Drew Barrymore Loses the Long Face
Maybe Drew Barrymore prefers PCs after all.
The 50 First Dates star and her frequent PDA partner Justin Long have parted ways after nearly a year of dating, Barrymore’s rep confirms to News.
A source close to the pair told Us Weekly, which first reported the breakup, that they remain friends.
At least they’ll have some alone time before they have to simultaneously walk the red carpet at the premiere of the relationship-book-inspired ensemble comedy He’s Just Not That Into You, which hits theaters Feb. 6, 2009.
Barrymore first started seeing the Mac-peddling actor in August 2007 after they met on the set of the film, which also stars Jennifer Aniston, Ben Affleck and Scarlett Johansson.
In March, she told Vogue that she was so happy, “my cheeks hurt.”
“They’re two peas in a pod, they’re made for each other,” Barrymore’s Charlie’s Angels costar Sam Rockwell told People just last month. “They’re like Mr. and Mrs. Warmth.”
Huey Lewis’ Pineapple Express Theme Song
The rumors are true. Seth Rogen was able to convince Huey Lewis to record a title theme song for the upcoming Judd Apatow stoner comedy Pineapple Express.
“It is called Pineapple Express, cleverly,” director David Gordon Green told movieweb. “Our only input was, we told him we wanted it to sound like his 80s work that we loved so much. And we wanted to have the plot in it. And we wanted to have him say the title as many times as he could. There is a lot of alto sax. It is kind of like that ‘other’ Back to the Future Huey Lewis song. Not ‘Power of Love’ but ‘Back in Time’. Yeah.”
Here are the lyrics from the song’s chorus:
We got trouble,
we got to get out of here.
I’ve got you,
you’ve got me.
We are as high as we can be.
That’s all right.
How did we get into this mess?
Pineapple Express!
Sounds like an instant classic to me! Unfortunately we’ll have to wait until August 8th 2008 to hear it. But for now, enjoy this vintage music video for Huey Lewis & the News’ Power of Love which features a cameo of Christopher Lloyd as Doc Brown with his time traveling Delorean.
Discuss: How cool is Huey Lewis?
Hilary Duff’s Animal Hospital Visit
Hilary Duff’s Animal Hospital Visit
Wearing tight plaid pants with a white tanktop, Hilary Duff dropped by the California Animal Hospital in Los Angeles on Thursday (July 3).
Accessorizing with a pair of cute blue pumps, sunglasses and a brown leather bag, the “Lizzie McGuire” actress was there on behalf of one of her numerous canine housemates.
Meanwhile, in career related news, Duff is scheduled to record her fifth studio album during the summer months of this year as a follow-up to her first studio album, Metamorphosis, which went triple platinum.
As previously reported by , the 20-year-old former Disney queen is also set to star in the new comedy Stay Cool, in which she plays “a sultry high school senior who tries to seduce an author visiting her school.”
Sacha Baron Cohen To Play Sherlock Holmes
Sacha Baron Cohen, creator of Ali G and Borat, will play Sherlock Holmes according to Variety. Friend and fellow funny man Will Ferrell will play his crime-solving partner Dr Watson. The movie will be a comedy (obviously) and has nothing to do with the Sherlock Holmes movie Guy Ritchie is working on. Producer Matt Tolmach says:
“Sacha and Will are two of the funniest and most talented guys on the planet, and having them take on these two iconic characters is frankly hilarious.”
The pair worked together on Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby which did rather well. However Ferrell’s most recent movie, Semi-Pro, didn’t do that great at the box office which could suggest people are tired of Will Ferrell playing Will Ferrell just with a different setting. Hopefully this Sherlock Holmes movie will require him to act a little, rather just play his loud and obnoxious self.
