Chris Hemsworth: ‘I’m More Than Just a Buff Body’
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Features,
The hunky Thor star admits his physique has helped him kick off his acting career which includes high profile roles Marvel's The Avengers and Snow White and the Huntsman, but hopes it is his acting skills which keeps people interested.
"It's helped me get a job, sure. But you hope it's not the only thing that helped," he told GQ, speaking about his body.
Despite his good looks, Chris, 28, remains down to earth and admitted he finds some other actors' pre-shoot rituals strange: "I worked with a guy once who would chant, 'I'm beautiful and I have a secret, I'm beautiful and I have a secret.'"

Lindsay Lohan is Not Happy with Choice of Dick

Lindsay Lohan is very unhappy with the actors who have auditioned for the role of Richard Burton in her new TV movie.
The troubled actress is set to play the late Elizabeth Taylor in Liz and Dick, but is not content with the possible choices - Matthew Settle, Sean Maguire and Craig Robert Young - and wants new auditions to take place in London.
"Lindsay declared that none of the actors were the right fit and that she wanted to go to London to look for a possible Burton actor there. Lindsay is being an absolute nightmare about who should play Burton. She believes Matthew Settle is too old to play the role, and she wants a major A-list star to be her co-star. However, her salary for the role took up a major portion of the budget, and the Burton gig will likely only pay $200,000, max. The producers don't need to get Lindsay's approval of who will play Richard Burton, but they want to keep her happy," a source said.

Lindsay Lohan has yet to sign her contract to play the late Elizabeth Taylor in a new movie.
The Mean Girls actress is set to play the star - who died of congestive heart failure last year - in a forthcoming film for the Lifetime channel, and despite shooting due to start in just a few weeks in Canada she has not yet officially signed on.
"Lindsay is planning on signing the contract this week if all proceeds as scheduled. Lindsay is excited at the prospect of being back on set again. The major parts of the contract are in place and all that is needed now is signatures of Lindsay and the producers of the project," a source said.
Recently it was claimed producers behind the movie were concerned about her ability to tell the truth after conflicting reports of an alleged altercation with Marisa Dugas at the Chateau Marmont hotel.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: D-List, Television, Drugs, Drunk, Rumors, Where Are They Now?,
Dr. Drew Pinsky has stated that he wouldn’t want to treat Lindsay Lohan on his reality series Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, but he’ll lend a helping hand to dad Michael Lohan next season. Reportedly, Michael has joined the cast and started taping... and sources say Lindsay is “upset” and “shocked.”
TMZ reports that Michael Lohan began filming the show without even telling his famous daughter, though she’s certainly got enough on her mind already.
The rest of the Celebrity Rehab cast is rumored to include Tareq and Michaele Salahi (the couple who allegedly crashed the White House), former Mets pitcher Dwight “Doc” Gooden, Chinese-American actress Bai Ling (The Crow, Anna and the King), Jeremy Jackson (Baywatch) and Michael Lohan.

Younger Olsen Sister Making a Big Sundance Splash
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies,
Elizabeth Olsen, younger sister to twin siblings Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, has gone from little sis to very talked-about actress. Olsen is in two films that will be shown at the Sundance Film Festival that are getting tons of buzz.
Olsen plays the lead in Silent House, a movie about a haunted house. She will also be featured in Martha Macy May Marlene, a film about a young woman trying to adjust to life outside the cult she’s just escaped.
“To have a lead be an unknown -- it’s kind of a risk for people to take. And so the fact that they took that risk . . . made my year, my life, I don’t know! It was really exciting.”
Olsen, 21, is three years younger than her famous twin siblings. “I think it’s a really weird part of this business,” she said of being chased by paparazzi, something she’s seen happening to Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen. “When I would go shopping with my sisters when I was younger, it would be dangerous. People would almost get us into car accidents. I just think it’s crazy in general but I want to be an actor.”

Evangeline Lilly Lost Without Show
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Where Are They Now?,
Freckled starlet Evangeline Lilly is “homeless and unemployed.”
The actress admits she has found herself at a loss since filming her final scenes for Lost in Hawaii but has only just realized the extent of her situation.
“I did live in Hawaii and now I am essentially homeless. I’m a gypsy a bit, living out of my suitcase, and I’m unemployed. I was filling out a form at the dentist the other day and I realized when they said ‘Put your address and your occupation’ that I was homeless and unemployed.”
The brunette beauty admits she has always enjoyed moving from place to place as it allowed her the opportunity for reinvention. She explained to talk show host Jimmy Kimmel, “When I was a kid we moved a lot and then when I was in high school I stayed still for a long time. I must have gotten a bit of fever - whatever it was that makes you want to change - because I looked around me and saw people who were different to me and interesting, and I decided I wanted to try to be them. I would move towns - because you can’t change who you are when people know you already - and I would take on a new. I wouldn’t suddenly put on 50lbs and pretend I was a man.”
Paris Hilton Having a Hard Time Finding Friends
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Rumors,
Even though production is scheduled to begin next month, it seems Paris Hilton’s new reality show may be hurting in the casting department.
Believing people would want to become her next discarded friend, the socialite has agreed to play nice with those who yearn to be seen by her side. In Paris Hilton’s My New BFF, the hotel heiress will choose amongst 20 stalkers who will do their best to prove their loyalty to her. (I’m guessing this MTV production will be something similar to A Shot of Love with Tila Tequila sans the sex. Or at least, the bisexuality.)
Unfortunately, rounding up a pool of worthwhile candidates is apparently proving to be more difficult than it may have originally seemed. A recent New York casting call reportedly drew only 40-50 hopefuls in total. What? No one wants to be her dogs’ next pooper scooper?
