As mentioned last week, Pipsqueak made the final three on the shortlist for the Green Lantern. The role, confirmed on Friday, eventually went to Ryan Reynolds.

Several weeks ago, it was reported that his Shelf Ass Jessica Biel was a finalist for the love interest in the upcoming big budget Thor directed by Kenneth Branagh. Word is they had practically confirmed her…but today the confirmation actually involved Natalie Portman who has been cast as Jane Foster. Shelfy is always mentioning Natalie Portman – referring to Portman as one of the “top tier” girls who always land the parts.

Once again, Natalie landed the part. And Jessica Biel…

Is still waiting.

Which is why both Shelf and Pip had to make a very public show this weekend, seen here leaving the Hollywood Bowl, not appearing to be bothered at all by the presence of the paps shooting them after watching Ray LaMontagne, Jenny Lewis and Blitzen Trapper perform.

Shelf can barely contain her smug. Like it was totally necessary for them to walk out of the place arm in arm.

As for his ongoing professional aspirations – Justin Timberlake will keep trying to be an actor. Just like Madonna kept trying. He will have his Swept Away. I almost can’t wait.
