Bizarre Casting: Johnny Depp To Play Carol Channing?…

Earlier this month Johnny Depp revealed his “dream role” would
be to play 88-year-old Carol Channing because “she’s amazing”.

And Carol has given her blessing to Johnny’s gender-bending
plans to portray her in a film.

Johnny regularly changes his appearance for films, and even
dressed as a woman in 1994’s comedy Ed Wood.

Carol says she’d love to see how he would interpret her on the
big screen.

She says, “It is not a new concept to me. Not at all. Men have
been imitating me for as long as I can remember. In fact, most
of the impersonations I have seen have had a five o’clock shadow.

“I imagine, when or if Johnny should portray me, he will succeed.
Because a true artist, such as himself, is one who loves his or
her creation and therefore represents their honest view of that
which they are creating. I think he is a gifted performer and I
would be very proud, as well as interested in seeing what his
vision of me would be.”

Jennifer ‘unhappy with Gwyneth’s relationship with ex Ben’

Gwyneth Paltrow is so close to her former boyfriend Ben Affleck,
his wife Jennifer Garner finds it difficult to tolerate,
according to a new report.

The former couple dated in 1998 before splitting the following
year and starting their own separate families with new partners.

The actress is now married to Coldplay front man Chris Martin and
the pair has a five-year-old daughter, Apple, and son Moses,
three, while Affleck and Garner are parents to Violet, four, and
six-month-old Seraphina.

Paltrow has maintained such a close relationship with Affleck, she
sent him a personal letter congratulating him on his newborn child
in January, causing his wife to get annoyed.

A source says, “Ben and Jen got one of Gwyneth’s famous notes this
year just after Seraphina was born. It was very nice, but it was
a little too personal. Gwyneth made sure to mention how she was
happy that Ben was finally creating the family he had always wanted,
a family, which the two of them discussed in depth when they were
dating. It just rubs Jen the wrong way.

“Jen will always allow Ben to have contact and friendship with
Gwyneth. But she doesn’t always like it.”

Paula’s Back-up to Idol…

Nigel Lythgoe Invites Paula Abdul to Dance….

If it turns out that Paula Abdul will not be back on American
Idol, she is welcome to drop by and judge Fox’s So You Think
You Can Dance.

“We would certainly consider her as a guest judge,” Dance
producer/judge Nigel Lythgoe says… “Without question.”

Paula, a choreographer-slash-pop star by trade, has thought
about returning to her dancing roots before, as a contestant
on ABC’s “Dancing with the Stars”. “It would be a phenomenal
experience,” she said.

DWTS executive producer Conrad Green in turn deemed Abdul’s
interest “really flattering and a great story, potentially.
But I would imagine that Fox might have something to say
about it.”

But if she’s not on Idol, it leaves the door wide open!

night out?

It’s Jay-Z and Rihanna… The two partied with friends in
the VIP lounge at London club Vendome, in the UK city’s
exclusive Chelsea district, on Tuesday night.

Jay-Z – who is married to Beyonce Knowles – ensured their
entourages enjoyed the evening by ordering countless bottles
of expensive champagne and vodka.

A source said: “They had two of the VIP booths, so all of
their people could mingle together. Jay-Z ordered countless
bottles of Dom Perignon champagne along with vodka for both
tables and the party really gathered pace.

“Everyone was trying to get into their area to get a glimpse
of them but the security was so tight, many were left
standing by the roped off area trying to sneak a peak.

Here’s the Scoop….

Singing sensation Susan Boyle has been dubbed “overrated” by
pop star Lily Allen.

Susan has become a global sensation since she first appeared
on reality TV show “Britain’s Got Talent” and captivated
judges Simon Cowell and Piers Morgan with her powerful voice.

But Lily isn’t impressed and is backing Susan’s big rival,
12-year-old Shaheen Jarfagholi, to triumph, according to
Access Hollywood.

Lily wrote on her Twitter account, “i thought her timing was
off, no control, and i don’t think she has an amazing voice.’

“yes, she can sing, but it’s not about talent with her is it?,”
Lily wrote.

“she seems like a lovely lady but if its about talent,that
Shaheen kid should win.

What do you think?…
Is Susan a singing sensation or do you consider her overrated?

Now Lets get to the nooz!

Ciao,

Daniel Craig and Hugh Jackman Broadway bound…

Together again for the first time, Hugh Jackman and Daniel
Craig on stage.

Nothing has been officially confirmed but two of Hollywood’s
reigning hunks may be paired next fall on Broadway in “A
Steady Rain,” a two-character drama by Keith Huff.

Hugh and Daniel are set to star in the play about two Chicago
policemen, friends since childhood, whose lives take divergent
paths after an unnerving incident.

“A Steady Rain” was a big hit in Chicago in September 2007
at a small theater and transferred the following year to
another venue for a commercial run.

Huff, who has a master’s from the University of Iowa’s
Playwright’s Workshop has extensive regional theater credits.
“A Steady Rain” would be his Broadway debut. A telephone call
to his agent, John Buzzetti, seeking confirmation of the
production, was not returned.

“A Steady Rain” would also be the New York stage debut for
Daniel, who skyrocketed to film stardom as the latest
cinematic James Bond. Hugh, the movies’ Wolverine from all
the “X-Men” movies, proved to be a major Broadway box-office
draw five years ago, playing entertainer Peter Allen in the
musical “The Boy from Oz.”

In a video posted in January on YouTube, Huff talked about
casting “A Steady Rain” with famous actors. The playwright
told Chicago-based writer Mark Bazer: “I think it would be
kind of cool to see Daniel Craig do it. My wife would be
happy.”

Man Alleges Assault by Chris Brown’s Bodyguard….

Chris Brown is facing more legal trouble, this time from
a man who claims he was beaten up by the singer’s bodyguard.

Robert Rosen is suing Chris, for personal injury, alleging
he was roughed up after taking a snapshot of Chris at a Los
Angeles fitness club on March 13, according to the lawsuit
filed in L.A. Superior Court.

Robert claims he was chased by the bodyguard, who yelled
at him after taking the picture while Chris was playing
basketball, and attempted to run away, but an employee of
L.A. Fitness Club allegedly “tried to block Robert’s exit
and grabbed his clothing and body.”

Robert broke free but then fell down a flight of stairs,
the lawsuit says. The bodyguard then allegedly “picked
Robert up by his shorts, and physically assaulted him,”
according to the lawsuit. Robert adds he was “severely
injured and disabled, both internally and externally,”
claims he was falsely imprisoned, and is seeking damages
covering his medical bills and emotional distress.

Robert, who’s also suing the fitness club for negligence
and other claims, argues its employees did not adequately
protect him.

Robert’s lawyer, Mark Geragos, says, “This is a specious
and frivolous lawsuit by one of the paparazzi seeking
publicity and a payday. He’s done this before and lost.
We will vigorously defend against this.”

An L.A. Fitness Club manager at the gym at issue had
no comment.

Heigl Rep Shoots Down Salary Demand Rumors…

Katherine Heigl’s representative has lashed out at reports
that the actress was dropped from an upcoming A-list movie
ensemble due to her extortionate salary demands.

Katherine, who broke into movies with 2007 comedy hit
“Knocked Up,” was expected to join Hollywood superstars
Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner and Anne Hathaway in
romantic comedy “Valentine’s Day,” due to hit screens
in 2011.

But according to online reports, Katherine was booted out
of the casting line-up after demanding payment of $3
million dollars, despite working for a maximum of 14 days.

A source close to the project tells New York gossip column
PageSix that “no other actors asked for nearly that amount.”

However, Katherine’s publicist refutes the rumors, insisting
it was the actress who decided not to take part in the film.

Katherine’s rep says, “The story is ludicrous. Early
negotiations are a daily occurrence in this business,
and just for clarification, Katherine walked away from
this project for multiple reasons.”

Ryder Battled Depression After Depp Split…

Actress Winona Ryder has opened up about the depression she
suffered after splitting up with ex-fiance Johnny Depp.

The break-up was Winona’s first brush with heartbreak, and
she admits she took it badly, despite it coinciding with
the peak of her acting career.

Winona doesn’t mention Depp by name, but admits her first
romance ended shortly after she shot the 1992 movie “Dracula.”
Her engagement to the actor ended less than a year later.

Winona, says, “I had just done ‘Dracula’ and ‘Edward
Scissorhands.’ I had just had my first real break-up, the
first heartbreak.

“And I think it was really ironic because, like, everybody
else just thought I had everything in the world … (and)
I had no reason to be depressed. Everything was sort of at
its peak, but inside I was completely lost.

“I remember feeling, ‘I can’t complain about anything,
because I’m so lucky, I’m so lucky.’”
