Old Heads Matrimony-dom: 86-Year-Old Dick Van Dyke Wifes Up Makeup Artist Half His Age

Posted on March 10, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Sweet or gross? We’re pretty sure nobody in Hollyweird even batted a false eyelash at this. RumorFix has learned exclusively that Hollywood legend Dick Van Dyke, 86, married to his makeup artist on Leap Day. The Mary Poppins star tells RumorFix he met 40-year-old Arlene Silver six years ago at the SAG Awards, “I was in the green room and she passed through and I was bowled over by her beauty.” The octogenarian then hired her to be his personal makeup artist and they became friends. “The last couple of years we kind of fell in love,” he tells us. The healthy TV and film star says, “She keeps up with me.” Then on February 29th, the Diagnosis Murder star decided to make the plunge, “Kinda on the spur of the moment, we just decided Leap Day would be the best time to do it.” Arlene tells RumorFix, “He’s the happiest person I ever met. He’s got an infectious spirit.” Dick, who couldn’t stop smiling during our interview, says being a newlywed in his 80s is “Wonderful. Wonderful.” The actor/dancer/singer, who has been in committed relationships since 1948 confesses, “I’m not a loner. I have to have a life partner. I found the perfect one.” Hey if they like it we love it. Would you marry a man or woman more than twice your age? Probably if they were nice and loaded riiiiight? Source More On Bossip!

Sex Is A Weapon: Detroit Man Shot Dead By Gas Station Clerk After Beefing Over The Price Of Condoms!

Posted on March 10, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Ok, so maybe Jimmy-hats have suffered from inflation a bit, but damn! A man was shot and killed Friday night after an apparent dispute over the price of condoms at a Detroit gas station. WWJ’s Beth Fisher spoke to an employee at the BP gas station on Fenkell and Meyers, where the shooting took place on the city’s westside overnight. The employee said the argument was apparently over the price of a box of condoms. He said the customer bought a box of condoms, but made a comment that he was overcharged and could have bought them somewhere else for a cheaper price. After being told he couldn’t get a refund, the customer allegedly began tossing items off the shelves. That’s when, according to the employee, the overnight clerk came out with a gun and fired a warning shot, which struck the customer in the shoulder. Police say the customer was taken to a local hospital where he later died from his injuries. Ron Scott, with the Detroit Coalition Against Police Brutality, said they are working on conflict resolution between gas station owners and Detroiters, something they will be discussing at a meeting on Sunday. “We can’t have this kind of attitude and this kind of disrespect for life. Whether it happens to people who work in the gas station or definitely if it happens to people in the community. From what I’m understanding, the price of a condom should not be somebody’s life,” said Scott. Police say the store clerk, whose name has not been released, is in custody. An investigation is ongoing. R.I.P. sir… Image via WWJ Detroit Source More On Bossip! Eff A Traveler’s Digest: 10 Countries With Beautiful BLACK Women Action!

Kush Chronic-les: Rev. Pat Robertson Thinks The Government Should Just Make The “Sticky-Icky” Legal, Says War On Drugs Is A Failure

Posted on March 10, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

When God said “Let there be light” we don’t think THIS is what he was talking about The Rev. Pat Robertson says America should legalize marijuana. Would Jesus agree? Msnbc.com put that question to a few theologians and religion experts, and the answer is … decidedly hazy. Robertson, the outspoken Christian evangelist and host of “The 700 Club,” made national headlines this week when he told The New York Times that pot should be decriminalized and treated like alcohol because the government’s war on drugs has failed miserably and is costing taxpayers billions of dollars. “I’ve never used marijuana and I don’t intend to, but it’s just one of those things that I think: this war on drugs just hasn’t succeeded,” he told the newspaper. Scholars disagree on whether the Bible lays down the law on use of mind-altering drugs such as marijuana, also known as cannabis. “It’s not so simple that you can just go to the Scriptures and say, ‘Hey, that (passage) says marijuana should be illegal,’ or ‘that says marijuana should be legal.’ There is no such passage,” says Father Thomas Reese, S.J., senior fellow at Woodstock Theological Center at Georgetown University. Some pro-pot Christians refer to Genesis 1:29 and interpret it to mean God does not frown on ingesting plants such as marijuana: And God said, Behold, I have given you every plant bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, which has seed in its fruit; to you it shall be for food.

Twee-riffic! Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom Will Kick Off Cannes

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Get ready for some twee twinkling on the Croisette — Wes Anderson ‘s Moonrise Kingdom is set to open the 2012 Cannes Film Festival! Last year’s opener, Woody Allen’s Midnight in Paris , went on to enjoy a rousingly successful theatrical run on its way to a Best Picture nomination; Anderson’s comedy, about a pair of pre-teen lovebirds on the lam in 1960s New England, will open stateside just over a week after its May 16 Cannes debut and marks his return to live-action film after his most recent film, the Oscar-nominated Fantastic Mr. Fox . In a statement announcing the premiere, Cannes head Thierry Frémaux referenced Fellini and Renoir while calling Anderson a ‘ brilliant and inventive filmmaker ‘; not too shabby for a guy who most recently followed in the footsteps of some of cinema’s brightest directors by helming a pair of car commercials for Hyundai ! (Said ads are classic Anderson, though, through and through — can’t quite say the same for this week’s other ad director-for-hire, Darren Aronofsky .) Moonrise Kingdom stars youngsters Jared Gilman as Sam and Kara Hayward as his best gal Suzy, along with Bruce Willis, Tilda Swinton, Ed Norton, Frances McDormand, Jason Schwartzman, Bob Balaban, and Harvey Keitel.

“Yes, because everybody’s giving me a ration about it. I wish they would have named it something else because I have a weird background and now people keep accusing me of being reincarnated.” I see. How about John Carter of Oklahoma? “Why are you calling? Oh. Well, he’s been dead for over 10 years.” [ Moviefone ]

Lie Down With Dogs, Wake Up With Beverly Hills Ninja 2 and a Lawsuit

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

There’s an old Korean proverb intoning that anyone who attempts to make a sequel to Beverly Hills Ninja starring David Hasselhoff will eventually get the cosmic punishment he or she deserves. If you don’t believe that, then ask Jay So, the plaintiff in a new lawsuit involving the unfinished Beverly Hills Ninja 2 and six figures’ worth of unpaid development work. THR passes along word of the suit filed Wednesday in L.A., in which So alleges that writer-director Mitchell Klebanoff and his Korean investors (the latter of whom Klebanoff successfully sued last year for his own improper termination) stiffed him on a $100,000 co-producer fee. This came after So “commenced substantial pre-production efforts and activities, including sourcing potential investors” — one of whom, Jungho Han, eventually partnered with Klebanoff, with both allegedly changing the company name and edging So out: As a result, So inquired about his $100,000. He then had a meeting Han, who allegedly told him that $200,000 had been obtained for the project, and that the money would be going to Klebanoff and Han. So was purportedly refused his fee. Meanwhile, around the time that So was karate-chopped out of the picture, the film experienced some money issues, according to details that were revealed in the earlier Klebanoff lawsuit. The film stopped production in LA, before resuming in Vancouver. Some of the film was shot, but it was never completed because Klebanoff and Han argued over things like whether the film’s lead actress should appear nude in the film. Of course . Did I mention that David Hasselhoff was in this, too? What could go wrong? Moreover, this is what they’re dealing with at Los Angeles Superior Court? I say let Judge Joe Brown dispense with this in 15 minutes, complete with a lesson about the stinking miasma of Hollywood values and maybe remanding the litigants to some kind of experimental rehab for hideous taste. Or exiling them to space. Now I’m out of ideas. Suggestions? [ THR ] Follow S.T. VanAirsdale on Twitter . Follow Movieline on Twitter .

Sarah Palin on Game Change: Hollywood LIES!

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

In HBO’s new film Game Change , Sarah Palin is portrayed by Julianne Moore as unstable, unprepared and ill-informed on world affairs and basic world history. The former GOP V.P. candidate is none too pleased about all this, even though the film is based on John Heilemann and Mark Halperin’s page-turning bestseller. A non-fiction bestseller. Of course, Palin will never actually see it, but dag gone it, “Hollywood lies are Hollywood lies,” she says of Game Change and its window into the 2008 election. Palin accuses Jay Roach, the director, and his collaborator, Danny Strong, of trying “[To] drum up their money and their machine and their machine happens to be very pro-leftist, pro-Barack Obama … there at HBO.” The one-time Alaska Governor lambasted its “false narrative” also noted that any of the campaign staffers who contributed to revealing behind-the-scenes information for Game Change should feel “shame and… embarrassment.” Palin’s PAC slammed the film , debuting tomorrow night, as “historical fiction.” The PAC claims that despite the alleged 25 sources consulted, “none are on record nor is their level of involvement in the campaign disclosed. Not one source is on the record in either the book or in the movie and it is clear why.” Never mind that much of the film involves Moore reenacting scenes that took place in real life, on TV … or that the film might not even be that negative. The L.A. Times describes Game Change as a “surprisingly kind film about Sarah Palin,” and NPR argues that the movie actually goes too easy on her. Or as they put it (to Fox News), Game Change is “fair – and balanced.” Check out the trailer for the much-talked-about film right here: Game Change Movie Trailer

Making It Rain On Them Hoes: Kris Humphries’ Plus-Sized Sister Signs With Ford Models

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If basketball doesn’t pan out, Kris Humphries always has another beautiful woman he can depend on… his sister Kaela ! According to USWeekly reports : Kris isn’t the only Humphries putting his height to good use. His sister Kaela Humphries has signed a contract with Ford Models, the agency confirms to Us Weekly. “We are thrilled to have…Kaela,” her Ford rep said in a statement. “We think she will make a great addition to the team.” Prior to signing with Ford, Humphries, 29, was represented by Wilhemina Models in Los Angeles. The entire Ford+ team (Ford’s plus-size division), shared their enthusiasm about having the gorgeous Minnesota native on board in a separate statement. “[We’re] excited at the prospect of bringing this beautiful, engaging young woman to markets worldwide,” the agency declared. “A true size 16-18, Kaela will be in a league of her own.” Humphries may look familiar to Keeping up with the Kardashians fans, who got to see her on-screen in the midst of Kim and Kris’ courtship. In fact, the stunner has admitted she’s been mistaken for a Kardashian sister herself while out with her famous former family-in-law. “People think I look like [Khloe] with my hair straight,” Humphries told the Twin Cities’ Star Tribune in 2011. “We both have light eyes and are 5-foot-10!” Kris’ sister has some pretty eyes, but we don’t know if Khloe will be thrilled to learn she’s been mistaken for a plus-sized model — banger or not. What do you think of Kaela? Would you wife her? Photo Credit: Ford Models More On Bossip! Eff A Traveler’s Digest: 10 Countries With Beautiful BLACK Women Action!
