Hawaii Five-0 Billboards Are Everywhere

Ok, so most of them are in L.A. But still! Billboards for the reincarnation of Hawaii Five-0 have been spotted across the country. Can’t find one in a city near you? Well, look no further…

Even though Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park are stuck in the back, don’t worry, there’s enough variation to go around.

Hollywood A-lister Nicolas Cage is reportedly in talks to star in a Bollywood gangster film called “Broken Horses,” directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra.

A source told the Hindustan Times, “Vidhu is currently in Los Angeles, working on for Broken Horses. Cage has been confirmed for one of the leading roles just a few days ago.”

The whole movie will be shot on the U.S. and in English.

I hope we get Cage dancing bhangra and being gangsta at the same time.

Which APA Comedian Will be on DWTS?

The one and only Margaret Cho that is!

Sources were confirming to E! News that Korean-American Margaret Cho was among the rumored names to be on the next season of DWTS! And much to our luck, it’s been confirmed Miss Cho will be on the 11th season of the hit show! Who wouldn’t love watching Cho prance around like a classy, little lady?

I’ve never been into this show but I’m TVO-ing it every week baby just to see our lovely comedian shaking what her mama gave her.

Review: Vampires Suck

vampiresSuckPoster_20100830_aatheory

Just to be clear: I’m not a Twilight fan. I’ve tried giving it a fair chance, but the novels are so cliché and cheesy that I stopped at the back cover summary. I just can’t get into it, but I like the metaphorical cover art though. The use of black, red, and white colors with the chosen images (apple, flower, ribbon and chess pieces) made it look interesting to read. But you know the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover.”

That being said, I have never seen any of the movies either. So, what made me watch a parody movie of Twilight? Double feature films at the drive-in theater. The Other Guys was playing after Vampires Suck. Might as well get there early, find a good spot, watch and wait.

So, since I haven’t seen any of the Twilight movies, I was basically lost during most of the film, but my cousins who have seen the Twilight films filled me in on what I didn’t know.

Apparently, Jenn Proske who plays Becca Crane, the film’s version of Bella, did a great job at nailing original Bella’s awkwardness in speech and mannerisms. Again, I’m just going with what I was being told, but I found her character to be funny. If the film is supposed to be poking fun at unsaid truths about the Twilight series, then I guess Bella is a closet freak. (If you watch Vampires Suck then you’ll get what I mean.)

It was surprising to see how many Asian American actors were in the film. I counted three: Ken Jeong, Jun Hee Lee, and Brian Philip Cruz.

Love it or Hate it Emmy Awards Fashion: Kate Gosselin

She may not be Asian, but her 8 children are a quarter-Korean so we’re talking about her tonight because the super-mom looked unbelievable in a basic, long black gown for the Emmy’s tonight. The sequin cowl neck brought the dress up 10 notches and who knew Miss Mama Gosselin could look this good when she’s all dressed and prettied up?

Love it!

Love it or Hate it Emmy Awards Fashion: Jenna Ushkowitz

Wow, is the only word to describe Jenna Ushkowitz’s outfit tonight. She looks unbelievably ravishing in this crimson, flowy, light dress.

I’m loving it!

Love it or Hate it Emmy Awards Fashion: Olivia Munn

Olivia Munn has the body to wear anything and everything and why she chooses some of the numbers she wears at these lavish events is beyond me. The dress is safe, boring, and shows none of Munn’s spunky personality.

I love Munn, but I’m going to choose the “Hate It” button for this one!

Love it or Hate it Emmy Awards Fashion: Mindy Kaling

Actress Mindy Kaling showed up at tonight’s 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards looking like this:

61434878

I’ve never been a huge fan of Kaling’s fashion choices but she looks absolutely stunning in this black number. The fit is perfect for her curvacious body and everything from the hair, to the make-up, down to the sparkling shoes is a winner in my eyes. Love it!

Will you be watching the Emmy Awards tonight? And do you love it or hate it?

Disney’s new movie “Prom” features Yin Chang

resume

Yin Chang, who has previously guest starred on shows such as Gossip Girl and Law and Order, will be in Disney’s new movie Prom. The project is currently in production and the movie is set to come out in 2011.

The comedy revolves around 9 teenagers who prepare for prom, so we can expect have a lot of laughs during this movie. Thankfully Disney isn’t making the film into a another High School Musical, so expect no random bursts of dancing and singing.

MovieWeb.com says, “The tone is said to be similar to the types of teen comedies directed by John Hughes or Cameron Crowe.
