I can hardly believe that the FINAL piece of the Harry Potter series is almost here. It’s obviously very bittersweet. Fans have been dying for this movie for years. Yet that final chapter sucks because that means it’s over.

Emma Watson Needs a Break… From School

I love Harry Potter, but I ADORE Twilight.  So I know I will feel that way after watching Breaking Dawn: Part 2.

Anyhow, enough of the tears, lets take a look at this final shot from Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2:

Tom Hanks and his wife, Rita Wilson are suing their former insurance broker.  They worked with J.B. Goldman Insurance Agency for more than 20 years.

Well, they switched brokers a few weeks ago and the new broker found some gross overcharging inside various policies they had with them.

Their claims say that the broker overcharged them, insured them multiple times for the same things, and engaged in a “predatory embezzlement scheme” that cost all the plaintiffs hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars.

The amount that they are suing for hasn’t been listed, but you can imagine it’s a very large sum. This is Tom Hanks we are talking about and you know he has some serious cash involved here.

I know that a lot of people don’t care because he’s still got more money in his left pants pocket than most people would see in a year.  But, that doesn’t make ripping him off okay.

I hope these insurance guys go down in flames.

Jimmy Fallon and his mission to have a Saved By The Bell cast reunion on his show are almost complete.  He created an online petition to get cast members on board. So far Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Mario Lopez and Dennis Haskins have agreed to participate.

Now Elizabeth Berkley is the latest one to jump on.  She did so on the Today show saying,

“I love everyone. We grew up together. So, I would be up for it. I know fans would love it,” she said.

So who else is left?   Tiffani Thiessen and Dustin Diamond have yet to join.  What’s the deal?  Have they no love for their former “friends?”

Do you think it would be cool to have the cast reunion?

Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Chris Jericho give us a gun show as they leave/arrive at rehearsals for Dancing With The Stars. Happy Hump Day. I still miss me some Derek Hough though.

Dancing With The Stars – Season 12, Week 1 RECAP

Some other members of the cast of Season 12′s Dancing With The Stars can be seen leaving/arriving at rehearsals yesterday as well including front-runners Ralph Macchio and Kirstie Alley. How amazing were they Monday night? Did you watch? Did you love?

On the celebrity side, Romeo, Petra Nemcova and Mike Catherwood are also spotted. Chelsie Hightower, Karina Smirnoff, Cheryl Burke and Lacey Schwimmer round out the professional side of the sightings.

Who is your favourite so far?

Since Chris Brown had a psychotic episode at GMA yesterday, I thought it only fitting to promote his latest music video, Beautiful People.

Nah.  Not really.  But it is my job to keep all of you up to date, even if it is concerning a schmuck like Chris Brown.

Chris Brown’s Violent Outburst Backstage at Good Morning America

Yesterday Brown was scheduled to debut this video on MTV.  But then he backed out since all the world wanted to talk about was his window smashing episode.  Pretty much… that’s his fault.  Temper.  Temper.

Anyhow, watch the video and tell us what you think:

Nylon magazine went all Sucker Punch on us for their latest issue.  Vanessa Hudgens is straying away from her typecast roles and is going for something altogether different.

Vanessa Hudgens Talks ‘Beastly’ and Her Type of Guy

All the girls chatted with Nylon about the movie experience:

What were some of your first impressions of each other?

JENNA:  Abbie was a badass, I was scared of her… I didn’t really know Vanessa’s work that well at all, so I did have some preconceived notions.  I wasn’t concerned, I just wasn’t sure.
EMILY:  Warner Brothers were surprised that we all got along.  It was magic.  I only met everyone after they were cast.
VANESSA:  I remember walking in the very first day, and Jena is stretching her back from side to side, and I remember looking at her like, Damn! Look at the back on that chica!  She was so cut!  I was blown away by her back muscles.  I was like, ‘Okay, I’m a little bit intimidated, I must admit.’

And the physical training…

EMILY:  It’s completely empowering to realize you’re so much stronger than you thought you were.  But I just remember the first night, getting home, calling my Mum crying, like, “I can’t do this!”  Like, throwing up a few times the first week.  And then by, maybe, the third week it was a total turnaround.
JAMIE:  Zack Snyder put us through the training because, on the film, he didn’t want us to be hot chicks pretending to do stunt work.  He wanted us to actually be able to do it and be strong.
ABBIE:  One night I was having dinner with Bradley Cooper and he was like, ‘If [the cast of the A-Team] had played paintball with [the cast of Sucker Punch] you would have kicked our butts.”  It’s like, “Yeah, we know.”

How did you feel when you saw the movie for the first time?

VANESSA:  My adrenaline was kicking, my energy, my spirits were so high that I literally felt like I had just walked out of a rock concert… When I saw it, I was literally like, Woo, yes!  I can do anything! Yay! Go women!  Like, I feel so empowered.
EMILY:  I had a very tame and mild love scene with John Hamm… I think it’s great for this young girl to actually take control of her own sexuality.  Well, the MPAA doesn’t like that.  They don’t think a girl should ever be in control of her own sexuality because they’re from the Stone Age… So essentially, they got Zack to edit the scene and make it look less like she’s into it.  And Zack said he edited it down to the point where it looked like he was taking advantage of her.  That’s the only way he could get a PG-13 [rating] and he said, “I don’t want to send that message.”  So they cut the scene!

And hey, Jamie, weren’t you on the Real World?

JAMIE:  That was a fun college experience.  They’re like, ‘We’ll pay your rent for three months, we’ll send you off to an awesome vacation.”  It totally beat serving cocktails at the local college bar.

Are you planning to see this one?  It lands in theaters on Friday!
