There’s no real reason to give a crap about Rumer Willis, except that her parents are the super famous (and way hot) Demi Moore and Bruce Willis. Without the celeblood in her veins, she’d be any other 18-year old in America, dabbling in art school or working at Starbucks, in which case failed hair experiments (as well as bird tattoos) would be totally acceptable and understandable. When you’re that age you do dumb stuff to your body and fool yourself into thinking that you are totally cutting edge and hot, when neither are true. Millions of brunettes have come before Rumer, sizzling their scalps with bleach until the result, as in Rumer’s case, is a burnt boy cut modeled after that one time you cut all your Barbie’s hair off when you were four. The girl has the cute quirky thing down and we secretly are fond of her weirdo fashion sense, so let’s forgive her this time. It’s nothing a bottle of Nice n’ Easy in Natural Darkest Brown can’t fix.
Check out more pics of Rumer - in both shades - below.
More proof that the party was over before you even dared to knock on the door — Amazing Journey: The Story of The Who. The film chronicles the rise of the British rock superpower, the band that not only hoped they’d die before they got old but helped coin the term “rock opera.” Roger Daltrey, Pete Townsend, John Entwhistle and Keith Moon provided a punkish counterpoint to the bluesier Stones and acid-addled Beatles; they were wild and free, crazy and beautiful, and their drummer was so unpredictable he once parked a car in a swimming pool. Anyway . . . VH1 will premiere the film on November 3rd (our version comes with 20 extra minutes, so be sure to watch). Above is the exclusive trailer. Don’t cry. Don’t raise your eye. It’s only teenage wasteland, yo.
Have you seen Britney Spears lately? She’s all sorts of messed up - fake blue contacts a blazin’, stains on her 1980’s purple Fashion Bug button down tank-blouse, with some serious bra-less boob action going on underneath. She doesn’t need a stylist, she needs a mom. Considering her current state of nastiness, the above ad for her new perfume - appropriately named Believe - is all that more amazing. This isn’t airbrushing, it’s editorial welding! And seriously, has she ever had hair that looks like organic corn silk? Even when her locks were real, they still had that crispy, “been ruined since her first perm at age 6″ look to them. Also, she’s got some serious finger balancing skills. Look at that perfume bottle go! [DListed]
Every week we round up selections from the funniest and most brutal film criticism out there so that you don’t waste your cash at the theaters and laugh a little at Hollywood’s expense. This week: Some sayThe Kingdomis a taut political thriller, filled with explosions, intrigue and moral teachings about invading foreign1 soil. Others think it’s a dangerously stupid way to stoke racist blood lust. Enjoy your explode-y racism, movie-goers!
“The King-dumb: Hollywood provides the Islamic world another reason to hate America with The Kingdom, a xenophobic, overblown, revenge-driven action thriller that exports the ‘Rambo’ mentality to the contemporary Middle East.” - The New York Post
“The picture begins with a heinous terrorist attack on an American compound in Saudi Arabia. You want loaded, this picture’s got loaded: The bad guys mow down/blow up a softball game, for heaven’s sake. ‘Crack’ FBI-op Ronald Fleury (Jamie Foxx) is addressing his young son’s classroom when the call comes in. No My Pet Goat moment for this man of action — he politely excuses himself and assembles a ‘crack’ investigative team including bomb expert Chris Cooper and forensics whiz Jennifer Garner. What Jason Bateman brings to the team, as far as I could tell, is a mint-condition vintage Pixies T-shirt. His character’s also Jewish, which, along with Garner’s character’s disinclination to wear a burka, gives the movie some not particularly fresh cultural-conflict juice.” - Premiere

Super fussy director Wes Anderson releases The Darjeeling Limited on Friday; it’s about the quirky voyage three brothers take across India. (Two sidebar comments: One of those brothers is played by Owen Wilson, whose character is possibly coming off a suicide attempt; and also, in case you didn’t know, some of us here at VH1 can’t stand quirk and think it’s ruining America. But quirkily, we digress.) Anderson and the good folks at Apple have dropped Hotel Chevalier, a 13-minute short that works as a prologue to the film. It stars Jason Schwartzman and Natalie Portman as a couple of crazy kids in Paris who talk about sex. Natalie disrobes. Farce ensues. Watch above . . . or go to iTunes and get it for free, quirk-face.
At last night’s Us Weekly Hot Hollywood 2007 party, all the adorable young stars were out putting their best-dressed foot forward - everyone except Hills darling Lauren Conrad. The starlet - who recently launched her own fashion line - looked less like an expert designer and more like she landed in a pile of candy corn and glitter. It’s not that we’re on Team Heidi or anything, but we definitely bat for Team Have a Little Style.
Check out Lauren’s get-up and ogle at other stars’ outfits below.
Phew! The roads are safe! Dina Lohan spoke out about the rumors that her daughter was bailing on Cirque Lodge this weekend, with this simple text message to Access Holywood: “Not true staying in Utah.” How eloquent! It’s amazing that someone lacking in the creative text message department could spawn a child who coined the term “boog suge.” You read that right, but let me break it down for you in case it’s at all confusing:
Boog Suge = Booger Sugar = Nose Candy = Harmful sugar-like powder that one puts up one’s nose and leaves the user ready to do - and spend thousands - on more! [Note: May cause user to steal car and try to run ex-assistant and her mother off road]
Genius, LiLo! According to Steve-O, that’s what the starlet calls cocaine, and he knows this because she recently (before rehab, obvs) stole his stash from his bathroom. So if there’s any question as to why our friend is hanging out in rehab for a little bit longer, there’s your answer. We can’t wait to hear the adorable slang word Linds is gonna coin for “sobriety!” [NYP. Image: Getty]

Halle Berry’s Baby in Danger?

Milla Jovovich is the $24 million dollar woman, or at least she was on Monday, as her latest Resident Evilsequel raked in big bucks at the box-office. This newest extension of the video-game-cum-silver-screen horror show is about Jovovich’s character Alice and a group of remarkably sculpted survivors of the evil Umbrella Corporation’s T-virus. They fight their way through the desert outside Vegas. Zombies are no match for Jovovich, and apparently neither are aliens, vampires or the fashion industry. She’s been in a slew of critically derided action films, but she’s made her fair share of good ones, too (check Wim Wenders’ The Million Dollar Hotelfor proof). She has also fronted a band, designed clothes with her friend Carmen Hawk, and been one of the world’s foremost super models. Not bad for a little kid from Kiev, right?
