Will ‘Twilight’ Make Studio Turnaround Fashionable at Last? [Trade Secrets] [ November 21st, 2008 ] Posted in » Celebrities

Paramount production president Brad Weston has had a squirmy few days since Patrick Goldstein outed him as the man who put Twilight in turnaround at the studio, deflecting blame where he can while watching the movie blossom into a potential billion-dollar franchise for Summit Entertainment. But listen closely through the catcalls and snickers around town, and you’ll hear a voice imploring calm, even understanding: Turnaround is a good thing!

Or so argues an anonymous filmmaker who today sent word to Hollywood Elsewhere praising the timeless tradition of unloading book and script options, lest they moulder in middle management’s closets instead of rocketing past a green light on another lot:

“When Goldstein ran that story, it increased the level of paranoia in the studios and now people aren’t as likely to put projects into turnaround, which is what saves or releases some projects and results in their being made into films at other studios [...] Let’s say I have a property that’s owned by a studio and it’s not working out. In this situation a studio exec saying to me ‘Fine, I’ll put it into turnaround and let you have it, take it across the street to Warner Bros. and God speed’ is usually an act of benevolence. It saves a project from death.

“Now with this Weston thing, a lot more studio execs and [sic] going to say ‘Sure, I let you take it elsewhere and then two years from now I’ll read about how I’m the asshole who let a big hit go to some other studio? Fuck it, I’m going to hang onto it. I’d rather have the project die here than have it go elsewhere than have an article turn up down the road that’ll make me look stupid.’”

All right, all right, Weston, we get it — you did the right thing. Turnaround for all! You first, Poltergeist.

Heidi Montag is a ‘cheap’ whore, says fashion industry (I might’ve added the whore part)

Thumbnail image for 0828_heidi_montag_groceries_02.jpg

In a glaring example the Apocalypse is at hand, The Hills is a hot commodity these days. Major fashion designers send thousands of dollars worth of clothing to Lauren Conrad and Audrina Patridge. However, Heidi Montag is left out of this circle of love because, obviously, she has the public persona of a retarded hooker. Fox News reports:

One of Los Angeles’ leading fashion reps (who is often responsible for dressing the likes of Miley Cyrus, Angelina Jolie, Fergie and Carmen Electra) told Pop Tarts that Heidi’s public persona is a little too cheap even for casual (but classy) brands.
“They don’t want their stuff on Heidi, even despite the fact that she is very media-friendly and is photographed a lot,” the rep said. “It’s just not the caliber of celebrity most clients go for.”

Other celebrities of a higher caliber than Heidi Montag:

1. The guy on the Pringles can.
2. Ross Perot.
3. Remember the dude who’s getting a Dell?
4. Jon Stamos. (Marginally.)
5. The Phillie Phanatic.
6. Me. (I want free shit! Size: SEXY.)

Then diabetic Nick, told Girl’s Life Magazine, “On one date, the girl said to me, ‘I don’t kiss on the first date.’ So I said, ‘I don’t follow the rules.’ Ooooh! It was so good!”

This is so much hotter than when Troy and Gabriella shared their first kiss! I can’t help but be glued to all the Disney kid drama!

Miley Cyrus is Sort of Sorry

In a recent interview, Miley Cyrus was asked about her YouTube mockey of Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato.

The Hannah Montana star said she was sorry, but her contrition sounded less convincing. More than once, a jealous Cyrus said Gomez and Lovato were being “funny” and that’s her “thing.”

Watch the clip now and then let us know: Do believe Miley really feels bad about making fun of Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato?

More Miley Cyrus photos leak

More “scandalous” pics of Miley Cyrus making out with ex-boyfriend Thomas Sturges hit the web today. I know most of you probably think this is no big deal but did you know that, like Miley, 99% of hardcore porn stars kissed a boy when they were in their teens? Makes you think.

YOU TUBE FIGHT!

Selena Gomez is often called the next Miley Cyrus, which doesn’t seem to sit too well with Miley Cyrus, who is the current Miley Cyrus. And in her latest youtube video, Miley vents a little bit in a none too subtle way. Us magazine says…

In a new YouTube video, Miley and her BFF Mandy mock Selena Gomez and her pal Demi Lovato.
Miley, 15, makes fun of a T-shirt Gomez, 16, wore and teases Demi, 15, about a gap she used to have in her teeth.
The clip surfaces the same week that sources tell Usmagazine.com that Selena is dating Miley’s ex Nick Jonas (a rep for the Jonas Brothers insists they’re just friends).

So yeah the video is just 5 minutes of teen girls squealing. But I hope they work things out. There was so much underlying tension in this video I could barely even get an erection.

It. Is. On.

Chick fight! Chick fight!

Even though TMZ says this video has been out since March and has already generated 3,000,000 views, Us Weekly thinks it’s hot news or something. From Us:

Miley Cyrus — a mean girl? In a new YouTube video, Miley and her BFF Mandy mock Selena Gomez and her pal Demi Lovato. Miley, 15, makes fun of a T-shirt Gomez, 16, wore and teases Demi, 15, about a gap she used to have in her teeth. (Source)

That video had almost everything a guy could possibly want in it. Teenage girls? Check. Too much make-up? Check. Grainy resolution? Check. About the only thing it’s missing is a knock-down-drag-out fight inside a kiddie pool filled with canola oil while I stand off to the side, dressed as Abraham Lincoln, shouting obscenities and throwing water balloons full of chocolate pudding at the two combatants.* Seriously though, I hope these two work out their differences soon. I’d hate to see the two get into an argument, start wrestling, and end up pulling each other’s hair. Of course, if that does happen, I’d appreciate it if they did it in slow motion.

*don’t ask . . . it was in college and I was WAY drunk

Selena Gomez is an Angel

Based on a recently-released YouTube video, Miley Cyrus wouldn’t agree with the headline above.

But Nick Jonas sure would!

Check out Selena Gomez dressed like an angel immediately below. Then, read her reaction to the aforementioned tiff with Cyrus…

Selena the Angel

Both Selena and best friend Demi Lovato were asked about the mockey of them by Cyrus and Mandy Jiroux. Each seemed rightfully perplexed about it:

Demi: “Um, I don’t…know. Like, I don’t know! Cuz I don’t know them. I was…surprised. I was kinda honored, but in the same way, I don’t know!”
Selena: “Yeah, I don’t really know what happened there… but I was surprised about it.”

WATCH MILEY AND MANDY MAKE FUN OF DEMI AND SELENA NOW AND THEN LEAVE A COMMENT ABOUT IT!

YouTube Tussle: Miley and Mandy Mock Selena and Demi

Wow.

The teen queen war is officially on!

For weeks now, a pressing debate on the Internet has been: Who is the next Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez or Demi Lovato? The Hollywood Gossip even pitted writer against writer on the issue, as readers have continued to weigh in with their opinions.

Based on the video below, though, it doesn’t seem as though Miley is pleased with this question being raised.

Here’s what you need to know before viewing it:

Gomez and Lovato posted a cute clip on YouTube of the two of them just chillin. For whatever bitter, mean-spirited, jealous reason, Cyrus and best friend Mandy Jiroux then published a video making fun of Selena and Demi.

There’s nothing subtle about it. Watch Miley and Mandy mock the rising Disney stars now:

Can Miley defenders defend their girl for this? Is she really so threatened by Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato that she feels the need to mock them publicly?

Or, might there be another reason for Cyrus’ sudden mean streak? Earlier this week, gossip reports have linked Selena with Nick Jonas, the rumored ex-boyfriend of - you guessed it - Miley Cyrus!

Are you on Team Miley/Mandy or Team Selena/Demi? WATCH THE VIDEO NOW AND WEIGH IN!
