  • Jennifer Lawrence And Amy Schumer Will Make You Do A Double Take At 2016 Golden Globes

    Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Schumer may be nominated for the same category – Best Actress, Comedy – at the upcoming Golden Globes, but it does not mean their friendship is at stake. In fact, the best actress nominees are planning to make the awards season memorable for them.

    Preparing for the upcoming awards season, Lawrence declared she wants to wear matching gowns with her BFF Amy Schumer.

    “We’re going to try to figure out to wear the exact same thing,” Lawrence revealed to E! while promoting her film Joy, which is scheduled to open in theaters on December 25. “That’s my mission. I really want us to wear the same thing,” the actress said, determined. Many observers have noticed Lawrence and Schumer had dressed alike on the red carpet before, although on separate occasions, and they are considering doing it together early next year.

    When asked if she had a particular look in mind, Lawrence, who has been the face of Dior for the past three years, said Schumer will probably wear a Dior gown at the event. “I’m just going to have to have Dior make two of whatever they’re making for me,” the Hunger Games star shared.

    Schumer, who is nominated for Best Actress for Comedy for her film Trainwreck, is reportedly writing a movie script with Lawrence. The two have been really close and according to rumors, they will be playing sisters in the movie. Production will start in the first quarter of 2017.

    Lawrence plays the inventor of the Miracle Mop in her upcoming movie, Joy. She and Schumer will compete in the Best Actress in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy category.

    NBC will air the 2016 Golden Globe Awards live on January 10, 2016.

  • “Hot Problems”: New Viral Video Compared To Rebecca Black’s “Friday”

    A duo of girls calling themselves “Double Take” have released a video on YouTube that is drawing comparisons to Rebecca Black’s “Friday”…but not in a good way.

    The 17-year old girls–Drew Garrett and Lauren Willey–have garnered almost 2 million views on YouTube since posting the video, which involves them riding around in the back of a limo while “singing” over a generic club beat about how difficult it is to be hot. The girls admit in an interview on Good Morning America that they are aware they can’t sing, and were going for a “talking/singing” effect.

    While the vocal stylings of the teens are drawing comparisons to Rebecca Black–one commenter said, “Ohh. My. God. I seriously love and worship Rebecca Black now. That was the most horrible 3 minutes and 4 seconds of my life”–it’s the subject matter of the song that has some viewers annoyed.

    “Hot girls, we have problems too,” they sing. “We’re just like you, except we’re hot.”

    But the girls insist that the song is meant to be cheeky and funny and that they don’t actually believe the things they’re singing about.

    “We wanted something funny to show our friends,” Willey said. “We really didn’t mean anything from it.”

    Rebecca Black, who swept the web last year with her single “Friday” was bashed relentlessly after the video went viral but went on to inspire Katy Perry, whose video for “Last Friday Night” recalls some of the imagery Black used.
