Face-Off: Lindsay Lohan & Megan Fox Fight To Play Elizabeth Taylor

The actress is hoping to play Taylor in a Lifetime movie. Read More »

Oh, I cringe. I’m sure you’ve already heard about the upcoming Lifetime made-for-TV movie called “Liz and Dick,” chronicling the trials and tribulations of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton’s on-again off-again marriage and life together. Lindsay Lohan was the first actress revealed to be in talks for the role last week, directly from the mouth of the film’s executive producer Larry Thompson. Rumor has it Lindsay would die for the role, and who wouldn’t? Now it’s looking like Lohan, who hasn’t had an acting role since she appeared in 2010′s “Machete,” is going to be facing some pretty tight competition in the form of one Megan Fox. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed that neither of these actresses scores the part when the contract is signed as early as next week. For the love of Liz! [Celeb Dirty Laundry]

So This Is What Rob Lowe’s Been Up To In His Spare Time

Little did we know while we were watching him make funnies on “Parks and Recreation”, Rob Lowe was growing a porno ‘stache and preparing to play suspected murderer Drew Peterson in what appears to be an epic Lifetime movie. “Drew Peterson: Untouchable” looks like it might surpass “Mother May I Sleep With Danger” in awesomeness. Sorry, Tori Spelling. It’s good to have something to look forward to in the New Year. [NY Mag]

Lady Gaga News: A Lifetime Movie And An Invitation To Join Queen?

We love a good Lifetime movie as much as the next girl. No seriously, we’ve watched “Mother, May I Sleep With Danger?” more times collectively than we’d wish to confess. But we’re a little skeptical of a new flick that Lifetime has in the works called “Fame Monster: The Lady Gaga Story.” The network has put out a casting call looking for actresses “who can believably span ages of 16 to 22″ for the role. But will they really be able to find someone to walk in Gaga’s (Alexander McQueen Armadillo) shoes?

This information comes at the same time as news that Lady Gaga is apparently being courted to become the lead singer of Queen.

“Dance Moms” Is The New “Toddlers And Tiaras”

My roommate tipped me off to the new Lifetime reality series, “Dance Moms,” featuring emotionally abusive dance dictator, Abby Lee, a bunch of overzealous stage moms, and some young dancers whom I predict will spend many of their adult years in therapy. Now that Eden Wood has retired and Mackenzie appearances are over for the season, I’m over “Toddlers and Tiaras.” I need a new show to fulfill my quota of watching the many ways in which parents can screw up their children. Ya know, in case I ever decide to reproduce and need a tutorial on what not to do. “Dance Moms” oughtta do the trick. I’ve watched two cringe-worthy episodes so far and I suggest you do the same. Deliciously awful. [My Lifetime] Keep reading »

Quickies: Watch “William & Kate”’s Extended Trailer & What Soaps Just Got Cancelled?

Is this new breast cancer meme totally stupid? Read More »

So, apparently, Jennifer Aniston didn’t love our idea for her to direct an all female version of “The Three Amigos” starring herself, Courteney Cox, and Lisa Kudrow. Looks like she wanted something more meaty and heartfelt for her directorial debut. She has signed on for “Project Five,” a Lifetime project that will meld together five short films about different breast cancer survivors. And Jennifer won’t be the only famous director—Demi Moore and Alicia Keys will also be stepping behind the camera for the cause. Keep reading »

Lifetime’s Take On Prince William And Kate Middleton


Wow, Lifetime made this movie faster than I could snap my fingers and say, “Where’s my royal wedding invitation?” The network announced in late January that they would be making a flick about Prince William and Kate Middleton‘s courtship at St. Andrews and beyond. Now it is set to air on April 18, just 11 days before the couple ties the knot. The movie stars Nico Evers-Swindell, of “NCIS: Los Angeles,” as Prince William and British actress Camilla Luddington, who has appeared on “Days of our Lives,” as Kate. And it looks like it might be semi-good. Even if they didn’t take our plot suggestion, “Kate falls in love with William’s twin brother, who has been hidden from the media all his life because he has that disease where you can’t stop hiccuping.” [People] Keep reading »

Prince William And Kate Middleton Get A Lifetime Movie, We Suggest Plot Points

Prince William and Kate Middleton are getting the Lifetime movie treatment. Yup, sometime in April before their April 29th wedding, Lifetime will air a movie about their courtship. According to Entertainment Weekly, Nico Evers-Swindell of “Law & Order” and “NCIS: Los Angeles” will play Prince William, Ben Cross of “Chariots of Fire” will play Prince Charles, and the actress to play Kate Middleton has not yet been cast. No matter, this movie is totally going to be better than “The Craigslist Killer”!

Now, we all know that in Lifetime movies, someone dies a horrific and untimely death. I’m pretty sure that’s not going to happen in this movie. (Except for the Princess Di part.) But we can imagine what kind of ridiculous Lifetime-esque plots, full of passion, intrigue, and even more passion, that they could come up with … Keep reading »

Introducing: The Lifetime Television For Women Movie Club


If I believed in guilty pleasures, I’d say that watching Lifetime movies is one of my deepest guilty pleasures. But since I don’t believe you should feel guilty about one of the greatest things in the world, I’m just going to say I really, really like these movies. Lifetime’s films fall into two basic tropes: 1.) a persecuted woman haunted by her past, her ex, or some other weird abusive dude who wants to murder her, or 2.) a quirky tale about a woman who overcomes some obstacle to find romance and true love. This Sunday, the network premiers “Marry Me,” starring Lucy Lui, which they’ve helpfully described as “three fiances, one fiasco. Who will she choose?” Told over two nights, “Marry Me” seems to fall into the wacky romance category. Join me in watching the movie and we’ll have a post-”Marry Me” wrap-up next week! If you can’t catch the television screening, you can watch it on Hulu. “Marry Me,” on Lifetime, Sunday, December 12 at 9 p.m. (EST). [Lifetime] Keep reading »
