AMY ADAMS Elle UK Cover Girl

No, I don’t think this looks like Amy Adams at all, but then again I ALWAYS get her mixed up with Isla Fisher! It looks like someone definitely twerked with the photoshop a little too much here, but that’s just my opinion. The Hollywood actress graces the cover of Elle UK this month, where inside she talks about her career and insecurities. Here are a few highlights from her interview:

After filming Catch Me If You Can: “I choked. I felt this pressure to suddenly be this level of actress that I wasn’t confident enough to be. I did a series of really bad auditions, I let the nerves get the

Celebrity Prom Photos: President Obama, Brad Pitt, Lady Gaga & Many More!

Ah, prom season. This annual, awkward rite of passage may be winding down, but it lives on in photos for President Barack Obama and countless other celebs.

Time unearthed this classic photo from the future President’s 1979 prom in Hawaii. Take a look at the 17-year-old with his date and another couple:

Kelli Allman, second from left, says Obama spent his H.S. days studying, playing basketball (as a player on the varsity team) and hanging out with his friends.

Allman shares, “It was a really fun, happy time. We were all cracking up, and everyone was smiling. It was pretty typical

ENTER TO WIN: $100 Visa Card and Someday, Someday, Maybe From Lauren Ingraham

From Lauren Graham, the beloved star of Gilmore Girls and Parenthood, comes a witty, charming, and hilariously relatable debut novel about a struggling young actress trying to get ahead―and keep it together―in New York City.  It’s called Someday, Someday, Maybe.

It’s January 1995, and Franny Banks has just six months left of the three-year deadline she set for herself when she came to New York, dreaming of Broadway and doing “important” work. But all she has to show for her efforts so far is a part in an ad for ugly Christmas sweaters, and a gig waiting tables at a comedy club. Her

Benedict Cumberbatch on Meryl Streep: ‘I just couldn’t act, I was in awe of her’

You know this is The Year of Cumberbatch, right? It’s also The Year of McAvoy (he has a bunch of movies coming out in 2013), but today I just want to talk about Benedict Cumberbatch and his amazing 2013. This summer he stars in his first big-budget popcorn flick Star Trek Into Darkness. Then he has Twelve Years a Slave (with Michael Fassbender, Brad Pitt, etc). Then at the end of the year, he’s got three major films for the awards season – the second Hobbit film (The Desolation of Smaug), August: Osage County and The Fifth Estate, where he plays Julian Assange in what will probably be

2013 Golden Globe nominations: Nicole, Meryl, Cumby & Joaquin!

The Golden Globe nominations are out! Is this the first time that the SAG nominations came out a day before the Globe nominations? Did this happen last year? I forget. Anyway, you can go here to read yesterday’s WTF-ery with the SAG nominations. Surprisingly enough, compared to the SAGs, the Globes seem almost measured and reasonable. Sure, there are some surprises – like Nicole Kidman for The Paperboy AGAIN – but basically this list feels a lot better than the SAG noms. You can read the full list here and here, and here are the biggest categories:

Best Picture, Drama: “Argo” “Django

Clinton Falls Asleep During Obama Speech in Myanmar

There’s jet lag, and there’s jet lag after visiting more than 100 countries in four years, at which point no coffee, Red Bull or Five Hour Energy is gonna get it done.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton looked like she hit a wall right in the middle of President Obama’s speech in Myanmar on Monday, falling asleep briefly. Watch:

Clinton Falls Asleep in Myanmar

While Hillary, who sat next to Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, likely wishes she hadn’t nodded off, she shouldn’t worry all that much considering:

  1. She helped broker an Israel-Hamas cease fire 48 hours

Is Meryl Streep rolling her eyes at Julia Roberts’ ‘childish diva antics’ on set?

Have you ever heard Meryl Streep talk about women and the female experience and women’s history and women’s rights and feminism? She’s really into all things womanity. She’s ballsy, smart, dedicated, tough, educated, and political, and she doesn’t apologize for being any of those things. And most people don’t have any problems with her either, because A) she is one of America’s Greatest Treasures and B) she actually seems like a lovely woman in general. The only time anyone has dared to say anything negative about her, it was in the Enquirer, and it sounded like one of her neighbors who

Meryl Streep in a coral, belted dress at the ‘Hope Springs’ premiere: ageless & lovely?

My mother wants to see Hope Springs. I know she’s going to guilt me into taking her to see it. Hope Springs is that movie starring Meryl Streep and Tommy Lee Jones as an older married couple looking to rediscover their “spark” with the help of a marriage counselor played by Steve Carell. Considering Carell’s career trajectory (he usually plays lead characters at this point), I’m guessing he just did this movie because he wanted a chance to work with Meryl and Tommy Lee Jones. Now, I’ll see pretty much anything with Meryl, so that’s not my issue. I guess my issue is that Tommy seems
