Rihanna is dodging Tyler Perry and it’s Whitney Houston’s fault

Rihanna‘s not really what you would call an actress, despite that awful appearance in Battleship – and I say that as a Rihanna fan. Singer? Of course. Fashion plate? I’ll buy it. However, she’s still hot shit in the celebrity world, so of course Mr. Madea himself, Tyler Perry, wants to book her in for a new movie role. The problem is, that’s never going to happen because Whitney Houston told RiRi before she died that Tyler Perry movies are for “fading black stars”. Ouch! From Radar: “Whitney put her off Tyler by warning her bluntly that ‘Tyler’s films are for fading black stars, not rising ones,’” the source said. “Rihanna so respected Whitney because in addition to being one of the biggest pop stars ever, she starred in hit movies such as The Bodyguard.” And Rihanna, also a multi-talented star, feels it will be better for her career to do something similar to the 2012 science fiction war film Battleship, for which she received glowing reviews, the source said. “She’s ruling out doing a Tyler Perry-style romantic comedy because she thinks she works better in action roles, playing the tough girl.” HAHAHA, okay. First of all, please tell me they’re going to continue making movies based on board games so Rihanna can star. Maybe she can play the role of The Car in the Monopoly movie? What about Lord Licorice in Candyland? I’m into it. Second of all, I feel like I need to watch the Madea movies now. Are they on Netflix? Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Kim Kardashian ran away from a blow job

Alright, I know that title was a bit crass for so early in the morning, but I couldn’t help myself. Kim Kardashian (and the entire Kardashian/Jenner clan, for that matter) are filming over in Thailand right now, and while they’re all #blessed to be experiencing the country’s beauty (yes, that’s seriously a hashtag they used), they also can’t forget to take time for some selfies. Kim was working on what she probably thought was gonna be a pretty bad ass selfie with an elephant, but things sorta went awry when the beautiful, majestic animal blew a ton of air out of its trunk and scared the shit out of Kim. Best of all, it was all captured in a photo! This is just hilarious. I don’t watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians or any of their other endless spinoffs, but if this was going to be in an episode, I’d make an effort to tune in. Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Lorde isn’t really into Photoshop

Lorde is a pretty obnoxious kid sometimes, unfortunately. It happens – she’s 17 and thinks she knows everything about the world, but then didn’t we all at that age? However, she is pretty cool and mature for her age sometimes and her music is pretty good, so I was pretty pleased when she spoke out about Photoshopping on her Twitter page the other day. Apparently someone took some photos of her during a recent concert and did some handy dandy editing to make her skin look nicer. That’s sweet and all, but Lorde embraces her imperfections and decided to put up an un-retouched photo alongside it to let her fans know that “flaws are okay”! i find this curious – two photos from today, one edited so my skin is perfect and one real. remember flaws are ok :-) pic.twitter.com/PuRhxt2u2O — Lorde (@lordemusic) March 31, 2014 That’s pretty great of her. Stars are used to Photoshop and they depend on it to make them look superhuman, so it’s great to see that not everyone tries to fool people into thinking that’s what they look like in real life. Get it, Lorde! Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Miranda Kerr is ready to “sexually explore” with women

It’s only been about six months since Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom announced their separation, but they’re already moving on to bigger and better things. In fact, Miranda is ready to do some sexual exploration… with women as well as men! Asked about her romantic life in the new issue of GQ, she said: “I appreciate both men and women. I love the female body and truly appreciate the female form. I really enjoy sketching women, especially their backs. I definitely need a man in the bedroom, however — a nice strong chest to lie on. Still, I want to explore. Never say never.” “I’m dating. I’m loving it. Two happy parents are better than two unhappy parents. This is my time to explore and have some fun. I’m not looking to fall in love again quickly.” Well, that’s that, I suppose. I mean, let’s be frank – Miranda Kerr is not a lesbian, nor is she even bisexual. She’s probably one of those women who would have a threesome with a woman because the dude she was sleeping with wanted it. Which, that’s it’s own thing, so whatever. I’m sure there are lots of men – and ladies – who was into that. Follow us on Twitter | Facebook

Chris Evans won’t be quitting acting, after all

Chris Evans made some pretty douchey comments recently about how he always wanted to direct but since he can’t, well, he guesses he HAS to just go make millions on acting. However, he insisted he’d only take part in Marvel movies and other than that, no dice. Boo hoo, right? Well, turns out, that’s not what he actually meant by that and you’re all getting your panties in a twist over nothing, as he explained (sorta?) on Good Morning America this week: “[Suddenly I’m] retiring, hanging up the shoes, I guess! By no means am I planning on retiring. It’s kind of a silly statement.” Well, yeah, it is a silly statement, but when you chunter on about all the movies you don’t wanna do and how you refuse to do this that and the other and you really want to be doing something else, people are going to read into that. You’ve been in this Hollywood game long enough, dude. You know better. I’m not what you would call a “Chris Evans fan”, so I couldn’t really care less whether he retires or not. But ladies (and gents) who do like him, this should make you happy! Follow us on Twitter | Facebook
