Yesterday Terrence Howard shared some very intimate conversation
with a group of 22-year-olds while he enjoyed a strawberry
daquiri outside his hotel yesterday.
The actor is at the Ischia film festival like everyone else that
works 10 days a year. But if Bill Crosby had had his way, Terrence
would be working 355 like the rest of us Americans. Contact Music reports:
'Oscar-nominee Terrence Howard almost destroyed his promising acting career when he was axed from The Cosby Show.
He explains, "I was 19 and had just moved to New York from Cleveland, I got on The Cosby Show on my second audition ever."
Howard was so angry that his scenes were cut, he confronted the show's star and producer Bill Cosby - who he claims subsequently blacklisted him in the entertainment business.
He explains, "I told him, 'I'm a man just like you.' He didn't like it, and the casting agent never took my calls again."
Howard didn't work for four years, but recovered to forge a successful
acting career - landing an Academy Award in 2006 for his role in Hustle
+ Flow.
My theory is that things went south when Bill caught Terrence asking his 18-year-old daughter if she was cleaning herself with baby whipes after she pooed. What kind of father allows a freak like that to be on the loose?
Like a good little wife and mommy-to-be, Ashlee Simpson showed up to see Fall Out Boy perform at the Santa Monica Pier last night. And, like a good (little-r ) husband and future daddy, Pete Wentz was uber-protective of his pregnant woman.
Check out the babyfaced newlyweds fighting crowds and cuddling as they arrived at the Victoria's Secret Pinkapalooza event:
When Pete's not throwing microphones off stage over the next few
months, you can expect to find him at home sewing pink baby clothes,
according to Star Magazine.
' "When Pete heard he might have his baby on Halloween, he went nuts. For
an emo-rocker type like Pete, that would be just too perfect!"
The daddy-to-be is so excited about his daughter's arrival, he's even taken up a new hobby — sewing baby clothes!'
I know what you're thinking. But no, Pete's not gay. He's just 'in touch.' And besides, learning to sew is practical. When you're constantly tailoring your girlfriend's old jeans to fit you you, the dry cleaning bill can get expensive! And strangely, money doesn't grow on trees for celebrities either. I know, I was shocked too.
One of Jennifer Garner's old co-stars has a really big mouth, so the hot news this morning is that Violet Affleck is gonna be a big sister soon.
'Yes, she is,' Alias co-star Victor Garber, told Us Magazine. 'She is five months pregnant. They are very happy,' another 'friend' added.
No signs of a baby bump on Jen when we spotted her two weeks ago with
Violet. Visiting Lake shrine and spoiling her daughter with the
adoration and undivided attention the toddler still thinks is normal.
In about four months, some little brat is gonna come into this world and give Violet the biggest wake up call of her two-year-old life.
What's the best thing about being 15, pretty, and really, really famous?
Having the attention of every older boy within a ten mile radius, of
course.
Check out Miley Cyrus soaking up sun - and male attention - during breaks and rehearsals on the enthusiastic set of her Hannah Montana movie this week:
Yes, those little girls actually got off on hearing Miley utter their names. Kids are weird.

So in case you haven't gotten enough Mama Mia action from the ads spanning like every inch of our blog, I've got more.
Wednesday night was the movie's premiere in New York, and an excuse for celebrities to do what they do best...get dressed up and have their picture taken.
Pierce Brosnan may have lost his monopoly on James Bond movies, but he was definitely the biggest star on the red carpet last night. And no, I'm not talking about his wife Keely Shaye Smith. Awwww, but they do look in love.

So you know that rumor about Tom Cruise being gay? And Katie Holmes being his beard? Well yesterday she provided new evidence to support the 'they're-BOTH-gay-and-using-each-other-to-hide-it' theory by walking around Los Angeles looking 150% butch.
Homegirl was sporting all the signs - that short hair, little or no make-up, boyish shades, ugly pants, and a dark button-up shirt. No tattoos or nose piercings from this angle, but who knows what she's got underneath that conservative facade.
Okay, okay, so this theory is kind of a long shot. But something is weird with this chick. Why is she hiding her hands like that? Did Tom attack her with the iron for sneaking a few Ambien pills? Why isn't she wearing her wedding ring? Why did she marry a crazy person who jumps on couches and psychobabbles about saving the world?
While we ponder these questions, check out pictures of butch Katie in the set of Eli Stone after the jump...
Vanessa Hudgens wore a big white tank top with no shorts or
pants on today, so I guess she wants us to believe that what she's
wearing is actually a dress.
But she couldn't fool me. I can
confidently predict that whatever she has - or hasn't got - under there
is about two seconds from peeking out and saying hello.
The
only circumstances which excuse Disney stars from wearing this kind of
thing are if (a) she is playing Pocahontas in a new movie role, or (b)
she is returning from a long pilgrimage through the desert, where she
lost her pants because they got stuck on a really angry cactus.
While
her messy hair and tribal necklace could potentially support either of
these scenarios, I happen to know the real story. Homegirl's simply on
her way to a recording studio in Hollywood. In a limo, of course.
At least she makes up for her trashy outfit with a classy ride...
