Emma Watson's dislike to super low culture of Kim Kardashian: stars in "The Bling Ring"


Emma Watson, ever best known as Hermione Granger since after the Harry Potter movies, is about to show us all a very different side of her acting chops in the upcoming Sofia Coppola film “The Bling Ring“.

"The Bling Ring" is director Sofia Coppola's next project, which chronicles the group of fame-obsessed thieves who stole from the likes of Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. It stars Emma Watson as Nicki, the ring-leader of the little group, who tells EW the research for the part was fun.

The movie, which is based on a true story, centers on four teen girls in L.A. who made unfortunate names for themselves by breaking into a string of celebrity homes and stealing their belongings. Watson’s character, Nikki, is based on Alexis Niers, who starred with her sisters and mom on the short-lived E! reality show “Pretty WIld” a couple of years back. Alexis served 30 days of jail time, but the crimes followed her around even while she was on the show, which chronicled run-ins with the very celebrities she was accused of stealing from. And in a weird twist of fate, she reportedly ended up just one jail cell over from Lindsay Lohan, one of her burglary victims.

Watson is known for her adorable pixie looks and proper English accent, so to see her get Cali’d out is going to be a big deal for fans. She says she watched a lot of reality television in order to prepare for the role and even managed a nice slam on Kim Kardashian and her family:

“I just watched a ton of reality TV…I was doing an English course (at Brown University). So I would go from reading Virginia Woolf to (watching) Kim Kardashian. I kind of loved it, this mix of super-high and super-low culture. I think it was a nice balance,” she said.

Watson also took to Twitter to give fans some sneak peeks at her character, via a photo and her own description.

Watson also posted the image of her upcoming "The Bling Ring"

Justin Bieber summoned by police for alleged roughed up with Paparazzi


Justin Bieber has been summoned for interrogation for questioning by Los Angeles County Sheriff's investigators after a photographer complained of being roughed up by the pop star at a shopping center.

Police is trying to piece together what happened in the alleged altercation — check out the shocking full report! Justin Bieber‘s that very alleged May 27 scuffle with the paparazzi at the Calabasas Shopping Center in Calabasas, Calif. just got a lot more real, as the official police report from the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has been released.

Justin, 18, is involved in the alleged “physical altercation” with a photographer, and we have to admit that the report is pretty shocking. Check out the full text below:

Deputies from the Malibu-Lost Hills Sheriff’s Station responded to The Commons at Calabasas Shopping Center, Calabasas, after receiving a call from man who alleged he was in a physical altercation with pop singer Justin Bieber Sunday afternoon.

Shortly after deputies arrived, they contacted a man who told deputies that as he took pictures of Mr. Bieber, who was also in the company of actress Selena Gomez, he was physically battered by the singer. The man stated that Mr. Bieber left the with Miss Gomez prior to deputies’ arriving on-scene.

Oscar nominee Sharon Stone being sued for harasment by her children's nanny


Sharon Stone's childrens former nanny Erlinda T. Elemen sued against the superstar on Wednesday has been sued by her children's former nanny for harassment and wrongful termination. She also objects that the star repeatedly insulted her Filipino heritage and insulted her accent, her religion and other aspects of her culture in the final months of her employment. But the actress opines that her, nanny's Basic Instinct is "absurd."

Erlinda Elemen, who was fired by the actress in February 2011, claims Stone, who was nominated for an Oscar for her role in "Casino," forbade Elemen from reading the Bible in the actress' home..

"This is an absurd lawsuit that has been filed by a disgruntled ex-employee who is obviously looking to get money any way she can," Stone's rep said in a statement to Us Weekly. "After she was terminated approximately one and a half years ago, she filed claims for alleged disability and workers compensation. Now, she is obviously looking for another opportunity to cash in."

"This is a frivolous lawsuit for absurd claims that are made-up and fabricated," the statement continued. "Sharon Stone will be completely vindicated in court." Stone has three adopted sons, Roan, 12, Laird, 7, and Quinn, 5.

Elemen's attorney, Solomon Gresen, however, said the lawsuit will also draw attention to the issue of overtime pay for domestic employees. The suit alleges Stone accused Elemen of "stealing" the overtime pay.


"A common problem for employees in household occupations concerns the receipt of overtime and other wages," Gresen told The Wrap. "When a celebrity does it, it only serves to draw attention to the fact that there are thousands of people who are being underpaid. Hopefully, the publicity generated from this lawsuit will be of benefit to others and will prompt some change in the lives of ordinary citizens." The former nanny is seeking unspecified damages.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's daughter Shiloh, who turns 6 on Sunday, loves to be active and dress like her older brothers, Maddox, 10, and Pax, 8. The tomboy tot wears her hair short in a pixie-cut, rocks combat boots and plays with toy swords.

Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise's only child Suri, 6, loves all things girly. The little princess likes to wear frilly pink dress, makeup and high heels.

Holmes even looks to her young daughter for fashion advice. "I know I look good when Suri asks if she can have my outfit when she's older," she told Marie Claire in 2011. "Suri is magical when it comes to clothes, she's quite an artist."



 

Bethenny Frankel promotes new shapewear but mum on divorce


The Real Housewives of New York City star Bethenny Frankel has shown her new Skinnygirl empire to include shapewear, which she terms as "lazy lingerie." The new line of Skinnygirl Solutions is now available at Macy's department stores and features tanks, shorts and bodysuits under the $50 mark, which feature retro shapes and lace prints that don't need to be completely hidden.

"The problem with shapewear is that it's not something you want people to see," Frankel told People magazine. "But this is something you actually want people to see."

"It's lazy lingerie," Frankel continued. "You're wearing it now, and if you take your clothes off, you're already sexy for your husband or your boyfriend or for a date."

The reality star turned business woman began her shapewear venture with the Skinnygirl Smoothers n' Shapers line, which allowed women of all sizes to add shapers to their own bras. Frankel and her husband Jason Hoppy currently appear in the Bravo reality series "Bethenny Ever After," which is on its third season. Frankel married Hoppy in 2010 and gave birth to their daughter Bryn in May 2010. The couple's wedding and Frankel's pregnancy was documented on the show "Bethenny Getting Married?"

Frankel and her family
Thought she is busy with promoting the new shapewear and her newest New York Times best-seller, "Skinnydipping," her fans are worried on the divorce rumor of she and her husband Jason Hoppy. However she has remained mum on rumors. While the pair have been arguing on recent episodes of "Bethenny Ever After," a source told the Huffington Post that they have not met with divorce lawyers and are very much still together.

Frankel, who came to fame by starring on "The Real Housewives of New York" for three seasons, revealed in February that she recently suffered a miscarriage.

The reality star, who has developed a line of cocktail beverages under the Skinnygirl brand, is also New York Times best-selling author with diet and self-help books like "A Place of Yes" and the Skinnygirl chef also signed a three-book fiction deal with Touchstone Fireside and released her first fiction book called "Skinnydipping" in April.

In a recent episode of her reality series, "Bethenny Ever After" where the 40-year-old reality star and her husband, therapist and crew got lost at sea off the coast of Maine in September. Frankel said at the time that they were lost at sea for 20 hours after the GPS system broke and the coast guard had to guide them back to shore.

Abducted Cheer-girl Sierra Lamar suspected murdered: an arrest of 21 old boy.


Missing Sierra Lamar, Help find her

Today Morgan hill detective to announce in a press conference that 15 year-old Kidnapped Cheear girl Sierra Lamar has been murdered. Santa Clara County police said today they had been following the suspect in the kidnapping and murder since March 28, hoping he would lead them to the missing teen.

Antolin Garcia Torres, 21, was arrested Monday and booked into the Santa Clara County Jail on suspicion of murder and kidnapping, according to the sheriff's department.

Police said he was not being cooperative and they are still looking for LaMar. In custody currently for Sierra’s murder is Antolin Garcia-Torres, 21, of San Martin who was booked at Santa Clara County Jail on suspicion of murder and kidnapping, said sheriff’s Sgt. Jose Cardoza.

The girl's mother, Marlene LaMar, made an emotional plea to Garcia-Torres and anyone who may have information about the case at a news conference today. "Please give the information that you have to lead us to Sierra to help end this nightmare. I would like you to come forward and say where she is and end this nightmare for us as a family." she said.

LaMar said she is holding out hope her daughter is still alive. "Until she is found,our search is still not going to end," she said. "As a mother, still I am hopeful because her body has not been found and that gives me hope." The cheerleader disappeared on March 16 on her way to a school bus. Two days later, authorities found her cellphone and Juicy brand bag containing a pair of folded jeans and a T-shirt two miles from her home.

DNA was found on several of the teen's belongings and was run through a state database, said Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith. That DNA was a match for Antolin Garcia Torres who had a submitted DNA during a felony arrest that had not been prosecuted, she said.

The discovery prompted police to follow him 24/7 starting March 28. "Public safety was our primary concern," she said. Smith did not say today what prompted police to end their surveillance and arrest Garcia-Torres, but on Monday after the arrest she said, "He was arrested today because this is how we thought that the arrest should be done and public safety is our number one concern. We don't want anyone else hurt. We don't want any more little girls taken."

The suspect is from Morgan Hill, the same area where Sierra lived with her family and where the teen disappeared. He is the owner of the red Volkswagen Jetta that police seized on April 7. "We have physical evidence linking Sierra to his vehicle," Smith said today. Garcia-Torres was arrested around 6 p.m. at the Safeway store where he works.

Divers began searching reservoirs near her home last month, but have yet to come up with a trace of the teen. Last week's episode of the TV program "America's Most Wanted" featured LaMar's case, and investigators have since been sorting through a series of tips and possible leads.

Annular eclipse "The Ring of Fire" throughout the western United States.


On May 20 the western half of the United States will see the a spectacular annular eclipse "The Ring of Fire." The solar eclipse will begin in China before it becomes viewable to folks in Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Texas. A Japanese satellite will take photos from space.

The sun Blackout
Six astronauts living in space just might see the shadow on Earth created by the event from their home in space, NASA officials say. The International Space Station crew will likely not see the peak of the solar eclipse, but the astronauts may see the shadow from a partial solar eclipse as it moves across the Pacific Ocean, NASA spokesman Bill Jeffs told SPACE.com.

"They may be able to see the moon’s shadow as a disc on Earth when they are nearest the full eclipse point at 23:36 (between Kamchatka [Peninsula] and the Aleutian Islands)," Jeffs told SPACE.com in an email. The space station crew operates on Greenwich Mean Time (Universal Time), putting their time closest to the eclipse's peak at about 7:36 p.m. EDT.

On Earth, observers along a wide section of East Asia, the Pacific Ocean and western United States will also see a partial solar eclipse. Other observers, located along the center line of the eclipse's path, will see the moon block out 94 percent of the sun, weather permitting. [Annular Solar Eclipse of May 20 (A Photo Guide)]

Sunday's solar eclipse is a relatively rare event known as an annular solar eclipse, an eclipse in which the moon is at a point in its orbit that makes it too small (as viewed from Earth) to completely block the sun. Instead, the moon blocks most of the sun, leaving a ring of light (formally known as an "annulus"), that can be a dazzling sight to onlookers observing through safe solar filters. The effect is also known informally as a "ring of fire" solar eclipse.

The eclipse's so-called "path of annularity" begins in China's Gulf of Tongking, to the north-northwest of Hainan Island, where the local time will actually be May 21. The moon's shadow then moves east, passing over Tokyo, Japan, and heading out over the Pacific Ocean before making landfall in northern California and crossing seven other western U.S. states to end in northwestern Texas at sunset.

But exactly what the space station crew may see remains to be seen. Past observations of solar eclipse shadows from space have revealed dark, roughly circular blemishes on Earth. During solar eclipses, this shadow moves across the Earth at a speed of about 1,243 mph (2,000 kph).

The space station is currently home to two Americans, three Russians and one Dutch astronaut. The crew is scheduled to be in its sleep period during the best times to see the eclipse shadow from space, Jeffs said.

However, one of the American astronauts — NASA veteran Don Pettit — has been a prolific photographer of Earth from space and it is possible he or his crewmates may make an effort to observe the moon's shadow making its way across the western Pacific Ocean.

Editor's note: If you snap a great photo of Sunday's annular solar eclipse and would like it to be considered for use in a story or gallery, please send images and comments to SPACE.com managing editor Tariq Malik at tmalik@space.com.

Elin Nordegren splits with Jamie Dingman: woods' ex single again.


After the seperation with Tiger Woods Elin Nordegren chose Jamie Dingman as her boyfriend. But she has not been able to continue the relationship with him and as a result single again. They are seen separate from each other since last summer.

The businessman and Tiger Woods's ex-wife broke off their relationship in January, a friend of hers tells PEOPLE. There’s much speculation that she may have realized she entered a relationship too soon after her old one ended.

"She says Jamie's a great guy – and they're still friends – but I think it was just too early [after the divorce] for her to get serious with anyone," says her friend. 

Nordegren had a very public divorce from Woods after news broke that he was carrying on affairs with several mistresses in 2009; he later admitted to a sex addiction, which earned him public ridicule. He has, however, gone on to maintain his golfing career, although many think he’s lost the spark he once had. Before linked with Nordegren, Dingman, son of the billionaire Michael Dingman, was previously linked to Tom Brady's ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan.

Nordegren is currently living in North Palm Beach, Florida and is having a new home built for herself and her two children, presumably with the $12 million she received from Woods in their divorce settlement. High-profile divorcee or not, she will likely be a hot commodity in the dating scene once word gets around that she’s on the market again.

Khristen Stewart is to shoot 'Cali' and dying to star in "Fifty Shades"


After the skykissing fame as an actress in "Twilight" series and after in appearence in the "Snow White and the Huntsman" Khristen Stewart is going to shoot in a new film "Cali." She is also, as she says, dying to star In ‘Fifty Shades’ With Robert Pattinson.

It's not the last time Stewart will get into action hero mode, either. She recently signed on to star in "Cali" for director Nick Cassavetes. Described as a gritty action pic taking place in Los Angeles, "Cali" sees Stewart playing the star of a fake snuff film. After running away with the cash and disappearing for years, Stewart's character must return from "the dead" to save the sister she left behind.

"That's my next thing," Stewart told MTV News about her future plans during the "Snow White and the Huntsman" press junket. "Hopefully after [the 'Snow White' press tour], we can go [shoot 'Cali'] in the summer and lock ourselves away for a few weeks in the Valley, in a little production office, and get together [some] weird, really freaky actor people."

Indeed, Stewart says that the movie is "filled with the coolest characters," leaving plenty of room for some memorable "freaky actor people" to climb aboard. But for the actress, on a personal level, "Cali" is a very important project that calls back to her past.

"I'm from the Valley, and it's been a while since we've captured that world," Stewart said of the movie. "It's super extreme. Everything about it. It's extremely violent and extremely funny and extremely emotional. It's not hard to watch, but it's really [in your face]."

On the other hand she expresses her interests to act in fifty shade with Robert Pattinson.
Stewart says she’s “dying to make another movie with [Robert Pattinson],” but she also hinted that Fifty Shades of Grey might just be the perfect vehicle for their big-screen reunion.

“I haven’t read the book yet, so I don’t know,” she told Celebuzz. “But I’m dying to make another movie with Rob. I think we’re a good team, and whatever it is needs to be so ridiculously ambitious … but I’d love to work with him again.”

Ridiculously ambitious? Sounds like Fifty Shades to me! The movie is going to be huge no matter who stars in it, but having Rob and Kristen in the lead roles — not to mention in the “Red Room of Pain” — would take E.L. James’ “mommy porn” trilogy to a whole new level.

Britney Spears and Demi Lobato joining the judge panel in "The X Factor"


Fox has formally announced that pop singers Britney Spears and Demi Lovato are joining "The X Factor." They will join Simon Cowell and fellow returning judge L.A. Reid during the Upfront Presentation in New York City on Monday afternoon.

Prior to the reveal, Britney posted a photo to her Twitter page, with the hashtags #britneyxfactor #SimonBritneyDemiLA, showing the pop princess with her new co-workers: Simon, LA Reid and Demi. See the photo, HERE!

Britney and Demi (whose first official "X Factor" promo photos appear above) will replace the departed Nicole Scherzinger and Paula Abdul, who left the show after one season, along with host Steve Jones.
"Not to be negative about the people leaving, but we just felt the mix could be more effective and more entertaining," Peter Rice, entertainment chairman for the Fox Networks Group, told reporters earlier in the day on Monday.

Back in February, Simon spoke to Access Hollywood's Billy Bush where the reality mogul said "X Factor" would be a "walk in the park" for Britney.

"I'm fascinated by [Britney.] The fact that she's one of the most talked about - not just pop stars - but people in the world today, means that you've got this star power," Simon told Billy at the time. "This girl has got resilience. I would think that if she's managed to sustain a family, a career, which is tough, ['X Factor' would be] a walk in the park."

While Simon is clearly impressed with the chops Britney will bring to the table, not everyone appears to agree. During a press conference earlier this month, new "America's Got Talent" judge Howard Stern said he doesn't think the pop princess will bring much to the judges' table.

"As far as any real criticism, I think Simon [Cowell] and L.A. Reid will be doing that. I think Britney is going to stand there and eat a lollipop and wear a sexy outfit. I don't anticipate great opinions out of her," Stern said. "I think she's going to sit there like J.Lo and [say], 'Oh, you're wonderful. You're terrific. Do you think I could get a perfume endorsement out of this? You think I could perform on the show?' I think that's what it's about.

Tiger Woods has still had the feat to be the greatest


Tiger Woods has proved that he still has the quality to show how great he is. He is a man with a mission Friday as he birdied four holes and in the process broke 70 for the first time in 10 rounds to make the cut at the $9.5 million US PGA Players Championship. Woods would have missed the cut in back-to-back events for the first time in his professional career if he had failed to reach the weekend at the TPC at Sawgrass.

In addition to Woods, who fired a four-under par 68, seventy-one other players made the cut, including last week’s winner Rickie Fowler, who shot a second-round 69 as part of Woods’ group and is at 3 under for the tournament. Fowler had been 0-for-2 at The Players.

Woods, in a tie for 30th, trails a trio of leaders by six shots —Zach Johnson, Matt Kuchar and KevinNa.

“I probably could have gotten one or two more out of (the round),” USA Today quotes Woods as saying. “But I really played well today. I was just very consistent, and nothing spectacular, just real solid golf. … I was trying to just keep plugging along. I ended up making four in a row there. And then at 12 I had just a little flip sand wedge in there and make par, and I thought I stuffed it there at 13. It was a foot or two from being a kick-in. It would have been a really nice stretch there.

“I was trying to shoot my number (66) today, and I thought that would put me four or five back. I figured that would have been a good way to go into the weekend, being probably four or five back. It would have put me four back.

While Woods’ burst of birdies help ensure his spot at TPC Sawgrass, Rory McIlroy didn’t fare as well.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports that the U.S. Open champion, who only last week lost in a three-way playoff at Quail Hollow, opened his second round with a birdie — and then didn’t make another one and instead came come with five bogeys.

He shot 76 and missed the cut for the first time in more than a year, though it wasn’t unusual at TPC Sawgrass. In three appearances at the Players Championship, McIlroy has never broken par or made the cut.

“Hopefully, I’m coming back here for another 20 years,” McIlroy, just 23-years-old, said. “If I don’t figure it out on my 20th, there’s something wrong.”

Christina Aguilera Hate Tony Lucca! a question raised in "The Voice"


Christina Aguilera

The final four contestants of the NBC singing contest series "The Voice" took to the stage on Monday a day before the season 2 finale, with what has become expected drama from dominant coaches Christina Aguilera and Adam Levine.

Monday's pre-finale episode saw the two butt heads once again with regard to Levine's contestant, Tony Lucca. The Michigan native, whose history of appearing on "The All New Mickey Mouse Club" with Aguilera when they were younger has been a dominant storyline on "The Voice," has drawn mostly lukewarm and negative critiques from Aguilera.

The show’s meanest coach has been inexplicably hating on the fan-favorite finalist since day one, and her wrath came out so strongly May 7 that Adam Levine reportedly had to step in and shut her down!


Christina was said to be offended by Tony’s decision to sing Jay-Z‘s “99 Problems,” leading to a pre-show clash with Adam, who nobly stepped up to bat for his artist. Adam publicly squashed the feud by baring a “Team Xtina” shirt during the live show, but Christina wasn’t ready to make nice as easily.

“Your beautiful wife and your daughter and family are here tonight, and I just thought the lyrical connotation was a little derogatory towards women,” she told Tony after his performance, though she did acknowledge he “sounded great.” Christina was also nowhere to be seen when Adam and Tony performed their duet.

I’m sorry, but since when is Christina a shining beacon of female empowerment? And what exactly would she choose as an anthem for her cause? “Dirrty”? Because I’m pretty sure that little chart topper — and its accompanying music video, rife with ass-less chaps — represented women in the worst light possible.

And this was merely the latest in a long line of disses Christina served to Tony throughout the season. It began when she didn’t recognize him during his audition, despite starring alongside him in The Mickey Mouse Club for two years in the ’90s, the continued as she delivered harsh, irrational critiques of his performances.
“I hope this is really a contest about the voice,” Christina said one week. “I think there are just better voices on the show, rather than a celebrity sway kind of thing.” She’s also accused Tony of being a one-note performer.

“All of the other coaches have been pretty respectful about each other’s choices, but now it seems like she’s just flat-out trying to get me out of here,” Tony told People earlier this month.

I don’t know what Christina’s problem is, but it’s clear she’s not on Team Tony. I know it, the viewers know it, and worst of all, Tony knows it. But will her endless tirade against her fellow Mouseketeer cost him the competition? We’ll find out tonight when The Voice crowns the winner of season two!

Newly wed Carrie Underwood thinks a baby would mess things up right now


Grammy-winning Country music icon Carrie Underwood has told US Weekly that she and her husband of 21 months Mike Fisher aren’t quite ready to start a family because it would interfere with their already busy lives.

Carrie and her husband Fisher
She has  just released her new album Blown Away and superbusy with his work. Her husband who is a hockey player is also super busy competing in the Western Conference semifinals with his team, the Nashville Predators, which takes on the Phoenix Coyotes on Friday, May 4.

“We’re good. I’m super busy and he is super busy. We are still newlyweds,” Underwood, 29, explained to Us Weekly Magazine. “I honestly think that if we brought a kid into it would mess things up right now! We’re good right now!”

Though the couple, who wed in July 2010, spend long periods of time apart because of their jobs — Fisher is a professional hockey player for the Nashville Predators; Underwood is currently on tour to promote her new album, Blown Away   — Carrie says they take advantage of technology to shorten the gap when they are apart.

“We talk on the phone quite a bit, but we are not the kind of people who need to talk to each other every second of the day. We will text sweet little ‘I love yous.’ He will send me pictures of (my dogs) on a daily basis and makes sure that I know they are okay.”

Besides gushing about her husband and dishing on her plans to hold off on children, Underwood, who won season 4 of “American Idol,” also recently returned to the show’s stage to perform a single off her new album, Blown Away.

She performed the record’s title track on Thursday’s episode of “American Idol,” the same night contestant Skylar Laine, another country singer, was eliminated from the competition. After the the show, Underwood told Hollywoodlife.com it felt good to be back on the American Idol stage.

“It’s really nice that they let me come back, I mean it’s such an amazing show and for me to actually be a part of it is very cool and very special to me,” Carrie said.

Amanda Seufried is playing the role of Linda Lovelace, a porno star in "Lovelace"


Jennifer's Body actress Amanda Seufried has stepped into a new role of porno star in the upcoming film "Lovelace" a part of the character itself. Linda Lovelace, the role in which Seufried is playing, was dubbed the "first erotic superstar" and who rose to fame with the 1972 porn film "Deep Throat." The film also stars James Franco, Sarah Jessica Parker, Wes Bentley, Sharon Stone, Hank Azaria, Chloe Sevigny and Peter Sarsgaard.

Lovelace, whose real name was Linda Susan Boreman, died at age 53 in a 2002 car crash. Despite the success of "Deep Throat" - one of the first adult films to enter mainstream pop culture, the actress later denounced her pornography career and became an anti-porn activist.

During her life, Lovelace wrote two "pro-porn" autobiographies in 1974 - "Inside Linda Lovelace" and "The Intimate Diary of Linda Lovelace" and two anti-porn books - "Ordeal" in 1980 and "Out of Bondage" in 1986.

"Lovelace" is tentatively set for release later this year. The title role is played by Seyfried, who rose to fame with the 2004 film "Mean Girls" with Lindsay Lohan and also starred on the HBO series "Big Love" as the daughter of a polygamist.

Seyfried, 26, has played racy roles before. The blonde actress appeared nude in a lesbian sex scene with "Boogie Nights" actress Julianne Moore in the 2009 film "Chloe." In recent celebrity photos from the set of "Lovelace" near Los Angeles, Seyfried sports brunette hair and several scantily clad outfits, including one that includes booty shorts and high boots, as seen on the website Just Jared.

It was announced in January that Sarah Jessica Parker would play feminist activist Gloria Steinem in the porn star biopic, replacing Demi Moore, who dropped out amid a recent health crisis. The movie began filming on Dec. 20, 2011, weeks after Moore, 49, announced in November that she had decided to end her six-year marriage to Ashton Kutcher, 33.

In "Lovelace," Sarsgaard plays Chuck Traynor, her first husband. Lovelace said in her 1980 autobiography "Ordeal" that he forced her to marry him, beat her and forced her into performing "unspeakable perversions on film." Wes Bentley stars as Lovelace's second husband Larry Marchiano. The two had a son and a daughter together before divorcing in 1996.

Steinem, 77, was a founding member of the New York-based feminist group "Women Against Pornography" and wrote about Lovelace in a 1980 article in Ms. Magazine, in which she said Traynor forced the actress into prostitution. That year, Lovelace took part in one of the group's New York protests that called for theater owners to stop showing "Deep Throat."

Sharon Stone, 58, plays Lovelace's mother. Her father will be portrayed by Robert Patrick, who played Bud Maybury on "Big Love" and the evil cyborg T-1000 in the 1991 film "Terminator 2: Judgment Day."

Chloe Sevigny, who played sister wife Nicolette Grant on "Big Love," portrays a "feminist reporter on an assignment from a men's mag to find out who the real Linda Lovelace is," the film's spokesperson told OnTheRedCarpet.com. James Franco portrays Playboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner.

Others confirmed cast members include "The Simpsons" star Hank Azaria as the director of "Deep Throat," "Entourage" actress Debi Mazar and Adam Brody of "The O.C. as Lovelace's co-stars and Juno Temple as her best friend.

Lindsay Lohan was originally cast to play Lovelace, but in November, it was announced that the film would move on without her following her extended stay in rehab.

In this film there are other renowned hot Hollywood players: Hank Azaria, Wes Bentley, Bobby Cannavale, James Franco, Chris Noth, Sarah Jessica Parker, Robert Patrick, Eric Roberts, Chloe Sevigny, Sharon Stone and Juno Temple. She is also working in another new film "Les Misérables."
