Cinematical's SmartGossip: Another Scary Photo Week
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Cinematical's SmartGossip! While the past week may have been a little slow for celebrity news and gossip, it was a fabulous week for bizarre photos. This should be good news for those who follow the world of crazy celebrity fashion and expected a lull between the Golden Globes and the Academy Awards. Admittedly, the SAG awards definitely helped. Jeffrey Sebelia provided us with a rundown of the SAG fashion trends, but mere words cannot do justice to some of these outfits.
The following roundup of last week's movie-celebrity gossip items includes some truly hair-raising photos ... and at least one that you don't want...

Cinematical's SmartGossip: Accidents Will Happen
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, George Clooney, Cinematical's SmartGossip! This week's celebrity news highlights include one car accident and a number of fashion accidents. Is there some phase of the lunar cycle that causes the rich and famous to dress in even more bizarre ways than usual? Is it some sort of astrological incident: when Saturn is retrograde, "upskirt" incidents increase? Perhaps some sort of scientific study could be commissioned, with special examination of Hollywood awards ceremonies. In the meantime, here's the roundup on movie-related gossip from the past week.
- Nicole Kidman was involved in a car crash Wednesday evening during the filming of the movie

Cinematical's SmartGossip: Lohan in Wonderland
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Cinematical's SmartGossip! The big Hollywood gossip this week, considered newsworthy enough even to rise above the post- Golden Globe babble about clothes and parties, is that actress Lindsay Lohan has checked herself into a rehab facility. As Erik Davis reported earlier this week, this means that shooting has been postponed on the film I Know Who Killed Me, in which she was set to play twin sisters. Details on the story abound in the media, from descriptions of Wonderland Center, the rehab facility, to quotes from Lohan's mom being all supportive. Once the news...

Cinematical's SmartGossip: Relationship News Abounds
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Cinematical's SmartGossip! It's certainly a big week for celebrity relationship news -- break-ups, new loves, marriage, babies -- fortunately not all from the same person. (Well, we are talking about Hollywood; it could all have been the same person, or at least two people.) Let's just jump right in and see who's been doing what, and with whom:
- Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake announced their break-up this week. Meanwhile, Diaz was spotted at a Courteney Cox look-alike contest the People's Choice Awards in a truly dreadful dress. Break-ups can do terrible things to your dress sense.
- Hilary Swank is...

Cinematical's SmartGossip: We Need New Trainwrecks
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Cinematical's SmartGossip! I don't want to talk about Britney Spears this week. Personally, I've read more than enough newsabout her, and she barely qualifies as a film-related personality, anyway. I don't want to deal with Anna Nicole Smith either, at least until her daughter's paternity test comes back ... and even then, I'm on overload. And Rosie O'Donnell? I'm trying to ignore that whole thing with Donald Trump, which doesn't even make sense.
Unfortunately, it's a slow gossip week without the above-named celebrities. I realized at some point that if I am reporting items on Mary-Kate Olsen's boots and Charlton...

Cinematical's SmartGossip: How Celebs Spent Their Holidays
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Cinematical's SmartGossip! Haven't you always wondered if celebrities have more fun at Christmas or other holidays? Does George Clooney have to exclaim with delight when a great-aunt gives him a package of gray socks? Can you imagine Johnny Depp's kids giving him a garish necktie that requires all his powers of acting to look delighted about? Does Britney Spears' mom demand that she go back into the bedroom and not come out again until she's dressed like a proper young lady?
I have to admit that normally I don't wonder about any of these things, because...

Cinematical's SmartGossip: Just Another Week for Celebs
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Cinematical's SmartGossip! It's that festive holiday time of year, and somehow this makes it difficult for me to focus on the usual types of gossip tidbits as much as I normally might. And you know I am not all that focused to begin with. I stare at a photo of Mel Gibson with food on his shirt, and wonder, "Why should I care about this?" as my mind wanders off to thoughts about whether I need to buy more gift wrap. Besides, I am sometimes a messy eater too, so I can't really pick on Mr. Gibson. And I can't think of anything the...

Cinematical's SmartGossip: Scary Photo Week
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, Angelina Jolie, Cinematical's SmartGossip! It's a slow news week for film-related celebrities. The big gossip item this week was about Nicole Richie's DUI arrest, and I can't count her as a movie actress -- she doesn't even have a House of Wax credit to her name. No one is divorcing, or adopting children from other countries (although Angelina Jolie is thinking about it again), or forgetting to climb into a limo properly while neglecting to wear underpants.
However, I feel lucky because I have been able to indulge my most guilty pleasure when collecting celebrity news: scary photos....

Cinematical's SmartGossip: Nursing the Gossip Hangover
Filed under: RumorMonger, Celebrities and Controversy, Newsstand, Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Cinematical's SmartGossip! After all that fuss about Britney Spears and her undergarment choices (or lack thereof) last week, plus the Danny DeVito thing and the Michael Richards thing and whatever other celebrity news I've managed to banish from my head, I feel as though I have a gossip hangover. My eyes glaze over when I read about Andy Dick getting offensive in his stand-up comedy routine and I cannot possibly be persuaded to care. Snoop Dogg's arraignment delayed? Yawn. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes throwing a big...

Cinematical SmartGossip: Britney Needs Etiquette Help
Filed under: RumorMonger, Newsstand, George Clooney, Cinematical's SmartGossip! Usually on Cinematical, when we talk about "exhibition" we are referring to the business of theaters showing movies. We are not referring to celebrities showing ... things we might prefer not to see. However, the recurring story that is buzzing all over the universe of celebrity gossip has to do with Britney Spears continually going out on the town in short skirts and nothing underneath, and then doing what is becoming known as an "upskirt," which simply means she forgot all those lessons from older female relatives about sitting in a ladylike and modest fashion. I...
