Tyson Beckford’s Sex Tape: Does It Co-Star His Motorcycle Too?

14 May 2012 7:09 AM, PDT | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »

Music Videos - Free Music Videos

There are many reasons one might be hypothetically interested in maybe possibly getting one’s hands on the rumored Tyson Beckford sex tape that is being shopped around, per TMZ. Not only does this alleged tape feature 45 minutes of the model pleasuring himself during a video chat with an unidentified woman, according to “sources,” it also features the chatty 41-year-old talking about how much he hates being confused with fellow model Tyrese Gibson. Which cracks us up, but also, even though they don’t look or act alike at all, we have to admit their similar first names trip us up once in a while. And another reason we’re, um, intrigued: the hints Beckford gave VH1 News about his sex life with girlfriend and Victoria’s Secret model Shanina Shaik in the interview above last fall.

Does this motorcycle also guest-star in the video? »

'Fast and Furious 6' Plot Hints Revealed as Luke Evans Confirmed as Villain

9 May 2012 11:42 AM, PDT | Rope of Silicon | See recent Rope Of Silicon news »

Luke Evans has been featured in such recent films as Immortals, The Raven and The Three Musketeers, and this December he'll be playing Bard the Bowman in Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Adding to the filmography he will be going for even wider appeal as previous rumors that had him playing the villain in the upcoming The Fast and the Furious 6 have now been confirmed as production prepares to get underway shortly for a May 24, 2013 release. Evans is filling in the role originally offered to Jason Statham as the leader of crew of thieves targeting the same heist job eyed by Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) and their gang as the film makes way for Europe with Germany already mentioned as one of the film's possible locales. The only confirmed member of Fast Five returning other than Diesel and Walker is Dwayne Johnson »

Sofia Vergara Reportedly Splits With Boyfriend Nick Loeb

9 May 2012 7:48 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

"Modern Family" star Sofia Vergara is reportedly single again after calling it quits with boyfriend Nick Loeb, reports the New York Post.

Sources tell the paper the 39-year-old actress was the one who decided to end their two-year relationship following a series of arguments over the weekend.

The Colombian actress attended Monday night's Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute Gala alone, and sources told the Post she confided in a few friends that she and Loeb had split.

"They have been fighting a lot recently and have been on the brink of splitting many times. It is not yet clear if they are over for good, but they are done as a couple for now," the insider explained.

If the couple did break up, Vergara certainly didn't let it stop her from shining at the Met Gala in a stunning Marchesa dress, and partying late into the night at »

What we know about The Fast And The Furious 6

2 May 2012 2:35 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »

Want to know more about the current casting rumours whirling around Fast 6? Then you’re about to click on the right post…

Flushed with the unexpectedly huge success of Fast Five (Or Fast & Furious 5, or whatever it’s called in your particular canton), director Justin Lin’s currently compiling his cast for a sequel. It’s all but certain that Dwayne Johnson, Paul Walker and Vin Diesel will reprise their leading roles as the car-crazy cops and robbers of last year’s movie.

Gina Carano’s set to star alongside Johnson as a law-enforcing side-kick, and Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson are returning once again, too (the former’s reappearance certainly makes sense, given the post revelation that – gasp – her character didn’t die at all in the fourth film).

Earlier this week, rumours began to surface that popstress Rihanna, who’d just blown up sea-faring aliens real good in Peter Berg’s Battleship, »

1 May 2012 2:32 PM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

Actress Michelle Rodriguez has an action-packed summer ahead of her, signing deals to return in the sequels The Fast and the Furious 6 and Machete Kills.

The actress made a cameo appearance as Letty during the end-credit scene in Fast Five, and she returns as a main cast member in this new installment. Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, and Dwayne Johnson are also confirmed for this sequel. We also reported last week that Haywire star Gina Carano is in talks to join the cast.

She will also reprise her role as Luz from 2010's Machete in director Robert Rodriguez's sequel. Danny Trejo is back as the title character, and we reported last week that Mel Gibson is in talks to portray the villain.

Michelle Rodriguez will first start shooting Machete Kills later this month in Austin, Texas, and will move right to The Fast and the Furious 6, which begins production in Europe next month. »

Tyrese Gibson Portraying Singer Teddy Pendergrass In Upcoming Biopic

30 April 2012 1:06 PM, PDT | The Film Stage | See recent The Film Stage news »

After an appearance at this year’s CinemaCon in Las Vegas, actor Tyrese Gibson announced that he would be starring in an upcoming biopic, with LatinoReview reporting that the model-turned-actor has been set to play the famous R&B singer Teddy Pendergrass.

An American R&B and singer/songwriter who rose to fame in the 1970′s, he was the lead singer of Harold Melvin & the Blues Notes, while later going on to become a well known solo artist. In 1982, after a car accident, the singer was left paralyzed from the waist down. He started the Teddy Pendergrass Alliance to help those with spinal cord injuries upon his death in 2010.

Although Gibson is no stranger to singing, this is the first time he will be doing so in a feature film. I’m not too familiar with his musical career, but I have seen some of his acting credits — which, I have to be honest, »

Shooting fantasy fight scene with @mradamscott. twitpic.com/9fnums

Ben Stiller (@RedHourBen) April 30, 2012

Before you put yourself on red alert and begin tweeting your friends, Ben Stiller and Adam Scott aren't actually fighting. The duo is filming a fight scene for their dramady, "The Secret Life of Walter Mitty."

The adventure film follows Mitty (Stiller), a lonely magazine photo manager who lives life through daydreams while he looks through other people's pictures. But when a negative goes missing, he leaves his fantasy world and heads off on his own journey. The film also stars Sean Penn, Kristen Wiig and rising comedian Patton Oswalt. While details of Scott's role are unreleased, we expect lots of snarky lines from the "Parks and Recreation" actor.

Daredevil Reboot Gets Writer David James Kelly

28 April 2012 10:32 AM, PDT | MovieWeb | See recent MovieWeb news »

As Marvel's The Avengers impresses overseas, Marvel's stable of superhero characters continues to dominate the news. We know that 20th Century Fox is rebooting Daredevil with director David Slade. Now they've hired David James Kelly (who has no substantial film credits to his name) to pen the screenplay for this latest Marvel outing.

The storyline of this new Daredevil incarnation is rumored to be based on Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli's comic book story arc Born Again, which finds the Kingpin uncovering blind lawyer Matt Murdoch's red-suited alter ego, and using that information to destroy him.

There is no set production start date at this time. It's likely that Daredevil won't hit theater screens until at least 2015, with 20th Century Fox already moving on more X-Men movies and a reboot of Fantastic Four.

No casting has been mentioned as of yet, either. So that begs the question: Who should play Daredevil? »

Things You Already Know: Shia Labeouf Not Coming Back For 4th 'Transformers' Film

26 April 2012 8:35 AM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »

Paramount president Adam Goodman: the interview that keeps on giving. The Hollywood Reporter spoke to the Paramount chief in the May 4th issue of their magazine, and the good man revealed something you're likely already aware of: Shia Labeouf is not coming back to Micheal Bay's "Transformers" franchise and whatever "Transformers 4" will turn into (a sorta-reboot, a sequel, prequel, Tyrese franchise, whatever).

Of course, Shia already said this himself. "I just don't think right now there's anywhere to take Sam," he told MTV News last year. "And it's not that I don't enjoy working with Michael. I love working with Michael. I would do any movie Michael wants to do. I just don't think there's anywhere to take it with Sam."

Labeouf also hinted at wanting to take on less of the tentpoles his handlers and agents have wanted him to do and instead do a type of »

Who else would you cast in 'The Fast and the Furious 6'?

24 April 2012 2:23 PM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

If franchises were baseball teams, then The Fast and the Furious would be the Oakland Athletics. As recounted in last year’s Moneyball, the A’s could never afford to pay superstar salaries. So, using a system known as sabermetrics, they put together a ragtag band of players: aging players who could make base hits, rookies who could read pitches, journeyman has-beens with the uncanny ability to just keep getting on base. None of these dudes was a star. But together, they made a franchise.

I submit to you that last year’s Fast Five is a model for Hollywood sabermetrics. »
