WHITE PEOPLE CAN’T BOLLYWOOD DANCE

01.29.09 Written by Vince Mancini

When 50 Cent was on a Turkish game show a while back, they challenged him to do a Turkish dance and it was kind of like that scene in Airplane where the anthropologist introduces the African tribes people to basketball and they immediately start throwing alley oops to each other.  Meanwhile, Freida Pinto (the female lead in Slumdog Millionaire) was recently on Craig Ferguson, and when she tried to teach him the Bollywood Step, it was sort of a disaster, because Ferguson is Scottish and Scots tend to dance only during alcohol-induced seizures.  Also: when did dancing with the host become standard talk show-guest behavior? Should I blame Ellen?  If I was a talk show host, I’d have on one of those African ladies to teach me how to balance like 80 pounds of junk on my head because that seems like a really useful skill.

ROM-COM COUNTS DOWN ROM-COM CLICHES

01.29.09 Written by Vince Mancini

In an effort to convince guys that He’s Just Not That Into You isn’t that same boring chick flick, they’ve released this video (after the jump) in which Justin Long, Brad Cooper, and Kevin Connelly count down the Top 10 Chick Flick Clichés that aren’t in He’s Just Not that Into You.  Here they are so you don’t have to watch it (and yes, I realize there are more than 10).

No makeover montages
No singing into random objects
No quirky best friend
No sardonic best friend
No sassy best friend
No one-night-stand followed by finding out they actually slept with their boss
No one slides down a wall while crying
No one laughs and cries at the same time
No elderly folks who say inappropriate things
Nobody chases anyone to stop them from doing something
No heads falling into the frame and landing on pillows
No winning over a woman by telling her all the little things he likes about her
No falling in love montage

Honestly, all I got out of watching this is that Kevin Connelly is still the least likable actor in Hollywood.  What is it about him?  He’s like the annoying little brother I never had.  I just wanna punch his little kidneys until he pees blood.

MICKEY ROURKE NOT WRESTLING, ACTUALLY

01.29.09 Written by Vince Mancini

Despite a semi-serious sounding announcement on the red carpet of the SAG Awards, reps for Mickey Rourke are now confirming that he will NOT be wrestling at Wrestlemania.

Paula Woods wrote in an e-mail that the Oscar-nominated actor “will not be participating in Wrestlemania. He is focusing entirely on his acting career.”

And here’s part of the story that I somehow missed the first time around:

Rourke had said he was going to toss Jericho “around the ring like tossed salad.” [Yahoo]

Unless you consider the double entendre, that’s a pretty poorly constructed threat.  I’m gonna tear you down like a torn-down building! Then I’m gonna squash you like a squashed… squash!  I’m assuming he meant it the other way, in which case fake wrestling sounds like it’s gotten a lot sexier since I last watched.
