Spike Lee Defends Controversial “Chiraq” Movie Title Spike Lee is Ray Charles to the critiques… Via HuffingtonPost Movie director Spike Lee, known for films that deal frankly with racial issues, appeared in Chicago on Thursday to defend his planned movie about the city, after its reported title, “Chiraq,” was criticized by local politicians. Speaking at a South Side church and surrounded by African-American mothers carrying pictures of children killed in street violence, Lee said artists hold up a mirror to society and are not afraid to tell the truth. “We have to stop the madness,” Lee said. “This is insane.” He said people who know nothing about it have been expressing opinions about the film. Lee referred to the movie’s “so-called title,” but did not say if “Chiraq” would be the title and did not take questions. “Chiraq” is street slang that compares the nation’s third largest city to the war zones of the Middle East. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, U.S. Senator Dick Durbin, and local alderman Anthony Beale have expressed concern over the title, with Beale calling it “insulting.” Chicago recorded 407 murders in 2014, far ahead of the 328 recorded in the larger city of New York. Chicago has long fought a reputation for violence, enhanced by the mythology surrounding Prohibition-era gangster Al Capone. Many criticized Spike for negatively affecting Chicago’s tourism by releasing a film with such an intimidating title. Lee said he was not concerned about Chicago politics or tourism. “This is not about Chicago losing business,” Lee said. Referring to the grieving mothers around him, Lee said, “No one wants to be a member of this club right here.” Lee cited news reports that 14 people had been shot in the city the day before, with three killed. How do you feel about the term “Chiraq”? Is it the “reflection of society” as Spike claims, or is it a pejorative term for a city that has the blood of black people running in the streets?
During the school year, I am a teacher. And as most teachers know, students are constantly asking for positive reinforcement. The millennial generation thrives off of rewards. In my class, a reward might mean getting out of class five minutes early. But a recent “good behavior award,” took a different shape at a West Virginia high school. Students, who were determined to be praised for their hard work, convinced their teacher to show 50 Shades of Grey . The Hampshire High School teacher, who must live in a cave, claimed to not know what the film was about. Principal Jeff Woofter reported that the film was turned off after about 10 minutes when the assistant principal walked by and saw what the class was watching. Not only did this teacher eff up by showing big-budget, mainstream porn; movies of any kind are prohibited in the classroom. At this time, it is unclear if students or teacher will face any punishment. The first installment of 50 Shades opened this year on Valentine’s Day. The dates for the next two sequels have been released for 2016 and 2017. View Slideshow: Dakota Johnson, Jamie Dornan Naked Fifty Shades of Grey Photos
For those of you who don’t know…I am not a high school drop out…but I am someone who never got into Film School back in the 90s because my story was a bout a high powered exec and husband who falls takes an interest in a homeless person outside his office and eventually invites them to live with him as a charitable gesture…without realizing homeless people are crazy…only to get sucked into the homeless person life because he actually hates his upper middle class existence and in the process kills his wife, cuts her up and leaves her in garbage bags on the street corner in some drug rage…it was filled with hardcore graphic sex and good times…but in the 90s….they weren’t down…and said to myself…well I can’t make movies because I am a loser…but one day…thanks to humans being perverts…we will have mainstream movies with sex…and it’s happened a bunch of times…but this one that is at Cannes this year, which is the most intense of Film Fests…is just next fucking level…at least the movie posters are… The story of LOVE 3D according to IMDB: A sexual melodrama about a boy and a girl and another girl. It’s a love story, which celebrates sex in a joyous way. According to the Cannes festival: January the 1st, early morning. The telephone rings. Murphy wakes up next to his young wife and 2-year-old child. He listens to his voicemail: Electra’s mother, sick with worry, wants to know whether he has heard from her daughter. Electra’s been missing for a long time. She’s afraid something really bad has happened to her. Over the course of a long rainy day, Murphy finds himself alone in his apartment, reminiscing about the greatest love affair of his life, his two years with Electra. A burning passion full of promises, games, excesses and mistakes… Starring Aomi MUYOCK and Klara KRISTIN….

With the release of Avengers: Age of Ultron just over one week away, the film’s A-list cast has been making the rounds to promote a sequel that really needs no promotion. Usually, this means playing Family Feud with Jimmy Kimmel and answering softball questions from the entertainment editor of the Palookaville Post, but earlier today, British journalist Krishnan Guru-Murthy thought he’d take the opportunity to interrogate Robert Downey Jr. about his difficult past, and…well, it went about as well as you would think: Robert Downey Jr. Walks Out of Interview Downey keeps his cool admirably as the Guru-Murthy awkwardly segues from “How cool is Iron Man?” fluff to “What was it like to be an incarcerated drug addict?” hardball stuff. If watch closely, you can see RDJ struggling to suppress his rage, and he gets in some pretty funny jabs before your storming out. (“Your foot’s starting to jump a little bit, you better get to your next question.” “It’s getting a little Diane Sawyer in here.”) Of course, this isn’t the first time that things between Iron Man and the press have gotten a bit “steely,” as Guru-Muthy lamely tweeted. Last year, Downey complimented a reporter’s breasts and referred to feminism as “make believe” in an interview that was every bit as awkward as it sounds. As much as we love RDJ unchained, we’re gonna have to encourage him to tone it down for the next few stops on the promo tour. You don’t wanna leave the public with a bunch of interviews that are more entertaining than the film you’re plugging. View Slideshow: 23 Celebs Who Did Time Behind Bars
The devastatingly gorgeous Laura Jacobs made quite an impression the very first time we laid eyes on her, playing the tragically doomed Laura Lee in 2010’s Daydream Nation . Having done a ton of modeling prior to her film debut, she was perfectly poised on screen and her smoky eyes seemed to burn you right through the screen. The Canadian beauty followed up that film with one-off roles on such TV shows as Almost Human and Funny or Die Presents , but her star really rose when she appeared as Desiree in the horror film Muck , a role she will soon reprise in the prequel. Acting, however, isn’t Laura’s only passion, as she has managed to parlay her training as an opera singer into a country music career, samples of which you can hear at her website . I recently chatted with Laura about her singing and acting careers, as well as her thoughts on making her nude debut in Muck . What I discovered was a down to earth girl who manages to take a lot of pride in everything she does, and whose amazing good looks—coupled with her affability and sense of humor—make her the total package!

It’s been almost four months since we first learned that Farrah Abraham is dating Simon Saran and remarkably, they’re still going strong. Or perhaps we should say, they were going strong. Farrah has a way of messing up the relationships in her life by blurting out whatever nonsense pops into her head while talking to the press, and we’re guessing Simon won’t be too pleased to find out that she talked about his masturbation habits during a recent interview. “He has my sex toys!” Farrah excitedly told Radar Online. You may remember that Farrah’s sax toys include molds of her vagina, hand, and what she refers to as her “backdoor.” She says that she and Simon are in a long-distance relationship (She lives in Austin; he’s in San Diego.), snd that the “Hand Stroker” and other such peg-in-hole devices help Simon to, um…pass the time when they’re apart. Of course, in addition to being an orifice model, Farrah is a porn star so one can’t help but wonder if Simon has checked out her film debut. “He does not have my sex tape!” Farrah says. “He watches guy comedies!” Hmmm…It seems Farrah’s not totally clear on how porn works. For most guys, if they have their mind made up to watch porn, they’re not gonna be distracted when they stumble across a censored version of the Hangover 3 on Comedy Central. Porn and comedy meet different needs, Farrah. You should know that; you’ve had plenty of experience with both. Your career centers around porn, but your private life is a comedy. Maybe you should write that a Post-It or something, so you don’t forget. Speaking of comedy, Farrah says Simon will appear on Teen Mom OG and we can look forward to seeing the two of them fight. “If there is any bickering, it’s just because we’re getting to know each other,” says Farrah. Riiiiight. We all know the first few weeks of a relationship are the toughest. Sigh. It’s tough to admit, but we kinds can’t wait for another full season of nonsensical Farrah-isms. 25 Most Cringe-Worthy Farrah Abraham Pics 1.

Rihanna Talks Style, Self-Respect Well this is…interesting. Rihanna, known for baring it all and setting it out for the ‘gram, seems to be changing her tune a bit on style and self-respect. The pop songstress has been covering up much more lately…we haven’t seen many nearly-nude looks from the Bajan Bad Gal lately. Could she be doing a complete overhaul? While talking about her upcoming film “Home” on an Australian press appearance , her style evolution came up: “I feel like my image evolves as I evolve as a woman. With growth, there’s change. My style is a reflection of my mood, my attitude wherever I am at, and you can see how it’s evolved since the beginning of my career just from my videos. And style is a huge part of that attitude.” She went on to mention that the respect that women receive from men is directly tied to the respect they show themselves: “The more we respect ourselves the more men will respect us. I have both sides to me and I think most women do. We are strong but we are very vulnerable as well.” Which is also why she loved the character she voices in the film so much: “And also, Tip is so bold. And the way she dresses and how she wears her hair is not perfect and I feel like little girls should feel comfortable being that way, being strong and being themselves.” Of course, Rih does whatever she wants to do whenever she feels like doing it — and wants little girls to feel just as bold. What do you think of what she has to say?
The 1999 comedy Office Space remains a cult classic thanks to its endlessly quotable dialogue and, of course, its memorable cast of characters: Milton, the Bobs, Lumbergh…Michael Bolton. Yes, one of the movie’s best running gags is the fact that David Herman’s gangsta-rap-loving character bristles with rage every time someone points out that he shares a name with the “no talent ass clown” Grammy-winner. Ironically, the movie is so beloved by a generation that many of us now think of Herman’s Michael Bolton whenever the name is mentioned. Fortunately, the folks at Funny or Die or here to set the record straight: Michael Bolton in Office Space Bolton has demonstrated his self-deprecating sense of humor before – most notably in the classic Lonely Island Jack Sparrow skit – but it looks like he draws the line at referring to himself as talentless. “Ass clown” is apparently fair game, though. As much as we enjoyed this clip, it was a little bittersweet, as it reminded us how much we’ve been longing for an Office Space sequel. C’mon, Mike Judge – if Zoolander 2 is actually happening, then clearly it’s not too late to re-visit the offices of Initech. Don’t let that unfortunate Dumb & Dumber sequel make you nervous. You’re better than that. Don’t make us resort to hypnosis. 16 TV & Movie Casts Who Have Come Back Together 1.
