Which Springfield Will Get the Simpsons Movie Premiere?

Source: www.evilbeetgossip.com

Is everyone else super-psyched for the new Simpsons movie? It doesn’t come out until July, but I have high hopes for it. I’ve been watching The Simpsons for as long as I can remember — I had a “Don’t Have a Cow, Dude” t-shirt when I was like 8 years old that I thought was just the coolest thing on the planet, and a “Cowabunga” beach towel to go along with it. For comparison purposes, I also had like six slap bracelets and my other favorite shirt featured a pony with a bow in her hair, but still.

The television show is set in the mythical Springfield — a very common name for cities in the U.S. — and the writers never let on as to the state in which the Simpson family lives. They want to premiere the film in Springfield — so the question is, which one?

20th Century Fox has invited 16 of the Springfields nationwide to compete for the honor of hosting the premiere. Fox will pick the winner based on short film entries showcasing the community’s positive aspects and links to the Simpsons. (Links to the Simpsons? Like what? “As luck would have it, guys, we have an incompetent police force, a grossly mismanaged nuclear facility and an inadequate public school system! Look no further!”)

“There’s plenty of serious issues to talk about, but this is something that we might as well try to have a little fun with,” said Springfield (which one?) Mayor Sid Leiken.

This is a fun publicity stunt. I sure hope someone puts those short film entries on YouTube (hint, hint, Fox!!!)

Jessica Biel and Ryan Reynolds?

Jessica Biel sure is a slut pretty. She’s just everyone’s favorite rebound girl. After breaking up with Derek Jeter earlier this year, Jessica promptly jumped into bed with Justin Timberlake, who had split from Cameron Diaz mere weeks before. Her latest target is hottie Ryan Reynolds, who ended his on-again-off-again engagement to Alanis Morissette (who?) in early February.

The two hard-bodies were spotted at a dinner date at Santa Monica’s Balabu this week. They would certainly have very hot babies, but, honestly, can’t Jessica give her fellow actresses a tiny bit of breathing room before hopping on their men?

Jess Goes to The Dark Side

Jessica Simpson and John Mayer are totally a couple now and they are starting to look eerily similar. Jess’s hair keeps getting darker and she is sporting a rocker chick look, which is quite a departure for her. This black on black suiting ensemble is not really working for me.

Remember when Jess was a sun-kissed California goddess? I loved that Jess. She was dumb and tan and it worked for me. This dark brooding Jess isn’t really my cup of tea. They both look like they need to lie in the sun and get some serious highlights.

Has John Mayer ever watched her movies or listen to her music? Maybe those famous boobs just got him hooked, or maybe Papa Joe is throwing him some extra cash to make Jess look a little less desperate for a man.

Here are some pics of Jess as she once was.

Amy Winehouse Needs to Go to Rehab

In her hit single “Rehab,” British songstress Amy Winehouse sings that “they tried to make me go to rehab, I said no, no, no.” Perhaps she ought to reconsider. Winehouse canceled two U.K. concerts in a row after going on an alcoholic binge following her break-up with her boyfriend. After her second cancellation, her management issued this statement:

“Following last night’s postponement, and once again owing to unforeseen circumstances, tonight’s show at Shepherds Bush Empire has been postponed. Last night’s show has been re-scheduled for May 28th and tonight’s show has been rescheduled for May 29th. March 8th tickets will be valid for the May 28th show and March 9th tickets will be valid for the May 29th date. Amy would like to apologise to her fans. She hasn’t taken these decisions lightly and hopes that her fans will understand.”

However, spies around London tell a very different story — one of Winehouse bar-hopping all day and night, eventually becoming so drunk she was unable to walk. She had to be dragged out of the bar by a cab driver, says a witness. The troubled singer has a long history of being drunk on stage and in interviews — and was caught with cocaine up her nose by British photogs earlier this year — but this is a new low for her.

The binge was triggered by a break-up with her boyfriend Alex, a London chef. “Amy is gutted,” says a source, which I think is British for “heartbroken.” Hey, Amy, if you’re going to cancel two concerts to get drunk, you may as well cancel a month of concerts and check yourself into rehab, yes, yes, yes.

Outtakes from his Rolling Stone photo shoot. I’m not always on Team Timberlake, but there is something about a man in a wet white t-shirt that does it for me.

Salma Hayek is Preggers

Salma Hayek, age 40, is both pregnant and engaged. Her fiancee is Francois-Henri Pinault, a ridiculously rich and powerful man (technically, according to TMZ, “the chairman of French luxury goods empire PPR SA, which owns high-end fashion houses like Gucci, Yves Saint Laurent, Balenciaga and Stella McCartney”) who has, as of yet, failed to put any of that money or power to good use on the appearance of his face. But that didn’t seem to bother Salma! My guess is his money and his power were instead focused on some sort of in-vitro procedure, because she’s a little old to be getting knocked up just because the rubber broke. Congratulations to Salma!

Friday Music

This video is not impressive, mostly because I think the band itself is very broke, but the song is VERY tasty.

So maybe just launch the song and then go back to your spreadsheet or something. Then find more music by the band and buy it so one day they can hire Dave Lachapelle to film them in something high concept.

The band is Mates of State and the song is called “All Day.” Enjoy!

Yo! The Hills Raps

Source: www.evilbeetgossip.com

Ever wondered what those other dudes from Season 1 of “The Hills” who were buddy buddy with Jason were doing now that their brief moment of fame has ended? We just thought that they were playing nice with Jason for the cameras, but in this moving music video tribute we see that they are saddened by Jason’s recent move to prison.

I find it funny that they a) refrence PerezHilton so they can get on the site b) are “actors” yet have resorted to making YouTube parody videos and c) shower naked together in the video.

Rosie Rocks Star Search

Amidst all the shit Rosie’s been giving AmIdol lately, it’s come to my attention that she got her start on Star Search. So of course I had to look for a YouTube clip of it. And I found one! I think this is probably an All-Stars show or something — there don’t seem to be judges or stars awarded. But still. Rosie is much thinner, much nicer, and wearing cute make-up. Where did this Rosie go? (Am I, like, so bad for feminism or what? Rosie! Lose weight! Be pretty! Be nice! You were so much better when you were conforming, darling.) Enjoy!

Dear America: You Are Retarded

But please continue visiting our fine site and clicking on ads. Just stop voting for American Idol. Leave that to me, and other people who are not retarded.

Love,
