Zac Efron Will Continue To Grope America
1:46AM Richard | Zac Efron continues his reign of mild terror, Freida Pinto is cool beans, George Lopez gets a talk show (shudder), and two fine actors will play two fine politicians in a flick about the Clintons. More »Moviefone Poll Suggests Voters Want Nation Run By Fictional Idiot Presidents
10:40AM Kyle Buchanan | Hollywood has done its fair share of preaching to the political electorate this season, so Moviefone polled 1.1 million of its users to return the favour by electing their favourite screen presidents. They rose to the occasion by selecting Harrison Ford, Morgan Freeman, and several tremendous idiots. The list, after the jump: More »Drunken Dialects of the South, With Your Guide Dennis Quaid
6:40AM STV | Dennis Quaid completed publicity rounds for The Express last night with a visit to Conan O’Brien, who veered a ways off the script with a shout-out to Quaid’s sultry 1987 potboiler The Big Easy. We had forgotten until that moment how mesmerizingly awkward his New Orleans detective’s bastardized Cajun accent was, but with the aid of his unfailing actor’s recall and an apparent nip or eight of green-room white lightning, the one-time King of Mardi Gras stunned the audience silent with a garbled scat that makes his Express turn look cardboard in comparison. “That was kind of schizophrenic,” concluded the rattled O’Brien. Sure — that’s one word for it. [Late Night with Conan O'Brien] More »Dennis Quaid Thinks Meg Ryan Has Got Some Mouth On Her
7:40AM Kyle Buchanan | After Meg Ryan spiced up her press tour for The Women by dropping infidelity bombs about ex-husband Dennis Quaid, the only question was whether the actor would decline a rebuttal, instead letting his patented “constipation face” speak volumes. Instead, Quaid spoke out to the NY Daily News, and though he didn’t deny the allegations, he did attack Ryan for dredging up the past: More »Meg Ryan Gives Dennis Quaid Lip: ‘Not Faithful to Me for a Very Long Time’
4:00AM Kyle Buchanan | Since her new, critically reviled remake of The Women pivots on the plot device of an unfaithful husband, Meg Ryan has decided to mouth off on similar rumours that plagued the dissolution of her marriage to actor Dennis Quaid. Ryan’s affair with Proof of Life costar Russell Crowe had been blamed for the divorce — an allegation the actress once took right on the kisser. Now, speaking to InStyle, Ryan points the finger at Quaid’s infidelity, an accusation that will surely plump the issue up to new levels: More »
6:41AM Seth | Harrison Ford better keep one eye over his shoulder if he doesn’t want to see his title of Hollywood’s Most Constipated-Looking Leading Man slip through his fingers. Using a series of stills from Vantage Point, the Not-So-Exciting Life of Brian Palmer blog makes the compelling case that Dennis Quaid is really doing the most exciting work today in the realm of making-number-two-faces.

Does Landing The Cover Of People’s ‘Most Beautiful’ Issue Come With A Curse?
9:40AM Molly Friedman | Today, People has revealed that Kate Hudson will appear as the cover girl for their 2008 Most Beautiful People issue, and we’d certainly like to send out a hearty congrats to the recently divorced single mum who’s currently nursing Owen Wilson back to health. But after taking a look back at the list of stars who’ve previously nabbed the annual issue’s cover spot, we fear there may be a curse accompanying the glossy honour. Sure, Leonardo DiCaprio (1998) and Julia Roberts (2000, 2005) haven’t slipped up since having their smiley visage top the list, but a sizeable chunk of the winning alumni eerily saw their public and private lives undergo a downward spiral following their appearance on the issue’s cover. We took a closer look at the possible curse-laden honour after the jump: More »
8:30AM Defamer Hollywood | Anyone who saw his appearance on Ellen today knows that Thomas Haden Church is a real laugh riot. Just ask Thomas Haden Church. His favourite joke? Showing his dick to people. After flashing his junk on the set of Sideways — not exactly the indie version of Porky’s — the numbnuts mechanic from Wings decided the best way to keep his second chance at success going was to flash another cast and crew. On the set of his new film Smart People (which, judging from the preview, looks too dumb for smart people and too boring for dumb people) Church once again showed off his junk. “Dennis and the cameraman enjoyed that… Dennis whirled in disgust and left the set.” Perhaps it is the belief that a successful joke clears the room which makes Church leave his “sticky fruits flopping around” all the time. Or maybe a better explanation can be found in the actor’s own initials, THC. We’re just saying… [Contact Music] More »
