<p>– Ha, James Franco's <a href="http://observer.com/2012/05/blogger-james-franco-takes-issue-with-new-york-observer/">insane ramblings on HuffPost</a> are now showing <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/james-franco/a-search-for-the-real-_b_2117359.html">strong signs of histrionics</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Oh yeah, I got nominated for a National Entertainment Journalism award for these HuffPost blogs, but no other outlet is going to run that story, right? Hahaha--why would Gawker or <em>The New York Post</em> want to publicize that an actor/Yale doctoral candidate is nominated for an award for something that they are doing themselves? I'm pretty proud of it, but I can see why they must hate me.</p></blockquote>
<p><!--more--><br />
Of course we care, actor/Yale doctoral candidate, James Franco! And we don't hate you! We're so glad you wrote a letter to a friend named R______, where you sort of talk about your feelings about <em>Flight</em> and <em>The Sessions</em>, and then decided just to post it on HuffPost, like a real journalist! (Like <a href="http://www.celebuzz.com/2012-10-29/celebuzz-dominates-2012-national-entertainment-journalism-awards-with-6-nominations/">Celebuzz</a>, who was nominated for six of those awards!)</p>
<p>– It could happen to you: Janeane Garofalo was accidentally married for 20 years without realizing it, she recently told audiences at the New York Comedy Festival. No joke, <a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/comic_marriage_no_joke_A369JNy9VtVmDKkeOxSdNP">she thought her Vegas marriage had been a joke</a>, and wouldn't stick in the eyes of the law.</p>
<p>– Here are the videos of 50 Cent <a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/stacylambe/50-cent-attempts-to-sell-headphones-on-qvc">trying to sell his line of headphones/kiss the ladies</a> on QVC:</p>

<p>– <em>The New York Times</em>’s profile on Jennifer Lawrence <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/11/movies/jennifer-lawrence-in-silver-linings-playbook.html?pagewanted=2">included a fun fact</a> about the time at the Academy Awards when she didn't win for <em>Winter's Bone</em>:<br />
"She did get her share of mementos, like M&amp;M’s with her photo on them. 'That literally was probably the coolest thing that I saw,' she said. 'I was like: ‘You know what? It’s all worth it’ after I saw those M&amp;M’s.'</p>
