The weirdest shit to me is that Sasha Grey managed to market herself as some kind of performing artist….who’s art is getting throat fucked….instead of ass some gutter whore with daddy issues and no shame because she likes the attention and more importantly the easy money that is far better than working in a stripclub or brothel for…. She’s seen as this mainstream cross over legitimate force….and now she’s doing fashion spreads for magazines like Interview….instead of being frowned upon in society of the gutter trash she is….. From gang bang and throat rape and getting fucked up the ass to taking on this…like she’s got anything interesting to offer other than her pussy and ass and mouth we’ve all seen violated….It just doesn’t make sense….send her back to where she belongs…the whole thing offends me more than any of her porn probably offends a religious person…
Crazy Heart writer-director Scott Cooper isn’t holding back with the follow-up to his double-Oscar-winning filmmaking debut, dialing in Christian Bale, Casey Affleck, Sam Shepard and Zoe Saldana (not to mention producers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Ridley Scott and Relativity Media mogul Ryan Kavanaugh) for the family crime-and-redemption drama Out of the Furnace . Read on for full details just over the transom from Relativity; adjust your Oscar 2013 pools accordingly. ================= (Beverly Hills, Calif.) April 5, 2012 – Relativity Media has closed deals with Oscar®-winner Christian Bale ( The Fighter ), Oscar®-nominated Casey Affleck ( The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford ), Zoe Saldana ( Avatar ) and Oscar®-nominated Sam Shepard ( Safe House ) to star as the lead roles in the upcoming gripping and gritty drama currently titled Out of the Furnace , written and directed by the critically-acclaimed Scott Cooper ( Crazy Heart ), it was announced today by Relativity’s Co-President, Tucker Tooley. Bale will star as older brother Russell Baze in the film alongside Affleck who will play the role of younger brother Rodney Baze Jr. Saldana has also been cast as Bale’s love interest Lena Warren and Shepard will play Red, Russell and Rodney Baze’s uncle. Production is set to begin in Braddock, Pennsylvania later this month. Relativity Media will release the film theatrically in the U.S. Red Granite, the Los Angeles based film production, finance and international sales company has acquired foreign rights outside of the U.S. and will handle international sales. Red Granite International President Danny Dimbort and Co-President Christian Mercuri will begin shopping the film to buyers in Cannes next month. In making the announcement, Tooley said, “This is a meaty script with characters as strong as they are complex, and we needed powerhouse actors who complement the story. Christian, Casey, Zoe and Sam each approach everything they do with heart and conviction. We can’t wait to see what each of them brings to this film,” says Tooley. The film is a drama about fate, circumstance, and redemption. Russell and his younger brother live in the economically depressed Rust Belt, and have always dreamed of escaping and finding better lives. But when a cruel twist of fate lands Russell in prison, his brother is lured into one of the most violent and ruthless crime rings in the Northeast – a mistake that will almost cost him everything. Once released, Russell must choose between his own freedom, or risk it all to seek justice for his brother. Producing are Appian Way’s Leonardo DiCaprio ( J. Edgar ) and Jennifer Killoran ( The Ides of March ) alongside Scott Free’s Ridley Scott ( The Grey ), Tony Scott ( Man on Fire ) and Michael Costigan ( American Gangster ) as well as Relativity’s CEO Ryan Kavanaugh ( The Fighter ). Bale and Affleck were both represented by WME in the deals. Saldana and Shepard were both represented by ICM in the deals. ###
Now here’s a biopic I can get excited about: Blaxploitation icon Pam Grier is set to see her 2010 autobiography Foxy, My Life in Three Acts , adapted for the screen with Fresh Prince of Bel-Air / Living Single TV vet Eunetta Boone to script. Grier’s story is full of sensational events — just imagine that one Richard Pryor story , reenacted — but also marks a turning point in the portrayal of strong, sexually-empowered women in Hollywood. That said, what young actresses out there can fill Grier’s foxy shoes? I’m curious to see which actresses can even resemble Grier’s legendary physique and unusual features, let alone nail that combination of toughness and vulnerability that made her B-movie heroines so intriguing. Last year Grier spoke with Movieline about her career, her formative pre-fame years, the childhood trauma that made her who she was, and the semi-accidental foray into Hollywood that launched her trailblazing career. On the roots of the fearlessness that came to mark her onscreen persona: “It comes from my personal life. It comes from me experiencing very tragic circumstances when I was six and again at 19, and again at 21, where I finally felt I had to survive, I had to live through these circumstances. That gave me confidence. I fight a little harder, I challenge people… there are things that happened to me personally that I bring to the screen. But also, I wanted to show other women that they, too, won’t lose their femininity or castrate their men by being assertive. It’s okay to be confident… if you’re right. On her first screen credit: “It’s Beyond the Valley of the Dolls ! I went to the set to visit a friend; I was a starving student working six jobs, and I just kind of went with him and the next thing I know they say, ‘Hey, we need more extras!’ They said, ‘We’ll put you in a dress, and you’ll say something.’ That was my first credit. It was Russ Meyer and Beyond the Valley of the Dolls , and I wasn’t even union. I was like, ‘Well, okay.’ I had no intention of being an actor.” On her initial Hollywood aspirations: “I still haven’t been convinced. [Pauses] Just kidding! At the time I wanted to be a camera person. I didn’t feel like I was attractive enough, with the glamour you see on television and the images that were portrayed. And I was a revolutionary, I was into the Black Panthers, being independent, feeding your own, give them a pole they’ll learn how to feed themselves, and all of that. The womanly stuff was foreign to me. I came to Hollywood in a flannel shirt, Timberland boots, and Levis, with a big ‘fro in my family’s hunting jeep with no roof, no doors, no windows. They’d see me hiking up Sunset Plaza Boulevard, it’s a long winding road, because I was used to hiking in Colorado. They said, ‘No one in Los Angeles hikes! What are you, nuts?’ No, it’s just what I do. So I brought all of those differences, a different type of woman. They could dress me up, I clean up well. But that was my first credit. And I didn’t know what I was saying. I didn’t know anything of what to do.” Read the full interview here .
During a recent interview, Rihanna was asked about Blue Ivy. With much excitement, Rihanna explained how much Blue looks like her dad, Jay-Z. Rihanna tells Britian’s Capital FM “It’s unreal! You couldn’t get more perfect than that child, she’s beautiful. And she really is Jay-Z’s twin. It’s hilarious…lol…She’s beautiful, though!”
For the first time since the death of her daughter, Cissy Houston has spoken out. In an interview that will air Monday on New Jersey’s My9’s 10 O’Clock News, Cissy Houston says she still has her “moments” of mourning since Whitney passed away in February. “I’m not there yet. I don’t think I’m any more courageous than anyone else. I am a true believer in God, if I could bring her back I would, but that’s not possible.” News broke yesterday that cocaine was found in Whitney’s hotel room, following coroner confirmation that the singer died with that drug in her system. The artist’s substance abuse problems have been well documented, of course, but Cissy says she can’t hold herself responsible for these issues, not after so many years of attempting to intervene. “I know I did the best I could,” she says. “I don’t blame myself. I know I did the best I could for everything.” While avoiding any public statements until now, Cissy has reportedly been critical of her former son-in-law , Bobby Brown, and has been looking over her granddaughter, Bobbi Kristina. She’s now the most direct link Cissy has to Whitney. “I’m very proud of my daughter,” she says in the interview. “She accomplished a whole lot in the short time that she had here… she was a very wonderful person.”
Michael Bay Gives Tyrese Restraining Order Tyrese has some legal issues to contend with. Apparently Michael By isn’t quite pleased with him. Singer /actor Tyrese just can’t win. Tyrese has gone on the interview circuit proclaiming how cool he and Transformers director Michael Bay are. The only issue with that is Michael Bay doesn’t want to be associated with Tyrese. Bay and his attorneys sent a cease and desist letter to Tyrese. To add insult to injury, Tyrese was hit with a restraining order by the Hollywood director. Sources close to the situation say Bay filed the restraining order when he heard Tyrese was going around telling industry insiders he and Bay were close friends. Michael Bay’s cousin Susan commented on the matter, stating, “Michael Bay has a cease and desist on Tyrese, and a restraining order on Tyrese. Michael didn’t like when Tyrese was calling out his name on television, like they were boys. Everywhere Tyrese went, he was calling out Michael’s name. Mike didn’t like that sh*t.” LOL! Dude just doesn’t want to be Tyrese’s friend that bad! Does ANYbody like Tyrese? Anyone? Beuller? Pic via WENN Source More On Bossip!

Did Rick Santorum almost call President Obama the n-word? Multiple news outlets are featuring a video of the Republican President candidate speaking to a crowd in Wisconsin this week (below), where he said: “We know the candidate Barack Obama, what he was like – the anti-war government …” He then starts to say a word starting with “n-” or “ni-“. He continues, “America was a source for division around the world, that what we were doing was wrong.” Did he almost drop the n-word? Listen: Rick Santorum N-Word Obama Line Santorum’s team, of course, insists this is BS : “Give me a break. That’s unbelievable. What does it say about those that are running with this story that that’s where their mind goes. You know, I’m not going to dignify that with [a response].” The n-word, one hopes, is never in anyone’s thoughts, even subconsciously. The debates showed time and again that Rick Santorum, when frustrated, rapidly loses eloquence and becomes tongue-tied, stuttering slightly. Could that be all this is? On the flip side … what other ni-word was that supposed to be? You tell us: Was Santorum about to drop the n-bomb?
It doesn’t sound like Heejun Han will be pulling an Erika Van Pelt. The season 11 finalist was eliminated from American Idol last night, but while Van Pelt has expressed disdain for the judges’ decision NOT to save her – saying in an interview that she feels shafted – Han spoke to reporters this morning and sounded at peace with the process. “It was way too early to use their card,” he said of the single veto permitted by the panel of three. “I’m pretty sure they’re saving it for some other people. It was fair and square.” Heejun Han – “A Song For You” Han also said that performing “My Life” was his favorite moment during the run, even if Steven Tyler wasn’t a fan of the comical rendition. “We had our different perspectives,” he said of his mini clash with the rocker. “I was trying to give a fun time to America because I thought it would be entertaining and fun. Maybe he took it wrong, but I can’t please everyone.” What does Han see next for himself? Randy Jackson joked he should star in his own sitcom, an idea Heejan is running with: “It should be an Asian guy who’s trying to go out with really pretty blonde girl. [Laughs.] Of course, I’m not going to be picky about anything. I really want to make something out of this.” And what advice does he have for future hopefuls? “It’s The Hunger Games , but it’s not killing each other. Why do you always have to be so serious when only one person is going to survive? You might as well have fun and have a thick skin and stay true to yourself.”
Music legend Jerry Lee Lewis is a married man. The 76-year-old tied the knot with 62-year-old Judith Brown on March 9 in Natchez, Miss., CNN reports. Interestingly, Brown was previously married to the legendary rocker’s cousin, Rusty. Whose sister Myra Gale Brown married Lewis when she was just 13 back in 1957. So, yeah, it’s a little unusual. It’s also Jerry’s seventh marriage overall. Lewis, also known as The Killer, has been a rock-and-roll icon for decades thanks to such classic hits as “Great Balls of Fire” and “Whole Lotta Shakin’ Goin’ On.” Lewis and his sixth wife, who were married for 20 years, divorced in 2004. Here’s hoping Jerry finds happiness this time around. Goodness gracious, indeed!
