After-Party Attire: Best of the Met Costume Institute’s Gala

While the Met was swarmed by A-listers Monday night, we only heard news about Beyonce‘s dress this morning. Upstaged by the attendance of Tim Tebow, these celebrities dispersed to three locations the Met in order to fully dance away the pain: the Ukrainian Institute of America, the Boom Boom Room, and Crown all hosted parties that were hit up by roaming models, actors, and musicians.

Daniel Radcliffe Slept with Harry Potter Groupies While Drunk

Oh my Dumbledorfs: Daniel Radcliffe (or as we like to refer to him, the British Elijah Wood), has come out and admitted that he copulated with fans of his Harry Potter films during a recent interview with The Daily Mirror. No, he didn’t have sex during the interview…you know what we mean.

So while we’re all still reeling from the shock that the boy wizard drinks too much alcohol (and is not that funny at live comedy), now we have to come terms that some lucky Muggle got Harry’s wand in their ____ (whatever the magical apparatus equivalent of a vagina is). Read More

The Woman in Black is Frighteningly Mediocre

Harry Potter is six feet under and Daniel Radcliffe is understandably looking for ways to move his career in new directions. Full frontal nudity all over the Internet and singing and dancing his way through a recent Broadway revival of the musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying broadened his fan base beyond the teenybopper rut. Now he’s trying something else: a creepy haunted-house thriller crawling with ghosts from the spirit world called The Woman in Black. It’s not exactly a setback, but it won’t break new ground, either. I’ve had bigger scares from a fish tank. Boring and sedentary, not to mention only occasionally coherent, this creaking-door mystery is not much of a vehicle to display young Mr. Radcliffe’s range and charm. Read More

Daniel Radcliffe as Allen Ginsberg? A History of ‘Howl’-ing Portrayals (Video)

James Franco (and David Cross, John Turturro, et al) have reason to be worried: Harry Potter is about to smash your portrayal of New York beat poet Allen Ginsberg into dust. Daniel Radcliffe, fresh from filming the Victorian horror flick The Woman In Black has reportedly joined the cast of Kill Your Darlings (not to be confused with the 2006 flick with the same name) as the famous (and infamous) part of Jack Kerouac/Ginsberg/Lucien Carr trio.

Harry Potter Saga Comes to a Thrilling End in the Final Film

This is it, kids. Absolutely, positively the end of the Harry Potter series. I feel good about that, knowing I will never have to sit through another installment. The franchise that started 10 years ago and seems more like 10 lifetimes ago has at last written an ultimate “The End.” I’ve outgrown Lilliputian witches and Read More

Dirty Rotten Missionaries: 'The Book of Mormon,' 'How to Succeed in Business,' 'Ghetto Klown' and 'Kin'

There is a dirty secret hidden within The Book of Mormon, the high-profile new musical from the subversive and scatological South Park boys that was widely expected to upend Broadway this spring.

Indeed, the infamously irreverent Trey Parker and Matt Stone–whose long-running hit animated series has skewered nearly everyone, from Hillary Clinton to TV censors, Read More
