Tyra Banks’ and Ashton Kutcher’s top-secret project with ABC has finally been revealed. The show is called True Beauty. It will be hosted by MTV’s Vanessa Minnillo; Cheryl Tiggs and Nole Martin will be the judges.

The show’s premise is about finding the inner beauty, not the outer, of its 10 beauty pageant contestants: 6 women and 4 men.  But the twist?  Oh, ya there’s a twist…  The contestants don’t know that the judges are looking for inner beauty.  I wonder how long it’ll take them to figure it out?

The show will air in January 2009 and after it’s premiere will follow Samantha Who? in ABC’s line-up.  The winner will receive a cash prize and a spot on People’s 100 Most Beautiful People of 2009 list.

I wonder how this show will pan out? I think that it has a lot of potential to be funny. Ashton’s other projects, Punk’d and Beauty and the Geek, seemed to get really good ratings for their first seasons. I think I’ll give it a chance. What do you think of Ashton and Tyra’s new tv show?

It’s Monday!  That means the latest installment of Ashton Kutcher’s Blah Girls.  Today, the girls talk 90210, Ashley Simpson and even Suri Cruise.  Find out what they are saying…

Ashton Kutcher apparently hasn’t been getting enough good work lately because he has suddenly been reduced to being an assistant football coach. One of Ashton’s best friends is the head football coach for Harvard-Westlake prep school and he needed some help with the team so Ashton decided to step in and help out.

According to Page Six:

“The team was totally surprised when they showed up for practice and Ashton was there,” said our source. “His best friend is the head coach and asked for his help.”

How stoked are these kids to have Ashton Kutcher as their coach? Apparently now they are getting more support from fans-especially young girls who regularly watch practice sessions to see the gorgeous actor on the field.

The man that killed Ashton Kutcher’s former Girlfriend, Ashley Ellerin, has been found.  32 year old Santa Monica resident Michael Gargiulo, who has been in jail since July for a separate knife attack, could be charged with murder as early as next week, according to Santa Monica Police.  After the DNA evidence taken from the July stabbing underwent further database crossed-referencing, authorities discovered that Gargiulio’s DNA matched genetic evidence in three other murders.  The murders took place in Chicago, Monterey Park, and Los Angeles.

Ashley, Ashton’s girlfriend at the time, was found stabbed to death inside her Hollywood Hills home.  Ashton had gone to her home the night of the murder to pick Ashley up for a party, however when she did not answer the door Ashton went around to the back and looked through the window.  He did not see anyone inside, but did report seeing red stains on the carpet that he thought was from red wine.  Ashton left thinking that no one was home and Ashley was discovered the next day by a friend.

Ashton’s rep says that Ashton has no comment.

Gargiulo’ s lawyer, Anthony Salerno said that Gargiulo denies any involvement in the murders and he “thinks the police are out to get him.”  He has a September 4th hearing set for attempted murder and burglary charges, in which he has pleaded not guilty.  Gargiulo’s bail has been set at $1.1 million.

I had no idea that Ashton had gone through an ordeal like this.  Even though it has been 7 years and Ashton is now married to Demi Moore losing someone you care about is something you never forget.  Hopefully now that the killer has been caught all the people affected by this evil man can have some closure.

It’s a strange mix of new movies out on DVD this week, but for the most part, it seems pretty clear which ones are worth seeing and which are going to put you to sleep. There are many more politically charged movies out this week than usual, but a good mix of other stuff, too. I recommend Son of Rambow and Chicago 10.  See the rest at your own risk!

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS (2008), Romance/Comedy, PG-13, 99 mins.

Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz star in this romantic comedy as a couple who got married during a wild night in Vegas. Thankfully the movie understands how tired that premise is, so it attempts to complicate matters by intertwining their fates around a multi-million dollar jackpot that prevents them from just annulling the marriage quickly and quietly like Britney Spears did. Required by the courts to continue their marriage for at least six months, they each set about on a mission to make the other so desperate to get out of the marriage that they will request a separation, which includes forfeiture of the prize money. Cameron’s character is a determined career woman, while Kutcher eases through a performance as a perpetual goof-off. ‘Til death do us part, indeed!

But don’t try this at home kids. Your odds of winning millions in Vegas and accidentally marrying Cameron Diaz in the same night remain slim…

REDBELT (2008), Action/Drama, R, 99 mins.

A peaceful martial arts master is manipulated into participating in a highly commercialized ultimate fighting championship by a group of actors and fight promoters, changing his path in life completely. Tim Allen has a lot to prove in this turn from his traditional comedy fare.  Here, he stars as an action movie star with an intensely dysfunctional marriage.

Faced with no options but to get in the ring and fight, the jujitsu master may be in for the fight of his life. It sounds like a typical martial arts movie, but writer/director David Mamet also gave us The Untouchable, Ronin, Heist, and a great many others, so it’s reasonable to expect more.

SON OF RAMBOW (2008), Comedy/Drama, PG-13, 96 mins. “Make Believe. Not War.”

Son of Rambow at first glance looks like a goofy children’s movie, but don’t be fooled. It’s set in England during one summer in the early 80s, and tells the story about friendship and the difficulties of growing up. Told through the eyes of Will, the eldest son of a Plymoth Brethren family that forbids him any contact with such “worldlies” as music and TV, until he becomes involved with Lee Carter, a young man at his school who makes home movies. Carter shows Will Rambo: First Blood, and having never seen a movie, Will is understandably blown away. He quickly agrees to be a stuntman in Carter’s next movie, leading to a reckless adventure through the world of amateur filmmaking and sudden popularity.

I’m always curious about movies that explore the possibilities of filmmaking, and this is one of the purest forms. Filmmaking changes Will’s life completely, and the adventures and difficulties that he and Carter have together make for a fascinating story and a pretty wild ride. See this one.

WHERE IN THE WORLD IS OSAMA BIN LADEN? (2008), Documentary, PG-13, 93 mins.

Morgan Spurlock burst into the filmmaking world with a bang back in 2004 with the spectacular documentary Super Size Me, and after various other projects (including the sporadically interesting television series “30 Days”), he has now returned to the documentary world with the almost unnoticed Where In The World Is Osama Bin Laden?

Spurlocks left-leaning political tendencies have peeked through in his films before (you remember the scene in Super Size Me where he shows a young boy a picture of George W. Bush and asks him who it is, and the boy says, “Jesus?” “No,” Spurlock replies, “but it’s a good guess!”), but now it seems he has pulled out all the stops.

I think we realize that the quest to locate and capture bin Laden has been largely a failure, but I’m not sure it should be Morgan Spurlock, who has not a lick of military or intelligence experience, who should be making a movie about his own personal search for the man. That’s highly politicized entertainment that can’t really go anywhere.

CHICAGO 10 (2007), Documentary/Animation, R, 110 mins.

This animated documentary uses an unconventional approach to tell the story of eight anti-war protesters who were put on trial for conspiracy following the 1968 Democratic National Convention. It’s a moving story about young Americans demanding to be heard by their next president and being greeted with tear gas, night sticks, and prison in response. Reminds me of the Chinese goverment’s reaction to the students’ protests in Tiananmen Square in 1989. Scary to think that that stuff has happened here too…

In the current, highly polarized political climate, it’s interesting to see something that took place 40 years ago in Chicago in front of a live audience of 50 million that also completely divided the country in two. The story is told using a bold style of animation, extraordinary archive footage, and an intense selection of revolutionary music. See this one, too!

AUGUST (2008), Drama, R, 88 mins.

Taking place in the final month before America was changed forever, August tells the story of two brothers running an online business called Landshark on Wall Street together and struggling to keep it afloat. Like Enron, there is never really much of an explanation of what Landshark is or what they do, it just exists as a plot point and then disappears when it needs to.

The film is unfortunately predictable and the juxtaposition with September 11th turns out to be meaningless, as it has nothing to do with the character change in the movie. It’s about a superficial man trying to cope with a failed company, not trying to realign himself with social realities around him, as you might expect from a film advertised through the very title as taking place just before a national tragedy.

POSTAL (2007), Action/Comedy/Thriller, R, 100 mins.

Here’s a pretty clear warning for you, Postal is written and directed by Uwe Boll, who is widely (and justifiably) considered to be the worst director alive. Personally, I would go a step further and say possibly the worst director who ever lived. IMDB.com lists what might be his two most famous movies, House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark, among the 100 worst movies of all time. You remember those, right? I do. My eyes still hurt from House of the Dead, which, like Postal, is made from a video game.

That being said, it would be a safe and wise assumption that Postal is a great movie to avoid at all costs. If you’re not convinced yet, check this out- it’s about an unemployed regular guy who decides to heist an amusement park, only to discover that the Taliban are planning the same heist. Now he has to “take on” terrorists as well as political figures.

But in the movie’s defense, there’s gotta be a good drinking game in there somwhere.

Ashton Kutcher is on the May issue of Details magazine.  In the issue he opens up about his life as a kid, growing up with a twin, what it’s like being married to Demi Moore, and his acting career.

Here is a portion of Ashton’s interview. View the rest at www.Details.com.

His twin brother, Michael, was diagnosed with cerebral palsy.

“I was the kid with the big Coke-bottle glasses, the hearing aid,” says Michael Kutcher, who still lives in Iowa, where he sells retirement plans. “There was a lot of teasing, a lot of the normal mean stuff.”

Ashton adds,

“That was a big part of my life, kind of looking out for my twin.”

On feeling trapped in the role of the “dumb handsome guy.”

“I started to get this attitude about being funny, like, are you laughing at me or with me?”

He talked about the moment he decided to get serious with Demi,

“I’ve literally just been voted the world’s most eligible bachelor and I’m like, I’m going off the market.  I’ve found the one.  If I had thought about it, I would have been like, Nah, nah.  But what can you do? When you’re in that deep, you can’t think. She was the first person who would call me on my s**t.  She didn’t need me.  She straight up didn’t need me.  She wanted me, but she didn’t need me, so she could put it on the line.”

I have always wondered how celebrities’ spouses feel about their partner’s on screen love scenes and now I know.  Ashton Kutcher has admitted that he cannot watch his wife, Demi Moore’s, love scenes.  He says that seeing his wife with another man sends him into a jealous rage.

Kutcher claims that he is usually not a jealous person and says, “In real life, I’m not jealous. But I can’t cope with watching her with another guy on film.  As an actor, I know that any feelings you’re showing are manufactured.  But I still don’t want to fool my mind into thinking she’s into another guy.”  Demi has hooked up on screen with some of Hollywood’s hottest actors like, Rob Lowe and Michael Douglas, so anyone should understand why Ashton is jealous. What husband wouldn’t be?  However, I bet Ashton loved to watch Demi get down and dirty on the big screen before they became a couple.

Last Saturday, Paris Hilton was photographed and made headlines around the world when she walked the streets of Hollywood with an orange-robed, grey-haired “shaman” who proceeded to bless her and then encouraged her to donate a diamond necklace to a stranger.

Numerous stories were made up about Hilton wanting to change her ways and this guru was going to save her.

The real story is that Paris and the guru, actor Maxie Santillian Jr., are both part of Ashton Kutcher’s new prank show, “Pop Fiction,” which will feature 20 celebrities, including several superstars, who are all in on the joke.

Kutcher and his business partner Jason Goldberg produce the new program, which highlights the gullibility of the paparazzi and the media and is set to premiere on E! on Sunday.

Goldberg says, “We live in a culture that’s driven by media and obsessed with celebrity, to the point where they don’t have private lives anymore.

“Two people going out to eat turns into, ‘They’re engaged.’ It’s a feeding frenzy. It’s dangerous and it’s irresponsible in some cases.

“We’re having fun, but we want to say to people, ‘Can you really believe everything you read and see?’”

I think this is a really good idea for a show. I’ve thought about the concept myself. It’s about time the paparazzi get whats commin’ to them. I can’t wait for the show to air.

On March 20, Jamie Lynn and Ashton are set to guest star on ABC’s new tv series Miss/Guided.

The new comedy centers on Becky Freeley (Judy Greer), a former uber-awkward teen who’s now returning to her alma mater as the school’s guidance counselor.

According to reports, the mommy-to-be, will be playing a High School senior, named Mandy, who has just gotten excepted to college. Mandy, apparently is the school slut and spends the first 30 seconds of the episode making out with her boyfriend in the backseat of his car.

Before Mandy gets too excited about going off on her own, a substitute Spanish teacher, played by Ashton Kutcher, tells her reconsider her options partly because college will effect the love life she has now.
