Kendra Wilkinson’s Birthday: Chicago Style
Kendra Wilkinson’s Birthday: Chicago Style
Continuing along with a string of birthday parties in her honor, Kendra Wilkinson was spotted partying it up at Crobar in Chicago on Saturday night (June 14).
Wearing a sexy little multi-colored strapless dress, the “Girls Next Door” starlet mingled and posed with family and friends in between a little dancing and a lot of tequila-swilling.
On her actual birthday (she turned 23-years-old on Thursday, June 12), Kendra stepped out with Hugh Hefner and her fellow “Girls Next Door” to see Warren Beatty receive AFI’s 36th Lifetime Achievement Award.
And for her LA party held earlier in the week, the blonde babe told FOX Pop Tarts that she celebrated “Kendra-style” at the Lakers game, followed by a trip to Coco de Ville.
“That night was so, so fun,” she said. “Oh, but I don’t remember much.”
Beatty Buddies Roast, Honor Warren
It wasn’t just politics as usual at the American Film Institute’s tribute to Warren Beatty. Though, it was a little of that.
A laundry list of stars and politiciansincluding wife Annette Bening, sister Shirley MacLaine, Robert Downey Jr., Halle Berry, Dustin Hoffman, Jane Fonda, Diane Keaton, Quentin Tarantino, Bill Clinton, a pretaped John McCain and a post-Lakers-game Jack Nicholsonturned up for the 36th annual AFI Lifetime Achievement lovefest in Los Angeles Thursday night.
And while the ceremony itself may sound staid, the comments dished out were decidedly not…
Jane Fonda: “I thought he was gay. He was so cute, and all his men friends were gay, and brilliant. He had a way of collecting really brilliant gay men friends. And he liked to play piano in a piano barI mean, what were the odds he was straight? Shows you how dumb I was.”
Halle Berry: “There was the usual discussion with the studio if there should be a scene to spice up [Bulworth]if somebody should go topless. But I have to say, to Warren’s credit, he put his foot down and insisted on keeping his shorts on for the entire movie.”
Dustin Hoffman, on His Costarring Roles in Ishtar and Dick Tracy: “It’s ironic that I’m here for the movies-that-bombed portion of the evening…Ishtar shall rise again!”
Hoffman, on Beatty’s Initially Absent Lakers-Watching BFF, Jack Nicholson: “Rumor has it that he was going to try to combine the two. Rumor also has it that he might have been sitting courtside in a tuxedo.”
A Fashionably Late Nicholson: “[Beatty] has received eight times as many awards as he’s made pictures. You get all these honors because of your passion and your dedication to excellence. This is why I’m crazy about your work.”
Bill Clinton: “Over all these decades, you have shared with us, as moviegoers, this insatiable hunger for life. That’s what I think about when I think of you.”
Warren Beatty: “I was a liberal when it was fashionable, I was a liberal when it was unfashionable, and I’m a liberal when it’s coming back into style.”
Beatty on Bening: “I love my profession because it’s introduced me to the person who’s given me the most important thing of all, which is her love and the love of our four children…Annette. I can thank the movies for leading me to you.”
The 36th Life Achievement Award: A Tribute to Warren Beatty, honoring the 47-year career of the 71-year-old star, airs June 25 on USA.
A Good Old Fashioned Orgy Starring Jason Sudeikis, Will Forte and Leslie Bibb
“This photo is a little creepy for this item.”
A dirty old man once said, “There are friends who have, friends who haven’t and friends who lie either way,” and Jason Sudeikis, Will Forte (above) and Leslie Bibb will star as the former partakers in the comedy A Good Old Fashioned Orgy. In the battle of marquee titles befitting antiseptic Spencer’s Gifts boardgames, I’d say this one gets grandma’s attention faster than Zack and Miri Make a Porno, what about you?
Sudeikis (The Rocker, 30 Rock) will play an Apatowian-sounding manchild who has to move out of his parents’ Hamptons vacation home. Enter movie announcer guy: “…so he decided to go out with a bang!” and throw an orgy party. Wonder if Jack Nicholson and Warren Beatty will cameo. You’re welcome.
Writers Alex Gregory and Peter Huyck (King of the Hill, Letterman) will make their directorial debut for Endgame Entertainment.
Discuss: the movie.
Leonardo DiCaprio’s Hef Aspirations
Leonardo DiCaprio’s Hef Aspirations
Believe it or not, Leonardo DiCaprio wants to be Hugh Hefner… on film, that is. The Titanic star is looking into making a film about the Playboy founder.
Leo’s been in talks with the 81-year-old Hef about making a film to document his amazing life. And he wants to assume the lead role himself.
A source close to DiCaprio told press, “Leo and Hugh have been friends for a long time and Leo has always been interested in Hugh’s life story. Leo thinks it would make a great movie and Hugh would love Leo to do it - on condition Hugh is alive to see it.”
Leo has certainly done the research to play the part. He’s a regular at the legendary Playboy Mansion, and a frequent guest for Hef’s parties. Hef told press, “In the 70s Warren Beatty was having a very good time here. He and Jack Nicholson were regulars. More recently Leonardo DiCaprio is a regular. He comes to the Halloween parties with his buddies but in disguise. Last time they came as monkeys. And there were about six of them and you couldn’t tell who was who.”
Whether or not the film will make it into production is still largely unknown. But if it does, we’re all in for a fun ride through the life of Hugh Hefner.
