Blake Lively and Chace Crawford were on the NYC set of Gossip Girl today alongside Penn Badgley, Jessica Szohr, and Taylor Momsen.

If nothing else, this story is great fodder for the late-night monologues.

DS Icon: Treguard

1 hour ago | digitalspy | See recent digitalspy news »

Running between 1987 and 1994 on ITV, Knightmare was a bizarre mix of early computer-generation and hand-drawn fantasy animation based in a world of dungeons and dragons. The main lure of the show was not the prospect of watching young kids waddling around for 30 minutes with a silly mask (the infamous helmet of justice) blinding them from danger, but rather the dominating and mysterious figure of Treguard of Dunshelm, played by experienced thesp Hugo Myatt. Treguard's job was to assist the kids (known as dungeoneers) as they trapsed through levels of dodgy bluescreen animation, (more) »

NBC is reportedly planning to move Jay Leno back to his old 11:35 p.m. slot and start "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" later in the evening.

Jay Leno Jokes About Cancellation Rumors

4 hours ago | TheInsider.com | See recent The Insider news »

NBC has denied rumors that "The Jay Leno Show" was cancelled, but that didn't stop the funnyman from joking about the situation during his monologue Thursday night. "As you may have heard, there's a rumor floating around that we were cancelled," Leno said. "I heard it coming in this morning on the radio. So far, nobody's said anything to me." "If we did get cancelled, it would give us time to maybe do some traveling. In fact, I understand Fox is beautiful this time of year," he cracked. "I don't think there is any truth to the rumors. See, it's always been my experience that NBC only cancels you when you're in first place, so we're fine!" he joked. He then posed a riddle to band leader Kevin Eubanks: "What does NBC stand for? … Never Believe your Contract."

Sharon Stone: Meryl Streep "Looks Like An Unmade Bed"

4 hours ago | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »

Sharon Stone, 51, has some choice words for Meryl Streep, 60, in the new issue of Tatler magazine, saying the "It's Complicated" star gets so much work at least in part because Streep looks "like an unmade bed" and is "because she looks like a woman we can all relate to." Stone was most recently seen in "Basic Instinct 2" and "Bobby" in 2006 and talking about her "good friend" the Dalai Lama" in 2008. "I think that's why Meryl Streep is working so much, because she looks like a woman we can all relate to," Stone tells Tatler. "I look at her and I think, 'I'm chasing my kids, I've moved my parents in with me, I'm coping with food spills - that looks like me in real life'. "Meryl looks like an unmade bed, and that's what I look like. To me, »

Jolie's A Blonde

Angelina Jolie is really a blonde, and has been dying her hair dark since she was four years old.

The actress claims her late mother Marcheline Bertrand started the trend because she didn't like the colour of Jolie's locks.

And the 34 year old has been reaching for the dye ever since.

Jolie tells German magazine Das Neue, "My natural colour is dark blonde. But when I was four or five, my mother dyed my hair dark brown, and she decided to keep it that way. And I stuck with that." »

Dafoe Was Fired From Heaven's Gate Cock Fighting Role

6 hours ago | WENN | See recent WENN news »

Spider-man star Willem Dafoe was fired from famous flop Heaven's Gate - for laughing at an extra's joke.

After playing an uncredited cock fighter in the 1980 Michael Cimino film, the actor upset the director by chuckling during a quiet tense scene and he was asked to leave the set.

He recalls, "I'm still in the movie because I was the cock fighter. That was one of the things I did; I worked for Jeff Bridges' character in the story.

"I was there for three months and I worked a lot. It was the kind of thing where you were hired to play an unscripted character and then they developed these smaller characters. I had scenes and everything and was really enjoying it and then one day we were doing a lighting set-up for a long time; basically eight hours standing in place, and a woman told me a joke in my ear and I laughed at a moment of silence.

"Cimino turned around and said, 'Willem step out,' and that was that. I was the lamb for sacrifice."

Dafoe has since confronted The Deer Hunter director and reminded him of the moment he was fired, but the moviemaker has no recollection of the incident.

Dafoe tells WENN, "He doesn't quite acknowledge it, but that's what happened. It was quite a lesson because that was the first studio movie I had ever been involved in, so it was quite an eye-opener. I thought, 'Wow, what a rough world!'"

But Dafoe dodged a bullet - his name isn't among the credits in a film that has become a punchline in movie industry jokes. The flop closed a studio and largely cost Cimino his reputation. »
