Perez has had it to the hilt
The man who put the bully in bully pulpit wants everybody to stop hating.
Gossip whore Perez Hilton insisted yesterday - on Ellen DeGeneres' show, in a YouTube video and to Out magazine - that recent gay teen suicides and bullying incidents have led him to resolve "to be the change I want to see."
"I'm growing," a tearful Hilton said in the YouTube video, adding he hopes fans still come to a declawed perezhilton.com. "I want to be sassy without being vanilla."
Perez (A/K/A Mario Lavandeira) is openly gay. But his six-year-old site made its bones outing celebrities, such as Neal Patrick Harris, or creating snarky nicknames for them, like "Maniston" for Jennifer Aniston.
A vote for Pedro
"Napoleon Dynamite" will be brought to animated life in a Fox series reuniting Jared Hess and Jerusha Hess as writers and executive producers, with Jon Heder and other original cast members voicing key characters.
The cult film reset the bar for live-action geek weirdness, but animated weirdness is the major leagues. "South Park." "The Family Guy." "Aqua Teen Hunger Force." Heck, MTV is reportedly bringing back '90s bad boys "Beavis and Butt-Head."
Heh, heh.
Good thing for Napoleon that "The Simpsons'" Mike Scully is also on board as a writer/exec producer.
Tyler's 'Rainbow' will be plenty
Tyler Perry's adaptation of Ntozake Shange's 1976 choreopoem/play, "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When The Rainbow Is Enuf" is slated to hit theaters Nov. 5.
Perry spurns traditional media promotions (he never does advance screenings for critics), but he has been chatting up the much-anticipated film on his website.
