Nick Grimshaw on Celebrity Juice ⁰

by Candy • Television

They pretty much tease him about Harry the whole time. The one guy asks if he’s seen his knob (penis, I’m guessing…you crazy Brits). At 4:43, they ask Nick if he ever had a drunken snog with Harry. He says no and looks super awkward and then the dude asks what are you doing with him? He’s a child. And Grimmy says “He’s nineteen!” Around 23:40, they put that creepy ventriloquist mask on Grimmy and the host makes him say all sorts of embarrassing things about Harry like “I miss you, I love you!” Poor Nick. He actually looks a bit embarrassed throughout this whole show.

I didn’t watch this show but I heard about it. Sounds like it was a car accident. Sad. From CBS:

West Virginia authorities say that Shain Gandee, one of the stars of the MTV reality show “Buckwild,” has been found dead, along with his uncle and a third, unidentified person.

Kanawha County Sheriff’s Department Cpl. B.D. Humphreys says the 21-year-old, his uncle David Gandee, 48, and the third man were found Monday near Sissonville.

Authorities had been searching for the men since early Sunday morning. They were last seen around 3 a.m. Sunday at a bar in Sissonville and they told people they were going driving off-road.

Humphreys said state police were getting ready to send out an aviation unit to search for the men when authorities received a call Monday morning that a vehicle was found wrecked in a muddy area a few miles from Gandee’s home in Sissonville, about 15 miles outside of Charleston.

Authorities found the 1984 Ford Bronco that belonged to the Gandee family in a ditch with all three men inside. Humphreys did not provide details on the condition of the vehicle or the bodies. He said no foul play was suspected.

Michael Douglas as Liberace and Matt Damon as his lover for HBO Biopic ⁰

Check out Michael Douglas and Matt Damon as Liberace and Liberace’s sparkly boy Scott Thorson on the cover of Entertaintment Weekly. I’m not sure whether to set the DVR or set a parental control. Michael Douglas’ creepy Liberace smile is scaring me a bit, but Matt wearing lipstick and a sparkly outfit has me intrigued. So does this:

As for their sex scenes together (and trust us, the movie has plenty), Damon and Douglas both say that shooting a moment of passion is always awkward, no matter who’s involved. “The scene where I’m behind him and going at him, we did that in one take,” recalls Damon, laughing. “We do it. Cut. There’s a long pause. And then you just hear Steven go, “Well… I have no notes.”

Khloe Kardashian Gets Axed From X Factor

by Candy • Television

I wanted to like Khloe on the X Factor, I really did. Of all the Kardashians, she seems semi-normal, but she was almost painful to watch. I still don’t understand why they even used her in the first place. Just to have a Kardashian on the show? Why not have Scott Disick host instead? At least you’d get lots of sassy commentary and gif-able moments and a whole lot less awkward. From The New York Post:

The towering reality star has not been asked to return as co-host of the high-profile Fox singing competition, sources tell The Post.

“They are asking Mario [Lopez] to come back, but not Khloe,” an insider confirms.

Kardashian, 28, came to the show with no television hosting experience and often appeared nervous and unprepared on camera.

The Huffington Post went so far as to suggest that the “awkward” pair were secretly being paid off by rival singing show “The Voice.”
