It looks like her pointguard boyfriend Dwyane Wade isn’t Gabrielle Union’s favorite kind of Miami Heat! The actress spent her Memorial Day under the sizzling sun on Miami Beach, enjoying herself in a tiny white bikini and rip-roarin’ cowboy hat. She was joined in the sand by fellow basketball girlfriend Savannah Brinson, who’s engaged to Heat forward LeBron James. The two took a dip in the ocean before taking it easy in a shady lounge chair.

Lakers fans ding Kobe Bryant with Gotye parody

25 May 2012 7:25 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

There was no joy in Los Angeles on Monday night, after mighty Kobe and the Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs by Oklahoma City, and two creative fans aimed their frustration at the team’s polarizing star. Parodying Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know,” the duo of Dan Rib and Ken Belcher knocked Kobe Bryant for not being “The Kobe That We Used to Know.”

Points to any songwriter who can squeeze in references to the triangle offense, but the song’s thrust that Bryant is a ball hog — he scored 42 points in Game 5 but dished out zero assists — is hardly news. »

Image of the Day: Which Teen Movie Franchise is LeBron James Reading Before Playoff Games?

22 May 2012 1:35 PM, PDT | Movies.com | See recent Movies.com news »

Every professional athlete has their routine before a big game. Some like to listen to hard rock or hip-hop to get them in the mood to go to war on the playing field (or court), while others might want to meditate in order to completely clear their mind so its ready to help them succeed come game time. And then you have guys like LeBron James -- arguably the NBA's best basketball player -- who likes to prepare for a huge playoff game by ... reading The Hunger Games. Yup, this is a shot of James prior to Game 4 of the Miami Heat/Indiana Pacers game, where he was back in the locker room, quite obviously engrossed in Suzanne Collins' world. It may not be fair to say he's "obsessed" with The Hunger Games ... yet, but for someone like him to read something...

Dark Knight Rises Batmania: Near Naked Woman in Batmobile (Video)

18 May 2012 11:54 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »

Did I say the marketing for The Dark Knight Rises has gone too far? I’m sorry. I take it all back.

The video of a cos-play centerfold model being accosted by a traffic cop for driving the Batmobile proves that it’s not only gone too far, it’s gone right off the rails.

The tipping point is that this Batman-supermodel-traffic stop wasn’t The Dark Knight Rises marketing at all – it was an entirely different party, taking advantage of the media tsunami Christopher Nolan’s Batman closer inspired.

This has become a vicious cycle, people! I can’t tell who is taking advantage of whom anymore.

I don’t even think the model’s being taken advantage of. This “traffic stop” is about as real as Gary Busey’s sobriety. I present you Exhibit A to back up my defense:

Are you as suspicious as I am? It »

Survivor One World Winner: Crowned!

13 May 2012 9:56 PM, PDT | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »

Throughout the Survivor finale, the women kept saying to each other “may the best woman win."  Thankfully, she did.

Kim put a bow on the neat little package that was her game this season. She dominated from start to finish and even if you do not believe she has earned her place among the Survivor greats, the way she played this season certainly does. Her win ranks alongside Boston Rob (Survivor: Redemption Island), Brian Heidik (Survivor: Thailand) and Tom Westman (Survivor: Palau).

Consider that throughout the entire game, she was never seriously targeted to be voted out. None of the other people playing with her recognized how much of a threat she was to not only keep advancing, but win the game. She played both sides of two different alliances at two different points in the game and came out of both not only on the winning side, but without a scratch on her. »

Serena Williams Tackles Personal Health Problem With Edible Solution

30 April 2012 2:31 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Serena Williams has had her share of health issues. Last summer Williams returned to tennis after battling a year-long series of problems, including cuts on her feet from glass at a restaurant and blood clots in her lungs. Earlier this year she cast doubt on the success of her 2012 season after spraining her ankle during the Australian Open in Brisbane. And last week she opened up to the Huffington Post about another health concern she's been trying to overcome -- insomnia.

"A lot of people underrate sleep. You need a certain amount of sleep to rejuvenate your body, to rejuvenate the cells and to perform, whether you're going to school or whether you're playing a professional sport," she said. "I'm not a sleeper. I'm kind of like my dad, never slept much. I can really go off of five hours of sleep, but obviously that's not healthy."

Williams is among some 50 to 70 million U. »

Update: Zimmerman has been charged with second-degree murder in the case. The charge carries a maximum sentence of life in prison.

George Zimmerman will face charges in the shooting death of 17-year-old Trayvon Martin, this according to a senior official close to the investigation.

The Washington Post is reporting that Zimmerman could be charged as soon as Wednesday (April 11) afternoon. A press conference is set for 6 p.m. Et. It is unclear what charges Zimmerman will face.

An unarmed Martin was shot and killed in Sanford, Fla., on Feb. 26 by Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer. Zimmerman claims he was acting in self-defense. The Sanford police did not charge Zimmerman with a crime, saying he was within the rights of the state's "stand your ground" law.

Since the shooting, there have been countless protests and demonstrations on behalf of Martin. LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, Congressman Bobby Rush, P. Diddy and many »

Liam Neeson May Star In Very Typical Liam Neeson Movie

4 April 2012 4:50 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Liam Neeson has a very particular set of skills, as evidenced by his recent turns in "Taken," "Unknown," and even "The Grey" (the latter of which needed way more wolf boxing). Now, in Lebron James-like fashion, he's taking his talents to 30,000 feet (marketers, feel free to stick that on the poster): Variety reports that Neeson is negotiating to star in "Non-Stop," a "contained thriller" about an air marshall dealing with trouble during a flight.

Per THR, the flight in question will be of the domestic variety, but Variety quotes sources as saying "Non-Stop" takes place during an international trip. Whichever it is, expect the sequel to be the opposite.

Neeson's character is described as a worn-out, which might be the case for the star as well. He just starred in "Wrath of the Titans," makes appearances in "Battleship" and "The Dark Knight Rises" this summer, and will lead "Taken 2" in the fall. »

Spike Lee, Trayvon Martin Controversy: Director Retweets Wrong Address Of Man Accused Of Killing Teen (Update)

28 March 2012 12:31 PM, PDT | Moviefone | See recent Moviefone news »

An elderly Florida couple were reportedly forced to flee their home after director Spike Lee mistakenly tweeted their address. According to THR, Lee thought he was sharing the whereabouts of George Zimmerman, the Florida man who shot and killed unarmed teenager Trayvon Martin. Instead, he sent out the address of a William George Zimmerman, who is no relation. According to The Smoking Gun, Elaine McCain and her husband -- parents of William George Zimmerman -- have been living in fear since Lee tweeted their address and “took flight last Friday." As the McCain told Tsg, “Maybe we should get a lawyer and send a cease and desist letter to Spike Lee.” Lee's retweet originally came from Marcus Davonne Higgins, who also posted it to his Facebook wall with the message: “Feel free to reach out & touch him.” The address mix-up was apparently Higgins's, who also sent the tweet to 50 Cent, »
