Spirit Award nominations are out! Spirit Award nominations are out! Okay maybe you aren’t as excited as I am and to be honest I could give a rat’s left cancer-filled testicle about them, but if you are in the business of trying to predict Oscar nominations, then the Spirit Awards are a good indication.

Someone give me a drum solo…and the nominees are:

Best Feature

The Last Station
Precious
(500) Days of Summer
Amreeka
Sin Nombre

Best Female Actress

Maria Bello – Downloading Nancy
Nisreen Faour – Amreeka
Helen Mirren – The Last Station
Gabourey Sidibe – Precious
Gwyneth Paltrow – Two Lovers

Best Male Actor

Jeff Bridges – Crazy Heart
Colin Firth – A Single Man
Joseph Gordon-Levitt – (500) Days of Summer
Souleymane Sy Savane – Goodbye Solo
Adam Scott – The Vicious Kind

Best Director

Ethan and Joel Coen – A Serious Man
Lee Daniels – Precious
Cary Joji Fukunaga – Sin Nombre
James Gray – Two Lovers
Michael Hoffman – The Last Station

How G.I. Joe and Jennifer’s Body don’t make this list is beyond me. Those are the only two movies I even cared to see this year and if this organization can’t recognize their brilliance then I am uncertain of the legitimacy of these nominations. It doesn’t matter I guess. I am cheering for Cary Joji Fukunaga because the name is beyond awesome and it’s cool to know that an Asian sounding person directed a Spanish flick. It is similar to when people see me driving. They cheer me on because I have no eyes.

And for some reason my nose covers my belly button. Don’t ask.

John Travolta appeared on The Ellen Degeneres Show Wednesday, and expressed his gratitude for the support that his family has been receiving in regard to the death of his son Jett. He also talked about the family movie that they are releasing this month. It was an emotional moment for John, who appeared with his daughter Ella.

This Is It Makes It BIG

The Michael Jackson film This Is It was released on Tuesday night, worldwide, and fans showed their overwhelming support – $2.2 million on opening night alone. Certainly unprecedented, I wouldn’t be surprised if this film breaks even more records in the days to come.

Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift seem to be getting along quite well. The youngsters are starring together in a romantic comedy, Valentine’s Day, and have been spending a lot of quality time together. They have not officially announced that they are a couple, but I believe it’s just a matter of time. For what it’s worth, they seem to be a good match!

If there was any doubt left as to Miley Cyrus’ growing up, there should be none left by now. She was recently spotted on the set of Sex and the City 2, apparently filming a scene. She’s only 17 but she seems really comfy around older people. Does this mean we’ll have a whole new set of SATC viewers?

Zac Efron On His Movies: Boring

Gina — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 01:31:20 +0000

Who doesn’t think the same way? Well, I guess countless teenage fans of his. But Zac says he loves his latest, Me and Orson Welles, and he didn’t have to check his watch once. Now that’s what I call owning your work!

John Travolta, Kelly Preston, and Ella Bleu took the stage as a family at Disney’s D23 Expo last week in a surprise appearance. It hasn’t been a year since their son Jett died in an accident, and the family has not appeared in public since then. Their new movie (all of them are in it) is titled “Old Dogs,” which John loves very much since his “baby is in it.”
