During a press conferece  in Venice, actor and perpetual bachelor, George Clooney kept totally cool when he gets an unusual question from an admirer in the crowd. He didn’t seem surprised, nor were his feathers ruffled when the man proclaimed his love for George and said:

“George! Take me! Choose me, Please! Please choose me George!  May I kiss you please? Just one kiss!”

For a minute there I thought I was watching a scene from a Borat movie.

Clooney’s reaction was classic. He remained cool, calm and collected and totally owned the moment. He told the buff admirer:

“It’s hard when you take a big chance and it really doesn’t work. It’s always embarrassing when you take one real swing for the fences and it just falls flat. It’s a good try though!”

Yep, he stayed cool as a cucumber, continued cracking jokes and interestingly, complimented the man’s tie adding:

 ”There’s little ambulance on its way here. You stay there, we will get back to you.”

He was obviously dissing the man’s package size.

Then when someone from the Daily Mail gets up to ask him a question, George quips:

Take your clothes off before you answer this question.

I think George meant before you ASK this question, but we all know what he meant.

Personally, I think Clooney rather enjoyed the little (no diss intended) distraction and always seems ready to crack some jokes.
So to you Mr. Clooney…I take off my hat — that’s it though. I promise!

One of these stories I can get totally behind, the other brings a herp infected tear to my eye.

In our house, the viewing habits center around the weird, creepy, paranormal and freakish. In the past six months we have watched every episode of Supernatural, Reaper, True Blood, Lost and Dead Like Me. Not to mention Ghost Adventures and now, Ghost Hunters International. There’s some kind of theme here, but I think for the sake of all involved we’ll just skip that part.

We are pretty obsessed with TrueBlood, an HBO original series centered around the fictional sleepy Louisiana town of Bon Temps, which is based on a series of books by Charlaine Harris, The Southern Vampire Mysteries. The series is a supernatural bonanza featuring a world filled with vampires, shape-shifters, Dionysus goddesses, telepaths, fairies and humans — Southern gothic culture on the skids!

The show, which has become wildly popular, is in its second season, and stars Oscar-winning actress Anna Paquin (The Piano) as telepath Sookie Stackhouse, and up and coming British actor Stephen Moyer, as Bill “Vampire Bill” Compton. Sometime during the filming of the show, Anna/Stephen, Bill/Sookie began dating, making their on-screen romance that much more electrified — the latest news is Stephen and Anna are now engaged. Awwww… From the NYDN:

It’s true love for “True Blood” co-stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer.

The real-life couple, who play lovers in the hit HBO vampire series, are engaged to be married, reps for both actors confimed to People.com.

Paquin, 27, will be playing stepmom to Moyer’s two children – his 9-year-old son Billy and 7-year-old daughter Lilac – from a previous marriage.

Now with marriage in their future, fans of the co-stars can expect the chemistry on-screen to continue in the show’s frequent nude scenes.

“Obviously, if you’re already with that person then you’re not having to sort of get over the ‘Wow, I’m naked with someone that I don’t even know the middle name of!’” said the actress.

As for Moyer, 39, his feelings are mutual: “My girl is hardcore.”

Despite what seems like a hokey concept, this show is well acted and well written — and the sex scenes are pretty awesome. If only porn were this interesting!

It’s not often (in fact NEVER) I sign on to a Hollywood romance, especially one with a 12-year age difference, but I have good feelings about these two and I wish them all the best. Let’s just hope Sheriff Eric doesn’t come between them (a little True Blood insider talk.) Seriously, if you aren’t watching this show, then you get a big fat fail.

Now, on to the really, really, really, really bad news.

The other show we watch religiously (pun intended) is the CW’s Supernatural, which centers around two “demon hunting” brothers Sam and Dean Winchester, played by two of the sexiest male specimens to walk the earth, Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles.

Yet another menagerie of otherworldly creatures plague the brothers, though in this case it’s of biblical proportions, featuring an epic battle between heaven and hell, with Sam and Dean caught in the middle trying to save earth from the Apocalyptic future which may or may not await us. Tune in next week.

Jared and Jensen of “Supernatural” — Hells YES!

Supernatural is great because of a tight script, attention to irony, visceral violence and lots of gore. Did I mention the tasty hotness of Jared and Jensen? Yeah, there’s that.

This series is in its fifth season and the battle between the demons and angels is heating up, and there are many twists and turns as the various seals to hell are broken. In comes the bad news, according to news reports, the vilest creature to walk among us, Paris Hilton, will be making a guest star appearance on Supernatural, which can only mean the final seal of hell is broken and the four horses are upon us. More from
E!Online:

This is going to be hilarious.

Sources tell us exclusively that celebutante Paris Hilton is going to guest star in episode five of Supernatural this season.

Should you freak out? Is she going to be a love interest for the boys? Here’s what we’re hearing…

Details about Hilton’s role are being kept under wraps, but we are advised that freaking out is not necessary. A source close to the show tells us: “The fans should trust [show runner] Eric Kripke.” (We’ve heard the storyline, and when you see it you will die. It’s awesome.)

Supernatural season five premieres Thursday, Sept. 10 at 9 p.m. on the CW.

Well, everyone wants to know how fans feel about this casting decision and all I have to say is, Paris is already an abomination to man and God, so it was simply a matter of time before Hollywood found a way to rid us of one of the plague manifestations which loomed on the horizon, the dreaded HERPETITISYPHILISCHLAMDIONERREA.

Now, if only they could find a role for Lindsay Lohan, the CDC might be able to concentrate on finding a cure for H1N1.

Update on Paris Hilton’s Supernatural guest appearance from TVOverMind.com:

Eric Kripke loves to frak with his legion of Supernatural fans. Last year he had the audacity to ‘go there’ and introduce a lost brother for Sam and Dean, a move that many fans had earmarked as the only event that could potentially see Supernatural ‘jump the shark,’ a fact he acknowledged by including the phrase in the title of the episode. Now Kripke is torturing fans with the news that he has cast anti-celeb Paris Hilton in a fifth season episode of Supernatural. As usual, though, Kripke is hoping fans will trust his instincts.

More details have come to the surface about just what ‘role’ Paris will play, and it seems that Paris may be playing one of the most vicious blood-sucking, soul destroying beasts ever: herself. Okay, not literally, but a demonic baddy that takes on the form of Paris Hilton. Are you starting to see the possibilities here? With a show like Supernatural, that isn’t afraid to title episodes like “Criss Angel is a Douchebag” that feature a thinly veiled effigy of their ‘victim,’ you can expect to see Supernatural pull out the stops when it comes to skewering Hilton. This could be a catharsis for us all.

Producer Sera Gamble confirmed that thought to Chi-Trib’s Mo Ryan. “We’re very excited that she said yes. She plays the role of a demonic creature that takes the form of… Paris Hilton. If you know our style, you know we go pretty funny and irreverent with this stuff, so–expect that. The fact that she wanted to do the episode speaks volumes about her sense of humor. She’s flat-out awesome for playing along. You’ll see.”

Oooo-kay. I have trust issues, but I will withhold criticism, but only if they promise to stake her heart (er, I mean her character of course), shoot her with a silver bullet, spray her with holy water, speckle her with rocksalt — and last, but certainly not least — piss on her ashes.

Then it will be a “cathartic” moment. I knew she’d be some kind of vile creature. It’s that life imitating art thing.

Listen up all you Saved By The Bell closet geeks. Looks like some of the cast members from one of the biggest guilty pleasure shows of all time may get together and appear on the Late Nite With Jimmy Fallon show. Former SNL star, Jimmy Fallon, had Mark-Paul Gosselaar (Zack) as a  guest on his show to promote Gosselaar’s current TV show Raising the Bar. Gosselaar came out  dressed as Zack, in his 90’s garb and stayed in Zack’s character through out the whole interview, complete with looks and winks at the camera and even did a couple of ”Time Outs” where everyone around him freezes. Zack called former castmate Elizabeth Berkley on his 90’s brick phone and asked her if she would be willing to reunite on Fallon’s show. She said she was in. Fallon actually started an online petition to get fans to vote and pledge their support for the cast to reunite on the show. So who knows, maybe a made for TV movie may be in the works or a special reunion show.

At the end of “Zack’s” interview, Fallon wheeled out a huge SBTB display of the cast members and filled in the faces that said they would reunite on the show. Followed by ”Zack” doing a rendition of the “Friends Forever” song with the band which he of course called “Zack Attack”. And since then, Mr. Belding played by Dennis Haskins, was on Falllon’s show and has also agreed to participate.

A question mark must still remains over the face of Screech on Fallon’s SBTB display. Apparently Dustin Diamond will not be participating in the the reunion. And thank goodness for that. Many Fans liked Dustin Diamond as Screech (I never could stand him), but today he is not so popular to say the least. His antics over the years have left a real sour taste in people’s mouths. From his reality show hissy fits to his “Save Screech’s House Fund Raiser” escapade, to his leaked porno flick named “Screeched”. He was also filmed at porno conventions. He has become a real seedy guy, and his personality is that of a complete and utter douche. It is doubtful that fans will care less if  he participates in the reunion or not. In fact it is believed that many fans would prefer that he stay away. Everyone knows that Diamond showing up at this reunion will mean a  potential disaster, and the reunion will end up being all about him. I am not a prude in any sense of the matter, but anybody who has been nick named Dustin “Dirty Sanchez” Diamond should stay far, far away. And if you don’t know what a Dirty Sanchez  is, bring it up around the water cooler at work. Just make sure your boss is out of ear shot.

Now I was never a real  fan of Saved By The Bell and I have never seen an entire show, but it did had a huge fan base. It ran between 1989-1993. “Bayside High School” was set in Malibu, it originally was set in Indinapolis. It was the scene of numerous break ups and love problems. The many problems that high school kids have and of course all of Zack’s silly schemes. A lot of people don’t realize that the show started out as “Good Morning, Miss Bliss,” and originally starred Hayley Mills. Characters Screech, Zack and Lisa Marie were there from the very beginning. You can go here,to listen to the original song of the earlier show. You will understand why the show really needed a LOT of tweaking and a new song. The show then got  revamped and featured a new song. It was going to be called “When The Bell Rings”, but in the end, Saved By The Bell was the title of choice. If you want a blast form the past… you can go here and hear the original SBTB theme song and the “Friends Forever” song  and some assorted cast pictures.

Lots of people may not remember that many other stars joined the cast of SBTB in the past. Denise Richards once got rescued by Slater. Soleil Moon Frye as well as Tori Spelling played Screech’s girlfriends. And believe it or not even Scientologist Leah Remini played one of many of Zack’s love interests. (so glad Zack didn’t join the cult! Take Screech! *snicker*)

The show didn’t end all together with Saved By The Bell. It had one season of Saved By The Bell -The College Years, and then there was  Saved By The Bell- The New Class, which was a tad more successful. That show lasted from 1993 to 2000. But hey, don’t fret there are still DVDs and cassettes of the all the episodes you can buy. There is even a 1995 soundtrack of the show available for all you extra big nerdies.

People Magazine did a whole story on some of the cast members for the 20th Anniversary of SBTB which was on their front cover . 
You may notice they took Screech out of the vintage group shot at the bottom of the cover.
Mario Lopez told people:

“Everybody is fired up. People keep coming up to me saying: ‘When are you guys going to do a show?’

Of course Screech was missing from the interview and the photo shoot for the People issue. Perhaps he was too busy doing another porno. Man you couldn’t  pay me enough. I also read a blurb that Dustin Diamond said the next project he was working on was a tell-all called, “Behind The Bell?” Haven’t heard anything else thus far.
I didn’t talk too much about the gals on the show, and where they are today. Everyone knows that Tiffani Thiessen went on to be a part of 90210. She did do a spoof video on Funny Or Die where she says she has a sh*t ton of stuff to do and says she is just too busy doing cat films and knitting  to participate in the reunion. So according to Fallon’s online petition, everyone is in except Screech, I would call that a rap and get on with the reunion.

But I would totally be remiss if I didn’t talk about the hunkiest cast member of Saved by the Bell…  and I don’t mean Mr. Belding.  I am of course talking about  the ever so yummy Mario Lopez. I never gave him a second look when he played Slater, and most gals liked Zack. I am not partial to blond guys to begin with, but talking about “time being kind”. Mario has aged into one smoldering HOT piece of eye candy.
IS there a man out there better looking than Mario Lopez ? Those dimples! That six pack! Cold shower time.
Over the years Mario has been very busy hosting his butt off from animal shows, to Miss America to  Dancing With The Stars.(he can dance too) He is also involved in the Ronald McDonald House Charities and is a member of their celebrity board. Hunky, wealthy, charitable and he can dance. Wow, he’s a total package. He was named People magazine’s “Hottest Bachelor” last year. Finally I agree with them. So is there a lucky gal in Mario’s life now? Mario was briefly married, but it didn’t last. Can’t say it is at all fair that only one gal should get this man!

Rest assured if Saved By The Bell were to come back as a show again… I would definitely watch it this time around.Wink wink!

The Mad Hatter Ala Depp

Johnny Depp is no stranger to bizarre films. From the beginning with his first movie Nightmare on Elm Street, then on to stranger flicks like Cry-Baby, Dead Man (WTF?), Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka to Sweeney Todd and the voice of Corpse Bride, the man has an insatiable appetite for the bizarre and macabre.

Now Depp and Tim Burton have teamed up once again, for Lewis Carroll’s tale Alice in Wonderland. I am sure Burton will put his signature creepy spin on this film and it may turn out to be yet another cult classic.

Willy Wonka on the other hand, did not fair too well in my opinion. I think it had a lot to do with Willy Wonka fans not wanting to see such a classic movie redone, especially the way it was redone.  Some classics you just have to leave alone, whether it has a big star in it or not. Count me in as one of those people who hated Willy Wonka for those reasons.

I will however give Alice In Wonderland a go as it’s one of my favorite childhood stories.

Now I LOVE John Christopher Depp II (who doesn’t?) and I think he is way up there on the yummy scale. Of course I have liked him since his 21 Jump Street days when he played Tom Hanson. I knew way back then he was going to be a huge star.

My favorite Depp films are simply NOT the strange ones with the big exception of Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas , which is on my favorite movie list. Although it pained me to see Depp made up as the far from handsome Raoul Duke. But he was brilliant, as well as his side kick, Dr. Gonzo played by Benicio Del Torro.

I never cared for Scissorhands, hated Wonka, and was never really a big fan of The Pirates of the Caribbean, although I did enjoy Pirates for the special effects. I am more of a What’s Eating Gilbert Grape (although young Leo DiCaprio stole the show in this flick) and Donnie Brasco fan. I’d be remiss not to mention Benny and Joon  too. Except What’s Eating Gilbert Grape also starred of Juliette Lewis and I have ALWAYS despised that broad, and when I found out that she was a Scientologist, well…let’s just say it explained a lot, to say the least.

But one of my all time Depp movie favorites has to be Don Juan DeMarco. Depp got his sexy on in that movie and had an accent to boot. If you haven’t seen this film, you really have missed out on some serious Depp hunk time. It was muy caliante!  And in the words of Don Juan himself…”No woman has ever left my arms unsatisfied. ”

Excuse me…..cold shower time.

That's One Lucky Gal!

Depp also got to work with one of his biggest idols, Marlon Brando. Depp said the hardest part of working with Brando in this film, was keeping a straight face. And of course let’s not forget the steamy Chocolat. Yum! and I am not talking about the Chocolate.

I have missed Sweeney Todd, Finding Neverland, The Brave, The Libertine and about eight other of Depp’s flicks. This man has a HUGE filmography and even a fan has their limits!

Depp’s newest film, Public Enemies has him portraying outlaw John Dillinger will be in theaters on July 1st. I am sure most audiences will be cheering for the bad guy in this one. And once again, Depp is sexy as hell in his 1930’s pin striped suit.

Back to the rabbit hole, Alice in Wonderland, which is not slated to come out till March 2010 has Depp playing the Mad Hatter, Anne Hathaway as Alice and Helena Bonham Carter as The Queen of Hearts. The film also stars Christopher Lee as the Jabberwock, Allen Rickman as the Caterpiller, Stephen Fry as the Cheshire Cat, Michael Sheen as The White Rabbit and Crispin Glover as the Knave of Hearts. It is complete with gorgeous costumes and 3D computer animation.

Notice the faces in the flowers above?  This is going to be one trippy flick! Depp said playing the Mad Hatter was fun and speaks about the look of the Mad Hatter and jokingly said he was surprised he didn’t get fired from the film:

“The Hatter was awfully fun,” Depp said in a news conference on Monday in Beverly Hills, Calif. “After doing something like John Dillinger, a performance where it’s somewhat restrained because of the responsibility you have to that guy and his memory, that Mad Hatter was like being fired out of a cannon. The Hatter was great fun, and, again, it’s one of those things that you’re just amazed you weren’t fired. I truly am.”

“All I’ve seen, I’ve just seen the little bits and pieces of it, but, yeah, what I ended up looking like is how I thought he was going to look, how I thought he should look, which was one of the first reasons why I’m surprised I didn’t get fired,” Depp said.

In the words of Grace Slick of Jefferson Airplane, who sang the trippy rock/acid song White Rabbit…
“Remember what the dormouse said, feed your head” 

Wonder if they will use this song in the sound track? Or maybe just at the end. Hey Burton…are you listening?

Already confirmed for Depp’s new upcoming projects, are Pirates Of The Caribbean #4 (careful Johnny don’t spread yourself to thin with this one) and oddly Dark Shadows.  I say oddly, because I actually watched “Dark Shadows” back in the day. It was a weird Gothic soap opera about vampires and other creatures, and dealt with time in the past and future in a parallel universe. 

Dark Shadows has Depp written all over it. Don’t know what kind of spin will be put on this one. I personally think Depp should skip this one, but I bet Dark Shadows fans will be champing at the bit.

Johnny Depp is just getting started. Regardless of the premise or the writing of a movie, Depp takes on all roles and is a true chameleon and plays every part with sheer brilliance. Hats off to the many faces of Johhny Depp! Keep em’ coming!

Psych is one of the best shows on television you’re not watching.  Basically, Shawn is not a psychic but he had to pretend to be one in the pilot to get out of trouble with the cops…he notices everything because he was trained by his retired cop father to grow up and be a detective.  Only he grew up to be a loser, until he started pretending to be psychic.  Not only is it funny, not only is James Roday the hawtness, not only does it have The Best Theme Song Currently On TV (I have it on my mp3 player), but in the Tuesday The 17th episode, it got rickrolled.  Sort of.  Dude!

This part doesn’t have the prologue, where there is always a flashback, but here’s the back story:  Shawn and Gus (the two guys in the clip, best friends since grade school) went to summer camp every year where they always paired up in the Camp Pinata Contest.  Well, one year Gus teamed up with golden boy Jason Cunningham and won with a pineapple pinata (you search for the pineapple in every episode) while Shawn, who made a pinata in the likeness of Rick Astley, got stuck working with the kid who wore a jacket all week (complete with obligatory Star Wars reference).  Shawn got so mad at Gus that he drowned his Rick Astley pinata in the lake with a chain anchored to a rock.  Which leads to the theme song, which leads to this opening clip.

Oh, and if you ever wondered what happened to Mallory from Family Ties, she makes an appearance in this episode.  That’s all I’m gonna say.

The whole episode is a takeoff on the Friday The 13th movies.  You have to watch this show!  Srsly.  It’s on Friday nights, 10 PM EST, USA Network.  Set your DVR.  You can also watch episodes online at the link above.

Oh, the Reese’s Cups reference in the title?  I dunno, it’s just how my brain works.

In between the lines there’s a lot of obscurity
I’m not inclined to resign to maturity…

That’s my motto…be good this weekend, I’m outta here!

A little early, I know, but I wanted to share it with all my GlossLip friends before I head out for the weekend.  (Yeah, head out…to the other room!  But if I close my eyes, it’s a vacation in my head.)  So, I wanted to share a very romantic scene from one of my absolute favorite movies, the A&E/BBC version of Pride and Prejudice.  If you’re looking for a romantic movie to watch this weekend, I can’t recommend a better one.  I love the book, but there are times when I simply must watch the movie.

And Colin Firth is teh awsumness.

Don’t eat too many conversation hearts, be safe, and enjoy yourselves…I’m outta here!

First off, Christian Bale could punch orphans in the face and kick box a litter of kittens and I would still have weepy dreams about him, but dude is off the reservation a bit in the audio file linked here.

While filming scenes for Terminator Salvation, apparently it was amateur hour in the lighting department, because the gentleman who raised the ire of Christian had the temerity to wander on set while Bale was shooting a scene, which apparently is some kind of pet peeve of his.

Christian, who is known for having a bit of a “temper” shall we say, used the nuclear option on this guy and dropped every form of the F-bomb known in the English language. Towards the end, Bale was so worked up over this “unprofessional” lighting guy’s transgressions, he not only demanded the guy get canned, but he threatens to kick the guy’s ass. SO DAMN HOT!

To Christian’s credit, he did say “You’re a nice guy, but that won’t f*ckin’ cut it when you’re bullsh*tting around on the set.”

Look, I know everyone’s going to use this as an excuse to wail on Bale (hehe, I rhymed), but I think he’s a bit misunderstood. A guy like Bale takes his job seriously, he clearly gets into his role and into some kind of mental space where he can’t easily slip in and out of reality. Also, some people can have outbursts like this and still be decent people. Yeah, I am talking about myself, so back off.

To put it another way, it’d be like sneaking up on da Vinci while he’s putting the final touches on the Mona Lisa. You just don’t do that sort of thing. And I am sure if you did, Leonardo would shove his paintbrush in your cerebellum.

Ok, maybe not, but still, you get my drift. In the meantime, Christian, if you are feeling stressed and bit overwhelmed, I will cheerfully make you a nice cup of Earl Grey (he’s English and all) and rub your temples, or whatever.

Adam Ant Wonderful – The funniest videos are a click away

I am a complete 80’s New Wave freak. Seriously, there’s very little about the 80’s NW music I can’t recall in the way of names and dates. I was GLUED to MTV. Ahhh the good old days, before I knew about scary cults and famous professional wrestling dads who rub oil between their daughter’s thighs.

I digress….Anyway, I just found this gem, it’s not from 80’s, in fact this was from Adam’s last album Wonderful released in 95. Supposedly this song was written for his ex-girlfriend Heather Graham whom he is alleged to have threatened or some such incident. It turns out poor Adam was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder, therefore that may explain his *interesting* behavior.

All I know is, in the 80’s Adam was THE MAN. I would have done some very scandalous things with Mr. Ant were I not a minor and he a famous singer.

Ok, moment of nostalgia is over. I return you to your regularly scheduled program.
