In some of the worst celebrity news to hit our radar recently, the delicious and genuinely talented Ryan Gosling has announced he is taking a break from acting.
Although his fans (read: us) do not really feel this is the case, the star has said that both he and his fans will benefit from this break from the big screen. He told Associated Press, “I’ve been doing it too much. I’ve lost perspective on what I’m doing. I think it’s good for me to take a break and reassess why I’m doing it and how I’m doing it. And I think this is probably a good way to learn about that. I need a break from myself as much as I imagine the audience does.”
Ryan – if you’re reading this, please know that, as your audience, we do not feel we need a break from you. Not one bit.
The 32-year-old actor went on to explain that he believes this break will help him create longevity for his career.
For those of you who are already mourning the loss of that smile blown up on the big screen, fear not, the hunk will be appearing in upcoming flick The Place Beyond the Pines before he makes his exit. Perhaps we’d best see it more than once?
If you’ve been betting all your money on various names starting with ‘K’ ahead of Kim Kardashian’s baby day in June, our advice to you is to stop immediately. Kanye West has spoken and his main name pick is a good half an alphabet away from the favoured letter of the Kardashian clan.
The Father-to-be has reportedly came up with a list of potential names while he was at Paris Fashion Week last month (perfect place for baby name brainstorming, no?) and it is said North is his favourite so far.
This, of course, means that the baby’s full name would be ‘North West’…
While Kanye has been brainstorming baby names, he has also coming up with a name for his new album and the best he’s come up with so far is, ‘I Am God’. In the most obvious statement of the year, a source told British newspaper The Sun, “Kanye’s ego is something else, so he’s quite serious about the title.”
Kate Upton has surprised us all, but especially high school student Jake Davidson, by accepting a YouTube video invitation to attend the prom. In the now-famous Jake’s video, he says, “I’m Jewish, 1.75m on a really good day – and I can’t dance. At all. You’re Christian, 1.78m, and that Cat Daddy video should have won an Oscar for best short film. You could say this is destiny.”
After the video went viral, Jake found himself on US Today where he had a conversation with Upton over the phone. After a mild freak-out, he composed himself enough to convince the Sports Illustrated model to attend the event. She said, “I definitely have to check schedules, but you seem like so much fun and if everything works out, I’d love to go with you.”
