Let the Super Bowl commercials begin. We still have just under a week until the Giants will play the Patriots, but ads are already spilling onto the net. (SPOILER ALERT: It will ends like it did last time and Eli and the Giants will be skipping around the field singing ‘Brighter Than The Sun’ before Peyton Manning comes in and weave snatches his moment by retiring.)

Justin Bieber To Host Ashton Kutcher’s New Punk’D Show?

October 6, 2010 By Holly Stafford 3 Comments

Ashton Kutcher is planning to revive the hidden-camera reality show “Punk’d” for MTV, potentially with the Justin Bieber as the host behind the pranks. The show’s creators/ executive producers, original host Kutcher and Jason Goldberg, are back to executive produce the new installment through their company Katalyst. MTV and Kutcher’s production company declined to comment on the reports, so is the press being “Punk’d”? Well, probably not. “Punk’d” is the type of show that is best produced in secret – if it’s too well known, the celebrities who are the target of the tricks might be in on the jokes.

Per Rolling Stone:

Sources tell Vulture that MTV has long hoped to revive the program after Kutcher, who was executive producer as well as host, pulled the plug on the show in 2007. Bieber is said to be on the verge of a deal to host the reboot, and will likely take part in the first series of pranks.

Well, Bieber is no stranger to pranks. He had recently participated in a balloon throwing incident on state troopers which could have ended with Bieber in jail if his body guard had not intervened. That’s definitely Punk’D material.

For those Bieber fans who are too young to remember the beginning of the decade, Punk’d ran for 69 episodes over four years before it was taken off air in 2007. The show has played pranks on dozens of celebrities, including Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears, Katie Holmes and Matthew Perry. The premiere date for the new installment of Punk’d is yet to be set but the show has been quietly gearing up for production and will possibly be launched in 2011. We now have a whole new class of celebs who weren’t even on our radar when Punk’d exited three years ago. So get ready Bristol Palin, Snooki, and the entire cast of Glee: You’re probably about to get Bieber’ed!

‘Friends’ TV Hit Rumored To Become Movie

September 28, 2009 By Holly Stafford 2 Comments

A “Friends” spinoff movie appears to be closer than ever before after comments were made by James Michael-Tyler who played Gunther on the hit tv show, while in London for the launch of a Central Perk themed coffee shop in Soho this past weekend.

Per DailyMail.co.uk:

“‘Friends: The Movie’ is definitely on. I still keep in touch with a lot of the cast and they say that they are really keen. The one thing I can tell you is that I am definitely on board to do the film. I really loved my time on the show and I am looking forward to meeting up with the old gang again. I just hope we can do justice to the show in a film.”

As if you need any reminders, the hit NBC series, which ran for 10 seasons, included ‘friends’ Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry and David Schwimmer. Supposedly, it was the success of the “Sex and the City” movie has prompted Warner Brothers to produce a movie version of “Friends” and they “are prepared to pay a fortune to the stars.” Warner Brothers has also recruited the show’s creators, David Crane and Marta Kauffman, to write the script and produce the movie, with talk of a summer 2011 release.

So just what has our favorite ‘friends’ been up to since the series ended in 2004? Jennifer Aniston, who played spoiled rich girl Rachel Green, has had lead roles in films such as “Bruce Almighty“, “The Break-Up” and “Marley and Me.” She has her own production company with three films in post production and seven films in development. Courtney Cox, who played the neat freak Monica Gellar-Bing, has a new sitcom, “Cougar Town,” that premiered last week and is doing pretty well in the ratings. It is also being said that she will reprise her role as Gale Weathers in the 4th installment of the “Scream” movies. Lisa Kudrow, who played the weird but lovable Phoebe Buffay, played a mom in Summit Entertainment’s movie “Bandslam.” She is now an executive producer on the US version of “Who Do You Think You Are?” David Schwimmer, who played the 3 times divorced Ross Gellar, has done a bit of London theater after his small role in “Band of Brothers.” He also directed the 2007 British film “Run Fat Boy Run.” Matt LeBlanc, who played dumb ladies man Joey Tribbiani, had that flop of a TV comedy “Joey.” It was cancelled after just two seasons and he’s hardly been seen onscreen since. Matthew Perry, who played funnyman Chandler Bing, starred in “Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip,” but it was canceled after one season. Last time we saw him, he was really good as older Zac Efron in “17 Again.”

So just what would be the plot lines of this story? Would Monica and Chandler still be married? Will Joey and Phoebe eventually hook up? Will Ross and Rachel finally get over his cheating while on a break? Will Janice make a guest appearance? Only time will tell, I guess. But could we ‘be‘ anymore excited!?!
