Morrison, who has an extensive background on Broadway, will spend part of June recording the album in London. "I'm writing all the music for it. It's me and a big orchestra behind me," he said, describing his sound as “dance heavy” and a “cross between Michael Buble and Justin Timberlake.” Whatever you do Matthew, please, no rapping. [HR] Bloody Good: Julia Stiles has joined the cast of Showtime's Dexter for its upcoming fifth season. She is set to appear in 10 of the season’s 12 episodes, playing a “mysterious young woman who forms a unique relationship with Dexter in the wake of the death of his wife.” Let’s hope she's as intriguing as season two's Lila... just without the completely psychotic element. Dex has been through enough. [HR] Captain's Maker: Stanley Tucci has been cast as Abraham Erskine in Captain America: The First Avenger, joining Chris Evans, Sebastian Stan, Hugo Weaving and Hayley Atwell. In the comics, Erskine is a German scientist who is instrumental in "creating" Captain America, which means we're probably in for more of a Lovely Bones Tucci than a Julie & Julia Tucci. [Variety] Kick Ass: FX is joining forces with Matthew McConaughey on a single-camera comedy tentatively titled Kick Ass Militia, based on source material from McConaughey’s pal JR Reed. The story follows two brothers - “one a survivalist and one a free-loving cult leader” - who are always at odds on their Malibu compound. McConaughey is executive producing and it’s unclear if he’ll appear on the series - though if he is, just a hunch, we're thinking he'd be the "free-loving" one. [Deadline] Not So Beautiful: Beastly - the romantic fantasy film based on Beauty and the Beast, starring Vanessa Hudgens, Alex Pettyfer and Neil Patrick Harris - has been bumped from its scheduled July 30 release until March 18, 2011. Indie CBS Films made the decision after the “similarly themed” Zac Efron flick Charlie St. Cloud moved to the same July 30 date.

I think people always wanted [it] and have complained that the episodes are too short — they've always wanted more... In the trailer, you see [Ari and Lloyd] waking up together in Vegas not knowing what happened. It would be pretty cool!"

But leave it to Mother Teresa to bring them together! Quinn and the league have joined forces to, of all things, fight to get the Empire State building to put up a light display in honor of Teresa’s 100th birthday this upcoming August 26. The building rejected the league’s request for the holy woman to be honored with a display of blue and white lights and - when Quinn heard of the veto - she decided to reach out to the building’s ownership herself. "The question of why the building will not be lit is a question that deserves answering," Quinn told the Daily News. "As far as I'm concerned, the answer should be yes."

Lending credence to the rumor is that Bell was one of the five actors on the shortlist leaked two weeks ago. But then again: remember when everyone thought Jim from The Office was a lock to play Captain America? If the Bell rumor is in fact true though, the over 11,000 members of the “Donald Glover 4 Spiderman!!!” Facebook group are in for some serious heartbreak.

We usually watch from 7 to 9, but every now and then it kind of leaks over into that 9 to 10 hour, and, you know, they get to have their mimosas, and [my wife] wants her mimosa, and it just turns into a whole other thing. I think she just cuts it on just to see if they’re drinking in the morning, so that maybe we can have a drink, too. It gives her an excuse. So keep up the good work, Kathie Lee and Hoda."

There has to be a get-married-for-a–green card maze they could whip up), but Universal Pictures is down. Or at least down to assemble the entire creative team behind The Proposal for a new comedy and hope it earns them $315 million dollars. The studio has picked up a pitch for Most Wanted, which co-stars Bullock and Reynolds as a criminal and U.S. Marshal, respectively, forced to go on the run, has a script from The Proposal's screenwriter, and will hopefully be helmed by The Proposal's director.

And just in case you missed it last week, we’ve also got 25 looks from Yves Saint Laurent’s turban-chic showdown.

Did I say interviewing? I meant making them slightly to moderately uncomfortable. Of course, I kid. Celebrities love me! Celebrities such as Snoop Dogg, Whitney Port, Johnny Weir, T.I., Omarion, The Blind Side’s Quinton Aaron, Cast of The Buried Life, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Jake Abel, New Moon Kiowa Gordon, The Dudesons (from Finland, insane), and the only Celtics fan in L.A., Christopher Mintz-Plasse. But really, watch this. I paid for an up-do and everything, come on. Now, to plan my date with Omarion. Follow me on Twitter.

They figured out how to play the financial crisis to their advantage, and now, apparently, they've figured out how to wriggle out of any wrongdoing, by providing the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission with too little and too much information. Today, the commission subpoenaed Goldman for “failing to comply with a request for documents and interviews in a timely manner.” Simultaneously, Committee Chairman Phil Angelides complained that the firm had given them too much information, after the firm delivered 20 million pages of documents to the office. But that's not what they asked for! "We did not ask them to pull up a dump truck to our offices to dump a bunch of rubbish," Angelides said in a conference call.
We're not going to let the American people be played for chumps here. We should not be forced to play 'Where's Waldo' on behalf of the America people."

Tonight at the CFDA awards, The Fashion Show's new co-host, Iman, will receive the Fashion Icon award. Why? Aside from being a beauty who's, well, iconic, the Times explains:
Oh, so the CFDA works in ways as mysterious as we've always suspected. But Iman, who launched her cosmetics line for women of color in 1994 and now sells a line of caftans and other accessories on QVC, also has a point of view — one that designers respect, and that at least Michael Kors seems to miss. After moving to New York in 1975 having never worn makeup or high heels:
It's also hard for us to recognize all the new, young girls, and we wish we could. If models are allowed to have curves and work past the age of 22 again, maybe the industry will encourage them to vocalize their opinions, too.

This year, it’s gotten so unwieldy that it’s interfering with Elle editor Robbie Myers’s busy summer calendar. “The thing that’s torture about it is that it’s become a full-fledged show season, but it’s spread out over almost three weeks. So it’s impossible to schedule and get your work done and all that,” she said at the Jason Wu show Friday. “I’m not going to complain about it,” she added quickly, “but the fact is that in the last three years, this season has bloomed into seated shows and a different kind of calendar. And if you’re in the fashion-magazine business, this month is when you’re closing the biggest issue of the year.” Wu confirmed that resortwear has indeed become a principal season. “This is the biggest resort collection I’ve ever done,” he said. His show, which featured bateau stripes, a pressed-daffodil silk print, and jabot dresses topped with polka-dotted ascots and boater hats, displayed only a third of his designs. “It’s a full collection, and it’s become one of our biggest seasons, and it’s really important.” Unlike Myers, fashion writer Derek Blasberg said he enjoys the more laid-back, drawn-out nature of resort shows. “It’s polite and pleasant and not as manic and hectic as the normal Fashion Weeks. I’m not complaining about it. Don’t mess it up for me!” he said. “Things are a little more spaced out and there’s not a bunch of parties at night. Fashion Week’s hectic, man. Let’s keep resort a little more pleasant. Easy-breezy. That’s what resort’s all about anyway, right?” See Jason Wu's complete 2011 resort collection.

Delusions of heavenly celebrity grandeur were quickly diminished once members of the press (Yes, I am one. No, I know.) were filed out onto the red carpet in the boiling hot sun, something I hadn’t planned for in Los Angeles, California, because I don’t have a PhD in “The Most Obvious Things.” Now, a major thank you to MTV Press for hooking me up with a spot on the carpet, sandwiched between the lovely people at VH1 News and BET.2 And a bigger thank you to AJ, who hooked me up with some coffee and a small bag of Goldfish brand crackers that would eventually be given to Snoop Dogg. (True story.) That being said, within 10 minutes of standing outside in the boiling heat, I looked like this: Thankfully, the lovely Michael of Popbytes had a small bottle of sunscreen he was willing to share with me, which I then liberally shmeared all over my body while making not work appropriate sounds of ecstasy. SPFFs 4VR. 2 hours and 9 heatstrokes later… the celebrities arrived! And oh, how much fun we had:
Wait a sec. Watching the video would probably be easier: But enough red carpet tidbits! There is video footage of that below. No, it’s showtime. 6 PM Pacific time. I hustled my sequined as doing a high-heeled tiny foot into the theater. And the set. The set! It was 9 Imaxes wide, 50 Cloverfields high, and very, very busy. It was staggering. Glorious. I don’t know who designed this set, but it’s safe to say this person, male or female, has either a microscopic or an uber-gigandy penis. The show was hosted by comedian Aziz Ansari, who reunited with the beloved Human Giant cast for one of the night highlights, a little video called Stunt Kidz. The other highlight, obviously, was Tom Cruise rapping and dancing as Les Grossman, his Tropic Thunder alter-ego. Yes, my rods and cones have witnessed this funstrosity live and in person, though to be fair my seat was so far away that for a good 3 minutes I thought he had been dancing with Beyonce and not Jennifer Lopez. Then there was the totally unplanned make-out between Sandra Bullock, wearing shoes with a built in mini-stage, and Scarlett Johansson. My ears are still ringing from the sonic boom of applause received by Sandra, followed by primal shrieks of lust for Rob Pattinson and Betty White. (Side-note: Feelin’ R Pattz’ new hairstyle.) Halfway through the show, during a well-timed red wine break, I peeked outside of the theater to see worker bees putting together the after-party. A party which I did not possess a ticket for. A party which I had to attend in order to feel better about myself as a person. (That last sentence is California’s official motto, by the way.)
Gratefully, no one booted me out of my little hidey hole, so when the party started, I was able to waltz right on in, directly in front of throngs of rejected party people looking in enviously. “Pft, commoners” I thought, as I brushed concrete powder off the back of my dress from sitting on a pillar for 20 minutes. The party was worth the wait. Tons of food stretching in every direction, a morsel of which I did not touch because, hello, what if I ran into someone I knew and I was eating? “No thank you” I thought as I publicly reached into the top of my dress to reperk my breasts up.
Me: “Guys! You inspired me. I went to a tanning bed on Friday to prepare for the show.” Ronnie: “Don’t go to tanning beds!! You gotta get sprayed!” Me: “Spray tanned? I don’t know. I don’t like the idea of someone spray tanning my area.” (Circling hand around area.) Sammi “Sweetheart”: “What? No I don’t like that either. They have machines that do it! Use the spray machines!” Me: “I am constantly learning from you.” Everyone: Laughter. No, but really, you guys, they’re so nice. I will always side with them in a bar fight, let it be known.
That being said, the day was INCREDIBLY fun. I met some fine people from the MTV LA office, mingled with local characters, and managed to turn my Eastern European whiteface into a more sultry navy red. MTV, you spoil me. I thank you. 1Reverse JK. 2Things eventually got confusing on the carpet when the lot of us were shuffled over a few inches, placing me in front of the BET News sign. Many confused looks, like “Why is this giant white girl working for BET?” Thankfully, the gentleman sent over by BET was actually black, which cleared up some confusion. However, believe me, if BET were to hire a giant white girl, it would be me.

She wore a T-shirt, on-trend cargo pants, a trucker hat, and bedazzled sunglasses.

Images of a few styles, designed by both Martone and Kim, have been released. Though Martone is from Brazil, where people appreciate swimsuits so much they don't take a beach vacation without bringing four options with them, this line was inspired by Manhattan. Hence the name, Nycked, which has "NYC" in it and is pronounced "Nicked" not "Nekkid," as you might suspect. Prices range from $120 to $130 for suits, while cover-ups go up to $210. Martone and Kim will show the line to retailers at Miami Swim Fashion Week in July, and hope to get picked up by Saks and Neiman Marcus. ![]() Photo: Nycked Though the line is trendy, it's also practical! “There are only sequins on the front of this bikini bottom, and not the back, so that it’s more comfortable to sit on at the edge of a pool,” Kim said.
