Quote of the Day: Will Ferrell on Playing Simon Cowell
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: American Idol, Gossip,
“I would love to play Simon Cowell in a movie - heck I would love it. It would be my dream role. He’s become a legend in five years. Nobody in the States knew who he was five years ago and now he is one of the most famous people on TV. It wouldn’t be that hard for me to play him because I see a lot of Ron Burgundy in Simon Cowell. Like Simon, Ron was the biggest thing on TV, loved himself and had that whole irresistible middle-aged man thing going on. I could play Simon, but to be honest Simon could play Ron. They are like long-lost twin brothers separated at birth. Simon Cowell and Ron Burgundy are pretty much the same role, apart from Simon being ruder.”

Quote of the Day: Bill Clinton on Mad Men
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Cable, Gossip,
“You ever watch that TV series Mad Men? If I keep watching this program, will I ever find a happy person? Great television. Good drama. But a lot of really painful reminders in that show about how black people were supposed to run the elevators… were supposed to ask permission before they get on an elevator. The way women were treated is appalling, and only occasionally funny to me.”
-Former President Bill Clinton speaking to a diverse crowd in Chicago about the 1960’s-set drama.

Quote of the Day: January Jones on Ashton Kutcher’s Acting Advice
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, Cable, Gossip,
“The guy I was dating when I first got to L.A. was not supportive of my acting. He was like, I don’t think you’re going to be good at this. So—f**k you! He only has nice things to say now—if anything, I should thank him. Because the minute you tell me I can’t do something, that’s when I’m most motivated.”
-Golden Globe-nominated January Jones (Mad Men) on the advice her previous boyfriend, Ashton Kutcher, once gave her.
