Video interview with Kristen Bell for "Sarah Marshall"
www.comingsoon.net - 9th Apr 2008
Kristen Bell: ComingSoon.net got the chance to hang out with
Kristen Bell ("Heroes") recently at the Turtle Bay Resort in Oahu to talk about her new comedy, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, opening in theaters on April 18. The usually conservative
Bell opened up about what it was like filming an R-rated movie and what her family may think. She even talked about the dirty sex scenes she had to do with
Russell Brand (they had to come up with 15 of the most obnoxious sex positions!) and shooting the opening scenes of the movie with a completely naked
Jason Segel.
In the romantic disaster comedy, struggling musician Peter Bretter (
Segel) has spent six years idolizing his girlfriend, television star Sarah Marshall (
Bell). He's the guy left holding her purse in paparazzi photos and accidentally omitted from acceptance award speeches. But his world is rocked when she dumps him and Peter finds himself alone. After an unsuccessful bout of womanizing and an on-the-job nervous breakdown, he sees that not having Sarah may just ruin his life.
To clear his head, Peter takes an impulsive trip to Oahu, where he is confronted by his worst nightmare: his ex and her tragically hip new British-rocker boyfriend, Aldous (
Brand), are sharing his hotel. But as he torments himself with the reality of Sarah's new life, he finds relief in a flirtation with Rachel (
Mila Kunis), a beautiful resort employee whose laid-back approach tempts him to rejoin the world. He also finds relief in several hundred embarrassing, fruity cocktails.

Jaime Pressly cast in 'I Love You, Man'
Jaime Pressly has corralled a lead role in "I Love You, Man," the DreamWorks comedy starring Paul Rudd and Jason Segel.

Realizing he has no friends, he starts to go on man-dates to find a best man; he finds one in Segel.
Pressly plays the best friend of the fiancee.
What’s the point in replaying a humiliation?
If a match is on television that I’m already aware West Ham United have lost I don’t bother to watch it. What’s the point? The football? What, on their inexorable trudge to defeat the Hammers might do something sexy and skilful? Well that’s great but prior knowledge of an unpleasant result, for me, negates enjoyment. It’s difficult enough to watch West Ham live, when the possibility of victory theoretically exists; remove that and all that remains is masochistic snuff soccer.
Is this the right fertiliser for Grays’ grassroots?
It's all well and good English clubs marauding through Europe winning matches all cocksure and swaggering like it were the barmy ol' days of the empire once more, strutting through the Champions League knocking over tables in piazzas and laughing at Greek fellas wearing national dress but in Blighty the oft-cited yet frequently neglected "grassroots" of the game are being bizarrely mishandled.
I suppose the phrase "grassroots" has caught on as the game is played on a grass surface. I don't much care for th
