X17 Xclusive - Tiger Woods In Rehab, Says Source

Los Angeles, California (X17online) - A source tells X17online exclusively that Tiger Woods has entered a private, upscale rehabilitation facility in Arizona. While recent reports claim Tiger was spotted in Palm Beach with alleged mistress Rachel Uchitel, but so far no pictures have surfaced nor has anyone gone on the record saying they saw the two together. The source tells X17online: "He has been there for a few days since his handlers forced him to enter the program. They feel that if he blames his cheating on addiction, the public will forgive him." Meanwhile, a stint in rehab for Tiger seems like the next logical step. After singer Eric Benet was caught in a much-publicized cheating scandal during his relationship with Halle Berry, he entered rehab for sexual addiction. More recently, Californication star David Duchovny did the same in an effort to redeem his reputation and his marriage with Tea Leoni.

In all the excitement over all the other year- and decade-end lists, we almost overlooked Mr. Skin's ever-popular ranking of the best nude scenes bestowed upon us in 2009.
Previous winners have included Salma Hayek in 2006 ("Ask the Dust"), Marisa Tomei in 2007 ("Before the Devil Knows You're Dead") and Mischa Barton ("Closing the Ring") and Lizzy Caplan ("True Blood") in 2008 for their film and television work, respectively.
This year, the list has been combined once again and shortened to a mere Top 10. At the top of list, Susan Sarandon's daughter Eva Amurri for her turn as a college student/stripper on Showtime's "Californication," beating out Jessica Biel's feature film turn in "Powder Blue."
Two other TV performances were noted, Anna Paquin for HBO's "True Blood" (her second time to appear on the list) as well as Alanna Ubach on HBO's "Hung."

Susan Sarandon has revealed that she stays in shape by taking pole dancing lessons with her actress daughter. Eva Amurri, 24, took the erotic dance lessons to prepare for her role on hit Us TV show Californication. She invited her 63-year-old mother to join her workouts, with Sarandon admitting that she jumped at the chance to learn the tricks of pole dancing, as it helps keep her feeling young, Contactmusic reports. She explained: 'My kids are so funny they bring me into the present. I go to concerts and learned how to pole dance with my daughter when she was doing Californication. It's very difficult and you have to be in very good shape. It's hard!'

The actors, who met on the set of Bull Durham, have ended a partnership that seemed one of Hollywood's most enduring
The actors Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins have split up, it was revealed yesterday. Publicist Teal Cannady said in a statement that the two actors separated over the summer after 23 years together.
Sarandon, 63, and Robbins, 51, met in 1988 while shooting the film Bull Durham. Another collaboration, Dead Man Walking (1996), won Sarandon an Oscar for best actress, and Robbins a best director nomination.
The couple have two sons - Jack Henry, 20, and Miles Guthrie, 17. Susan also has a daughter, Californication star Eva Amurri, from a previous relationship.
Sarandon's most recent role was in Peter Jackson's adaptation of the bestselling novel The Lovely Bones, which enjoyed its royal premiere last month and opens nationwide in the new year. Robbins last appeared in 2008's City of Ember.

Susan Sarandon is still feeling sexy at the age of 63 - after taking a pole dancing lesson with her actress daughter Eva Amurri.
Amurri, Sarandon's 24-year-old daughter with Italian director Franco Amurri, took the saucy dance lesson for her steamy role on hit U.S. TV show Californication.
The young star invited her mother to join in the fun - and Sarandon admits she jumped at the chance to learn how to work the pole because it helps to keep her feeling young.
She explains, "My kids are so funny they bring me into the present. I go to concerts and I went and I learned how to pole dance with my daughter when she was doing Californication. It's very difficult and you have to be in very good shape. It's hard!"

Yesterday, The Live Feed reported that Starz is ordering a second season of its new original series Spartacus: Blood and Sand before even one episode of the show has aired. The show is a look at the world of gladiators in ancient Rome, said to be in the graphic style of 300. It stars Andy Whitfield, Lucy Lawless, John Hannah, and Peter Mensah, and counts Sam Raimi among its producers.
Now Deadline reports that Starz has recruited Chris Albrecht to be its new president and CEO. Albrecht used to be the chairman and CEO of HBO until he resigned in 2007 at the request of the company due to an assault charge. It is under Albrecht’s guide that HBO staked its substantial claim in original programming with such acclaimed series as The Sopranos, Sex and the City, Six Feet Under, Deadwood, Curb Your Enthusiasm and The Wire.

Responding to recent rumors, guitarist John Frusciante confirmed on his MySpace page on Wednesday that he has left the Red Hot Chili Peppers for the second time, and actually did so long ago.
"When I quit the band, over a year ago, we were on an indefinite hiatus," wrote Frusciante, who was a member of the band from 1988 until 1992, rejoining in 1997 following treatment for drug addiction. "There was no drama or anger involved, and the other guys were very understanding. They are supportive of my doing whatever makes me happy, and that goes both ways."
Frusciante, who has released 10 solo albums over the past 15 years — the most recent one, The Empyrean, in January of this year — said that his departure came as a result of oft-cited "musical differences" with his bandmates.

2009's Top Nude Scenes, Jessica Biel Falls Short

We.re a legitimate movie blog so we don.t write about celebrity nudity (much), we just secretly enjoy it. For all your celebrity nudity needs your best bet is probably the infamous Mr. Skin who has spent all of his life in a basement fast forwarding through DVDs looking for nipples. But it.s the end of the year and with everyone announcing awards Skin has to take his turn. He.s announced the top ten nude scenes in entertainment for 2009, and surprisingly, not all of them are in film.
With edgy, pay-cable like HBO and Showtime pushing the envelope, they.ve taken the crown as the best place to see famous and semi-famous women naked. The top nude scene of 2009 happened on the David Duchovny show Californication and starred someone named Eva Amuri. If you watch it, then maybe you know who the hell Skin.s talking about.

Is Tiger Woods a Sex Addict?

Let's see if Tiger passes the test.
Dr. Cara Gardenswartz: Though the Dsm-iv-tr (the "Bible" of mental disorders for the American Psychiatric Association and the American Psychological Association) does not formally recognize sexual addiction as a mental illness, most psychologists and trained therapists believe that sexual addiction is real, just as they consider gambling addiction to be real. It is speculated that in the latest version (currently in progress) of the Dsm (Dsm-v), sexual addiction will be included as a mental illness. In the 1980s, the 12-step movement popularized the notion that behaviors could be as addictive as substances such as cocaine or alcohol. They founded 12-step programs for compulsive shoppers, gamblers, "sexaholics," and so on.
Sexual addiction is a preoccupation with sexual behavior (which can include masturbation, prostitution, anonymous sex, casual sex, going to strip clubs, bathhouses, etc.). Most often it involves many sexual encounters and reckless behavior. Sex

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association has finally come up with the full nominees for the 2010 Golden Globe Awards, and among those unraveled as contenders for the Globes was Sandra Bullock. In the wee hours of Tuesday, December 15, the actress who had been nominated for the awards two times before was revealed to have got two nods.
The 45-year-old was given a Best Actress in a Drama nomination for her performance in "The Blind Side". In addition to that, the star of "Crash" also collected Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical nod for portraying an uptight boss in "The Proposal". She has been nominated for the latter nomination twice before for "Miss Congeniality" and for "While You Were Sleeping".
While Bullock stood out in the performers category, "Up in the Air" dominated the nominations in the movie category with six nominations including for Best Motion Picture. It overshadowed "Nine", which collected five,

"Californication" might have been overlooked in the Golden Globes' best comedy category, but the Showtime series can take comfort in another honor at least as prestigious.
Celebrity nudie aggregator Mr. Skin has put David Duchovny's co-star Eva Amurri at the top of its annual list of best celebrity nude scenes.
The actress -- the daughter of Susan Sarandon -- earned the prize by stripping in an episode of the series that aired earlier this fall. (Nfsw video is

Golden Globe Nominations Announced, Up In The Air Leads with Six Noms

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (Hfpa) announced their nominees for the 67th Annual Golden Globes and before I comment on the nominees, I first have to explain something about the Globes. The Globes are not really an indiciator of the Oscars. Critics lists and awards from various guilds are far better predictors because the Globes are ultimately bought and paid for by the studios. The Oscars are as well to some extent, but the Globes are just ridiculous. However, it doesn’t mean they’re not a lot of fun and that they’ll take chances Oscar won’t.
But the big movie nominee was a safe choice with Jason Reitman’s Up in the Air grabbing six nods followed by Rob Marshall’s Nine, which racked up five. But looking through the nominees, there are some absolutely bizarre inclusions: Julia Roberts for Duplicity (this one makes sense when you

2010 Golden Globe Nominations Announced

The folks over at Cinematical were good enough to be up early this December morning to update folks in real-time with the 67th Annual Golden Globe nominations. Things are officially gearing up to the Awards season early next year, all leading up to the “big ones” – the Oscars. The Golden Globes are arguably the second-biggest awards out there, and we have this year’s nominations right here.
I’d say for the most part that the nominations are quite predictable. Not that that’s a bad thing – if it’s clear to all what the best movies, performances, scores etc are, then it should result in them getting nominated (that’s the way it Should work, anyway – hey-oh! ). Before I get to some of my thoughts on who’s been nominated, check out the nominations list yourself, again thanks to Cinematical (as well as GoldenGlobes.org):

The nominations are in for the 67th Annual Golden Globe Awards and the leader at the moment is Up In the Air with six nominations, followed by Nine with five and Inglourious Basterds and Avatar both earning four nominations each. Perhaps the biggest surprise for me personally is the absence of In the Loop in the Best Picture (Comedy/Musical) category as well as Peter Capaldi not getting a Best Actor (Comedy/Musical) nomination. It's a great film and this was really it's only chance and it has come up empty.
As far as nominated surprises go, Tobey Maguire getting a Best Actor (Drama) nom for Brothers is surprising, but at the same time it is well-deserved (even if I think Jake Gyllenhaal had the best performance in that flick). Coen brothers fans will be happy to see Michael Stuhlbarg getting a nomination for A Serious Man
