So You Think You Can Dance Elimination: Tapped Out

Well, that was a world of suspense. SYTYCD ‘s judges booted tapper Melinda Sullivan last night, not a day after Mia Michaels snarked, “We made a mistake last week and should’ve eliminated you.” Nigel Lythgoe at least pretended the technically imperfect Melinda had a chance at survival and refrained from saying, “At this point we just need to shoot the rabid greyhound in the face, Melinda, if you will. Sorry, dear.” Oh, Melinda. You weren’t going to outshine Billy Bell or Robert Roldan in the dance-off, not with a tap or a hoof or a prayer. But you were a phenomenal dancer, just like your ancient, awesome mentor said — and according to the video we’ve posted after the jump, you apparently had a lot of you could’ve taught us.

Scream 4 Script Rewrites Causing Major Trouble Among Cast?

Since Scream 4 updates apparently happen hourly , here’s your latest: Screenwriter Kevin Williamson has already been replaced on the set by Scream 3 writer Ehren Kruger. And now Kruger — the man responsible in part for the immortal Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen script — is handling the rewrites and apparently leaving the cast quite unhappy. The changes reportedly caused Lauren Graham to drop out and are upsetting Hayden Panetierre, whose role has been “dumbed down significantly.” Just wait until she’s allowed to read the finished script.

Angelina Jolie is Salt, and Awesome

Between her great humanitarian work and bogus celebrity gossip items dominating headlines, it’s been awhile since we’ve seen Angelina Jolie, you know, in a movie. While an increasingly rare sight, the glitz and glamour of the red carpet sure suit the actress well, as she proved when she stepped out to promote her newest film. Here’s Angelina at the premiere of Salt … Angelina Jolie in all her A-list glory . In Mexico with her four eldest kids to promote the summer action movie, she looked as fabulous as ever, leaving us hoping this is just the beginning. She recently told Vanity Fair that she doesn’t plan on acting much longer so that she can focus on family . An admirable sentiment, but we’d miss her! How does her dress above compare to some of her previous red carpet fashion statements? Click to enlarge some Angelina Jolie pictures below …

VIDEO: 30 Minutes After Nabbing the Role, Your New Spider-Man Struggles to Speak English

Andrew Garfield flew to Cancun this week expecting simply to promote The Social Network at a Sony media summit. Instead, he was told that he’d nabbed the ultra-coveted role of Spider-Man — then, still reeling (and struggling to rehearse the deceptively simple introduction, “Hey guys, how’s it going”), the 26-year-old Brit was hurried to a press conference for an announcement . This is what happened behind the scenes:

25 Things to Hate About Ryan, The Real World’s Worst Cast Member

The Real World used to cast a bunch of slightly mismatched young adults with obvious ideological and cultural differences, but for the past seven years (give or take), they’ve chosen six archetypes and one totally toxic center. We had Ayiiia in Cancun , Paula in Key West , and now in Back to New Orleans we have Ryan Leslie, a Tempe, Arizona hairstylist who flits, fumes, and remarks about a female castmate’s miniskirt, “You’re just asking to get raped.” Yep, a charmer on all fronts. And there’s 25 more bullets where that came from — just from last night’s premiere! Can you name them? Ready? Go!
