A funny thing happened on the way to the SCOTUS
Couldn’t pass up sharing this with the world. Writer/Comedian Merrill Markoe points out (via her blog) :
“I predict that if Elena Kagan gets confirmed as the new Supreme Court justice, she will do for Patton Oswalt what Sarah Palin did for Tina Fey.” Touché.

You can only hope to contain him.
On screen and off, Nic Cage has played many roles: Ghost Rider, face transplantee, Coppola, Oscar winner, prodigious shopper. He has the elastic face and acting chops that suit almost any role. But if you’ve ever wished that Cage could be an even bigger presence on the world stage, this is your lucky day. At Niccageaseveryone, you can see Cage inhabiting roles from teen idol to Dr. Who. Take note: this is what the magic of Photoshop was meant for.
Some of the blog’s best offerings:
NC as Sarah Palin
NC as Captain Kirk. (More incredible Kirk madness here.)
NC as fellow hunk Zac Efron (apologies to Joseph).
NC as the Great Emancipator (aka the only American greater than Cage himself).
Bare with me
for a moment. The Telegraph is reporting that actor and downright nice guy (cause, you know, we’re friends) Daniel Radcliffe will have a nude scene in the upcoming Harry Potter and his Deadly Member the Deathly Hallows.
The article quotes the film’s director, David Yates, “Dan has appeared nude in the past. There are a couple of scenes in the new film in which he will undress, but we’re still thinking about how to present it.”
I don’t suggest taking a lesson from the newly minted almost-nude former future son-in-law of Sarah Palin, Levi Johnston. His recent Playgirl photo spread was, while thrilling, a bit of a let down.
This will be nothing new for Mr. Radcliffe who went full frontal (and dorsal for that matter) 8 times a week, both on Broadway and in London’s West End in Equus. He also has a book coming out at the end of the year. In it, he allows photographer Tim Hailand to follow him for a day — all day — including a trip to the shower. Good form, Daniel; I like where you’re going with this.
My only request is that this not be a publicity stunt, like Levi’s. All talk and no Potter.
