Justin Timberlake, Minka Kelly, Kellan Lutz Heat Up GQ Men Of The Year Party

At last night’s party for the GQ Men of the Year, our friends over at MTV News asked a very important question: Who would win in a fight, GQ’s Men or People’s Sexiest Men?

“I’ll take on the whole entire cast of Parks and Recreation. I’ll leave Justin [Timberlake] to take care of Glee and Jimmy Fallon could karate-chop the rest of those guys,” GQ honoree Jay-Z joked. And Joe Manganiello, who made People’s list of 25 Sexy Chests to Be Thankful For (amen!), had the most brilliant idea: “I think we should do it for charity!”

While we get in line for tickets to that one (please, powers that be, make it happen!), let’s take a look at some of the hottest fashions on display at last night’s festivities, from men (the likes of Kellan Lutz, Armie Hammer and Josh Hutcherson) and women (Minka Kelly, Sarah Silverman, Emma Roberts and more).

Anna Faris Is Terrible In Bed, Says Anna Faris

This is exactly why we’re going to love Anna Faris in her upcoming movie What’s Your Number? What other gorgeous blond leading lady would promote her sexy new rom-com by talking about terrible she is at the art of lovemaking? Very, very few. “I’m not a very good lover,” Faris apparently told Marie Claire‘s Joanna Coles at a screening of the film this Tuesday. “I’m so nervous about my sexuality.” Now, are you going to get gold like that from a Katherine Heigl or a Reese Witherspoon? Not on your life.

To illustrate another way in which she is distinctly unlike the protagonist of her upcoming film, the House Bunny star makes it clear that she is nowhere near the 20 partner limit set forth in the movie’s plot. “I’m at five,” Faris, who is married to Parks and Recreation‘s Chris Pratt, explained. “Don’t you think five is kind of low? I’m 34!” And she admits her actual age! This woman is so great, we’re going to give her a pass on Scream 3 and 4. Well…at least 4.

Do We Like Anna Faris’ New Hair?

That’s a lot of change. Anna Faris has gone from sunshine beauty to a brunette pixie for her new movie The Dictator. That’s the one with Sacha Baron Cohen in it! Anna play’s his love interest in the film, so we know it’s going to be a riot. But with regards to her hair — we still don’t know whether this a wig or not. Our guess is that it is because H’wood actresses gotta be careful with the ‘do. She’s got the face to pull it off, but it’s such a drastic change! We’re still wrapping our heads around it and we’d like to know what you think. Vote away!

Anna Faris’ What’s Your Number? Trailer Full Of Funny Hunks

Anna Faris‘ romantic comedy What’s Your Number? doesn’t come out in America until this fall, but the international trailer—despite a visual quality that suggests it was found on a VHS tape from 1998—should definitely get you excited. Among the ex-boyfriends Anna hunts down to see if she missed “the one” are Andy Samberg, Zachary Quinto, Joel McHale, Anthony Mackie, Thomas Lennon, Martin Freeman and real-life husband Chris Pratt, with Chris Evans playing the helpful cad next door who probably winds up being Mr. Right.

Despite the predictability of the plot, Faris (who was an executive producer on the film) clearly holds her own against this formidable line-up of funny guys—we want to see more of when her fake English accent slips into “full Borat.” Plus Number, based the novel 20 Times A Lady and written by Seinfeld/Simpsons scribe Jennifer Crittenden and Scrubs writer Gabrielle Allen, looks way more enjoyably Apatow-ian than your usual movie about a woman afraid to face 30 on her own. Now you just have to wait until late September to see it!

The Top 25 Fictional Stoners In Cinematic History

While the negative effects of smoking marijuana have been portrayed on film for over seventy years, the current age of stoner-friendly cinema can largely be credited to one Judd Apatow. As the unofficial ringleader of the Frat Pack, he wrote, directed and produced a veritable bumper crop of pro-Mary Jane films over the last half-dozen years or so. Films like Knocked Up, Pineapple Express and Superbad worked very hard to smash the stigma that the Reagan administration attached to the cannabis plant, and their tremendous success at the box office unquestionably played a role (albeit, likely, a minor one) in the “Legalize It” movement that is slowly gaining steam in both Red and Blue states.

Although Apatow had nothing to do with this weekend’s release of the latest entrant in the stoner-friendly canon, the medieval fantasy Your Highness (get it?), we here at TheFABLife figured now is as good a time as any to countdown our all-time, Top 25 fictional stoners in cinematic history. From the trailblazing likes of Cheech Marin to the nonsense-spewing Jay of Clerks fame, from the highly paranoid/confessional behavior of Nicole Kidman’s character in Eyes Wide Shut to the perpetually buzzed Wooderson in Dazed and Confused, we hope you enjoy this look at cinema’s most baked characters, maaaaaan!

The ’80s Shows Up To See Itself At Take Me Home Tonight Premiere

Usually when a movie’s been on the shelf for over three years, the stars usually don’t want anything to do with it once it finally comes out—don’t mention Case 39 to Renee Zellweger or Bradley Cooper. So it’s hopefully a sign of relative quality that Topher Grace, Anna Faris, Michelle Trachtenberg and Dan Fogler all showed up for the premiere of Take Me Home Tonight, which they filmed all the way back in 2007. Sure, Faris met husband Chris Pratt on the set, but again…that didn’t mean much to Renee and Brad.

Also impressive is how many ’80s figures showed up to celebrate the film celebrating their decade of stardom: Deborah Gibson, Anthony Michael Hall, Ralph Macchio and Tawny Kitaen were just a few of the icons on hand, with future nostalgia marketers like Lance Bass and 50 Cent (wearing a velvet suit jacket!) on hand to take notes. Celebrity Rehab vets Leif Garrett and Rachel Uchitel showed up together as well—hope the on-screen coke use that kept the film off the market for so long wasn’t distracting for them.

New Zealand Tourism Deparment Apologizes To Anna Faris

Given how sweet she seems in real life, Anna Faris is the last actress we’d imagine would piss off an entire nation. However, the New Zealand Tourism Board apologized to Faris today for her unpleasant experience with the men down under…and, um, for making fun of her in the press. Apparently Faris spoke to Lopez Tonight about two carloads of Kiwi men who screamed “F–k you, a–hole!” and “Show me your t–s you stupid b—h!” at the Yogi Bear actress. “Ms. Faris spoke about disrespectful behavior she experienced during her stay in New Zealand and as a consequence her impression of New Zealand men is, to say the least, poor,” a rep admits. Yeah, doesn’t exactly make us want to pack our bags for a nineteen-hour flight either.

While the tourism board didn’t exactly send the car full of jerks after Anna, they did bad-mouth Faris to the New Zealand Herald, insinuating the actress might be lying. “She accepts an award for being a pothead stoner of the year… I don’t think she has any credibility,” their spokesman scoffed at the time. Apologizes the rep today, “The inference that Tourism NZ did not take Ms. Faris’ comments seriously is very much regretted and was certainly not intended.” Now if Anna will only apologize for Yogi Bear, we’ll be that much closer to world peace.

TheFABLife’s Ten Biggest Hollywood Hacks Of 2010

Katherine Heigl, Brendan Fraser, Nic Cage & Boo Boo

It can happen to the best of us. One minute you’re lounging in your silken dressing robes, sipping cognac while you stare into a fire made out of $100 bills, the next minute you realize, whoops, you forgot to make those lease payments on your private island! For the past 12 years! Oh, did we mention that you’re a famous actor in this scenario?

Rather than pull a Wesley Snipes (too soon?) and settle for homemade toilet wine while serving 3-5, most actors would instead start taking any role they can get to pump their bank accounts back into shape. And we do mean any: a filthy wizard, a GCI Great Dane, even a Katherine Heigl type. So we offer for your approval the Ten Biggest Hollywood Hacks of 2010, ten actors who seemed almost certainly to have been in it for the money, tax issues or otherwise. The economy might be in the gutter, but that doesn’t mean celebrities can’t get paid millions of dollars to star in awful, awful movies. By the way, are you going to finish that toilet wine?

Anna Faris Sexts Her Dad By Accident, Parts Of Our Souls Die

anna-faris-zippergettyimages

We all have nightmares about it, but leave it to Anna Faris to accidentally sext her dad. As the Yogi Bear star explained to Ellen DeGeneres in an interview airing next Tuesday, she used to sext husband Chris Pratt all the time…until the unthinkable happened. “But one time I was sending him a text and I accidentally sent it to my dad. I wrote, ‘I can’t wait to see you in bed tonight,’” explained Faris. NOOOOOOOOO! Faris never actually mentioned the text to her dad after that (who would?), so her apology on Ellen will be the first time she’s ever addressed it. The text was sent a year ago, so unfortunately it’s way too late to prevent Papa Faris from setting his phone on fire and throwing it into a lake.

Whispering sweet nothings into her dad’s inbox, however, isn’t the most disturbing mistake Anna’s made while texting. “There was a close call with my husband’s nephew who’s like nine years old. I know. We’ve stopped now,” Faris revealed. So is Anna just mashing her hand into the dial pad instead of dialing? In case anyone needs more evidence that fourth-graders shouldn’t have cell phones, this would have to be it. [Photo: Getty Images]

GQ Men Of The Year Are Way More Fashion-Forward Than We Can Comprehend

gq_main

If this were any other event, we would just assume that Johnny Knoxville, Kid Rock and Michael Kenneth Williams made poor fashion choices and then proceed to mock them mercilessly. But they were invited to the GQ Men of the Year Gala last night at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles. And we were not. So we have to assume that they are just operating on a level that we mere fashion mortals cannot comprehend.

You may think these suits are sort of hideous, but in five years you’ll have one in every color! Way to stay ahead of the curve, guys. Thankfully some other ladies and gents were a little less fashion forward. Twi-Bros Kellan Lutz and Taylor Lautner donned dapper suits, Glee peeps Chris Colfer, Kevin McHale and Cory Monteith ditched their school attire, and Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino even kept his shirt on. Check out the hits and misses in the gallery below!
