Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are getting back together again. They are teaming up for a legal drama where the "Good Will Hunting" co-stars will play two attorneys who represent a wrongfully accused murder suspect. With the recent amount of buzz from gay movies, they wanted to name the film "Brokeback Courtroom" and include some elements from their personal lives; however, it is a Disney movie, so they said "no" and bought a new company for kicks and giggles...
Speaking of kicks and giggles, everyone's favorite fake newscaster, Jon Stewart, will now be reporting from Fatherland. Stewart and his wife welcomed their new baby girl into the family. Stewart is no stranger to fatherhood, however, as the celebrity already has a son. This week's topics on "The Daily Show:" Making fun of foreign policy, making fun of Bush, and how to change a diaper and stop crying...
Tears were abound last week at the 48th Annual Grammy Awards when they were handed out and U2 walked away as the big winner, winning five golden trophies for the night and 21 in total throughout their career. Mariah Carey, Kanye West, and Kelly Clarkson were also among the popular winners of the evening. Clarkson apologized for crying on national television again, but I think the only person who should have cried was Gwen Stefani for the fact that U2 beat her for Album of the Year. Talk about robbery...
In something of a rip-off and following the run of "Brokeback Mountain," Kevin James and Adam Sandler are teaming up for the new gay comedy "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry." The movie centers around two firefighters who pose as gay partners for the benefits of civil unions. The movie is expected to make a big controversy over gay marriage rights when it hits theatres. Soon, with all these movies dealing with the same theme, Hollywood will be making the most in-style subculture of America, out of style. Is that even possible? The gay population with no style? It will be a dark day on 5th Avenue when that happens...
