Joining forces with Payback Entertainment, “American Gods” actress Yetide Badaki is developing a project titled “Naija Vamp” as both a TV series and comic book, Deadline reports.
Deadline’s report announces, “Naija Vamp is about a Nigerian vampire’s hunger for eternal love, beyond the flesh. It is described as an irreverent love letter to all those who have ever felt othered, wrapped in a blood-sucking coming-of-age self-discovery romp.”
“The story follows Bisi, who is turning 40 years old. Again. In fact, Bisi turned 40 many years ago when she became a vampire as part of her Nigerian undead family heritage. Struggling to find herself in the New World amidst navigating her family’s Old World vampiric expectations and unable to keep a partner for fear of eating them, Bisi’s (after)life has felt like one perpetual time loop she can’t quite escape. But this year is going to be different.

Prince William and Kate Middleton got a heads up about the raid and thus postponed their honeymoon. Osama Bin Laden worked for the CIA. He is not dead; no, wait-he was already dead. Josh Dzieza on six crazy theories about what really went on with the al Qaeda mastermind.
Al Qaeda's confirmation of Osama bin Laden's death will likely damp the conspiracy theories that flared up after the announcement of his killing, even without the release of photographs of the terrorist leader's body. A vast majority of Americans agree with President Obama's decision not to release the photos, according to a recent CBS poll, an indication that the public does not require further proof.

But theories continue to burble on fringe blogs and message boards, and given the nature of conspiracy theories, they probably won't ever disappear entirely.

Birthers who claimed President Obama was not born in the U.S. have moved on to another wild conspiracy theory: that Osama bin Laden was not really killed last Sunday-or was killed to shut him up, and then quickly buried at sea. Josh Dzieza explains. Plus, full coverage of Osama bin Laden's death.
Osama bin Laden's death couldn't have come at a better time for the birthers, those who believe that President Obama was born in Kenya, or Indonesia, or renounced his citizenship, or for various other reasons is ineligible for office. Obama had just held an exasperated press conference in which he released his long-form birth certificate, and chided the nation to get back to more serious work.

Wacky Osama bin Laden conspiracy theories have been circulating ever since September 11. Josh Dzieza on calls for photos of his corpse as proof that the manhunt is really over. Plus, The Daily Beast's full coverage of bin Laden's death.
When British papers posted images of Osama bin Laden's bloody corpse, several conspiracy-minded websites pounced, decrying the photographs as fakes. They were right. The picture was a poorly photo-shopped image that has kicked around the Internet for years, chiefly to illustrate the many false reports of bin Laden's death. Publishing the fake images "makes little sense," writes Paul Joseph Watson, "unless of course, somebody is trying to hide something."

After everything Charlie has said about the show & the network, do You think he should get his job back?
Apparently the squeaky wheel really does get the oil. RadarOnline.com is reporting that CBS President Les Moonves wants the one-man crazy train, known as Charlie Sheen, back on Two and Half Men Asap – and he’s willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen.
Not only is Les is in talks with Warner Bros. Television, but he’s also reportedly going over head of the show’s creator Chuck Lorre, who Charlie famously spoke out against on The Alex Jones Show.
“Moonves told Chuck Lorre that he should ‘let us handle Charlie,’” a source tells the site. “[He] wants to get the show back on the air. He’s all for it. … He says certain people need to forget anything and everything Charlie’s done recently and just move...

HollywoodNews.com: We have examined both Warner Brothers’ March 7, 2011 termination letter and March 10, 2011 lawsuit, and have come to two conclusions:
In many ways, this case will boil down to garden-variety employment contract principles; and, Charlie Sheen may have more “winning!!” arguments than does Warner Brothers.
Between the termination letter, the lawsuit, the statements of the parties and public records and/or media coverage of various events, many (but not all) of the facts essential to this lawsuit appear fairly well-established.
Just the facts, Ma’am
Due to Sheen’s ability and the popularity of the show, Warner Brothers had tolerated a lot of problems over the years with Sheen’s off-screen antics; indeed, in May 2010 the WB signed him up to a new contract even though he had felony charges pending against him.
Up until 2011 Sheen was, with rare exception, able to provide Grade “A” performances when performing his job duties.

Adrian Edmondson and an '80s supergroup have won the last two spots in the Let's Dance For Comic Relief final. The 54-year-old comedian topped the public vote in tonight's qualifier with an elegant rendition of ballet routine 'The Dying Swan', which ultimately descended into a slapstick fight with Bottom partner Rik Mayall. When asked by hosts Steve Jones and Alex Jones to sum up the prospect of performing in the Let's Dance final, Edmondson replied: "[It] makes me very nervous. I'm really just worried about whether Rik's gonna find out where I am next week or not." The '80s supergroup - consisting of Chesney Hawkes, Toyah Wilcox, Limahl and Clare Grogan - finished in the top three with their homage to classic musical Grease and faced off against I'm A Celebrity...

The network has just renewed the hit comedy for, not one, but two more seasons, which will continue to give CBS a great opening act on Monday nights (assuming the show isn’t shuffled to later spot in the lineup).

We’ve reported before about billionaire heiress Megan Ellison, who has used her fortune to start Annapurna Pictures, a company whose sole purpose seems to be giving awesome filmmakers money so that they can make awesome movies. Well, it looks like she’s at it again. Deadline Sandy Fork reports that she is negotiating to take on an as-of-yet untitled film that will reunite the writing/directing team of Charlie Kaufman and Spike Jonze. When those two men teamed before we ended up getting Being John Malkovich and Adaptation. I don’t know about you, but I thought both of those movies were just the bee’s knees. The film they are set to make is said to be a parody-heavy take on things that Alex Jones has been trying to convince us are really happening with his conspiracy theory documentaries. It will be a dramatization of the world’s most powerful leaders meeting in a secret...

As if his numerous interviews on “Good Morning America,” “The Today Show,” “Piers Morgan Tonight,” and “The Alex Jones Show” didn’t satisfy your hunger for Charlie Sheen’s rants, there’s now a way to get it directly from the man himself. Charlie Sheen has a Twitter account. After appearing on “Piers Morgan Tonight” yesterday, Piers tweeted “I told @charliesheen to join Twitter during commercial break last night. He chuckled and said: 'That could be fun, maybe I will...” and it looks as if the embattled “Two and a Half Men” star took the idea seriously. Charlie recently posted his first tweet, starting off with his new battle cry: “Winning..! Choose your Vice…” with an attached photo of Sheen and one of his goddesses, Bree Olson, holding chocolate milk and a Naked Fruit Juice. As of press time, Charlie had already amassed nearly 200,000 followers eagerly awaiting more gems like “I am on a drug,...

CBS Tells Charlie Sheen “Pack Yo S#!T, you're Outta Here!”Wow, I would say “boy, how the mighty have fallen”, but how many times before have we seen actor Charlie Sheen fall on his ass? This guy has a habit of landing in one disastrous situation after another, yet somehow managing to come out on top. Sheen no longer has youth on his side, the guy didn't age well and frankly his neck looks like Barbara Walters' p***y f you ask me. But Sheen's been rolling in dough from his hit series Two and a Half Men – which should've been re-titled Three Men by now, since the kid has more facial hair than I do – earning $1.2 million an episode on the biggest hit comedy series of the past decade. That is until last week.When Sheen called in live to Alex Jones' radio program, he went...

Charlie Sheen has dipped deep into his pockets and pulled out the costly Marty Singer card, one of Hollywood's most feared attorneys, to do battle for him against a network. In what some people in the media are categorizing as an acute manic episode, Sheen took on ABC, NBC, TMZ, Radar Online and even E! to tell his side of the story, adding more interesting details and accusations as the day progressed. The object of Sheen's anger is "Two and a Half Men" showrunner Chuck Lorre, as Sheen has issued a $320 million "mental anguish" lawsuit, naming Lorre as the instigator in the suit.

It's not surprising that Jones does not have many fans on the right or the left, being a prominent 9/11 Truther and a peddler of other conspiracies, thus many wondered why he was invited to appear at all?...

Taiwan’s Next Media Animation TV is usually the go-to spot for timely, cartooned synopses and send-ups of important pop cultural events. The first time Nma appeared on my radar was when I watched their interpretation of Tiger Woods acting less like a squeaky clean billion dollar spokesperson and more like the way he’s characterized in this Maino jam. Their turn around-time is ridiculous, too. Less than 12 hours after Oscar ceremonies wrapped up, Nma uploaded this video summary (with an unexpected, but sweet shout out to Norm MacDonald, who may or may not be huge in East Asia). But for one of Charlie Sheen’s latest tirades, (who Nma is usually all over like a laugh track on a lowest-common-denominator CBS sitcom), Slate V beat the Taiwanese company to the punchline. Producers at the video spin-off of the online current events and cultural magazine made use of the stupid easy animation tools at Xtranormal,...

Guess he's not on the drug called Charlie Sheen. Probably for the best.
Charlie Sheen's publicist, Stan Rosenfield, has quit his long-time job, citing Sheen's increasingly erratic and bizarre behavior and public statements. The final straw seemed to be Sheen's appearances Monday on "The Today Show," in which he vowed to battle CBS violently and demanded a raise for his postponed show, "Two and a Half Men," and then his long, unwieldy backyard appearance with TMZ.
"I worked with Charlie Sheen for a long time and I care about him very much, however, at this time, I'm unable to work effectively as his publicist and have respectfully resigned," Rosenfield said in a statement to TMZ.
Afterward, of course, Sheen struck back, saying, "P**sy. He's not allowed to quit, so you're fired."
Well then.

Alex Jones, the radio host largely responsible for this week’s Charlie Sheen Warlock Tour media circus, went on The View today to thoroughly piss off four women and prompt the saddest face Barbara Walters has ever made. Jones vehemently corroborated his pal Sheen’s unique worldview and insisted that all of Sheen’s recent gloppy word salads were filled with the truth. “He’s tired of being judged and held up as the ultimate demon of this world,” explained Jones. “He didn’t kill people in Iraq. He’s not responsible for the takedown of Building 7…. We’ve got banks bankrupting the United States.

Alex Jones, the host of the radio show on which Charlie Sheen raged last week, vehemently defended the 'Two and Half Men' star on 'The View' (weekdays, syndicated), arguing that Sheen is a recovering addict who's being harassed and portrayed poorly by CBS, Chuck Lorre and the media.
"I just think that he's somebody going through a hard time who got clean," said Jones. "It's wrong from them to be prodding him and demonizing him and trying to make him blow up. That's actually what I believe's going on here ... Charlie's tired of being held up like the devil."

Charlie Sheen has become obsessed with his father Martin's classic war movie Apocalypse Now and had a bloody slogan from the film tattooed onto his chest.
The troubled actor, whose hit sitcom Two and a Half Men has been scrapped for the rest of the season, had the words "Death From Above" inked onto his skin earlier this week (ends27Feb11), claiming the phrase from the Vietnam War epic symbolises his own crazy life.
Explaining the tattoo, which is complete with blood dripping from the phrase onto an apple, he tells U.S. radio host Alex Jones, "It’s the banner from the death card that Kilgore (Robert Duvall's character) is throwing on his victims. But also falling from it is the apple from The Giving Tree. There’s my life. Deal with it."
Sheen also revealed he sees parts of himself in every major character in the 1979 film, from his dad Martin Sheen's Captain Benjamin L. Willard, to Dennis Hopper as an American photojournalist, to Marlon Brando's renegade Colonel Walter E. Kurtz.
Quoting from Brando's character, he adds, "'You have the right to kill me, but you do not have the right to judge me'. Boom. That’s the whole movie. That’s life."
Sheen's future on Two and a Half Men was thrown into doubt after he publicly lambasted show creator Chuck Lorre, prompting producers to pull the sitcom for the rest of its current season.

After a radio interview tour last week that launched countless tabloid headlines and forced the temporary cancellation of his CBS series “Two and a Half Men,” Charlie Sheen will continue his career implosion in an ABC in interview with Andrea Canning that will air during the network’s primetime series “20/20″ and daily on “Good Morning America.”
Sheen has become a regular fixture on celebrity outlets the past few weeks for his numerous arrests, brief hospitalization for “abdominal pains,” and short stints in rehab, but things got increasingly worse for the 45-year-old actor when he opened his big mouth to scumbag radio host Alex Jones on February 24.
In the epic audio, Sheen compares himself to Marlon Brandon’s character, Colonel Kurtz, in Apocalypse Now, takes several verbal swings as Chuck Lorre (creator of “Two and a Half Men”), articulates the phrase “Bible grippers,” rattles off something about “Vatican assassin warlocks,” and...

Entertainment News! Charlie Sheen rant at boss prompts swift cancelation of Two and a Half Men? [Feb. 25] Dude, I guess now we understand why you needed to take a chill pill. CBS has canceled the last four episodes of season 8 of Two and a Half Men. Why? A very angry Charlie Sheen has been verbally ranting and personally attacking his sitcom boss -- creator Chuck Lorre -- for weeks about slow production of the show, but he made his most vicious rant yet on the Alex Jones Show. CBS had figured it couldn't afford to lose Two and a Half Men until yesterday, when they finally decided to yank the show. Charlie Sheen's rant comes just days after father Martin Sheen and brother Emilio Estevez plead for understanding of Charlie Sheen's addictions to drugs and alcohol. The latest rant may have put the nail in the coffin for Two and a Half Men.

Good Lord. Doesn't Charlie Sheen have a publicist? Isn't there anyone who can get this guy to stop? Recently, Sheen took to the Alex Jones' radio program (The Alex Jones Show) to basically rant against Two and Half Men showrunner Chuck Lorre, among other things (including Alcoholics Anonymous).
Despite the fact that Sheen is one of the highest paid TV actors, and the fact that Two and a Half Men is obviously a large money-maker for the network, CBS made the announcement today that it was shutting down production on the show for the rest of this season. Their statement read: "Based on the totality of Charlie Sheen's statements, conduct and condition, CBS and Warner Bros. Television have decided to discontinue production of Two and a Half Men for the remainder of the season."
