Get Your Hands Off Stanley Kubrick’s Prosthesis, You Damned Dirty Ape
6:00AM Defamer Hollywood | A startling revelation from the ’60s emerged this week when Dan Richter, who played the contemplative ape in the prologue of 2001: A Space Odyssey, acknowledged a top-level, primate-swiping security breach on Stanley Kubrick’s set.

Rob Lowe And His Vicious Laundry List Of False Terribles
10:00AM Mark Graham | If you’re planning on going out and getting bombed tonight, it’s best to do so on a full stomach. Enter Dirt Sandwich, carefully crafted by Defamer’s Top Chef, Molly McAleer. Each week, she grazes through the rich pasture of tabloid television for the juiciest ingredients and then stacks them all together into an easily digestible sammy, one that’s guaranteed to soak up all the booze you’ll be pouring down your gullet this evening. This week’s Dirt Sandwich features Robin Williams’ appearance at Idol Gives Back (not showing any sign of his personal troubles!), the first interview Denise Richards has ever given in her bathroom (an E! News exclusive!), Jamie Lynn Spears’ romantic birthday dinner at a Louisiana Ruby Tuesdays (say what you will, but their Double Chocolate Cake is KILLER) and, of course, Rob Lowe’s allegations that his nanny was set to blackmail him with “a vicious laundry list of false terribles” (which, btw, became word of the week at Defamer HQ). Enjoy, kids … False Terribles! WATCH VIDEO More »
