Arnold Schwarzenegger`s career renaissance continues apace, with the big man currently in talks to star in Steve Pink`s remake of The Toxic Avenger. The Hot Tub Time Machine director will be bringing the `80s cult favourite back to the big screen, in which a nerdy janitor finds himself granted superpowers after being dumped in a barrel of toxic waste by a gang of bullies. Arnie won`t be playing the titular hero (Schwarzenegger as a nerdy janitor?), but rather a mentor, who shows our newly powerful protagonist how to channel his abilities for good. Schwarzenegger will play a character known as ...

Lady Gaga has a legion of followers she has affectionately dubbed her "little monsters." However one of her paid followers is taking the title literally. Gaga (real name Stefani Germanotta) is being sued by her former assistant/best friend, Jennifer O'Neil, who is claiming she was never paid overtime during the many years she worked for the singer. In a six-hour court session, the Born This Way singer fired a barrage of expletives at the woman she called "a f-cking hood rat who is suing me for money that she didn't earn." During the course of the case - which Gaga claims is "bullsh-t, and you ...

Each week, Hollywood gives us something to whine about, and the week of Jan. 28 was no different. We could make a drinking game out of this week, but that would be too dangerous. Instead, we'll stick to the usual formula: varying levels of alcoholic respite depending on how bothersome the week's issues are. Is your biggest complaint this week a flimsy one? How about a light cocktail to take the edge off? Got a real bone to pick with a celeb or entertainment entity this week? Go ahead, grab a drink that'll put hair on your chest. Here are the week's entertainment stories that are forcing us to ...

Already a month into 2013, some of us might be taking issue with the year`s deficit of opportunity for pop culture showdowns. Following a particularly fruitful autumn - one drenched in battles of political (Elephants Vs. Donkeys and Pizza Vs. Burritos), athletic (Tigers Vs. Giants), and fantastical (Edwards Vs. Jacobs and Trolls Vs. Dwarves) natures - the New Year has propagated quite a civil attitude on the pop culture front… save for an inceptive Babies Vs. Old Men mêlee. And while we saw a good deal of historic events hit the headlines in January - like pre...

February 10 is Grammy night and we can't wait. And it seems as if we are not alone. Drake was all set to unveil the first track off his yet-to-be-titled third album that night, but it appears as if he couldn't wait either. The Canadian rapper took to his official website to give what he called his "good friends" a first look at his new single, "Started From the Bottom," saying "I didn't feel I needed any interviews or radio or press to launch this song. It felt right to come back to the site that I started on and release it to the people that started here with me. Judging by this post, the tou...

Maybe it was the excitement of free makeup, but Christina Ricci has finally admitted that yes, she is engaged. On Friday the actress was helping unveil the Make Up For Ever Remix Make Up Bag and Mobile Tour when she confirmed the news to Us Weekly. When asked if the ring she has been sporting since last October was an engagement ring, the 32-year-old replied, "Yeah. [It happened] a couple months back."The guy who did the asking is James Heerdegen, a dolly grip she met on ...

Another day, another celebrity pregnancy announcement! Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem are the latest A-list couple expecting a sure-to-be-gorgeous baby in 2013. According to People, the 38-year-old Cruz is pregnant with the couple`s second child. And according to source at E! News, the actress is about three months along. No news yet on the gender of the baby but considering the couple already has a 2-year-old son Leonardo, wouldn't it be lovely if the family added a little girl to the mix? Cruz needs to pass those stunning good looks onto some little lady. The Oscar-winning actors have b...

There's something about Miley Cyrus that elicits a strong reaction in people. Even in the days before her radical haircut and experimentation with salvia, something about Miley made people cry "slut." So much so that an artistic Annie Leibovitz photo taken for the cover of Vanity Fair in 2008 scandalized everyone from Disney on down. While a 15-year-old Cyrus understood that the topless photo "wasn't in a skanky way," parents were crying for Hannah Montana's cancelation. Now,...

Volatile, violent, rage-filled Chris Brown loves getting in fights - most recently with fellow rapper Frank Ocean. And then, after he has bandaged his hands and taken a nice long shower to cool down, Brown likes to release his remaining, suppressed feelings by whipping out the tempera paint. On Monday night, Brown posted to his Instagram account a painting of a rather burly Jesus being hung on the cross (pictured below) along with the caption, "Painting the way I feel today. Focus on what matters!" While the parallel Brown is drawing between his current predicament and one that a certain rel...

The Manti Te`o story has many sports journalists feeling the irrevocable sting of not double-checking the details. How could so many professionals, whose jobs are to dig up the dirt and check the facts, miss the detail that Te`o`s inspiration for his Heisman Trophy-eligible 2012 season was a woman who didn`t exist? In hindsight, it seems inconceivable. But the answer is simple. The story in which Te`o lost his girlfriend right after losing his grandmother and right before playing the best football of his Notre Dame career is prime for a movie a la Rudy or...

Here`s a little something that the beautiful people of Hollywood haven`t really figured out yet: Tattoos. Are. Permanent. This is just a humble suggestion, but if you`re going to use a needle to forever brand a symbol or a phrase into your skin, you should probably double-check the spelling first. It`s embarrassing enough when you send a misspelled tweet into the blogosphere, but if you`ve imprinted an incorrect message into your body, well, you`re just a special kind of dumb. So, who`s the latest celebrity to fall victim to a tattoo faux pas? That would be miss Ashley Greene. The Twilight ...

Whatever happened to that wide-eyed, innocent, barely adolescent country girl who released the song "Blue" and shocked the world with her soulful voice? She turned into LeAnn Rimes. Sorry, let me clarify: she turned into the husband-stealin', Twitter-feudin', Real Housewife-hatin' LeAnn Rimes we know today. Sometime between 1996 and 2013 (okay, 2009), the spotligh...

In 1956, Iowa native Pauline Phillips, aspiring writer and established source of personal wisdom, got a job doling out advice to the readers of the San Francisco Chronicle. Under the pen name Abigail Van Buren, Phillips would come to reach an audience of over 100 million, earning an iconic stature in the worlds of print, pop culture, and life lessons. She is known best as the moniker with which she titled her column: Dear Abby. Sadly, TMZ reports that Phillips, born Pauline Friedman, died on Wednesday at the age of 94, following a lengthy battle with Alzheimer's Disease.Phillips was only the ...

While many may consider Scott Disick - on-again-off-again beau and baby daddy to Kourtney Kardashian - too plastic to be considered dreamy, once upon a time he was a bonafide teen heartthrob. The evidence? His chiseled visage graced the covers of not just one, but a series of teen novels. inTouch has unearthed Disick's likeness on the cover of the Heartland series, by Lauren Brooke. Somehow it makes perfect sense to us that 12-year-old girls in 2001 would swoon over Disick while reading heartwarming tales of love and self-discovery set on a horse farm. What makes less sense is that Disick has ...

This week is all about moves, BIG moves. The Princess of pop, Miss Britney Spears, is climbing up Billboard's Hot 100 chart with her single "Scream & Shout" with will.i.am. Last week, the single was stuck at No. 8, but this week it has bounced up to No. 6.Spears isn't the only one to begin a steady climb on up the ladder: Macklemore and Ryan Lewis' "Thrift Shop" has jumped from No. 5 to No. 2, landing just behind Bruno Mars' "Locked Out Of Heaven." Swedish House Mafi...

Picture this: a high school-turned-collegiate football phenom from a family of similarly-gifted pigskin pushers, fresh off an incredible four years at Notre Dame University. He is crushed by the deaths of two women very close to him - his grandmother and doting girlfriend - within hours of each other. He goes on to lead his team to an epic upset victory against rival Michigan State. A surefire prospect for the upcoming NFL draft. This is the life of Manti Te'o: an inspirational one, at least at first glance. But there's a huge chunk of it that's also a lie. A big, weird, rambling lie.You know ...

Samuel L. Jackson wants you to stop calling his phone and trying to reconcile that old flame. Because you're never, ever, ever getting back together. He would probably prefer you talking to your friends, or his friends, or - heck - even him, but he wants to assure you that you're never, ever, ever getting back together. He's so adamant about this fact that he's decided to tell you in song. Thankfully, perma-surprised Kewpie doll...

Teen Mom 2star Jenelle Evans, 21, is the poor man's Kim Kardashian. Strip away Kim's mansion, the fancy clothes, the celebrity friends, and you start to see the similarities: for both, their fame is rooted in a sexual indiscretion (an unplanned pregnancy for Evans and a sex tape for Kardashian), they battle family drama, bad exes, sudden marriages, and most interestingly, both reality TV stars are watchers - and engineers - of their own publicity. Now, like Kar...

With the 21st century has come many an innovation to better our quality of life. Technology, medicine, our understanding of the universe in which we all live, has improved over the past 100 years. But in Hollywood, none of that matters... Well, it matters some, just not as much as other, more shallow, superficial issues. The most important thing the 21st century has brought us is: photos of hot women.GQ has unveiled their picks for the 100 hottest women of the 21st century, and we've rounded u...

Everyone knows the hardest role to play in Hollywood is that of the buxom bombshell. At least that`s what the latest profile of sex symbol Megan Fox seems to purport. But while there`s definitely room to examine the value the celebrity world places on certain traits for certain people - bombshells are people too, after all - Fox`s write-up in Esquire falls victim to the actress` evidently unavoidable allure. The problem is, her siren song is the surefire signal of an impending shipwreck. No matter how many times his words try to tell us about the thoughts going through her pretty little head, ...
