Dakota Johnson Stars in ISIS Saturday Night Live <b>...</b> - Celebrity <b>Gossip</b> Posted: 01 Mar 2015 09:59 AM PST Dakota Johnson has found a way to distract critics from the controversy surrounding Fifty Shades of Grey. By getting herself involved in an even more serious controversy! The actress hosted Saturday Night Live last night, welcoming her parents on stage during her monologue and mocking the sex-based movie for which she's now best known. But it was another skit altogether that generated tons of buzz on social media. For all the wrong reasons. In a pre-taped sketch that makes fun of an ongoing Toyota commercial, Johnson portrays a young woman who bids farewell to her sad father. Except... instead of joining the army (as the daughter does in the aforementioned car ad), Johnson waves goodbye and joins terrorist group ISIS. Over the past several weeks, of course, there has been a surge in the number of female jihadis from Western countries, including the United States, who have traveled to the Middle East to actually do this in real life. ISIS has murdered an untold number of innocent people. As a result, the show and the star got blasted on social media after this parody ad aired. "Dear #SNL, jokes about Isis are not funny. See how much you laugh when you have to see your loved one(s) being slaughtered. No respect," wrote one Twitter user, while another added: "I think it's safe to say I will never watch SNL or any of Dakota Johnson's movies ever again." Taran Killam, however, who stars in the fake commercial as Johnson's father, defended the skit, writing today online: "Proud of this. Freedom to mock is our greatest weapon. Thanks to the writers who asked not to be mentioned by name." What do YOU think? Is anything fair game in comedy? Or did this sketch cross the line? |
'<b>Gossip</b> Girl' Reunion: See Which Cast Members <b>...</b> - <b>Hollywood</b> Life Posted: 23 Feb 2015 11:54 AM PST OMG, you guys! There was a real-life 'Gossip Girl' reunion and our hearts are basically going to explode. Check out the adorable pic immediately!Attention Upper East Siders (and everyone else, as well)! Manhattan's elite recently headed out west for a post-Oscars party, and it reunited some of the Gossip Girl cast! The pic has us feeling all kinds of 2009-nostalgia. Check it out to see who made it from NYC to LA! 'Gossip Girl' ReunionYou know you love her. Xoxo. Admit it: you miss Gossip Girl horribly. It's okay, we do too! That's why this reunion pic has us completely freaking out! In the pic, which was uploaded to Instagram thanks to Kelly Rutherford, we see Chace Crawford, Kelly, Michelle Trachtenberg and Jessica Szohr. Or, how you might better know them, Nate Archibald, Lily van der Woodsen, Georgina Sparks and Vanessa Abrams, all back together again! The best part? Kelly's caption. "So happy to see these beautiful people (inside and out) last night," Kelly wrote. "Chase, Michelle and Jessica." And then she used the hashtag #GG, warming our hearts enough to get us through to spring. A Legitimate 'Gossip Girl' Reunion?Of course, this photo "reunited" some of the Gossip Girl cast, but could an actual GG reunion be in the works? Sadly, I wouldn't count on it. In an interview earlier this year, fellow star of the series Leighton Meester aka the other Queen B, was asked about the prospects of a reunion. "Nope," Leighton said, shutting down the thought completely (as well as our hopes and dreams). Even worse, Leighton's onscreen love interest Ed Westwick echoed Leighton's thoughts in an EXCLUSIVE interview with HollywoodLife.com. "I think we enjoyed ourselves on what we did, but now everyone's off doing their own thing," Ed said. "We're all very happy for one another." Ugh. Well, at least we've got this pic, right? What do you think of the photo? Would you like to see a legit Gossip Girl reunion? – Casey Mink |
Kim Kardashian Makes Like Miley Cyrus - The <b>Hollywood Gossip</b> Posted: 01 Mar 2015 04:15 AM PST Kim Kardashian is making like Miley Cyrus in her latest Instagram post. Via a selfie shared Saturday night with followers, the former sex tape participant stares into the camera (seemingly shirtless), while doing what her fellow entertainer does best: Sticking her tongue out. "UGH just got off a plane, so tired," Kim Tweeted along with the self-portrait. "Have a shoot tonight, need a tan, not in the mood!" Can someone please cue up some violins? We feel oh so awful that a pale Kim Kardashian must get herself in the mood to pose for a photoshoot. At least we can be comforted by the fact that she's about to rake in MILLIONS more for another bunch of Keeping Up with the Kardashians seasons. Kim also knows where her financial bread is buttered. She recently surpassed 27 million followers on Instagram and celebrated the milestone by giving these people exactly what they want: a Kim Kardashian thong shot! That is the only reason one followers Kim Kardashian online... right? Please tell us no one actually cares what she does in her life. Please. |
White and Gold Dress (Or is it Blue and Black <b>...</b> - Celebrity <b>Gossip</b> Posted: 27 Feb 2015 02:04 AM PST The Internet lost its collective mind over two unexpected topics yesterday. First, llamas got loose in Arizona and the subsequent video of people trying to run these animals down caused a meme-based sensation. Second, Tumblr user "Swiked" uploaded the following image of the following dress and wrote as a caption: "Is this dress white and gold or blue and black? Me and my friends can't agree and we are freaking the f-ck out." And for the rest of the evening, nearly everyone on social media proceeded to freak the f-ck out right along with him. Why did wives and husbands spend half their night arguing over the color of this dress? How can folks disagree over such a seemingly basic question? According to Cedar Riener, associate professor of psychology at Randolph-Macon College, it's likely due to how one's brain interprets the light coming into one's eyes. "We are always making decisions about the quantity of light that comes into our retina," Riener tells Buzzfeed, explaining: "In the case of the dress, some people are deciding that there is a fair amount of illumination on a blue and black (or less reflective) dress. Other people are deciding that it is less illumination on a white/gold dress (it is in shadow, but more reflective)." Each individual brings a different set of experiences and expectations to his or her sight, as well as attention levels and particular eye movements. Talk to a cognitive neuroscientist and he or she will say that what you looked at prior to glimpsing the dress could play a role in what color you believe it is. Weird, right? But enough science. Let's settle this once and for all... WHAT COLOR IS THIS DRESS? Stars such as Taylor Swift have even got in on this debate. "I don't understand this odd dress debate and I feel like it's a trick somehow," she Tweeted on Thursday. "I'm confused and scared. PS it's OBVIOUSLY BLUE AND BLACK." For the record: Mindy Kaling thinks it's also blue and black, while B.J. Novak and Julianne Moore are on Team White and Gold. Try not to file for divorce or disown your children are you enter into the fray. (THG NOTE: It's clearly white and gold. Come on!) |
Kanye West Album Title, Cover Art: REVEALED! - The <b>Hollywood</b> <b>...</b> Posted: 01 Mar 2015 10:28 AM PST Kanye West has once again combined religion and music when it comes to his seventh studio album. On the heels of "Yeezus," the rapper announced this week that his next set of songs will comprise "So Help Me God," including along with that reveal an image on Twitter of the upcoming cover art. What do you make of it? Thus far, Mr. Kim Kardashian has released four songs that may appear on the upcoming album:
Is it weird that Kanye invokes a higher power when performing and/or titling his albums? Not to Kanye. "You know, what's awesome about Christianity is that we're allowed to portray God," West once said. "We're allowed to, you know, draw an image of Him, we're allowed to make movies about Him...So that's just what's really awesome about Christianity. That's one of the awesome things." Yeezus contains a track titled "I Am a God," while Kanye's 2002 debut album made a smash hit out of "Jesus Walks." In 2006, West recreated Jesus' crucifixion on the January 2006 cover of Rolling Stone. What do you think of Kanye so often combining religion with rap? |
