"Tropic Thunder" steals the show at MTV Movie Awards

As promised, here is the longer version of the "Tropic Thunder" viral video that aired on the "MTV Movie Awards." Totally hilarious! :D



The guys also made an appearance last night, presenting the Best Movie award.




Every picture I see of them just makes me want to laugh. They are like the new Three Stooges, only even wonkier and stranger. I mean, Jack Black looks like a turnip that just exploded here.


Oh yeah, I almost forgot to mention, "Iron Man" won Best Summer Movie So Far. Woohoo! Man, RDJ is just très cool these days...!

David Cook won American Idol!

YAY!!! :)

Congrats to Tang Wei!

Congrats to Tang Wei 湯唯 for winning the 2008 Chopard Trophy at Cannes, awarded each year to actors on the rise. Considering that she has been virtually blacklisted in China for her work (nudity, portraying traitors, all big no-nos in the eyes of the Communist government), this is certainly a bright spot in her young career.

I actually very much enjoyed her performance in "Lust, Caution," so although I haven't seen any of her other work, I look forward to seeing more.


And despite the devastating earthquake in China, she still showed her support when she won her award.

"Thanks Chopard for this award. It's an honor for a new actress to be recognized. This means a lot to me. I'm grateful to be here. At the same time my heart is with the people affected by the Sichuan earthquake. I would like to thank everybody for the immediate and continuous support to the disaster in China and in other disasters around the world. Also, I wish to say a special thank you to Chopard and Roberto Cavalli for the personal donation to aid in the earthquake recovery. Thank you for this honor again."

In case you're wondering, not only did she thank Roberto Cavalli, but she was also wearing his design. And she was wearing Chopard jewels! Sneaky, sneaky!

Congrats to Kate Tsui!

Congrats to Kate Tsui for winning the Best Newcomer Award at the Hong Kong Film Awards yesterday. The HK Film Awards are their version of the Oscars, so to win this so early on in her career is quite exemplary. Kate is a former Miss Hong Kong, and one of my faves on TVB. She is beautiful, but has portrayed everything from being a punk to a tomboy, and normally doesn't play the sweet gorgeous girl that would be easy to cast her in. (My brother always maintained that she was hot, even when they made her dress like a boy with no make-up on, and he had no idea she was in pageants. Guess he has an "eye?")


I have not seen this movie, Eye in the Sky, but it's supposed to be a dark cop thriller (can there be any other genre coming out of HK?). I have skimmed enough reviews to want to check it out, if only to see what led to Kate winning such a prestigious award.

Kate posed in front of her own movie poster - how funny!

Does anyone know what's going on with her dress? The weird embroidered coils of white on top of the textured black are like a strange, crocheted version of couture. Luckily, she is definitely beautiful enough to carry it off!

UPDATE: Dress is by Fendi. See the runway version here. It seems like Fendi had a case of the circles in their entire spring line...
