Posted 7/28/11 4:00 pm EST by in After Hours


FROM MTV SPLASH PAGE: Forget booth babes, could it be that the celebrities are the real posers at Comic-Con? MTV News decided to get to the bottom of this curious dilemma in the special SDCC installment of After Hours: "Geeks or Posers?"

The New Orleans Saints, 'Sweet Valley High' And 'Pee-wee's Playhouse' In Today's Twitter-Wood

Posted 1/25/10 4:30 pm EST by in Twitter-Wood


The New Orleans Saints' win over the Minnesota Vikings last night landed them a trip to Miami for the Super Bowl, but it also summoned an avalanche of opinions in Twitter-Wood. I sifted through some of the best, including a dream premonition from Jessica Simpson an after-game shot from the stands courtesy of Reggie Bush's significant other Kim Kardashian.

Outside of the stadium, movies business has been brewing all over the place, with Diablo Cody kicking her "Sweet Valley High" script-writing into gear and Rainn Wilson wrapping work on "Super." Just click on past the jump, and you can read those for yourself along with the reason Peter Serafinowicz says he was fated to voice Paul in "Yellow Submarine" and Shannon Elizabeth's view at the live-action "Pee-wee's Playhouse" production.

Kristen BellWith any luck, Tom Felton's Twitter application of choice will follow him over the border into the United States as he heads to the New York premiere for "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince." He posted another pic in the Twitter-Wood feed today to announce that he is heading south for his next stop on the premiere circuit.

Newcomer to our feed Kristen Bell vehemently defended her authenticity today, so I'm going to give her the benefit of the doubt that this recommendation for "My Sister's Keeper" is for real. Mandy Moore also tweeted in with her reactions to "The King of Kong." She actually split her thoughts over two tweets, so I stitched them together for your reading convenience. Click on down and you'll find these fine critiques along with John Favreau's early morning Mexican cravings and Rainn Wilson's run-in with George Foreman. It's all in the Twitter-Wood report for July 9, 2009! Read More...
