Meet Alexie Gilmore, an actress who stars alongside Matthew McConaughey and Robin Williams in her upcoming movies. You can see her biography and photos below.

Alexie Gilmore

Alexie Gilmore was born in 1976, which makes her age 32. She lived in Manhattan until age 10 when her family moved to New Jersey. She attended Tenafly high school and then went to DeSales University in Pennsylvania. She describes herself as a good kid growing up who loved movies.

“I never got into any trouble when I was a kid. We just went to see movies and went to get ice cream. We would maybe go to the Tenafly Diner and just talk about the movies we saw.”

Her acting career started with a Talbot’s commercial and led to movies like “I Do & I Don’t,” “Definitely, Maybe” and “Surfer Dude” with McConaughey. It is due out later this year. Gilmore has also starred in several television shows including “Rescue Me,” “Law & Order: Criminal Intent,” “Hope & Faith” and “New Amsterdam”. Her next project is an indie film with Robin Williams called “World’s Greatest Dad.”

The film has an interesting plot about Lance, a “high school poetry teacher (Williams) who copes with his son’s death from a freak masturbation accident by faking a suicide note to spare the family shame.” Gilmore plays Claire, a fellow teacher who has an affair with Lance. This movie just started filming Tuesday in Seattle.

Meet Vanessa Calloway, the “Coming to America” actress who is back on television with the show “Baldwin Hills”. See her biography, photos and video here.

Vanessa Bell Calloway

Like “The Hills”, “Laguna Beach”, and “Newport Harbor” before it, “Baldwin Hills” is another reality television show about high school kids living the high life on their parents’ dime. But unlike the first three, “Baldwin Hills” airs on BET, not MTV. One of the show’s main characters is Ashley Calloway, daughter of actress Vanessa Bell Calloway.

As a biography, Vanessa Bell Calloway was born on March 20, 1957, in Cleveland, Ohio, so her age is 51. She attended college at Howard University in Washington, D.C. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband, Dr. Anthony Calloway, and her two daughters.

Vanessa has been acting since 1985, starting first on soap operas like “All My Children” and “Days of Our Lives”. But her first big break came with the film “Coming to America” with Eddie Murphy. Since then she has appeared on many a variety of television shows and movies. Throughout her career, Vanessa has been nominated for 7 NAACP image awards.

Now Vanessa is back with two reality television shows. In addition to the popular teenage drama “Baldwin Hills”, she is the producer of “Vanessa Bell Calloway: In the Company of Friends”, a show in which the viewing audience is invited over for a dinner party for intimate conversation and tasty treats.

Hollywood studios have chosen two of the “biggest” comedies of the summer season to go up against one another on the same weekend. Which film will end out on top of box office ticket sales by end of the weekend?

First off, we have the Steve Carell vehicle, Get Smart, which is a remake of a 1960s sitcom created by the legendary Mel Brooks. The story is a play on a familiar scenario: A clumsy, not-so-quick-on-the-draw funny guy somehow becomes a secret agent and stumbles and bumbles his way to saving the world. In 1965, this may have been a novel concept, but we’ve seen some version of this a million times by now. Fortunately, Steve Carell is very funny and Anne Hathaway always seems to deliver a better than expected performance. Because Carell has generated enough good will with me and I tend to enjoy Anne Hathaway, I’ll probably pony up for the tickets, soda, and popcorn prices that would cover a tank of gas.

Next, we have Austin Powers, I mean Mike Myers, in The Love Guru. This movie can go one of two ways. It could be a genuinely funny Mike Myers creation that would remind us of the unique humor from his previous masterpieces, while not copying his past work. Or . . . it could end up being a tired photocopy of a photocopy and just a means for Paramount to turn a quick buck by following a formula that worked a coupled of times back in the 1990’s. In that sense, it might seem like watching VH-1 I Love 1998. It is not old enough to be a missed classic and at the same time the expiration date has run on its freshness.

There are two further elements worth mention regarding The Love Guru. One is that it has Justin Timberlake.

Timberlake is talented and fully commits to whatever he takes on. Plus, he does not need to do a stupid movie, like Lindsay Lohan, because he has a ridiculously successful career, unlike Lindsay Lohan. I like Justin Timberlake, and he may help sway me to watch this film or at least rent it some time in the near future.

On the other hand, The Love Guru also has one of the least talented actresses my eyes have ever gazed upon (even worse than Lohan who at least has an addiction excuse).

In fact, I believe society as a whole is less fortunate because studios keep putting Jessica Alba in movies. Seriously, Jessica Alba is one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. She seems nice and sweet. However, the girl could not act her way out of a paper bag and I have never seen a Jessica Alba movie that I liked or that I thought would be possible to like even after 5 wine coolers. Of course, there are those who may disagree. When I recently visited one of the more popular movie sites, I was enlightened by this comment (typos included) from Austin567:

“jessa abla if u are reading this leader u are my favorite actor in the intire WORLD and u are so cute”

Really Austin567? Really? If u are reading this Austin567, you are a silly, misguided fool. I bet you there are at least 566 Austins out there that are much cooler and a better judge of talent, a better judge of human beings, and a better judge of anything living. But that’s, just like, my opinion.

Okay, forget everything I just said. I watched both trailers and I actually think they will both be funny. Maybe Austin567 will be down for a double feature.

Meet Meaghan Cooper, Miss September 2007 for the Hooters calendar and the girl rumored to have had an affair with everyone’s favorite “Saved by the Bell” cast member, Mario Lopez. See her biography, photos and video here.

Meaghan Cooper

Meaghan is being blamed for the break up of celebrity dancing couple Mario Lopez and Karina Smirnoff. Although pictures of the two surfaced last year, Mario and Karina have only recently split. Karina’s rep says it’s a difficult time but that the dancer is focusing on her professional life.

As a biography, Meaghan Cooper was born in San Antonio, Texas. Her age is 22. She was previously named Miss South Texas. She is an aspiring actress and model, as well as a musician. She appeared as Miss September 2007 in last year’s Hooters girls’ calendar, a guest on “The Best Damn Sport Show”, and a contestant on “American Idol”. She is currently recording her debut pop-rock album.

Meaghan can most recently be seen on ABC’s new reality television show “I Survived a Japanese Game Show”. One of the stunts being performed on the show involves one contestant trying to reach food that is on the head of their partner, who happens to be running on a treadmill. The game show premieres June 24.

Entertainment Weekly has released its list of the Top 25 Hollywood Hookers, and Julia Roberts has taken the number one spot for her role in “Pretty Woman”. Because, honestly, who else would win that one?

Julia Roberts in “Pretty Woman”

The list takes a look at the actors and actresses who played prostitutes and the careers that such a role gave them. For Julia Roberts, her role as Vivian, a prostitute who happens upon Eddie (played by Richard Gere) when he can’t figure out how to drive a stick shift on Hollywood Boulevard, skyrocketed her to fame. Though Julia had appeared in “Steel Magnolias”, and a few movies like “Mystic Pizza” before that, it was “Pretty Woman” that landed her the title of America’s Sweetheart.

And the same might be said for a few of the other prostitutes on the list as well. Rebecca De Mornay lands at 17 on the list for her role in “Risky Business”. The actress was virtually unknown in 1983 when the film released, with only one movie completed prior to that. But after she stole Tom Cruise’s heart, she was in America’s as well. De Mornay has gone on to star in about 40 other films and various television shows. Others on the list include Jamie Lee Curtis (”Trading Places”), Jodie Foster (”Taxi Driver”), and Elisabeth Shue (”Leaving Las Vegas”).

There’s even a few men on the list, including Dermot Mulroney for his role in “The Wedding Date”. I’ll be adding that to my Netflix queue … now. And of course, Richard Gere makes the cut for “American Gigolo”.

Who are some of the best actors to never have won an Oscar? I tried to think of some actors who I was unsure of whether they received an Oscar or not.

First, here are some who came to mind and did win at least one:

Robert Deniro has two for Raging Bull and The Godfather II; Al Pacino won his first for Scent of a Woman; Susan Sarandon has won it for Dead Man Walking and her costar in that film, Sean Penn, has got one for his role in Mystic River.

Now here are some names who you might expect to have an Oscar on their mantle, but don’t:

Johnny Depp: Nominated for Sweeney Todd, Finding Neverland, and Pirates of the Caribbean. One glaring omission in my opinion is Edward Scissorhands. Without that movie there is no Johnny Depp film career, and he was fantastic in that movie.

Tom Cruise: Nominated for Magnolia, Jerry Maguire, and Born on the Fourth of July. But what about A Few Good Men?

Matt Damon: Nominated for Good Will Hunting, for which he won as a screenwriter. But what about The Departed and even The Talented Mr. Ripley.

Michelle Pfeiffer: Nominated for Dangerous Liaisons, The Fabulous Baker Boys, and Love Field (never heard of it). Even though I really liked her in White Oleander, Michelle Pfeiffer feels like yesterday’s news.

Clint Eastwood: Nominated for Million Dollar Baby (won for directing) and Unforgiven.

Michael Rapaport: Lighten up, that’s a joke.

Peter O’toole: No actor has been nominated for more Oscars (8) without winning one. The first film that got him a nod was Lawrence of Arabia in 1963 and his last one was for Venus in 2007. I wish O’Toole the best of luck and hopefully he will still have another opportunity.

Of course, if any of the talented actors above need some tips, they could always ask Marissa Tomei who has won an Oscar for her role in My Cousin Vinny – no seriously.

Imagine having to say, “yes, I was nominated for an Oscar, but lost to the woman from My Cousin Vinny.” Speachless.

Mischa Barton has a long string of lesbian roles and her latest film “You and I” just keeps her streak alive. The movie is based on real events taken from the book “t.A.T.u. Come Back.” t.A.T.u is a musical group out of Russia who became popular and somewhat controversial because they were portrayed as lesbians. You can see the trailer and several other videos of Mischa’s lesbian roles below. This character type has become so common place for Mischa, people are wondering if her life is imitating her art.

Mischa Barton

Rumor has it Mischa has totally dipped out on promoting her new film because it’s so terrible. It premiered at The Cannes Film Festival in May but according to The New York Post, Mischa was nowhere to be seen.

“She hasn’t pulled out of interviews, she’s pulled out of everything . . . Her room is here, she is here, but trying to get the two together has just been impossible. We just don’t know where Mischa is.”

However, Barton did show up to the “The Britains Best” award ceremony as a presenter. See more video after the jump.

Tina Fey is not just a funny girl, she’s sexy, too. In fact, she’s really sexy. A website geared toward bisexual and lesbian women, AfterEllen.com, has voted Tina Fey number one on their annual list of “Hot 100: The Sexiest Women, According to Women”.

Tina Fey

The reason for her number one sexy status? AfterEllen says,

“Mix it all together with some awesome black-rimmed glasses and bicurious shoes, and you’ve got a new lesbian icon. Smart, sexy, funny and down-to-earth: That’s what lesbians like!”

In other Tina Fey news, she continues to work on her hot television show “30 Rock”, and has even invited Britney Spears to do a guest appearance. After the popstar boosted ratings for “How I Met Your Mother”, Fey stated, “we would love to work with Britney Spears.”

Tina is currently working on the script for her latest movie, “Curly Oxide and Vic Thrill”.

The gorgeous Angelina Jolie is nude in the newest “Wanted” trailer, and you can see the video below. Brad Pitt is a lucky man.

Angelina Jolie Nude in “Wanted”

The verdict is still out on whether the film is good, but anything with Jolie is at least watchable. Then throwing an Angelina nude scene in there almost guarantees the studio will make its money back.

The scene in the trailer is short and from the back, but it’s enough to get you interested. Angelina basically drops a towel, reveals multiple tattoos and turns her head back giving James McAvoy a million-dollar seductive look. Speaking of millions, the bidding is reportedly up to $15 million for the first photos of the twins.

You can see the trailer with the brief Angelina nude scene below.

Sienna Miller stars in the upcoming “GI Joe” movie as The Baroness. For the film, she has to dress in head to toe leather and be covered in blood. The film has been getting a lot of press, and while it’s not because Sienna Miller is a part of the movie, the fact that she’s walking around in skin tight leather won’t hurt.

Sienna Miller in “GI Joe”

Sienna’s role as The Baroness is a far cry from other roles she’s portrayed. In the movie based on the kids action heros, Sienna’s character is an evil, sexy woman who is always a thorn in the GI Joe’s side. Sources say she had a lot of fun filming the role. See more photos of Sienna Miller as The Baroness here.

Also appearing in the “GI Joe” movie are Dennis Quaid, Channing Tatum, Marlon Wayans, and Brendan Faser. Depsite these names, Sienna was the first actor to sign on for the movie. The film is slated for release on August 7, 2009.

Sharon Stone has a real-life “Basic Instinct” moment at Cannes when she flashes an upskirt while on a boat ride.

Sharon Stone Upskirt at Cannes

The Cannes Film Festival has brought us some great moments so far. “Indiana Jones” was released, Lindsay Lohan was spotted kissing her girlfriend, Jack Black and Dustin Hoffman spilled the details about Angelina’s twins, and now Sharon Stone is flashing her over-the-hill goods.

You can see the photos of the upskirt here.

Sharon isn’t all flash at the festival. Stone also helped raise over $10 million for AIDS research at a charity auction held at the Moulin de Mougins outside Cannes. She was joined by Madonna, Diddy, and Mary. J. Blige, who all auctioned off personal belongings off for a good cause.

Though not set to release until November 7, 2008, “Changeling” is already starting a buzz of excitement. Starring Angelina Jolie and John Malkovich, “Changeling” is the story of a mother’s search for her lost son. Set in 1928, Angelina comes home from work to find her son missing. When a boy returns months later saying he’s her son, Angelina knows he’s not, and the quest to find the truth in the Prohibition Era begins. John Malkovich stars as the Reverend who helps Angelina along the way.

Angelina Jolie In “Changeling”

Clint Eastwood directs this promising drama. He says,

“A mother’s love is the whole driving force of the movie.”

When the script was laid in front of him, Eastwood was particularly impressed by how closely it followed the actual events of the time. In 1928, the mother’s story and her conflict with the LAPD had riveted Los Angeles and appeared all over the news.

“Changeling” premiered at Cannes. Clint Eastwood, Angelina Jolie, and Brad Pitt did the promotional rounds, and insanity followed. The press couldn’t wait to get their photos of a pregnant Angelina Jolie (twins!) standing next to Brad, but even without her baby bump Angelina would draw some attention with the powerful performance she pulls off in her upcoming film.

See more photos of Angelina Jolie on the set of “Changeling” and a video of Eastwood and Jolie discussing the movie below.

We’ve got another Shakespeare movie on our hands, and the two most likely actresses to be cast have been. In the upcoming “King Lear”, Keira Knightley has been tagged to play Cordelia, the king’s youngest daughter, and Gwyneth Paltrow is set to star as Regan, the nasty, middle daughter. No word on who will play Goneril, the eldest.

Keira Knightley To Star In “King Lear”

The “King Lear” movie was announced at Cannes Film Festival and is budgeted at $35 million. This will be the 21st remake of the Shakespeare classic, but only the second to show the “King Lear” nude scene - sorry fellas, that scene is probably going to Sir Anthony Hopkins.

The “King Lear” role makes a busy year for Keira. She is getting ready to release “The Edge of Love” and start the promo circuit with Sienna Miller. She is also filming “The Duchess”, another old English drama based on the life of Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire.

See more photos of past King Lear stars and a video clip from one of the movies past.

Actress Sarah Michelle Gellar is nude…for charity.

Sarah Michelle Gellar Nude

Who was the charity that got Sarah Michelle to take it all off? The Coalition of Skin Diseases in America is the lucky organization. The 30-year-old Gellar helped raise over $2000 for the online auction. Sarah Michelle was joined by three other celebrities, Dave Navarro, Amanda Bynes and Leila Ali, who agreed to get naked in front of the camera. After seeing over 10,000 bids for pictures of the nude celebrities, Vaseline donated another $25,000.

Sarah Michelle Gellar

Sarah Michelle is also featured on the 2008 “ultimate list of the world´s most beautiful women.” Maxim released their Hot 100 and Gellar came in at #5 behind Eva Longoria Parker, Jessica Biel, Scarlett Johansson and #1 Marisa Miller. Mrs. Freddie Prinze Jr. may not be slaying vampires anymore, but she has three projects coming out this year. Check out more hot photos of Sarah Michelle Gellar below.
