Lil Jon, LaToya Jackson, Mark McGrath To Compete On ‘Celebrity Apprentice’

Gary Busey, Jose Canseco, Meat Loaf are among other contestants who will appear on reality show’s 11th season. By Gil Kaufman Lil Jon Photo: Getty Images Real estate mogul Donald Trump may not have decided whether he’s running for president, but he’s definitely put together the strangest cabinet yet for the upcoming season of “Celebrity Apprentice.” The Donald went on “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon” on Thursday to unveil the cast for the 11th season of the reality competition, and once again it is a fascinating grab bag of musicians, models, sports figures and actors. From the world of music, the cast of 16 includes King of Crunk Lil Jon, Sugar Ray singer Mark McGrath, country star John Rich, classic rocker Meat Loaf, LaToya Jackson and R&B legend Dionne Warwick. Among the actors signing on for the chance to win some cash for the charity of their choice are unhinged reality staple Gary Busey, 1970s teen idol and “Partridge Family” star David Cassidy, Lisa Rinna and Academy Award winner Marlee Matlin. “LaToya Jackson and Gary Busey anywhere, I’m there!” Fallon enthused. “Gary Busey, yikes.” The other famous faces include tax-troubled “Survivor” winner Richard Hatch, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” firecracker NeNe Leakes, former “View” host Star Jones, model Niki Taylor, former baseball star Jose Canseco and Playboy Playmate of the Year Hope Dworaczyk. Jon and Leakes joined Trump on Fallon’s show on Thursday to help promote the upcoming season by playing a game of charades, with Jon seemingly unclear on the rules of the rec-room staple. “It was like fistfights all the time,” Trump told Fallon about the tension between Jones and Leakes. “I’ve never seen confrontations like that. In fact, they make Omarosa look nice!” Last season was one of the most drama-filled to date, as Poison singer Bret Michaels took the prize amid the medical crisis of his brain hemorrhage. The show premieres on March 6 on NBC. Related Photos ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ Season 11 Cast Related Artists Lil Jon

Lesley Manville on Another Year and Why She Doesn’t Care About the Golden Globes

When speaking with Another Year star Lesley Manville, it’s hard to not walk away with the impression that she feels this is her big break. Sure, her career has spanned over 30 years — and Another Year is her sixth film with Academy Award nominated director Mike Leigh — but, as Manville points out, no other performance of hers has ever generated this much buzz in the United States during awards season. An awards season that has already garnered Best Actress accolades from the National Board of Review.

Roger Ebert Says This NYC Blizzard Short Film Should Win an Oscar

We’ve gotten some nifty time-lapse videos of the East Coast blizzard, but in terms of capturing the beauty, hardship and sheer scope of the weather, Jamie Stuart’s snow-covered, New-York-shot ode to the Soviet montage is the end-all. Roger Ebert is already calling for the film to receive an Academy Award because of its quality and technical profiency as well as its “role as homage.” Indeed, Stuart’s short Idiot with a Tripod does an admirable job paying tribute to Dziga Vertov’s 1929 silent classic Man With a Movie Camera while still capturing the trials and tribulations that people (and dogs) endured at the hands of the snowstorm.

Lindsay Lohan Legs Leaving Rehab of the Day

Here is some broken down Lohan showing off her leg on her way to rehab or therapy or whatever the fuck she’s doing to better herself and make her feel like she’s on her way to being a well-rounded person because I still believe in her having comeback and even if she never pulls through and shows the world the pussy in academy award nominated films…at least she has her inner demons eating away at her that gives us hope she will show the world her pussy in in some drunken or drug fueled rage….

Gift Guide: The Next Rushmore?

There are any number of reasons to dislike Simon Rich: At 26, he’s a published author, writer for Saturday Night Live and The New Yorker and can call famed New York Times columnist Frank Rich “dad.” Oh, there’s also the fact that his first novel, Elliot Allagash , hasn’t even been out for a year and is already earmarked for big-screen glory thanks to Academy Award nominee Jason Reitman. Ugh! There’s just one reason to not want to smack Rich upside the head: He’s really, really talented.

Jean-Luc Godard, Piracy Defender

Famed French filmmaker (and possible Academy Award Honoree ) Jean-Luc Godard is using some of the money he saved with his Hyundai purchase to fight the good fight against copyright laws. The filmmaker is donating 1,000 Euros to the defense of James Climent, who is accused of downloading 13,788 MP3 s illegally. In a statement about the donation Godard said, “There is no such thing as intellectual property.” Maybe Climent can just use the same defense Godard used when director Sam Fuller accused him of plagiarism: Downloading those 13,788 MP3 s wasn’t stealing, it was homage .

Some Tits in Some Shit Movie Called Spirit Camp of the Day

Sometimes I like to take a break from all this mindless shit and focus on something intellectual, like titty clips from straight to DVD movies that had no business ever being made, it’s like it brings up so many intense questions about the human race on a philosophical level, and those questions include lots of gratutious tits to keep me distracted from wanting any real substance…kinda like the stripper at the stripclub version of a movie…So here’s Roxy Vandiver, Sarah McCulley and Katy Rowe showing their tits in the instant classic that may get an Academy Award for best straight to DVD movie called Spirit Camp cuz they use all the key elements…Tits….
