EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS Ron Burgundy & Jesus RV from Anchorman 2 gets totaled

You never know what you’ll see when you drive down the highway on a Thursday morning. Could be a school bus full of kids on a field trip, a funny bumper sticker, or fancy sports car darting in and out of traffic. But sometimes, you drive up next to a tractor trailer loaded with a blown out 1970s style GMC RV with a huge painting of Jesus and Ron Burgundy on it. Keep reading to see the photos, but I guess I should declare SPOILER ALERT in case you didn’t want to know whether or not the RV survives in the movie or not.

Why did David and Jackie Siegel build “Versailles,” the largest house in the US?

The Siegel Family’s Orlando Versailles, an unfinished house that will be the biggest in the U.S., has become a symbol of the economic times. It’s an icon of wild success and flagrant excess, and also of financial turmoil and ruin. It’s a bit of a Pheonix rises from the ashes of an almost foreclosure.

Meet Grant Bowler, the man who played Richard Burton to Lindsay Lohan’s Elizabeth Taylor in Liz & Dick

We all know there’s something about a Lifetime movie that’s so bad it’s good. The reason why this works is they don’t aim too high. This Liz & Dick movie was NOT going to be an accurate portrayal of Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, or even a complex psychological character study (CLICK HERE to read some of the worst reviews.) It’s really more about our culture’s fascination with Lindsay Lohan than anything else. Lindsay Lohan didn’t sound (she sounded like Lindsay Lohan, sometimes with an accent,) act, or even really look like Elizabeth Taylor, but she was fascinating to watch last night. The movie was more about inside jokes about Lindsay’s headlines over the years: with nods at tabloid headlines, jewels, pills, booze, calling paparazzi to let them know where she is, and hiring her own photographer to take pictures of herself on a boat. After not being able to find work for a while, Lindsay-as-Liz laments how “bored” she is because she’s been working all her life. That’s been a complaint of Lindsay’s throughout all her troubles. Last week on a GMA interview she even said it was “safer” to keep her on set at all times.

But what held the movie all together was the guy who played Richard Burton, Grant Bowler. His roll wasn’t exquisitely written, but he did a smashing job of portraying a masculine emotional-trainwreck to Lindsay Lohan’s Liz. But, who is Grant Bowler?

Lindsay Lohan stepped out of the red carpet last night for the premiere of Liz & Dick (it airs Sunday night on Lifetime at 10 PM EST) in a satiny dress with cut-outs down the front.

She may have skipped out on a Barbara Walters sit-down (rumor is that she refused because Barbara was going to ask probing questions about Lindsay’s drug use, and I guess she’s just not ready for her Whitney Houston confessional moment,) but she did give an interesting interview to US Weekly this week to promote the film.
