Queen Latifah

What we wouldn't give to have been inside the Queen's head at the time this photo was taken.

Paris Hilton and Queen Latifah were snapped on their way into the Fragrance Foundation's FiFi Awards, held at the Downtown Armory in New York City last night.

We love that Paris is attempting (and failing) a sexy-face while Queen is looking utterly confused/determined to smile through the awkwardness.

Who’s hungry for a big ol’plate of awesome?

At yesterday’s press junket for 17 Again, Adam Shankman, who produced the film, announced the FunnyorDie clip he directed last week, yes, the one that features oodles of shirtless Zac-y Pooh, is set to premiere on the website Wednesday and will be shown before 17 Again when it hits theaters on April 17th.

Zac Efron has teamed up with his lady love Vanessa Hudgens, Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, his 17 Again costar Thomas Lennon, and his Hairspray costar Queen Latifah for a video for Will Ferrell’s website FunnyOrDie.com.

Zac’s Hairspray director Adam Shankman oversaw the video which was shot at Adam’s Hollywood Hills home on Tuesday and features quite a bit of ripped, shirtless Zac and his six pack.

So far all anyone knows is Lennon (who people might recognize from Reno 911) plays Zac-y Pooh’s Uncle Hank who crashes his A-list pool party.

When Hugh Jackman took the stage at last night’s Oscars, we were skeptical. But Wolverine delivered!

Performing on the most beautiful Oscar stage we’ve ever seen, Hugh slipped into a low-budget song and dance number that was the best opening the Oscars have had since the Billy Crystal years.

The producer’s decision to “downsize” the show because of the recession ended up inspiring the most creative, funny, well-executed kick off the show has had in recent memory.

We’ve always hated the In Memoriam section of award shows, especially when the audience claps loudly for certain really famous people and sits quietly for others. It’s just sad and uncomfortable.

This year, however, the Oscars have chosen to honor the recent dearly departed with a serenade from Queen Latifah, who we adore, who will be singing Billie Holiday’s “I’ll Be Seeing You” (like in The Notebook) while clips and photos of stars like Heath Ledger, George Carlin and Paul Newman are shown.

Last month it was Paris Hilton, and now Queen Latifah has been burgled.

Queen Latifah has been vacationing with “a female friend” (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) in Black Rock, Tobago where the robbery took place. Thieves snuck into her $1,000 per-night bungalow at Stone Haven Villas and stole more than $10,000 in jewelry while Latifah was attending a barbecue brunch held in her honor by the resort’s management.

Sounds like an inside job to us.

Joshua Jackson (looking HOT and a little embarrassed to be there), Carrie Ann Inaba (apparently wearing a sexy version of Seinfeld’s fluffy shirt), Jay Mohr (is he drunk?) and Paula Marshall (excuse us but…who?) announced the nominees for the 35th Annual People’s Choice Awards at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills on Monday.

The Dark Knight, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and Iron Man claimed this year's top nominations for favorite overall movie and favorite action movie.

Woo Hoo!!!

New Line Cinema has made a deal with Hairspray creator John Waters to write a sequel to the 2007 hit musical feature that we are OBSESSED with! On board to return are director-choreographer Adam Shankman and Tony-winning songwriters Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, who will write all new songs for the film.

No cast has been signed yet, but the studio hopes to reunite the original cast in the film which could be in theaters by mid-July 2010.
