Seriously? Is someone seriously contemplating making a sequel to The Break-Up? According to Celebitchy (who heard it from a friend (Star Mag) who heard it from a friend (People) who heard it from a friend (Variety)) a follow up to the 2005 rom-com could be in the offing. Yeah, okay then. Rumor has it that Jennifer Aniston is being offered 20 million dollars in real money to reprise her role as a largely herself. But the last movie did bring in like $200 million in the theaters so it’s possible that Vince Vaughn can be made (bribed) to get over the awkwardness of working with his ex and the seeming implausibility of a reunion that the film’s ending imparts on the viewer.
With Hollyweird struggling to make money these days, a sequel to a moneymaker seems like a pretty decent bet. Even Kevin Smith made a part 2 out of his opus Clerks (though to be fair all of his movies are pretty much sequels). What do you think of a sequel to The Break-Up? And how do you spell “breakup” at your house? YourTango prefers 1 word sans hyphen.
Boy, that Jennifer Aniston sure has been in the news a lot lately. We hope someone can find a guy for her.
But what about an older couple reaching back for box office love? You’re like, “When are Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon going to reunite, as lovers, on screen?” Funny you should ask. According to The New York Post, there is a sequel in the works for Bull Durham. We’d say that Bull Durham is without much argument the best comedic, sports rom-com ever made. And now poor Nuke Laloosh and Crash Davis are going to have to come out of retirement because everyone has run out of ideas. That’s lame. That’s lame all the way. We thought the Kevin Costner baseball trilogy had run its course when he phoned in For The Love Of The Game (Field Of Dreams followed Bull Durham and tugged at some heartstrings, why not make a sequel of that?).
Enjoy our favorite scene from Bull Durham (and the most redeeming thing that Robert Wuhl has ever done) and remember that Hollywood is a bunch of lolligaggers:

When in Rome, Justin Timberlake, 27, reportedly proposed to Jessica Biel, 26, while visiting Italy for the wedding of her former 7th Heaven co-star Beverly Mitchell to accountant and long-time boyfriend, Michael Cameron.
But seriously, how many times have we heard that Justin popped the question to Jessica? Probably as many times as he’s gotten down on one knee. Between shoe-tying and yoga (he dabbled with former girlfriend of almost four years, Cameron Diaz), we’d be hard-pressed to make an accurate estimate.
While it’s a shame we’re all too bored by rumors of the engagement to actually care about the real deal, there’s no need to begin crying any rivers. Justin bought Jess a pricey vintage diamond ring (multi-carat, of course) and a diamond encrusted bracelet, both reportedly bought from a jewelry store named Nicola Boncompagni in Rome, according to People.
The couple moved in together to Justin’s Hollywood home over the summer, and the two have been reportedly apartment hunting in NYC’s Chelsea, according to the New York Post. They’ve been dating for almost two years- one year less than the groom-to-be dated Britney Spears. Speaking of the old flame, they’ll be reuniting to record a duet for Britney’s new album, due out by the end of this year, according to the UK’s Daily Telegraph.
Maybe Britney will be singing at her ex’s wedding- that is, if the bride-to-be’s new album –recently reported by Star magazine- fails to make the charts?

OK then. It looks like the King of Some Media made this wedding thing happen. Howard Stern and fiancée Beth Ostrosky got hitched this weekend out in Long Island according to Starpulse. Long Island stalwarts Joan Rivers and Billy Joel were in attendance. And the highlight of the event was a raunchy toast/roast delivered by Chevy Chase (we’re glad people are still giving him a chance, we’ve got to stop beating him about his talk show eventually). A minor seating chart snag occurred when both Jimmy Kimmel and his off-again, off-again girlf Sarah Silverman both showed up.
We reported a while back that Kelly Ripa’s husband Mark Consuelos was set to officiate the nuptials and it looked like that went off without a hitch. We suppose a guy like Howard Stern probably knows just about every celebrity but this wedding seemed particularly star-studded. Yep, high school with money but in Long Island .
The newlywed Stern once had grave reservations about getting married a second time and really seemed like he was trying to stay engaged indefinitely. Try as you may, eventually you have go number 2 or stand up, it appears there’s no third direction. What do you think it would be like to be married to Howard Stern? Lots of laughs, very little privacy, and nice gifts when lines get crossed sounds about right.

And that’s the way they became the Brady-Bundch. The Brady-Bundch, bum pah dum pump. According to Perez Hilton, there may be wedding bells in the near future for New England Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady and his lady, Princess Gisele Bundchen.
It would only reasonable for Brady to fill his time with wedding bell and all that rot as he’ll be missing the remainder of the season with an injured knee. Lots of trouble a guy can get into with only sitting around, having surgery, and rehab to look forward to. Sometimes that trouble comes in the form of a 5′11″ Brazilian model who is rumored to be worth $150 million.
Patriots fans are a little uneasy that he’s spending so much time in New York, Bundchen’s home base. And are probably not thrilled that he’s supposedly bro-ing it up with A-Rod (per Gothamist). Sure, the rumors probably aren’t true but it’s interesting that they come on the heels of the Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson are getting engaged soon legend. We suppose that if you can’t compete with the next best quarterback on the field, you might as well figure out some way to up the stakes.
Giselle has pointed out, on a number of occasions, that she and Tom Brady are not the Beckhams of the Americas. Which is true. The Brady-Bundch has better taste, fewer kids, and have totally non-annoying voices. Also, if you’ve got a quick second weigh in on which nickname for Tom Brady and Gisele Bundchen you prefer: the Brady Bundch or Brundch Plans. If you’ve got a 3rd direction you’d like to go, we’re all ears.

Oh, oh Mexico. Guess we could have guessed that Los Cabos would become Mexico’s hot spot of choice for the newly “outed” couple: Lindsay Lohan and girlfriend Samantha Ronson. No, no, Ronson didn’t seem to spend the couple’s vacay beat-boxing at the mix table. Rather, the Entertainmentwise.com reports that the two were spotted frolicking in sea, hand-in-hand in boyshort bikinis, earlier this week.
Wondering why Lohan left the country, just after confirming rumors that she and the DJ had been dating for quite sometime, on a U.S. radio interview? Us too- especially in light of the house-hunting. SFGate.com reports that Lohan and Ronson looking to set up shop in NYC, with hopes to settle into Big Apple’s very own Dakota Building, site of John Lennon’s assassination and previous home to many a star.
Better yet, Lindsay has reportedly lobbied to Dina Lohan for permission to let Lindsay’s 14-year-old sister Ali, move in with her and Ronson, according to the National Enquirer.
No need for speculation on how Lindsay’s dad would deal with that setup, since the father-daughter duo stopped speaking when Michael publicly disapproved of his daughter’s new lesbian girlfriend: “There is a lot more to Samantha than meets the eye. Not that what we see is so pleasing anyway… what’s with this ‘person’? Look at the way she ‘dresses’. (Ronson is) dark, hideous and a disgusting representation of humanity,” he said in an e-mail to X17online, according to the National Ledger. Er, ouch?
Last on the Lindsay front: MTV UK reports today that LiLo has future plans on following the footsteps of Angelina Jolie and Nicole Kidman by adopting a child in need or a newborn from another country. Maybe that’s why she flew off to Mexico? Just kidding…
