Oscar nominee will appear on Nick at Nite’s ‘Hollywood Heights’ this summer. By Jocelyn Vena James Franco Photo: Neilson Barnard/ Getty Images At this point, few things James Franco does in his career surprise anyone. But his latest gig might be an exception. The Oscar-nominated actor has agreed to appear on the Nick at Nite telenovela “Hollywood Heights.” The gig was announced by the network on Wednesday, but further details about his appearance on the show were not released. The show will kick off in June, according to Vulture , and like any good telenovela, it will air five nights a week. Based on a Mexican soap opera, the show revolves around a shy girl who befriends a rock star (her crush) after winning a songwriting competition and ultimately becomes a pop star herself. This is the latest of many unusual side hustles the actor has acquired recently. Aside from attending college at several prestigious universities across the country over the last few years, the actor has also appeared several times on the small screen since he bid his role as Daniel Desario on “Freaks and Geeks” goodbye 12 years ago. He also appeared on the soap opera “General Hospital,” where he played an artist with mob ties. His character’s name? Simply, Franco. In 2011, he hosted the Academy Awards alongside Anne Hathaway. While he had been nominated for his work in “127 Hours” that year, his performance as the show’s host was met with mixed reviews. He also appeared on the NBC game show “Minute to Win It” along with Aron Ralston, whom he portrayed in “127 Hours.” They played to benefit a charity. He is a published author and a film critic and worked behind the lens on several projects, including 2011’s “Three’s Company: The Drama,” based on the hit sitcom from the 1970s, which was screened at Sundance that year. In addition to several multimedia projects, he shot music videos for R.E.M. for their tracks “Blue” and “That Someone Is You.” He also appeared in a music video for his own musical project, Kalup and Franco . While he pursues some of his more unusual side projects, he is also attached to several movies, including “Maladies,” “Lovelace,” “Oz: The Great and Powerful” and the currently in production “Spring Breakers,” with Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens.

Ravi could get up to 10 years in jail for spying on his roommate, Tyler Clementi. By Gil Kaufman Tyler Clementi Photo: Facebook A jury found former Rutgers University student Dharun Ravi guilty of hate crimes and invasion of privacy on Friday (March 16), bringing to an end a case that helped spark a national debate on cyberbullying. Ravi was accused of setting up a webcam to spy on his roommate, Tyler Clementi , as Clementi engaged in a consensual sexual encounter with another man in the pair’s Rutgers dorm room. Clementi leaped to his death from the George Washington Bridge in New York three days after learning that Ravi viewed the encounter and, according to testimony, invited others to watch and discuss what he saw online. According to The New York Times, in addition to the hate crimes, the jury found Ravi guilty of tampering with evidence and witnesses because of his efforts to change Twitter and text messages in which he had encouraged others to watch the webcam footage. Ravi, 20, faced 15 counts of invasion of privacy, bias intimidation, tampering with evidence and a witness and hindering apprehension. The jury concluded that Ravi had not intended to intimidate Clementi on the first night that he secretly switched on the webcam to watch his roommate’s actions. But they concluded that Clementi had reason to believe that he was targeted because he was gay (based on the language in some of the texts), and on one count, the jury found that Ravi knew Clementi, 18, would feel intimidated by his actions. Because he was found guilty on at least one question of whether his actions rose to the level of bias discrimination, Ravi could face the maximum penalty of up to 10 years in jail and deportation to his native India. “These acts were purposeful, they were intentional and they were planned,” prosecutor Julia L. McClure told the jury on the first day of the trial, which lasted three weeks and concluded with two days of deliberation by the jury. Later in the trial, she told the jury that Ravi “was bothered by Tyler Clementi’s sexual orientation.” In a rare instance, almost none of the facts in the case were in dispute, as Ravi’s lawyers agreed that their client had set up the webcam and then gone to a friend’s room and viewed Clementi kissing the unidentified man. They also did not deny that Ravi sent Twitter and text messages to others describing what he’d seen and urging them to watch a second viewing. Ravi’s attorneys painted their client as an immature college student who acted thoughtlessly and made a mistake, but denied that he’d been spurred by homophobia. “He hasn’t lived long enough to have any experience with homosexuality or gays,” attorney Steven Altman said during closing arguments. “He doesn’t know anything about it. He just graduated high school.” Clementi’s suicide set off a national debate about bullying and intimidation of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender youth the resulted in public messages of support from everyone from openly gay talk show host Ellen DeGeneres to singer Ciara, “America’s Next Top Model” personality Jay Manuel, President Obama, “One Tree Hill” actress Sophia Bush and “Harry Potter” star Daniel Radcliffe .

In the latest issue of Maxim , Jennifer Love Hewitt utters the understatement of the century. Asked about her favorite body part, the actress gets right to it with the magazine and replies: “I like my boobs. They’ve always served me well. They’re good.” VERY, VERY good, we’d say of those 36C snack trays. Get a closer look for yourself in the following photo or on the official poster for Hewitt’s next project, The Client List . On that upcoming Lifetime drama, which premiere April 8, JLH portrays the head of a brothel, which meant a unique way of burning calories to prepare for the role: pole dancing lessons. “It’s a great way to stay in touch with your sexuality,” she says. “I also love to cook, so I can have a cake in the oven while I do a pole dance.” Finally, yes, the actress admits, she still vagazzales, an art she first explained during an appearance on Lopez Tonight . “It’s where you stick Swarovski crystals on the female area to add a little glitz and glamour. I actually named it that because it’s like BeDazzling for your hookah. “The fun part of being a girl is that there are little beauty things you can do to make yourself feel special. I can walk around all day and think, ‘Nobody has any idea that I have a sparkly secret in my pants right now.'”
This promo pic dropped 2 weeks ago…but as someone who doesn’t run the Jennifer Love Hewitt fan club, I don’t really keep track of her…but I do know this pic screams one thing and one thing only….if only Jennifer Love could be photoshopped all the fucking time….she’d be worth looking at….but she’s not so I forget she exists…you know since her metabolism slowed down and her ass caught up to her disproportionate tits….she kinda lost relevancy…. So the new show is called the Client List and I assume she plays a whore….and as a whore….they had to get good cleavage shots out of her….and I predict the show will only work if it is shot from the waist up and from a good angle so that they don’t get the rest of her thickness in there to ruin it….
Looks like it’s official: Snooki is pregnant . God help us. We have Jionni LaValle to blame for getting Snooki pregnant. Having dated for about a year at this point, the tanned couple is expecting its first child together. “She’s about 3-4 months along now,” a source tells E!’s Mark Malkin, as reliable a person as there is in the celeb gossip field. So why hasn’t she confirmed it? She doesn’t want to jinx it She wants to get PAID The 24-year-old Jersey Shore cast memnber (real name Nicole Polizzi) is hoping to turn the pregnancy into money-making deals, according to the New York Post . She’s also deeply superstitious about adhering to the rule of reaching the 12-week mark before breaking the news. Now that it’s passed, expect it imminently. Earlier this month, Snooki shot down Star magazine claims that she was expecting . But she lied, according to E! and the Post , and is totally with child. Eeeek. Snooki has always said she dreamed of being a mom one day. “I want two, a boy and a girl,” she said in 2010. “I’m going to name them Isabella and Frankie.” No word yet on whether it will be Isabella or Frankie arriving this year, but the world’s collective I.Q. may well drop a couple of points. Girl is not bright. Or sober.
