Meet Atlanta’s New Housewife For Season 5

In: Donovan, TV Shows

With Sheree Whitfield leaving *cough* fired *cough* from “The Real Housewives of Atlanta“, producers were on the hunt for another woman to hold a “peach” in the opening credits. One would think last season’s “friend of the Housewives” Marlo Hampton would get the promotion like Brandi Glanville did for Beverly Hills (RHOBH). She certainly did bring the DRAMA. While Marlo was indeed embroiled in all the heated action, her extensive rap sheet and inability to make viewers like her proved she was too much of a liability to become an official Housewife. I actually didn’t mind her but glad she’s not sticking around. Using the f-word which rhymes with maggot is not cool.

Even though it’s not official til the fat lady sings, or in this case Bravo releases an official press release, the identity of the new Atlanta Housewife has been revealed. She comes from the beauty pageant world and in fact a former Miss USA winner. Based on height alone (5’10″) she’ll be on Team Talls with NeNe Leakes and Cynthia Bailey. That being said, it’s well known, serious models look down on beauty queens. Will Cynthia warm up to her new cast mate? The new girl is definitely a stunner which naturally makes other women green with envy. Check her out below.

Jewel’s First TV Acting Gig Is…

In: Donovan, TV Shows

For her music debut, Jewel sold an astounding 12 million copies of “Pieces of You“, making it one of the best selling debut albums ever. The album spawned three hits- “Who Will Save Your Soul”, “You Were Meant For Me” and “Foolish Games“. Now 37-years-old, Jewel Kilcher is hoping to achieve the same level of success with her debut in acting. She’s appeared on television before playing herself, but never portraying a different character, until now.

Kilcher has signed on to play the lead in an upcoming biopic for Lifetime. The role won’t be too much of a stretch for the singer, since she’ll be playing a musician. Curious to know who’ll she be portraying? Here’s a hint. Another actress earned an Academy Award for playing this famous woman a few years ago. Keeping reading to find out.

Sylvester Stallone did it. Martha Stewart did it. Hell, even Michael Jackson did it. All three along with Danny Devito and Steve Spielberg made cameos in the previous two “Men In Black” films. With the third installment around the corner, director Barry Sonnenfeld confirmed a trio of celebrities making appearances as extraterrestrials in the film. Here’s what the director revealed:

“One of the joys is deciding who you would put up on the board, who you would tell the world are aliens,” Sonnenfeld tells the site. “And A) the challenge is you have to get permission from these celebrities and B) you don’t want to go with people that are either a flash in the pan, or political, or people that in 10 years no one will know who you’re talking about.”

I have to admit, I had little to no interest in checking out “MIB3“, but after learning who’s donning alien attire in the film, I have to check it out. Funny enough, when the three were revealed, I wasn’t surprised at all. Truth be told, they’re all a little whackadoo in their own right. Continue reading to find out.

Law & Order: SVU” returns this week, signaling a string of new episodes. Amen to that. Even after 13 seasons, this NBC crime drama is still one of my favorite shows on television. Along with their recognizable musical intro, SVU is known for their high-profile guest stars. In the coming weeks, there are a few noteworthy names dropping by the set including one of my favorite actresses, Chloe Sevigny. As much as I adore the fashionable Sevigny, it’s another special guest star I’m most looking forward to.

In the episode titled, “Learning Curve“, this culinary master is set to play a private school headmaster. The show airing April 25th revolves around a teacher who is fired from his job after being accused of inappropriate behavior with a student. Care to make any guesses on whom between Rachael Ray, Martha Stewart or Bethenny Frankel will moonlight as an actress? All three are proven ballbusters and would make a believable tough school headmaster. Continue reading to find out.

“Skyfall” Adds Third Bond Girl

In: Donovan, Movies

Skyfall” already has two gorgeous women as new Bond girls, but that isn’t stopping the producers from adding a third hot vixen to the mix. Filming for the 23rd installment of the James Bond series began filming several months ago with Berenice Marlohe (left) and Naomie Harris (right). MI6 broke the news that a Greek actress/model is joining the cast and being whisked to Istanbul to begin filming. This latest sequel is certainly a smörgåsbord of international hotties with a French, British and now Greek Bond Girl.

Word has it that this Greek actress initially auditioned for the main villainous role of Severine back in August 2011. That part eventually went to Marlohe. The producers were so smitten with her that they said they could find another role for her, so her agency resubmitted her this new part. Find out who the stunner is below.

“Twins” Sequel Coming Soon (No Joke)

In: Donovan, Movies

Let me preface this by saying that this isn’t an early April Fool’s Day joke. Unless it’s part of an elaborate “punk’d” by the movie studio. Typically, announcing a sequel is in production for a successful film isn’t at all surprising. In this day and age, sequels are in the planning stages the second opening box office receipts are being counted. In this case, it’s the complete opposite and been 24 years since the original hit theaters.

Twins” was released in 1988 and signaled Arnold Schwarzenegger’s first foray to comedy. His dynamic chemistry with Denny DeVito proved to be a winning combo. Directed by Ivan Reitman, the film starred the two as radically visually mismatched siblings born as a result of a genetics experiment. The twins were raised in completely different environments and as a result were complete polar opposites. Cue hilarious situation comedy.

I’m curious to know what initiated a sequel to the film. Why now? Were they simply waiting for Schwarzennegger to finish his term as California governor? Whatever the reason, I think it’s a horrible idea. It’s the sequel no one wants. That being said, the follow-up film has an interesting plot twist? Reports say that the story will revolve around a long-lost brother to Arnold and Danny’s characters. The film will aptly be titled, “Triplets“. If you thought Danny and Arnold were genetically different, wait til you see who’s playing their sibling below.
