It was no surprise to us that this weekend that Tina Fey picked up another Emmy as a guest actress on Saturday Night Life for her brilliant spoof of Sarah Palin last year.

Super smokeshow RyRy Reynolds is auctioning off tickets to the upcoming premieres of his two movies, X-Men Origins: Wolverine and The Proposal to raise money for the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinsons Research.

The Wolverine tickets, which can be bid on here, give you access to the April 28th premiere at Mann Chinese Theater in Hollywood and a seat “near Reynolds.”

We hope that means in his lap.

HoJo not included.

Michael J. Fox has been battling Parkinson’s Disease, a degenerative brain disease, since 1991, but he refuses to let it suffocate or marginalize him.

In an interview airing today, he told Oprah, “It’s like having a four-year-old climbing on you all the time and so whatever you’re trying to do, you’ve got this four-year-old and you’re… just trying to be patient and focus on what you need to do.”

Michael J. Fox is returning to TV for a one night special about happiness. 

Michael, who announced he suffers from Parkinson’s Disease in 1998, will be taking a “compelling look at the transformational power of optimism.”

In the special, Fox travels to Bhutan, a country whose king has said that “gross national happiness” matters more than gross national product, and looks into research that’s trying to pinpoint what makes people feel hopeful. He also presents himself as a case study as he continues to live with a slowly degrading disease.

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester, 22, and her boyfriend, Sebastian Stan, 25, are engaged…

According to Facebook.

We’re still deciding if that gives the rumor more or less validity.

A source close to the starlet says the couple, who met on the set of GG last year, made the announcement of their betrothal on their private Facebook pages.

They didn’t walk the red carpet together but Scarlett HoJo Johansson and her new husband (tear, whimper, sob) Ryan Reynolds both attended Wednesday night’s “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Cure Parkinsons” event, a benefit by the Michael J. Fox Foundation, at the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers in Manhattan.

Of course, HoJo looked luminous (she always does, that’s one of the reasons we hate so hard) and her heaving bosoms were overflowing with joy over their union. RyRy was as foxy and dashing as ever and both were brandishing their new wedding rings.

We like to think he's running towards us and far away from his succubus of a wife, Scarlett HoJo Johansson!

One of the hottest men in the world, Ryan Reynolds, ran the New York City Marathon today on behalf of the Michael J. Fox Foundation, as he announced he would last month. Despite insisting that he's no athlete, Ryan ran the 26.2 mile race in 3:50:22, a very respectable time.

Team Fox? How about Team FOXY! Hey, Ryan, we'll help you stretch and rub your aching muscles!

Ryan Reynolds is the perfect man. He’s smokin’ hot, he’s insanely funny, and he’s a profoundly eloquent writer. Add to the list of exacting qualifications: runner and anti-Parkinson’s Disease fundraiser.

Michael J. Fox is nearing a deal to join the cast of Rescue Me for a multi-episode arc. He’d play a love interest for Denis Leary’s on-screen ex, Janet played by Andrea Roth. An FX spokesperson confirms that Fox is considering the role on his friend Leary’s show, but "no deal is done yet."

This marks Fox’s first major TV gig since a 2006 guest stint on Boston Legal, where he played a CEO battling stage-four lung cancer.

F. Gary Gray's latest effort, Law Abiding Citizen, starring Jamie Foxx and Gerard Butler, is a knockout! Exhilirating, wry and breathcatchingly paced, it's a stellar accomplishment for everyone involved. Hell yeah you should see it!

Scott Hicks, the director of Shine, and Clive Owen teamed up for this gloriously beautiful if underwhelming project. It's not that it's bad, it's just not that memorable and with such supreme talent attached, I was hoping for and expecting a lot more.

Oh, Diablo Cody, why'd you have to do it? I love you so long...and then you made this. Megan Fox does what she always does, she looks hot. At least there's that. Sophmoric, unfunny and obsessively idiosyncratic, it's a painful movie going experience.

Chocolate and peanut butter. Spaghetti and meatballs. Bobcat Goldthwait and profanity. Two great tastes that taste great together. Gone is the Bobcat of the Police Academy movies and in his stead is a fantastic writer-director who's able to orchestrate the most brilliantly, hilarious vulgarity imaginable. World's Greatest Dad is a fantastic dark comedy (very dark) that features Robin Williams' best performance since Good Will Hunting. See it!
