Adding even more star power to the mix, Jada Pinkett Smith has signed on to star in the forthcoming ?Magic Mike XXL? flick.
The ?Gotham? gal chatted with Queen Latifah about the gig, which came about as one of the roles underwent a pretty major change.
Jada explained, "Yes, you know, Channing and Gregory and Warner Bros. really took a chance. There was a character written for a male that they wanted to turn into a female? Not one of those [characters]! I can't really reveal it yet, but I'm excited about it."
Ms. Pinkett Smith?s addition to the cast comes just after it was confirmed that Matthew McConaughey would not be returning for round two. ?Magic Mike XXL is slated to grind its way into theaters on July 1, 2015.

As my regular readers know, I’ve really come around on Taylor Swift. Who cares if her music is garbage and she still acts like she’s a teenage girl even though she’s 24? Because then she shows up places looking like this, reminding me what’s really important when it comes to ranking pop stars: how much […]

| | Emma Watson Launches HeForShe Campaign at United Nations | | Added 10 years ago | Source: Celebrity Gossip |

Though she?s best known as a wizarding woman, Emma Watson is making quite a name for herself with her humanitarian efforts.
The ?Harry Potter? actress, who became a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador this year, showed up at the UN to kick off her new HeForShe campaign.
Emma declared, "My recent research has shown me that 'feminism' has become an unpopular word. Women are choosing not to identify as feminists ... Why has the word become such an unpopular one?"
"I think it is right I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is right that I should make decisions about my own body. I think it is right that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and decisions that affect my life. I think it is right that socially, I am afforded the same respect as men."
Watson also shared, "Men, I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal invitation. Gender equality is your issue, too. I've seen young men suffering from illness, unable to ask for help for fear it will make them less of a man ... I've seen men fragile and insecure by a distorted sense of what constitutes male success. Men don't have the benefits of equality, either. We don't often talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes but I can see that they are."
As she concluded, Emma noted, "In my nervousness for this speech and my moment of doubt, I told myself firmly: If not me, who? If not now, when? ... I invite you to step forward, to be seen and ask yourself: If not me, who? If not now, when?"

Here are some photos of Emma Watson at the United Nations in NYC on Saturday night. Emma was recently appointed as a Goodwill Ambassador of UN Women, formerly UNIFEM. Emma just took her first trip on behalf of UN Women ? she went to Uruguay to highlight women?s participation in political processes, from voter turnout to actually electing women to public office. In NYC, she helped launch a new UN initiative called HeForShe, a program aiming to include more men as ?allies? in gender equality. You can read her full speech here, and here are some highlights from the speech:
Today we are launching a campaign HeForShe. I am reaching out to you because we need your help. We must try to mobilize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change. We don?t just want to talk about it. We want to try and make sure it?s tangible. I was appointed as Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women 6 months ago.
The more I spoke about feminism, the more I realized that fighting for women?s rights has too often become synonymous with man-hating. If there is one thing I know for certain is that this has to stop. For the record, feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. It is the theory of political, economic and social equality of the sexes.
When I was 8, I was called bossy because I wanted to direct a play for our parents. At 15, my girlfriends didn?t want to join sports teams because they didn?t want to appear masculine. At 18, my male friends were unable to express their feelings. I decided that I was a feminist. This seemed uncomplicated to me. But my recent research has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word. Women are choosing not to identify as feminists. Apparently, [women?s expression is] seen as too strong, too aggressive, anti-men, unattractive.
Why has the word become such an unpopular one? I think it is right I am paid the same as my male counterparts. I think it is right that I should make decisions about my own body. I think it is right that women be involved on my behalf in the policies and decisions that affect my life. I think it is right that socially, I am afforded the same respect as men. But sadly, I can say that there is no one country in the world where all women can expect to see these rights. No country in the world can yet say that they achieved gender equality. These rights are considered to be human rights but I am one of the lucky ones.
How can we effect change in the world when only half of it is invited to participate in the conversation? Men, I would like to give this opportunity to extend your formal invitation. Gender equality is your issue, too. To date, I?ve seen my father?s role as a parent being valued less by society. I?ve seen young men suffering from illness, unable to ask for help for fear it will make them less of a man. I?ve seen men fragile and insecure by what constitutes male success. Men don?t have the benefits of equality, either.
[From Buzzfeed]
Emma goes on to say that the conversation about feminism and equality should not simply be a female-driven, female-only conversation and that men need to be invited to participate as well. It?s a very well-written speech and it does a good a job of being mature and serious, but also accessible to the younger girls who are already Emma?s fans. I?m very happy that Emma has taken this goodwill ambassador position and this new initiative sounds great. Good for Emma!
PS… Her coat-dress is Dior. This is the best look I’ve seen from Dior in YEARS.

| | Sharon Stone is an absurdly narcissistic diva, claims Italian producer | | Added 10 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Confession: I?ve never thought Sharon Stone was a good actress. Yes, she?s beautiful and she?s got a brilliant plastic surgeon, but throughout her career, whenever I watch one of her performances, I?m always like ?Ugh, they should have recast this.? She got an Oscar nomination for her work in Casino, but riddle me this: wouldn?t ANY actress get an Oscar nom for that role? It was a well-written, meaty part and there were a dozen better actresses who could have nailed it. Anyway, I was thinking about my low opinion of Sharon?s acting skills when I read this story. Apparently, Sharon was hired for a low-budget film in Italy and now the Italian producers and publicly bashing her for diva behavior.
Sharon Stone?s Italian cinema debut hit theaters on Thursday ? and the brothers behind the film are painting the American actress as a diva who was difficult to work with. The film, Golden Boy, comes from celebrated director Pupi Avati and his producer-brother Antonio Avati. Casting Stone for the low-budget film was a big win for the duo.
In Golden Boy, Riccardo Scamarcio plays Davide, a copywriter whose father Ettore was a B-movie screenwriter. After his father dies in a car accident, Davide leaves his job, city and girlfriend Silvia, played by Cristiana Capotondi. He moves to Rome and meets Ludovica (Stone), a sexy actress-turned-publisher who wanted to release his father?s autobiography. Davide decides to write the book himself, in an effort to get to know his father, and Ludovica, better. Stone?s character is dubbed in the domestic version of the film, which is the norm for Italian releases. Avati wrote the script with Stone in mind.
?The idea of having her in the role of an actress from the 90s who becomes a book editor was mine,? said the director at a press conference in Rome for the film. ?I knew there are American actresses more capable then her, but I wanted a film icon. Everyday on the set I was telling her: ?But do you realize that you are Sharon Stone because of that day when you crossed your legs???
Getting her to sign up for the film was another story.
?My brother asked me if I was crazy,? said the director. ?Rai [Cinema] told me you will never ever get her. Then a correspondence started, enough to write a book, between her agents and our lawyers. It was a negotiation that bordered on ridiculousness, concerning embarrassing details, as if Italy was a third world country. By the way, we do have electricity in Italy,? he joked. ?Then she arrived in Italy. And we went to pick her up in Florence with a train from Italo that we rented just for her,? he said referring to Italy?s luxury train line. ?She was there to visit [Andrea] Bocelli. We had our first meeting with her: she was on the wrong railway track, sitting on her luggage and no one around recognized her.?
The producer claimed that as soon as she was spotted she transformed. ?Then, step-by-step, she started to feel more and more like Sharon Stone,? he said. ?On this rented train, everybody asked to take a picture with her. And when we arrived at the Tiburtina train station [in Rome] there were already about 30 photographers. We brought her to the most luxurious suite of the Hassler Hotel. The next day on set there were more than 200 paparazzi. There her ego definitively inflated. It is the classic pattern with these American actresses who are slightly declining.”
But it was the final scene that Pupi Avati says revealed the actress? most diva-like behavior. ?It was the last scene in the day and we had to do the last shot where Sharon kisses Scamarcio,? he said. ?Suddenly, she realized that together with all the photographers there was also a TV cameraman who was filming. She immediately disappeared. We looked for her everywhere, but nothing! Then my brother received a phone call from Los Angeles from her manager: she wouldn?t come back on the set until the photographers and especially that damned TV cameramen had gone away. Obviously we did so and she, like nothing happened, shot the scene. The thing that I found most absurd is that she had to call to the States and to close herself in a car, instead of coming to ask us directly.?
But despite the alleged difficulties, the director says he would not necessarily turn down another opportunity to collaborate with the actress. ?By the way,? he said, ?it is not absolutely true that I would never work with her again.?
Actress Cristiana Capotondi also commented on Stone?s behavior at the conference: ?To witness the Hollywood diva-ism clashing up against the craftsmanship of the Avati brothers was an unforgettable experience,? she said. ?The funniest thing was when she was going shopping for her character with the production?s credit card. She had a production runner following her, at a distance, to tell Antonio which shops she was going into. When the runner called to say that she was going into Bulgari, Antonio almost fainted.?
When reached for comment, Stone?s rep Cindi Berger told The Hollywood Reporter, ?None of this is true. Ms. Stone is the consummate professional.?
[From THR]
Whoa. I mean, is this surprising? Not at all. Remember what her kids? former nanny had to say about her? Remember how Sharon?s ex-husband couldn?t get away from her fast enough? That being said, I guess I?m surprised by the strident bitchiness of these producers. Maybe they?re trying to drum up publicity for their movie, which I had never heard of before today. But really ? I tend to think most actresses are like this. Especially ?American actresses who are slightly declining.? But seriously, why does anyone care about Sharon as an actress? She sucks.

Kate Hudson is promoting Wish I Was Here (Zach Braff’s Kickstarter movie) in England. The movie is about how Braff’s character (a struggling actor trying to find his own identity) decides to homeschool his two children. Chaos ensues. I haven’t seen the movie, but it sounds like Kate plays the “thankless wife” role. I guess that’s better than her endless stream of romcoms?
Kate visited Alan Carr: Chatty Man. She decided, for whatever reason, to discuss her encounters with the supernatural. Kate says she and her mom, Goldie Hawn, possess the ability to see ghosts. They both see them all the time. Maybe Kate and Goldie found some good stuff to smoke? I don’t know. Kate says she’s witnessed “a ghost of a woman with no face” which was “very creepy.” The clips of this discussion have been yanked from YouTube, but here are some quotes:
“Me and my mom Goldie can see dead people. It is not really seeing, it is feeling a spirit; a fifth energy. I believe in energy. I believe our brains can manifest into visual things. When you see something, you are supposed to tell the energy what year it is and that they don’t belong there. When your brain is freaking out on you, you may have to remind it. Why is being dead funny?”
[From Alan Carr - Chatty Man]
“Why is being dead funny?” must come with a context. I’ve never seen a ghost before, but I doubt telling them the year would help. Is that supposed to make the ghost behave rationally and go away? Now, I’ve heard some weird stuff. When my dog died last year, I heard strange “doggie” footsteps that didn’t belong to my other dog. It was probably a case of overactive imagination. Everyone thought I was nuts. At least I didn’t tell the footsteps that it’s 2014. When I got a new dog, the strange noises stopped. Crazy, right?
Here’s Kate at the premiere of Wish I Was Here in London. She’s wearing an Emanuel Ungaro sheer tank with ginormous Ungaro trousers. Her shoes are Saint Laurent although they don’t matter. Those pants swallow everything. Ghost pants.

| | Juliette Lewis: The media hates CO$ because of pharmaceutical money | | Added 10 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Juliette Lewis has a new interview with the Daily Beast to promote a number of projects. She’s promoting a 2015 tv show, Secrets & Lies, which sounds like a True Detective knockoff. Juliette will play a lead detective alongside Ryan Phillipe. In a movie called Kelly & Cal, she’ll play a washed-up punk singer who goes though an “existential crisis” after the birth of her first child. The “punk” label isn’t too far off base for anyone who’s listened to Juliette’s music.
Most of the time when I cover Juliette, I try and forget that she’s a Scientologist. She’s making it difficult this time because she discusses the CO$ in this interview. There are other topics too, but Juliette is so brainwashed by this cult. This discussion makes me forget that she’s a talented character actress who has held her own onscreen against a number of A-list men:
On life after 40: “I think the big thing, for me, is facing my parents? mortality. That is horrifying, and I?m still dealing with it. There?s just so much wrapped up in it. My Dad is older and has Alzheimer?s and Parkinson?s, and it?s taken me seven years to accept it–and I still haven?t accepted it. I was going through that, and with my band, I?d been playing music for six years, but I realized that I still loved acting, storytelling, and characters, so that was doing my head in because I didn?t know how to balance both. I was struggling to strike a balance.”
Ageism in Hollywood: “With age, there?s definitely that stuff. But I don?t think so, because I?ve tried to stay pretty disengaged from the politics of Hollywoodism. I?ve always been an outsider. I?ve always been attracted to roles that would challenge me, and that wouldn?t come around very often. I sort of got lucky in that I was able to carve a niche for myself. I haven?t made a career off my looks, thank God, but hopefully how I?ve moved people emotionally, the directors I?ve been able to work with, and the stories I?ve been a part of.”
She was a movie “Cassandra” with A-listers: “Yeah, this is now part of my history that I can say we all came up together–Brad, Leo, Johnny Depp, George Clooney. It?s so funny. I try not to be cynical about Hollywood, but I remember that George?s first lead was From Dusk Till Dawn and, since he was coming from television, the studio was questioning, ‘Well, can he be the lead in a movie?’ And you?re thinking, ‘Dude! Are you kidding? Have an imagination!’ It?s amazing to think that it was even a question.”
Misconceptions against Scientology: “I’ll get all conspiratorial on you, and I?m just going to throw this out: The mainstream media is funded by pharmaceutical companies, so when you have the biggest movie star in the world at the time–Tom Cruise–coming out against anti-depressants and Ritalin and just saying, ‘Hey, why don?t you put a warning label on there?’ The thing about Scientology is it is anti-drug in that you?re seeking relationship or communication tools–simple basics on how to live better. So, when Tom came out about that, I?ve never seen someone get torn down so hard, and they still brutalize him with Scientology pieces to this day. It?s a religious philosophy and self-help movement. And you?ll never see a truthful word written about it in mainstream media.”
Getting recognized by fans: “It trips me out when 20-year-olds come up to me on the street and are like, ‘I loved Natural Born Killers!’ But then, I remember that when I was younger I was listening to music from the ?60s. And in the ?90s, with the exception of The Pixies, I was listening to trippy music from two decades prior.”
[From Daily Beast]
Bless her heart. Juliette doesn’t even realize that Tom Cruise was torn down for reasons other than holding an opinion against psychiatry. It would be fine if he simply didn’t believe in taking Prozac for himself. It would have been okay if Tom had simply suggested a warning label on meds. The problem was the way Tom said this stuff. Tom was an unhinged mess full of pointed fingers, angry postures, and name-calling. It was Tom’s way or no way at all. Glib!
One positive thing about this interview: At least the journo didn’t ask her any questions about her romance with Brad Pitt. Juliette has to field that stuff every time she promotes a project. Maybe that topic would have been preferable to Juliette throwing out a conspiracy theory on the media and CO$. She tried to sound rational by using the word “conspiratorial,” but that doesn’t make L. Ron Hubbard’s scripture any less loony.

| | Colin Farrell confirms his casting as a lead on 'True Detective' Season 2 | | Added 10 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Well, at least some of the casting rumors for True Detective Season 2 were true. We heard, months ago, that Colin Farrell and Taylor Kitsch were maybe/probably going to be playing two of the male leads. And now Colin has confirmed the news to an Irish newspaper. He said, in part:
“I?m doing the second series. I?m so excited. I know it will be eight episodes and take around four or five months to shoot. I know very little about it, but we’re shooting in the environs of Los Angeles which is great. It means I get to stay at home and see the kids.”
[From Uproxx]
This news doesn?t piss me off, but I?m not jumping for joy either. Colin has always been a better actor than people believe, so I think he?ll probably do well in this role, whatever it is. But it?s also sort of? anti-climactic, you know?
So far, there?s been no hard confirmation about Taylor Kitsch. The rumor was that Kitsch was really pursuing the role, to the point where they stopped auditioning Garrett Hedlund for the same part. Which, I don?t know, I think is sort of a mistake? If Hedlund was showing interest in a role, why would you toss him aside for Taylor Kitsch? Hedlund is extremely talented, I?m just saying.
There were other rumors about Vince Vaughn and? Elisabeth Moss. I was really, really excited about the Moss rumors, but there hasn?t been anything new about her specifically in a while. Then last week, The Wrap said that producers are actually looking at SEVEN actresses for the female lead and the list is: Rosario Dawson, Jessica Biel, Malin Akerman, Jaimie Alexander, Brit Marling, Oona Chaplin, and Kelly Reilly. BIEL? Jaimie Alexander? Kelly Reilly? I mean, the list is okay, but sort of blandy bland bland. I wonder why Moss?s name isn?t being mentioned anymore? And if Colin Farrell is for-sure, doesn?t that mean that Biel is out? They starred together in the Total Recall remake and no one wants to be reminded of that.
