Source: Entertainment - Google News | 23 Apr 2010 | 2:28 am Last Night on Late Night: 'Steve' Colbert Interviews Gorillaz Interviewing a cartoon band can be tricky so last night Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn dropped his animated persona to be interviewed by Stephen Colbert. Colbert, however, was enraged by the substitution, and Albern and Gorillaz animator Jamie Hewlett had to be interviewed by Colbert's own alter ego, the deferential liberal comedian "Steve" Colbert. Someone in a media studies graduate program is probably writing a thesis about the whole thing right now. Avatars also came up on The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson, where Jeffrey Dean Morgan discussed, well, Avatar and the ethics of finding Zoe Saldana's character attractive. On his show, Jon Stewart questioned Comedy Central's principled stance on the recent South Park episode featuring Muhammad, and finally, Jimmy Kimmel embarrassed Chace Crawford with a chart detailing his Gossip Girl character's sexual conquests.

[HR] Eisner's Escape: Breck Eisner (Sahara, The Crazies) is in talks to direct New Line’s remake of Escape From New York. The new version of the 1981 original has been in development for several years; Gerard Butler was originally attached to star but has since left for creative differences. Considering the story - in which a soldier-turned-criminal has 24 hours to find the president following the crash of Air Force One - seeing anyone but Kiefer Sutherland play this role is just going to be weird.

Previously known as Friends With Benefits, the film explores the question of whether two long-term friends can have a sexual relationship without falling in love. Gerwig will play a “brainy friend of Portman’s character who is the first to recognize signs that Kutcher’s character has become smitten with her friend.” We doubt it took much effort on her part; she probably just had to check out his Twitter.

News: Entertainment News | 23 Apr 2010 | 12:19 am Report Finds 33 SEC Employees Watched Porn As Economy Fell Apart Maybe the Goldman suit was an attempt to distract from this. A SEC investigation obtained by CNN shows that as the country was in the midst of one of the worst financial crises of the past century, the attention of a number of SEC employees was on something else entirely: porn. The investigation summary reveals that 33 SEC employees and contractors - half of whom make upwards of $99,000 - viewed images of a pornographic or sexually suggestive nature during work hours on government computers over the past five years. Perhaps the most amusing aspect all of this is the politicians who want to sound indignant but are hampered by having to use vague euphemisms. Rep. Darrell Issa, for example, offered this assessment: "It is nothing short of disturbing... Inexplicably, rather than exercise its existing regulatory enforcement authority, SEC officials were preoccupied... with other distractions." Yuck.

The plan is to create a “pedestrian plaza bookended by Herald Square and the Empire State Building,” which would be achieved by banning automobiles on the block of 34th Street between Fifth Avenue and Avenue of the Americas. Crosstown bus routes will not be affected by the plan, as the proposal calls for an “experimental bus lane” through the pedestrian plaza, allowing buses to operate in both directions - and, in fact, the idea is that the notoriously slow crosstown bus system will be sped up. Though the 34th Street plan - which was initially proposed in 2008 - has now been accelerated, you can expect the usual mess of traffic and tourists when you have to trek to Macy's to return something for the next few years: the final design plans aren’t due until the fall of 2011, with the street not ready for use until the end of 2012.

Source: Vulture | 22 Apr 2010 | 6:48 pm Blagojevich Looking To Subpoena The President In news that is sure to just delight President Obama, lawyers for Rod Blagojevich, the indicted former Illinois governor, would like to subpoena the president to testify in Blagojevich’s corruption trial, which will begin this June. The lawyers argued in a motion filed today that Obama, alone, can shed light on the primary accusation levied against Blago - that he solicited gifts in exchange for an appointment to the seat left vacant by Obama when he was elected president. According to the Times, the filing issued by the defense indicates Obama was “more tangled in the discussions over who would fill his senate seat than has previously been suggested.” "In the motion, Mr. Blagojevich’s lawyers seem to suggest that the president himself could point up contradictions in the testimony about whether he had sent 'emissaries' to Mr. Blagojevich with regard to who the White House would prefer fill the Senate seat."

Source: Yahoo! News: Entertainment Reviews | 22 Apr 2010 | 5:18 pm Are Lederhosen the New Jeggings? Say It Ain’t So. If you thought jeggings couldn't be topped as the worst hybrid garment, think again. It seems that leather shorts are supposedly, despite their sweat-inducing qualities and overall cringeworthy-ness, the next big thing for spring. The Wall Street Journal says that these shorts, which it likens to lederhosen (minus the front flaps and suspenders), have gained momentum after being worn by Rihanna and Miley Cyrus and popping up on the spring runways at Chloé, YSL, Emilio Pucci, Alice + Olivia, and The Row, which has a $1,100 pair that Bergdorf is naming its “key item” of the season. And that alone wouldn’t be such a big deal. After all, not all ridiculous trends end up trickling down to the masses. Then, to our dismay, we read that Zara is carrying a paper-bag–waist version with a relatively affordable price tag of $99.99, and now we fear pleather versions at Forever 21 and H&M are not far away. "It's like a leather jacket," says Ikram Goldman, owner of MObama’s favorite Chicago shop, of the item. Except not really, because leather and jackets, both cool-weather staples, go together perfectly, whereas leather and shorts don't. While the article points out that designers are excited about this trend because they have finally created something that women don’t have in their closets, we’d like to point out that there’s an obvious reason for that.

Source: The Cut | 22 Apr 2010 | 4:55 pm Leaked: The Gaslight Anthem Are Still Catchy, Still Sad The Gaslight Anthem, American Slang Official release date: June 15 The Verdict: A good week for leaks continues today with the Gaslight Anthem’s third studio album, American Slang, hitting the file-sharing circuit. Gaslight fans will find it instantly recognizable, in a good, comforting, big-catchy-cleaned-up-punk-riffs and heartfelt-but-at-times-extremely-corny sing-along choruses kind of way. Everyone else will perhaps soon be forming their own opinions, as we can imagine the push from the Slang press rounds might well shove the New Jersey rockers toward mass exposure. The bad news? We’re a little concerned about front man Brian Fallon: Seemingly more so than ever before, Fallon’s obsessed with regrets, lost friends, broken hearts, missed opportunities, and just the general state of things plum done gone wrong (the chorus on “Old Haunts” goes “don’t sing me your songs about the good times/those days are gone and you should just let them go.”) Cheer up, Brian! You’re a young man who fronts a popular rock band about to release a great new album!

Source: Yahoo! News: Entertainment Reviews | 22 Apr 2010 | 4:21 pm The New Bloomberg Businessweek: More Color, More Pages, and Soon, More Celebrity Writers We just got our hands on a copy of the new Bloomberg Businessweek, and the redesign, at first glance, looks pretty substantial. The magazine is bigger, more thoughtfully organized, and does have a different look to it: but it's not an entirely different title than the one you know. It's still sort of the same outfit as the old Business Week, with the sleeves let out to compensate for the size of Bloomberg's bulging reporting and financial muscles. Here's what's new: The sections: Everything before the feature well is divided into six color-coded sections (and there's a helpful index page which will lead you to key terms throughout the issue). The "Opening Remarks" section, which Josh Tyrangiel explains in his editor's letter is "a richly reported essay on one of the week's most important stories" (this week it's on Goldman Sachs and how it won't be cowed by the "theater of aggressive reform" in Washington), will likely be the cover piece from time to time. Then the rest of the short, Economist-style pieces are divided into sections called "Global Economics," "Policy & Politics," "Markets & Finance," "Companies & Industries," "Technology," and "Enterprise." These are almost entirely supplied by Bloomberg's massive host of reporters. The feature well looks pretty similar, though deeper (and it's set to expand), and there's a new "Etc" section in the rear that features more lighthearted workplace and consumer pieces. The Staff: Looks like Tyrangiel has beefed up his staff with a number of contributors from the now-defunct Portfolio. We spotted Sheelah Kolhatkar's name on the masthead, and Karl Taro Greenfield's byline in the feature well, as well as a column by Michael Lewis — who is among the first in a wave of high-profile writers we hear the magazine is courting. But the Journal reports that as of now, there are only three full-time staff writers based here in New York. The Look: First things first, the cover now has "Bloomberg Businessweek" on it in all the same size font, with teaser boxes across the top of the page. Inside, there's more color and a lot of text — though the layout is slightly different, at least that feels somewhat the same between the two versions. Creative director Richard Turley came onboard from the Guardian and the use of color and sense of momentum will ring a bell to readers of the London paper. There are also surprises littered through the text, like tiny "Bottom Line" summaries at the end of dense news items. The Size: It's bigger. According to The Wall Street Journal, there will be a minimum 66 news pages each issue, where there used to be about 55. As a result, combined with increased ad pages, the magazine feels significantly heftier.

Source: Daily Intel | 22 Apr 2010 | 4:20 pm Woody Allen Names a Movie Early for Once In a break from standard protocol, Woody Allen has revealed the name and details of an upcoming project before its completion. The director's Midnight in Paris will star Wilson, Marion Cotillard, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates, and Carla Bruni and center on "a family traveling to the city for business, including a young engaged couple that has their lives transformed throughout the journey. The film celebrates a young man's great love for Paris, and simultaneously explores the illusion people have that a life different from their own is better." As you know, Woody typically waits to see the finished product before giving it a name — if it's good, he'll give it an attention-getting title; if it's bad, a less flashy one — so he must have either felt confident about Paris's potential (pretty bold name, we think) or just stopped giving a crap altogether. Either way, this one sounds okay to us. Woody Allen reveals details of upcoming pic [Variety] Read more posts by Lane Brown Filed Under: woody, midnight in paris, movies, woody allen

Source: Daily Intel | 22 Apr 2010 | 4:05 pm Should There Be a New York Menswear Fashion Week? Michael Bastian Thinks So, CFDA Is Iffy Thom Browne's Spring 2010 collection, shown in New York. With the American menswear market absolutely exploding over the last five years, it’s getting both designers and industry types scratching their heads as to whether New York should show a little patriotism and host its own menswear Fashion Week. WWD explored the matter, explaining that the common reasoning in favor of a New York–based week, separate from the women's schedule, involves the time lapse between Europe's spring men's shows in late June and the Americans showing both men's and women's in September, which makes it difficult for menswear designers that stayed back home to make the deadline for European sales. “What ends up happening is selling shuts down in August, then we show, and a lot of accounts come back and want to add things that came down the runway, and it’s actually too late,” explains Michael Bastian, who shows Stateside, but also has production in Italy, which makes things a bit easier. “So we do pay a price.” At the same time, Bastian, a former fashion director at Bergdorf Goodman, says he’s staying put, headache or not. “I feel New York is the right context for what I’m doing. I’m resolute that I will stay here. Whatever effect it has on my business, I accept,” he says. “I think it’s important to stand up and be part of New York. What I’m doing should be seen in the context of others with this American point of view. It would be weird to show between Dolce & Gabbana and Roberto Cavalli— that ’s another planet.” That “planet,” however, is one that many American designers are willing to inhabit, including Adam Kimmel, who shows in Paris, John Varvatos, who has shown in Milan for three seasons, Marc Jacobs, who is rumored to start showing a menswear collection in Milan, and Thom Browne, who shows his two collections for Moncler in Italy and will move his namesake show to Paris this June. “Again, unless there’s a real demand for it, it would be a difficult thing to build, because you wouldn’t be guaranteed the right designers would participate,” Steven Kolb, the executive director of the CFDA, explains to WWD. “How would you layer marquee names with the emerging designers so it’s fully representative? That’s been the challenge.” Although, we think, a challenge worth fighting. While the majority of American menswear designers still show in New York (over 50 showed this past fashion week, including biggies like Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein), the news of major tastemakers in the men's market like Marc Jacobs and Thom Browne fleeing for Europe is a little troubling. And with the depth of talent working so hard to put the U.S. on the map — think Robert Gellar, Patrik Ervell, Richard Chai, Band of Outsiders, Shipley & Halmos, Victor Glemaud, etc. — it's only right to reward them with something they can call their own.

Here's how it went down.
Well no wonder. Clearly, the guy's game was entirely off. You can't just come at the CEO of the biggest and most fearsome financial company in the world with an attack. He needs to be coaxed. Maybe with a small treat, or a little scratch behind the ears. Andrew Ross Sorkin knows what we're talking about. So we thought we'd reach out to Clark, you know, journalist to "journalist," to suggest that maybe he should have tried a different approach.

Source: Daily Intel | 22 Apr 2010 | 3:20 pm Hillary Clinton Would Still Really Rather Skype Nobody, except freaks, actually likes flying. But Hillary Clinton really doesn't like flying. We can tell, because whenever she talks about the downsides of her job as secretary of State, she doesn't mention "We can't stop Iran from getting the bomb" or "Afghanistan is a quagmire" or "The Israelis and the Palestinians are hopeless." She mentions air travel. In fact, she can nearly recite her gripe by memory at this point. From Newsweek last December:
That's very close to what she recently told Esquire, save for an added poignant and slightly unintelligible observation about the human condition:

Now, it seems the crew has moved uptown — to Harlem, in fact — to shoot Madonna for what Stefano Gabbana has confirmed on Twitter is the long-rumored fall womenswear campaign! Paparazzi swarming the shoot captured Madge strolling the streets, locking elbows with and cuddling up to a much younger man — most likely around the same age as Madonna's on-again-off-again 23-year-old boyfriend, Jesus Luz — who carries a few nets full of onions (how very Italiano of him!). This new campaign is a slight variation from the spring 2010 ads, in which Madonna played a sexy Italian housewife, unconvincingly sweeping floors, washing dishes, cutting tomatoes, and eating spaghetti while dressed to the nines in Dolce. This season’s ads have her sporting the same cleavage-enhancing necklines and cross necklace from last season, albeit all in a more urbane setting. In any case, we think this cougar thing is getting a little out of hand. This kid is clearly in his 20s, he's a studly model, and we know what happened the last time those components mixed with Madonna. Jesus, come get your girl.

Success. I am the proud owner of my very own Vigo The Carpathian painting. However, I’m sorry to say, it appears that the link has been taken down. I can only pray that you guys took my advice and printed it out before it was too late. Not moments after I found the link yesterday, upon Michelle’s urging, I went to the 26th floor of the Best Week Ever Spaceship to print Vigo. I opted to print it on canvas to make my Vigo experience more authentic. I used 90 percent of my monthly printing budget. My monthly printing budget is $100. I’ll wait while you use your calculator. When the nice printing lady saw what I wanted to print she said, “Oh, this famous painting. I’ve printed this out at least ten times in the past month for some guy.” What?? Also, what??? I pressed her for more information, like, who is this person/my soulmate, but she wasn’t very forthcoming. Apparently there’s a printer-printee relationship similar to a doctor-patient one. Then she gave me a check up. THEN an hour later when I went to pick Vigo up (it takes a while to print a 24×36 inch hi-res image onto canvas) two dudes were there, saw my painting and said, “That’s exactly what we were going to print just now!” What in the world?! Has Vigo possessed us all, completing his intended task? Are we just all on the same Ghostbusters 2 page? Is this what Jung meant by the collective unconscious? Did I just unnecessarily drop a pretentious reference? Can I do whatever I please because I’m the one with the Vigo painting? Either way, Michelle is going to frame it and hang it in her apartment. But for now, we’re enjoying it here.

Obviously, for this irregular teen, summer camp or serving up scoops for paltry wages at Baskin-Robbins is not really an option. Instead, she’ll be judging a chic fashion-film competition, alongside famously black-clad fashion writer Diane Pernet from a Shaded View on Fashion. The contest, dubbed A Shaded View on Fashion Film 2010, is hosted by TalentHouse.com and open to all makers of fashion-, beauty-, and style-themed films of varying length. The winner will get to have his or her film screened at what will be the fourth annual a Shaded View on Fashion Film event next year. So what do filmmakers have to do to get past the discerning eye of Tavi? “There has to be a strong concept — it can't just be about looking at how shiny and pretty the clothes and models are because to me that feels like a TV commercial,” Tavi tells British Vogue. "There are some specific aesthetics I am really into, but the most important thing is that they have something to say and meet their goal in projecting a message." Submissions must be received by July 15 and will be shortlisted by a public vote from July 20–23. After Tavi and Pernet make their final decision, a winner will be announced August 12. In other news, Tavi celebrated her birthday on her blog today by posting a naked picture of Maggie Rizer surrounded by balloons from 1998, which was only two years after Tavi was born.
