Ninja What?! Ninja Who?! Via Page 6 Robert De Niro and Jay-Z got into a tense beef at Leonardo DiCaprio’s birthday bash the other night, when De Niro called the rapper disrespectful, Page Six can exclusively reveal. Spies say “Godfather II” and “Taxi Driver” star De Niro gave Jay a dressing-down in a roomful of celebs including Martin Scorsese because the rap mogul had refused to return De Niro’s calls. Sources add that Jay tried to joke his way out of the situation, and even his wife, Beyoncé, tried to intervene, but De Niro wouldn’t back down. “Bob was sitting at a table, and when Jay-Z went over to say hello, De Niro told Jay that he never called him back,” a source says. Nah ninja, yo’ wife can’t save you in the real world * Lil Wayne voice * A spy then overheard De Niro complaining to the rapper, a fellow TriBeCa resident, about a song Jay-Z agreed to record for the Tribeca Film Festival. De Niro had reached out to discuss further details, but Jay never returned his calls. “Bob wasn’t in any mood to make polite conversation,” the spy says. “He told Jay that if somebody calls you six times, you call them back. It doesn’t matter who you are, that is just rude.” When Jay-Z tried to make a joke of it, saying he is terrible on the phone, a source says, “De Niro kept telling him that he thinks he’s the man, but that he was disrespectful.’ ” “Beyoncé came over, but that didn’t calm Bob down,” the source said, adding that afterward, “It was the talk of the party. Everyone was saying there’s only one star in New York bigger and badder than Jay-Z, and that’s Robert De Niro. He can be quite scary when he’s angry.” Who the hell does Camel Man think he is?! Robert fawkin’ De Niro ain’t playin’ with you, got him blowin’ up your phone like one of these thirsty hoes. Show some respect before you end up sleepin’ with the fishes… Via WENN

Twilight fandom extends interest by association to every cast member’s extra- Twilight projects, and sometimes that vampire bump pays off for relatives, too. Case in point: K-11 , an intense-looking prison drama that’s gotten considerable exposure from the fact that it’s directed by Kristen Stewart ‘s mother, Jules. (The erstwhile Bella Swan was also once attached to star in the film, which, watching this first look at K-11 , would have been very interesting). Also: Goran Visnjic stars! Roll the promo. Oh, did I mention K-11 is about a Hollywood record producer who wakes up in jail after a bender, only to find he’s been placed in the special section for homosexuals and transgender prisoners where Deebo from Friday /The President from The Fifth Element (AKA Tiny Lister) lives? And that Mexican soap star Kate del Castillo rules the coop as a terrifying transsexual named Mousey? Also in this movie: D.B. Sweeney, Ginger from True Blood , Portia Doubleday, Jason Mewes, and reportedly the voice of Kristen Stewart, whose brother Cameron Stewart also appears making his feature debut. Director Stewart Tweeted out a link to the promo trailer from her Twitter account, where she also recently Tweeted about buying her daughter a baguette in Cannes . The film screened there earlier this week for buyers. [via @RealJulesStew ]
