Kristen Stewart has been dropped from the Snow White and the Huntsman sequel after Rupert Sanders' wife Liberty Ross made it clear that Sanders would not be working with her again if he had any interest in Gorilla Gluing the shattered Chia pet of their marriage back together.
So how does the studio explain the absence of heroine Snow White? They shift the focus to the other eponymous character: Chris Hemsworth's. Working title: The Huntsman and the Edible Arrangements-With-Champagne Party Pack That Everyone Involved With This Must Be Sending Their Publicists Right Now. [Radar Online]
Wait, or she was never contractually obligated? But she did say before all this shit that she wanted to be in it? Hollywood is confusing. [E! Online]
Furthermore, after wishing and hoping and thinking and praying that she could win him back once "the dust settled," a source says that K-Stew has "realized" and "accepted" that her relationship with Robert Pattinson is over but wants to stay best friends, because they have that whole inalienable bond of being extremely Twilight-famous.

So apparently Brad Pitt called Jennifer Aniston and wished her the best of luck with fiancee Justin Theroux as his own wedding to Angelina Jolie draws nigh.
He jokingly asked if he should "save the date," and they both laughed.
I am picturing a real-life version of the Crazed GChat Laugh, which is less "funny ha-ha" and more "a small explosion of mixed feelings," like:
Jen: AHAHHAHHA
Brad: lol
Jen is typing...
Brad: ?
Jen has entered text
Brad: haha no but actually like
Brad: maybe we should just have a double wedding
Brad: is that crazy
Jen is offline and can't receive messages right now.

For the first time in nearly 40 years, long-running CBS game show The Price Is Right, now hosted by Drew Carey, is searching for Manna White male models to appear regularly. The auditions will be chronicled on the show's YouTube page and viewers will choose a winner. The contestants will be judged on "qualities such as their verbal skills, posing and ability to properly showcase a product."
(Yes, I know Vanna White was on Wheel of Fortune, but let's not split hairs, for the God of Puns must have his great and terrible breakfast.) [CBS News]
More of Richard Burton's private diaries have emerged, and the late actor continues to put modern wedding vows to shame when he writes about Elizabeth Taylor:
I have been inordinately lucky all my life but the greatest luck of all has been Elizabeth. She has turned me into a model man but not a prig, she is a wildly exciting lover-mistress, she is shy and witty, she is nobody's fool.
She is a brilliant actress, she is beautiful beyond the dreams of pornography, she can be arrogant and willful, she is clement and loving. She is Sunday's child, she can tolerate my impossibilities and my drunkenness, she is an ache in the stomach when I am away from her and she loves me. She is the prospectus that can never be entirely catalogued, an almanac for poor Richard. And I shall love her forever.
Man, it is so easy to forget that the other 90% of the time, those two were unbalanced alcoholics who ranted and threw gimlets at each other. That's the only shitty part of all this. Oh, wait—
Burton's diaries were given to Swansea University by his widow, Sally Burton.
OK, not the only shitty part. [Daily Mail]
Chelsea Handler told Marie Claire @ Work that her job was the reason for her split with former NBC chairman Ted Harbert: "I would come home from work, and Ted would be like, ‘Do you want to watch your show?' and I'd be like, ‘No, I just came from my show. That's the last thing I'd want to do.' That was the reason it didn't work out, ultimately. I think." She added that for the sake of her dating life, she tries not to "go too far out of bounds to accommodate someone else." [NYDN]
