Paul McCartney Convince Every Hollywood Star To Be In His Video

Paul McCartney recruited a bunch of celebrities for his new music video, including Johnny Depp, Jude Law, Tom Ford, Sienna Miller, Tracey Ullman, Sean Penn and Chris Pine. This just confirms my belief that I really want to go dancing with Meryl Streep.

Mary McCormack was reportedly “blindsided” by TMZ’s photos of her husband kissing Katharine McPhee. That might just be the suckiest ever way to find out already sucky news. She’s reportedly kicked him out of the house.

-Meanwhile, sources say McPhee is “embarrassed” by the photos. Ya think?

-I know it’s lame to be shocked by anything Lady Gaga wears at this point, but WTF?

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are reportedly going to sue the friend who posted their proposal video online. The guy was the co-founder of YouTube — what exactly did they expect?

-God bless the New York Post and Jezebel for calling out Kate Bosworth as a mocktress. There’s zero reason for anyone to be talking about her any more, let alone putting her on magazine covers.

Drake’s birthday cake features both the CN Tower and Shoppers Drug Mart, which means it’s pretty much exactly as you pictured it.

-In honour of Movember, Nick Offerman is walking us through the history of the ‘stache.

-I’m a big fan of Jamie Dornan’s casting in Fifty Shades of Grey, because he did such a good job playing a psycho who has serious issues with powerful women in The Fall — and let’s face it, that’s Christian Grey to a T.

-Also, Scott Eastwood still seems to think he has a shot at the role. Aw, sweetie.

George Clooney‘s The Monuments Men has officially been delayed to Feb. 7, making it the first time in history I’m actually looking forward to a February movie.

Arcade Fire is streaming their new Reflecktor album on YouTube. Is it weird that I don’t love it?

-I’m not sure I’m feeling Kate Middleton‘s latest Jenny Packham gown.
