‘The high altitude in Utah shook up this kid from Brooklyn.’ By Gil Kaufman Tracy Morgan at Sundance Film Festival Photo: Getty Images “30 Rock” star Tracy Morgan left Utah’s Park City Medical Center on Monday afternoon after he fell ill 
 following an awards event at the Sundance Film Festival on Sunday. As rumors swirled about what caused his health issues, the star took to Twitter to explain the incident and assure fans that he is back on his feet and ready to work. “Superman ran into a little kryptonite,” he wrote. “The high altitude in Utah shook up this kid from Brooklyn.” Morgan thanked the staff at the hospital and said he was planning to return to work on the “30 Rock” set today. “Gotta thank the AMAZING medical staff and all my supporters! Love you,” he added, throwing in a shout out to the New York Giants for their ticket to the Super Bowl. TMZ posted a photo of Morgan walking through the airport with a breathing tube under his nose attached to an oxygen tank. Morgan was receiving an award at the Creative Coalition Spotlight Awards in Park City, Utah on Sunday when he seemed disoriented during his speech and was escorted out of the building a short time later, where he fell unconscious. He was rushed by ambulance to the Park City Medical Center and a spokesperson for the hospital said that no drugs or alcohol were found in his system. A rep for the actor released a statement explaining, “from a combination of exhaustion and altitude, Tracy is seeking medical attention … He is with his fianc

AnnaLynne McCord Laughs Off Topless Twitpic Faux Pas

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘I am going to tweet myself naked all the time,’ the ‘90210’ actress jokes to MTV News at Sundance. By Jocelyn Vena, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Annalynne McCord Photo: MTV News Much like a plot right out of her soapy CW show, “90210,” AnnaLynne McCord made headlines when she inadvertently tweeted out a NSFW photo of herself on January 10. It quickly became clear that she took the photo at the wrong angle, exposing a bit more of herself than she had expected to. After realizing her Twitter faux pas, she laughed off the incident. “This is for you, @meganraee You Rock! Xxx,” she initially tweeted, including the nipple-baring photo. She later added, “Hahaha! Megan, you feel like sharing? Very funny I actually LOL-ed xxxA.” When MTV News had the chance to speak to McCord during her trip to the Sundance Film Festival , she had a very amusing response to the tweet. “I am going to tweet myself naked all the time. I mean I am going to be a press whore from here on out. This is awesome,” she joked about the headline-making incident. “You know what’s so crazy to me, it’s the sensationalism. I mean so disappointing, I’m sorry for everybody who thought I was going to be naked. You see more of me naked as Pauline in [‘Excision’]. “Anyone with half of a brain knows it was an accident,” she continued. “I have a very small areola and I have to get a magnifying glass to make sure that it’s not in pictures in the future. That’s the moral of the story.” McCord had a few more laughs at her own expense, adding, “The moral of the story is not to stop taking pictures of yourself naked. We all like being naked. Just make sure that the little bit of your areola isn’t in the picture before you send it to a hundred billion people.” How did AnnaLynne McCord handle her Twitter photo faux pas?

‘Breaking Bad’ Star Aaron Paul: ‘I Know How It Ends’

Posted on January 23, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘It’s going to be pretty intense,’ he promises MTV News at Sundance about the ‘Bad’ finale. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston in “Breaking Bad” Photo: AMC By now, “Breaking Bad” fans are well aware that Walter White (Bryan Cranston) is the danger. He blew the face off of an ingenious criminal drug lord in a dramatic seasons-long showdown. He secretly poisoned a little boy as a means to manipulating his on-again off-again business partner into helping him kill said drug lord. Ladies and gentlemen, make no mistake: four seasons deep, Walt has finally broken bad. With only one season remaining before “Breaking Bad” closes the meth lab for good, it’s anybody’s guess how the saga of the cancer-stricken chemistry teacher-turned-murderous meth manufacturer will ultimately resolve itself. But there is one person who claims to know how the AMC drug thriller ends: Aaron Paul, the anything-but-“Bad” actor who stars on the show as reluctant drug slinger Jesse Pinkman. “I know how it ends,” Paul told MTV News at the Sundance Film Festival , where he’s promoting the release of his new movie “Smashed.” You wouldn’t think Paul would spill any further details, but he proceeded to drop a bombshell bigger than the one that took out Gus Fring . “Jesse dies,” he deadpanned. And just like Fring, our jaws dropped to the floor at the stunning revelation. But true to Pinkman’s prankster ways, Paul immediately cracked up and cleared the air. “No, no, no! He doesn’t die! Or maybe he does,” he continued ominously. “I don’t know! Actually, I have no idea what’s going to happen. But I’m excited to see [it play out].” No matter how “Breaking Bad” reaches its conclusion, it will all come to an end one way or the other, sooner rather than later. “[There are only] 16 more episodes, and then we’re done,” Paul said. “We start shooting at the end of March. I think it’s going to be a full sprint to the finish, and it’s going to be pretty intense.” The 2012 Sundance Film Festival is officially under way, and the MTV Movies team is on the ground reporting on the hottest stars and the movies everyone will be talking about in the year to come.

TV Nudity Report: Shameless, House of Lies [PICS]

Posted on January 23, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Shameless is really picking up the slack for the rest of Showtime ‘s Sunday lineup: out of the four nude scenes featured on the premium network last night, three of them came courtesy of Emmy Rossum & Co. Emmy bared boobs in a dimly-lit dream sequence, and Laura Wiggins showed shadowy suck sacks doing her teenage side piece doggie-style. But the surprise this week was Molly Price , who used a body double on last week’s episode but this week showed off her own set in bed with William H. Macy . Unfortunately, our first glimpse of Molly’s mams will also be the last, as her character’s heart gave out during the flesh session. Then on House of Lies , Amy Landecker guest starred as a wealthy wife whose idea of hospitality is flashing her funbags and riding Don Cheadle like a horse in her kinky basement dungeon. Those cute cups put the “B” in BDSM! More pics after the jump!

You heard it here first, folks: our Skin Skout is at the Sundance Film Festival this week, and he reports that That ’70s Show and Are You There, Chelsea? star Laura Prepon makes her nude debut in the indie flick Lay the Favorite ! Based on Beth Raymer ‘s memoir about her adventures as a bookie, Lay the Favorite stars Rebecca Hall as a down-on-her-luck stripper who gets skinvolved in a gambling ring after relocating to Vegas.

Lay the Favorite is currently playing film festivals, so for all the nudes on where to catch Laura Prepon ‘s lovely peaches, stay tuned right here at the Mr. Skin blog!

Tom Cruise Sings ‘Like An Opera Singer’ In ‘Rock Of Ages’

Posted on January 22, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘He’s Superman to me. He can do anything he sets his mind to,’ co-star Malin Akerman says. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Tom Cruise in “Rock of Ages” Photo: Warner Bros. Pictures PARK CITY, Utah — He can run. He can climb cliff sides without harnesses. Heck, he can even scale the surface of the world’s tallest building . And now, for his next trick, Tom Cruise will truly do the impossible: sing his heart out in front of moviegoers nationwide. The “Mission Impossible” actor will next be seen as fictional rock god Stacee Jaxx in “Rock of Ages,” director Adam Shankman’s adaptation of the Broadway musical. If you think it’s bizarre casting, take it from Cruise’s costar, Malin Akerman — according to her, there is literally nothing that Cruise can’t do, carrying a tune included. “He’s brilliant. You’re going to be blown away,” Akerman told MTV News at the Sundance Film Festival , which she’s attending as an ambassador for the Brita FilterForGood Music Project campaign. “His voice is ridiculous.” Akerman should know. As reporter Constance Sack, she only has one musical number in “Rock of Ages” — a cover of “I Want to Know What Love Is” by Foreigner — which she sings opposite Cruise. “I auditioned with Cruise. We did our scene together and then I had to sing in the studio [for a musical audition],” she said of landing the role. “My role was actually one of the last ones cast, so I was the last onboard and had the least amount of prep [time]. It was nerve-wracking, to have to go in and sing in the audition.” But Akerman says any anxiety was transformed into elation when performing opposite Cruise, a Hollywood icon she likens to an equally iconic superhero. “He’s Superman to me. He can do anything he sets his mind to,” she said, adding that on top of his talent as an actor and his ability to perform breathtaking stunts, Cruise can also “sing like an opera singer.” “When you’re with Tom, you give it your all,” Akerman said. “It was really amazing and surreal.” The 2012 Sundance Film Festival is officially under way, and the MTV Movies team is on the ground reporting on the hottest stars and the movies everyone will be talking about in the year to come.

‘Dark Knight’ Director Christopher Nolan Is ‘Phenomenal,’ Cillian Murphy Says

Posted on January 22, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘Red Lights’ star looks forward to Nolan’s final Batman film, as well as a potential return to the ‘Tron’ universe. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz “The Dark Knight Rises” movie poster Photo: Warner Bros. Pictures PARK CITY, Utah — Despite photo and video leaks from the set, two trailers, one prologue and plenty of interviews, there are still several unanswered questions surrounding “The Dark Knight Rises.” Chief among them is the rumor that Cillian Murphy , who played the fear-mongering Scarecrow in “Batman Begins,” will return once more to Gotham City when Christopher Nolan’s final round with the Caped Crusader rolls in front of audiences in July. For his part, Murphy has kept his lips shut on any surprise “Rises” cameos — though given that his psychotic psychiatrist Jonathan Crane appeared very briefly at the beginning of “The Dark Knight,” a return appearance for Nolan’s final Batman movie seems likely. But even if he doesn’t terrorize Bruce Wayne one last time, Murphy is very eager to see what Nolan has in store for the trilogy’s conclusion. “I’m looking forward to it,” the actor told MTV News at the Sundance Film Festival , where he’s promoting his paranormal thriller “Red Lights” from director Rodrigo Cortes. “Any film that Chris Nolan makes … he’s got a good track record. He makes amazing movies.” “It’s been a huge honor to work with him,” Murphy added. “He’s just phenomenal.” One villainous turn Murphy was allowed to speak about a bit more freely was his all-too-brief appearance in “Tron Legacy.” The Irish actor had a very small but potentially crucial role as Edward Dillinger Jr., son of original “Tron” villain Ed Dillinger Sr., and it seemed as though he might have a bigger and badder part to play in subsequent “Legacy” sequels. “Talk about being in a movie for a ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ [role],” Murphy laughed when his “Tron” cameo was brought up. “I was just such a fan of the original, and they asked me if I wanted to be in it. I said, ‘Absolutely. Anything you want.’ ” But as for whether or not he’ll come back for more “Tron,” Murphy remains unsure. “I don’t know,” he said. “It was just a buzz to be in that movie, even for [one scene].” The 2012 Sundance Film Festival is officially under way, and the MTV Movies team is on the ground reporting on the hottest stars and the movies everyone will be talking about in the year to come.

Daniel Radcliffe Is ‘Phenomenal,’ Elizabeth Olsen Raves

Posted on January 21, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘Martha Marcy May Marlene’ actress is getting ready to star opposite Radcliffe in the thriller ‘Kill Your Darlings.’ By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Cillian Murphy and Elizxabeth Olson Photo: MTV News PARK CITY, Utah — Daniel Radcliffe is no longer just the Boy Who Lived — at this stage, he’s the Man Who Flourished. Indeed, Radcliffe has kept his post-“Potter” career very interesting, what with a turn as a horror lead in next month’s “Woman in Black,” a lengthy run on Broadway in “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” and even a hosting stint on “Saturday Night Live” earlier this year. He’s set to keep his fans guessing even further with his next confirmed movie, “Kill Your Darlings,” which tells the tale of how Beat Generation icons Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac and Lucien Carr first met — and how that meeting eventually led to murder. Radcliffe plays Ginsberg in the film, and starring opposite him is up-and-coming actress Elizabeth Olsen. The brilliant young star of “Martha Marcy May Marlene” spoke with MTV News about joining the cast of “Kill Your Darlings,” making her admiration for the “Harry Potter” star very well-known. “He is so phenomenal,” Olsen said at the Sundance Film Festival , where she’s repping the paranormal thriller “Red Lights.” “He’s an incredible person. He’s so funny and smart and fun. He’s such a good guy.” Olsen is just one small cog in the greater machine of “Kill Your Darlings,” according to the actress. She said she only appears in “three scenes of that movie” as Edie Parker, girlfriend of Jack Kerouac. “Edie Parker is the one who introduced Ginsberg to Lucien Carr and Jack Kerouac,” she explained of her role. “She’s kind of the glue between them. I’m just there for a few scenes to explain that part of the story. But her personal life is really, really incredible.” The 2012 Sundance Film Festival is officially under way, and the MTV Movies team is on the ground reporting on the hottest stars and the movies everyone will be talking about in the year to come.

Emma Roberts Channels Ke$ha In ‘Celeste And Jesse’

Posted on January 21, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

‘I got to bring together every pop star and fold it into one person,’ actress tells MTV News. By Josh Wigler, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Elijah Wood and Emma Roberts Photo: MTV News PARK CITY, Utah — Emma Roberts has always been a friend to MTV News, particularly at the Sundance Film Festival . Last year in Park City, we were fairly sure that we got Emma to drop a massive “Scream 4” spoiler — namely that she wasn’t going to survive her encounter with Ghost Face — and we were right … partially. At this year’s Sundance, our conversation with Emma was not so grim. The up-and-coming actress has a starring role in “Celeste and Jesse Forever,” a comedy about a divorcing couple struggling to maintain their friendship during an intense period of transition. In the film, which also stars co-writer Rashida Jones , Roberts goes against type as a pop star named Riley, who is an amalgamation of various musical icons. But according to the actress, there’s one particular singer she took her cues from. “I got to bring together every pop star and fold it into one person,” she told MTV News about her role in the film. “[But] my hair is definitely Ke$ha . I have these fabulous long, blond, slightly ratty extensions. I miss those dearly.” Of course, hair alone does not make a pop star. Roberts had to sing and dance to get into the role, rocking out with a dance anthem that was co-written by Jones herself. “We recorded a song that Rashida co-wrote with a bunch of people, and it’s just wildly entertaining and inappropriate and it’s kind of a dance anthem. It was fun,” she said. “You know when you listen to songs and they yell at you to have fun? That’s kind of what we decided to do, because I love being yelled at to have fun and dance!” Who doesn’t?
