Real Burlesque Performer Not Pleased With Cher Movie
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Sony, Music, Musicals, Videos,
“What do I do in my show you wouldn’t see in that movie? Burlesque!” These words are from real-life burleque performer Kiki Valentine, who’s none too thrilled with the much-hyped, Golden Globe-nominated flick starring Cher and Christina Aguilera.
Valentine has been performing at the Ella Lounge in New York City for the last two years … but now, she’s quitting because of her unhappiness with the flick named after her art form.

2011 Golden Globe Nominations (Film)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, FOCUS, Disney, Fox Searchlight, Lionsgate, Paramount, Sony, Warner Bros, Weinstein Company, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Animation, Biopics, Drama, Family, Foreign, Foreign Language, Musicals, Period, Romance, Sequels, Comedy, Sports, Thrillers, Awards,
Katie Holmes, Josh Duhamel and Blair Underwood helped kick off the 2010-11 awards season Tuesday morning by formally announcing the latest round of Golden Globe contenders.
In the film category, The King's Speech -- starring Colin Firth, Helena Bonham Carter and Geoffrey Rush -- lead all nominees with a total of six nods. (The Fighter and The Social Network tied for second with six each.)
Although the Academy Awards will not necessarily mirror the choices made by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, there were some notable inclusions/omissions in this year's list of Globe nominees:
- Justin Timberlake did not earn an acting nomination for The Social Network.
- Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp were both recognized for their work in The Tourist, a movie that has been panned by critics. (BTW - they were nominated in the "Comedy" category.)
- Speaking of Depp, he will be running against himself. (He was also nominated for Alice in Wonderland.)
- Wall Street's Michael Douglas has now received another Golden Globe nod for his role as Gordon Gekko. (He won for Best Actor in 1987.)
- Gwyneth Paltrow did not earn a nomination for her role in Country Strong.
- 127 Hours was left out of the Best Movie category -- so was True Grit. (The Coen Brothers western received zero nominations.)
The 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards -- hosted again by Ricky Gervais -- will air Jan. 16 on NBC.

Pirates of the Caribbean: On Strangers Tides Trailer
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Disney, Action, Adventure, Sequels, Trailers, Upcoming Releases,
So a Johnny Depp/Angelina Jolie pairing didn't exactly equate to a box office hit. But what would you get if you had Depp, a (pregnant) Penelope Cruz, mermaids, zombies and Blackbeard? A future Disney hit.
Just a few days ago, the studio released the first pictures from Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. Now, we're getting a chance to see Captain Jack Sparrow in action.
Even if he fails to locate the Fountain of Youth, I doubt Depp will fail to debut in first place again. (At least not while he's wearing eyeliner.)
On Stranger Tides will open on May 20.

WARNING: This is not a G-rated clip.
Some of you will be forced to sit through Yogi Bear this weekend because of your kids. Others will seek out the film for nostalgia reasons.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader sailed to a first place finish this weekend despite a lackluster start. The latest C.S. Lewis adaptation – which was produced for an estimated $145 million – earned only $24 million in domestic sales. That figure is $31 million less than Prince Caspian’s debut and approximately $41 million below The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe’s premiere.
Landing into second place was The Tourist, which rang in a disappointing $16.5 million. Although the film boasted two big A-list stars (Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie), the thriller turned in Depp’s smallest open for a wide release since 1999’s The Astronaut’s Wife.

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Biopics, Drama, Casting, Upcoming Releases,
Fans of The Social Network may recognize Armie Hammer as the Winklevoss twins, but his next role is sure to prompt even more Facebook buzz.
Hammer has just signed on to play opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in Clint Eastwood’s J. Edgar Hoover biopic. While a source says there are “no bedroom scenes,” DiCaprio and Hammer will share at least one on-screen kiss in J. Edgar.
Armie plays Clyde Tolson, an associate director of the FBI. Like Hoover, Tolson is buried in D.C.’s Congressional Cemetery.
A rumored cross-dresser, Hoover has often been the source of speculation among historians.
