Check Out Michelle Williams' Sultry GQ Spread! Oscar Frontrunner Talks Having More Kids, Heath Ledger
Michelle Williams said in her Golden Globes acceptance speech that she was a mother first and actress second. We have one thing to say to that: Whoa, mama!
And if that list didn't have a third, well, it certainly does now: Thanks to the Oscar frontrunner's sultry new spread in GQ (who knew?), the My Week With Marilyn star should add international sex symbol to her ever-growing list of talents.
Marilyn Monroe would be proud.
Inside Heath Ledger's "Tree House"
Looking at his former home in the Hollywood Hills, it's apparent that Heath Ledger liked his privacy.
A secluded, cozy-by-L.A.-standards house once owned by the late actor is on the market for $2.995 million, the second time it's been for sale since his death in January 2008. The property was snatched up that year by a private buyer.
But there's certainly nothing wrong with the bachelor pad on paper.
Michelle Williams Opens Up on Grieving Heath Ledger, Being Single and Kissing Privacy Goodbye
Everyone grieves at their own pace. And it seems like, three and a half years since Heath Ledger's shocking death, Michelle Williams is finally able to move on.
The famously press-shy (with good reason, granted) My Week With Marilyn Star sat down with Vogue to discuss how she came to heal in the aftermath of her loss, how she feels about reentering the dating scene, her lack of privacy and what she most wants to provide for her daughter Matilda.
Test Your Knowledge: Match the Celebrity Godparents to Their Godchildren!
With Lady Gaga officially being given the title of "Godmother" to Elton John's son this week, it got us thinking, Jeez, there are tons of other interesting and kinda weird celeb godparents out there! Actually, there's whole slew of other random celeb godparent and child pairings.
Any guesses who they are? Turns out there are some that make Elton and Gaga's god-relationship seem positively boring by comparison. Check it out:
Michelle Williams "Devastated" by Nightline Interview's Focus on Heath Ledger
Michelle Williams, who is getting rave reviews for her performance in Blue Valentine, is giving a thumbs-down to the way a certain news program handled her recent interview.
"I just had an experience with Nightline that got edited in such a way that seemed as if I did go too far," she tells The Daily Beast. "It was a three-hour interview that was edited in such a way that was devastating to me."
In particular, the aired portion of the conversation that focused on the death of Heath Ledger.
Michelle Williams on Heath Ledger's Death: "I'm Sad to Be Moving Farther and Farther Away From It"
Even now, nearly three years after Heath Ledger's death, Michelle Williams has a hard time dealing.
Breaking her public silence for the first time since his shocking overdose, the actress says in a heart-wrenching interview with ABC's Nightline that she "can't find a meaning" in Ledger's passing, and that it took her a long time to accept that he was gone.
So True? So False? Heath Ledger Back for Next Batman Movie?!
When even just the title of the upcoming third installment garners attention, it's no surprise that the Internet would be all abuzz over whether or not Heath Ledger's Joker will appear in The Dark Knight Rises.
Such speculation can be traced to a New Zealand website that claims director Christopher Nolan is planning on including unused footage of the late actor that was left over from the 2008 sequel.
So, will we once again be hearing that sinister laugh, or is this all just some sort of, er, joke? It turns out this rumor is…
Heath Ledger's Last Residence Back on the Market
The SoHo loft where Heath Ledger was staying when he died has been for sale on the down low for a week. It can be yours for a cool $5 million.
Ledger, who tragically died in the lower Manhattan apartment in early 2008, had been crashing at the place, which at the time was rumored to have belonged to Mary-Kate Olsen. (It didn't.)
In any case, realtors have done their fighting best to rid the place of any residual grimness. So, what's it look like now?
Jake Gyllenhaal: Brokeback Was Just Acting!
Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway team up—and majorly get it on—for the first time since Brokeback Mountain in their new rom-com Love and Other Drugs (which we can't stop raving about).
"It's different because this story is about us," Jake told us on the carpet for his premiere at the AFI Fest presented by Audi. "The other story was about how we were not into each other."
And Gyllenhaal is hoping his chemistry with Hathaway in this flick will set the horny record straight. Way straight:
Blab Blab Blab: Is Aaron Eckhart Coming Back for Batman 3?
"To recreate what Heath has done...I just don't think it's gonna happen. That's my instinct. Obviously, Heath was supposed to reprise the role in the next one; it was written that way. I don't know if they're going to go on. I suspect they will not have the Joker."
—Former Batman baddie Aaron Eckhart when asked at the Comic-Con panel for his latest flick, Battle: Los Angeles, whether he thought Heath Ledger's Oscar-winning Joker would be recast for the third installment of the superhero franchise
Looks like we can put our clown makeup away because director Christopher Nolan realizes exactly why we're so serious that Heath's psychotic criminal mastermind remain untouched. Why have another actor try to fill Heath's shoes when he recreated the character so perfectly, no?
But what about A.E.'s own fate as a foe of the Dark Knight?
