| 5 Facts About Charlene Wittstock, Future Princess of Monaco Posted: 31 May 2011 09:29 AM PDT
1. She’s from Zimbabwe. Charlene was born in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, and is of German, South African, and Rhodesian heritage. 2. She’s an Olympian. A champion swimmer, Charlene competed for South Africa in the backstroke. Her highest Olympic finish was in the 2000 games in Sydney, where she was a member of the 4×100 medley. The team finished in fifth place. Charlene met her future husband when she was in Monaco for a swim competition. A shoulder injury ended her career despite Charlene’s dreams of competing one last time in 2008′s Beijing Games. 3. She’s taking princess lessons. Charlene and Albert were linked together as early as 2000, but they made few public appearances before announcing their engagement in 2010. Though Charlene grew up Protestant, she converted to Roman Catholicism (this was not a royal requirement, but her own decision). She has also been learning French and the Mongeanesque dialect, which is spoken in Monaco. She attended the royal wedding this April and has met and gotten to know many members of the European royal families. 4. She’s about to become a stepmother. Albert has two children, Jazmin Grimaldi and Alexandre Coste. Though he acknowledges them both, they cannot ascend to the throne in Monaco because they were not conceived within a marriage. 5. She’s involved in charity work. Like many royals, Charlene has expressed an interest in philanthropy and charity work. Her pet cause is the Special Olympics, which was founded by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, and is the patron for their Monaco chapter. She has also said that after her marriage she would like to do development work for athletes’ organizations. Although she no longer swims competitively, she has taken part in charity swimming events like the Midmar Mile. Post from: Crushable 5 Facts About Charlene Wittstock, Future Princess of Monaco  |

| Lionsgate Confirms Writers of ‘Hunger Games’ Script Posted: 31 May 2011 10:15 AM PDT
There was a leaked script that was Ray’s earlier draft, but from the beginning director Gary Ross has been saying that he told Ray he’d be fiddling with the script before shooting. Over the weekend, a Lionsgate studio rep quickly stepped in and tweeted that for the moment, the producers had moved beyond Ray’s draft: When asked for any thoughts about his script being replaced, Ray simply said, “I don’t have any.” This is fabulous news, since it confirms that Collins will remain an integral part of the series’ adaptation to film (though we already knew that from how she publicly supported Lionsgate’s casting decisions) and because Ross has also penned the screenplays for Big and Pleasantville. The latter’s satirical bent could really enhance Collins’ commentary on reality TV and televised war. Shooting for The Hunger Games has begun in North Carolina, and the movie is set to be released on March 23, 2012. Post from: Crushable Lionsgate Confirms Writers of ‘Hunger Games’ Script  |
| Love Lessons from ‘The Bachelorette’: Roll the Dice Over and Over and Over Again Posted: 31 May 2011 10:19 AM PDT
Having a cool nickname will help you stand out, but a sob story will help even more. Ashley goes out on a one-on-one date with West, whom I think is adorable. It turns out that his real name is Adam, but he goes by West because of Adam West (as in, the original TV Batman). In the hands of a lesser bachelor (that means you, Mask Guy), this could be totally corny, but on West it’s endearing. But then West switches gears and tells Ashley that he’s a widower – his wife, Sarah, died after having a seizure in their bathtub. Several blogs have alleged that Sarah actually committed suicide, but it’s not mentioned on the show for obvious reasons. If you love someone, you’ll beat a metaphor to death for them. On their Vegas date, Ashley takes the coin-flipping thing and decides to beat it like a dead horse. She and Mickey flip for everything: what to do, what color to bet on, whether Mickey should give Ashley a piggyback ride. Mickey asks Ashley when the last time she cried was. Ashley says it was when she was watching some episodes from last season and seeing how people judged her and reacted to her. Mickey says he doesn’t think that tears are a form of weakness, and Ashley agrees. I have to say – boy is smooth. Wearing a mask all the time is stupid. This is not a love lesson – it’s a life lesson. Jeff insists on still wearing his dumb mask 24/7, and the other bachelors bond over the fact that Jeff is annoying. “We’re not here all to become best buddies,” he says, which is apparently the new way to say “I’m not here to make friends.” It’s a good thing I decided against that “drink every time someone uses a reality-show cliche” thing, because I’d have alcohol poisoning by now. Mama’s boys are sensitive. On their Vegas date, Ashley asks Mickey about his family and he says that his mom died about six years ago. He talks about how much he loved her and what a Mama’s boy he is, and while that might send some women running away, Ashley is really touched and says she loves Mama’s boys. At the end of the date, despite being into Mickey, she suggests flipping a coin. To his credit, Mickey asks her if she’s crazy. (If she’s passing up this dude and keeping MASK GUY around, then yes, she is.) The coin is heads up, so Ashley gives Mickey a rose and then admits she was going to give it to him anyway. Then why do the stupid coin toss? They go for a walk on the beach and Colbie Caillat is there to play a private concert for them. Mickey gets really excited. (See photo.) I think I’m going to have to marry the dude if Ashley messes this up. Mickey says “I hope this is the last first date I ever go on.” Swoooooooooon. When you lose the coin toss of love, the only thing you can do is keep tossing. JP, who was the loser face on the Vegas date coin toss, corners Ashley and offers to flip a coin – if he wins, she has to kiss him. He does; she does. I’m really liking Ashley so far – she has made some weird picks (Bentley’s still around), but she’s pretty honest about her feelings and is self-effacing. Just because you come back with a rose from your date doesn’t mean you have to be a jackass. That’s a direct quote from West, who is possibly my favorite dude in the house. He is hot, and he is correct. If everyone hates you, take off your mask to prove your love. Jeff the Mask Guy finally realizes that everybody hates him. He corners Ashley for a chat and tells her that six years ago he had a brain hemhorrage and his then-wife found him passed out on the bathroom floor. He later divorced his wife and when Ashley asks why he vaguely says that there was some dishonesty. Just as Jeff is about to take his mask off for the big reveal, one of the other dudes – Matt? – interrupts. I think Jeff’s mask removal could end up being like that time Kiss did a photoshoot without makeup. Screen time usually equals roses. Among the rose recipients are JP, Jeff the Mask Guy, and everyone else who got airtime this episode. This theory might be proven untrue next week, though, when the previews seem to indicate that one of the guys quits the show and has the stated goal of making Ashley cry. Real winner, that one.

| Celebrity Lookalikes: New Jersey Housewives and Movie Mob Wives Posted: 31 May 2011 09:27 AM PDT On their best days, the Real Housewives of New Jersey gals are aspirational versions of mob wives from movies and TV. They’ve got the bling, they’ve got the big hair. Unfortunately, they’ve also got a contract with Bravo. Check out our gallery of our favorite Housewives playing dress-up.

| Breaking: ’16 and Pregnant’ Star Ebony Jackson Had a Miscarriage Posted: 31 May 2011 09:42 AM PDT
Ebony was one of my favorites from her season – she was smart and motivated, and she really loved being a mom. She and Josh got married and he joined the Air Force, so they were doing fairly well for themselves and their little family. (And if the rumor that she turned down Teen Mom is true, she’s even awesomer.) I know how awful and painful an experience that miscarriage can be, and we at Crushable wish Ebony the best during this time.

| Donald Sutherland Cast as President Snow in ‘The Hunger Games’ Posted: 31 May 2011 08:27 AM PDT
Although there were other actors I was hoping would snag the role, now that I think about it, Sutherland at least has the chilling voice to threaten Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) during her time in the Hunger Games. Fun fact: In the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie, he played Buffy’s Watcher Merrick, the character that Giles eventually became in the series. The Hunger Games is currently filming in North Carolina and will come to theaters on March 23, 2012. Post from: Crushable Donald Sutherland Cast as President Snow in ‘The Hunger Games’  |

Move over, Kate Middleton – there’s a new royal bride on the scene. Charlene Wittstock will be marrying Prince Albert of Monaco (he’s the son of Grace Kelly) in sure-to-be glamorous and glittery ceremony on July 2. So who is the woman who snared one of the world’s most eligible bachelors, and what do you need to know about her?
Last week, rumors swirled that screenwriter Billy Ray‘s adaptation of Suzanne Collins‘ The Hunger Games would be the final script for the film. The thing is, Ray is not a household name 
Now that we’ve gotten rid of half the guys, it’s time to start learning the names of the bachelors. First up: a one on one date with West. Second: a Vegas date. Two of the guys flip a coin that has their faces on it to determine who goes on it, and Mickey wins. And off we go.
Last week, news broke that two alums of 16 and Pregnant were expecting again – Jordan Ward, whose episode kicked off Season 3, and Ebony Jackson from Season 1. However, Ebony announced
