2 hours ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

A month after revealing he is epileptic, Lil Wayne was hospitalized once again for suffering from a single seizure.

TMZ learned that the rapper was hospitalized on April 30 and brought to Cedars-Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles -- the same hospital where he spent a week back in March for his multiple seizures. Lil Wayne was released early on May 1.

During an interview with radio station Power 106 in late March, Wayne revealed his epileptic past. "The bad news is I'm an epileptic, I'm prone to seizures. Like, this isn't my first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh seizure. I've had a bunch of seizures, y'all just never hear about them," he said.

At the time, Weezy said that the seizures occur regularly. "They already know how to handle it. Certain times I don't even go to the hospital, but this time, it was real bad because, like I said, it was three in a row, »

3 hours ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

Lindsay Lohan has been busy prepping for rehab, but it remains to be seen if she actually makes it there. The troubled celebrity posted a picture of her apartment to Instagram to show the progress of her packing.

"90 days and 270 looks," she captions the image.

Lohan is slated to begin her court-ordered 90-day rehab sentence on May 2. She is supposed to go to Seafield Center in New York, but TMZ reports that their no-smoking policy might be too much for Lohan. Her lawyers allegedly tried to convince Seafield to make an exception for her and allow her to smoke cigarettes, but they refused. Now she is reportedly trying to see if she can go to rehab at Morningside Recovery in Newport Beach, Calif., but Santa Monica and Los Angeles City Attortneys haven't signed off on the last-minute switch.

When May 2 rolls around, Lohan's lawyer will have to provide proof of »

23 hours ago | E! Online | See recent E! Online news »

Jason Collins got some words of wisdom from Lance Bass before his big coming-out announcement yesterday. It turns out that the gay NBA star called the boybander for advice on how to handle the media after coming out of the closet. "I just got off the phone with him and he's been trying to plan this for a very long time, contemplating if he wanted to do this," Bass said on his SiriusXM radio show. "In fact, he said he was going to call me months ago, but he got too scared." Bass, who doesn't know Collins personally, said it was mutual friends who got them in contact with each other.

Natalie Portman and Michael Fassbender team up for 'MacBeth'

just now | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

"MacBeth" fans, rejoice, because two very exciting actors have been tapped to play MacBeth and Lady MacBeth in an upcoming adaptation of the classic Shakespeare place. It's being reported that Michael Fassbender and Natalie Portman will star in the Justin Kurzel-directed film.

Screen Daily revealed the news about Fassbender, while The Hollywood Reporter learned about Portman's involvement. THR reports that the Todd Louiso and Jacob Koskoff-penned script is "billed as an updated version of Shakespeare's tale of revenge and ambition, complete with the blood and thunder of the original tragedy."

This isn't the first time Portman and Fassbender were slated to work together. Fassbender was originally tapped to star opposite the "Thor: The Dark World" star in her new movie "Jane Got a Gun," but passed when director Lynne Ramsay walked away. Jude Law later replaced him.

Production is slated to begin on "MacBeth" later in 2013. No release »

20 minutes ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

After debuting at CinemaCon, an annual convention for movie theater owners, the latest trailer for "The Wolverine" has appeared online and features quite a bit of new footage. Included in the trailer was the first real look at the film's antagonist, the Silver Samurai, though it's very brief.

Hugh Jackman, the only thread connecting the entire "X-Men" universe, returns again as the movie's title character. The Silver Samurai will be portrayed by Will Yun Lee. The character is a Japanese mutant with the power to charge nearly any object with mutant energy. He is most-known for his katana blade, which can cut through anything except adamantium, the metal fused to Wolverine's bones.

Tyler, the Creator's Mountain Dew ad pulled after being called the 'most racist commercial in history'

34 minutes ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

Odd Future's Tyler, the Creator has earned a bunch of heat for the third installment in a series of Mountain Dew ads he directed featuring a character named Felicia the Goat. The third of three commercials was released a week ago and has earned PepsiCo so much backlash for being racist that the company has pulled the video across the board and issued an apology.

"We apologize for this video and take full responsibility. We have removed it from all Mountain Dew channels and Tyler is removing it from his channels as well," Mountain Dew says in a statement. The video in question can be watched here.

The three-part storyline in the ads starts when a goat voiced by Tyler who attacks a waitress after a restaurant runs out of Mountain Dew. In the second video, Felicia the Goat evades a police officer who pulls him over for a "Dew-u-i, »

Watch: The Biggest Mistake 'Iron Man 3' Made

41 minutes ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Comedian and actor Chris Gethard was cast in a small speaking role in "Iron Man 3," a movie sure to be such a huge blockbuster that even small residuals could provide all kinds of financial stability.

Then, he found out he got cut out of the movie. And made this video to show that he's totally, totally fine with it. (We're not sure we believe him.)

Hopefully, his autobiographical show "Stupid Life" will be picked up by IFC, so the Marvel people will see what a terrible mistake they've made. »

Look: Did Rihanna Just Kiss One Of Her Fans?

52 minutes ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

No wonder Chris Brown has been so dramatic lately.

His on-again-off-again relationship with Rihanna appears to be (once again) in the "off" position, as the superstar was seen exchanging kisses this weekend with Justin Laboy, a fan, at a club in New York.

Laboy shared pictures of the exchange on Twitter, going so far as to cheekily refer to Rihanna as his "wife."

E! Online speculates Rihanna and Brown may have finally called it quits based on the two's recent social media actions. Brown recently stopped following Rihanna on twitter, opting instead to follow his ex, Karrueche Tran.

Photos of the sequence:

Jake Johnson On Nick's 'New' Attitude

54 minutes ago | Entertainment Tonight | See recent Entertainment Tonight news »

While New Girl was originally positioned around the "adorkable" Zooey Deschanel, it quickly (and smartly) became an ensemble in season one, boasting a stand-out performance from eventual Emmy-nominee Max Greenfield. And while Greenfield has still been the Schmidt in season two, the writers and fans have rallied around a different actor since September: Jake Johnson.

Thanks, in part, to New Girl positioning the character as a love interest for their central character, Nick has evolved and unfolded with the most significance this season, but the real revelation has been the deep reservoir of comedic talent Johnson had to draw from. There's no doubt that Jake has always been a solid actor, but in creating alternate personas, seeking advice from wise Asians, struggling with anger issues, mourning his father, falling for a stolen trenchcoat,and swooping Jess off her feet, Johnson delivered the year's best comedic performance from a lead actor (something I believe The Emmys will concur »

Allison Williams Rocks Spandex, No Makeup

59 minutes ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Allison Williams showed off her fit figure on the set of "Girls" today (May 1).

The actress donned bright purple spandex and a clingy zip-up as she filmed scenes in Chinatown, NYC, flaunting her toned assets while "pretend" jogging.

Not to mention Williams seemingly went makeup-free, proving that she's equally as beautiful barefaced.

"I love trying new beauty and skincare products," Williams recently told Stylelist. "At work, I don't have a lot of control over what is applied to my face in the make-up chair. I am always interested to see what my make-up artist uses, but when I cleanse my skin at the start and end of every day, I want to be sure I'm using products that only contain skin-loving ingredients and do not contain anything that could be potentially harmful to my skin."

No wonder she looks flawless.

What Former Kardashian Nanny's Book Doesn't Say

1 hour ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Contrary to reports, anyone looking for dirt on the Kardashians won't find it in a new book penned by the family's former nanny.

Pam Behan took on the task of caring for Kourtney, then 12, Kim, 10, Khloe, 6, and Rob, 4, on Bruce and Kris Jenner's wedding day in 1991. The small-town Minnesota girl cared for the Kardashian kids for five years and was also a personal assistant to Kris -- but she surprisingly has nothing bad to say about them in her new memoir, Malibu Nanny: The Adventures Of The Former Kardashian Nanny.

This should come as good news to the family, who initially believed the book was going to be a brutal take down.

In an interview with The Huffington Post, Behan explained that she wanted to make sure she had the Kardashians' blessing and sent her manuscript to Kris to look over. Ultimately she heard back through her lawyer that »

'Ender's Game': First look at Ben Kingsley as Mazer Rackham

1 hour ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

"Ender's Game" is set to become the next novel-turned-blockbuster movie. The science fiction film centers around a boy named Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield), as he goes through military training, preparing for war against an alien race.

He is trained by none other than Sir Ben Kingsley, in the role of Mazer Rackham. Entertainment Weekly released the first image of the heavily-tattooed Rackham, and spoke with Kingsley about the role. "In the script, which I think is beautifully written, what come across is the authority and mystery," he says says of the character, "There's quite a lot said about him in the story before you see him -- by the recruits and by his fellow officers -- and that's useful as far as preparations."

"Ender's Game" serves as a reunion for Kingsley and Butterfield, who starred together in Martin Scorsese's "Hugo." Other notable stars in the cast include Harrison Ford, »

'A Boy and His Atom': Ibm releases a stop motion movie animated by atoms

1 hour ago | Pop2it | See recent Pop2it news »

Ibm has released the world's smallest movie -- literally. By moving atoms around and taking snapshots of them, a team of researchers at Ibm made a minute-long stop motion short film animated only by the movement of atoms.

It shows a boy playing with an atom and, appropriately, is titled "A Boy and His Atom." The project currently holds the Guinness World Record for Smallest Stop Motion film.

"The ability to move single atoms -- the smallest particles of any element in the universe -- is crucial to Ibm's research in the field of atomic memory," the description for the movie reads. "But even nanophysicists need to have a little fun. In that spirit, Ibm researchers used a scanning tunneling microscope to move thousands of carbon monoxide molecules (two atoms stacked on top of each other), all in pursuit of making a movie so small it can be seen only »

Baratunde Thurston Puts His Many Talents To Use In New Web Series

1 hour ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Baratunde knows a thing or two about being an entrepreneur. The author and comedian has a history of both successful and failed ventures throughout his career, and it's that exact experience that's helping him as he takes on his latest project.

The How To Be Black author has teamed up with AOL for a web series named "Funded," which will document the success stories of small businesses that were crowdfunded.

"For me, this show is a long time in waiting," Thurston told The Huffington Post. "When you look at what makes these campaigns work, like why do people -- especially strangers -- give money. It's the story. It's the pitch. I think being able to tell this new story of how people are getting their ideas made, that's the future."

Crowdfunding is not a new concept to Thurston, who said he used to pass around a hat for donations during his comedy shows. »

Back On

1 hour ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Nashville, Tenn. — The Civil Wars are returning with a new album.

The duo announced the news on their website Wednesday afternoon. They posted an image of the new self-titled album's cover along with a pair of handwritten notes from Joy Williams and John Paul White thanking fans for their patience.

The album will be released late summer by Columbia Records and is the follow-up to The Civil Wars' debut, "Barton Hollow." That album earned the duo two of their three Grammy Awards and a rapidly growing fan base. But their future together appeared in doubt when they canceled a European tour mid-trip, citing irreconcilable differences.

The album cover is a column of smoke from a fire.

White writes in his note to fans: "Patience is a virtue. Yours has been appreciated."
