If Emmy Rossum acts alongside Robert Pattinson, do you think she'll have that much fun as she did at the time during "The Day After Tomorrow" with Jake?Robert Pattinson with Shannon Woodward, she's one of his LA friends and she's dating Robert's friend Andrew Garfield.
"Has the sun finally set on Robert Pattinson's New Moon filming?

The actor was spotted in Los Angeles yesterday, first visiting a Venice, Ca. recording studio (on the heels of actress Emmy Rossum), then dinner in West Hollywood.

RadarOnline.com spied Pattinson wining and dining for two hours at Palihouse, alongside director Allen Coulter, who will helm Pattinson's next film Remember Me.

Pattinson was in great spirits, an onlooker tells us, donning jeans and a black hoodie. The on-screen vampire chainsmoked and laughed with Coulter and two other pals before shaking hands and heading off to his room".

Wonderwall gossip site

"WONDERWALL, the recently launched celebrity gossip website, is a picture-filled scrolling wall that moves left to right instead of up and down the screen.

That’s not its only innovation – it doesn’t do sarcasm. It dispenses celebrity news and video with none of the acid wit found in much of the star coverage on the web.

Currently, there’s a piece on Hollywood’s love of blonde/brunette girl pairings, and a look at the “smooching, hand-holding and
all-around cuddliness” of Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal. Another item covers Keanu Reeves’s starring role in a new retelling of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. Instead of the mean punchline (perhaps when he takes the potion he gains the ability to act), the piece ends on: “Universal is keeping the plot under wraps.”

Homosexual characters and gay rumours


"Twilight actor Robert Pattison, is playing surrealist artist Salvador Dali in a upcoming film called Little Ashes. The film which was shot before Twilight came out, looks at the painter's early life and specifically the period in the early 1920s when he was involved with the poet Federico García Lorca.Dali himself denied the pair had a sexual relationship, saying, "[Lorca] was homosexual, as everyone knows, and madly in love with me...I was extremely annoyed, because I wasn’t homosexual, and I wasn’t interested in giving in." However, the film doesn't buy this and portrays the men as lovers."In the film there’s all these gay sex scenes. And y’know, I haven’t even done a sex scene with a girl, in my whole career. And here I am, with Javier [Beltrán], who plays Lorca, doing an extremely hard-core sex scene, where I have a nervous breakdown afterward. And because we’re both straight, what we were doing seemed kind of ridiculous.” Source: gayteens.about.com

"As such, the movie has been applauded for taking homosexual love seriously: Brokeback Mountain does not relegate the love of gay characters to the margins of a film but rather argues that their love is a subject appropriate for a grand narrative. Certainly a movie that will carve into our collective minds the thought that love between two men can be as painful and meaningful as that between a man and a woman is sorely needed. However, we should be attentive to the characters to which the cinema has privileged this story line: two men who in all appearances are, essentially, straight. Brokeback Mountain may have managed to get audiences to fall in love with the romance of Jack and Ennis, but it does so by cleansing the lovers of any characteristics that would signify, in our Western society, that they are gay". Source: www.oxonianreview.org

"His movie-industry parents put things on hold for school and university, but he re-emerged in 2001 and played a run of
sensitive, complicated loners in Donnie Darko (2001), Lovely & Amazing (2001) and The Good Girl (2002). These last two characters were involved with an older woman, which gave him an earnest toy-boy allure. Now, he's a gay icon - he made the cover of the serious-minded gay monthly The Advocate for both recent films. If his allure can be attributed to lovelorn idealism in Brokeback, it's partly about being eye-candy in Jarhead. And military barracks, even in a film with political points to make, are not a million miles from a standard gay-porn set-up."I'm cool about it," Gyllenhaal says. "I'm not into guys sexually, as far as I know. But my parents were very accepting. I had gay babysitters". Source: www.smh.com.au


"Sacha Baron Cohen found out that blonds don’t have more fun – after a body hair bleaching experience went awry! According to Britain’s The Sun, the actor, who is known to go the extra mile for his over-the-top characters, attempted to bleach all his body hair for the upcoming mockumentary “Bruno” movie, where he plays a gay Austrian fashionista.
“Sacha is committed to as much realism as he can muster in his films. He’d heard that all-over hairlessness is a popular trend in the gay community, so he thought he’d bleach all his hair so it looked invisible”. Source: www.accesshollywood.com
In the clip, he says, “I’m like the Austrian Zac Efron. Except I’m two years younger, and I’ve got a bleached oshtenhalla.”

"Brüno is a “homosexual character claiming to be a reporter from an Austrian television station and interviews unsuspecting guests about topics such as fashion, entertainment, celebrities and homosexuality, with an emphasis on the latter as each interview progresses.” Source: en.wikipedia.org

"It's amazing how somebody's alledged gayness disappears with a letter from a lawyer.

Mr. Culkin has never met Mr. Brunner and certainly has no relationship with him romantically or otherwise. Your site maintains that Mr. Culkin is gay, and as he heretofore publicly stated, he is not". Source: socialitelife.celebuzz.com

"Most of the time celebs accused of batting for the other team don’t go into detail trying to deny it. Not so with Emile Hirsch.

According to WENN, the rampant imagination of a crew member on the set of Speed Racer has fueled speculation into Hirsch’s sexual orientation.WENN reports that Emile had been half stripped and sweaty on a break with costar Kick Gurry when the crew member entered the trailer the actors were in.

Hirsch told the network:

“Me and Kick were in the trailer hanging out. Kick was sitting back with his hands behind his head and I was doing push ups. It was hot so I peeled my driver’s suit down a bit, and then Eric, the wonderfully gay production assistant, walked in. I jumped up really quick, but I was out of breath.

“Eric slammed the door shut. We went to Eric later and tried to explain. He was like, ‘Shhhhh. I will never tell.’”
Oh, Eric … you wish Emile Hirsch was gay".Source: www.thebadandugly.com

"Ewan McGregor and Jim Carrey visited a gay bar together.The pair were seen enjoying 'Martini Tuesday' at Miami's Halo bar this week to research their new movie 'I Love You Phillip Morris', in which they play homosexual lovers.

A source said: "Jim and Ewan looked like they were having a great time. They were laughing and joking and looked as though they were really trying to get into character."

This will not be the first time Ewan has played a gay character.
In 1996 movie 'The Pillow Book' Ewan starred as a bisexual man, and in 1998's 'Velvet Goldmine' he had to film a gay sex scene with 'Batman' star Christian Bale". Source: www.monstersandcritics.com

"Mary (Jena Malone), one of the most Christian young girls at a Baptist High School in Baltimore, likes to talk to her boyfriend Dean (Chad Faust) underwater. She cannot believe her eyes when he mouths, 'I'm gay.' He must be saved and the most obvious way to do that, Mary thinks, is to surrender her virginity. Shortly thereafter, Dean is institutionalized to be deprogrammed and made straight. The Pastor’s son Patrick (Patrick Fugit) has just come to live with his father and is trying to make his dad understand that his marriage is over. Hilary Faye has designs on Patrick who has fallen for Mary. What follows involves much posturing, many misunderstandings, deception, vindictive behavior, and total mayhem. In short, the school is shaken to its very foundation. Soon the labels are flying: queer, unwed mother, divorcee, heathen…" Source: www.chlotrudis.org

Edie Sedgwick and Gerard Malanga,1966.

"Gerard was the person the pretty guy who went out, by the way, he was never gay. He was FAKE gay. You want to be pseudo gay, you can be pseudo gay, but Gerard was never never gay. But Gerard was the person who went out to the girl’s finishing schools, the Madison Avenue, and brought the girls up. Gerard was the person who went out, up to Cornel, and uh, and brought Mary Woronov. To a certain extent Gerard was the person who was the intermediary between Andy’s group of people and the Beat Poets.”
