Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark Actress T.V. Carpio: ‘I Wouldn’t Do It If I Didn’t Feel Safe’

Just weeks after stepping into the lead female role in Julie Taymor’s highly scrutinized $65 million musical Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark , T.V. Carpio is already collecting compliments for her performance as Arachne, a role for which she replaced original cast member Natalie Mendoza following the string of highly publicized accidents and delays that rocked the Broadway community. Movieline spoke exclusively with the film and stage actress today — not long after the news hit that Spider-Man ‘s opening date will be postponed, yet again, to March — in a wide-ranging career-tracking conversation that will be posted in full soon. For now, hit the jump to hear what Carpio had to say in response to Spider-Man ‘s critics.

Paris Hilton Plays My Favorite Scene: ‘Who Was It? Ben Stiller or Matt Damon?’

Say what you will about Paris Hilton, but the blond heiress/actress/socialite/entrepreneur arrived promptly for NBC Universal’s Television Critics Press tour event on Thursday night in Pasadena, and gamely talked to each and every reporter who requested a word. Like Movieline! Ahead, Paris — who stars on the new Oxygen series The World According to Paris — discusses her perceived life as a dumb blonde and her favorite film scene (which, ironically, is from a movie about a dumb blonde).

Bride of Chucky Forced Oprah to Eat 30 Pounds of Mac and Cheese

Last week, Oprah Winfrey was criticized for spending 18 minutes preaching about the power of hopes and dreams . To prove that she is not just a motivational speaker sent from God (as she herself insinuated within that lengthy sermon), Oprah sat down with Piers Morgan for his first CNN show determined to prove that she is indeed human. Exhibit A: Back in 1998, Oprah succumbed to Bride of Chucky -related depression and binge-ate 30 pounds worth of macaroni and cheese.

Weep For the Poor Girls Working The Glee Project’s Critic Event

Just how far did NBC Universal go to promote The Glee Project during this afternoon’s Television Critics Association panel for Oxygen? Let’s put it this way: they hired a squad of actresses (and actors) to dress up in Cheerio-esque costumes, prance into a ballroom full of tired TV critics wielding pompoms and then do a herkie each time a question was posed to producers onstage.

Last night, Stephen Colbert did his best to make sense — and make light — of Sarah Palin’s unfortunate and incorrect use of the term “blood libel” on The Colbert Report .

Glee’s Heather Morris on Her Viral Rap Video, Sofia Vergara and Her Lesbian Make Out Scene

The second season of Glee has been an important one for Heather Morris. The actress — who portrays Brittany, the ditzy New Directions member who believes that Dr. Pepper is a dentist — became an official series regular, made her singing debut (in her character’s titular episode), out-danced Britney Spears and established herself as the most reliably funny actor on the Emmy-nominated series. Knowing all of this, Movieline made a point to track down the Arizona-raised back-up-dancer-turned-actress at Tuesday night’s Fox TCA Press Party to ask the break-out triple talent about her hilarious viral rap video , the possibility of a lesbian relationship on the show and her character’s patented one-liners.

The happythankyoumoreplease Trailer Leaves Us Hoping for More, Please

You should never really judge a film by its trailer, if only because, like books and their covers, the trailer only tells the part of the story marketing wants you to know. So, let’s all give the new trailer for Josh Radnor’s well-received 2010 Sundance Audience Award winner a pass…because, hoo boy , is this one horrible.
