Kanye West's SNL Rant: "I Ain't Doing No Motherf---ing Skits"
39 minutes ago | TVGuide - Breaking News | See recent TVGuide - Breaking News news »
Saturday Night Live closes out its 38th season this weekend, with host Ben Affleck and musical guest Kanye West. And one thing is clear: Don't expect West to demonstrate that he has any sense of humor whatsoever.
West went on a rant about the nature of celebrity at the Adult Swim upfront this week and slammed SNL in the process, according to Complex.

Kanye West Sports Forehead Band-Aid Alongside Ben Affleck in New Saturday Night Live Promo
19 hours ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »
Kanye West is poking fun at his recent run-in with a street sign. In a new promo for this weekend's Saturday Night Live, the rapper sports a Band-Aid on his forehead covering up the tiny injury he sustained last Friday while out with Kim Kardashian. West, who's the musical guest on tomorrow's episode, takes the bandage off for the rest of the promo skits though. Alongside host Ben Affleck, West and SNL castmember Fred Armisen get goofy while pretending to be "three best friends back at it" on the show. Armisen also jokes, "Look at us, three award winners just hanging out," before getting called out by the Oscar and Grammy winners. Check out the funny clips for »

Here’s what we know about tweaky club kid Stefon Zolesky, by far Bill Hader’s most popular SNL character: He used to write for Smash. His dad is David Bowie. His brother is Ben Affleck (a.k.a. “David”). He lives in a trash can near the Radio Shack on 23rd St. and 7th Ave. He’s in love with Seth Meyers. And he’s got an encyclopedic knowledge of New York’s hottest clubs, from Scampi (“illegally parked behind the Statue of Liberty”) to Spicy (“the creation of club owner/rabbi Jew Diamond Phillips”) to Selfieee!

Kanye West has a bad attitude in 'Saturday Night Live' season finale promos
22 hours ago | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
Ugh, Kanye West, enough already. The rapper is slated to appear in the May 18 season finale of "Saturday Night Live," and he's made such a point of saying he's only there to perform that it's become entirely off-putting.
It's pretty cool to be able to say you're performing on an episode of "SNL," let alone the last episode of its season. Even Justin Bieber was a good sport about appearing after having been mocked time and again on the show, but no, not Kanye. In the promo for the episode, West stands next to Ben Affleck and Fred Armisen and makes his disinterest in the promo sketches clear by barely changing his facial expression and deadpanning his lines without any hint of humor.
This comes after West went on a rant at Adult Swim's Upfronts about how he doesn't plan to "humanize" himself during Saturday's "SNL" episode. Needless to say, »

Jennifer Garner: 'Ben Affleck and I make tough choices about careers'
17 May 2013 7:29 AM, PDT | Digital Spy | See recent Digital Spy - Movie News news »
Jennifer Garner has admitted that she and husband Ben Affleck face "tough choices" about balancing their careers and family responsibilities.
The Odd Life of Timothy Green actress explained to Parade that she and Affleck often pass on promising projects in order to make sure that one parent is always home with their three kids.
"Juggling is the key. Some days I do it well and some days less so," Garner revealed to the magazine.
Garner continued: "When one of us is working, the other can be home with the kids. We also have a wonderful nanny, and both of our mums pitch in.
"I can't do movie after movie and have a husband that works as much as mine does. There are tough choices to make. But I'm lucky that I have the options."
Affleck joked in April that he would be "Mr Mum" for a stretch this spring in »

Kanye West is super psyched to be on 'SNL' this week -- Video
17 May 2013 6:58 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Kanye West, certified Good Sport, has a notoriously robust sense of humor — so it’s no surprise to see how giddily excited he is about his upcoming stint on Saturday Night Live. (He’s the season finale’s musical guest; Ben Affleck is its host.) Just look at the goofy grin on ‘Ye’s face, or his amiable, up-for-anything body language!
I can’t decide if Kanye’s just being too-cool, or if he’s channeling the character of a hostage opposite Affleck’s Argo hero… or if he’s still just feeling what he shouted to an upfronts audience the other night: “Hell nah, »

Kanye West and Ben Affleck Don’t Exactly Look Pumped for SNL
16 May 2013 11:15 PM, PDT | Vulture | See recent Vulture news »
Yes, Kanye "Fuck SNL and the Whole Cast" West is really returning to Saturday Night Live: a rumor turned reality with this promo of 'Ye alongside Fred Armisen and season finale host Ben Affleck. Kanye takes deadpan to a new level, and he's also wearing a Band-Aid after smacking his head on a sign the other day. Affleck attempts to look as unimpressed as Kanye, but you can tell he really wants to know if the new album will be all screamo. »

Clooney and Bullock Go Flying in Cuaron's Latest: Watch Trailer
16 May 2013 5:28 PM, PDT | Alt Film Guide | See recent Alt Film Guide news »
Gravity trailer goes ‘bong!’ as George Clooney and Sandra Bullock go flying George Clooney and Sandra Bullock become the victims of an unfortunate incident while watching the sun rise. Skin cancer? Nope. Do they get mugged? Nope. What happens then? As you can see in the Gravity trailer below, following a loud Bong, Bam, Boom! Clooney and Bullock quite literally go flying. Something — was it a meteorite? Intergalactic debris? — has collided against their spacecraft (or space shuttle or whatever). See, they’re watching the sun "rise" from way up there. Check out the Gravity trailer below. (Photo: George Clooney in Gravity movie.) Gravity trailer: 2001: A Space Odyssey Meets Lost in Space Meets Apollo 13? The Gravity trailer, or rather, teaser, provides quite bit of action with minimal dialogue. It’s impossible to tell what kind of relationship (veteran astronaut) George Clooney and (medical engineer and tyro astronaut) Sandra Bullock share. »

Ben Affleck may have gotten a lot of attention when he took home the best picture Oscar for Argo this year, but he is hardly the first actor who has had behind-the-camera aspirations. Actors and actresses have been finding success in the director's chair for decades, and celebrities like Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Gosling are carrying on the tradition with their own interests in making films.

Scarlett Johansson Tackles Capote for Directorial Debut
16 May 2013 | Comingsoon.net | See recent Comingsoon.net news »
It's become fairly common for actors to make the transition into directing, especially in recent years with the likes of Ben Affleck and Angelina Jolie finding strong second careers behind the camera. It probably was felt by anyone who has met her, that actress Scarlett Johansson would probably direct something eventually since she has such a strong and opinionated personality which has been present since she started acting as a teenager. Maybe appearing in Joseph Gordon-Levitt's directorial debut Don Jon gave her the kick in the pants she needed since word's coming out of Cannes (aka Announcement Central) that Johansson will direct a movie based on Truman Capote's first novel Summer Crossing . Apparently, Capote wrote the story about a 17-year-old debutante who gets into a »
Joel Edgerton Heads To ‘Black Mass’ & Joins Michelle Williams On ‘The Double Hour’
16 May 2013 1:55 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
One of my favourite under-appreciated actors has landed roles in two very exciting projects.
Joel Edgerton will star alongside Johnny Depp in Barry Levinson’s biopic of notorious Boston crime figure Whitey Bulger, the brother of a state senator who went down altogether different route than his sibling. Depp will portray the career criminal, who ultimately turned ‘rat’ for the FBI. Edgerton takes the role of the FBI agent John Connolly, a childhood friend of Bulger. Both the characters of ‘Fergie’, (played by the late Pete Postlethwaite) in Ben Affleck’s The Town and Jack Nicholson’s Frank Costello in Scorecese’s The Departed are based on the mobster.
The Aussie actor will also join the gorgeous Michelle Williams on a remake of Giuseppe Capotondi’s 2009 acclaimed Italian thriller, The Double Hour. The original followed a chambermaid and an ex-cop whom meet at a speed dating event and develop a romantic relationship. »

Bill Hader might be on his way out at "Saturday Night Live," but he's not quite done wisecracking just yet. Hader, who announced earlier this week that he's leaving the late-night comedy institution after its current season, appears in a series of promos for this week's season finale with the episode's host, Ben Affleck, to drum up a few laughs in the name of publicity.
