Megan Fox

Megan Fox, Hollywood’s current flavor of the week, does not see eye to eye with her director in the movies “Transformers” and “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.” She said to Entertainment Weekly that Bay relied “on special effects rather than the acting in the two “Transformers” films.”

Bay’s reaction? Grow up.

He has also said that “Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in ‘Transformers.’”

Fox is more of the opinion that her sexiness and looks are what got her started in 2007 in the original “Transformers” role, and that now she’s getting to do what she set out to do, which is to become an actress.

While Fox admits that movies like the “Transformers” franchise are aimed at young men, she has no trouble catering to their tastes. “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” opens with Fox as Mikaela, filmed from behind on a motorcycle in short shorts and boots.

Bay’s reasoning was, “We got that first shot out of the way, just to get it out for the young boys … and moved on.”

Fox says that the popularity of the first “Transformers” movie meant she could get parts that she otherwise couldn’t have. She is scheduled to star with Josh Brolin and John Malkovich in “Jonah Hex,” a sci-fi western, and she is also headlining “Jennifer’s Body,” which is a supernatural comedy written by Diablo Cody, the Oscar-winning screenwriter of the movie “Juno.”

Vanessa Hudgens

Like her High School Musical co-star Zac Efron, Vanessa Hudgens is getting out of the business of making musicals. Right now, she wants to focus on acting. She told MTV, “I love musicals, I really do. I grew up doing them, so it’ll always have a place in my heart. At the same time, it’s nice to be able to separate the two and just be able to focus on films.”

Vanessa is currently filming her first role that is not in a musical in the film Beastly, a retelling of the classic Beauty and the Beast story that is set to open in 2010. Like Efron, Hudgens would like to distance herself from musicals to avoid being typecast and limiting her career.

So far that doesn’t appear to be a problem, as she recently took a role in the upcoming Zack Snyder film Sucker Punch. Snyder is famous as the director of the movie 300. Hudgens is thrilled to be able to work with Snyder, telling MTV, “It’s an honor, I’m such a big fan of his work.”

Sucker Punch is the story of a girl whose abusive stepfather institutionalizes her. To survive, she retreats into a fantasy world, where she eventually comes up with a plan of escape.

Britney Spears may be busy touring the world, but that doesn’t mean she can’t take a minute out to view a movie script (or wear clothes with stains on them.) According to reports,  Continue reading at Hollywood Choas

Ed Hardy clothing founder Christian Audigier tells TMZ his company will be the next tenant of the Holmby Hills mansion where Michael Jackson died … and he’ll relocate headquarters there in December.

Audigier — who was a close friend of Jackson — will be leasing the mansion from Ed Hardy CEO Hubert Guez, who owns the estate.

Jackson leased the 7-bedroom, 13-bath French chateau since January — shelling out a $100,000 a month.

A private funeral was held Tuesday at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles for actress Farrah Fawcett, who died June 25 after a long battle with cancer.

Her longtime partner Ryan O’Neal and best friend Alana Stewart both wore black as they arrived at the Roman Catholic cathedral around 4 p.m. PST for the private service.

Along with dad O’Neal, Fawcett’s son Redmond, 24 - who was allowed to leave jail (where he is serving a sentence for drug-related charges) to attend the service - helped carry her casket, covered in yellow and orange flowers, inside the funeral home. Continue reading at Glam Baby Bumps…

Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson recently told Entertainment Weekly that she and her new husband, actor Ryan Reynolds, don’t discuss their careers when they’re chilling at home.

Johansson and Reynolds married in a private ceremony last fall, and they believe that by not bringing work home and chatting about movie making, they allow each other to simply be themselves. Said Reynolds, “We don’t have a lot of work talk around the house. We both prefer to just be ourselves at home. There’s no competition between us - we just don’t talk about it.”

They’re not the only famous filmmaking couple to leave the shop talk at work, director Sam Mendes, who directed his wife, actress Kate Winslet in the recent movie Revolutionary Road, says that when the two work together, they avoid bringing work home to keep some sanity in their home life, and because they’re basically too tired at the end of a long day on set.

However, when they are working on separate projects, they’re fine discussing it. Mendes said, “It can be really enjoyable because you’re hearing what’s going on on the set and what her problems might be tomorrow, and that’s really interesting.”
