charlize-theron-esquire

-It looks like the Mad Max press tour is going to be fun. First we had Tom Hardy’s Esquire feature, and now it’s Charlize Theron‘s turn to get candid. In the interview, she gushes about how “hot” fiancé Sean Penn is, and opens up about the onset tension with Hardy.

-There’s a video of Dennis Quaid totally losing his mind on set that went viral today, but is it fake? For the love of Baby Blue Ivy, please tell me it’s fake. I don’t want to not like him.

-Warning: looking at these photos of Idris Elba in Cannes might actually make you pregnant.

-More proof that I need to be friends with the girl who plays Jane on Jane the Virgin.

–Justin Bieber was reportedly put in a choke hold and exiled from Coachella. How douchey do you have to be to get kicked out of the douchiest place on Earth?

–This is how much Rihanna cares about that video that supposedly shows her doing coke at Coachella.

-Perfect human being Chris Pratt is rallying for a 12-year-old with cancer.

–Joss Whedon apologized for that tweet calling out sexism in Jurassic World, saying it was “bad form.” Notice that he refuses to take back the sentiment, though. #InJossWeTrust

-Aw balls. Michelle MacLaren has dropped out of directing the new Wonder Woman movie. On the plus side, she might have dodged a bullet. And also in the plus column, the Captain Marvel movie has nabbed two female writers and is searching for a female director.

–Jake Gyllenhaal and Rachel McAdams had dinner together and launched a thousand new ships.

-SNL’s Kenan Thompson shared some stories about Bill Cosby being super creepy  on the set of Fat Albert.

–Drake keeps trying to walk back his reaction to the Madonna kiss, fools no one.

-Just in case you’re wondering, Hugh Jackman is still the nicest guy in Hollywood.

–Essence’s new cover featuring Shonda Rhimes and Ava DuVernay is everything.

-There’s a new Avengers: Age of Ultron clip out, for those of you who were worried there wouldn’t be any cooking jokes.

-Poor Jimmy Kimmel had to herd the (possibly drunk?) cast of Avengers: Age of Ultron into playing Family Feud — which none of them had apparently ever seen. The result is some damn fine TV.

Rebel Wilson Talks Smizing and Famous Friends

REBEL-WILSON-ELLE-AUSTRALIA

–Rebel Wilson is not one of those comedians who has to be “on” all the time. She tells Elle Australia she would go “psycho” if she constantly tried to be funny.

-Netflix drops the new Kyle Chandler show Bloodlines tonight. The performances are getting rave reviews. The show itself? Not so much.

–Madonna‘s dream date is Drake?! Oh man, she would eat poor Wheelchair Jimmy alive.

-First, Eva Mendes took away our fake boyfriend. Now she’s trying to take away our sweatpants.

-Holy crap, Us Weekly just coughed up a full retraction of their story about Kendall Jenner reaction to Bruce Jenner‘s transition. You don’t see that everyday.

-Ever wonder would happen if Lena Dunham’s Girls character joined Seth Meyers‘ writers room? Now we know.

–Jessica Lange is no longer going to be on American Horror Story, but she had no problem throwing tons of shade at Lady Gaga‘s casting news.

-Cripes, True Detective! I’m really trying to give season 2 the benefit of the doubt, but you’re already making it so. damn. hard.

-Not surprisingly, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are no longer super tight BFFs who enjoy braiding each other’s hair and texting about Scandal.

-When I first heard they were remaking Little Women I thought it was a terrible idea, but I’ve totally 180’d after learning it’s in Sarah Polley’s hands.

–Michael Buble admits he was a “jerk” to his exes. As someone who was covering celebrity gossip fulltime during his jerkiness heyday, he’s not wrong. (Though I did take perverse pleasure in regaling my mother with all the gross stories I was hearing about him at the time…)

-This trailer for Fox’s upcoming Wayward Pines looks truly terrifying. (Although it stars Terrence Howard so I’m giving it a hard pass.)

-Speaking of shows I refuse to watch because of Mr. “Women Are Unclean,” last night’s season finale of Empire blew everything else away. After 10 weeks of growth(!), it drew 16.7 million viewers(!!) and surpassed Big Bang Theory as broadcast’s top-rated show. Bananas.

-Another day, another TV show oral history — this one on Mad Men. (Did you know Christina Hendricks‘ agent dropped her for doing the show?)

–Joseph Gordon-Levitt will produce and star in a Fraggle Rock movie. Your move, Jason Segel.

-Another great article on how The CW is changing the future of TV. Now that the The Good Wife has been circling the toilet the last few episodes, the only dramas I catch on the regular seem to be on the CW, which is crazy. But from the surprisingly feminist The 100 to the emotional rollercoaster that was this week’s Flash, they’re killing it.

-This new TV spot is my favorite trailer yet for Avengers: Age of Ultron. It’s got that trademark Joss Whedon sass.

-Here’s the first trailer for Paper Towns, the latest adaptation from YA author (and my YouTube hero) John Green. I’m still not convinced that Cara Delevingne is anything more than walking eyebrows but damn, this looks like my jam.

Jennifer Lopez’s Leaked Photos Prove She Doesn’t Need Photoshop

-In her unretouched photos, Jennifer Lopez still looks better than I would after eleventy million hours in a makeup chair. So that makes me feel great.

–JLo also says she blamed herself for her cheating exes. (That’s sad. If she wants to cheer herself up, I have some unretouched photos she could look at.)

-For some reason, Leonardo DiCaprio‘s rep is vehemently denying the only thing that’s made Leonardo DiCaprio slightly interesting in years.

-Assume crash position: Chris Brown is now a father.

-It was the last straw for his girlfriend Karrueche Tran, who tweeted, “Listen. One can only take so much. The best of luck to Chris and his family. No baby drama for me.”

-First it was Begin Again, and now this. Adam Levine continues to win me over. Dammit.

–Justin Bieber‘s Comedy Central roast promo is a parody of SNL’s parody of Justin Bieber’s Calvin Klein ads. I think? I dunno – I only made it through 0.07 seconds of his shirtlessness before my eyeballs started vomiting.

-Meanwhile, Justin Bieber continues to have a Twitter conversation with Seth Rogen all by himself.

-Speaking of Seth Rogen, he just can’t stop ruining Amy Pascal‘s life. First, The Interview led to the Sony hack which got her fired. And now she can’t move into her new office because it smells like his weed.

-Look, it’s total balls that the female lead of a TV show wasn’t asked to be part of the DVD commentary. But when your show is *thisclose* to being cancelled, airing your grievances with the producers and letting everyone know that there’s behind-the-scenes tension is a bit of a logic boner.

-Rejoice! The Oscars might be going back to five Best Picture nominees.

–This makes me feel much better about not giving a crap about House of Cards. Seriously, there’s too much on right now to waste time on bad TV masquerading as good TV.

-If everyone who is hating themselves for binging the new season of House of Cards had just spent that time catching up on The Americans, the world would be a better place (albeit a place with a lot more intense conversations about wig budgets). Here’s a compelling argument for why you should be watching.

-I love that James Van Der Beek immediately admits in this interview that he’s doing CSI: Cyber so he can feed his kids.

–Mo’Nique claims she was supposed to play Cookie on Empire, is met with the world’s largest side eye.

-I like this article on how The Mindy Project is keeping the main character a mess despite recent, um, plot developments.

-I can’t decide if Chris Hemsworth‘s hosting gig on SNL this weekend is going to be a tremendous success or a terrible failure. The promos are funny, but that’s all on Kate McKinnon. “I touched The Hems! You saw it!”

-Speaking of Thor, it took a lot of tweeting to unlock it, but the final trailer For Avengers: Age of Ultron is here, and it’s pretty effing great.
