Blow-han describes her rehab experience as “sobering.” In other news, my last airplane flight was “uplifting.” And when I stood on the people-mover on the way to the gate, it, like, totally “moved” me.
Lindsay claims she’s about to shoot a movie called Dare to Love Me, and I think it’s cute that she thinks it’s going to get a theatrical distribution deal. [MSN]
Drunken, maniac dyke Michelle Rodriguez prepares for the full Chained Heat experience, as she’s been sentenced to 180 days in jail. Study those Linda Blair movies, Michelle, and just remember: Stay away from plungers. Unless you’re into that sort of thing. [DListed]
Oh my God, it’s John Krasinski in the shower (sort of SFW, depending on where you, um, W). We’re gonna need to be alone for a few minutes. [WinterTyppe]
So here’s some good news: After three years of tickling our fancies as Jim on The Office, John Krasinski has his first lead movie role this summer in License to Wed. The bad news: The movie co-stars Robin Williams, whose shtick is only funny to 6-year-olds and coke addicts (which explains his popularity in the ’80s), and the trailer’s pretty lame.
Labored pratfalls? Projectile baby-piss jokes? A lil’ bastard sidekick for Williams? Mandy Moore? Poor John looks to have been dealt a pretty rough hand on this one, even though the director is Ken Kwapis, who frequently calls the shots on The Office.
I’ll still probably check it out when it opens July 4, just to see how Krasinski’s knee-weakening puppy-dogness translates to the big screen, and because its only competition that weekend is Transformers. But I’ll reserve my high hopes for Leatherheads, the 1920s football flick that Krasinski shot under the direction of George Clooney, who we know will at least take care to light John properly.
