First Clip from Burlesque Features Less Camp, More Singing

After the initial trailer for Burlesque threw glitter up all over the Internet last week, it’s somewhat surprising to see that the first clip from the film is so benign in nature. The musical’s biggest selling points — Cher and Stanley Tucci’s eyeglasses — are nowhere to be found here, replaced instead by Christina Aguilera’s booming vocals on “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” and a dance routine that feels like Flashdance minus the water. Click ahead to watch, but be prepared to tap your foot in unison.

Vanessa Hudgens Says ‘Sucker Punch’ Would Be ‘So Badass’ In 3-D

‘Having my tomahawk fly towards your face, [it would be] just too cool,’ she tells MTV News of Zack Snyder flick. By Kara Warner, with reporting by Tim Kash Vanessa Hudgens Photo: MTV News Vanessa Hudgens’ upcoming film roles are definite departures from her squeaky-clean work in “High School Musical” — particularly in the upcoming action-thriller “Sucker Punch,” directed by “300” helmer Zack Snyder. When MTV News recently caught up with the young star, she revealed just how different the role really is. Hint: She’s traded singing for slinging bullets. Although the film will present at Comic-Con this weekend, Hudgens said it is far from completion. “It’s probably, definitely not done,” she said. “There’s so much CGI in it, it’s ridiculous.” Regarding the film joining in on the popular 3-D trend, Hudgens was enthusiastic about “Sucker Punch” going that route. “It would be so badass,” she said. “It’s already really badass, but having it in 3-D … having my tomahawk fly towards your face, [it would be] just too cool, you know?” Speaking of badass, Hudgens continued to cite the gun-slinging as her favorite aspect of filming. “Shooting a .50-cal [machine gun], there’s nothing like it,” she said with a smile. Hudgens added that she and her female castmates (including Jena Malone, Abbie Cornish and Emily Browning) found a new sense of empowerment with their gun-wielding skills. “I think all of us girls loved it so much. We’re all strong individuals, and when you give us a gun … you kind of unleash something.” Hudgens is also excited for fans to see a sneak peek of footage, which will premiere at Comic-Con in San Diego. “I’m going for the first time, and I’m so excited!” she exclaimed. “I want to go dress up in a mask or paint my face so I can walk around in the crowd.” Most of all, Hudgens can’t wait to see the first clip from the film, which is slated to premiere Saturday. “I’m really excited [for fans to see it]. There’s this beast that’s been unleashed with all of this. … I’m a lot tougher, stronger, badass — I don’t want to sound cocky, but it’s cool.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Sucker Punch.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Lindsay Lohan: Under Police Watch, Axed From Film

Just when you think Lindsay Lohan’s week can’t get any worse, she somehow finds a way. Girl is nothing if not persistent … and usually sloshed. A day after sheriff’s deputies made a surprise visit to her place, Lindsay’s attorney confirmed that the LAPD also has the train wreck in its sights. Cops questioned Lohan after a friend’s $35,000 Rolex went missing at her home . Linds has been cooperative and as of now, she’s not a suspect. Still, she remains under close watch from authorities, who visited her the previous day amid allegations that Lindsay was corrupting Ali Lohan . Meanwhile, on the work front, things are going from bad to worse after Lindsay was axed from another movie because she’s “not bankable.” In related news, Heidi Montag’s body is “not natural.” UNRELIABLE : Movie studios want nothing to do with this . Lindsay Lohan was slated to star in The Other Side , a new movie also starring Woody Harrelson, Giovanni Ribisi, Dave Matthews and Alanis Morissette. It’s about a grad student working on a deserted island, which is basically where Lohan’s career is stranded after she was cut loose from the film. David Michaels, the writer/director, said that “Our team simply chose to move on from Lindsay and we’ll soon be announcing a replacement.” People financing the film were skittish about relying on Lindsay . Shocking. It’s unfortunate for Lindsay, who really needs to consolidate credit card debt and find a reliable source of income, that she’s viewed as a liability. Perhaps if she’d focus on acting instead of drunk Tweeting for five seconds, she might actually utilize what’s left of her once-considerable talent.
