It looks like fatherhood has not mellowed Alec Baldwin. The actor, who welcomed a daughter with wife Hilaria Thomas last Friday, got into yet ANOTHER scuffle with a photographer today on the sidewalk of New York City. According to TMZ, several pedestrians witnessed the encounter and confirm that the paparazzo was the aggressor. He trailed Baldwin and Thomas until the latter fled into a tea store. The police were eventually called and both Alec and the unnamed “journalist” admit they engaged in some pushing and shoving. But both men also agreed to settle the matter on the spot. No charges are expected to be filed. Baldwin, of course, is nearly as famous for his tirades as he is for his hilarious hosting of Saturday Night Live. Although it wasn’t a physical altercation, the Emmy winner is still receiving flak for his Twitter rant this summer against a Daily Mail writer.
Ever since the casting of Ben Affleck as Batman shocked the world last Thursday, fans have either been grumbling about it or meme-ing it to death. Except YouTube user soylentbrak1, who has been hard at work envisioning what a Man of Steel sequel starring Ben Affleck as Batman would look like. The result was this fan-made trailer, also starring Breaking Bad Emmy-winner Bryan Cranston as Lex Luthor and Henry Cavill again as Superman. Check it out below and see if it changes your views on Ben as Bruce Wayne: Man of Steel 2 Trailer (Fan-Made) There isn’t much plot in this Man of Steel 2 trailer, besides the mention of a mysterious corporate merger and some tension between Superman and Batman. Given that it’s not a real trailer, however, it’s pretty top notch. Affleck in a Wayne-esque suit and Cranston with a shaved head, Walter White style, saying Breaking Bad quotes Luthor might say? Quite creative. Cranston playing Luthor has also been rumored, while Affleck’s casting has already been confirmed. Amy Adams plays Lois in the above trailer. Besides Breaking Bad, footage used came from Total Recall, Daredevil, Elysium, Iron Man 2 and The Dark Knight . Can you spot any other roles?
There, there, Francesca Schiavone. Many opponents of Serena Williams can feel your pain. The former French Open champion got positively smoked by the defending U.S. Open champion in the first round of the latter last night, going down 6-0, 6-1 and seeking comfort wherever she could find it… like in the arms of a very confused ball boy. Watch Schiavone actually go in for a hug in this hilarious clip: Francesca Schiavone Hugs Ball Boy Dude, she may not be Maria Sharapova . But still. Get Francesca digits!
I’ve had Gene Simmons’ hottie daughter Sophie Simmons on the site before, and even though she’s not showing off any of that impressive cleavage of hers here at the Getaway LA premiere, I’m still a fan. I know what you might be thinking, but listen, I’m equal opportunity. I’m not always into skinny chicks. Sure, I prefer them, but every once in a while I like a little meat. And Sophie is downright chunkalicious. That’s a compliment, P.S. » view all 24 photos Photos: WENN.com

Ci-Ci is letting it all hang out in the new issue of Paper Mag. Via PaperMag But she’s in when it comes to exploration and being more open to the public these days. Just like her music, Ciara herself is way less guarded than she used to be. “I thought it was better to be private,” admits the 27-year-old. “But self-reflection helped me to say, ‘You need to live more. If you worry so much about things, your head is going to explode. Just live. Something has to give.’ I was holding back so much that I wasn’t letting myself explore and live.” Which means Ciara is now open to talking about her relationship with the avant-rapper Navydius “Future” Cash, who is an executive producer of the album and collaborated on the first single, “Body Party.” It’s a sultry act of musical seduction (“My body is your party, baby/Nobody’s invited but you, baby”). The video imagines the couple’s first meeting, where their flirty banter culminates with a seal of approval from Ciara. “He reads,” she says, as he walks away. “He’s very understanding,” she tells me, “and he’s my best friend. It’s important to have a feeling that you can talk about anything and know a person’s going to be there and support you. When we’re together, it’s not about who we are. I feel very normal, very safe and loved. Awwww, sweet black love. She goes on to explain why she won’t slander Bow Wow, 50 Cent, Amare Stoudemire, Cam Newton or any of her other former boos. “Being able to speak about it is a whole different thing for me,” she goes on. “I’m not thinking or caring too much about what anybody has to say anymore. Once you start over-thinking and worrying, you start getting close to insanity. I want my sanity and a life and happiness.” (It’s partly for that reason that Ciara won’t crank out bitter songs about ex-lovers. “It’ll come to light,” she says. “Whatever energy a person gives you, they’ll have to deal with that. I’m not necessarily going to be so direct in a song.”) We find it hard to believe that Ci-Ci won’t send a couple subliminal shots toward her exes on a record, especially 50, but ok, if she says so. Check out more pics of Ciara’s shoot with Paper Mag after the flippy. Image via PaperMagazine Continue reading →
Sweet baby Jesus, lay your healing hands on Lammy… Lamar Odom Rejects Clippers And Lakers Teammates’ Offer For Help During Intervention Looks like this thing is going to get worse before it gets better… Via RadarOnline The situation is dire — drug-troubled basketball star Lamar Odom rejected intervention attempts by teammates from the Los Angeles Clippers and his former team the Los Angeles Lakers, late on Monday afternoon, in a Los Angeles hotel room, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned. The dramatic talks lasted three hours during which Odom, 33, appeared to be under the influence of a substance, a source inside the room said. “There was a bit of time it appeared that Lamar was going to admit publicly his addition and go to rehab, again,” the source told Radar. “But then, he abruptly bolted from the hotel and left the premises.” It’s believed he is now hold up in another hotel. Odom’s agent, Jeff Schwartz, was also at the intervention and made a series of calls during which he begged him to return to the hotel, but the sixth-man refused. Said one source, “One minute Lamar is agreeing that he needs help and 30 minutes later, he says he just needs to be left alone. This is extremely serious, but there is really nothing anyone can do to save Lamar unless he wants to save himself.” The source said there was evidence that Odom had been under the influence of a controlled substance during the intervention. “Lamar was sweaty and talking very fast. His hands were shaking and he couldn’t sit still. He kept pacing in the room,” the source added. Damn, homie sounds like Pookie from New Jack City right now… Despite reports he’s abusing crack cocaine, the source said Odom, the husband of reality star Khloe Kardashian, is suffering from an addiction to OxyContin, as we first reported. He also abuses Ambien, a sedative that is used for the short-term treatment of insomnia, sources say. Stop pushing people away Lamar, you need some help, clearly… Image via Splash
