New Superman Returns Trailer, Poster, Soundtrack, Website and Release Date

Here's another Superman Returns update, folks, and this one is a big one. First of all, if you saw X-Men 3: The Last Stand this weekend, but you weren't lucky enough to catch the new Superman Returns trailer, well, we've got it right here, and it is good. Really good.

We've also got the new Superman Returns poster for the UK, and the official website has been revamped, and looks pretty cool too. Available on the website are wallpapers, buddy icons, videos, pictures, and lots more.

And if you're eager to hear the new Soundtrack, well, you're in luck there too. Thanks to SoundtrackNet, we've got preview clips of all the tracks on the Superman Returns soundtrack album. This isn't the Emo-Rock album, but rather the film score, complete with the John Williams main title theme. SoundtrackNet has descriptions of all the clips, but I haven't read it in fear of spoilers. Thankfully, the track titles are genereic enough not to be annoying. You can listen to all the clips below.

The biggest news, however, is that the release date for the film has been pushed up a full two days, from Friday, June 30, to Wednesday, June 28. But it gets even better. According to Superhero Hype, the first showings will actually take place on Tuesday, June 27 at 10:00pm, instead of the traditional 12:01am show that would have been on Wednesday, the 28th.

Ashlee Simpson Has New Lips Too

At the rate that Ashlee Simpson is having new surgical procedures done to her face, within the next few years, she will either look like Michael Jackson, or that crazy rich lady who looks like a cat. Seriously, Ashlee Simpson's new lips look absolutley ridiculous.

It's as if she's trying to make them match her way-too-big sunglasses. Sunglasses which make her new nose look ridiculously small, by the way. I really don't understand celebrities. They're obsessed with having perfect proportions, but they take everything to the utmost extreme, and end up looking like walking caricatures.

I don't know what Ashlee Simpson is trying to accomplish with all the plastic surgery, but she should stop before the only thing real left about her is the fact that she can't sing.

More pictures of Ashlee Simpson and her new, collagen filled lips, after the jump.

Natalie Portman Nude in Goya’s Ghost?

Alright, let's take this all with a grain of salt, but according to Ain't It Cool News, not only will Natalie Portman deliver a great performance in her next movie, Goya's Ghost, she will also be naked. That's right, Natalie Portman nude!

But how can this be you ask? Hasn't Natalie always been opposed to doing on-screen nudity? Well, if you take her word for it, you would definitely get that impression. Not once, but twice did Natalie Portman say she wasn't going to get naked on film.

First she said:

I would be happy to do nudity in a film that was appropriate. But because it'll end up on a porn site, that's what keeps me from doing it. If a character goes through something that a woman goes through, then I'll play it.

And then:

I will not allow myself to be on a porn site... I don't want to be used by someone else for turning me into something that I'm not.

But now, if you believe what AICN is saying, Natalie Portman does actually appear nude in Goya's Ghost, in an interrogation scene.

Now, [this] isn't some bullshit interrogation involving comfy chairs and being poked with soft cushions. This is some major torture. Her hands are tied behind her back and then she is lifted off the ground... BY HER WRISTS! If you think that this sounds painful, well, you should see it. One more thing about this scene... NATALIE PORTMAN'S NAKED! (Well, at least the unfinished special effect of Natalie is.) It's not necessarily the ideal place to see her nude, but, you take what you can get, right guys?

So, once again, I'm not going to say anything definitive on this one, since we all got our hopes up for those supposed nude scenes in Closer, only to have director Mike Nichols cut, and burn the scenes out.

And speaking of Closer, here are some caps from the closest Natalie has come to getting naked on screen, plus many more after the jump.

Update - March 19, 2007: The Natalie Portman nude scenes from Goya's Ghost are now up.

Kate Beckinsale (Ass) Cracks Me Up

Call it what you will, ass crack, plumber's butt, coinslot, it's always fun when celebrities show theirs off. I don't know why Kate Beckinsale decided to wear such insanely low-rise pants, but I'm definitely not complaining. Anyway, I've run out of euphemisms for the separation between buttock cheeks, so I'll just let you ogle the pictures.

Paris Hilton Is Either Stupid or Crazy or Both

I think Paris Hilton is schizophrenic. We all know she's ridiculously stupid, but her latest comments and actions have me thinking there's more than one moron rattling around in her head. According to FemaleFirst, Paris was openly saying how sexy her new movie role is, and that she even has a strip scene - as if that's a novelty.

The fledgling actress stars in new comic film 'National Lampoon's Pledge' and has promised fans they can expect to see her showing off her sexy body in several racy scenes.

She told Britain's Top Of The Pops magazine: "It's a very sexy movie. It's all, like, hot sorority girls at college and everybody's beautiful. They are lots of sexy scenes with me.'

In the movie, Paris plays a bitchy college senior who makes new students perform a variety of cruel stunts to win a place in her 'frat' house.

But then the next day, comes news from DigitalSpy that Paris ditched the Cannes premiere of the very same film because of excessive nudity that was added to the movie.

Paris Hilton refused to turn up to the premiere of her new film at the Cannes Festival following a dispute with producers over the nudity content.

The socialite boycotted the first showing of National Lampoon's Pledge This! after film-makers added nudity to the final cut without consulting her.

She said "I'm angry that they editted the final cut without my permission.

"I took the part on the assurance that I wouldn't do any nudity. I wanted to do something where I'd be taken seriously, and they added a load of scenes with naked girls. I was so angry I snubbed my own premiere."

I know I shouldn't be trying to apply any kind of logic, or reason to anything Paris Hilton says or does, but this is just ridiculous. Forget the fact that everyone has already seen her having sex. Also forget the fact that no one will ever take her seriously, especially not starring in a National Lampoon movie. What is it that she is actually trying to accomplish with all this?

I swear, I want to smack her upside the head for being such a completely useless waste of space and air. Frankly, I want to smack myself for even writing this, but at least I get to vent, and hopefully entertain you for a moment or two. But I've got to stop talking about her right now, or I'm going to have an aneurysm.

Michelle Rodriguez Is Out of Jail… Again

Okay, if you're ever planning on breaking the law, and you think you might end up doing jail time, here's a tip for you: become a celebrity. We already know celebs get ton of free crap, even though they can afford pretty much anything, but now, they're getting what amounts to real life get-out-of-jail-free cards. Well, at Michelle Rodriguez is. Yup, according to People magazine, Michelle's latest 60-day jail sentence was over and done with in a little over four hours.

Call it a lucky break for Michelle Rodriguez: The former Lost actress was released from Los Angeles County Jail on Thursday after serving a mere four hours and 20 minutes of her two-month jail sentence.

"Needless to say, our prosecutors are not happy about this," says a spokesperson for the L.A. City Attorney's office. "But the sheriffs have a policy to let some nonviolent offenders go early, in part due to jail overcrowding."

Rodriguez, 27, must perform 30 days of community service and is on two years probation.

The night of her release, the actress was spotted at the Tropicana Bar at the Roosevelt Hotel, and on Monday night at the Hollywood club Shag.

"Michelle's happy with the way things turned out," her friend, designer Anand Jon, tells PEOPLE. "She knows this wasn't a literal get-out-of-jail-free card. Michelle's taken responsibility for the past and now she's ready to focus on her career."

Actually, it was a literal get-out-of-jail-free card. That's what it's called when you get out of jail, for free. But you know what the real kicker is? These pictures of Michelle Rodriguez were taken at the Ultimate Fighting Championship. I guess if you can't get that up-close-and-personal prison violence, a no-holds-barred ring match is the next best thing.
