MarchJennifer Aniston pulled herself together for the UK premiere of The Bounty Hunter today, and it seems she brought a friend along. Say hi!
What’s your name, little guy? You look just like your mommy!
(Pssst… let’s all just humor her until this passes. Thanks.)

Sometimes people spend their whole life looking for that special someone only to find they’ve been sleeping with it every night. And it’s a pillow. According to the UK Metro, a Korean man named Lee Jin-gyu experienced just that. It’s age-old story of boy meets pillow, boy falls in love with pillow, boy enters an eternal union in the eyes of his creator with pillow, and then boy becomes laughing stock of planet.
Before you do start laughing at him though, tell me if this relationship sounds any less functional than yours:
‘He is completely obsessed with this pillow and takes it everywhere,’ said one friend.
‘They go out to the park or the funfair where it will go on all the rides with him. Then when he goes out to eat he takes it with him and it gets its own seat and its own meal,’ they added.
Yea, didn’t think so. Watch the happy couple in action here:

March“We know the show was supposed to run through the end of May, but it is pretty obvious to everyone here at American Idol that Mike Lynche just won Season 9. We’d like to thank the other contestants for coming out this year. You were all very good, but it is just clear now that we already have a winner and there’s really no point in dragging this out.
For the rest of the spring, the time slot usually held by American Idol will be used to air Bones repeats. It’s just in the best interest for America.
Congratulations to our winner Big Mike, and hopefully the rest of you can score tickets for Conan O’Brien’s live tour or something. Good night and drive safe.”
That’s probably what Simon Cowell should have said last night.

When you hear the name Adam Lambert, plenty of words come to mind. Glamorous. Larger than life. Talent explosion. Cod piece. But perhaps one word that has never been previously associated with Lambert is “Unplugged.” In fact, if there’s one thing the guy is, it’s “Plugged.”
So when our boss broke the news that Adam would be the first of many musicians to headline the resurrection of VH1’s Unplugged series, mere days before the actual taping, and that I would be the only member of the press allowed past the rhinestoned curtain, well… looks like someone unplugged my enthusiasm for life and living and simply being.
The taping was on a Saturday afternoon, which means (for those historians of you out there) that it directly followed what experts refer to as “Fun Drinky Drunk Times on a Friday Night.” And not just for me, it seems, but for Lambert as well, who joined up with former Idol allies Kris Allen and Allison Iraheta for a very special Rock This Town concert mere hours before his Unplugged taping. It seems the only people not out the night before getting trashed in the privacy of someone else’s bar were the 40 or so fresh faces waiting in line outside of the studio, whose faces beamed like little glow worms waiting to meet their glowy lord and savior.
Slowly but surely, these super fans were filed into the studio, filling up the 3 exclusive rows of seats roughly 4 inches away from the microphone that would soon be on the receiving end of a vocal ecstasy tablet. And, much to my surprise, the production assistant who was seating people grabbed me and placed me right smack dab in the second row, aisle seat. “Well,” I thought, “this should be interesting.”
Check out Lambert’s “Unplugged” performance and an exclusive BWE.tv interview with the man, the legend… ahead!
MarchNickelodeon held its upfront presentation today, and all the big tween stars were out, like Miranda Cosgrove and Justin Bieber. However the one star all the kids were REALLY excited to see was THIS guy:

MarchDakota Fanning, it’s safe to say, is a pretty great actress. She’s been acting since back in the day when her name was “Anonymous Zygot.” She’s worked with some of the best directors in cinematic history. She’s grown into a very pretty young woman.
Dakota’s such a powerful actress, she was cast as Cherie Currie, the 16-year-old lead singer of 70s “jailbait rock” band The Runaways, alongside Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett. Today we get our first music video from the film, Dakota’s cover of “Cherry Bomb.” And even though movies like Avatar and Alice in Wonderland are now possible thanks to the wonders of technology, this clip will very clearly prove that no director on Earth could CGI being a huge teenage whore. It’s all just so innocent seeming. Where’s Taylor Momsen when you need her?
MarchThe other day on Twitter, Mystery Team director Dan Eckman pointed out that we’ve actually known who Jacob on Lost is all along: He is the guy who dunks The Dude’s head in toilet at the beginning of The Big Lebowski (well, the actor Mark Pellegrino who plays Jacob… but I am under the assumption that all TV shows and movies are real life).
This may not be new information to some, but with recent events unfolding on Lost, it explains why Jacob may actually, in fact, just be a huge a-hole.
MarchBill Gates and Bill Clinton testified before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee about the United State’s role in improving global health. From these photos, though, it looked like Bill Gates was just happy to be hanging out with coolest MF’er in the world:

If you’ve never seen the documentary The King of Kong, you’re missing the greatest sports movie ever in all of history. Go rent it. Otherwise this means nothing to you and you’ll never realize how empty your life was before this movie came along. I WEEP for you, sir or madam. I weep.
If you have seen it, hold on to your butts. This story is today’s NY Daily News:
A Queens plastic surgeon has been crowned the king of Donkey Kong.
Dr. Hank Chien, 35, racked up a score of 1,061,700 on the classic arcade video game, smashing the old record by 10,000 points. Chien’s dazzling feat was confirmed by Twin Galaxies, the official score keeper of electronic games.
While it’s sad that hero teacher Steve Wiebe did not take down Billy goddam Mitchell again, it’s nice to have a new expansion team in this fight for the very soul of mankind. Because truthfully, we all know judgement day will come down to a single game of Donkey Kong between good and evil, and Billy Mitchell plays for Team Evil.
My hat is off to you, Dr. Hank Chien. Now go get laid, sir (but maybe don’t bring up the Donkey Kong thing beforehand).
