99 Reasons We Love Hollywood: #99-91!
Ian Gavan/Getty Images, Todd Williamson/WireImage
With the bustups of star relationships like Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony, Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, not to mention some TV and movie offerings getting criticized out the wazoo (like Glee and New Year's Eve, respectively), we here at The Awful Truth decided we want to concentrate on the positive: in other words, what we still firmly adore about Hollywood!
Take a look at what we think is working just fine in Tinseltown, thank you very much.
In other words, when marriages and relationships go south and we get down, let's cheer ourselves up with 99 reasons—delivered daily for the next 11 days!—to get our spirits back and soaring!
And you know what the tough part was? Narrowing it down to just 99 inspirations!
And in no particular order, here's our first list of nine great reasons we still love to live in—and for—Hollywood:
Blind Vice: Sugar-Rod O’Keefe Chooses an Anti-Gay Director...on Purpose
Sugar-Rod O'Keefe is nothing new in Hollywood. He's a star who makes a lot of money—and he loves spending it on hookers, both male and female. If you only knew how common this story is Tinseltown!
But something even less known than Sugar-Rod's sexual preference is how anti-gay most of O'Keefe's professional colleagues are, something Sugar not only doesn't mind but thrives on:
Colin Farrell, Elton John, Michael Caine Pay Touching Tribute to Elizabeth Taylor

The memorial was nearly seven months in the making, but last night, 400 of Elizabeth Taylor's family and close friends gathered, rather fittingly, at the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank to pay their final respects to the late great dame.
And who better to memorialize a Hollywood icon than a few of the same? Colin Farrell, surprisingly revealed to be a close friend of the actress after her death, hosted the roughly 75-minute service, which was also attended by Sirs Michael Caine and Elton John, the latter of whom closed out the night by singing an emotional rendition of "Blue Eyes."
The private celebration, which took place at the Steven J. Ross Theater, paid tribute to Taylor's remarkable life, both personally and professionally.
Banned in Britain: Bono, George Clooney, Colin Farrell & Their F-Bomb Dropping Friends
The United Kingdom has had its share of issues with famous folks and their creative output.
But ban Bono's famine-awareness ad?!
The PSA recently produced by his One organization, featuring the U2 frontman, George Clooney, Colin Farrell, Jessica Alba, Kristin Davis, Ewan McGregor and many more dropping bleeped profanities, only to lash out with the real F-word: "Famine."
So, what? Too many F-bombs for British sensibilities? Actually...no.
Watch Bono, Clooney, Alba and Even a Jonas Brother Drop Some Serious F-Bombs
No, not that one. Though this is just as effective a way to get their point across.
Today, ONE.org released a star-studded (and how!) PSA to bring attention to the drought-induced famine (that's the f-word) happening in Somalia. And if you think showing a video of celebrities getting bleeped out is attention-grabbing or offensive—well, that's sort of the point.
"I've been known to drop the occasional expletive, but the most offensive F-word to me is not the one that goes f--k," Bono said. "It's f----e—the famine."
In addition to Bono, the PSA, titled "The F Word: Famine is the Real Obscenity," features effin' appearances by George Clooney, Jessica Alba, Clive Owen, Colin Farrell, Annie Lennox, Ewan McGregor, Rob Lowe, Justin Long, Joe Jonas, Christy Turlington, Evan Rachel Wood, Kristin Davis and more mouthing off in the name of charity.
The stars are asking people to sign their petition imploring Congress to fully fund the Feed the Future program to help put an end to the tragedy.
Afternoon Bitch-Back! Is Superman's Henry Cavill Already a Blind Vice Star?

Dear Ted:
I've never realized it before, but Henry Cavill is impossibly handsome. Have you seen those Superman pictures? This leads me to a familiar question, does he have any Vices?
—Bastiaan
Dear Faster Than a Speeding Bullet:
I'm sure you already know, but he's got a swoon-worthy British accent to match his muscles. No Vices yet though for our latest Superman, but he's still relatively green by H'wood standards. Maybe if he'd actually been cast as Edward Cullen like Stephenie Meyer wanted things would be different.
Dear Ted:
No tears for Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly? Or are you feeling this is a stunt breakup like Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel?
—Tell Me
Katie Holmes and Colin Farrell Do Horror Movies, So Why Not Other Big Stars?
Dreamworks, Miramax
Colin Farrell is doing Fright Night, and Katie Holmes stars in Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, but why aren't there more A-list actors in horror movies?
—Ashleigh G., via the inbox
This answer involves one part math (but it's math with fun symbols), one part psychology, and a bit of unnamed celebrity gossip.
Shall we begin?
Movie Review: Fright Night the Perfect Amount of Vampires, Gore and Colin Farrell
DreamWorks
Review in a Hurry: Teen D-bag Charlie Brewster (Anton Yelchin) fears his nerdy ex-friend Ed (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) will reveal his own former nerd status. But there's a much nastier problem awaiting him than being a social outcast...Jerry the vampire has just moved in right next door.
The original Fright was the Scream of its age—filled with very clever quips about horror movies and quite bit of blood. The new one? Half the humor, twice the gore. Still, casting Colin Farrell as the fanged one is a big win.
Colin Farrell Bites Into Breaking Dawn Competition!
Summit Entertainment
The more vamps the merrier, right?
We think so, at least. ‘Cause we can't get enough of the sexy fanged fellahs, from True Blood's Alexander Skarsgård to Twilight's Robert Pattinson. Well, now there's a new hunky member of the undead: Colin Farrell's Fright Night alter-ego, Jerry.
But how does Jer stack up to our beloved Edward Cullen? We know who'd win in a glitter-off, but—at the Comic-Con press conference for the flick—we had to ask Colin Farrel who would win in a fight between their bloodsucking big screen personas.
And the winner is...
How to Get Channing Tatum to Smack You in the Face, and More Comic-Con Highlights
Relativity Media
Channing Tatum's a pretty brawny guy, in case you hadn't noticed.
And he's also a gentleman, which means being asked to hit a woman—multiple times—in Steven Soderbergh's new ensemble thriller Haywire, gave him pause.
"In the beginning of the movie I have to hit her with a ketchup bottle," Tatum said today durin the Relativity panel at Comic-Con, referring to MMA fighter Gina Carano, who's making her feaure-film debut. "I couldn't do it."
But, of course, he had to do it. So what did his desirable and deadly costar do to break the ice?
