Mainstream America loves its smut. And if there’s anything the Weinstein Company learned two years ago in their failed efforts to market Zack and Miri Make a Porno , it was never to send a fake porn flick to do a real porn flick’s job. Hence (I think) the new viral Web site Wild Wild Girls , a prohibitively NSFW exercise on behalf of Piranha 3-D . Did I mention it’s NSFW ?

The lineup for the upcoming Los Angeles Film Festival has been announced and if you’re a Twilight fan, prepare to be jealous. The LAFF will host an invitation-only world premiere of The Twilight Saga: Eclipse a full six days before its release to the ravenous, abs-deprived public. Also on tap: Lisa Cholodenko’s The Kids Are Alright (co-starring Annette Benning, Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo and Mia Wasikowska), will kick the festival off on June 17, Despicable Me (the 3D animated flick featuring the voices of Steve Carell, Russell Brand, Jason Segal, Will Arnett and Julie Andrews) closes things down on June 27 and the Duplass brothers’ much-anticipated Cyrus will screen, too. After the jump, a list of the films in competition.

Season six American Idol winner Jordin Sparks is putting her recording career on hold for a new venture — a starring role in the Broadway musical In the Heights , which won the 2008 Tony for Best Musical. She follows in the footsteps of season-four contestant Constantine Maroulis, who was nominated for a Tony in Rock of Ages , and Diana DeGarmo and Ace Young, who currently co-star in Hair . Season five winner Taylor Hicks still performs on tour as Teen Angel in Grease too, which should alleviate your concerns that he is, you know, playing craps in a tunnel with Mandisa somewhere.

Two comedies are staffing up with some mighty impressive casts. First, we’ve got the Kristen Wiig vehicle known as Bridesmaids , which is adding Jon Hamm, Dianne Wiest and Matt Lucas to a cast that already includes Rose Byrne, Maya Rudolph, Ellie Kemper, and a raft of other female comics. Then there’s the Steve Martin-Jack Black-Owen Wilson bird-watching comedy The Big Year , which has brought on Rashida Jones, Jim Parsons, Rosamund Pike, Joel McHale, Dianne Wiest (again!) and many more. All this, and no room for Stephen Baldwin ? [ Twitter , Variety ]

Confused by Paramount’s reluctance to greenlight the long-awaited sequels to Anchorman and Zoolander ? Mike Fleming at our sister site Deadline puts things into perspective: Neither of those films was profitable overseas and the studio would have to hope for a high domestic gross on the sequels to make the production worthwhile. So, I put the question to you: How much do you think each of these sequels could make?
The rest is here:

Actress Helen Wager, a star on As the World Turns for nearly six decades, died over the weekend of unknown causes at the age of 91.

If you’re exhausted by the seeming inertia of the whole Roman Polanski extradition saga, here’s something that should get you going again: The house-arrested filmmaker would like to take a few minutes to explain his point of view on the legal drama, apparently provoked by last week’s decision that the Swiss justice ministry would not accept secret testimony from a prosecutor who was on the case three decades ago. This is all just too much for a guy who mortgaged his apartment for bail and can’t get back to work with this dumb ankle bracelet on. Click through for Polanski’s full statement released Sunday.

And Jon Cryer breathes a sigh of relief. Despite publicly declaring that he wants to leave Two and a Half Men , sources are “cautiously optimistic” that star Charlie Sheen and CBS are on the verge of agreeing on a two-year extension, which is the same length of time that the network is committed to Chuck Lorre’s series. Sheen hopes to have this deal — and a plea deal with the Aspen prosecutors — completed by the CBS upfronts on May 19. [ Deadline ]

Take that Steve Martin! Alec Baldwin told reporters at last night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner that he would be hosting the season finale of Saturday Night Live on May 15th. Fittingly, that will mark the fifteenth time he’s handled the duties, tying him with Steve Martin for the most in the show’s history. And somewhere, Steven Seagal waits by the phone for Lorne Michaels’ call. [ TV Guide ]
