Abigail Breslin Politely Endures Shameless Shmoozing Of Actors Twice Her Age
8:10AM Mark Graham | Unless you’re a fan of both mixed martial arts and directors who employ frenetic quick cuts as a means to hide razor-thin plots, you’ve probably never heard of Sean Faris, the 28-year-old star of this spring’s Never Back Down. Seems as if Sean is conscious of this fact and, like any other enterprising young actor trying to make a name in Hollywood, he’s actively taking steps to change that. You know, get out on the town, do a little presenter work at the Young Hollywood Awards, network a little. However, all of his good intentions went astray at the end of the evening when he made the all too common mistake on hitting on one of the other presenters. Usually, this would be a “no harm / no foul” kind of situation; however, in this instance, the presenter he was hitting on was 12-year-old Abigail Breslin and the incident was captured by the all-seeing, all-knowing eye of Harvey Levin.

Precocious Abigail Breslin Surprising Fan Of ‘Metal Machine Music’

We May Already Have Our Next Dakota
5:15AM Defamer Hollywood | It may already be too late to save Little Miss Sunshine’s Abigail Breslin from a regrettable Fanningisation by the Hollywood machine: “‘The greatest thing about Abigail is that she takes direction,’ the hunky actor [Aaron Eckhart], who plays a lovable chef, told us. ‘She’s so smart. She understands the whole script thematically. Most child actors can’t do that. They just recite lines their parents recite with them in the hotel room.’” [Rush & Molloy, 2nd item] More »
Hollywood Ready To Devour New Generation Of Wholesome Teen Actresses
11:45AM Defamer Hollywood | Positing that the public might be growing tired of the Lohan/Hilton/Spears class of troubled starlet and that the industry is ready to pump out a more wholesome, less frequently rehabbed product to capture the tween entertainment dollar, the LAT looks at the “new wave” of Hollywood good girls, including Nancy Drew’s Emma “Aunt Julia Would Produce My Movies Even If We Weren’t Related” Roberts, Nim’s Island’s Abigail Breslin, and the Charlize Theron-approved AnnaSophia Robb. The article’s true focus is the impeccably pedigreed, terrifyingly ambitious Roberts, who’s so precocious she’s already bored with the whole imminent movie stardom thing: “I want to do a fashion line too, but not an ‘Emma’ fashion line,” she said, clicking through her mental check list. “I want to do a real fashion line and sell it out of a boutique in Barneys or Neiman’s. Like Mary-Kate and Ashley’s line [the Row] but a really cool line of jeans or maybe dresses like [British pop singer] Lily Allen. [...] More »
