Wowee. Never seen an audience rebel against an emcee so quickly. One prominent director just couldn’t keep his opinion quiet. “They all showed up. They are all here and this is what they give us? This is a disaster.”

That was insane. Chris Rock insulted Jada Pinkett-Smith about her bald head with a joke about "G.I.Jane." (She has a hair loss condition.) Will Smith ran on stage, slapped Rock, then screamed twice loudly, "Keep my wife's name out of your fucking mouth."

Kristen Stewart has long been one of my favorite interview subjects: candid, crass and very funny. So I'm thrilled that
@ElizabethBanks

CHARLIE'S ANGELS casts Kristen Stewart as the comic relief, which is a wild kind of a choice. I appreciate the nerviness of that. On the whole, the movie is better than I worried it would be
