Jennifer Aniston Explains The Risque Truth Behind Her 'Horrible Bosses 2' Necklace

0
0
Well, this got out of hand fast.

Jennifer Aniston's "Horrible Bosses 2" character is known to wear some provocative outfits, and Conan O'Brien just found out that's a huge understatement. While asking Aniston about a peculiar necklace she wore in the film, O'Brien learned it was actually a super-kinky sex toy. Even more shocking, O'Brien's sidekick, Andy Richter, seems to know a little too much about it.

"Now, I'm just scared," said O'Brien, which pretty much sums this up perfectly.

"Conan" airs weeknights at 11:00 p.m. ET on TBS.

These Are Our Favorite Random Grammy Nominees

You crazy for this one, Grammys! Every year, we're treated to a list of Grammy nominees that sometimes make sense -- Beyoncé! Sam Smith! -- but often totally misses the mark (acts who have been recording for years are cited among the year's Best New Artists). This year, we took a close look at those "honored" to find the most random nominees. It's not that some of these folks don't deserve recognition -- hell yeah, Makonnen! --but we're actually surprised the Recording Academy acknowledged them too. Come Grammy night, we'd love to be shouting "You get a Grammy! And you get a Grammy!" to Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Wiz Khalifa, James Franco and the folks behind the "Guardians of the Galaxy" soundtrack, because sure, why the hell not?

Bill Cosby's Star On The Walk Of Fame Vandalized With The Word 'Rapist'

Bill Cosby's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame was vandalized with the word "rapist," written several times in purple marker.

FOX 26 was the first to report on the status of the star, located in front of 6930 Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, after a viewer sent in a photo.

The star was defaced amid multiple allegations of sexual assault against Cosby.

The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce told Variety it plans to have the star restored:

The Hollywood Walk of Fame is an institution celebrating the positive contributions of the inductees. When people are unhappy with one of our honorees, we would hope that they would project their anger in more positive ways then to vandalize a California State landmark. The star is being cleaned up at this time.

'Sex And The City' Writer Liz Tuccillo Didn't Think Carrie Should End Up With Big

"Sex and the City" fans were elated to see Carrie Bradshaw, their heroine of six seasons, finally secure the elusive heart of longtime love Mr. Big. But in the show's writers' room, the verdict was mixed.

Liz Tuccillo, a writer for the show's last two seasons, told HuffPost Live that she remembers well when the series showrunner Michael Patrick King came to the writers to start the discussion about how to end the series.

"Michael Patrick King was like, 'Let's talk about if they should stay together in the end,'" the "Take Care" director recalled. "We were all, like, fighting and arguing, and I was actually somebody who didn't think she should be with Big in the end."

But according to Tuccillo, the plan for Carrie to end up with Big was likely in place from the start.

"The truth is, I think Michael Patrick King always knew they were going to be together and was just being very generous as a showrunner," she explained.

King penned the final two episodes -- in addition to the subsequent two films -- and years later, Tuccillo agrees with his choice.

"Now I'm happy they stayed together," she affirmed.

David Hyde Pierce Sounds Off On The 'Domino Effect' Of Gay Marriage With Larry King

"Frasier" star David Hyde Pierce sounded off on the "domino effect" of same-sex marriage in the U.S. as part of a new interview with Larry King.

"It's kind of hypocritical to say, 'Oh, I love you dearly, you're my best friend. Would I let you marry the person you love? Well, sorry, no,'" Pierce, who came out to the media in 2007, told King. "Those conversations used to happen a lot, and they happen less and less now."

He went on to note, "It just seems more important to let people live their lives. It seems, in a way, more American."

Pierce, who can be seen on "The Good Wife," has been married to his husband Brian Hargrove since 2008.

He's slated to direct the new musical "It Shoulda Been You," starring Tyne Daly, Sierra Boggess and David Burtka, on Broadway next spring.

Patton Oswalt On Bill Cosby: 'It's Just Going To Get Worse'

0

After Hannibal Buress unintentionally sparked a national conversation about Bill Cosby, other comedians are beginning to speak out about the sexual assault allegations that continue to emerge about the comedy legend.

Comedian Patton Oswalt has let his thoughts on the matter be known on Twitter, and on Friday he told The Huffington Post over the phone that he doesn't think there will be an end to the accusations anytime soon.

“I think it's just going to get worse and worse. I don’t think it’s going to get better," Oswalt said. "People say, ‘Oh you’re just attacking Cosby,’ and I’m like no -- I could not want anything less to be true than this Cosby shit -- but holy fuck, it’s so goddamn overwhelming. I don’t want it to be fucking true but it’s ridiculous!"

So far over 20 women have accused Cosby of assaulting them. Whether the allegations are true or not, Oswalt says "There’s no satisfying ending for us at this point."

During a recent interview with Pete Holmes on his podcast, "You Made It Weird," Oswalt imagined Cosby's post-allegations future as a form of "luxurious exile," comparing it to George W. Bush's retirement.

"Everything is being taken away from him, but at the worst, he lives in comfy seclusion for the last years of his life,” he said. "It's like when George W. Bush finally left office. It was like, 'Guys, you're not going to get your Nixon ending here.'"

In November, Cosby's lawyer Martin Singer released a statement saying that he would not comment on the allegations, but in a later statement dismissed the recent claims as "ridiculous" and "illogical."

"The new, never-before-heard claims from women who have come forward in the past two weeks with unsubstantiated, fantastical stories about things they say occurred 30, 40, or even 50 years ago have escalated far past the point of absurdity," he wrote.

Earlier this week, Cosby broke his silence to thank his defenders on Twitter. Most recently, his lawyer is counter-suing a woman who accused Cosby of sexual battery in 1974 with claims that she tried to extort money from the comedian before the filing of her lawsuit. Cosby's upcoming New York tour dates have been canceled, but he is scheduled to perform in Ontario in January.

Watch The 'Boy Meets World' Cast Reunite On 'Girl Meets World'

Boy. Meets. Reunion.

It was the moment we've been waiting for all season on "Girl Meets World," Cory, Shawn and Topanga were finally back together again. On Friday's episode, "Girl Meets Home for the Holidays," Shawn (Rider Strong) finally made his much-anticipated appearance along with Mr. and Mrs. Matthews (William Russ and Betsy Randle) and Cory's younger brother Joshua (Uriah Shelton).

In the episode, we learn why Shawn has been gone this whole time. He apparently felt left out after Cory's daughter Riley (Rowan Blanchard) was born, so he left the city. Shawn clearly has an uncomfortable relationship with the girl, but in classic "Boy Meets World" ... er ... "Girl Meets World" fashion, it all works out in the end.

In reality, this episode could've literally been about anything and it wouldn't have mattered because we all just wanted to see Shawn and Cory back together again. It happened, and it was awesome.

The best part is "Girl Meets World" isn't done yet. The writers of the show have confirmed that Shawn, Eric Matthews and Mr. Feeny are all going to be an important part of Season 2. The episode featuring Eric's return is called "Girl Meets Mr. Squirrels," but it might as well be "Girl Breaks The Internet Forever."

Andre 3000 Reveals He Never Wanted To Do Outkast Reunion Tour

There's a reason Andre Benjamin, best known under his stage name Andre 3000, wore 47 custom jumpsuits during this summer's Outkast reunion tour.

In a recent interview with The Fader, Benjamin revealed that the jumpsuits, which are currently being shown in an exhibit at Art Basel in Miami, were his way of expressing his feelings about the hip-hop duo's 20th anniversary tour. "Honestly—I didn't wanna do the tour," Benjamin said.

The rapper may have reunited with Outkast partner Big Boi for the first time onstage in 10 years, but he wasn't excited about the music. "I'm like, how am I gonna present these songs? I don't have nothing new to say," Benjamin told the magazine. To add something fresh to his performances, Benjamin said that he came up with the idea to create jumpsuits with unique slogans on them. "It became a theme where I was more excited about this than the actual show," he said.

But overall, the rapper still feels that he let his fans down and is doing the Art Basel exhibit to make up for it in a way. "I felt like a sell-out, honestly," Benjamin said. "So I was like, if I'm in on the joke, I'll feel cool about it."

A film by Greg Brunkalla titled "Trumpets" is also playing alongside Benjamin's exhibit. It will project the quotes from the suits along with images to provide further commentary.

Nicki Minaj is set to perform on "Saturday Night Live" this week, and she's so excited that she decided to share two selfies with fans.

The rapper posted two rather revealing photos to her Instagram on Friday night during "SNL" rehearsals. Wearing a plunging blue lace top, Minaj smiled in one photo with the caption, "SNL REHEARSALS R GIVING ME LIFE. WATCH TMRW." In the second Minaj looks a little more serious, and, as some other sites noted, she came rather close to a wardrobe malfunction.

Here's The First Trailer For Lifetime's Whitney Houston Biopic

0

The first trailer for Lifetime's Whitney Houston biopic is finally here, and it looks pretty promising.

"Whitney," which is Oscar-nominated actress Angela Bassett's directorial debut, will follow the life story of the singer, focusing on her tumultuous relationship with Bobby Brown. The music legend will be played by Yaya DaCosta, who has appeared in "Lee Daniels' The Butler," "House" and "Ugly Betty."

Recent criticisms from Houston's family have brought attention to the biopic. Back in July, the singer's mother Cissy Houston told "Entertainment Tonight" that the family was "exhausted by the continuing misinformation and comments." Despite the fact that Bassett had a personal relationship with Houston when they worked on the 1995 film "Waiting to Exhale," Cissy Houston said, "No one connected with this movie knew Whitney or anything about her relationship with Bobby."

On HuffPost Live back in October, Bassett responded to the film's criticisms. While the actress admitted that she didn't know the singer very intimately, she said she knows "a little about being in the spotlight, a little about celebrity and its demands."

"I know about being a woman, about being a black woman that came up in a little hometown," Basset said. We just hope it's better than Lifetime's Aaliyah biopic.

"Whitney" premieres on Jan. 17 at 8:00 p.m. ET on Lifetime.
