Pride and Prejudice and Zombies to Be Mini-Series
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Action, Comedy, Mini Series, Sci-Fi/Horror, Announcements, Gossip, Internet, News, Rumors,
The best-selling parody of Jane Austen’s classic, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, has been given the greenlight by Deadline Productions to make a 6-part television series.
Although talks have circulated around a feature film, it looks as if the mini-series may win the race to adapt Seth Grahame-Smith’s eccentric, fan boy-pleasing novel.
Along with announcing the production news, the book’s Twitter also released possible concept art for the series (seen after the break).
No word yet as to which network is expected to pick up the series; however, it will most likely be a British one, considering the production company is UK-based. As if Sci-Fi wouldn’t love to air a ninja-induced, zombie-killing love story!

Twitter Match for Emmy Rossum and Adam Duritz
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Dating,
Some celebrities date people they work with. Others are set up by mutual agents. Then there are those who actually meet each other online. Dare actress Emmy Rossum recently admitted that her relationship with Adam Duritz actually started as as a dare…on Twitter.
“I was on tour with the band this summer. They invited me actually on Twitter. That’s how we met – on a dare. They dared me to come sing with them a song that I’d never sung before ... So I ended up on tour with the band, and it was very, very fun,” the 23-year-old told a radio station.
So what exactly does Emmy see in the 45-year-old Counting Crows frontman? “I get why chicks dig him,” the soon-to-be divorced Rossum recently told People. “He’s extremely kind, incredibly intelligent, thoughtful, creative and respectful.” Hopefully those qualities will keep her around longer than both Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston, previous Duritz flames.

Madness at Mall for Justin Bieber
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Artist News, Gossip, Videos, Pop,
Vampires weren’t the only ones causing a commotion yesterday.
A scheduled appearance by 15-year-old Justin Bieber ended in chaos and disappointment at a Long Island, NY mall yesterday. According to the Associated Press, nearly 3,000 girls waited - some nearly overnight - for a chance to see the Canadian singer. Unfortunately, their hopes were crushed when the event was abruptly canceled.
Unable to control the massive crowd, police forced the “One Love” artist to pull the plug, even before Bieber had a chance to get into the facility. “They are not allowing me to come into the mall. if you dont leave I and my fans will be arrested as the police just told us,” Justin wrote on Twitter.

Demi Moore Denies Photoshop Claims
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celebrities, Health & Beauty, News, Rumors,
Demi Moore has admitted that she’s become really “skinny” in recent months.
The actress was defending her new body shape after it was claimed it had been airbrushed on the front cover of W magazine to make her appear smaller than she really is.
But the Ghost beauty insists she didn’t receive any digital help and says her hips looked slim, because they are slim.
She wrote on her Twitter, “I don’t have any hips. I love the pic and can only say I wish I had good lighting like that following me around all day. My hips were not touched don’t let these people bulls**t you. I am on the skinny side lately (sic).”
A spokesman for the magazine told Jezebel.com the photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott “did not do anything unusual or out of the ordinary on Demi Moore for the photo on the cover of W. Demi is an extraordinary beautiful woman and we feel our cover reflects that.”

Nicole Richie Being Treated for Pneumonia
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television,
Nicole Richie is back in the hospital, and it has nothing to do with maternity.
The reality TV star was recently admitted after a string of days feeling under the weather. “Nicole has checked into Cedars-Sinai where she is being treated for pneumonia. She is doing well,” Nicole’s rep said.
Over the weekend, the mother of two had spoken about not feeling well. She wrote on her Twitter page: “ok cold, it’s been 6 days. Lets part ways graciously & keep it moving.”
Earlier this week, Nicole was granted a restraining order against two paparazzi who she claims caused her recent car accident. The 28-year-old socialite appeared in court to testify how the two male photographers, Eduardo Arrivabene and Ivon Miguel, had been hounding her constantly. The judge ruled the two men are to stay 50 yards away from Nicole and her two children for the next three years.

Gemma Ward: I Have Said Nothing Will Be Permanent
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Celebrities, Models, News, Rumors,
Never say, “Never” when it comes to the modeling world—even if your agent says so! Case in point: Gemma Ward.
Following an emergence of recent pictures of the model displaying a more average, fuller figure, Ward’s agent claimed that she was not expected to return to modeling “any time soon.”
Ward dispelled such talk via her seldom-used Twitter page: “Thankyou everyone for your support, all i’ll say on the subject is im content with my decision but i have said nothing will be permanent.(sic)”
The dabbling actress went so far as to e-mail an Australian newspaper to further confirm her upcoming return, yet hints that it’ll be sooner than later: “I have not ‘quit modeling’ and my fans back home can expect to see me back at work modeling and acting in the new year.”
So what’s she doing until then?

Ashlee Simpson Defends Curvy Jessica
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Television, Rants,
In a recent interview, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz shot back at the media for commenting on her sister’s weight.
“My sister has an incredible body. I feel sorry for anyone who would judge her, because she’s one sexy lady. It’s disgusting that people would say those things.”
Ashlee, who landed the cover of this month’s Women’s Health magazine, also added that she cannot wait to gain the pounds: “There’s gonna be a time when I’m way curvier, and that’ll be sexy too. What defines sexy is not someone’s weight. Personally I like curves. ... I wanna look good [for me]. I wanna feel good.”
The weighty backlash from Ashlee comes shortly after Jessica wrote an angry post on her Twitter regarding her sister’s swift departure from her show Melrose Place.
Those Simpson sisters sure do know how to get each others’ backs.

Lindsay Lohan Wants Lady Gaga Collaboration
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Style, Rumors,
When she’s not too busy partying or having her personal phone conversations recorded, Lindsay Lohan is tuning into Lady Gaga’s music!
The somewhat-working actress reveals on her Twitter page that she has been obsessed with Gaga’s Bad Romance video and expresses her
desperation in collaborating with the popular artist.
“LADY GAGA IS F*)K!NG EP!C !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i want to do a mini movie music video with @ladygaga in la, nyc, and all over europe. @ladygaga OBSESSED WITH YOUR NEW VIDEO! you’ve just become epic in my book ** [sic]”
I’m not sure if becoming epic in Lohan’s book is a compliment or something to flat-out ignore. If anything, a collaboration with Lohan would be a major downgrade and regression (two words: Labor Pains).
Either way, I have a feeling that the Alexander McQueen-loving Gaga wouldn’t be one to instantly jump on to a collaboration with a fashion house wrecking creative advisor like Lohan.
