Rain
Here’s some attractiveness math for you: if a man’s with a dog, he is hotness increases 50%. If that dog is a French bulldog, add another 20%. And if said man is carrying said French bulldog in his arms, go ahead and throw in another 15%. More »
Who Should Join Anne Hathaway in the Cast of Les Miserables?
You may or may not be aware of this, but a movie version of the international musical theatre sensation Les Miserables is currently in the works. This isn’t the first time in recent memory someone has tried to put Victor Hugo’s novel on the screen, but it IS the first time that it’s been done in musical form. And it’s racking up a pretty good cast, too: Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe signed on as escaped con Jean Valjean and Inspector Javert respectively a while ago, and just this week, Anne Hathaway joined the team as Fantine, the ill-fated singer of “I Dreamed a Dream.” So that got us thinking: Who ELSE might shine in this star-studded cast? We have no idea if any of these actors can sing, but hey, that’s never stopped anyone in the past (Sweeney Todd, much?). Here are our picks for the cast of the new Les Mis: More »

Hugh Jackman Is the Master of the Surprise Cameo
When you think of Hugh Jackman, it’s usually in a big way: He’s a presence on the silver screen, playing growly fighters like Wolverine and dreamy rebels like in Australia. And even though he’s starring in Real Steel this fall, what’s most caught our attention are the brief, unexpected cameos he’s made in two recent movies. More »
‘Real Steel’ Adding a Kid Suddenly Made the Movie a Lot Less Sexy
Hugh Jackman in Real Steel is back to the sharp-eyed, wounded, rough-around-the-edges sexiness we haven’t seen in a long time — at least, not without some adamantium claws attached. His character Charlie Kenton is a man forced into retirement, who still retains that passion for the craft even as he trains his robot replacements. He’ll probably strut around the training ring, muscles glistening, and throw some lucky girl up against the wall and…
Wait — there’s a kid in this movie? A son he abandoned for the sport, who now is the only one who can help him to regain his former glory by building a champion fighter? OK, I’m now 50% less interested. More »
Tony Awards: Neil Patrick Harris and Hugh Jackman Duke It Out
Midway through the awards, a glorious thing happened: A wild Hugh Jackman appeared. And that wild Hugh Jackman proceeded to challenge Neil Patrick Harris to a duel of epic proportions. Epic, musical proportions. And this, my friends, is why the Tonys are the best awards show out of all of them. Witness the amazingness here! More »
Gallery: The Best Shots of Actors Posing with Their Action Figures
As creator Guil Ty writes in the introduction to the new Tumblr Actors with Action Figures, celebrities face the weird future of not only having their likenesses blown up to forty feet on a movie screen, but also shrunk down to (hopefully) accurate action figures if they play superheroes, animated characters, or action stars. I’ve chosen the cutest shots of celebs interacting with their tiny doppelgangers, though I realize at least half are cute guys. So, it’s like our “Hot Guys Holding Baby Animals” office calendar, but for the geek set, and with a few ladies and older guys thrown in. More »
“Food Plate” Replaces Food Pyramid; Blake Lively and Hugh Jackman Talk Not Getting Enough Food
As part of her healthier eating initiative, Michelle Obama unveiled the new nutritional design that’s replaced the FDA food pyramid: MyPlate, a circular dish split into four portions for fruits, vegetables, grains, and protein, with a bowl-like dairy portion on the side. Interestingly, Obama is not the only celebrity chattering about food today. More »
‘Real Steel’ Looks Like ‘BattleBots’ On Steroids
Earlier this week, trailers started popping up for an upcoming sci-fi movie called Real Steel. Normally, I would say all that you need to know about this movie is that it involves Hugh Jackman, boxing, and robots, and that this can’t possibly be a bad thing; but I’m intrigued enough by the premise to want to look at it a little more closely. It’s been a while since we’ve had a good robot movie (Michael Bay’s Transformers movies don’t count), so this one could be not only entertaining, but actually and justifiably good. But one question keeps popping back into my mind: Does this remind anyone else of a high-drama version of BattleBots? More »
Video Gallery: Neil Patrick Harris and Other Awesome Hosts of the Tony Awards
Hey everyone, remember that rumor floating around that Neil Patrick Harris was going to host this year’s Tony Awards? Well, it’s not a rumor anymore! On Tuesday, it was announced that Harris will, in fact, emcee the 2011 ceremony. In the press release, Harris notes that he’s both “honored” and “stoked” to have been asked to host. “It should be a great show,” he says. “We’ve got a fantastic mix of live performances, a few secret surprises, and since they’re closed for retooling, we’re using all the rigging equipment from Spider-Man. What could possibly go wrong?” Ceremony producers Ricky Kirshner and Glenn Weiss go on to say that they’re thrilled to have him, and that they’re “even happier he fits in the Spider-Man rigging.” More »
17 Celebs Who Took the Broadway Stage
Ah, the phenomenon of celebrities on Broadway: Sometimes it’s a rip-roaring success, and sometimes it’s, well… not. Kathleen Turner, for instance, is finding herself in a bit of a jam as her new play High prepares to bring down its curtain after only a a week’s worth of performances. However, Turner has had success on Broadway in the past, as evinced by the 2004 revival of Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? Turner isn’t the only celebrity to have taken a turn on Broadway; American Idol contestants aside, there are plenty of famous people who have tried their hand at the art of the theatre, to varying degrees of success. Here are 17 celebs who took the Broadway stage: More »

Oprah Winfrey‘s been in Australia for the past week to tape her show from down under, and Hugh celebrated the occasion with a wacky stunt.

The Best Of … Celebrities’ Foreign Commercials
At some point in your life, you’re going to have to do something pretty humiliating to make that little extra scratch to pay off your debts, and that’s true whether you are a bookie, prostitute, or even a famous person. But only those three professions, actually. Luckily for celebrities though, they can make their money by shilling for some giant company in not-America, and then pray that no one sees them, ever. Then YouTube came along and blew everyone’s spot…. More »
No, Ryan Seacrest Is Not Ruining ‘American Idol’
When a beloved reality series jumps the proverbial shark, we need someone to blame — and in the case of American Idol, that someone has become Ryan Seacrest, the show’s longtime host and traffic cop.
Seacrest is known — and routinely mocked — for his metrosexual appearance, uber-Hollywood tan and cheesetastic delivery, the coiner of catchphrases such as, “Seacrest out!” and “THIS. IS. AMERICAN IDOL.” But he’s an unflappable showman and tireless workhorse, making a gig as ringmaster on the biggest… More »
