Could a Franco-Hathaway Oscars Be a Good Thing?

Movieline spewed some necessary skepticism following AMPAS’ announcement that James Franco and Anne Hathaway will host the Oscars this year. It’s kind of weird. Two super-young stars with (some) Oscar buzz this year? Confounding. But let’s remain open to the possibility that the surprise plan may be a good one.

The Only Leslie Nielsen Tribute You’ll Ever Need

We might have the market cornered on fine Irvin Kershner eulogies , but I hand it over to Patric Hruby to do the honors for this weekend’s other illustrious deceased: “Enrico Pallazzo, an acclaimed Italian opera singer who achieved greater international fame by thwarting an assassination attempt on the queen of England while working as a baseball umpire, died Sunday. He was 84.” Slow clap. [ ESPN via Twitter ]

Should Susan Boyle Sing at the Royal Wedding?

He’s already a reality show judge and record producer. But Simon Cowell is looking to add another title to his resume: wedding planner. Speaking to Extra , Cowell offered up an idea for who should sing at the royal nuptials between Prince William and Kate Middleton . “Susan Boyle would be perfect,” said the former American Idol panelist, adding that Boyle’s “I Dreamed a Dream” would be the ideal wedding song for the pair. As the world knows by now, William and Kate got engaged last month and have scheduled their exchanging of vows to take place at Westminster Abbey on April 29, 2011. Billions are expected to watch on television. Would Boyle be able to handle that pressure? Do you think she’d made a good choice to sing at the reception? [poll id=”1660″ /]

Willie Nelson Arrested For Marijuana Possession

Legendary singer Willie Nelson was busted over the weekend in Texas for possession of six ounces of marijuana. Wait … Willie Nelson smokes pot? Who knew. Nelson’s tour bus pulled into a routine checkpoint in Sierra Blanca, Tex. and in an astonishing feat of law enforcement, an officer noticed a familiar herb smell. Hudspeth County Sheriff Arvin West said: “It’s kind of surprising, but I mean we treat him like anybody else.” And by surprising, he probably means not at all. It wasn’t Willie Nelson’s first drug bust. Nor will it be the last . As much of a joke as this sounds like, a criminal defense attorney in Austin says six ounces of pot could get Willie six months minimum and up to two years. But Bruce Margolin, director of the L.A. chapter of NORML, thinks he has a defense that could spring the 77-year-old crooner by tracing the weed to Cali. Specifically, Nelson can claim he forgot the California-grown pot was on the bus. The Golden State is cool with medicinal marijuana, after all. Stay tuned.

I thought she was broke and jobless, how the hell can she afford jewelry? Oh my god! Maybe she’s finally going to ask me to marry her over Twitter …. I wouldn’t say no.
