"Get a f---ing life!," exclaimed Gerard Butler- at some alleged female whores.

The unidentified women, had grabbed the Law Abiding Citizen's ass. The incident took place at a London Nightclub, the Daily Mirror revealed.

"The girls looked a bit sheepish, as Gerard headed across the road for
yet more booze," a confident of Butler stated. The 300 star, told the ladies again- to "F@!& OFF," as he got his liquor.

The 40-year-old hunk actor, told the press- his life is "really
boring" and he can't understand woman's hypocrisy to treat him as a piece of meat, after all their complaining of similar treatment.

"I just like to go back home and chill out with friends. It sounds
really boring but it's true," Butler finished.

DID ARI GOLD MAKE ACTUAL,ILLEGAL GAY JOKE AT LLOYD ON THE ENTOURAGE??

From TMZ-
The creator of "Entourage" is vowing to put a stop to the gay and
racial "jokes" being thrown around on the set of his show, after one
of the stars revealed he's "occasionally" targeted ... and unhappy
about it.


Rex Lee -- who plays Lloyd on the show -- was out in L.A. yesterday,
where he claimed certain members of the crew "occasionally" make fun
of his ethnicity and sexuality on set. Rex added, "I try not to let it
bother me."


After Lee's admission, the show's creator Doug Ellin told TMZ he's
"shocked and horrified" to hear about the situation and "will be
speaking to everybody before we start filming again in March. It's not
something condoned or acceptable."


Ellin also told us he already spoke to Lee -- and during the convo,
Rex re-confirmed that crew members had made "insensitive gay jokes."


Ellin claims he's now going to lay down the gauntlet, telling Rex if
it happens again, the culprit will be fired.

VARIETY CONFIRMS THAT FOX TV- WILL DEMOLISH ELISA DUSHKU'S DOLLHOUSE.

The network's decision to pull the show for Nov. sweeps,seemed unmoved by adding Summer Glau from the failed Terminator series and unwillingness to plug the show, even by viral video- sealed its fate.

Creator Joss Whedon, is making a last ditch effort to sell new episodes of show to the SyFi channel, as Dushku's last show, Tru Calling is a cult hit, there.

Dollhouse should return on December 4th. The network "is currently producing the...11th episode and Dollhouse is expected to finish up its 13-episode order." Whedon is also trying to get a pulled show from last year broadcast, in the Brothers/Til Death, slot- as insides sources stated- no one is watching those "turds" either.

All known episodes (13) will be broadcast. The last show will solve all the mysteries of the classy, sleaze palace of the the rich and/or evil. The sources claim- that Elisa D's meta alter ego-violently slutty,hipster Echo, may not even survive once the house is finally torn down.

STEVE MARTIN AND ALEC BALDWIN TO TAG TEAM HOST THE OSCARS.

From The Wrap


Breaking with tradition, a pair of hosts -- Steve Martin and Alec Baldwin --
will serve as co-hosts of the 82nd Academy Awards, Oscar telecast producers Bill
Mechanic and Adam Shankman announced today.


“We think the team of Steve and Alec are the perfect pair of hosts for the
Oscars,” said Shankman and Mechanic. “Steve will bring the experience of having
hosted the show in the past and Alec will be a completely fresh personality for
this event.”


“I am happy to co-host the Oscars with my enemy Alec Baldwin,” said Martin.


“I don’t play the banjo but I’m thrilled to be hosting the Oscars – it’s the
opportunity of a lifetime,” said Baldwin.


Martin hosted the 73rd and 75th Academy Awards shows, earning an Emmy nomination
for the first stint. He has also served as a presenter on the show several
times, most recently at the ceremony in February when he appeared with Tina Fey.
He is currently touring with the bluegrass band Steep Canyon Rangers in support
of his latest album “The Crow: New Songs for the Five String Banjo.” In 1977
and 1978 Martin won Grammys for Best Comedy Recording. He earned a third Grammy
in 2001 in the Best Country Instrumental Performance category. In 2007 Martin
earned a Kennedy Center Honor.


Baldwin was nominated for an Academy Award in 2003 for his supporting role in
“The Cooler.” That year also marked his most recent appearance as a presenter
on the show. Baldwin currently stars as Jack Donaghy on the comedy “30 Rock,” a
role for which he has won two Emmys (in 2008 and 2009). Baldwin earned a Tony
nomination in 1992 for his performance in “A Streetcar Named Desire.”


Academy Awards for outstanding film achievements of 2009 will be presented on
Sunday, March 7, 2010, at the Kodak Theatre at Hollywood & Highland Center®, and
televised live by the ABC Television Network. The Oscar presentation also will

An agreement has not yet been confirmed by the network ...


This could mean the show will return early, though an open time slot

PICK UP- BRANGELINA: EXPOSED FOR CHRISTMAS.

FROM ZAP2IT.COM

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's holiday season will be interesting one.


Investigative journalist Ian Halperin and author of bestseller
"Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson" has turned his pen to
the superstar couple in "Brangelina Exposed," due to hit bookstore
shelves on Dec. 1. Ah yes, just in time for the holiday season: a time
for giving, gathering with loved ones and revealing dirt on global
celebrities.


Although some of the book will delve into Jolie's colorfully dark
past, including the estrangement with her father, drug use and sexual
exploits, Halperin also promises to reveal some things we don't
actually know.


Among some of the alleged revelations in the book:


* Brad and Angelina "have successfully manipulated the public into
believing a glamorous fairytale that bears little resemblance to the
reality of the pair's life together."
* The "real reason" behind the split between Pitt and Jennifer
Aniston.
* An introduction to "the key figure behind the scenes who
orchestrated her makeover into a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador."
* How Angie's relationship with model/actress Jenny Shimizu is still
"ongoing."
* How her personal lifestyle choices "are not only affecting her
growing family, but causing serious and potentially irreparable

NBC has bought- the non-competition companion series, to air with its reality hit The Biggest Loser. The show would air for eight weeks and will be called Losing It With Jillian M.,made by the infamous Reveille entertainment and Empowered Media Enterprises.The show would air against American Idol.

The hot and scrappy fitness host will travel the nation helping "weight-challenged Americans that they can get the same results as contestants on The Biggest
Loser without attending the show’s immersive fitness boot camp."


In self-contained shows, Michaels moves into a family’s
house "and give them a top-to-bottom fitness, nutrition and wellness
makeover and "will take on multiple aspects of living a
healthier lifestyle."


Micheals stated:
"This show is very different. I’m not going to scream at a 10-year-old.
You’re going to see different aspects of my personality, and it’s more
about the big picture and not just being skinny.”

From the fine liberals at the Huffington Post-

Tracy Morgan's new autobiography 'I Am the New Black' promises to be
delightfully loopy--the impassioned audiobook version, even more so.

In the clip below, Morgan talks about the old days at SNL, which leave
him with no love lost for former costars Chris Kattan (currently playing a used car salesman on middling sit-com The Middle,)and Cheri Oteri(currenlty seeking work,by Morgan's "$300 million" standards.)

"I could remember those two, especially those two people, treating me
like the invisible guy. Now look where they at. Cheri Oteri, she can't
even get arrested," he reads.


Then he adds some extra commentary.


"That's what happened to me over there. They never treated me well,"
he says. "I never cared for them either. F--- 'em!!"

"HELLO SYDNEY!" NEVE CAMPBELL RESIGNS WITH COURTNEY COX AND DAVID ARQUETTE FOR SCREAM 4!

From Zap2it.com
Scream" protagonist Sidney Prescott's life is going to get thrilling
again in 2010.


Dimension Films' Bob Weinstein announced that Neve Campbell, Courteney
Cox and David Arquette are all back on board to reprise their roles
for a the next installment of the "Scream" franchise, beginning
production in Spring 2010, reports Variety.


Wes Craven is being courted to direct the sequel, which was written by
Kevin Williamson, who's currently behind The CW's "The Vampire
Diaries."


In a previous interview with Zap2it's Korbi Ghosh, Williamson had
revealed that Cox and Arquette were already back, but Campell's return
was still uncertain.


Weinstein also announced that the company will have a new emphasis on
3D, with Robert Rodriguez's soon-to-be-written "Spy Kids 4" being
realized in 3D. In addition, Dimension is looking to remake
"Short Circuit" and "An American Werewolf in London."

HAYDEN PANETTIERE TAKES PARENTS TO LAST NIGHT KILLERS CONCERT.

EXCLUSIVE!

Claire Bear herself escorted: her mom and dad, to the Killers concert. The tiny beauty- dressed in a grey blouse,blue jeans and high heeled black leather boots with ruby bottoms, appeared to be having fun with her family.

While viewing the opening act of The Psychedelic Furs, she got bored of the Micheal Stripe-like swaying, of the coke bottled glassed lead singer.

She decided to walk up to a security guard,near her seats and politely asked him, "Where's the best place to smoke" at the Hollywood Bowl? The music was so loud ,that the actress was forced to repeat her questions and the guard tried several times to answer her queries.

"So, I can smoke the ladies (room?,)" said the cheerleader actress.

The guard finally told Beth Cooper, that if she smokes anywhere in the venue, she "could be fined" -since smoking at the Bowl is illegal. A look of fear crossed her face and she scurried away without further word, with her mom in tow.

After the Furs finished and twenty minutes passed, Panettiere returned with her family to their seats. About five minute later, she left her parents, as the Killer began their show and Hayden left to meet her date, Foo Fighter leader Dave Grohl. She proceeded to leave with him, for his seats on the west side of the pavilion.

Backstage, the guard heard about other famous people at the event, including talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and Saw's Shawnee Smith. Then, he asked the lady workers, what they thought of Noah Bennett's golden girl?

The working class ladies at the event, couldn't hide the disdain for petite actress. A red haired usher called her, " a B level actress, who can't act." and another brunette waitress, remarked how little the thespian was, but amazed how "fat" she seemed to her.

During the Killers' encore, the Furs front man Rich Butler-jumped on stage, after one their songs and satirized- the Kanye West debacle on MTV. He declared his band had "did a great song tonight" and should headline their own show. After the audience cheered, The Killers vocalist Dave K. (I suspect) declared confusedly "that was... great" and "What the hell was that?!"

UFC FIGHTER GINA CARRINO- TO PLAY A HAYWIRED KNOCKOUT.

At Toronto's Film Festival, Lionsgate has bought the American distribution rights for Knockout, which will be director Steven Soderbergh's next film-right after- The Informant!

Ryan Kavanaugh's Relativity Media will wholly finance the spy thriller. The comely,fighting beauty, will make her acting debut in the flick that will be "in the vein of La Femme Nikita" mixed with the sleak,too smart cool, of TV's Alias.

The film stars its January production in very worldly areas- including the U.S., Ireland, and Turkey.

The script was penned by Lem Dobbs, with Gregory Jacobs executive producing with Kavanaugh, and Tucker Tooley.

LENO CONCEDES: NBC TRY TO SHORTEN HIS TENURE ON TONIGHT-YEARS AGO.
-They wanted to give the job to Conan O'Brien,as early as thirty-six months ago.

From UPI-

U.S. comedian Jay Leno says NBC executives originally planned for him to serve as host of The Tonight Show for a shorter time.

Leno, who will premiere his new prime time TV series on NBC next week,
said he was informed by NBC officials- five years ago- that they wanted to
replace him with comedian Conan O'Brien within three years, The New York Times
reported Saturday.

"Actually, they wanted me out in three years," said Leno, who departed
the Tonight Show in May. "I had to argue to get the other two. Oh, yeah.
I said: 'Let's make it five. You want me out? I'll do five.'"


Leno's recollection of those past events has been questioned by Rick
Ludwin, NBC's executive in charge of late-night programs.


"That is definitely not my recollection," Ludwin said. "I don't
remember three years being mentioned."


Now both sides are betting on the success of The Jay Leno Show with
NBC heavily promoting the new prime time series due to premiere Tonight.


"It's just so embarrassing," Leno told the Times of his response to
the wealth of "Leno" promotions. "It's a genetic fault that makes you go into
show business. It's not a plus."

that the 43 yr. old Boomerang actress, "is three months pregnant

DAKOTA FANNING MISSED TIN MAN, SO- SHE PLANS HER OWN DARKER VERSION OF THE THE WIZ.

From tinyurl.com

-Dakota Fanning could don ruby covered combat boots, instead of slippers for this "sequel": the WB studio is claims this will be "more action-packed"(a la Ripley from Aliens) than that '39 musical.


The Wizard of Oz starred Judy Garland as Dorothy, a Kansas farm-girl
who finds herself whisked to a technicolor world of munchkins and
witches. By contrast, the Warner Bros remake will play out in the
present day and chart the adventures of Dorothy's feistier
granddaughter.


"You've still got Dorothy trapped in an odd place," explains co-
producer Todd McFarlane. "But she's much closer to the Ripley
character from Alien, than a helpless singing girl."


Fanning, 15, came to fame with roles opposite Robert De Niro in Hide
and Seek and Tom Cruise in War of the Worlds, before going on to star
in Charlotte's Web and The Secret Life of Bees. She will next be seen
in New Moon, the sequel to last year's vampire romance Twilight.


Based on the 1900 children's book by L Frank Baum, The Wizard of Oz
stuttered on its initial release, before going on to be embraced by
generations of film-goers. The US Library of Congress claims that it
is now the most watched movie in cinema history.


Inevitably the film casts a shadow that other sequels have struggled
to escape. Liza Minelli – Garland's daughter – voiced a little-seen
cartoon version, Journey Back to Oz, in the 60s, while Walter Murch's
ambitious Return to Oz bombed at the box office in 1985. Warners will
no doubt be hoping that their all-new, action-packed version fares
differently.

FOX TO USE FOCUS GROPUS- TO DETERMINE IF PAULA ABDUL IS WORTH THE MONEY.


“Fox loooves focus groups,” a well-placed TV executive told
RadarOnline. “If Paula consistently scores far higher than any other
person in her chair, they will feel compelled to make her an offer she
can’t refuse and make this deal happen.”


PressFocus groups are going to help the folks at Fox determine
just how much money they need to offer Paula Abdul to bring her back
to American Idol, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.


The TV executives want to know how audiences respond to any new judge
other than Paula. “They know no one can replace Paula,” a source
said. The testing will help them see just how damaging it might be
not to have Abdul back and figure out just what their new financial
offer should be.


Paula will not be seen in any of the early audition shows; that much
is certain. The fourth judge for those outings will be the likes of
Victoria Beckham, Mary J. Blige and Shania Twain. Although none of
these guest judges is being considered as Paula’s replacement, video
of them on the job will be used for comparison purposes with the focus
groups.


Those who know Paula the best believe she wants to make it happen
too. One of her closest associates told RadarOnline.com that Paula
was “bored” after eight seasons as well as feeling under-appreciated
by the show’s producers and executives at Fox.


Paula has always believed that she was the most important personality
in the cast with more fan appeal than Simon Cowell or Ryan Seacrest.
She could not believe they were handed such huge deals and she was
not.


She also often told friends that she did not believe American Idol
could survive without her, another insider told RadarOnline.com.


“It’s not that she doesn’t have other things going on, she does,” the
friend said. “But it is so much easier to go back to Idol and use that
as a platform to promote all her other ventures. Everyone who knows
her believes she will be back.” All parties are back in talks – if
not exactly formal negotiations -- about exactly how to make what
seems to be the inevitable happen.


The show’s producers had wanted four judges from the very beginning of
American Idol, RadarOnline.com has also learned. There are four at
every other Idol around the world – from Japan to Australia to would-
you-believe Afghanistan.


“There will be four judges at American Idol come January,” a well-
placed source said. “And that fourth judge will be Paula Abdul.”
