Will Smith staged 'reality check' dinner for Tyrese Gibson

TRANSFORMERS director MICHAEL BAY called in pal WILL SMITH to share a few words of wisdom with his star TYRESE GIBSON after the actor/singer made a series of errors on the set of his blockbuster.

Gibson refuses to go into detail about what he did to upset the moviemaker, but it led to a tense dinner table showdown with Smith, during which the Men in Black star lectured his protege on how to make it Hollywood.

The Fast & the Furious 6 star tells news show Access Hollywood, "The first dinner that me and Will had, I called it the reality check dinner... I probably ran from the dinner table about 15 times during this conversation because he was dropping such heavy jewels (of wisdom) on me. It was crazy.

Sara Schaefer Blogs 'The Bachelorette': Bring on the Man Tears! (Season 9, Episode 1)

Emmy award-winning comedian Sara Schaefer, host of MTV's late show Nikki & Sara Live, will be blogging The Bachelorette for Hollywood.com all season long.

If you're like me, you've been watching The Bachelor/Bachelorette since the beginning. You can't tear yourself away season after season because, like they tell us in school, it only takes one time to become addicted to cocaine. In this scenario, of course, cocaine is the word "journey," and according to last night's premiere of The Bachelorette, this season is gonna be some gooooood s**t. Sean's fourth-place girlfriend Desiree Hartsock is going to be handing out roses this year and there are so many things to discuss I have decided to organize them in list form. (I wanted to do a PowerPoint but my editor tells me that won't work.)

Tim Curry Reportedly Suffers a Stroke

A prominent presence in Hollywood for four decades and counting, Tim Curry might be most recognizable to you as the duplicitous butler from Clue, the voice of the maniacal smog in Fern Gully, or (most likely) the larger-than-life antihero Frank-N-Furter at the head of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. DailyMail reports that the 67-year-old character actor suffered a str oke on Thursday night at his home in the Los Angeles area.

Kim Kardashian's baby shower: that invitation in full

Lost in Showbiz has a position on baby showers, which is that it basically doesn't do them. In the annals of irksome American cultural imports they easily outstrip little leaguers such as Gwyneth Paltrow or people saying "parsta". You decide to have a baby: you buy that shiz yourself.

Like all my hard and fast rules, though, it would obviously be broken in a heartbeat if it looked like there was a hilarious life experience in it. Consequently, I regard the invitation to Kim Kardashian's baby shower as marginally more covetable than one to Truman Capote's Black and White Ball would have been.

Amanda Bynes: "I Don't Drink or Do Drugs," I Need a Second Nose Job

Without a publicist on her payroll, Amanda Bynes is doing her own damage control. Less than 24 hours after the actress was arrested in New York City, the 27-year-old denied any wrongdoing via Twitter. Bynes was charged with marijuana possession, attempted evidence tampering and reckless endangerment on Friday, May 24.

"I only smoke tobacco I don't drink or do drugs," the Easy A star insisted, attempting to discredit a police report that said she threw a bong out of her apartment window. "I've never had a bong in my life! I need to get another nose job after seeing my mugshot!" (Bynes first revealed she went under the knife via Twitter May 5. "I had a nose job to remove skin that was like a webbing in between my eyes," she explained at the time.)

U.S. CONFIRMS EXISTENCE OF MERMAIDS

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) confirmed that mermaids exist and that they are growing in numbers.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reportedly published a post on their “Ocean Facts” newsfeed titled “Conclusive Evidence of the Existence of Aquatic Humanoids.”

The agency went on to say that “magic females”, who first appeared in cave paintings in the late Paleolithic (Stone Age) period some 30,000 years ag, when modern humans began to sail the seas, do exist and are living in all the oceans of the world.
