Hot:
Will Ferrell Basketball Stunt
Wednesday night was an interesting night for LA Lakers fans who got to see Will Ferrell hit a cheerleader in the face with a basketball during halftime. Subsequently the actor was pulled off the court by security. Do not worry; this is not another story about a celebrity going crazy.
In fact, Ferrell was shooting a scene for an upcoming movie during halftime at the Lakers game, the film, also starring Mark Wahlberg is entitled “Daddy’s Home.” Despite press explaining the stunt was a planned scene shoot, social media sites have been overwhelmed by videos of the incident.
Not:
Nicholas Cage
Can Nic Cage just stop? Please? Seriously, this guy is starting to get more annoying than I could ever have imagined and I really hate most of his acting career.
Cage has now been cast in an upcoming film in which he will portray an ex-con traveling overseas to capture Osama bin Laden. The film is to be directed by Larry Charles – director of “Borat” and numerous “Seinfeld” episodes. The hope is that the film will be funny on purpose. I hope it is, but like a lot of Cage’s work it will more than likely be funny because we will again be observing Nic Cage trying to act.
