Orlando Bloom on Fatherhood: It's "Awesome"

Orlando Bloom on Fatherhood: It's "Awesome"

Orlando Bloom is basking in the glow of fatherhood. The Pirates of the Caribbean star and wife Miranda Kerr welcomed son Flynn in January, and the actor can't help but gush about his new role in life.

Calling his daddy duties "awesome," Bloom, 34, says this is an experience like no other. 

"I love it," he told Hollyscoop at a press junket. "I hate that word but I love being a father; it’s changed everything in so many ways." 

Acknowledging that he could never do it alone, Bloom praised is Victoria's Secret model wife for her mommy know-how. "She's an amazing mother," he said of Kerr, 27.

And Kerr also seems to be loving her new life. 

"I feel so blessed and so lucky to just have a beautiful and healthy child," she recently told the site. "It’s just incredible."

Lindsay Lohan Reportedly Offered Victoria Gotti Role In Biopic

Lindsay Lohan is getting another chance at a career revival as she's reportedly been tapped to play the role of Victoria Gotti in an upcoming family biopic about her mobster father John Gotti called "Gotti: Three Generations."

On Friday (April 8), TMZ reported that the 24-year-old actress beat out fellow Hollywood starlets Blake Lively and Sienna Miller for the role. Lohan was apparently handpicked by the infamous Victoria herself. But that shouldn't come as too much of a surprise as the report claims that Victoria is a "good friend" of the Lohan family and often spends time with them on Long Island.

When MTV News reached out for comment, a representative for the film said he "can't confirm nor deny that Lindsay is in discussions." In addition, the rep stayed mum on Victoria's rumored preferences for the role saying, "You'd have to ask Victoria Gotti."

While details surrounding the film remain under wraps, a press conference with John Travolta, who is confirmed to star in the film as the leader of the Gambino crime family, will take place in New York on Tuesday to announce casting.

Lohan is reportedly auditioning for "Superman" in Los Angeles and will fly to the Big Apple in advance of the press conference.

Lohan's portrayal of Victoria Gotti would mark the troubled star's first role since ending her four-month stint in rehab earlier this year at the Betty Ford Center. The actress still has her share of legal troubles to sort through.

In late March, Lohan turned down a plea deal in her ongoing felony grand theft case, choosing instead to a trial before Judge Stephanie Sautner. By going to trial, the "Mean Girls" star potentially faces both jail and prison time, which could interfere with production for the film. Lohan was dropped from the Linda Lovelace biopic "Inferno" last year after the film's director explained that "the impossibility of insuring her — and some other issues — have made it impossible" to move forward.

On Monday, we learned the names of some of the stars set to appear on Songs For Japan, a compilation album to benefit the ongoing disaster relief efforts in the earthquake- and tsunami-ravaged nation. And on Friday (March 25), not only was the full roster of artists and songs revealed, but the album was made available for purchase on iTunes.

Lady Gaga, Eminem, Beyoncé, Madonna, the Kings of Leon and Katy Perry joined a list of already-announced artists like Justin Bieber, Nicki Minaj and Rihanna on the album, which is available worldwide on the iTunes Store for $9.99.

Beastie Boys Unleash Celeb-Packed 'Fight For Your Right Revisited' Trailer

Danny McBride, Will Ferrell, Jack Black, Seth Rogen, Elijah Wood and John C. Reilly star as past and future Beastie Boys.
By Gil Kaufman

Adam Horovitz must throw some epic pool parties. That's one of the major takeaways from the two-minute trailer released on Thursday for the Beastie Boys' celebrity-packed short film "Fight for Your Right Revisited."

The trailer dropped just as fans got their second taste of Beastie goodness from the group's upcoming Hot Sauce Committee Part Two album (due out May 3), the funktastic throwback jam "Make Some Noise."

One of the short's stars, "Your Highness" star Danny McBride, broke down the action for MTV News a few months ago at Sundance, dishing on his portrayal of B-Boy MCA alongside Elijah Woods' Ad-Rock and Seth Rogen's Mike D after the film's debut.

But even his description of the demented action in the film that chronicles what happened to the Beasties after the events of the original "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (to Party)" video in 1987 couldn't prepare fans for the window-smashing, F-bomb dropping, "Wait, was that ...?" action in the finished product.

Among the other celebs popping up in the clip: Will Ferrell, John C. Reilly, Jack Black, Rainn Wilson, Rashida Jones, Jason Schwartzman, Ted Danson, Steve Buscemi, Stanley Tucci, Susan Sarandon, Chloë Sevigny, Will Arnett and a "Back to the Future"-era DeLorean.

You can expect a bit more wattage in the final product, which will also feature bits from "The Hangover Part II" star Zach Galifianakis, Orlando Bloom, Amy Poehler, Alicia Silverstone, Maya Rudolph, David Cross, Kirsten Dunst and Laura Dern.

Based on the trailer for the 30-minute short film, Reilly, Ferrell and Black play the old-school version of the pioneering rap trio, facing off against their young doppelgangers in a street battle for rap supremacy. "We bring a super-fresh, old-school throwdown dance contest from the future," challenges Ferrell as McBride drops a motherf'in bomb and kicks some not-so-fresh moves on a black-and-white linoleum break mat set up in the middle of the street.

Along the way, bodega windows are smashed, many cans of beer are sprayed into the fisheye lens and, in a tip of the limo driver's cap to one of Ferrell's most beloved "Saturday Night Live" skits, the jelly-bellied funnyman is seen at the end of the trailer smiling into the camera while hitting a cowbell.

Based on the full screening in January, the 30-minute film is part music video, part improv-heavy comedy. It begins directly after the conclusion of the '87 video, with the Beasties crawling out of the raging apartment party in a cloud of smoke, the original tune playing in the background. They head down the stairs and immediately run into the parents of the kids whose party they crashed. Sarandon and Tucci play the parents, who seem dumbfounded by the rappers' antics.

From there Rogen, Wood and McBride head out onto the New York City streets — the film was apparently shot in three days on the Warner Bros. lot in Los Angeles — looking to keep the party going.

"It felt super cool," McBride told us earlier. "The moment you start rapping into a fisheye lens, you realize you've been training for it your whole life."

Justin Bieber In Talks To Co-Star In Ashton Kutcher Buddy Flick

Bieber would reportedly play younger version of Kutcher in 'What Would Kenny Do?'

Justin Bieber has already notched the third-highest-grossing documentary of all time with "Never Say Never," but now the teen titan is looking at branching out into scripted moves as well.

After his well-received turns on "CSI," the Los Angeles Times reports that Bieber is close to signing on to take the lead role in the buddy comedy "What Would Kenny Do?" opposite Ashton Kutcher. An anonymous source who was briefed on the project told the paper that the film delves into the relationship between a 17-year-old and his 30-something self, with the latter to be played by Kutcher, 33.

The movie, to be produced by Kutcher's Katalyst Entertainment and Will Smith's Overbrook Entertainment, will probably not get moving until next year because Bieber has touring commitments booked through 2012. Though the initial report said Bieber was "eyeing" the movie, an update posted late Wednesday clarified that the project has been under development for months "with Bieber both in mind and on board."

It wouldn't be the first time the dynamic duo has tried to hook up, coming on the heels of a reported meeting in January in which Kutcher discussed Bieber hosting a rebooted version of "Punk'd."

The "Kenny" script was originally described as an R-rated comedy about "a teenager who meets a hologram claiming to be the adult version of himself; the hologram then helps guide the teen through high school." It got a more PG-13 revision from "(500) Days of Summer" writers Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber, who had Kutcher's successful character going back in time to help the awkward present-day Bieber.

Britney Spears May Release Ke$ha-Penned Track As Next Single

'Till The World Ends' expected out sometime next week.

Slowly but surely, fans are getting a taste of what Britney Spears' March 29 album release, Femme Fatale, will sound like. On Wednesday, Spears slowed things down with the tease for her track "Criminal" and psyched fans up with the news that she worked with Travis Barker on the album.

Fans are speculating that the next single released will be the Ke$ha-penned track, "Till the World Ends." Art for the single's cover, in which Spears appears sitting on a couch in a sweater and heels, was posted at Deezer.com.

A 30-second snippet of the song appeared on Amazon.de, which indicates that the single will be available on March 11. The track sounds like a fist-pumping anthem, and the sample showcases Spears' electronically enhanced vocals going "Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh."

The single will reportedly drop sometime next week, according to a tweet sent out by Tampa radio station 93.3 FM. "Hearing from Jive Records that we'll have a new @BritneySpears single to play next week!"

Ke$ha recently dished about the track to Spin.com, noting that the song is about the power of an artist performing a great gig. "That song is me imagining her and any female musician touring the world," she says. "You know, when you go out, and you're having an amazing, magical night and you don't want to go to sleep and you want it to last until the world ends."

Spears' longtime manager Larry Rudolph recently told MTV News that he's super-excited about the next single off Femme Fatale. "I don't think I've been this excited about releasing a Britney single in many, many years," he said. "It's that good. That's all I'm gonna say about it at the moment. I haven't heard a final mix of it, but I should get it in the next day or two. So far, what I've heard is just extraordinary. It really is amazing. Her fans will be very happy with it. I'm trying hard to get it out before the album comes out."

For those keeping count, it's not the first time Ke$ha and Spears have worked together. Ke$ha appeared on the Circus song "Lace and Leather." "I just did backgrounds for her 'cause I was so broke. I needed to pay my rent," she shared back in 2009. "I got a few bucks. No, [I didn't meet her]. I just did backups for her."

AND ANOTHER ONE: Nicki Minaj Sexes Up Lil Wayne On Stage....Again

As the I Am Music II treads along, Nicki Minaj has made a habit out of giving fellas semi-lap dances during her "Letting Go" performance.  Video of her treating Weezy to more of her booty poppin' talents when you read on....

Donning a dizzying multi-colored catsuit and sky-high pink and black hair, Nicki hit the stage at the BankAtlantic Center last night in in Sunrise, Florida.  And instead of bringing a male fan out the audience on stage for her "Letting Go [Dutty Love]" performance, she decided to give Weezy the business...again.

She did the same with Weezy at a previous concert, but the two still act like brother and sister off stage.  Or something like that.

 

Fellas (and some ladies), don't say I never gave you nothin'.  Peep the :20-:36 mark if you're short on time. 

 

Dutty dutty dutty love love....
