James Van Der Beek ran into Joshua Jackson this weekend and posted the cutest, most squee-inducing photo of all time.

-There was also a 10 Things I Hate About You cast reunion!

Jaden Smith tells NYT Magazine, “I have a goal to be just the most craziest person of all time.”  According to his Twitter feed, he’s halfway there. (Also, do yourself a favour and read his entire interview with sister Willow. It’s NUTS. When asked about her music, 12-year-old Willow says, “…the feeling of being like, this is a fragment of a holographic reality that a higher consciousness made.” Like, for reals. Are these kids being raised by True Detective’s Rust Cohle?!)

Solange Knowles’s wedding style is insanely great. PantsA cape! A reception outfit that looks like a bathrobe!

-Meanwhile, her wedding dance routine with her son to “No Flex Zone” is just the cutest!

-On the other side of the glamour spectrum, Kourtney Kardashian had a baby shower at IHOP.

-A new promo for Peter Pan Live! seems to indicate that Allison Williams will be attempting a British accent in it. Gulp.

Amanda Bynes and Paris Hilton reportedly fought in an LA nightclub. Did we just time-warp back to 2004?

-Meanwhile, Amanda Bynes has released a statement apologizing for threatening to kill her parents. Uh, ok then?

Kim Kardashian might be buying a private island, which is exactly what I would do if I were rich. That, and hire a Mark Ruffalo lookalike to follow me around all day holding my purse. You know, normal stuff.

Liam Hemsworth is wearing me down. He got weirdly and hilariously cuddly with new SNL cast member Leslie Jones during this week’s closing moments, and on Friday he wore high heels on Fallon and talked about Jennifer Lawrence’s fish breath.

-Aw poo. Evan Rachel Wood and Katherine Moennig have already gone their separate ways? But I barely got a chance to ‘ship them!

-Here’s the trailer for Netflix’s new drama Marco Polo.

Chris Pratt, Steve Carell, Ansel Elgort, and Dave Chapelle landed on the covers of GQ’s Men of the Year issue.

-Diplo’s feud with Taylor Swift and Lorde isn’t over yet because he’s clearly super mature and level-headed.

-I’m not a huge fan of novelty songs, but Kristen Bell‘s “Text Me Merry Christmas” is pretty catchy.

-The early reviews for Hunger Games: Mockingjay are in, and they’re overwhelmingly positive. The general consensus is that it’s really good — but really bleak.

-Speaking of early reviews, the Australian premiere of Angelina Jolie’s Unbroken reportedly stunned audiences. It’s looking like two women might be nominated for Best Director this year. How cool would that be?

-A short new trailer for Inherent Vice has landed. The buzz for this thing is already insane.

Jamie Dornan Get Sexy in New Trailer…But Not the Fifty Shades One

Fifty Shades of Grey sex trailer

-A new trailer for Fifty Shades of Grey has landed. As The Star puts it, “it’s about as sexy as a wet dish-rag left out in the yard and chewed on by squirrels.”

-Ironically, a trailer for The Fall starring Jamie Dornan also landed today — and he’s a million times hotter in it than the Fifty Shades one.

-I would totally buy Nick Offerman‘s hand-crafted wood emojis.

Patrick Schwarzenegger and Miley Cyrus made out at a college football game. That’s one way to go public, I guess…

Seth Meyer‘s proved that Aaron Sorkin parodies can still be funny — while trying to prove that they can’t.

-I know it’s hard to believe that an article about the Jonas Brothers could be great, but this one about how Nick Jonas became the king of twinks really is. Trust.

-I like the idea of the Scandal cast getting pranked, I just wish the prank was, you know, good.

-Madame Tussaud’s new Anne Hathaway waxwork is so, so bad, you guys.  What’s up with that nose?

Robert Pattinson shaved a landing strip into his head, which is as gross as it sounds.

Bill Cosby’s booking on Letterman next week has been canceled as those rape allegations resurface.

-Prepare to feel old: Lorde just schooled us all on teen slang.

The Cancel Bear has taught me to realize that more episode orders won’t mean a renewal come spring, but I’m still glad we’re getting a few more of The Mindy Project.

-Here’s a first look at the trailer for ‪The Duff‬. Mae Whitman and Robbie Amell and Robbie Amell’s pecs? Yup yup yup.

Taylor Swift Talks Spotify, Female Role Models in Time

taylor-swift-time-cover

-Time gets (super) up close and personal with Taylor Swift for their new cover.

-GOOP’s holiday gift guide came out today, and it’s as expensive and ridiculous as you’d expect. (I still want that bar cart, though. Don’t judge me.)

-Oh goodie. Here comes the Kim Kardashian think pieces.

-Let’s let Tina Fey have the final word on Kim, shall we?

-On Conan last night, Jessica Chastain told a cute story about her grandma meeting Matthew McConaughey. “He flirted with her like I have never seen.”

Jennifer Lawrence was on Letterman last night, where she continued to be charming as hell, talking about “platonic colonics” and her “tone-deaf Amy Winehouse” singing voice.

Channing Tatum and Jimmy Fallon played Box of Lies last night, and it might have been the best one yet.

Matt LeBlanc‘s rep is shooting down tabloid rumours that he cheated on his GF Andrea Anders.

-I’m amazed that Sean Penn has enough of a sense of humour to engage in a prank war with Woody Harrelson.

Gillian Anderson and Jamie Dornan return this week with the second season of The Fall, which is getting rave reviews overseas.

-Rumours that Michelle MacLaren may direct the Wonder Woman movie are making me want to fist pump through the ceiling. She’s behind some of my favourite Breaking Bad and Game of Thrones sequences — including this and this.

Emma Stone made her Broadway debut in Cabaret this week, and this audio proves she absolutely killed it.

Here’s a clip from the movie Jennifer Aniston is hoping to land an Oscar nomination for. Meh.

-Alright, these Serial parodies are actually pretty friggin’ great. They nailed Sarah Koenig‘s halting delivery and the witnesses’ cluelessness.

-Someone cut all the Joey/Pacey scenes from Dawson’s Creek’s into an hour-long YouTube movie and now I have to cancel the rest of my week…

-Speaking of DC, the ATX Television Festival is staging a reunion with the show’s writers (almost all of whom have gone on to bigger and better things). Even more exciting: they’re hosting a Gilmore Girls reunion with Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel. I want to go to there.

Lorde covering “Don’t Tell Em” made my day. And I don’t even like the original!

-Speaking of Lorde, she stepped into the fray when Katy Perry‘s boyfriend Diplo started twitter-slamming Taylor Swift (even though he’s a grown ass man who should know better).

-One of Bill Cosby‘s alleged victims is now speaking out: “Why did it take 30 years for people to believe my story?”

-Last week, Kevin Spacey wowed us with his celebrity imitations. This week, it’s Benedict Cumberbatch’s turn.
