"I Hated Spider-Man 2, James Franco." (Hoodie Allen)



By now, most everyone should know... the timespan between 2010-11 was without a doubt rather prosperous for one Mr. James Franco. In some circles, he's been affectionately titled, "Tinseltown's Favourite Weirdo" - For his diversified movie role selections and various side-projects. A few of "Teddy"'s recent block-busters include: Pineapple Express, Milk, Howl, Your Highness, Date Night ["Taste Tripplehorn"], and 127 Hours. IMDb then lists Franco's Upcoming Projects (2011-13) as: The Broken Tower, Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Rebel, Maladies, Sal [Mineo], The Stare, Cherry, Oz: The Great and Powerful... The Iceman, and [Linda] Lovelace?


James Franco decided to go back to UCLA during the 2006-08 semesters... nearly 10 years after dropping out after his freshman year. Talking some 62 19 course credits/quarter, Franco graduated with an English degree/3.5 GPA and enrolled in 4 separate grad. schools. Really carving out a unique path of his own... Franco is quickly becoming a Pop Culture Icon, while staying true to himself and keeping people guessing. Additional endeavors have included: Palo Alto: Stories (novel), Kalup & Franco - performance art project, "Three's Company: The Drama," and co-hosting Oscars #83 with Anne Hathaway. As well as an upcoming Broadway-adapted version of Tennessee Williams' "Sweet Bird of Youth," 44 episodes of General Hospital (spanning 2009-11), and a rumored nude coffee table book [Terry Richardson] with Lindsay Lohan.

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of...

Jet Planes, Islands, Tigers On a Gold Leash: Lorde - "Royals" (The Weeknd Remixo)

I think it's pretty safe to say that The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye) comfortably teeters the fine line between glitched-out smooth New Age R&B and hard-hitting Hip-Hop ; while the same could arguably be said for 16-year-old New Zealand new-comer, Lorde . Her break-out single "Royals" 1/2 jokingly shouts out semi-common bravado-worthy shit like: diamonds, "gold teeth, Grey Goose ... Cadillacs, Cristal, Maybach ... jet planes, islands, [and] tigers on a gold leash." But now, the Lorde/Weeknd connection has been further solidified, as Tesfaye recently managed to conjure up and release his own "Royals" remix. My beautiful girlfriend said earlier, and I paraphrase, that it "makes her wanna dance lol and she could [likely] hear this remix in a future movie!" Following the wide-spread release of her first 2 EP's (Love Club & Tennis Court) , Universal Republic plans to unleash Lorde 's proper debut album, Pure Heroine between ...

Pop Artist & Surfer Chronicle Intriguing Ex-Pornstar In "SASHA GREY."

Seemingly made to co-exist as thought-provoking companion pieces... "LINDSAY LOHAN" directors Richard Phillips & Taylor Steele are back with their most recent Art Presentation, "SASHA GREY." The 90-second short film was shot in early May @ John Lautner Chemosphere House in Los Angeles, CA. Both striking flicks will be shown on a giant floating video screen [ "Commercial Break" ] @ Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Venice, Italy (June 1-5). "Adult acting chops" aside, Sasha (23) seems very intelligent, captivating, free-spirited, business savvy, well-mannered, charming... and dare I say, "average." And I really think that's exactly what Phillips/Steele were trying to convey throughout the course of the piece; Grey's beauty, public draw, sheer likeability, and honesty will surely take her very far in future endeavors... Solidifying her [updated] image as a true "Pop Culture Figure." * Featured soundtra...
