EOnline Scoop: Kevin Connolly and Emmanuelle Chriqui to continue Entourage romance!

lainiek — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 10:31:31 GMT

Adrian Grenier's day wasn't done once he finished shooting the Emmy-nominated show Entourage yesterday. The actor had a party to host at new Hollywood hot spot the Kress. While Grenier came to the Absolut Los Angeles launch party without girlfriend Isabel Lucas in tow, costar Kevin Connolly dished that his onscreen love interest Sloane (aka Emmanuelle Chriqui) is back in the picture this season. "She's back and forth," Connolly told E! News. "E [his character] can't seem to get rid of her...I wonder why!" Emmanuelle's not the only hottie Connolly gets to share the screen with. In his new movie He's Just Not That Into You, he got to lock lips with Drew Barrymore, Scarlett Johansson and Ginnifer Goodwin. But apparently, it's not as awesome it sounds. "I was a nervous wreck," Connolly confessed of the makeout scenes. "I block it out!" Inside the soiree, Adrian and Kevin caught up with Jaime Pressly, who had a guest spot in the first season of their show. Lauren Conrad and Lauren Bosworth slipped into the bash unnoticed through the back entrance, but left after a quick lap. L.C. was later spotted in a corner booth at Crown Bar, but alas, no Hills cameras were in sight. http://www.eonline.com/uberblog/hwood_party_girl/b147772_entourage_parties_kress.html

Kevin Connolly to join Celebrity Survivor, while Kyra Sedgwick avoids Reality Island?

lainiek — Tue, 22 Jul 2008 23:08:23 GMT

Which star wants to be the next Survivor? Posted Jul 22nd 2008 1:20PM by Kona Gallagher Filed under: Other Reality Shows, The Amazing Race, Survivor, Celebrities, Project Runway, Dancing With The Stars Everybody who watches reality shows, especially reality competition shows, does it: you wonder how well you would fare if put in the same situation. I really don't have the talent to be on a Project Runway-type show, or the ability to eat gross crap that you need to make it on Survivor, but I think I could hang on The Amazing Race for a while. I don't think I'd win or anything, because I would definitely be the one who constantly has meltdowns over obstinate camels and whatnot, but I don't think I'd be eliminated first, either. I can't cook much more than pasta, but I'm also pretty sure that if I were on Hell's Kitchen, at the very least, I wouldn't make Gordon Ramsay vomit like Matt did. AOL asked a bunch of celebrities what reality shows they would tackle if given the chance. While most of the answers sounded more like desperate pleas for a job, others were annoying and some were just kind of hilariously misguided. Check out some of the answers after the jump. Kyra Sedgwick, whom I adore on The Closer, takes the prize for most annoying answer, because she's just too good to even watch reality shows, much less deign to appear on one, so she suggests her own, "How about something like 'The World Peace Reality Show,' where everyone goes around and tries to create peace in different countries?" Ugh. Unsurprisingly, a lot of C and D-list celebs want to be on Dancing with the Stars, because that would actually get them steady work. Antonio Sabato Jr. and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air's Alfonso Ribeiro had the best reasoning for not actually being on the show though. Sabato says that he totally could have owned DWTS, had his inner circus freak not won out, "The producers actually came to me about being on the show, but I ended up picking Celebrity Circus because it was even more interesting to me." Because it makes total sense to choose a show that airs in the dead of summer to about four viewers instead of a reality juggernaut. Alfonso Ribeiro, on the other hand, is just too damn good to even be allowed on the show, saying, "it can't happen because they consider me semi-professional." Yes, that's why they're not returning your calls. While some of the other celebrities choose "classy" competition shows like Top Chef, Entourage's Kevin Connolly would like to give Survivor a shot. Although, it seems as though he would be as terrible at it as I would, saying, "I don't know if I would eat bugs, though. I think I would rather eat my own arm." Just wait until they break out the rats; you'll be praying for a nice grasshopper snack. If you could be on a reality show, which one would you choose? Would you even bother with the competition shows, or would you just head straight for The Real World house with a crate of vodka? http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/07/22/which-star-wants-to-be-the-next-survivor/

Kevin Connolly, Alyssa Milano, and America's Next Top Models attend the "33 Club Party" presented by MLB.com at Roseland Ballroom in NYC July 13, 2008

lainiek — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 12:44:38 GMT

33 Club Presents MLB All-Star Celebrity Party Hosted by Alyssa Milano and Joba Chamberlain NEW YORK -- For one night, the Roseland Ballroom near Times Square in Manhattan was transformed into the '33 Club for an All-Star Game party hosted by MLB.com. Roseland, a famous concert venue, was the spot for many celebrities and athletes to be Sunday night. Those at the '33 Club, in reference to the first ever All-Star Game in 1933, were entertained by the likes of Wyclef Jean and DJ Jazzy Jeff, among others. Most of the attendees were baseball fans. DJ Jazzy Jeff, for one, is a native Philadelphian and, thus, a Phillies supporter. But he said there are many Yankees he respects, too. "I like Derek Jeter," he said. "I like A-Rod. I like Bobby Abreu, of course, because he used to be a Phillie." Also walking the red carpet, which included media from Entertainment Tonight and People Magazine, was Wade Boggs, a Hall of Famer and former Yankee who was taking in as much of All-Star Week as he could. "It's a shame that the lights [of Yankee Stadium] go out at the end of the year," Boggs said. "It's a shame that this is it." Earlier in the day, Boggs had participated in the Taco Bell All-Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game. "The one thing that made my day was seeing Whoopi Goldberg and Billy Crystal turn a double play," Boggs said. After Boggs, Bryan Anderson, a catcher in the St. Louis Cardinals' Minor Leagues who had a walk in Sunday's All-Star Futures Game, made his way in. "It's a blast," Anderson said. "I'm just looking forward to the whole experience at Yankee Stadium and enjoying it." Meanwhile, actress Alyssa Milano made her second straight appearance at the MLB.com-sponsored party. A native New Yorker, she said her aunt, cousin and brother were also in town during the All-Star Week's festivities. "It's amazing," Milano said. "I'm a New York girl. It's just great to share something like that with my family." Other notable attendees included Yankees pitcher Joba Chamberlain, who was to co-host the party with Milano, Jaslene Gonzalez, a previous winner of America's Top Model, and actor Ken Davitan from the film "Borat: Cultural Learning of America for Make Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan." Kevin Connolly, a Yankees fan, and NY native, was in attendance as well. Caridee from ANTM was there too. Willie Bans is an associate reporter for MLB.com.

Critics and Guest Stars Go Nuclear in Season 5 of Entourage

lainiek — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 00:49:59 GMT

Originally posted: July 11, 2008 What's next on 'Entourage': Critics (including one familiar face) rip Vinnie's movie When "Entourage" returns September 7, Vinnie Chase's passion project, "Medellin" will get slammed by the critics – including the Chicago Tribune’s film critic, Michael Phillips. You’ll recall that the previous season of the show ended with a disastrous Cannes screening of the film. The Season 5 premiere picks up on that note, and features a scene of Phillips and Richard Roeper, as the hosts of “At the Movies with Ebert and Roeper,” going nuclear on Vinnie’s movie. “It’s basically Roeper ripping into the film, and I have a few lines in there too,” Phillips told me. He and Roeper filmed the scene a few months ago, and Phillips added that he gave his fee for appearing on the show to charity. A Thursday press release from HBO revealed that Carla Gugino will be back as Amanda, an agent who is Ari’s nemesis and Vince’s former love interest. “Gossip Girl” star Leighton Meester, will play Justine Chapin, Vince’s new love interest. Lukas Haas and Giovanni Ribisi will play screenwriters who are managed by Eric (Kevin Connolly). The rapper Bow Wow will play Charlie, another of Eric’s clients. Kevin Pollak and Fran Drescher will play the Levines, “a pretentious Beverly Hills couple,” according to HBO’s release. And – is this something you might be interested in? – Martin Landau will be back as old-school producer Bob Ryan. I particularly enjoy Paul Ben-Victor as studio head Alan Gray, and he’ll be back too. Appearing as themselves on the next season of the show are a slew of actors and Hollywood notables, including Jamie-Lynn Sigler, NBC co-chairman Ben Silverman, the women of “The View,” Tony Bennett, Eric Roberts and also Mark Wahlberg, one of the creators and executive producers of the show. I certainly hope “Entourage” returns rested and rejuvenated after its long break. Last season was, with a few exceptions, a train wreck, with tired, recycled plots and decided lack of energy. If you’re interested in a few clues about the upcoming season, here’s the relevant part of HBO’s press release: “In season five, Vince [Adrian Grenier] must find a way to rejuvenate his career. His best friend and manager Eric is determined to get Vince back to the top, while struggling with his expanding management company. Agent Ari Gold [Jeremy Piven], who is having a few career conflicts of his own, struggles to deliver for Vince, given the current state of things. Drama [Kevin Dillon], meanwhile, continues his successful television career while experiencing problems in his love life, and Turtle [Jerry Ferrara] is forced to reexamine his contribution to it all.” http://featuresblogs.chicagotribune.com/entertainment_tv/2008/07/tca-dispatch-cr.html

Guest Stars Abound, but success is elusive, as Entourage returns to HBO in September 2008

lainiek — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 20:33:28 GMT

Hard Times When 'Entourage' Returns Guest stars abound in fifth season July 10, 2008 The charmed life of Vincent Chase may not be quite so charmed when "Entourage" returns to HBO in September. The series makes its return on Sunday, Sept. 7, a year and five days after the last original episode aired. It will pick up more or less where last season left off, with Vince (Adrian Grenier) and Co. struggling after the disastrous screening of "Medellin" at the Cannes Film Festival. Manager Eric (Kevin Connolly) is trying to get Vince back on top while expanding his own business, Ari (Jeremy Piven) has his own problems at his agency and Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) is wondering where he fits in. The only member of the crew on an upswing is Drama (Kevin Dillon), whose TV career continues to flourish. Per usual, "Entourage" will also feature a parade of guest stars this season. Among those appearing are Bow Wow, Lukas Haas and Giovanni Ribisi as clients of Eric's; "Gossip Girl" star Leighton Meester as Vince's new love interest; and Fran Drescher and Kevin Pollak as an annoying Beverly Hills couple.

Multiple sources confirm to me exclusively that the lovely Jamie-Lynn Sigler (aka Meadow Soprano of HBO's The Sopranos) is coming back to HBO to join up with Entourage for a three-episode arc. Word is, she'll be playing herself and a potential love interest for one of the boys, and the storyline is juicy enough that we can't yet spill any details. (Translation: It's gonna be awesome.) The fifth season of Entourage is currently filming and set to premiere in September. Just another reason to count the minutes till the good TV returns this fall! —Additional reporting by Jennifer Godwin (Side Note from Lainiek: Rumor has it she will play the love interest of Turtle, played by Jerry Ferrara. Kevin Dillon's Drama will be going thru his own breakup this season and Kevin Connolly's Eric Murphy will be dealing with ex Sloan at some point.

Lindsay Lohan, Kevin Connolly, Audrina Patridge, Donna Karan, Nick Cannon and other celebs celebrate the 4th!

lainiek — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 14:14:12 GMT

LOS ANGELES — Lindsay Lohan spent her 4th of July at Malibu’s DKNY Beach House under mama Dina’s watchful eye, and apparently she was less than impressed about it. We’re told a clearly bored and annoyed Linds (sans BFF Samantha Ronson) spent her entire day texting away madly and was in no mood to associate with other party peeps. She reportedly even made it very obvious not to go anywhere near "The Hills" starlets who were at the bash to film their reality show. Speaking of reality shows, it looks as though the 22-year-old actress may be making an appearance in her mom and sis Ali’s E! show "Living Lohan" despite Dina’s claims that it would be a "step back" in her daughter’s career. The Lohan duo were also filming and Li-Lo was reportedly included in some poolside scenes donning a red bikini, but her shrinking frame has again sparked speculation that Linds isn’t looking after herself. "She is so skinny," a Lohan pal told Tarts. "We were all taken aback. You could see her bones." Despite all the drama going on in the DKNY Beach House however, the designer herself was hobnobbing amid a far more sophisticated crowd Michael Jackson’s former manager Sandy Gallin’s Hamptons House party. Donna Karan was spotted in the company of fellow designer Marc Jacobs as well as A-listers like Richard Gere, Brooke Shields, Mary J Blige, Russell Simmons and music mogul LA Reid. It was also a little "Sex in the City" reunion with Sarah-Jessica Parker partying with rocker Jon Bon Jovi, who made a cameo appearance in the second season of the series as Carrie's love interest she met at her shrink's office. But guests at Ron Perelman’s annual Independence Day soiree in the Hamptons on Saturday night were treated to a very sweet surprise - Bon Jovi and John Mellencamp giving a private concert in the tether of the house for the likes of Elle Macpherson, Donny Deutsch, Ivanka Trump, Renee Zellweger and Howard Stern. Fourth of July Ex-Fest The Project Beach House (the other popular party house in Malibu this summer) also attracted a number of in-demand Tinseltown types to its inaugural all day/night affair, although it was quite the awkward reunion of past and present lovers. Kristin Cavallari partied the sunshine away as did her ex-beau Brody Jenner, past rumored romance Sean Stewart and her recent former fling Kevin Connolly. Connolly’s ex Nicky Hilton also attended the affair and was in the company of several of her big sis Paris's ex men including Brody Jenner, Stavros Niarchos and David Faustino. The normally shy J.C. Chasez was quite confident in pulling some gyrating dance moves, well that was before Tara Reid (who he was once romantically linked to) entered the premises. Chasez’s other leading lady Camille Guaty was also present and Audrina Patridge popped by alongside her sometimes boyfriend Bobby Campo. Small world! (pics from this event posted on theinsider.com) Ashley Dupre Won’t Go Wild on Joe Francis Eliot Spitzer's infamous call girl Ashley Dupre was scheduled to be questioned in a legal deposition last week regarding her $10 million lawsuit against "Girls Gone Wild" CEO Joe Francis over claims he "ruined her reputation" by exposing videos she made for the company back in 2003. But instead Dupre dropped the suit altogether. Francis announced that the now 23-year-old had volunteered to perform for the Girls Gone Wild cameras and provided both a verbal and written release for the company to use the footage. But because Dupre had offered false identification and lied about her age on camera (she was only 17) the company declined to publish the material. "The filing of the lawsuit was a serious lapse of judgment on her part," Francis said in a statement. "I don't understand how I could possibly damage the reputation of a hooker." Cannon Spins Without Carey, Christian Audigier Doesn't Deliver? Celebrity DJ/Mr. Mariah Carey Nick Cannon had the party pumping until the early hours last Friday for the 4th of July grand opening of Christian Audigier: The Nightclub at Sin City's Treasure Island. Despite speculation that Mariah may come to support her hubby, Cannon spun solo after announcing to People magazine on the red-carpet that "married life is good". But even though Ed Hardy designer Audigier was reveling in the limelight, the star-studded turn-out was slightly disappointing compared to his recent 50th Birthday bash which attracted the likes of Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Fergie, Snoop Dogg and Mena Suvari. Despite all the hype leading up to the event, the only notable Hollywood hotties hanging in the skull-themed party place were Bai Ling and Jaime Pressly. George Clooney’s former flame Sarah Larson was another "celebrity" tipped to attend but she was a no show - that fifteen minutes is obviously still going strong. Jessica Alba’s Pops Pregnancy Pounds Looking at Jessica Alba now, it is hard to imagine that a month ago she was pregnant and an estimated 25 pounds heavier than before she was knocked up. The "Love Guru" starlet and hubby Cash Warren spent a relaxing weekend strolling through Beverly Hills, and Jess looked surprisingly small in her strappy pink summer dress. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,376903,00.html
