Jonah Hill Doesn’t Want to Follow In The Funny Fat Man Mold
Jonah Hill is known for playing the smartass, chubby sidekick in comedies like Superbad and Knocked Up. But the 28-year-old actor is now trying to shed his funny fat man image. With the help of a nutritionist, Hill recently lost a significant amount of weight. It’s a move he says he made for both his health and his career.
“I just had a moment in my life where I said I want to become a man, and that means with my career, that means with my life, that means with my health,” Hill explained to Bill Weir in a “Nightline” interview. More »
Jonah Hill’s Oscar Nomination Is Great News — Even Though He’ll Probably Lose
Jonah Hill was great in the Brad Pitt baseball biopic MoneyBall. And this morning the Academy recognized that, with an Oscar nomination for the 28 year old actor. This is great news.

Brad Pitt Comforts A Suicidal Fan At Moneyball Screening

Video Gallery: The Funniest Celebrity ‘Don’t Talk’ PSAs from the Alamo Drafthouse Theater
Now we get why Alamo Drafthouse is consistently voted the beast theater in the country. They’re the ones behind the viral video of an angry customer’s bleep-filled voicemail, which they used in their famous “Don’t Talk” campaign of PSAs that run before new movies. Today we stumbled upon their official YouTube channel, which collects all of their “Don’t Talk” PSAs — including the hilarious ones with celebrities like Jason Momoa and Dave Franco. Not all of them succeed — therein lies the fun — but you have to hand it to the theater and the stars for turning out such wacky videos. More »

The ESPY Awards (aka the Excellence In Sports Performance Yearly awards) are presented every year by ESPN.

Was Jezebel’s Knee-Jerk Reaction To Blisstree’s Overweight Celebrity List Uncalled For?
Our sister site Blisstree.com this week wrote a piece entitled “10 Overweight Celebrities We Don’t Want to Look Like.” While the title may have been a little flippant, we wonder if Jezebel’s Sadie Stein read beyond it as the message of Blisstree’s article was far from Mean Girls. Instead Blisstree (which is a health and nutrition site) was pointing out the myriad health problems that come with being obese, including, you know, dying. And its way more common in America than the size-0 celebrities that gossip blogs mock and point to as poor role models. More »

How Jonah Hill Got The Nasty Scar On His Right Arm
50 cent got his scars from bullet wounds. Tina Fey got her scar at 5 years old when a stranger cut her face with a razorblade. Jonah Hill got his at 15 in a car accident that left a deep permanent mark on his right arm.

‘The Hard Times Of R.J. Berger’ Is Hard To Watch
We were excited about the prospect of MTV’s The Hard Times of R.J. Berger, MTV’s supposed “HBO’s Hung meets high school.” Unfortunately, the well-endowed comedy fell short (aside from maybe one area).
First of all, we’ve seen most, if not all of this, before. The skinny, nerdy R.J. (Paul Iacono) is a typical high school misfit with a passion for anime, dragons and all things generally uncool. Think Napoleon Dynamite meets Michael Cera meets McLovin. R.J’s bromance with his chubby best… More »
