Just when you thought the bulk of 'American Idol' panel drama was done, a major bombshell has been revealed about the judges: Producers tried wooing Jennifer Lopez back to replace Mariah Carey in the middle of this season. Yikes!
Well this should be cause for concern among celebs about the security at the Grammys. A would-be speech crasher with a history of bugging celebs at high-profile events was about to swoop in and annoy Adele as she accepted her Grammy for Best Solo Pop Performance on Sunday night (Feb. 10) when Jennifer Lopez swooped in and saved the day with quick flick of her sunkissed wrist.
'Parker' is not Jason Statham's best movie, but it may have his defining onscreen moment, a perfect, succinct summation of everything pleasurable about his onscreen persona. His character, a thief and con man named Parker, has returned to his hotel room in Palm Beach. He's surprised by an assassin; since this is a Jason Statham movie, an elaborately choreographed fight scene ensues.
The assassin's weapon of choice is a knife and after he gets Parker in a headlock, he tries really hard to get Statham's face acquainted with the finer points of his blade. The knife keeps inching closer and closer to his eyeball -- so to save himself, Parker sticks up his hand and willingly lets the assassin stab him through his palm. The sacrifice gives him just enough of breather to gain the upper hand. That is The Cinema of Jason Statham in a nutshell: action and indomitable determination. His characters are all men who'll stop at nothing to win; an echo of Statham's onscreen work ethic -- he'll stop at nothing to entertain you. Even in a vehicle as average as "Parker," Statham still delivers an intensely committed performance.
Jennifer Lopez made some sweeping changes in her gold-plated life in the past year-plus.
She split with hubby and baby daddy Marc Anthony. She left the 'American Idol' judging panel after a two-year run. She took up with a dancer nearly 20 years her junior.
But when you look and feel as good as J. Lo, you have no regrets, and that's just what she says in her new PEOPLE cover, where she is youthfully yet glam thanks to stick straight hair, blunt bangs and a fuzzy blue cardigan.
Jennifer Lopez leads a weird life in a completely different realm from the rest of us. We can give her some credit for seeming to be a decent person and having some business savvy, but her usual “I’m just one of you” down-to-earth thing is a little too much to take.
Dear J. Lo, you are a ridiculously rich celebrity whose life hasn’t resembled normal in more than two decades. Please admit this to yourself and stop trying to pretend otherwise.
You’re not that good an actress.
Looks like Jennifer Lopez won't be awarded $20 million she likely couldn't collect anyway after she sued her former chauffeur for blackmailing her -- because her suit was dismissed by a judge on Dec. 21.
We know celebrities have certain strange demands -- like requiring mere peasants to not look them in the eyes or to make sure fresh flowers are within eyesight -- but did Jennifer Lopez fall victim to one such escapade at the hands of a maid?
Jennifer Lopez dealt with a wardrobe malfunction back in the winter at the Oscars when her dangerously low-cut dress migrated a little, showing a bit too much of her lovely lady lumps. She apparently suffered another nip slip, this time while she was performing on stage in Italy. So her second nip slip of 2012 was just as public as the first.
