Eight Items or Less: The Hills Shall Return, Adrian Grenier and Jessica Stam Shall Host Charity: Ball and the Guy that Played McLovin Shall Star in New Movie
By Alexis Swerdloff
1. OMGeee. The Hills have officially been renewed for a fourth season on MTV.
2. Adrien Grenier and Jessica Stam are hosting The 2nd Annual Charity: Ball on December 17th benefiting clean-water-related endeavors featuring a super-special musical performance. We know who the super-special musical performer is… and we’ll give you a hint. They were on the cover PAPER not so long ago… Click here to buy tickets.
3. Check out a snippet off of Steve Aoki’s nutty and amazing-seeming new album Pillowface & His Airplane Chronicles out on Jan. 22.
4. If you, like us, are fans of dancing eyebrows then check out the new Spank Rock and Benny Blanco video for “B.O.O.T.A.Y.”
5. Here’s a movie that sounds right up our alley… “Christopher Mintz-Plasse, known as McLovin in the summer hit Superbad, will reunite with producer Judd Apatow for Columbia's Year One, a comedy set in biblical times.
Oliver Platt, David Cross, Vinnie Jones and Juno Temple are also in final negotiations for the film. The movie stars Jack Black and Michael Cera and is being directed by Harold Ramis. Filming is set to begin in January in Louisiana and New Mexico.”

Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story Trailer Has Us in a Tizzy!
By Alexis Swerdloff
I saw Superbad on opening night and it was supergood (sorry). While we enjoyed seeing Jonah Hill get period blood all over his leg, a highlight of the movie-going experience was getting to watch the trailer for Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, the John C. Reilly/Jenna Fischer Walk the Line spoof. It looks pretty amazing, no? It's produced by Man of the Hour Judd Apatow and features, among other folks, a cameo by Jack White as Elvis! Can't wait. It's out December 21.

Superbad Looks SuperbadASS
By Shanon Kelley
Ummmm... George Michael (aka Michael Cera from the best show of all time, Arrested Development) starring in his own movie?! YES PLEASE! Superbad comes out August 17th. And after watching this trailer, tell me the truth -- how amazing does this movie look?
And now after doing further research I've discovered an amazing site -- Clark and Michael -- that features Cera and his friend doing seemingly normal but really funny stuff. I originally stumbled upon one of their episodes on youtube wherein Clark takes Michael to play miniature golf. It was quite witty.
I also happen to know that Cera is into the music scene as well. He's buddies with the band, Oh No! Oh My!, and has been seen attending their shows in Los Angeles. Oh George Michael, how I love you so.
