The Real Reason Kate Middleton Refused Peanuts …

Does passing on peanuts really mean Kate Middleton is pregnant ? The pregnancy rumor mill began turning hard last week when the 29-year-old Duchess declined to sample peanut paste during a UNICEF visit to Denmark. Although Kate Middleton is not allergic to peanuts, pregnant women are often advised to avoid peanut products to prevent allergies in their babies-to-be. So … Naturally, coupled with the belly touching seen below, this sparked major royal baby speculation. But a royal insider says (shockingly) it may not be the case. “She’s not comfortable eating in front of cameras,” the insider said. “What if she didn’t like it and made a face? That expression would then be on every newspaper.” What a fair, valid and seemingly obvious explanation. No fun! A spokesman for the couple says that the policy is “to never confirm or deny [pregnancy] rumors,” but a palace insider insists: “If and when there is an announcement to make, officially, it will be made by the palace as soon as it’s safe to.” Long story short … don’t hold your breath for it anytime soon.

New Snow White and the Huntsman Art Suggests Alice-Like Tone

Set photos of an armored Kristen Stewart and the star’s own description of Snow White and the Huntsman ‘s bloody edge had me thinking this could be the more transgressive of the two Snow White projects in the works (the other being Tarsem’s newly titled Mirror, Mirror , starring Lily Collins and Armie Hammer). The first official SWATH banner art, however, suggests something a bit more kid-friendly, even Alice in Wonderland -esque. Or am I reading too much into the fantastical, Photoshopped flora and fauna swirling around Stewart, Chris Hemsworth , and the disembodied head of evil queen Charlize Theron ?

Kristen Stewart Hurt On ‘Snow White’ Set?

‘It’s a wrap for today. Kristen has hurt herself,’ co-star on the film tweeted. By Jocelyn Vena Kristin Stewart on the set of “Snow White and the Huntsman” (file) Photo: Splash News Kristen Stewart was reportedly hurt on the set of “Snow White and the Huntsman,” halting production until Friday. While details about her injury remain a mystery as of press time, her co-star Max Manganello , who plays one of the duke’s soldiers in the film, announced it on Twitter. The tweet has since been taken down, but according to E! News , Manganello had this to say about the injury on Tuesday: “It’s a wrap for today. Kristen has hurt herself … nothing scary. We shoot on Friday.” A rep for the movie studio had not responded to MTV News’ request for comment by press time and little else is known about Stewart’s condition. Stewart has been busy shooting the film abroad. In late September, she was spotted in Pembrokeshire, Wales, filming a battle scene, and days later she was photographed drenched and wearing a gown on the back of a white horse. The film is expected to open on June 1, 2012 and also features Charlize Theron (the Evil Queen), Chris Hemsworth (the Huntsman) and Sam Claflin (Prince Charming). The story centers on the struggle between Snow White and the Evil Queen, who, jealous of Snow White’s beauty, wants to destroy her. The catch is that Snow White has been training with the Huntsman, who has also been ordered to kill her. And in true fairy-tale form, Prince Charming is enamored with Snow White. “It’s not a little girl sitting by a well with little tweety birds telling her what to do and where to go,” Stewart told MTV News of her character. “[The costume] makes you feel kind of strong occasionally, sometimes, but I kind of feel tiny, my pinhead sticks out of these enormous things.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Snow White and the Huntsman.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

For Your (Re-)Consideration: Freddy Got Fingered

The Freddy Got Fingered rehabilitation campaign that commenced in earnest last year with actor/writer/director Tom Green extends now to the comedy critic ranks: ” Freddy Got Fingered isn’t a terrible movie — it’s just baffling and non-formulaic. It takes sight gags that feel like they could come from a silent film and it amps them up to utterly ridiculous proportions. It’s downright visionary for Green to find a dead deer on the side of the road and put it on like a cape, or for Green to lick the exposed bone after his friend (Harland Williams) suffers a brutal skateboarding injury, or for Green to manually stimulate a horse while crying out, ‘I’m a farmer, Daddy!’ Yes, it’s funny to jerk off of a horse, but it’s also anti-comedy, comparable to Andy Kaufman or ’70s Steve Martin. It just came out in a time in which anti-comedy wasn’t ringing many people’s bells.” Discuss? [ Splitsider ]

Letter from Toronto: Coppola’s Twixt Is Stubborn Old-Coot Filmmaking; Stillman’s Damsels Hardly Dazzles

Francis Ford Coppola’s Twixt is kind of stupid and kind of amazing, a horror movie-fairytale hybrid with an inscrutable plot, some gorgeous images and two brief sections shot in 3-D. This isn’t the great film Coppola’s devotees have been waiting for him to make. But it’s infused with more of Coppola’s spirit, as we know it, than Youth Without Youth and Tetro , both of which were sluggish and self-serious. Twixt is a bit of a mess, but it’s also joyful and wicked, with a great, roly-poly sense of humor about itself. In its imaginative WTF -ness, it reminds me of Bob Dylan’s gloriously whacked-out Masked and Anonymous , just the sort of thing you’d expect a crackpot genius left to his own devices to make.
