Nicole Kidman Bails Out Of Woody Allen Film

Josh loposer — Wed, 13 May 2009 17:02:00 GMT

Woody Allen's next film, scheduled to start shooting this summer, is now looking for a new leading lady, since Nicole Kidman has unexpectedly walked away from the role. Is she clearing her schedule to spend more time with that alpaca? Or could it be something else?

Nicole was all set to appear alongside all sorts of big shots like Josh Brolin, Naomi Watts, Anthony Hopkins and Antonio Banderas -- a totally stacked all-star cast. Then, all of the sudden, she's out.

As of yet, she's given no reason for the sudden withdrawal, but it seems pretty obvious why she won't have time for a Woody Allen film shoot when you take a look a the number of pregnancy rumors going around about the Australia actress.

When she was pregnant with Sunday Rose, Nicole didn't show until way late in the pregnancy, so there's just no way to hold back the speculation that Nicole is knocked up -- but will these rumors be confirmed? Is Nicole just taking a break to relax, or is she expecting?

Madonna and Lourdes Talk It Out (Video)

Whit Honea — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 22:34:00 GMT

If there is one thing I love it's making fun of people. Luckily, I do it for a living. Life is good.

Still, I can't say I'm a fan of making fun of kids, no matter how crazy their parents are.

That being the case here is a video making fun of Madonna and her daughter Lourdes. I'm torn on this as the joke on Lourdes isn't her fault, but rather the result of grooming policies established by her mother.

On the other hand the role of Lourdes is obviously the hero in this video, so there's that.

I'm not sure who is playing Lourdes, or whether the actor is a young girl or a man. If I wasn't late for Happy Hour I'd look it up, but since people are just going to leave nasty comments regardless of how much effort I put into this post I'm going to run. $2 pints don't drink themselves.

Lark Previn died on Christmas Day. Previn was the daughter of Mia Farrow and Andre Previn.

Lark, who had been ailing for some time, had two daughters, Sara (13) and Christine (12).

Lark's sister is Soon-Yi Previn who is married to their one time stepfather(ish) Woody Allen.

Our condolences to the family and friends of Lark, but especially her children.

Woody in Warsaw

Woody Allen and his family spent part of their holiday season in the winter wonderland that is Warsaw.

It kind of looks like the Grove. I wonder how long before the rest of Hollywood is hanging out there.

Holy Crap! Is That an Engagement Ring on Jennifer Aniston's Finger?

Karl Erikson — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 11:28:00 GMT

You're going to think I'm making this up, but Jennifer Aniston went out for a meal with Woody Allen Tuesday night at Madeo in Hollywood. Yeah, THAT Woody Allen, the genius director with a penchant for creepy romantic relationships. With his daughter.

But that's not even the part I'm not making up! Jennifer was sporting a ring on her WEDDING FINGER! No joke, look closer at that photo!

Sure, there was a rumor Jen was getting married a few weeks ago to John Mayer. Turned out to be false, and they broke up because Jen wanted to settle down and have a family and have John cut down on his touring. He opted out.

Still, who the hell wears a ring on THAT finger unless they're getting married?

What do you think, people?

GQ Presents the Most Whipped Husbands in the WORLD!

Whit Honea — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 22:34:00 GMT

GQ has compiled a list of men that have been subjected to the proverbial "p" whipping by their bossy and/or powerful women. Many of them are fathers as well. I think there is a big difference between being a dotting dad and wuss, I hope GQ took that into consideration.

That said, here's the list:

25. Mark Consuelos, wife Kelly Ripa
24. Rudolph Giuliani, wife Judy
23. Larry King, wife Shawn Southwick
22. Michael Douglas, wife Catherine Zeta-Jones
21. Seal, wife Heidi Klum
20. Kevin Smith (the Clerks director), wife Jennifer Schwalbach
19. Sergay Brin (34-year-old Google wunderkind), wife Anne Wojcicki
18. Ben Stiller, wife Christine Taylor
17. Gerald Levin (the former CEO of Time Warner), wife Laurie Perlman
16. Jack Welch (the former General Electric chair-man and CEO), wife Suzy Wetlaufer
15. Tim Burton, wife Helena Bonham Carter
14. Keith Urban, wife Nicole Kidman
13. Elton John, husband David Furnish
12. John Edwards, former presidential candidate, wife Elizabeth
11. Woody Allen, wife Soon-Yi Previn
10. Ashton Kutcher, wife Demi Moore -he's top 5 for sure
9. Howard Stern, wife Beth Ostrosky
8. Rupert Murdoch (Aussie billionaire), wife Wendi Deng
7. Kurt Warner (quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals), wife Brenda
6. Marc Anthony, wife Jennifer Lopez -shouldn't he be higher?
5. Josh Kelly, wife Katherine Heigl
4. Bill Gates, wife Melinda
3. Eminem, wife Kimberly
2. Doug Christie, wife Jackie
1. Guy Ritchie, wife Madonna

There is a slideshow at GQ that explains why each man made the list. It's pretty funny, at least it seems like it is, my wife wouldn't let me read it.

Woody Allen: The Creepy Genius

Whit Honea — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 13:03:00 GMT

Here's Woody Allen and his one-time "not" stepdaughter/current wife, Soon-yi Previn, in Barcelona with their daughter Manzie.

The guy is funny, I get it. Still, over 15 years later that whole story just gives me the heebie jeebies, and I'm not just being neurotic.

Lock Up Your Stepdaughters: Woody Allen Arrives In Spain.

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 14 Jun 2007 14:05:00 GMT

Woody Allen and his stepdaughter - I mean wife, Soon Yi Previn, are seen here in a rare family photo with their two daughters Bechet, 8 and Manzie, 7. Allen, 71, and his stepdaughter - I mean wife (geez, there I go again!) Previn, 36, arrived in Spain recently where they'll stay while he films his yet-to-be-titled film project starring Penelope Cruz and Scarlett Johansson.

Mia Farrow was said to be close behind, adopting all the young girls in order to keep Allen from dating them.

I don't want to be too hard on the guy. I'm a big Woody Allen fan, and one of my favorite movies of all time is still 'Annie Hall.' But I have to admit I was a little creeped out when Allen, then 57, started dating 22-year-old Soon-Yi who was the adopted daughter of his then-girlfriend Farrow.

Talk about needing a bigger dating pool.
