Donald TrumpStop the presses — turns out that "Celebrity Apprentice" host Donald Trump isn't running for president after all. The news was announced during the NBC up front presentation today, prompting a flurry of reactions from the celebrity-driven space of Twitter-Wood.

In unrelated news, "Bridesmaids" was a hit at the box office this weekend, crushing any doubts that Kristen Wiig's latest comedy couldn't achieve commercial success. It's a critical darling, too, with glowing reviews pouring in from all across the blogosphere.

Posted 12/7/10 4:15 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


Men In Black 3WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's arrest in London kicked up some tweet commentary in the feed today. Amid all of the critics and supporters, though, James Urbaniak thinks Assange would be a fine "Law and Order" character.

Wil Wheaton, meanwhile, attempted to leak the secrets of creating paper Darth Vader snowflakes on his account, and the pictures show that he came very close. Elsewhere, Tyrese Gibson didn't divulge anything new from the set of "Men in Black 3," but he did hang out with Will Smith and try on some shoes. You'll find his comments, along with Dax Shepard and a monkey, Bret Easton Ellis' praise for Susan Boyle and Seth MacFarlane on his relationship with the U.K. down below.

Glenn Beck, 50 Cent For President And 'Catfish' In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 8/27/10 4:23 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


The worlds of "Eclipse" and Motörhead may have seemed mutually inclusive to you before today, but photo post from actor BooBoo Stewart today proved that that divide can be crossed. I wouldn't hold your breath waiting for a Lemmy Kilmister cameo in "Breaking Dawn," though.

In other Twitter-Wood action, Stephen Colbert pondered what appropriate attire would be for the Glenn Beck rally in Washington, D.C. on Saturday. 50 Cent pondered some political aspirations as well, inspired by Wyclef Jean. You can read about those below, along with Brett Ratner's endorsement of the movie "Catfish" and Dax Shepard's excitement about "Jersey Shore."

Prop 8, De-Verification And Paula Abdul In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 8/5/10 6:45 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


A federal judge's decision to overturn California's Prop 8 ban on gay marriage yesterday caught the attention of Twitter-Wood and the rest of the Internet. Kristen Bell and Eliza Dusku both approved of the development, while Dax Shepard was concerned that his anti-Prop 8 sentiments may have resulted in the loss of his account's "Verified" status. Elizabeth Banks made a similar discovery, though she didn't link its disappearance to Prop 8 and appears to be Verified once again, as of the the time I wrote this.

In other tweeting, Paris Hilton met Sandra Bullock for the first time, John Cho made a eye-opening discovery about "American Pie" and Snoop Dogg turned a photo op with with Mario Van Peebles into a TwitPic post. Check out what that looked like after the jump and see what Damon Lindelof thinks of Paula Abdul's possible return to "American Idol."

Michelle Rodriguez was a little more current with her weekend film choices, getting out to see "Inception." Find out what she thought, as well as why Dax Shepard thinks he's no longer qualified to join the NBA after the jump.

SUNDANCE EXCLUSIVE: Dax Shepard Explains Relationships In This Clip From 'The Freebie'

Posted 1/20/10 3:30 pm EST by in Sundance 2010


Sundance contender "The Freebie" serves up the happy couple of Darren (Dax Shepard) and Annie (Katie Aselton). They've been living in married bliss for seven years when a series of events lead them to consider the possibility of trying something new and different to keep things exciting: each gets one "free" night of sex with a complete stranger. Sounds like a recipe for relationship disaster to me.

In the exclusive clip below, Shepard's Darren goes on at length about his views on relationships during a dinner party, one of the events that lead the couple to set up their agreed-upon one-night-stands.

The Earthquake In Haiti, 'American Idol' And Conan & Leno In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 1/13/10 4:00 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


An earthquake in Haiti that reportedly topped 7.0 on the Richter scale shocked everyone on and off Twitter, with many linking to donation sites and posting hopeful thoughts. Rainn Wilson pondered a personal connection to those he visited recently.

In the U.S., Team Conan has been amassing supporters this week after the "Tonight Show" announced he wouldn't accept a move to the 12:05 slot to accommodate Jay Leno for NBC. Larry King and Dax Shepard both sided with a third party, though, in the Conan vs. Leno debate. Check out those posts below along with postmortem micro-review of last night's "American Idol," Kat Dennings on "Thor" and Emmy Rossum's surprise encounter in Whole Foods. It's all in the Twitter-Wood report for January 13, 2010. Read More...

An 'Eclipse' Stunt Man And A 'Boondock Saints' Pumpkin In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 10/27/09 6:45 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


Someone with a steady hand sent Sean Patrick Flannery a picture of the best "Boondock Saints" jack-o-lantern you're likely to see this year, and he retweeted in kind. There really wasn't any other choice for the Twitter Pic of the Day.

In other tweets, David Slade continued his "Eclipse" posting with a shot of one of the film's stunt co-coordinators and Rachelle LeFevre admitted to crying during "Where the Wild Things Are." Check out those post below along an old clip of The Ultimate Warrior that Aziz Ansari dug up, how Eliza Dushku feels about Dungeons & Dragons, who wants her at his table to play and how Ice-T is faring at "Borderlands" on his Xbox 360.

Checking In On The Bora Bora 'Couples Retreat' With MTV's Josh Horowitz

Posted 9/25/09 10:00 am EST by in Commentary


So it would seem the poor economy hasn't quite hit our friends at Universal Pictures. Exhibit A: I'm in Bora Bora. That's right, a few hours ago I finished a long trek that began in New York, took me to LA, then to Papeete via Air Tahiti (duh), on a connecting flight to Bora Bora, and finally a little boat ride to our absurdly idyllic backdrop for the junket that's about to get underway.

What movie is Universal shelling out this kind of cash for? Why "Couples Retreat" of course! Take a little "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," throw a dash of Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau and what do ya know?!? So for the next few days intrepid MTV News producer Vanessa White Wolf and I will be here in a world an awfully long way from our Times Square home to soak up the sights and sounds and have a little fun chatting with the stars in some stupendously cool environs. Oh, and we'll make our co-workers in New York hate us as they never have before. (Editor's note: Already there, Josh. Already there.) Read More...

Brett Ratner With Michael Jackson And Emmy Rossum Singing With Counting Crows In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 9/4/09 6:30 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


For those of you who caught the Boise State game or "Big Brother" last night, I've got some good news for you. You can click right on ahead and find out what Seth Meyers and Shannon Elizabeth were thinking while you picked your jaw up off the floor in front of the TV. I'm in the prior camp.

Moving on, I've got a pile of photos on the Twitter-Wood playlist today. Selecting among all of Emmy Rossum's shots onstage with Counting Crows in Central Park proved too difficult, so I just grabbed one and suggest you head over to her account for the rest. Grabbing the Twitter Pic of the Day honors, however, was Brett Ratner, who posted a shot of himself with Michael Jackson and P. Diddy. There seems to be something different going on with each of them in the scene. Keep on going, and you'll see some others from David Slade and Danny Masterson, as well as commentary from Jeremy Piven on his Letterman appearance last night where he addressed his pullout from "Speed the Plow" on Broadway last year. It's in the Twitter-Wood Report for September 4, 2009.
