Alessandra Ambrosio To Wear 'Fantasy Bra' At Victoria's Secret Show, According to Accidentally Leaked Video


There aren't many people in the world who would shell out $2.5 million for a bra, but we suspect Victoria's Secret knew that when they decided to call their annual (and totally aspirational) lingerie splurge a "Fantasy Bra." What the brand wasn't prepared for? One of their own employees to spoil the surprise of just who will be wearing this year's coveted brassiere at the Victoria's Secret fashion show.
In an online video entitled "Victoria's Secret Angels Talk Seduction," it was accidentally revealed that Alessandra Ambrosio will receive the high honor of walking down the runway in the bejeweled brassiere. The video was leaked when somebody at the retailer posted the video that included a clip of Ambrosio wearing the "Fantasy Bra." Not long after people noticed the gaffe and shared the news via Twitter, Victoria's Secret cut the clip out of the film, Page Six reports. (You can watch the current version of the video here.)
The "Fantasy Bra," created by London jewelers each year, has become a coveted modeling honor, and only big names have been chosen to wear it ever since Claudia Schiffer modeled the inaugural "Million Dollar Miracle Bra" in 1996. Since then, Heidi KlumGisele BundchenTyra Banks and, most recently, Miranda Kerr have all reached it-Angel status by wearing the ornate lingerie on the catwalk -- so you can imagine how this really puts a damper on Victoria's Secret's hype plans for the December 4th fashion show.
The mass retailer had planned to reveal the identity of this year's "Fantasy Bra" model in their Soho store this Thursday, so now that the secret's out, we're not quite sure how that will go down. As for Alessandra, we're sure she's still pretty excited to sport the jewel-encrusted bra at the show -- even though we would have a panic attack if we ever wore 5,200 precious gems at one time. That's what the pros are for!

Tina Fey & Amy Poehler To Host Golden Globes In 2013


The Hollywood Foreign Press Association and Dick Clark Productions announced the pairing on Monday.
Fey and Poehler have a long history of working together. In addition to acting as co-anchors on the "Saturday Night Live" Weekend Update desk from 2004 to 2006, Fey and Poehler co-starred in the 2004 film "Mean Girls" and the 2008 film "Baby Mama." As recently as this past weekend,Fey and Poehler connected on stage at the Comedy Central charity event "Night of Too Many Stars" and auctioned off a night of their friendship to raise money for autism awareness. (Their friendship earned $46,000 each.)
At the 2012 Golden Globes, Fey photobombed Poehler when Poehler's name was read as a nominee for Best Actress - Television Series Musical or Comedy.
The decision to hire Fey and Poehler to host the Globes isn't all that surprising: The pair have a longstanding relationship with NBC (from "SNL" to "30 Rock" and "Parks and Recreation"), the network that airs the Golden Globes. As recently seen withJimmy Kimmel and Neil Patrick Harris -- as, respectively, emcees of the Emmys on ABC and the Tony Awards on CBS -- having a connection with the ceremony's home network is a plus for potential awards show hosts. (That's part of the reason why Seth MacFarlane was such an out-of-left-field choice to for the 85th annual Academy Awards, which air on ABC; he's closely connected to Fox with "Family Guy" and NBC/Universal with "Ted.")
The Golden Globes honor the best in television and film as determined by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. The awards are usually handed out before the Academy Award nominations are announced, but that won't be the case in 2013: The Oscar nominations will occur on Jan. 10, 2013, three days before the Globes telecast.
The 70th annual Golden Globes air on NBC on on Jan. 13, 2013.

PRESIDENT OBAMA TO Mariah Carey & Nicki Minaj STOP THE FIGHTING!


President Barack Obama has a message for Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey -- GIVE PEACE A CHANCE!!!!!

The war at the "American Idol" judges' table was escalated all the way to the Commander In Chief this weekend when POTUS appeared on Michael Yo's radio show.

"I think that they are going to be able to sort it out," Obama said ... "I am confident."

Obama continued, "I'm all about bringing people together, working for the same cause. I think both outstanding artists are going to be able to make sure that they're moving forward and not going backwards."

And when asked who's his favorite, Obama actually picked a side -- replying, "Mariah. She's actually done some events for us. I've gotten to know her and Nick [Cannon]. She's a wonderful lady."

He added ... "Nicki, I don't know, but I've got her on my iPod."

Taylor Momsen Naked In New Video For The Pretty Reckless


Taylor Momsen appears in a new spoken word music video for her band, The Pretty Reckless, in which she stands completely naked while reading a verse from her song "Under the Water" for Amp Rock TV's initiative, "The Words."
The 19-year-old rocker poetically reads off lyrics from the track, while black and white images of her body flash across the screen until it is revealed that she is, in fact, nude.
What a far cry from the days when Momsen played innocent teen Jenny Humphrey on The CW's "Gossip Girl."
Showing off her trademark raccoon eyes, a naked Momsen reads:
Showing off her trademark raccoon eyes, a naked Momsen reads:
Lay my head under the water, lay my head under the sea. Excuse me sir am I your daughter? Won't you take me back and see? It's not a time for being younger and all my friends are enemies. And if I cried unto my mother, she wasn't there for me. Broken lines across my mirror show my face all red and bruised. And though I screamed and I screamed no one came running, I wasn't saved from you. Don't let the water drag you down, don't let me drown in the waves. I could be found, I could be one that was saved. Lay my head under the water. Alone I pray for calmer seas. And when I wake from this dream with chains all around me ... I've never been free.
Well, we all know Momsen is not afraid to shock.

Susan Sarandon Talks Assault; 'Disgusting' Treatment As Young Actress



Susan Sarandon has been acting for more than four decades. She's won an Oscar, been nominated for five Emmys and is an outspoken social and political activist. But Sarandon recently revealed that she is also a survivor of sexual assault.
"It was not successful -- for either of us," Sarandon told Elle. "I just went into a room, and a guy practically threw me on the desk. It was my early days in New York, and it was really disgusting. It wasn't like I gave it a second thought, it was so badly done."
The actress wouldn't reveal what she was auditioning for in that instance.
In 2010, Sarandon launched a worldwide petition to lobby state governments for "Safe Harbor" laws that protect victims of sex trafficking. "I choose very carefully the groups I talk about," Sarandon told the Wall Street Journal at the time. "We need to put a face to this issue in order to take the problem from abstract to specific."
Sarandon stars in the upcoming "Cloud Atlas" (out Oct. 26) and recently told "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon," "It's a wonderful movie about how everyone is connected. It's a major, major epic movie with epic ideas for grown ups."
