The streaming entertainment service, which announced last fall that it'll host new episodes of "Arrested Development" in 2013, is seeking six fans for walk-on roles. How Lee Daniels found his 'Paperboy' castEven without knowing the plot to Lee Daniels' "The Paperboy," you probably know who's starring in it. Thanks to a now infamous scene between Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron, in which Kidman urinates on her younger co-star, those two actors have drawn plenty of attention to the project.

Drama continues for 'Idol' judges Nicki Minaj, Mariah CareyThe verbal battle between Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj might be turning into a war. On Thursday, as "The View's" Barbara Walters told Carey's side of the "American Idol" argument that took place earlier this week, Nicki Minaj unloaded her side on her Twitter account. Ron Livingston 'extremely proud' of sister Jennifer"Office Space" actor Ron Livingston is cheering on his sister, TV news anchor Jennifer Livingston, as she takes on a viewer who emailed her a critique of her weight. Jennifer, an anchor with WKBT in Wisconsin, went on air Tuesday morning to address the viewer, Kenneth Krause, who told her that "obesity is one of the worst choices a person can make and one of the most dangerous habits to maintain. I leave you this note hoping you'll reconsider your responsibility as a local public personality to present and promote a healthy lifestyle." Watch: 'Lincoln' gets a new trailerTaking advantage of the night's presidential theme, a new trailer for Steven Spielberg's November biopic "Lincoln" arrived on Wednesday. A clip for the project debuted last month during a Google Play event, but Spielberg cautioned viewers that it provided "only a slight texture, a little tone or offering of the tone of the film." That tone has shifted slightly with the new trailer, as the two-minute clip, titled "Unite," ramps up the action. |
