More Lindsay Do-Gooding. Next stop Guatemala

It's been reported by Lindsay's Mom that Lilo will be taking a trip to Guatemala soon to do some more work like she did in India, which we recently reported here at the Post.

Looks like she is really turning things around.

We wish her a great New Year and hope we get to see her in a great movie role this year. It's a shame that her private life, in the last few years, has overshadowed her promising acting career.

All the best in 2010 Lindsay!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy New Year Everybody!

God Bless and Be Safe Out There!!!

Rip Taylor - Toupees, Confetti, and Big Laughs!

Rip Taylor kills me. He's a legend and a true icon of campy comedy!

Just ran across a great new video of his comedy on youtube that I have to share with you. I am working on getting an interview set up with him, so if the comedy gods are smiling on me, we just may have that up soon.


Rip is one of the legends of comedy who is still hard at work, doing what he loves and making us laugh. You can check out his new website here if you want to find out more about him.
Also if you have never seen the classic episode of Password where he yanks his toupee off, you are truly missing an awesome live television moment.







Keep up the great work, we love you Rip!

Bloggin' for Dollars- Episode Two

If you have ever wondered what the life of a Hollywood blogger is really like, wonder no more! I'm starring in a new show, Bloggin' for Dollars, based on my life. Here is Episode 2- Hanukkah Drawers. In this episode I deal with underwear related antics from my cousin Sean who, as usual, makes it a challenge for me to get any actual blogging done. Hope you enjoy!

We'll miss you Brittany...

My condolences to the family and friends of Brittany Murphy who we lost this past week. She was in one of my favorite movies, Clueless, other than that I don't know much about her as a person but I do know that's too damn young for a life to end. RIP Brit.

Lindsay Lohan Do-Gooding In India

So, Lindsay Lohan was recently in India where she was part of a BBC Three documentary on child trafficking. While there, she also visited a charity home for girls and helped raise the spirits of the kids there.

And I ask, Does she get any credit for this?
Of course not.

Why?
Because Lohan-hating is a national pastime.

Again I must defend Lindsay. And again I am probably a lone voice crying out in the wilderness. Be that as it may, I must say to her, "Good job Lindsay!"

I have read about her tweet (since removed) where she allegedly said that, "she saved 40 children" or whatever, and that sounds a little silly, but maybe she was excited to be helping out!

Did anybody think to give her the benefit of the doubt?
Of course not.

Why?
Because of the National Lohan-Haters League, which most of the U.S. seems to be a member of.

As usual all of these boneheads are coming out of the woodwork trying to condemn her...I don't know exactly what she said, and frankly I don't care, because it doesn't negate the fact that she's working on a worthwhile documentary and visiting POOR, SAD, INDIAN KIDS for crissakes.
We're all a bunch of armchair critics in this country.
Here's what I want to ask all of these people criticizing her...

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN TO INDIA?
ARE YOU DOING ANYTHING TO HELP THESE KIDS?

OF COURSE YOU HAVEN'T, AND OF COURSE YOU AREN'T!! So until you go to India and visit exploited children pipe down and let Lohan do her thing!

Does anyone else agree with me or am I alone on this Lohan thing?

I Fear For Steven Segal's Hair Light Guy's Job

Ever since Sensei Seagal has been shooting this reality show "Lawman", I have been fearing that quite possibly his "hair light guy's" job is in jeopardy. "What is 'hair light guy', and why is his job in jeopardy you ask?

Well Petunia, he is the technician that is part of the entourage that accompanies, or used to accompany, Seagal on his movie shoots. As the moniker suggests, "hair light guy" (not his real title BTW), is solely responsible for lighting Seagal-san's hair to give it maximum "volume" and "coverage" shall we say. Now, I fear that the "reality" oriented nature of the show may render "hair light guy" obsolete. His job is difficult enough on a movie set, where he is often at odds with directors about the way a crucial shot for the movie may conflict with his maximizing, volumizing, and coverizing hair duties. Imagine the dilemma he must face while chasing criminals!
"Sweet Jesus, those overhead flourescents in the liquor store are blowing out the hairline!!" he'd yell as he ran after Seagal-san wielding his "HairLight 2000" with the Special Hairline Scrim. Sweet Jesus indeed.

I haven't seen this show yet and apparently at the Neilsen Rate it's going, I may miss it.
On James Hibberd's The Live Feed today:

"Steven Seagal took a hard knock in the ratings for the second week of A&E's "Lawman."The show's back-to-back episodes dropped to 2 million viewers Wednesday night -- down 43%. "

Bad news for the show but probably good news for "hair light guy". Anyway I wish them both luck!
By the way, for the record, I dig you Seagal. Love your old movies and think you're really cool, so there's no reason to snap my arm off and beat me with it, or anything like that.

Shalom and Namaste.

Entourage Movie News

Just read this piece from Defamer. It's obviously a bit snarky but I dig the news. I say this because I'm still an Entourage fan (so what sue me, I also still listen to old Kid Rock sometimes...What!!), anyway it sounds pretty cool to me, like I said, sue me.

Anyway, the whole article can be read here: http://defamer.gawker.com/5419068/marky-wahlbergs-nightmarish-vision-for-entourage-the-movie

Here's the gist though:

"If you thought you might be rid of Vinnie Chase and the boys anytime soon, think again (insert Ari Goldesque homophobic epithet here). The gang is taking it to the big screen!"

"After a season in which it seemed HBO's tribute to guys who like to hang out with each other and drive expensive cars had run out of varieties of awful to explore; after it seemed there were no depths of storytelling incompetence left to plunder, many entertainment lovers dared to dream that even the show's producers might be getting tired of this charade."

"In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter's Roger Friedman, Executive Producer Marky Mark Walhberg revealed that the show has not one but two seasons left in it (we would love to know the science behind that calculation). And then he uttered the words, the words which for years now have sat lurking at the far reaches of our unconscious, the nightmare that we know lay in wait but we dared not consciously consider." (Richard Rushfield, Defamer)

The Mighty Boosh

I was recently introduced to the Mighty Boosh by a friend of mine, and I have been hooked ever since watching my first episode. It is a strange and hilarious show that could only have created by the English. You can support the Babylon Post if you purchase at the link below. It's nearly the holidays, The Mighty Boosh would make a wonderful gift! (hint, hint)

Hope everyone is doing well...Cheers!
