Guess Who Almost Played Jack and Rose in Titanic! [Photos]

It’s almost impossible to imagine Titanic without Kate and Leo. In fact, I hardly reference their characters as Rose and Jack. Unlikely as it may seem, a surprising amount of other A-List celebs auditioned for those highly coveted roles. Can you picture Madonna as Rose and Johnny Depp as Jack? Me either. But they auditioned! Also notable are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Can you imagine if the on-set romance would have brought them together back then? They’d have like 14 kids by now! In honor of Titanic’s release in 3D, we put together a list of all the actors and actresses who were vying for Kate and Leo’s spots. If you haven’t had a chance to see the movie in 3D, do so immediately. The visuals are stunning, and the story, well, it’s like watching it for the very first time.

Would you have chosen any of the other contenders? Who is the most shocking?

Your Heart Will Go On…In 3D! [Video]

The new Titanic 3D trailer was released and, shocker, it’s basically the same as the original one. Does this make us any less excited to haul it to the movies once (or seven times) again to squeal when Jack draws Rose all nakey or shed silent tears for all the poor kids who weren’t special enough to make it into a lifeboat? Of course not!

While the re-release of one of our generation’s most epic movies causes our heart to pitter patter with delight, we can’t help but think this whole 3D business isn’t really suited for a movie like Titanic. I mean, really, think about it… Read More »


Turtleneck or Crew Neck: The Celebrity Circumcision Game

There has been a bit of discussion recently among our writers over whether or not our favorite celebrity dudes are circumcised or uncircumcised. Now, before you ignore the larger issue here and ask why the hell they’d talk about such a bizarre thing — just accept that they tend to let our minds wander and conversations drift from time to time.

Now, back to it. There are strong opinions when it comes to penis…uh…styles (can I say that? does it sound weird?). Imagine if you were one of those girls who was all like, “Gah! What is that? Pause while I WebMD this sitch” every time she came across an uncut dude. What would you do if your ultimate celeb crush came along, totally DTF, and he was sporting more than you bargained for? Would you tell him to move along? Or would you gamely explore foreign territory?

While we can’t coach you through the make-it or break-it moment, we can give you the dirt on who has an elephant trunk in their pants…and who doesn’t. Before we reveal the answers, though, see if you can guess what each of these men are working with… Read More »

10 Actors That Have Aged Spectacularly Well

Remember the days when John Stamos was best known for his mullet role on Full House instead of Glee? When Leonardo DiCaprio was the teen heart throb from Titanic instead of the guy who stared in the freaky dream movie? When Brad was still with Jen and and George Clooney was the hottie on ER?

I do…vaguely.

A lot has changed since our early years. Preteens today are swooning over the Jonas Brothers and Justin Bieber rather than Leo and co. But just because these heartthrobs are no longer teens, doesn’t mean they’re any less hot. Or any less worthy of our swooning.

So, for your viewing pleasure I’ve put together a gallery of the ten actors that have aged oh so well, with evidence of their hotness both then, and now.

Get ready to drool in 5, 4, 3, 2….

Gossip Cheat Sheet: Everyone Is Having Babies!

Lately, it seems like celebrities are doing things in groups more than usual – one week it was engagements, the next week it was breaking up, and this week, it’s all about babies. Add in some relationship rumors and Britney making yet another comeback, and you’ve got a pretty good week for Hollywood.

A Snow Day Filled With Long Naps

1. Britney’s back, bitches! You didn’t expect her to be gone for long, did you? Britney released her amazing new single, ‘Hold It Against Me’ this week, and it immediately made it to the top of the iTunes charts AND broke radio records. It leaked on Monday afternoon, even though it was supposed to be released at midnight. I, for one, cannot wait for the music video. In more awesome Britney news, she’s rumored to be performing at the Grammys. Yet another reason to watch.

2. Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson are both having babies at the same time. With different people, obviously. Kate announced her unplanned pregnancy with her boyfriend, Matt Bellamy from Muse. I’m guessing this means no A-Rod reunion any time soon. Owen announced he was going to be a father on Monday, Jan. 11, with his girlfriend Jade Buell. Do I hear wedding bells in the future for either of them?

Gossip Cheat Sheet: Holiday Love

Ahhh the holidays! Time for cookies, ornaments, drinks, and songs!  And lots of love.  Tons of new couples are blossoming, but how many will really make it into the New Year?  Probably not many.  But that’s Hollywood!  There’s new couples, marriages, and a bunch of crazy as usual.

Big Plate of Assorted Holiday Cookies

1. Are Ryan Gosling and Blake Lively dating? It certainly looks like it! The two have been spotted several times over the past few months, but this week they were seen at an after-party for Ryan’s new movie Blue Valentine. Apparently they were quite snuggly.  Fun-fact: Blake was in Paris the day before! It must have been really important for her to be at the after-party.  This could be serious, or not since Blake recently split from ex Penn Badgley earlier this fall.  Watch out Blake, Ryan’s ours.

2. Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are finally getting hitched this weekend!  It’s about time.  These two have been dancing around the idea of marriage for years, but it’s finally happening.  It looks like the wedding will be at Lionel Richie’s house and tents have been put up throughout the week.  Congrats!
