Scarlett Johansson and Sean Penn Go Public with Relationship

Reese Witherspoon may have tied the knot over the weekend, but it wasn’t her “I dos” or her wedding gown that stole the spotlight. Scarlett Johansson is making news of her own by attending Witherspoon’s nuptials to Hollywood agent Jim Toth with Sean Penn as her plus one. The couple was rumored to have gone on a romantic getaway a few weeks back to Mexico but now it seems things have gotten a little more serious with them. Actually, when ScarJo was photographed with her foot in Penn’s lap, things became a little more clear, but that’s neither here nor there.

Scarlett and Sean had been rumored to be dating for awhile now, but going to the wedding on Saturday together the two made it official. According to Hollywood etiquette showing up together at an A-list wedding together is a huge step. Scarlett – who announced her separation from husband Ryan Reynolds last year after two years of marriage – is allegedly completely smitten with Sean and wants everyone to know they are dating.

Per PopEater:

“Scarlett is Jim’s client, but no one, including the bride, knew she would have turned up with Sean Penn,” a friend of Scarlett’s tells me. “Turning up at a wedding with your boyfriend is definitely a huge statement, especially that wedding. What it’s doing is announcing to the whole of Hollywood that they are serious.”

Their reps are keeping remarkably quiet about the alleged lovers relationship but rumors say they’re due to visit Haiti together sometime in the spring where Sean has been actively involved in relief assistance following the earthquake in 2010. Sean is super talented, but I wouldn’t call him sexy. He’s decent looking, but I think I just can’t seem to get the image of him playing Spicoli in ‘Fast Times at Ridgemont High‘ out of my head. Clearly the 24-year age difference doesn’t faze them and they appear to be genuinely happy together, but how do you go from Ryan Reynolds to Sean Penn?!

Oprah Sets Date for Final Show

We knew the end was coming and now we have a definite date of Oprah’s last show on network TV. Her show has been on TV for 25 years, but despite the show’s continued success, Oprah decided to launch her own network (OWN) and leave network TV. Currently her show is in re-runs, but she promises us BIG things for the final six weeks. Oprah and Harpo Productions confirmed Friday that the final episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show will air on May 25th. It’s hard to believe her show will be no more in less than two months…

Per Us:

“You have all invited me into your lives,” an emotional Winfrey told her studio audience in November 2009, when announcing that her 25th season would be her last. “We’ve grown together. I want you all to know that my relationship with you is one that I hold very dear. Your trust in me, your sharing your precious time with me…has brought me the greatest joy that I have ever known.”

Ratings for her new network, OWN, haven’t been great. They are decent, but not the huge numbers she was pulling on network TV. What will happen once she’s only available on cable TV? I don’t think the ratings will be anywhere near what they were. While on network TV Oprah’s show was free for those who didn’t have cable. Now that she’s established her OWN network people will have to pay a premium if they want to watch Oprah. Her network is available only on cable and not just basic cable, but premium cable. Which means more money out of her viewer’s pockets.

Although Oprah seems to be a very smart business woman I don’t think launching a network only available through a premium cable subscription was the smartest thing to do. People are struggling with money these days and many people have had to cut out the extras like premium cable.

Bret Michaels is Suing the Tony Awards and CBS

Bret Michaels is suing the Tony Awards and CBS for the incident that happened during the 2009 ceremony, when he was hit in the head by a set piece that was being lowered from the ceiling. Bret was hospitalized for a broken nose and a cut lip, but that’s not why he’s suing. In the lawsuit, Bret alleges that the accident played a significant role in the near-fatal brain hemorrhage he suffered last year, 10 months after the Tonys.

Per People:

Michaels’s attorney, Alex Weingarten, issued the following press statement, reports EW.com: “The Tony Awards dropped a piece of the stage on Bret’s head, and then instead of doing the right thing, joked about it and played it off for ratings … Bret never wanted to file a lawsuit, but the Tony Awards have left us with no choice. They must be held accountable for almost killing Bret, and that is what we are going to do.”

The suit alleges that one of the most common causes of this type of hemorrhage is head trauma, “exactly like the one Bret suffered at the hands of the Tony Awards.” For his part, Bret says he was not instructed on how to safely leave the stage, and wasn’t even aware that anything would be coming down from the ceiling. The producers have said Bret, quote, “missed his mark.”

He’s suing for negligence, civil battery, negligent misrepresentation and negligent interference with prospective economic advantage. There’s no word how much he’s asking for. No one from the Tonys or CBS has commented yet. I gotta admit, I feel bad that he was injured, but why’d he wait so long to take action?

Charlie Sheen Let Dog Die of Malnutrition

Good morning. Here is some WTF?! to put in your coffee…

Charlie Sheen continues his tour of nuttery he can add animal abuser to his self given titles of warlock of cokery or whatever the devil he is going by now. According to TMZ, when Charlie and Denise Richards split, he got custody of their two pugs. After Charlie beat up that chandelier and locked a hooker/porn star in the closet at the Plaza Hotel, the crazy gene started mating with his ego to create the epic gnarly beast we have now. Since then, Denise was getting phone calls that the dogs were being neglected and often not fed. As a result one of the dogs suffered a slow death.

“Things became so alarming, we’re told Denise went to Charlie’s and he gave her the dogs. Sadly, one of them died of malnutrition, but the other is ok. Now Charlie wants the dog back, and sources say he just wants the pooch as a mascot on his tour bus.”

Sheen followed this news with a Tweet from his Crazed Temple of Poon…

“We must bombard with Warlock Napalm, that traitor and loser whore #DUH -neese POOR-ARD. A VILE KIDNAPPER AND NOW DOG THIEF. HATE.”

Seriously. Someone needs to get a net and go warlock hunting. It has moved past village idiot-amusing and into just plain sad. At least Denise standing her ground and refusing to give the remain pug back due to the fact that he can’t even take care of himself.

Sarah Lane and Natalie Portman ‘Black Swan’ Feud

Just in time for the DVD release of ‘Black Swan’ comes a celebrity feud. Incredibly convenient no?

Sarah Lane was Natalie Portman’s body double in the ballet thriller (there’s two words I never thought would be used in conjunction), ‘Black Swan,’ is crying IMMA VICTIM! Lane is a soloist from the American Ballet Theatre who claims she did 95% of the dancing seen on the film. Natalie has been given the credit for the work and Sarah is throwing a big NOPE at the producer’s and the film’s choreographer/Natalie’s fiancé/baby daddy, Benjamin Millepied.

Via EW:

“Of the full body shots, I would say 5 percent are Natalie. All the other shots are me. The shots that are just her face with arms, those shots are definitely Natalie. But that doesn’t show the actual dancing. They wanted to create this idea in people’s minds that Natalie was some kind of prodigy or so gifted in dance and really worked so hard to make herself a ballerina in a year and a half for the movie, basically because of the Oscar,” says Lane. “It is demeaning to the profession and not just to me. I’ve been doing this for 22 years…. Can you become a concert pianist in a year and a half, even if you’re a movie star? I mean, from a professional dancer’s standpoint, she doesn’t look like a professional ballet dancer at all and she can’t dance in pointe shoes. And she can’t move her body; she’s very stiff,” says Lane. “I do give her a lot of credit because in a year and a half she lost a lot of weight and she really tried to go method and get into a dancers head and really feel like a ballet dancer.”

The future Mr. Portman disagrees and threw some shade while trying to convince everyone it was Natalie.

“There are articles now talking about her dance double [American Ballet Theatre dancer Sarah Lane] that are making it sound like [Lane] did a lot of the work, but really, she just did the footwork, and the fouettés, and one diagonal [phrase] in the studio,” he said. “Honestly, 85 percent of that movie is Natalie.”

Since then, the filmmakers have also added their claims that Natalie did most of the work and Sarah is a liar, liar tutu on fire.

“We were fortunate to have Sarah there to cover the more complicated dance sequences and we have nothing but praise for the hard work she did. However, Natalie herself did most of the dancing featured in the final film.”

I am sure Natalie shrugged and said, “Whateves, I’m gonna go polish my Oscar.”

Amy Adams Scores Lois Lane Role

The adorable Amy Adams has been cast as Lois Lane in the ‘Superman’ reboot. The 36 year red head was given the role after a slew of auditions from formidable fellow actresses. Rumors even saw Twilight saga’s starlet, Kristen Stewart, as the front-runner for the role. (Sorry, Twihards. I am breathing a sigh of relief that she won’t be Lois. I get enough one dimensional angst filled lip biting in the Twilight movies.)

The casting has been a long process that has been taken in cautious steps. The failure of the last Man of Steel film, ‘Superman Returns,’ took a $70 million loss and has fans wary of yet another remake. Kate Bosworth was the last to play Lois Lane as Brandon Routh donned the tights and cape.

Amy has been dubbed “perfect” for filling the shoes of Lois. Henry Cavill was announced as the new Superman a few Zack Snyder, the director of the revamp, broke the news to Amy while he was in Paris promoting his latest film, “Sucker Punch.”

Per Hero Complex:

“There was a big, giant search for Lois,” Snyder said. “For us it was a big thing and obviously a really important role. We did a lot of auditioning but we had this meeting with Amy Adams and after that I just felt she was perfect for it.”

No plot details have been ironed out, but the director did share some of the details of his vision…

“It goes back to what I’ve said about Superman and making him really understandable for today. What’s important to us is making him relevant and real and making him empathetic to today’s audience so that we understand the decisions he makes. That applies to Lois as well. She has to be in the same universe as him [in tone and substance].”

Robert Pattinson Wiped His Runny Nose on Reese Witherspoon’s Wig

Robert Pattinson talked with MTV about his less than sensual sex scene with Reese Witherspoon in ‘Water for Elephants.’ The ‘Twilight’ star, he will always be Sparklepants to me, revealed that he had a nasty cold while filming the drama.

Per MTV Via Deadbolt:

“I’m not generally that awkward doing stuff apart from when I’ve got my belly coming out, but my nose [was] running all over the place! Reese had this wig on and I was literally wiping my nose on her wig. We’d be doing this really passionate love scene and I had to be [wiping my nose]. It was so stupid!”

If Reese were smart she would have bottled that snot and made a fortune on eBay from some Twihard wanting his DNA.

FYI – Reese married Jim Toth yesterday! Click HERE for the ceremony details including who got snubbed from the invites list…

Reese Witherspoon Weds Jim Toth

Reese Witherspoon married her agent, Jim Toth, on Saturday. The two wed at Reese’s ranch estate in Ojai, California. A rep for Witherspoon confirmed to People the happy news.

The “Legally Blonde” starlet walked down the aisle to the traditional tune of “Here Comes the Bride” as the witnesses included Renee Zellweger, Sean Penn who escorted Scarlett Johansson, Tobey Maguire, Robert Downey Jr., Alyssa Milano and her ex-husband, Ryan Phillippe. Her two children with Phillippe also took part in the nuptials.

Witherspoon wore a pale pink Monique Lhuillier gown. The ceremony lasted around 20 minutes and ended with an exchange of wedding bands designed by William Goldberg. The band will sit with her 4 carat Ashocka cut engagement ring also crafted by Goldberg.

Some are curious as to what her most recent ex was up to. Jake Gyllenhaal spent the evening bowling while Reese married Jim. He didn’t seem to be thinking too much about her as he and his friends, which included Maroon 5’s Adam Levine, drank Red Stripe beer and even did a celebratory dance after hitting a spare. He even spent some time making friends with a brunette in the next lane before being joined by Swedish model, Mini Anden. She joined the group at around 1 A.M. Jake coaxed her into bowling a few frames and even gave her a few lessons.

Britney Spears’ Las Vegas Show – VIDEO, PHOTOS

Britney Spears slipped into some latex and ankle boots to light up the stage at Rain nightclub at Palms Casino on Friday night. The Vegas crowd was treated to three of Britney’s new songs from her upcoming album, “Femme Fatale.”

While her backup dancers popped every move dressed in their Swedish leather bar finest, she hit the stage in sequined bodysuit for ‘Hold It Against Me.’

For her second song of the night, Spears mouthed the will.i.am produced song, ‘Big Fat Bass.’ For that she wore a black latex bodysuit complete with a driver hat as her back up dancers wore baggy garb that was hobo Rainbow Brite Sprite chic. The wind machine was working overtime while some German plane mechanics on their way to an S&M club flanked her while she busted out her final tune of the night, ‘Till the World Ends,’ in a black leather bodysuit that was adorned with red lights.

Everyone was screaming and hollerin’ like Oprah just promised them a gift bag filled with locks of Justin Beiber’s hair and $100 bills kissed by Robert Pattinson.
