Former Bachelorette lovebirds Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez recently split up after an 18-month engagement, but may be back together just like that. They allegedly hooked up at Ashley Hebert’s wedding. Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum married in Pasadena, Calif. on December 1, with fellow reality stars Ali and Roberto in attendance, among many others. One witness says the attractive two were “inseparable.” Indeed, Roberto moved tables just to sit next to Ali. “They started talking again a month ago,” a pal says. Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez split in November 2011; the duo first connected on the sixth season of The Bachelorette in 2010, with him winning. They allegedly left together and hooked up that night, although even if that’s true, it doesn’t necessarily mean a reconciliation is in the future for them. Says the source, “Chances of them getting back together are slim, but they had a great time that night.” Guess sometimes, one last hurrah is all you need.
LeAnn Rimes capped off an interesting week by giving some fans more than they expected while appearing at Wednesday’s NOH8 anniversary event. Hey, at least that’ll shift the conversation away from Brandi Glanville . LeAnn Rimes Nip Slip Eddie Cibrian’s better half unwittingly suffered a nip slip while attending the Hollywood soiree on behalf of the pro-equality and anti-bullying organization. Talk about showing her support … and yet needing more support. On the bright side, it did nothing to overshadow LeAnn’s attendance at the worthwhile event, and the Anne Hathaway crotch shot was totally way worse.
The first photos of Adam Lanza have been released, along with more information on the 20-year-old responsible for the Connecticut school shooting massacre yesterday. The Newtown, Conn., native was a child of the suburbs and of divorce who still lived with his mother, Nancy, in the quiet town about an hour from N.Y. City. Friday, he began his day by shooting Nancy in the face. As if that weren’t disturbing and tragic enough, he then drove her car to nearby Sandy Hook Elementary School, armed with two handguns and a semi-automatic rifle. There, before turning his gun on himself, he shot and killed 20 children. Six adults were also killed at the school. Nancy Lanza was found dead in her home. A relative told ABC News that Adam was ” obviously not well .” Family friends in Newtown described the young man as troubled and described Nancy as rigid. “[Adam] was not connected with the other kids,” said one. “A little bit different … Kind of repressed.” Federal authorities believe his mother may have once worked where the Connecticut school shooting occurred, although she was not a teacher, as originally reported. Nancy and her husband Peter, Adam’s father, divorced in 2009. Peter Lanza, who drove to northern New Jersey to talk to police and the FBI, is a vice president at GE Capital and had been a partner at accounting giant Ernst & Young. Adam’s older brother Ryan Lanza , 24, has worked at Ernst & Young for four years, following in his father’s footsteps and carving out a solid niche in the tax practice. He too was interviewed by the FBI, but neither he nor his father is under any suspicion, despite erroneous reports originally naming Ryan Lanza as the killer. “[Ryan] is a tax guy and he is clean as a whistle,” a source familiar with him said. Ryan Lanza (above, right) sent out a series of Facebook posts saying it wasn’t him and that he was at work all day. Video records and card swipes at Ernst & Young confirm that. Two federal sources say that an ID belonging to Ryan Lanza was found at the scene of the mass shooting, perhaps leading to the initial conclusion. Neither Adam Lanza (above, left) nor Ryan has any known criminal history. Sig Sauer and Glock handguns were used in the slaying, and .223 shell casings – a round used in a semi-automatic military-style rifle – were also found at the scene. Nancy Lanza had numerous weapons registered to her, including a Glock and a Sig Sauer, plus a semi-automatic Bushmaster rifle, which holds .223 caliber rounds. Friends and relatives of the Lanzas in New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts are being interviewed by the FBI in an effort to put together a better picture of the gunman. “I think the most important thing to point out with this kind of individual is that he did not snap this morning and decide to act out violently,” said FBI profiler Mary Ellen O’Toole “These acts involve planning and thoughtfulness and strategizing in order to put the plan together so what may appear to be snap behavior is not that at all. President Obama cried during a press conference when describing the “beautiful little kids” between five and 10 years of age who had been slain.
My name is Hengi and I’m 17. Let me just start by saying how much I prayed to meet Justin someday. I’ve been a belieber since 2009 and on November 26, 2012 in Montreal I saw my idol for the first time. Well first of all, I went really early at the arena around 8:00 AM. I went there alone since none of my friends could come with me. There was about 20 girls waiting in front of the garage and I decided to wait there also. Around 9:00 AM we saw a bus coming and we started freaking out. His grandma and grandpa were inside . When the bus left in the garage, suddenly Diane comes out and starts talking to us. I was right behind the fence so I was talking to her mostly. Some girls took pictures with her but I didn’t want to bother so I didn’t ask for a photo. I gave her a scrapbook that I made for Justin (which I worked on 2 months before the show). She was really sweet and she told me, “Don’t worry! I will give it to him”. When she left, I had a little hope. I was determined to see Justin. At 11:30 AM, some girls started leaving because it was too cold and they couldn’t wait any longer. Since that was my only chance of seeing him, I still waited. After a while, a man came out and he told us that Justin would come out later with Alfredo on his segwey to meet us. I was so happy. I did not move from my spot and I stayed right behind the fence. Around 1:00, a lot of girls started loosing hope and they left. Some of them still stayed there though. I could barely feel my fingers and my toes, it was extremely cold. I knew that Justin knew that we were waiting for him to come outside in the cold. I know my idol, and I know he would not let us stay there for no reason. Suddenly, as soon as the door of the garage opened at 2:00, I turned around and there he was. My heart was racing, my hands were shaking and all I could see was his beautiful face and his huge hat. I didn’t even scream or say anything. He came right in front of me and I made an eye contact with him. As soon as everyone saw him, they all ran in front of the garage, I decided to go inside and take a picture with him but it was getting too crazy. People were pushing and screaming. Unfortunately I couldn’t take a photo with him but I got pictures of him. He kept saying “I love you!” to everyone and he was sending kisses! He really tried to take pictures but he couldn’t or else girls would attack him. Since there was too many people running towards the garage he decided to leave before it would have gotten crazier. As soon as he left, I started crying. I couldn’t believe that Justin Bieber, my idol, was right in front of me. The security guard who was there told us that Justin was the first artist who ever came out to meet his fans and that he actually cared and wanted to sign autographs. Me and a random girl that I met couldn’t stop crying together. We were in shock that he was just in front of us. That day, was the best day of my life. Not only was the show amazing over all, but the fact that I got to see him 2 feet away from me was the best feeling in the world. I will never forget that day and I hope to meet him and actually talk to him next time. – @PerfectBieber16 See original here: My name is Hengi and I’m 17. Let me just start by saying how…

Alright, where do I begin? November 25th 2012 was a VERY interesting day. With all the Grey Cup festivities going on it got very crazy, but any fan of Justin’s was either at the Rogers Centre for his halftime show performance OR at his hotel trying to meet him . For my friends and I we decided to head to his hotel. We got there around 10 a.m. and there was already quite a few people there from the day before where they had no luck at all. The weather was a tad bit cold but wasn’t bad where you had to leave. During the day his grandparents came out, said hi to us all and took pictures with fans. Justin’s little sister Jazzy sister kept walked to the bus and back and his little bro came to the door and waved to everyone . Dan, Alfredo and Scrappy came out and took a few photos before they went off to do their own thing, yet still no sight of Justin until 7 p.m. when he was leaving to go to the Grey Cup. He just walked by the door and waved . To say the least, a lot of us were upset but on the other hand it was a gamble to wait, so we left to get something to eat, watch his performance, and after he was done we decided to go back and see if he would return. There was about 10 of us waiting (but seemed like a lot more at the time). 15 minutes later Dan and Alfredo returned but no sign of Justin until I poked my head around again to make sure and at the same time, Justin was looking too and called us over for photos! It was a VERY quick process but he didn’t even have to take pictures. For myself, this is huge thing, I’ll admit it, I wasn’t a fan of him during “My World,” I actually started being a fan after seeing him perform at the 2010 MMVAS and also hearing his song “Never Let You Go.” It took me awhile to actually tell people I’m a fan; well cause I’m a 21 year old guy but the friends I’ve made because of it is amazing. So here’s what I say to anyone reading this who hasn’t met him yet, your time will come, and when it does the feelings you will have will be indescribable! -@Cody_Reid Read the original here: Alright, where do I begin?

Happy Golden Globes Nomination Day everyone! While you mull over this year’s crop of obvious picks (” Argo f*** yourself,” Academy ) and not so obvious surprises ( Salmon Fishing in the Yemen , Hope Springs , Taylor Swift and Jon Bon Jovi? Are we really doing this, HFPA?) let’s delight in the reactions of the chosen few who’ll vie for Golden Globes glory on Sunday, January 13. (Updated as nominee reactions roll in…) UPDATED with Jack Black hilarity & more: Helen Mirren, actress, Hitchcock (Best Actress – Drama) “Alma thanks you from the bottom of her heart for the recognition of her contribution to film.” Wes Anderson , director, Moonrise Kingdom (Best Picture – Comedy or Musical) “I received this news by text message on the fast train to Berlin.

I’m so proud of our little engine that could. Thank you HFPA!” Emily Blunt, actress, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (Best Actress – Comedy or Musical) “I’m so incredibly thankful to the Hollywood Foreign Press for recognizing our little movie that could. Ewan and the entire cast and crew could not be more deserving of this honor, and I’m thrilled that I’m able to share this moment among such a fantastic group of nominees.” Ben Affleck , director of Argo (Best Director, Best Motion Picture – Drama) “I want to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for honoring Argo with five nominations. These nominations reflect the courage and determination of real life heroes in the US, Canada, Iran and across the globe. They honor more than 120 actors with speaking roles in multiple languages, thousands of extras in the US and abroad as well as hundreds of extraordinary crewmembers who poured their heart into the film — including the great Alan Arkin, brilliant Chris Terrio and extraordinary Alexandre Desplat, who were nominated today as well and who have my congratulations and gratitude. Thanks again to the HFPA for their support.” Kathryn Bigelow , director/producer of Zero Dark Thirty (Best Director, Best Motion Picture – Drama) “It’s an honor, sincerely, and very humbling to be singled out this way by the HFPA.

And a big congratulations to the amazing Jessica Chastain and my producing partner and screenwriter Mark Boal.” Anne Hathaway , actress, Les Miserables (Best Supporting Actress) “What a great way to wake up!

I am also thrilled that Ben is getting the attention he so much deserves, as is Argo .” Mark Boal, writer/producer of Zero Dark Thirty (Best Original Screenplay and Best Picture – Drama) “We’re very grateful to the HFPA. It means so much to us that press representatives from around the world have reacted with such praise. It’s especially flattering as we’ve seen the film from the beginning as a global story, one that involved and impacted much of the world. Congratulations to Kathryn Bigelow and Jessica Chastain on nominations much deserved.” Tim Burton, producer/director of Frankenweenie (Best Animated Feature Film) “I’m thrilled to be recognized by the HFPA. Frankenweenie is a very personal project for me and the nomination goes as much to the animators who labored frame by frame to bring this film to life.” Mark Andrews, director of Brave (Best Animated Feature Film) “The adventure of Brave began in Scotland, where the mystery and majesty of the land fueled our imaginations. From haggis to highland games, creating this film truly changed our fate. On behalf of everyone at Pixar, we would like to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press for the incredible honor of this nomination.” Graham Broadbent, producer, Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (Best Picture – Comedy or Musical) “ Marigold seems to be turning in to the ‘little film that could’. We’ve had a wonderful ride — it’s been hugely enjoyed by audiences around the world, and that’s really enough for any filmmaker. We couldn’t be happier that the HFPA and SAG are remembering our film, all our cast, and particularly our two ‘international treasures’ Dames, Judi and Maggie. Ol Parker’s script and John Madden’s vision made an experience in the cinemas that was both emotional, transforming and very funny, and reminded audiences of an important universal message, ‘there’s more life to live’ — whatever your age. We are so pleased with our passionate partners at Fox Searchlight and Participant for the care they’ve given our film.” Chris Terrio, screenwriter, Argo (Best Screenplay) “Having a screenplay produced for the first time is a tremendous gift for any writer. To see the script directed by Ben, with the brilliant cast and crew he assembled, and then honored by the HFPA, feels like winning the screenwriter lottery.” Alexandre Desplat, composer, Argo (Best Original Score – Motion Picture) “It is an honor to be nominated again by the HFPA. Writing the score for Argo was a rare experience and I wish to thank Ben Affleck, George Clooney, Grant Heslov and Chay Carter for taking me onboard their flight to Iran. I want to share my nomination with all the brilliant musicians from all over the world who performed on my score.” RELATED ARTICLES: Golden Globes Unveil 70th Edition Nominees Globes Analysis: Hooper, Russell, De Niro Snubbed & Is Waltz Really A Supporting Actor?

Matt Damon says Michael Douglas is a “wonderful” kisser. He also tells Playboy magazine that he and the veteran actor strategized their onscreen make-out sessions for Steven Soderbergh’ s Liberace movie for HBO, Behind The Candelabra , “like a football plan,” which scarily brings to mind John Madden and Al Michaels cavorting in Speedos while diagramming a play-action pass. The Promised Land actor tells interviewer Stephen Rebello that he usually says no to nude scenes, “but I just did a lot of it playing the long-term partner of Liberace, Scott Thorson in Behind the Candelabra .” He took the plunge, he explains, because Soderbergh, who directed Damon on the Oceans films and The Informant! was behind the camera and the scenes in question were “tastefully done.” And, really, who could resist being held firmly in the masculine arms of the silver-maned actor who played Gordon Gekko ? Damon, who plays the much younger lover of the flamboyant piano showman — the Norman Jean Roy photograph above, which appeared in Vanity Fair, shows them in character — says the movie will make some people uncomfortable because “you’re witnessing something really intimate you would normally see with a man and a woman, but instead it’s two men”. He, on the other hand, found the dynamic “thrilling” even though some of the more intimate scenes weren’t “the most natural thing in the world to do, though. Like, for one scene, I had to come out of a pool, go over to Michael, straddle him on a chaise longue and start kissing him. And throughout the script, it’s not like I kiss him just once. We drew it up like a football plan.” At least he didn’t make a pitcher/catcher reference. Damon goes on to say that he once asked the late Heath Ledger how he managed the scene with Jake Gyllenhaal in Brokeback Mountain where to two men hungrily suck face. Ledger’s response: “Well, mate, I drank half a case of beer in my trailer.” Damon add that when he laughed at that response, Ledger told him: “No, I’m serious. I needed to just go for it. If you can’t do that, you’re not making the movie.” The conversation leads Rebello to ask Damon what it was like “when you and Ben Affleck were constantly asked if you were gay, back when you were starting your careers” “I never denied those rumors because I was offended and didn’t want to offend my friends who were gay—as if being gay were some kind of fucking disease,” Damon responds. “It put me in a weird position in that sense. The whole thing was just gross.” [ Playboy ] Follow Frank DiGiacomo on Twitter. Follow Movieline on Twitter.
The Canadian hacker accused of stealing photos of Carly Rae Jepsen nude off her computer and trying to sell them has been arrested, according to reports. Yes … Carly Rae Jepsen apparently has nude pics of herself on her computer. According to Vancouver police, Christopher David Long, 25, turned himself in. He has been charged with fraudulently obtaining telecommunications services, unauthorized use of computer, mischief to data, identity fraud, and possession of stolen property. Officials originally received a tip about the stolen Carly Rae Jepsen nude photos from her camp in March, and have been investigating the matter ever since. Police have been closing in only recently; it’s unclear why Long gave himself up . Long has since been released from custody and is due back in court January 4. None of the alleged pics made their way online … that we know of. Yet. If they were indeed hacked, it’s probably only a matter of time. [Photo: WENN.com]
A video depicting the moments before a Midtown execution style murder has gone viral, and the NYPD is furiously searching for the suspect in the slaying of Brandon Woodward. The video is chilling, especially when you know the tragic result: Midtown Execution Suspect A fatal gunshot to the head killed the 31-year-old Woodard, whose killer slipped casually back into a car and drove off after the Monday afternoon murder. The shocking Midtown execution clip was captured on a security camera, but the victim’s family is as stumped about her son’s murder as cops seem to be. Woodward’s mother tells the New York Times: “I don’t know what happened.” “We don’t know why anyone would harm him. We have no idea. He didn’t have any enemies. Not one. He liked to tell jokes. He liked to have his friends over to entertain.” NYPD police commissioner Ray Kelly spoke out about the Midtown execution video and the chilling, horrifyingly blase attitude of Woodard’s killer in the clip. “It was very brazen … There were a lot of people in that area. Obviously, a lot of cameras in New York. So you could characterize it as either brazen or foolhardy. We’ll see.” The video above shows the suspect moments before he shot Woodard. The below report from ABC News provides more details (and graphic images). Midtown Killer The case comes on the heels of the death of a man at the hands of the so-called Subway push killer , marking the second high-profile NYC murder this month.
