Rump Shaker

It looks like Nicole may have her buddy as a cell mate - Paris Hilton could face up to 90-days in jail after violating the terms of her probation. Paris was given probation and had her driving license suspended after not contesting her drink-driving charge from last September. Just days after the sentencing in February, she was pulled over while driving and her car impounded and earlier this week, she was pulled over for a further time after driving along Sunset Boulevard without headlights. She was unaware that her driving license had been suspended but spokesperson for the L.A City Attorney's Office said: "We have sufficient evidence to prove that Hilton had knowledge of the suspension, and yet continued to drive." A hearing has been set for 17 April.




David Duchovny has revealed there will be another X Files film in the works. The actor's series, 'The X Files', was the biggest thing on TV and Duchovny was looking at a bright future. Ten years and a string of ho-hum comedies later, he has told IGN.com that another movie is back in the works. Understandably, Duchovny and creator Chris Carter have been in talks on a second film, after abandoning the project in 2005. No script has been written yet, although no-one has commented as to whether Frank Spotnitz's 2005 script will be drawn upon. Don't think it will be as good, though.


The Pirates Of The Caribbean series is getting a fourth instalment according to reports. 'At World's End', released this summer, was thought to be the third and final Pirates film, but the Los Angeles Times reports lead star Johnny Depp has agreed to star in a fourth film. Producers are said to have kept hold of several key pieces of scenery in case another film is made. Let's hope so.

Real Kwik-E-Marts? 7-Eleven may convert some stores to coincide with 'Simpsons Movie' It appears as though the world's largest convenience store will get Simpsonized, though 7-Eleven Inc. said the deal isn't done yet. Would be cool if the cashiers' name tags are temporary changed to 'Apu'.. [7-11-KwikEmarts]





LOST Season 3 Ep 14 - Exposé
Finally, we are given the background stories of Paulo/Nikki. These are two new characters first seen when Eko was rescued back to the beach. Nikki was seen digging some unknown stuff and she then came running towards Sawyer and Hurley during their ping-pong game. After blabbering "para..lzed", she stopped breathing! A search party consisting of Sawyer, Hurley and Jin came upon a motionless Paulo in the jungle. They were all curious as to how these two died without any marks. After they brought Paulo back to the beach, Sun didn't believe The Others were involved as they were on the other side of the island. Sawyer thought they might be poisoned. Interestingly, when Charlie heard Sun saying if it wasn't The Others then who dragged her across the jungle a few weeks ago, he confessed it was him who did it and that was part of Sawyer's idea to get the guns. Later on Sun told Sawyer about it and didn't want to tell her husband because then they would have to dig another grave! hahaha... She gave him a nice tight slap before walking off. Hurley began his investigation to the murder of Paulo/Nikki and told Sawyer off about throwing away the bottled water evidence which got a "Is there any forensic hatch I didn't know about?". Cool.. While Sawyer told the rest he wanted to do a perimeter sweep, Desmond told Hurley that Nikki was arguing with Sawyer earlier in the morning which made the gang feel suspicious about Sawyer. When he came back, they questioned whether Sawyer killed Paulo/Nikki but it wasn't him and he found the reason why they were in the jungle. It was a pocket sized bag containing diamonds that Nikki was hiding in the soils. The flashbacks were very interesting where Nikki was a B-actress in a show called "Exposé" that ended in fourth season. It looks very V.I.P-ish with Nikki playing a stripper-detective. She had a sugar daddy whose newly appointed chef is Paulo and that old man got poisoned in his house during a meal. Paulo/Nikki then stole a bag of diamonds, ran away from the country by taking the 815 flight. Razzle-dazzle! They met Shannon and Boone at the airport and Nikki told Paulo to promise her not to end up like those bickering 'couple'. After the crash, they befriended Ethan Rom and Nikki got Dr Arzt to draw her a trajectory drawing of the plane where they were led to the secluded lagoon where Kate/Sawyer found the case of guns. Paulo recovered his bag containing nicotine gum, personal stuff and the bag of diamonds. He tried to dig a hole near the seaside but Locke told him that was a bad idea because high tide is coming. Paulo then went to the Pearl station and hid it in the toilet where he spotted Henry Gale and Juliet monitoring Jack (Jules thinks Jack is cute) and talked about their plans to get Jack/Kate/Sawyer through Michael and make Jack perform surgery on him. Paulo also found a walkie talkie. All these revelations were kept secret. Arse! 12 hours before their death, Nikki discovered some nicotine gum left behind by Paulo and later on forced him to give her the diamonds which he refused. Taking out a bottle containing Dr Arzt's Medusa spiders, Nikki threw it at Paulo and stung him which will cause paralysis for about 8 hours. Paulo said the reason why he didn't want her to find those 8 million dollars sparkles was because he was afraid of losing her. While Nikki started to feel emotional, maybe it was due to the pheromones or perhaps from the sound of smoke monster, a couple of other Medusa spiders came towards Nikki and stung her. She then quickly dug some soil to hide the diamonds and came running back to the beach and saying "I'm paralyzed.." It was a very Tales from the Crypt sick twist at the end when they were burying the couple and Nikki suddenly opened up her eyes! They were buried alive! Will they get out of it? Is Locke right? Does nothing on this island stay buried for very long?




The lovely Jenny Frost is three months pregnant with fiance Dominic Thrupp's baby. She writes, "I'm having a Kitten, sorry, baby! Yes that's right me and Dom are going to have a baby and we're absolutely thrilled. I had a scan recently and although I only have a tiny bump it was cart wheeling for the ultrasound. I'm thinking of starting a pregnancy blog, for those of you interested in keeping up to date with my swollen ankles and food cravings I'll do a regular update. We've got names although me and Dom don't agree on them." This leaves only Lil without an upcoming kitten-junior.







Any takers to join him on a tour? Jarvis Cocker is currently hunting for local bands to support him on his North American tour. The singer has posted a message on his MySpace page calling for suggestions regarding potential acts for his shows. He wrote: "We are playing in North America soon & need support bands for New York (2 shows), San Francisco, Seattle and Vancouver - do you think you could help? Same idea as the Europe shows - you recommend LOCAL bands that would be good for the job (preferably with a link to somewhere I can hear their music) & I'll do the rest. It worked a treat before - let's unleash the magic again!" There is gonna be some lucky bands out there for sure.




Ali Larter - Candids With Her Dog (29/03/2007)





The Bourne Ultimatum - First Official Trailer




New Songs:
1) Brett Anderson - Scorpio Rising [mp3]
2) The Honeydrips - (Lack of) Love Will Tear Us Apart [mp3]
3) Black Rebel Motorcycle Club - Window [mp3]

From his new solo album, most of which sounded average but one stood out and this Scorpio track is quite good. Don't know much of Honeydrips but their guy-gal-guy vocals interchanges are simply amazing along with some groovy basslines all throughout. BRMC is back with 'Baby 81' which means another high level of rugged rock 'n' roll tunes especially with 'Window' containing absolutely incredible beats and one of those you want to hear again and again.



Naveen Andrews took home an odd keepsake from the set of 'Grindhouse' - a zombie's testicles. The Anglo-Asian actor plays a fearless zombie-hunting body parts collector in Grindhouse movie Planet Terror and couldn't resist grabbing the undead member when he wrapped his scenes. He says, "My character collects body parts and displays them in glass jars. I kept the balls and gave them to my 15-year-old son. He was thrilled. Now he has a pair of zombie balls in his bedroom." Those freaky boys from the Andrews family..

Evangeline Lilly - Reading while walking like a wondering soul in Hawaii (27/03/2007)




The Beastie Boys are set to show off their musical talents this summer with a string of instrumental festival appearances. The Sabotage hitmakers will open their instrumental tour at the Sasquatch Festival in Washington in May (07), before jetting off to Europe for festival shows in Portugal, Spain, Germany, Turkey, Poland, France and Britain. In a posting on their website, the trio write, "We're gonna play some instrumental only shows also... you know drums, bass, guitar, keyboard, percussion. Better call your doctor 'cause they're gonna be sick. It's gonna be a gala event." Now that is quite something special awaiting the audience.
