Just last month we were hearing rumors that Nick Young and Iggy Azalea were secretly married . Today, Iggy is probably awfully glad she and her LA Laker fiance didn't actually take the plunge. A video apparently recorded by Young's teammate D'Angelo Russell is going viral this morning, and Iggy is reportedly not happy with the content – with good reason. The clip shows Young and Russell in a hotel room, presumably for a Lakers road game. Prompted by Russell, Young boasts about hooking up with a 19-year-old while he was 30. It's a problematic conversation, as Young turned 30 in June of 2015 – the same month that he got engaged to Iggy . The video also shows Young seeming to admit that he considered hooking up with Amber Rose, but eventually decided against it. Nick and Iggy have been dating since 2013, but it looks like they may be through thanks to Russell's scandalous video. “Hmmm…i see D’Angelo Russell is trending… I actually liked his film. Thanks bro,” Azalea tweeted today. It's possible she's being sarcastic, but most fans are taking the tweet as Iggy's public confirmation that she and Nick are done. As for Russell, he's likely regretting that he filmed Nick without his knowledge and allowed the clip to leak online. According to Deadspin, the point guard's teammates won't even speak to him due to his betrayal of Young. Watch the full video below:
The long-awaited comedy The Bronze finally debuts in theaters this weekend after debuting more than a year ago at Sundance, and though star Melissa Rauch used a body double for her nudity, the wild fully nude sex scene in the film at the hour and twenty minute mark makes this film more than worth the price of admission! Here’s where to see the rest of this weekend’s stars in the buff…… read more
Robert Johnson Continues To Defend Zoe Saldana’s Portrayal Of Nina Simone A couple weeks ago, we reported that BET founder Bob Johnson had hopped in the phone booth and donned his cape for Zoe Saldana’s inflammatory portrayal of Nina Simone. In speaking to The Hollywood Reporter , the film’s executive producer continues to try to convince black people that they should support this garbage… Two weeks after the trailer for Nina hit the Internet and caused an outcry over Zoe Saldana’s heavily altered appearance as Nina Simone, the film’s distributor is speaking to reporters in defense of the project. Critics of Nina, a biopic from U.K.-based Ealing Studios Entertainment, have protested the casting of Saldana, a light-skinned actress of Afro-Latina descent, to portray the legendary high priestess of soul, claiming that Simone’s physical appearance as a dark-skinned black woman had a major impact on her life and career. “It’s unfortunate that African-Americans are talking about this in a way that hearkens back to how we were treated when we were slaves,” says RLJ Entertainment founder and chair Robert L. Johnson, who also founded BET. “The slave masters separated light-skinned blacks from dark-skinned blacks, and some of that social DNA still exists today among many black people.” *eye-roll emoji* Now, in his one-on-one interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Johnson cites arguments against Saldana’s skin tone as akin to in-group discriminatory practices like the brown paper bag test, wherein certain black community gatherings would only admit individuals whose skin was lighter than the bag. “That’s where some of this comes from, when you hear people saying that a light-skinned woman can’t play a dark-skinned woman when they’re both clearly of African descent,” he says. “To say that if I’m gonna cast a movie, I’ve gotta hold a brown paper bag up to the actresses and say, ‘Oh sorry, you can’t play her.’ Who’s to decide when you’re black enough?” Johnson clearly is passionate about the subject and had plenty more to say regarding the backlash. “As an African-American, I will gladly engage anyone on this question of should we be talking about how light or how dark you should be to play a role,” he says. “Many people who are talking about it don’t even realize what they’re getting into. Imagine if I were to do a biopic about Lena Horne, who’s obviously light-skinned, or Dorothy Dandridge. Would it be fair if I put up a sign that said ‘No black women apply’? That would be ridiculous. Black Americans should know better than to have this discussion over a creative project. We’re not talking about white against black. We’re talking about black against black.” This fool goes on to say… “Make the judgment on the talent of the actors, make the judgment on the writing, but don’t make it on whether or not Zoe Saldana is as black as Nina. You can always say, ‘Gee, I can find somebody who’s blacker,’” Johnson says. “Let’s talk about [the film] in terms of giving talented African-Americans a chance to play roles that they’re qualified to play.” Clearly Bobby Boy missed the ENTIRE point. If Zoe was gonna play a lighter-skinned, thinner-nosed version of Nina Simone, then cool. BUT DON’T DARKEN HER F***IN’ SKIN AND PUT A FAKE NOSE ON HER AND THEN PREACH TO US ABOUT WHO IS ENTITLED TO PLAY WHO!
10 Cloverfield Lane hits theaters today, and I sat down with the star of the film, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, as well as director Dan Trachtenberg, for a closer look. The movie is about a woman named Michelle who survives a car accident after leaving her fiancé, only to wake up and find herself in an underground bunker […]
Since they’re likely going the 21 Jump Street route with this new Baywatch movie, I suppose an Alexandra Daddario nude scene wouldn’t be completely outside the realm of possibility. Just like a decade ago when Wedding Crashers made a ton of money and the studio decided everything should be R-rated, this film will hopefully benefit the most from such a lenient directive and let Alexandra bust out those gorgeous double-Ds!… read more
It's tough to make a living in Hollywood, and it only gets tougher with age. That goes doubly for women in the film industry, who are often forced to conceal their age in order to avoid being automatically ruled out for certain roles. In 2012, Jessica Chastain was caught lying about her age . Last year, Rebel Wilson admitted to doing the same . Both women are now at points in their career where they can confess to misleading a few casting directors and still find work. However, they might have never gotten the chance to establish themselves if they hadn't fibbed a bit on their resumes. So when we present the following list of celebs who have been accused of lying about their age, we do it not to shame them, but, well … simply because it's fun to guess how old they really are. Jump into the gallery below for a list of stars who may have turned 29 a half dozen times. Just don't judge them to harshly. After all, sometimes you have to play with the truth in order to get to the top – and just about every politician on Earth is guilty of far worse fabrications than these. 1. Blake Lively – 28 Blake Lively says she’s 28 years old. Rumors that she’s lying about her age have haunted her since her Gossip Girl days. 2. Margot Robbie – 25 Margot Robbie claims to be 25, but many fans have pointed out that she looks a bit older. Hey, that Australian sun will do a number on your skin. 3. Lindsay Lohan – 29 LiLo certainly looks older than her 29 years. The sad part is, in this case, we don’t think she’s lying about her age as much as we think her lifestyle has added at least 11 years to it in terms of mileage. 4. Adele – 27 Maybe it’s her old school style, but some folks think Adele’s latest album should be titled 35-ish. 5. Coco – 36 Coco says she’s 36, and frankly, we believe her. Hell, there are far more unbelievable things about her body than her age. 6. Bella Thorne – 18 Obviously, Bella is gorgeous, but does she look 18? We suspect her parents might’ve misled some casting directors to give Bella a leg up when she was a child star. View Slideshow
On February 10, The Hollywood Gossip published an article claiming that there was reason to believe that Johnny Depp may have become romantically involved with his wife, Amber Heard, while he was still involved with longtime partner Vanessa Paradis. There is no factual basis to this claim. We regret the error, and we would like to issue our sincerest apologies to Mr. Depp, Ms. Heard, and Ms. Paradis. The speculation in the article was based on comments that Mr. Depp made in a February 5 interview with People magazine in which he described meeting Ms. Heard on the set of the 2011 Hunter S. Thompson adaptation, The Rum Diary . We misinterpreted his comments and arrived at the inaccurate conclusion that he and Heard began dating before he had separated from Paradis. In truth, Depp has stated that his romantic relationship with Heard began not on set, but rather during the film’s press tour, at which time, he had already separated from Paradis. We also commented that Depp may want to steer clear of future projects co-starring young blonde women, and we now realize that the remark was in poor taste. In summation, there is no reason to believe Mr. Depp is guilty of any infidelity in his current or past relationships, and we apologize for stating otherwise.
