Where's the beef?
Not with Jessica Chastain or Woody Harrelson. I can exclusively reveal that PETA has named the two Hollywood superstars as this year's Sexiest Vegetarians...
Chastain went meat-free 15 years ago. Her vegan diet didn't stop her from packing on about 15 pounds for her Oscar-nominated role in The Help. "I had to be soft and curvy, so I ate a lot of soy," the ginger beauty told us last August before the film was released. "Soy helps you become curvy because it has estrogen in it. So what I would do—and this is really gross—is buy cartons of soy ice scream, microwave it and drink it. It was disgusting, [but] wait till you see my boobs in the movie."
Harrelson, who plays the alcohol-guzzlin' Haymitch Abernathy in The Hunger Games, turned vegan about 25 years ago because of health reasons.
"I used to eat burgers and steak, and I would just be knocked out afterward; I had to give it up," Harrelson, 50, said in an interview with Maxim magazine. "The first thing was dairy. I was about 24 years old and I had tons of acne and mucus. I met some random girl on a bus who told me to quit dairy and all those symptoms would go away three days later. By God she was right." Past Sexiest Vegetarian honorees include Kristen Wigg
Celine Dion being Sued!
A Florida handyman is suing Celine Dion for unpaid overtime claiming the singer is a tight-fisted taskmaster with her domestic employees. Keith Sturtevant said he was asked to work 48 to 60 hours a week by Dion and her husband Rene Angelil but offered no extra money beyond his $63,000 per year salary because he was a designated as a private contractor. “There is no question he worked just tons and tons of overtime hours, and when it came to a head, that is when he left,” Sturtevant’s lawyer Dennis Card told the Daily News.
“My client is not exempt from the Fair Labor Act, and they know it damn well,” Card, who filed the claim in federal court, said. Sturtevant claims he was the sole employee in charge of a warehouse controlled by Dion, 44, and also worked at her compound in Hobe Sound, Fla., performing “extensive” tasks such as cleaning house shutters, building book shelves, repairing kitchen items, setting up and tearing down event equipment and running errands. Dion’s rep was not immediately available for comment.
According to the complaint, Dion employed at least three other full-time maintenance workers as independent contractors “in an attempt to avoid paying workers compensation and appropriate federal withholding taxes.” Sturtevant was hired in March 2009 and worked for Dion until June, the lawsuit stated.
Card declined to discuss the exit. “His departure may be the subject of another lawsuit,” Card told The News.

Four Eyes: Google has created a new pair of glasses called Project Glass. The glasses feature a camera, a speaker, microphones, a processor and sensors. Google co-founder Sergey Brin says, "This is new technology and we really want you to shape it. We want to get it out into the hands of passionate people as soon as possible." Tom Cruise used a similar pair of glasses in Mission Impossible.
Mary-Kate Olsen's father doesn't approve of her relationship with 43-year-old Olivier Sarkozy. A source tells Perez Hilton, "Mary-Kate looks more like Olivier's daughter than girlfriend, and her dad is fuming over the relationship. While her twin sister Ashley has dated older guys, Mary-Kate hasn't, and her father is deeply concerned that Olivier is wrong as her new boyfriend. David found out that Olivier's been targeting younger women and is suspicious of his true intentions. He doesn't want Mary-Kate to be used."
Matt Lauer's wife, Annette, will be accompanying him to the Olympics. A source says, “Annette and the kids will all be going to the Olympics so she can keep very close tabs on Matt. Matt and his family will be staying at a different hotel than the rest of the cast and crew. Annette has made no bones about the fact she will be keeping close tabs on Matt.“

Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Thomas plan to text message their wedding invite on the day of their wedding. Jimmy Fallon, the cast of 30 Rock and Lorne Michaels are planning to attend the nuptials. Stephen Baldwin says, “I’m going. I haven’t been told the location yet. That’s about all I can say, because he [Alec] can still kick my butt.”
Oprah is impressed by the Kardashians. A source tells the Sun Times, “Oprah — of all people — deeply respects people who, like herself, have built a major business in the entertainment industry. In particular she was intrigued by Kim and how she has expanded that Kardashian brand — both for herself and for the entire family. Of course, Kris Jenner’s brilliance in originally creating and marketing the Kardashian brand also impressed Oprah.”
Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis' split could get ugly. A source tells the National Enquirer, “Vanessa is gunning for Johnny. She played a big part in his success and for years they shared everything. It’s only in recent months that they’ve lived separate lives. Vanessa hears about all these other women, and Johnny’s drinking and partying, and she can’t help wondering how long it’s been going on. And career-wise, while he was becoming a major movie star, she took a seven-year break from recording albums. Just because they never got married doesn’t mean she shouldn’t have the same rights as a wife. She feels she deserves a hefty portion of that $350 million fortune.”
Simon Cowell likes working with Britney Spears on The X Factor. He says, "There's kind of a mystique about her which I think is what what kind of attracted to me to her in the first place. I knew what I read, but I didn't know what was going on in her head and that's why I was kind of fascinated. She's taken the role really seriously who she thinks is a star and more importantly who isn't and I trust her instincts."
Magic Mike star Channing Tatum wore a clown suit when he stripped in his 20's. He says, "It was the worst idea that I had heard. I was like, 'Clowns aren't sexy - if anything they're scary. Why is this gonna work? 'And they were just like, 'Nah, nah - it kills, bro. It kills, bro. They're gonna love it.' I danced to like, '99 Red Balloons' or something, I come out and. crickets. Crickets! People didn't know if it was a joke [or] if it was supposed to be for real. No one cheered, no nothing. That was the last night I did that. I was like, 'What did I tell you?!"
Tatum also dressed as a Boy Scout. "It was my first night of stripping and my sister and six of her friends came my first night up, which was horribly mortifying. My sister didn't watch, but all her friends watched, all in the front row, and I'm just like, 'This Boy Scout routine is the worst idea ever!'" Magic Mike opens today.
Kelly Clarkson may be getting married. A source tells Perez Hilton, "Kelly's expecting an engagement ring by late summer and to be wed by year's end. Sure she wants to look great for Duets, but the driving force behind her weight loss is the holiday nuptials. Kelly has been eating [well] and exercising like crazy because she wants to look good for Brandon. She loves to tell him that when he pops the question she'll be at her ideal weight of 120lbs and ready to shop for wedding dresses." |
