Well, Brad, I’m no expert on societal norms, but I think it has something to do with loins. Incredibly beautiful loins. Loins whose hotness has been dangled in front of us for decades.

John Mayer Gets “You Look Like Pete Wentz” All the Time (He Likes It!)
Hi, everybody! I’m John Mayer, but you can call me Mr. Aniston. I know what you’re thinking — I look like Pete Wentz. Or a Madden brother, which by the way, I TOTALLY hear that and think it’s, like, the second-best compliment ever. The best, BEST compliment would be if you reckoned me a Brad Pitt doppelganger. Woot! (Look, jerks, I’m working on the mustache, LAY OFF.) But wanna hear my dilemma, paparazzi, aka My Go-To Sounding Board? I *think* I might look like the punchline of a J

National Board of Review Makes 'Slumdog' 1-For-1 in Best Picture Race [Awards"]
Our ongoing Pop Culture Doomsday stroked the infant cheek of awards season this morning when the hooded, cloaked cultists at National Board of Review anointed Slumdog Millionaire as their Best Picture pick for 2008.

David Fincher won his first directing award of the season for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, but the

The eventual 2006 film was created with a smaller budget and different stars. T
