Ok, this movie is going to be hilarious! Sofia Vergara and Reese Witherspoon have teamed up to do a buddy-girl movie that from the looks of this trailer, is going to give Sofia Vergara her first big box-office break. Vergara, the Colombian Jessica Rabbit, has been looking for some time for the perfect vehicle to ride her popularity and good looks. This might be the transitory project that launches her solo A- List career. I think it’ll hit and hit well.  Read More

The “1-4-0″: Pure catharsis. That’s the best way I can describe the #BSBTheMovie documentary. It is a visceral journey unlike any celebrity would dare share. Read More

Disney this week announced that they created their first ever Latina Princess and her name will be Princess Elena of Avalor.
