Kristen Stewart Apologizes for Rape Comments

After comparing the paparazzi habit of hunting her down and harassing her until they get a picture to rape, Kristen Stewart has been hunted down and harassed by the public until they get an apology. “I’ve made stupid remarks before, and I’ve always reasoned: ‘Whatever. They can think what they want,'” she told People before admitting, “People thinking that I’m insensitive about this subject rips my guts out. I made a big mistake.” [ People ]

So You Think You Can Dance Auditions: ‘Marge Simpson’ Mania

Emergency advice: Now’s a good time to start watching So You Think You Can Dance if you haven’t. After lackluster seasons of American Idol and Project Runway , quality reality programming is making a zesty comeback in the form of Cat Deeley’s danceoff. Stellar judging, magnetic contestants, and now, a sloppy “Marge Simpson” bun on dancer Nicole Knudson are setting this show apart. We’re revisiting last night’s three greatest moments — Nicole’s startling audition (and zany body), the return of two contestants who were eliminated for contractual reasons last year, and the reemergence of an inspiring young robot.

Tate Donovan Bites the Dust

As we’ve learned from the plights of Patton Oswalt and Ryan Devlin this spring, no one is ever really safe from the pilot season recasting phenomenon. The latest actors to be cut just as their pilot goes to series are Tate Donovan and Christina Chang, who were quietly dismissed from ABC’ s superhero series No Ordinary Family after creator Greg Berlanti decided there wasn’t much he could do with their characters. Both actors were told that they could still maybe return to the series in guest star capacities. [ EW ]

VIDEO: Gwyneth Paltrow Shows Us How to Make Tacos, Because Why Not

In her GOOP manifesto this week, actress/lifestyle icon/aspiring Food Network Star Gwyneth Paltrow includes a video in which she prepares a Mexican dinner, family style. I think we can all agree how it’s remarkable that over the course of the six-and-a-half-minute clip, Gwyneth a) doesn’t ostentatiously brag about her utter fluency in Spanish and b) actually speak in Spanish for at least half of the running time to demonstrate said fluency. Also remarkable: the amount of baby food and stomach crunches her punishing personal trainer Tracy Anderson will inflict on her for daring to eat an actual meal . Hope it was worth it, GP. Video after the jump:

Is Game Show Hosting a Lost Art?

Wrestling superstar Chris Jericho has been slated to host ABC’ s new game show Downfall , where contestants must plummet from a skyscraper if they mess up enough. There’s a semi-proud history of game shows with “falling” conceits, but the casting of Chris Jericho provokes an uncomfortable question: Is the era of the born-and-bred game show host over? As ’90s stars like Carnie Wilson and Alfonso Ribiero snatch up emcee opportunities on the Game Show Network to pay the bills, we forget that the procedure of reading questions, dispensing prizes, and yelling “Wrong!” at strangers was once the vocation of a smaller, privileged class. Is a viewer revolt the correct response?

EXCLUSIVE: Here’s the Major Plot Twist Cut from the 90210 Finale

So have you kids kept watching the 90210 reboot? It got kind of fun and cotton candyish this year and the writers made some interesting decisions, like giving more screentime to AnnaLynne McCord, eliminating the original stars altogether (a decision Shannen Doherty is fine with ) and saddling putative lead Shenae Grimes with a season-long downer of a plot. E! broke the news that this year’s finale was supposed to resolve Grimes’s storyline with a major twist, but only Movieline can reveal what the twist actually was before it got cut from the episode.

3 Better Ideas for an LGBT-Based Reality Series Than Logo’s ‘Gay Housewives’

The cast members of Logo’s upcoming “Gay Housewives” series (first called Kept , now called The A List ) comprise a lame procession of models and other, model-shaped people. Former Lance Bass paramour Reichen Lehmkuhl was no more intriguing in 2005 than he is now, and regrettably, the onetime Amazing Race winner is the biggest name slated for the new series. Boring! In 2010, it’s bizarre that a legitimate LGBT -based non-competition reality series has yet to emerge. We’ve thought of three shows we’d love to see in primetime, the kinds of shows that could educate and scintillate.

James Franco to Enlist Mom for General Hospital

According to Daytime Confidential , James Franco will be using his return to General Hospital to promote another member of his acting clan. Word is that his mother Betsy will be joining him onscreen for the soap stint; you may remember the materfamilias from Franco’s work for Funny or Die, where she explained in a very touching story how she had to kill Franco’s cat for pooping too much. Good luck, Betsy! [ Daytime Confidential ]

Jane Lynch Weds

Congratulations to Glee star Jane Lynch, who married her girlfriend Lara Embry in Massachusetts over the Memorial Day weekend. Upside: a big ol’ TV star just got gay-married! Downside: they had to do it in Massachusetts, because gay marriage is still illegal in California, where the two live. [ Star ]
