You don’t need me to explain to you how Harvey Weinstein is half huckster-genius and half megalomaniac witch doctor (even though I have, again and again and again ). Find all the evidence you need in Thursday’s announcement that Bully — the “controversial” documentary chronicling America’s bullying epidemic — would finally receive the PG-13 rating it so conspicuously sought from the MPAA. The best part: It won’t even have to trim the offending scene at the heart of all the publicity to date. Surprise! Suckers. The MPAA won’t even insist on the customary 90-day window between R- and PG-13-rated versions. Great! No one will ever accuse them of making it up as they go along ever again ! From a Weinstein Company press release: The Weinstein Company aided by the guidance and consultation from attorneys David Boies and Ted Olson, announced today that the MPAA has lowered the R rating, given for some language, for BULLY to a PG-13 in time for the film’s April 13th expansion to 55 markets. The scene that has been at the forefront of the battle with the MPAA, the intense scene in the film that shows teen Alex Libby being bullied and harassed on a bus, has been left fully intact and unedited. BULLY director Lee Hirsch felt editing the scene was not an option, and subsequently refused to do so, since it is too important to the truth and integrity behind the film. Also a victory is the exception the MPAA made by allowing the film to be released with the new rating before 90 days, which is the length of time their policy states a film must wait to be in theaters after a rating change to avoid confusion or inconvenience for moviegoers. This decision by the MPAA is a huge victory for the parents, educators, lawmakers, and most importantly, children, everywhere who have been fighting for months for the appropriate PG-13 rating without cutting some of the most sensitive moments. Three uses of the ‘F word’ were removed from other scenes, which ultimately persuaded the MPAA to lower the rating. Hirsch made the documentary with the intent to give an uncensored, real-life portrayal of what 13 million children suffer through every year. The new rating, which came about with the great support from MPAA Chairman Chris Dodd, grants the schools, organizations and cities all around the country who are lined up and ready to screen BULLY, including the National Education Association and the Cincinnati School District, the opportunity to share this educational tool with their children. Of course, the latter organizations always had that option , but what good is accepting parental permission slips without the prospect of getting the full ticket price as a result? Sigh. I know this is a “Forget it, Jake, it’s Chinatown” moment if ever there was one, but to come to work every day and see so many otherwise smart, savvy and skeptical industry observers and pundits just pass along such cynical, craven marketing spin for months without ever communicating Harvey’s obvious calculations to their readers — to treat the Bully ratings saga as a legitimate cause — is a just a total failure. It’s a total embarrassment . Taking nothing away from the film or the consequences of bullying, what kind of a complacent creep do you have to be to smilingly shovel so much of these people’s bullshit? Or to keep taking the MPAA at its grotesque face value? Or to accept some bullied teenager(s) carrying the banner for a movie on behalf of the most notorious bully of the modern Hollywood era? Or to pull a paycheck every day for publicizing such bald-faced lies? Puke. Anyway, the entertainment industrial complex wins again. Whatever. So much for Good Friday. [via Deadline ] Follow S.T.

Australian rapper plans to release her debut The New Classic in June. By Nadeska Alexis Iggy Azalea Photo: MTV News Iggy Azalea made quite a splash with her fall 2011 mixtape, Ignorant Art — not to mention the risqu
We’ve got a slew of A-list nudity this week as Miramax wallows in its awards-show glory by releasing its greatest Oscar tits- er, hits- on Blu-ray. Among he skintastic titles are Frida (2002), featuring Salma Hayek nude and lesbian, The Piano (1993), starring Holly Hunter ‘s brown eye, The English Patient (1996) with nude stars Juliette Binoche and Kristin Scott-Thomas , Cold Mountain (2003), starring Nicole Kidman ‘s milky-white mountains, and Shakespeare in Love (1998), with Gwyneth Paltrow naked. Phew! Plus, they’re not Oscar winners, but you’ll still be rubbing your little bald man as Mischa Barton goes lesbo in You and I (2011) and Naoko Watanabe bares her rising suns in the bloody Japanese flick Outrage: Way of the Yakuza (2011), nude on DVD and Blu-ray: Bisexual artist Frida Kahlo liked to paint herself naked. Mr Skin doesn’t know a lot about art, but he knows what he likes. Starring as the sexy sketcher in Frida (2002) is South of the Border bombshell Salma Hayek . The story follows her life from a crippling bus crash to her volatile marriage to the Mexican muralist who couldn’t keep his paintbrush in his pants, Diego Rivera. Along the way there are a lot of girl-on-girl good times and artist’s models stripping for the carnal canvas, like Lucia Bravo . Ashley Judd nearly flops out of her flapper dress during a scene where she and Salma suck face. Overall, Frida is Salma’s exhibition, and her palette is fully exposed. She’s mute and has a tight little bod, so Holly Hunter is the perfect wife in the critically acclaimed film The Piano (1993). Too bad that she’s stuck with stodgy Sam O’Neill in an arranged marriage. The guy doesn’t even bother to carry the piano she brings all the way from Scotland. He just leaves it on the beach of his remote New Zealand home, leaving Hunter to take a long hike every time she wants to tickle the ivories. Fortunately, lecherous Harvey Keitel wants to tickle her ovaries. He makes a deal to own the piano and then blackmails the sexy gal into some sexual favors–which, in best romance novel fashion, soon leads to love and tragedy. Fast forward to the 1 hour, 3-minute mark, where T&A meets A&E as Holly decks us with her fine ass (and a bit of furburgerage) before tickling us with her titties. Ralph Fiennes plays a horribly burned man on his deathbed at the close of WWII in the critically-lauded film The English Patient (1997). But wait- don’t give up on this tear-jerker yet, because if you do you’ll miss out on a real jerk-off opportunity. While Fiennes may not be exactly attractive to the ladies as a scabby piece of human charcoal, he has a vivid memory. In flashbacks he recalls former lovers like Kristin Scott-Thomas , who does a full frontal getting into, then out of, the bath and shows breasts in a post-sex scene, and Juliette Binoche , who shows a breast in a brief, dark sex scene. Yes, be patient with this one, and you’ll be rewarded in your English royal jewels. In Cold Mountain (2003), wounded confederate soldier Inman ( Jude Law ) struggles to escape from the Civil War and return intact to his beloved belle Ada ( Nicole Kidman ). His lover girl spends her days wanting and waiting while trying to save her family’s farm with the help of “There ain’t no man better than me” ranch hand Ruby, played by ruddy-faced, plumply packed Ren
Rebecca Gayheart and Grey’s Anatomy star Eric Dane have welcomed their second child together, another girl they’ve named Georgia Geraldine! Gayheart, 40, and Dane, 39, have been married since 2004, and are already parents to daughter Billie Beatrice, who was born in March 2010. “Rebecca Gayheart and husband Eric Dane welcomed Georgia Geraldine Dane on Dec. 28, just in time for the New Year!” the pair’s rep says . “Both mom and baby girl are happy and healthy, Billie is thrilled to be a big sister, and dad is getting ready to live in a house full of ladies!” In August, an expectant Rebecca Gayheart shared with People some details about going through what was a more relaxed second pregnancy. “What’s made it different is that I’m very focused on Billie … so I’m not very focused on [the pregnancy]. I’m not as neurotic,” the actress said. She also confessed to readying herself for the obstacles that awaited the couple as they prepared to parent two kids under the age of 2: “I’ve heard that’s very challenging. But I think I’m up for it. Eventually it’s going to be great because they’ll be very close in age, and to each other, hopefully.” Congratulations to the happy, growing family! [Photo: WENN.com]
Brock Lesnar went down hard against kickboxer Alistair Overeem in the first round at UFC 141 last night. A few minutes later, he announced his retirement. The former heavyweight champion finished his own meteoric mixed martial arts career on a losing note at Friday’s Ultimate Fighting Championship event. Lesnar retired from the UFC after Overeem stopped him with one vicious kick to the body at 2:26 of the first round in their much-touted heavyweight bout. “Tonight is the last time you’ll see me in the octagon,” Lesnar said . That leaves the UFC heading into 2012 without its biggest star. Brock Lesnar Retires Even though he fought only seven times in the UFC, Lesnar was a pay-per-view audience magnet because of his compelling past as a WWE “champion.” He reigned as heavyweight champ, headlined UFC 100, generated the most Internet traffic of any MMA fighter and actually has fights left on his contract. UFC President Dana White and Chairman Lorenzo Fertitta took the high road with Lesnar even after the fighter blew off the post-fight news conference. White said, “When a guy decides he wants to retire, you let him do it. This is not, ‘Go hit a ball with a stick for the next two or three years on your way out.'” “This is the real deal, guys. Â We’ll figure it out.” He said regardless of how many fights Lesnar has on his contract, “Doesn’t matter. If he’s done, he’s done.”
Dear Bossip , All I want to say is that I made a lot of mistakes in my life far as men. I’m 27 and have a bright future. I work part-time and go to school part-time. I want to be an officer of the law and then a DEA Agent. Far as them goals go I’m doing just fine and I’m about to graduate next year. My love life is going so wrong and what I’m doing is wrong. I love older guys and is married to one who is 59 years old, but we are separated, but I left him to be with a married man who is 51 years old and has been married for at least 31 years. Hell, he left his wife to be with me. We now live in apartment together after we both left our houses to be with each other. It’s been ups and downs because of how our spouses feel about us leaving. To make a long story short. His wife didn’t know that that we was living together at first because he lied and told her he wanted to be by himself. I lied and told my husband that I was living alone. What happened was that I went through his phone and found out that he was going to church with his wife (which we go to the same church that I’m a member of and I haven’t been in awhile because my ex goes there), texting her that he loves her and misses his family. So, I text her after saying that that he lives with me and we just got done having sex, which was true. We kind of been caught before with each other numerous of times mostly by her and once by my husband and he still wanted to see me. So, I told him what I did and he was livid about me texting her from his phone and we ended up back together. Even though he don’t go to church with his wife now. We went through each other phones and I seen a text saying, “I hope God put us back together.” Now, his excuses for telling his wife this and the first text is because he wanted to be politically correct (Which he trying to go for chairman at his job). Then it was that he was trying to see if it was worth leaving his marriage for. Now he trying to be-friend her so she won’t tell nobody at his job because they work together because he want the chairman’s position. I told him if he wants to go back to his wife then go back with her but he says he wants to be with me. He been away for about 3 months now and says if I wanted to be with her I would’ve been with her. I asked him to stop texting his wife that and if he want be friends with her then do that without the extra. He say he was doing that because he do misses his family (his kids are grown now) and he feels guilty about leaving her like that because now she has the house and she act like she don’t know what to do because he usually pays all the bill and the landscaping and blah! blah! blah! Throughout the years he been married he cheated on her since day one. I’ve only cheated once since I’ve been married, which is not good on both our behalf. I married for a different reason and he has his own which don’t make it right. I’m ready for a divorce and to start over right without drama (not to say with him) and lies and deceit, but with someone in the future who gone love me right and I love them the same way. Don’t get me wrong, I do love the man I’m with and he says he love me but I know just because you love someone you don’t got to be with each other. Especially when you both played the game and I feel like he still playing. I don’t know what he still telling his wife because I don’t go through his phone no more. He say he wouldn’t tell her that no more and he wants me to be his wife. That’s not the reason why I don’t go though his phone no more. I just feel like whatever he do that’s on him. I turned my focus on school and graduating and getting my life together. I want to be with him, but he has not talk to no divorce lawyer yet even though he said he was about a month ago. My thing is if he did it to his wife he would do it to me and which he did technically. Also what he told me about him and his wife must not of been truthful. What should a girl to do? – Love Older Men Dear Ms. Love Older Men , Why after reading your letter I felt like I was reading the script for some 1900 period piece in the south? My lawd, the language and texture of your sentences. WHEW! And, girl, what school do you attend? I had to re-read your letter just so I could understand it. Therefore, I’ve deduced (look it up I don’t’ have time to explain it) and I’m certain that you attend a technical school. How in the hell can you say you want to be a DEA Agent and you can’t even properly form a sentence with proper English skills? Ba-by, you better leave those old men you’re frolicking with alone and get you some education. And, I mean a real four-year institution that is accredited and has some real professors with real college students. And, after reading your letter and the mess and drama you’ve created with your life, and the lives of others, uhm, sweetie, I don’t think a career in law enforcement will suit you. It’s obvious you can’t make sound judgments. Have you thought about a career in maintenance or perhaps hotel hospitality? Now, let’s get down to business. You are a hotmess.org. What the hell are you doing married to a 59 year old man and you’re 27 years old, yet you’re already separated and you’re laying up with a 51 year old man? Chile, you women with this, “Looking For Daddy” complex and you’re collecting his social security check. I can’t! But, I want you to recognize something and I hope a light bulb flickers inside that dark dome of yours. Both of you left your homes (“houses” as you say) and live in an apartment. (* – *) Blank stare at you. Then you say he left his wife to be with you, yet his wife didn’t even know he was living with you until you texted her. (Girl, you truly are showing your age. You’re not 27, you’re 15. You texted his wife instead of calling her. LMBAO!) So, explain to me how did he leave his wife to be with you and yet he’s still married, and he told his wife that he wanted to be alone. So, therefore, he didn’t leave his wife for you because if he did, then he would have told his wife he was leaving her for another woman. (* – *) Blank stare at you. Then, you discover that he and his wife attend church services together every week, and you attend the same church, but haven’t been in a while. (* – *) Blank stare at you. Excuse me, ma’am, but what small ass backwoods town do you all live in? Are you sure that you all are not related? I can’t today. Really, I can’t! I’m really curious to know how can you work part-time, attend school part-time, and keep up bull-ish full-time? LMBAO! I see I’m going to have to open up a few satellite all-women’s academies in small backwoods towns: The Academy For Dumbass Women Who Are Looking For Daddy And Sleeping With Other Women’s Husbands . I’m going to offer you my advice and stop letting you have it because I know the readers are going to have a field day with you and your letter. I suggest you leave the married man you are sleeping with alone. It’s obvious he is not leaving his wife for you. They are still married. He’s told you, and her, that he misses his wife and he hopes God puts them back together again. (* – *) Blank stare at him. Girl, let that man go and return to his wife because whatever problems and issues they have they are not your concern. Let him go work out his mess with his wife, and he needs to leave you out of it. But, I gather in about a few more weeks, or the next two months, he’ll be back with his wife. Trust me. I see all and know all. I then suggest you speak with your husband and figure out the next few steps for you two. It’s obvious you two should get a divorce. So, start the paperwork. Move on with your life and stop f***king up other people’s lives. You are truly abackwoods-ishstarter.com. I’m going to need you to focus on you! Focus on school! Focus at your job! It’s obvious you need a lot of therapy and counseling. Yes, ma’am. You need some intense therapy on self-worth and self-esteem. You have no regard for anyone other than yourself. It’s sad and pathetic. I see why no young dude, or anyone your age will be bothered with you, and you have to seek out older men because someone your age would have gone upside your head by now. Nobody has time for all this bull-ish! Now ask yourself these questions: Why do you find older men appealing? What are you looking for in older men? Is it comfort, stability, or responsibility? Do you value others? Do you care that when you sleep with another’s woman’s husband that you are not only interrupting her life, but other’s in his family? I don’t care if he’s been cheating on her since day one, what does that have to do with you? But, you’re young and silly because your letter reads like that of a chicken-head girl in high school, and yes I said chicken-head girl. You know what, I can’t do you right now because I feel like momma Braxton from the Braxton Family Values when she was scolding Tamar, and I want to slap the piss out of you right now. It’s hurtful to know that you didn’t have a father figure in your life to treat you with love, respect, and dignity. So, therefore you will know how to have love, respect, and have dignity for yourself, and to help you recognize true authentic love from a man. It’s also hurtful to know that your mother didn’t share with you about the sanctity of marriage, and that when you make that commitment you are in it for the long haul and not for the moment and thrill of it. And, that you don’t sleep with another woman’s husband. Girl, not only are you violating your marriage, but someone else’s. Do you see the damage you’re doing? Do you recognize the hurt and pain you’re causing? Please wake up and stop eating possum and drinking that cedar wood liquor. It’s not good for you. – Terrance Dean Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think?
