MAJOR TMI ALERT! MAJOR TMI ALERT! As part of its 50th anniversary, Cosmopolitan recently released a cover that featured all female members of the Kardashians and Jenners, labeling this clan as ” America's First Family .” The publication received a lot of crap for that headline. Speaking of crap, the following video features Kylie and Kendall Jenner reliving the time when one of them pooped her pants… and proceeded to leave a trail of that substance all around the house. In this rundown of Kardashian Konfessions, we also learn who has a name for her vagina and who claims to have been caught joining the Mile High Club . Check out the footage now… and prepare to never look at these people in the same way again.
When you see footage of Daniel Radcliffe rapping an Eminem song in its entirety at a bar, you might assume the dude has had a few. But as he’s said in numerous interviews, Radcliffe hasn’t touched a drop in several years, having sworn off the sauce after losing control of his drinking in his late teens and early twenties. Of course, during that time, Radcliffe was also filming the final installments of the Harry Potter franchise, and he’s repeatedly dodged questions about whether or not he performed any drunkus at workus spells on set. In a new interview with Playboy, however, Radcliffe opens up about everything from boozing to masturbation , and it turns out he did, in fact, sip a little firewhiskey in the halls of Hogwarts: “I can say lots of well-meaning stuff—why it happened and how I stopped—for three hours, and the headline would be DRUNK ON THE SET OF HARRY POTTER,” Radcliffe said. “So I don’t talk about it as much now.” We understand Daniel’s reluctance to talk about his sobriety, and we hate to fulfill his splashy headline prophecy, but c’mon – “drunk on the Harry Potter set” is too good to pass up. In the same interview, Daniel was asked about the challenges of being a short guy in Hollywood, and he had this to say: “Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise have very different careers, and they’re both about the same height as I am…If you’re asking, ‘Can you play a really fucking tall person?’ No, obviously not.” It’s an interesting comment that some folks are interpreting as shade, because 1. Tom Cruise does attempt to play tall dudes (which Daniel seems to think is lame), and 2. He’s “officially” several inches taller than Radcliffe (who cops to being 5’5″). We’re guessing he didn’t intend to call Tom out for lying about his height, but we like when other celebs confirm that Cruise’s Xenu thetans didn’t actually help him sprout to six foot.

“There was one particular time I knew I wasn’t going to win, and when they’d train the camera on me as one of the losers, I wanted to be able to rip open my tuxedo shirt and just have stenciled on my chest, ‘Oh, shit.’ But my wife wouldn’t let me do it.” While he’s at it, here’s more vivid imagery from Hoffman recalling his days rooming with fellow Oscar winner Robert Duvall: “One time he came home when a girl and I were taking a shower, and the next thing you know he had taken off all his clothes, got in with us, put his hand out, and said, ‘Hey, I’m Dusty’s roommate, Bob Duvall. Can I have the soap?'” [ Maxim via Moviefone ]
Anyone who’s seen Contagion (or, let’s be honest, even just the trailer for Contagion ) knows that Steven Soderbergh is not precious about keeping his biggest stars breathing for the duration of his films. And when you think about it, that is kind of an awesome against-the-tide trend that few directors — okay, few studios — have the wherewithal to attempt. Chatting with the UK’s Independent about Contagion and Haywire , Soderbergh dropped some science on the art of manipulating the very essence of stardom in movies to great effect. “It’s always good to kill movie stars,” he told the Independent. “I think that the two most important things that have happened to that aspect of movies in the last 50 years are Hitchcock killing off Janet Leigh in a way that nobody had ever dreamed of doing – taking his heroine and killing her off after 40 minutes – and… Mike Nichols casting Dustin Hoffman in The Graduate . That changed everything.” “Now it’s back to the way it was before that single decision totally turned the world upside down in terms of what was people’s idea of a movie star. That one stroke ushered in the great actors who followed, De Niro, Pacino and Nicholson.” So how does one shake up audience expectation again in movies chock-full of A-listers?

Actor who played Uncle Leo was also on ‘Everybody Loves Raymond.’ By Terri Schwartz Len Lesser in 2001 Photo: Jason Kirk/ Getty Images Actor Len Lesser, best known for his “Seinfeld” role as good-natured, cantankerous Uncle Leo, passed away Wednesday morning in Burbank, California, from cancer-related pneumonia. He was 88. Reuters reported that Lesser was admitted to a rehabilitation center near his home several weeks ago. His family said he died in his sleep after breakfast and told CNN that his passing was “very peaceful.” “Heaven got a great comedian and actor today,” daughter Michele Lesser told the New York Daily News . “The outpouring of sympathy we’ve already received has been amazing and is so greatly appreciated. Thank you to all the people who helped make my father’s last journey special and surrounded with love.” The veteran actor appeared in only 15 episodes of “Seinfeld,” but made a memorable mark as the cheapskate uncle best known for saying “Jerry! Hello!” whenever he saw his nephew. Lesser also had a running appearance on “Everybody Loves Raymond” as Garvin, a friend of Raymond’s father who always lifted his arms in excitement when he saw the title character in a reference back to his stint on “Seinfeld.” In addition to his long television career as a bit actor, Lesser also served in the army during World War II and worked in film alongside Hollywood heavyweights like Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Lee Marvin, Dustin Hoffman, Barbara Streisand and Donald Sutherland. His last role was as a neighbor in a 2009 episode of ABC’s “Castle.” Lesser is survived by two children, Michele and David, and three grandchildren.
