Lady Gaga Under Fire After ‘PopStarsDontEat’ Comment

May 9, 2012 Category :Uncategorized 0

What was clearly intended as a jokey tweet lamenting the rigorous diet and exercise routine she is currently undertaking to prepare for her 110-date Born This Way Ball has put Lady Gaga in the crosshairs of some angry fans and eating-disorder organizations. On Tuesday, the pop star tweeted, “Just killed back to back spin classes. Eating a salad dreaming of a cheeseburger #PopSingersDontEat #IWasBornThisWay.” Some fans thought the tweet wasn’t exactly keeping with the pop star’s “You’re perfect the way you are” message and that her choice of the “#PopStarsDontEat” hashtag could be misinterpreted as encouraging eating disorders because she posits herself as a role model to her fans.

The National Eating Disorder Association even weighed in, hitting its own Twitter account to write, “Huh? This is the same person who recently implored girls to stop dieting?”

MTV Buzzworthy has an Open Letter To Lady Gaga While it seems clear that Gaga was joking ? who hasn’t dove into a salad wishing it was something else? ? the comment does appear out of character for the star, who has spoken publicly about her own struggles with an eating disorder as a teen. Using that particular hashtag might have been a poor choice, but it’s safe to say Lady Gaga wasn’t knowingly making light of eating disorders ? and, otherwise, wasn’t she mostly just encouraging exercise and healthy eating? Gaga tweets often about all sort of less-than-healthful habits, from drinking (“after 12 margaritas my phone was confiscated”) to, well, other things (“princess xena of xanaxland has lil secrets in her inbox”). Why she is being scrutinized for making an observation about something we already know ? that celebrities engage in intense fitness regimens to meet the unrealistic expectations placed on their appearance ? is kind of a mystery. But, you know, totally appropriate and necessary reason for outrage, everyone. Sound off on Gaga’s #PopSingersDontEat tweet in the comments below!

‘Star Wars’ Mystery Project: What Is ‘Star Wars 1313′?

May 9, 2012 Category :Uncategorized 0

Domain registrations have become one of the most common ways for a secret project to reach the web, and some new purchases on behalf of Lucasfilm could point to a new “Star Wars” project.

As /Film points out, George Lucas’ production company, Lucasfilm, recently started snapping up domain names featuring different combinations of “Stars Wars” and “1313.” The company bought “StarsWars1313.com,” “1313StarWars.com,” “SW1313.com,” and more than a dozen other combinations.

Buying web domains is one of the first taken after a project receives an official name, so the company won’t have to buy them back at inflated prices from crafty users looking to make a profit. If Lucasfilm has been buying domains, you can be almost certain that some new product is in the pipeline.

But what could it be? Fusible.com theorizes that “Star Wars 1313″ could have to do with the saga’s most popular minor character, the bounty hunter Boba Fett. As the site concludes, Boba Fett used the alias CT-1313 in a young adult novel in the Star Wars expanded universe, “Boba Fett: Maze of Deception.”

Before you get your hopes up that this is finally the standalone Boba Fett film you and Joe Johnston dream of at night, a filing with the United State Patent and Trademark Office for “Star Wars 1313″ indicates that this project is likely a new video game. Lucasfilm registered “Star Wars 1313″ for use in “interactive entertainment software and accompanying instruction manuals.” Sounds like a video game, huh?

Regardless, a Boba Fett video game would be nothing to complain about. We just may have to keep waiting for that movie. Help us, Joe Johnston. You’re our only hope.

Exclusive ‘Underworld: Awakening’ Featurette Explores Selene’s ‘Aggressive Behavior’

May 8, 2012 Category :Uncategorized 0

“Underworld: Awakening” marked the return of Kate Beckinsale to her lead role as Selena, the vampiric Death Dealer from the hit action-horror series.

The fourth film in the series hits Blu-ray and DVD today, so in honor of the release, we have an exclusive look at a featurette from the disk.

Learn more about the film after the jump!

In the clip, Beckinsale explains why making a woman-centric action film isn’t as simple as it may seem. “It’s hard to do an action movie with a woman in the lead because you can’t just flip it like it’s a guy,” she said. “The fact that she’s a woman is significant, and I think that’s what’s great about this movie is that she does become a mother.”

“Underworld: Awakening” is available on DVD, Blu-ray and 3D Blu-ray now.

What did you think of the “Underworld” featurette? Let us know in the comments below and on Twitter!

Westlife ‘Honored’ To Win MTV’s Battle Of The Boy Bands

May 8, 2012 Category :Uncategorized 0

Fans of Westlife spent the past two weeks tirelessly voting for their favorite group to win MTV’s Battle of the Boy Bands, and all their hard work paid off.

On Monday, the Irish boy band won it all, defeating the Jonas Brothers in the final round.

And for all those Westlife fans: Don’t think your voting went unnoticed. All four members, who are in London rehearsing for their upcoming farewell tour, took time out of their busy schedule to send over a message to MTV News thanking each and every one of you for their big win.

“Hi, MTV, we just found out that we’ve been voted the #1 ultimate boy band of all time. Thank you very much, guys!” Westlife’s Shane Filan said. “We are very, very honored.”

Nicky Byrne added, “I just want to say: Thank you to all of our followers, on Weibo in China, on Twitter around the world, on Facebook and everybody. To all the bands we beat, well done. It’s been an amazing 14 years for us, and to top it off, to win this is really, really incredible, so thank you to everybody who voted. See you on tour!”

After the first round of competition, when Westlife took down fan favorites the Backstreet Boys, we talked with Byrne via Skype, who told us a win in this competition would mean a lot to the band, since they have decided to break up after 14 years following the end of their tour next month.

“What an amazing story it would be to finish our final 14 years to be named or even get far in this competition,” Byrne said. “But even if we don’t, we’ll hold our heads very high and say we never cracked the States, but we gave them a run for their money.”

Well, Westlife, you certainly have! Congratulations to the group and all their dedicated fans.
