Royals Fist Pumpy Hot Harry Team GB has been owning the velodrome. We were watching the men’s sprint yesterday - you know the event where they spend the first few laps mindf-cking each other before actually racing? Ryan Lochte shouldn’t be a cyclist.

Bad Style The Young Bride It’s one of my favourite Hollwood Sliding Doors stories: Natalie Portman was supposed to play Juliet in Baz Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet. They wanted her badly. The problem: she looked much, much too young. So young that in the test footage, it was “obscene”, is the way Luhrmann described By Lainey • Aug 07, 2012 11:18 am

Movie Reviews and Previews When bad movies attack: Total Recall edition Look, it’s not like I expected Total Recall to be good. The 1990 original isn’t really good, but at least it’s fun in that way that bad movies can be.
