Sometimes the headline really says it all, no? We've been touting Ben Foster here for a while. I still think he's in the running for scene stealer of the year thanks to his kick ass villain in "3:10 to Yuma." But who does the guy that we admire have a thing for? Like everybody else it seems, he's into former "Alpha Dog" co-star Justin Timberlake.
Watch below as the love comes pouring out! He thinks Justin might stop global warming! He thinks he might be President! He is...A FAN. 'Nuff said.

Actor Logan Lerman has worked with Russell Crowe, Mel Gibson, Heath Ledger, Drew Barrymore and Christian Bale. He is currently garnering rave reviews in one of the most critically-acclaimed films of 2007. But he has a strange request to ask of his latest co-star, the beautiful Jessica Alba.
"Jessica?" he grinned recently. "Will you go to the prom with me, please?"
The 15-year-old rising star, last seen in "3:10 to Yuma," has spent much of the past year working opposite the "Sin City" star in the upcoming comedy "Bill." And while Lerman returns to the 10th grade this month, he admits that more than a few male classmates have expressed their jealousy. Read More...
When he was on the set of the now-number-one movie "3:10 to Yuma" alongside Russell Crowe and Christian Bale, 15-year-old Logan Lerman learned the acting lessons of a lifetime. But if his dreams continue to come true, he'll someday be the one giving orders.
"I really want to become a director some day," revealed the young actor, who returns to the 10th grade this month. "I'm very interested in directing and writing; I'm already writing. Me and my best friend, his name's Dean Collins, he played my best friend on 'Jack & Bobby,' a TV show I did when I first started out like three years ago. We've worked together ever since."

I've already fessed up and written about what a fan I am of James Mangold's riveting new Western, "3:10 to Yuma." Mangold has been a director I've always found fascinating, dating back to my obsession a decade ago with the vastly underappreciated "Cop Land." So when I got a chance to talk to the "Walk the Line" director for the first time, I didn't give it a second thought. Read below as Mangold discusses the shades of gray in his new film, what he hates about modern Westerns, and why he felt like a failure after "Cop Land."
We began by talking about Ben Foster's kick-ass portrayal of Russell Crowe henchman Charlie Prince.
MTV: Did Charlie play on the page as well as Ben Foster plays it on the big screen?
James Mangold: Well it was a great role but it's definitely bigger in the movie than you might see on the page. Read More...
Over the past couple of decades, Hollywood's delivered only a handful of what used to be its most popular genre...the Western. The good ones stand out: "Unforgiven," "Tombstone" and, if you extend to television, HBO's "Deadwood," among others. Now, "Walk the Line" director James Mangold hopes to add to the roster with his remake of the classic "3:10 to Yuma," which stars Christian Bale as a rancher who agrees to transport a captured outlaw (Russell Crowe) to court. This one's anxiously awaited by us in the office; you'll probably feel the same once you watch the trailer below.

Maybe you've noticed one of the posters for the "3:10 to Yuma" in your local theater? 'Yuma' of course is a remake of a 1957 western that itself was based on a 1953 Elmore Leonard short story (yes, Elmore Leonard's been writing for a while now). The new flick, helmed by "Walk the Line" director James Mangold, stars Russell Crowe and Christian Bale. Now remember that poster I just mentioned? Check it out below and tell me if something doesn't fit.
