The Next Human Centipede Will Have a British Accent

Are you ready for the sequel to this year’s barifest sensation, The Human Centipede ? Director Tom Six tells the BBC that not only will the new centipede tie together twelve people, but the film will shoot this month with a mostly British cast: “When I talk about the main players in World War II, a lot of people ask ‘where is England?’…I had so many ideas when I wrote part one but I couldn’t put them all in because I wanted the audience to get used to the sick idea. Now I can put all my crazy ideas in part two.” Can one still retain a stiff upper lip when that lip is sewn to someone’s anus? We’ll soon find out! [ BBC via Movie City News ]

Why the Lost Epilogue Doesn’t Ruin the Show

The complete sixth season of Lost hits DVD and Blu-ray today, meaning critics, haters and contrarians alike can have another shot at the series and its controversial finale. Stoking that flame is the pièce de résistance of the release, a 12-minute series epilogue titled “The New Man in Charge” that leaked earlier this month . The epilogue is receiving a certain amount of flack while simultaneously being derided by as possibly “ruining” the series. Which would be true except for the fact that it’s not.

Miley Cyrus To Auction Off Her Wardrobe

Sale benefiting the philanthropic social network Get Ur Good On begins later this month. By James Montgomery Miley Cyrus Photo: Kevin Mazur/WireImage Miley Cyrus is cleaning out her closet — for a good cause. She’s just announced plans to auction off her clothing and accessories on eBay . The proceeds will benefit Get Ur Good On , a social network aimed at connecting youth with volunteer and service opportunities in and around their communities. “For me I get this amazing blessing and opportunity to do this every day and get up on stage and hopefully inspire people with my music,” Cyrus said in a video message posted on the Get Ur Good On site. “And that’s something that’s really important to me, but so is getting involved in charities.” In recent months, it’s been Cyrus’ clothing (or lack thereof) that’s garnered most of the headlines . But the new auction is just the latest charity endeavor she’s undertaken with Youth Service America, the organization that runs Get Ur Good On. Earlier this summer, she served as a spokesperson for YSA’s “Blessings in a Backpack” mission, which provides weekend meals to children on free- or reduced-lunch programs. “There’s amazing charities right here in America. You don’t have to travel 30 hours … you don’t have to give a billion dollars. It’s not about how much or how far, it’s about looking at your neighbors and seeing how you can help,” Cyrus said. “This isn’t just stuff that’s all over the world, it’s right here, it’s right next to you. It’s important to get involved.” Cyrus’ Get Ur Good On auction is scheduled to begin later this month. Related Photos The Evolution Of: Miley Cyrus Related Artists Miley Cyrus

Victoria Silvstedt Flashes Her Good Side

After yesterday’s hot little Victoria Silvstedt bikini pictures , I’ve had fake blond hair and big old boobies on the brain so I thought I’d post more of the bombshell and I can’t think of anything better than some shots of her getting into an SUV in a tight dress. That ass looks great. I wonder if she knows I’m giving away free mustache rides until the end of the month. Call me.
