Penn Badgley and Zoe Kravitz Take Their Relationship Public With a Kiss

5 October 2011 10:05 AM, PDT | Popsugar.com | See recent Popsugar news »

Penn Badgley and Zoe Kravitz walked hand in hand through the streets of SoHo yesterday. The duo shared a sweet kiss before parting ways, with the Pda confirming Penn and Zoe's relationship after months of rumors. They apparently shared dinner at a NYC restaurant in July and also attended two movie premieres over the Summer. Zoe most recently dated Michael Fassbender and the couple were spotted together just last month at Tiff, though it appears their romance is over for now - Michael's even in NYC too at the moment doing press for his A Dangerous Method. Penn, meanwhile, has apparently been single since his breakup from girlfriend and Gossip Girl costar Blake Lively last year. Blake's been linked to a few hot Hollywood guys since their split and she's moved on yet again since it was confirmed this week that her Summer fling with Leonardo DiCaprio ended. View Slideshow »

Shirtless Prince Harry Parties With Friends and a Hot Bikini-Clad Girl in Majorca!

4 August 2011 10:48 AM, PDT | Popsugar.com | See recent Popsugar news »

Prince Harry is living the good life on vacation with friends, including a very sexy bikini-clad mystery woman, in Majorca this week. Harry carried a big drink and was delivered beers by his two-piece-sporting gal pal on Tuesday. Harry's rumored Summer fling Florence Brudenell-Bruce is not along for the trip, though the prince is never lacking for female company. Harry was coming straight from Zara Phillips's royal wedding last weekend, where he joined his brother, Prince William, and sister-in-law, Kate Middleton, to celebrate their cousin's big day. Prince Harry has had a Summer filled with work and royal duties, though he always seems to find time to let loose with his buddies as well. Still, the hot young prince was spotted responsibly sipping on water as the crew set off on a motor-boating adventure. View Slideshow › »

Movie Review - Wake Wood (2011)

29 March 2011 3:37 PM, PDT | Flickeringmyth | See recent Flickeringmyth news »

Wake Wood, 2011.

Directed by David Keating.

Starring Aidan Gillen, Eva Birthistle, Timothy Spall, Amelia Crowley, Brian Gleeson, Dan Gordon, Ruth McCabe and Ella Connolly.

Synopsis:

A married couple move to the Irish village of Wake Wood after the death of their daughter, where they discover an ancient ritual that can reunite them with their loved one for three days, but when the rules are broken a terrible price must be paid.
