Miranda Kerr Has a Bad Week; Amanda Bynes Arrested

Miranda Kerr raised some eyebrows after posing for sexy pic with a man who’s not Orlando Bloom, and then raised something else when she was photographed suffering a double(!) nip slip.

-Another day, another Amanda Bynes breakdown. She was kicked off a private plane when she didn’t have any I.D. and demanded the pilot “Google her” to verify her identity. This follows her claims that InTouch doctored photos of her “drug-fueled house party.” The proof? Her toes. [Update: She was arrested last night for throwing a bong out of a 36th floor window.  The potential upside is that her arrest included a psychiatric evaluation.]

Ellen‘s take-down of Abercrombie & Fitch is great.

-Even though everyone’s clamouring for an exclusive interview about her surgeries, Angelina Jolie isn’t talking.

Brad Pitt is talking enough for the both of them, though. He’s revealed that he thinks he suffers from a condition called prosopagnosia that makes it hard to remember people’s faces. Uh…sorry?

-Meanwhile, Brad continues to bust his butt to keep World War Z from being a bust, showing up at an early screening in New Jersey to hand out t-shirts.

-Brad’s BFF George Clooney was spotted enjoying dinner in London this week.

-Speaking of dinners in London, the latest issue of GOOP kills me. I love that Gwyneth Paltrow makes it seem like she kept having to leave the party to prepare dinner. They were at Mark’s Place, which is a renowned private supper club that has a Zagat rating of 21. Take a seat, Gwynnie — the chefs got this!

Julianne Moore talks about all the crap interview questions actresses are asked that actors aren’t.

-Along those lines, Sony studio chief Amy Pascal says in a candid interview that the Hollywood system’s geared for women directors to fail.

Lady Gaga is making her big screen debut in Machete Kills. Watch the (very blurry) trailer.

Janet Jackson can afford a whole lotta escapades now — she just joined the ranks of Hollywood’s billionaires’ club.

-Some dude pretended to be Psy at Cannes and everyone fell for it, proving my theory that if you walk around with bodyguards you can get into anywhere.

-Meanwhile, Nicole Kidman continues to kill it in Cannes. I like this look, too (which is actually the dress Anne Hathaway was planning to wear to the Oscars). She loses me a bit with these pants though.

Andrew Garfield dressed up as Spider-Man to play basketball with some New York City kids.

-I don’t usually watch Nashville but maybe I would if the drama were as exciting onscreen as it is off. There’s lots of talk that the next season will be filmed in L.A. to appease Connie Britton, and that’s not making the locals happy. This comes on the heels of reports there’s tension between the ABC and Lionsgate,  not to mention the dishy editorial a producer’s wife wrote after the show didn’t renew his contract.

-I really hope someone makes a “Morgan Freeman Is Sleepy” meme out of this.

-The best thing about Arrested Development’s imminent arrival (besides the fact that we get new episodes in a few days)? We’re also swimming in cast interviews. Here’s one with Jason Bateman and David Cross, and another with too-close cousins Michael Cera and Alia Shawkat.

-Meanwhile, someone needs to make these Arrested Development-themed emojis downloadable STAT!

-People.com just posted the world’s most terrifying GIF of Katie Holmes.

-Apparently, Beyonce ordered a nicoise salad, so everyone has backed off the pregnancy speculation because tuna is bad for the baby basket or something.

-Wait, were Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev engaged?

Amanda Seyfried says she misses her boobs, which she lost after she was pressured to lose weight for Hollywood.

Katy Perry might have a vitamin problem.

-I had no idea Ron Livingston and Rosemarie Dewitt were even together, let alone that they were expecting. In any case, mazel!

-If you’re interviewing Will Ferrell, it’s a good idea to turn off your phone. Otherwise, your mom might call and he’ll pick it up.

Jonah Hill was spotted smooching his ex-girlfriend. Does that mean he’s done bro-ing around with Leonardo DiCaprio?

-Speaking of Leo, this photo of him partying in Cannes says it all, doesn’t it?

-I’m glad that Tatiana Maslany got a Critic’s Choice nomination. Orphan Black isn’t perfect, but she’s astounding in it. (Speaking of Orphan Black, the pilot is available for free on iTunes right now.)

Jennifer Aniston shows a lot of skin in the new We’re The Millers trailer. (The film doesn’t look great, but Ken Marino and Nick Offerman are both in it so I’ll give it a chance.) Also, did anyone read her interview in EW a couple of weeks ago where she completely trashed her character’s soccer mom wardrobe? Doesn’t she know that soccer moms are her target demo these days?

-I love this fake horror movie trailer starring Anna Camp. FOMO is scary.

-The trailer for Don Jon, written and directed by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, has arrived. Early screenings are earning raves – and it’s easy to see why.

Kristen Stewart (photographed Monday night looking happy) is reportedly hanging out with Taylor Swift in the wake of the Robsten breakup. Well, if anyone can guide someone through the pain of a broken heart, it’s good ol’ Swifty.

-There’s also a shady report from The Sun about RPattz leaving her because he found a text from Rupert Sanders on her phone the morning of his birthday.

-Meanwhile, here’s a good analysis from Lainey on how both Pattinson and Stewart‘s camps are playing it in the press.

Ellen staged a mini-Friends reunion with Jennifer Aniston, Matthew Perry and Courteney Cox, proving once and for all that the world doesn’t need a real one. Also, Jen’s is the only face that doesn’t look completely jacked!

Justin Bieber is trying to get everyone who comes to his parties to sign waivers because nothing says rock ‘n roll like legal documents.

-Also, Justin is the 7th most popular woman on the internet, according to Fox News.

Kate Middleton gifted us with another belly bump sighting today.

Danny McBride and Maya Rudolph teamed up for a GQ photo shoot entitled “Awkward Family Photos” — and it’s awesome.

-The late night talk shows are having a field day with our buffoon of a mayor. Here’s Jon Stewart’s take on Rob Ford, and here’s Jimmy Kimmel’s. This pre-scandal spoof is still my fave, though.

Leonardo DiCaprio got repeatedly shot down by a 20-year-old model, who is now my personal hero.

Ryan Gosling‘s new movie Only God Forgives just joined the ranks of films to be loudly booed at Cannes. I’ve never seen a crankier audience than at that festival (while I’ve never seen a more kiss-assy audience than at TIFF).

January Jones still has no interest in giving up the name of her baby daddy, thankyouverymuch.

Emma Roberts just joined the cast of American Horror Story.

-In other odd casting news, Rumer Willis is set to become a Pretty Little Liar.

-Rumer’s mother Demi is dating a guy who had a pearl inserted into his dick because apparently that’s something people do?

Here’s a photo from Gwyneth Paltrow‘s new Hugo Boss ad campaign, which reportedly netted her a cool $2 million.

-Meanwhile, I’m really digging the leather belt Gwyneth wore with her Prabal Gurung dress, but I seem to be in the minority.

-Speaking of fashion, I want to marry Marion Cotillard’s Dior dress!

-Also at Cannes, Bai Ling is back!

-A few days ago I was eating oysters at 1am on a Sunday night in a crowded restaurant and giving the exact same speech about NYC that Aziz Ansari gave last night on Fallon.

-A new Anchorman 2 teaser has landed.

Eva Longoria just tweeted that she’s completed her master’s degree. Huh?

-How freakin’ adorable are Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield?

-Meanwhile, Emma’s opening up about supporting her mom through a cancer ordeal.

-I love that Michelle Rodriguez says that she basically just wrote her own Fast & Furious character as she was filming the series because there wasn’t much on the page.

-Sweet! The next season of Luther is landing this summer. Between this and Pacific Rim, it’s shaping up to be a Idris Elba-heavy season.

-This is cool: NPR has created an app for watching Arrested Development.

-Meanwhile, the creator really doesn’t want everyone to binge-watch all the new episodes in one weekend, but we’re all going to ignore that advice, right?

-I like Game of Thrones, but I LOVE FunnyorDie’s Gay of Thrones recaps.

-I really did try to get through Rolling Stone‘s entire interview with Jared Leto. It’s just so eye-rolly.

-Speaking of eye-rolly, here’s video of Ke$ha peeing into a bottle and then drinking it. I have never, ever in my life sided with the stupid Parent’s TV Council, but they might have a point with this one.

Bill Murray is making kids cry — and being hilarious about it.

-Comedians Marc Maron and Michael Ian Black got into a pretty epic catfight on Twitter this week.

-Watch Girls Gone Wild mogul Joe Francis (who was found guilty of falsely imprisoning three women in his Bel-Air home) rant about how his jury “should be euthanized.” Stay classy, kid.

-One of the jurors has already responded with confirmation that he is not, in fact, “retarded.”

-I love that Behind the Candelabra is getting rave reviews. Currently 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. I think there should be viewing parties for this thing on Sunday night.

-The new trailer for The World’s End (which is still different from This Is The End — one of those movies is going to get lost this summer) is fantastic. Robots? Robots!

-The Stuck in Love trailer looks super charming. Jennifer Connelly and Lily Collins were made to play mother and daughter (or at least their eyebrows were).

-Speaking of trailers, here’s the new one for Blood Ties, starring Clive Owen, Marion Cotillard and Mila Kunis.

Brad Pitt Greases Up the Cover of Esquire

brad-pitt-esquire-cover

-It’s been a while since Brad Pitt had to strain himself to promote one of his movies, but he’s breaking out in a sweat over World War Z. In a new interview with Esquire, he talks about his “conscious choice” to stop being a pothead, and gushes about his happy family life with Angelina JolieThat cover isn’t going to sell any movie tickets though. Yuck.

-I went a way for a few days and missed the entire Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson implosion! Of course, all the blame is landing on her. She was too “moody” for him (because lord knows we just can’t let a couple break up without slut-shaming the girl or blaming it on her ovaries or some bullshit).

-Meanwhile, Rob is reportedly “in a really good mood” following the split.

-Is it weird that I felt really bad when Justin Bieber got booed at the Billboard Awards? Poor little dude looked like he was about to cry.

-Also, I don’t know what’s going on with him and Selena, but Taylor Swift was throwing her some seriously supportive BFF looks during one of his acceptance speeches.

-Wait, so is Beyonce pregnant or not? When I was away I thought E! confirmed it, but now Jay-Z‘s camp is denying it.

-Meanwhile, according to Gawker the leaked Beyoncé song sounds the same even when played in four windows simultaneously because we have reached peak Beyoncé levels!

-Speaking of being away, I’m catching up on my TV and just watched Ben Affleck‘s SNL monologue. Holy crap, Jennifer Garner really is Tracy Flick, isn’t she?!

This is really making me want to watch Amy Schumer‘s new sketch show.

Paul Wesley just tweeted “On a romantic date with Ben Mckenzie appropriately seeing the new HBO Liberace film” along with a photo of the two of them, and then the internet immediately drowned in slash fic.

Amy Poehler predicts strangers’ futures in this video, which I haven’t watch yet ’cause it’s really long but I’m predicting it will be 100% adorable. (I also love and adore that she’s confident enough to wear a hoodie with no makeup and unwashed hair on TV.)

-Whoa. The kid who played Julie on Friday Night Lights has grown into a hottie.

-I have a love/hate relationship with Zach Galifianakis, but this is putting me firmly back in the love camp: his date to The Hangover 3 premiere was an 87-year-old woman named Mimi Haist. He made friends with her before he hit it big, and when he found out she’d become homeless a few years later he set her up with a place to live and now invites her to Hollywood events. These pictures of her getting ready kill me.

-Someone hide Mike Tyson‘s tiger: Justin Bartha just got engaged.

John (“Captain Jack”) Barrowman will host a celebrity karaoke show for ABC called Sing Your Face Off. Does this mean his Arrow character is really dead?

Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio will be replacing Britney Spears and L.A. Reid as judges on the X Factor, which means Fox has four months to try to make the world learn who Paulina Rubio is.

-Your opinion of the new She & Him video will largely revolve around how much you can tolerate Zooey Deschanel‘s adorableness.

-The Anchorman 2 cameos just keep coming. Now Drake is reportedly in it.

-Man, what is Dior thinking with the stuff they’re putting Jennifer Lawrence in at Cannes? Her wardrobe there is just an endless parade of the same boring dress.

-Weird question, but why is Alec Baldwin‘s wife part of his movie photocall in Cannes?

-I’m not going to lie, I am mesmerized by Blake Lively’s cooking video.

-A new trailer for The Wolverine has landed, but it looks like it’s mostly comprised of footage we’ve already seen.

Helen Mirren, in full regalia and character, granted a terminally ill boy’s wish to meet the Queen because she’s awesome.

This article about what happens when you land an interview with Prince made me laugh — and also made me very jealous.

Justin Timberlake said his music career hangs over him “like a cloud.” ‘Cause that’s just what we want to hear from a guy who’s album recently sold nearly 1 million copies in one week. Charming.

Jon Hamm‘s girlfriend Jennifer Westfeldt is going to guest-star on Girls next season, which I think is actually a great move for her. She strikes me as more of a TV person than a movie person.

ABC has finally put the unaired episodes of Don’t Trust the B up online — but of course they’re geo-blocked for Canadians because the internet hates us.

-If you have 7 minutes and 41 seconds to kill, The Weeknd just posted the first song off his upcoming album.

-The Buffy series finale aired 10 years ago this week which makes me feel really old, but also really grateful that the most popular vampire story of my youth revolved around a kickass girl and not this.

-I cannot wait until Before Midnight! Vulture’s guide to all of Celine and Jesse’s conversations is making it worse.

Lauren Graham talking about former Gilmore Girls costar Jared Padalecki’s arms cracked me up.

Claire Danes gets her cry-face on in the new As Cool As I Am trailer.
