| As we near the end of the '00s (we say "oughts"), we look back at the really bad movies -- the lows of a decade that brought us such big-screen gems as these flicks: a breakdancer wakes up from a coma 20 years later, two African-American men disguise themselves as white girls ... and America's Sweetheart portrays an unstable stalker. And those are just some of the high-concept offerings. Check out our countdown of the 40 worst movies of the 2000s. Let us know if we missed your (least) favorite film, or if we included one of your (real) favorites. Read on -- and enjoy. ( incomprehensible cheese-fests ) | |

| Ive been dealing with endometriosis for a long time. Ive had laproscopic surgery once 3 years ago. Then after that i was on Lupron for a year and a half. Before that and between everything ive taken nearly every kind of birth control. Within the past 5 months ive been hurting so bad i can barely move. I hardly make it at work and come home and cant get out of bed. Its like this every day. No pain medicine really helps. I started having stomach pains and went to my GI doctor who did some tests and decided that he thinks in endometriosis very bad all the way up my stomach. I went to my obgyn who wanted to the surgery again and said he might have to do it every couple of years. But then he called me the other day and said he would rather not do the surgery because he think my case might be so bad that i should see a specialist. He said that i should have the DaVinci robot surgery. Has anyone had this or heard of it? If you are in the Dallas area go you know any good doctors that do this surgery? I am so sick of being in pain. I feel like im stuck in a dead end and its horrible. :( - Mood:crappy

|  Enjoying the wintertime sunshine, Hilary Duff was looking ever-so-lovely as she made her way around Hollywood, California on Thursday (December 10). The former “Lizzie McGuire” star was dressed casually in a Morrisey t-shirt, grey trousers, boots and a colorful scarf, toting her coffee mug in-hand as she passed by pursuing paparazzi. In related news, Miss Duff recently chatted with Nylon magazine about her “Shine” tattoo located on her hand, saying, “It’s just for me to look at and remember. I feel like it’s easy to lose your shine, to lose that special thing about yourself.” Hilary continues, “When you get busy or you get tired and you feel like everything is fake or the world is against you, it’s important to keep your character and to let your light shine.” ( ++++++++++++++ ) | |

|   Top 10 Breakout Stars of 2009The equation for breakthrough star is quite simple: one part charisma, two parts talent and just a whole lot of luck. (Well, our formula might not be precise but you get the picture.) And the breakout performer must connect with an audience with a role that leaps off the screen. 2009 was a great year for breakout stars; here's our list of actors for whom 2009 will be just the beginning of a long, fruitful career.

|  A couple weeks after “Star Trek” opened with a $75 million first weekend and Chris Pine went from largely unknown actor to global superstar, the 29-year-old actor found himself a target of the paparazzi, who convinced there was something going on between him and “The Hills” star Audrina Patridge.
A couple weeks ago, MTV News honored Chris as one of the people we’re most thankful for in 2009, and during a wide-ranging conversation about the “Trek” franchise and the future of his career, talk inevitably turned to one thing Chris ain’t so happy about in 2009: those pesky photogs that targeted him earlier in the year.
“I certainly despise them with all my soul,” he said. As prepared for the intrusion as he was before the blockbuster success of “Trek,” Chris admitted there’s truly no way to prepare for the reality of paps staking out your home and waiting to snap snap snap as soon as you emerge into daylight. “ In terms of the private life stuff, I understood what would or could happen because of my involvement in something so big, but you don’t really understand it until it starts happening and people are waiting outside your house,” he said. “And I live in an apartment on a busy street. It was pretty brutal when the movie first came out, and then it dies down and the paparazzi lose their interest and go after the next flavor of the day.”
For all the hassle of increased media attention on his personal life, Chris characterized the tabloid spotlight as a fair trade-off, or as he put it, “ the deal with the devil you make.” “I would say that artistically it’s been everything I wanted,” he continued.” ‘Star Trek’ has afforded me the luxury of choice in terms of what I want to do and where I want to take my career,” he said. “I don’t know how long that will last for, but certainly right now I’m enjoying that immensely.” Source I volunteer myself to be Capt. Fine's bodyguard and protect him from the paparazzi... | |

|  Six months ago my bestie tried in vain to convince me that the stud chick who'd outed Remy Ma three years ago on The Cliffy Barz show was new Young Money it girl Nicki Minaj [click here and here if you missed that]. One reason I didn't believe my friend is because the stud in the video said she came from The Bronx and Nicki hails from Queens. Second, though the studly chick sounds like Nicki, she didn't look like Nicki AT ALL to me. But my bestie argued that Nicki had gotten her nose and teeth fixed. ( proof(?) )source. | |

|  [Trevor] Neilson's specialty wasn't deciding where philanthropic dollars could be spent most effectively; it was advising benefactors on how to use their giving to enhance their public image. This became clear when Jolie launched her thinly veiled broadside on Madonna over the adoption of baby David. Assuring the media that she was 'horrified" by the attacks on the singer, Jolie proceeded to dig the knife in. 'Madonna knew the situation in Malawi, where [David] was born," she sniffed. 'In that country, there isn't really a legal framework for adopting. Personally, I prefer to stay on the side of the law." Of course, Madonna had in truth adopted the baby legally and had not flouted any of Malawi's laws, as Jolie implied. So why did she appear to undermine the humanitarian efforts of another celebrity? The answer is Trevor Neilson. ( Angelina doesn't lick Brad's asshole behind this cut )Source~shocking~ I'm still waiting for the excerpt where Angie licks Brad's asshole. It's coming, I know it is. | |

| Pee-Wee Herman: ‘Taylor Lautner’s Playing [Me] In The Movie’
LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
Will a “Twilight Saga” star be stepping into Pee-Wee Herman’s white wingtips?
“Taylor Lautner’s playing Pee-Wee in the movie. That’s what I understand,” Paul Reubens, in character as Pee-Wee, joked to Access Hollywood on Monday.
The “Pee-Wee’s Playhouse” star is making a comeback with a new stage show in Los Angeles, debuting at Club Nokia in January – and he added that a pair of movies are in the works.
“There’s going to be at least two new movies. Most people don’t know about it, yet, including all the studios,” he laughed with his trademark “ha-ha.” “I’m sure there will be in my lifetime.”
As for the reason to resurrect his famous character, Paul said he just felt Pee- Wee calling.
“I just got up one day and felt like I’m gonna come back, that was it,” Paul said. “I just felt like, ‘Not doing that much, might be fun to rehearse a show for weeks and weeks and weeks.’”
In the meantime, the funnyman has been involved in scientific pursuits.
“I’m involved a lot with the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena, space exploration,” he said. “We just discovered water on the moon, I’m sure you’ve heard about that. In my spare time.”

| Flight of the Conchords TV show is no more. Bret, Jemaine and James (co-creator/director) said “we’ve noticed the less we say about the future of the show, the more people want to talk about it, so in an effort to reverse this trend we are today announcing that we won’t be returning for a 3rd season. We’re very proud of the two seasons we made and we like the way the show ended. We’d like to thank everyone who helped make the show and also everyone who watched it. While the characters Bret and Jemaine will no longer be around, the real Bret and Jemaine will continue to exist. Source | |

MTV axes 'It's On with Alexa Chung'MTV live talker "It's On With Alexa Chung" will not be returning after its second-season finale Dec. 17. Series, hosted by the British TV personality, featured interviews, musical guests and pop-culture news along with an interactive component. Having debuted as an hourlong show in June, it returned for its second season Oct. 19 as a half-hour in a new 3:30 p.m. timeslot. MTV programming prexy Tony DiSanto told Daily Variety the cabler is "100% committed" to a studio-based, live pop-culture show with music and interviews, but indicated that the network is still searching for the right formula. "The difference between these (and scripted shows) is you have to develop these on the air," said DiSanto, adding that "we make the changes until we settle on the show that's what we want." Steve Tseckares, hired by MTV last month as senior veep of special programming and production, said that a revamped program would premiere in January. Until then, MTV will air a mix of repeats and specials in the timeslot. Chung's contract with the network expires early next year, and MTV is "leaving it open" as far as future plans with her. Tim Healy and Sebastian Scott exec produce "It's On" with Reveille's Howard T. Owens and Mark Koops. www.variety.com/article/VR1118012567.html | |

|  Curtis Jackson, also known as 50 Cent, recently sat down with Esquire magazine: It's Fifty, not Fiddy. My mom chose the lifestyle because she didn't choose welfare. Every time I seen her, it felt like Christmas. Everything that was nice in my life was gone when she left, and the only people I saw that had nice things were people from the lifestyle. And they'd look at me and go, Why you look like that? Why your shoes run-down? What led my mom into the lifestyle that got her killed was what led me into the lifestyle: to prevent needing things so much. If I'd had a choice, I would've been a college kid. I would've majored in business. Sometimes you do need to convince yourself through convincing others. ( Read more... ) | |

|  It could have been her most compelling performance in years – but Liza Minnelli has cancelled the show. It has emerged that the 63-year-old singer has unexpectedly settled a long-running and expensive legal battle against her former driver, just days before she was due to appear in a New York court to face accusations that she'd beaten him while drunk and forced him into sex.
Ms Minnelli struck a deal with M'Hammed Soumayah, who was her chauffeur for over a decade before being fired in 2004, to drop a lawsuit in which he sought a total of $100m [£62.5m] for assault and battery, breach of contract, personal injury, and multiple counts of sexual harassment. The terms of the deal are confidential, said presiding judge Paul Feinman, adding that "the entire action has been settled and discontinued". The deal was reached on 13 November, four days before Ms Minnelli would have been required to give evidence under oath.( Click for more bullshit.. )Ridiculous. Princess Liza didn't rape NOBODY. Sigh, but at least it's finally settled.source | |

|  Sundance Institute has unveiled eight films that will participate in its inaugural Sundance Film Festival USA, a new initiative that will spotlight films from Sundance’s 2010 line up in eight cities. As part of the program, filmmakers will travel from the Sundance Film Festival in Park City to cities across America, where they will introduce and screen their original films and engage in Q&As with local audiences. In addition to premiering their work at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, most of the participants have a previous connection to the non-profit Sundance Institute, whether as advisors to the Institute’s directors’ or screenwriters’ labs, or as filmmakers screening in past festivals. In each city an introduction video featuring Robert Redford and highlights from the festival will precede the screenings. The Sundance Film Festival opens January 21 and runs through January 31.

|  Avatar screened last night in London for members of the press and US screenings started this morning. I saw the film first thing today, and embargo keeps me from saying anything about it. Twitter has been fairly quiet, with those who’ve seen it abiding by the embargo so far.
But some UK outlets don’t care as much about the embargo, and there is already a full-fledged review in The Sun and some useful comments in The Guardian. ( TWITTER REACTIONS AND OFFICIAL REVIEWS )UPDATE: according to this guy the embargo has been lifted, reviews are up!
UPDATE 2: Rotten Tomatoes rating is up! | |

| Response to this post where people were calling Paul an asshole for mentioning Heather. In response to today's article in The Mirror It's happened before and it will happen again...the inaccurate article in the Mirror today entitled "Macca marriage to Heather was mistake of the decade" is the most recent example of how things get twisted in the press. So just for the record, here's the original interview from Q Magazine and as you can plainly see, what Paul actually said has been taken totally out of context. ( He talks about MJ, 9/11, Heather, and how much he's worth. ) This post is Paul approved
