Making it clear that it was "all love," comedian Mike Epps' hilarious parody of Cleveland hero Charles Ramsey is sure to cause all laughs.

There has been a lot of chatter up and down the interwebs about whether or not Ramsey has been getting the respect that he deserves for his heroic rescue of Amanda Berry, 27, which led to the rescues of Gina Dejesus, 23, Michelle Knight, 32, and Berry's 6-year-old daughter.

Report: Beyonce Pregnant With Baby #2

Report: Beyonce Pregnant With Baby #2Report: Beyonce Pregnant With Baby #2

Page Six reports:[1]

Music insiders are chattering about Beyoncé expecting her second child with husband Jay-Z. Multiple sources told us after the Met Gala last week that the singer, who is currently in the middle of a world tour, is pregnant. Bey wore a Givenchy gown with a high, belted waist that carefully camouflaged her midsection, but pictures have emerged on blogs of what looks like a baby bump from recent tour dates. Last week Beyoncé, who gave birth to daughter Blue Ivy in January 2012, gave an interview to ABC’s “GMA,” where she said, “I would like more children. I think my daughter needs some company. I definitely love being a big sister.” But she came short of saying when that would occur: “At some point, when it’s supposed to happen,” she told ABC’s Amy Robach. Beyoncé’s rep didn’t get back to us for comment. But we wouldn’t expect her to — the singer announced she was pregnant with Blue Ivy at the 2011 MTV Music Awards by revealing her bump

Hollywood Producer Wants Rihanna To Play Josephine Baker (Video)

Let’s file this under “Bizarre Casting News.” The Huffington Post is reporting that producer W Lance Reynolds wants Rihanna for an upcoming biopic on Josephine Baker. Reynolds says:

“Rihanna is one of the most talented performers of this millennium and with her unique acting and performing abilities, I have no doubt she will bring Josephine back to life on the big screen.”

While we can certainly agree that Rihanna shares Baker’s flair for the dramatic in her music and on the stage, not quite sure we can ride with Reynold’s faith in Rih Rih’s (non-existent) acting ability — “Battleship” anyone? It’s one thing to share certain characteristics with an iconic figure like Josephine Baker, but another to be able to act them out believably on the big screen. I mean, would you really cast Beyonce in a Tina Turner movie remake?

If you want to see real acting, do yourself a favor and rent HBO’s “The Josephine Baker Story” (1991) starring Lynn Whitfield, who an Emmy for her work.

Interview: 'Star Trek Into Darkness' star Zoe Saldana

Even though it’s been four years since audiences embraced her stunning portrayal of Lt. Nyota Uhura in the blockbuster reboot of “Star Trek,” actress Zoe Saldana still can’t quite put into words how grateful she is to play once again the iconic role originated by Nichelle Nichols nearly 50 years ago.


“This was a role that I was so privileged to get in the first place, so to find out I was going to be doing it moving forward made me feel super ecstatic and very blessed,” Saldana told me in a recent call from London. “One, because my mom is a ‘Star Trek’ fan, but also because I met Nichelle Nichols and got her blessing and some amazing pointers. Because of that, I was able to run wild with it.”
