Supermodel Nina Agdal Stands In for Kate Upton as L.A. Teen’s Prom Date


Jake Davidson's prom was definitely a night to remember!
While the Los Angeles high school student didn't end up bringing Kate Upton as his date ― although he certainly got her attention with his headline-making YouTube appeal ― he had another certified beauty on his arm for the rite of passage: Upton’s fellow model Nina Agdal.
The big night was Thursday in Santa Monica and it included the requisite prom photo shoot beforehand. Davidson, dressed in a gray tux with a black bow tie, happily posed next to the 21-year-old Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model, who wore a sage green halter dress that showed off her back.
"Had such a great prom night," tweeted the Danish beauty, who recently appeared in an ad for Carl's Jr. that ran during the Super Bowl. "Thank you jakedavidson23 for being an awesome date!"
"You are the best!" the 17-year-old replied. "Thanks so much for everything."
Davidson has since shared some of the details from his big night.
"She came over to my house to meet my family and then we headed over to pre-prom, which is where everyone from school takes pictures," he told Sports Illustrated's Swim Daily blog on Friday. "Then we headed to prom for a little bit, the usual schedule, but with a very unique date."
Davidson noted that Agdal "got along very well" with his classmates, describing her as "incredibly friendly." He added, "All of my guy friends loved the choice and certainly approved, and a lot of the girls wanted to get into photos with us as well. I would venture to say that a few heads turned when I walked in with Nina on my arm."
As for whether anyone tried to steal her away from him, he said, "Not at all."
Davidson made national headlines earlier this year when he created a YouTube plea to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover model Kate Upton asking her to be his prom date. The video went viral ― it has over 2.6 million streams ― and one of the people who saw it was Upton, who tweeted Davidson and said she'd attend if she was free. However, her schedule ended up being booked so Agdal happily stepped in.
Not a bad trade-off by any means, which Davidson also acknowledged, noting, "Nina Agdal is the perfect date!" (Source)


Amanda Bynes Claims She Was 'Sexually Harassed' By Police Officer


Following her arrest on Thursday (and Friday release), Amanda Bynes is claiming she was sexually harassed by one of the police officers.
"Don't believe the reports about me being arrested. It's all lies," the 27-year-old former actress Tweeted on Saturday.
"I was sexually harassed by one of the cops the night before last which is who then arrested me," she alleged. "He lied and said I threw a bong out the window when I opened the window for fresh air. Hilarious. He slapped my vagina. Sexual harassment. Big deal."
The embattled former Nickelodeon star claims she called authorities on the officer.
"I then called the cops on him. He handcuffed me, which I resisted, quite unlike any of the reports stated. Then I was sent to a mental hospital. Offensive," she wrote. "I kept asking for my lawyer but they wouldn't let me. The cops were creepy. The cop sexually harassed me, they found no pot on me or bong outside my window. That's why the judge let me go. Don't believe any reports."
According to the Associated Press, the New York City Police internal affairs bureau is looking into Bynes' harassment allegations.
"As it would with any such allegation, regardless of its credibility, IAB is investigating it," NYPD chief spokesman Paul Browne told the AP.
The extra-long Tweet is one of multiple Tweets Bynes has posted since her release on Friday.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, on Friday (via Twitter), she denied using drugs and stated she thinks she needs "to get another nose job" after seeing her mug shot.
She later commented on her hair, Tweeting, "I need Nicki Minaj's wig person stat! :P" (Source)


Mariska Hargitay Returning for Law & Order: SVU Season 15 After Closing New Deal


Resolving a months-long behind-the-scenes cliffhanger, Mariska Hargitay has inked a new deal to return for Law & Order: SVU‘s 15th season, the actress trumpeted on Saturday via Twitter.
NBC execs, which renewed SVU earlier this month while negotiations with Hargitay were still going on, aren’t the only ones breathing a sigh of relief. The show’s fans — who watched as Hargitay’s alter ego Olivia Benson literally dodged a (potential) bullet in the closing seconds of last week’s season finale — can take comfort in knowing their favorite heroine will survive the ordeal.
The financial terms of the deal are TBD, but it’s safe to say that Hargitay — who pocketed a cool $500,000 per episode for Season 14 — will hold onto her title as TV’s highest-paid actress. (Source)


Charlie Sheen Changes Name Back to Carlos Estevez


Charlie Sheen is going back to his roots for Machete Kills. According to a screengrab obtained by TMZ, Sheen will be billed by his birth name, Carlos Estevez, for the upcoming film.
Though Sheen told  Univision last year, "I don't wake up feeling Latino. I'm a white guy in America," it seems he's once again ready to embrace  his Latino heritage after changing his name to Charlie at the age of 4. Though Sheen's decision to go by Charlie was simply to avoid confusion with an uncle also named Carlos, when he became an actor, he took on the last name Sheen to follow in the footsteps of his father Martin Sheen. On the other hand, his brother Emilio Estevez kept his birth name.
Returning Summer Shows: Where we left off
Martin Sheen has expressed his sadness at not using his birth name, Ramon Gerardo Antonio Estevez. In a 2003 appearance on Inside the Actors Studio, he told James Lipton, "One of my great regrets is that I didn't keep my name as it was given to me. I knew it bothered my dad."
Hopefully his son's recent decision to go by Carlos Estevez, even temporarily, will make papa proud! (Source)


Emily Maynard and Jef Holm Haven't Spoken in "Months"


Jef Holm has nothing but love for his ex-fiancee Emily Maynard, whom he met on ABC's The Bachelorette last spring. Though the couple called it quits in October 2012, the 28-year-old People Water co-founder is on good terms with his former flame (mom to Ricki Hendrick, 7).
"We haven't talked in the past few months. Last time we talked, things were in good spirits," Holm told Us Weekly of Maynard during the Electric Run L.A. event in Carson, Calif., May 24. "I hope the best for her. She's an amazing girl. She's just not the person I'm gonna spend the rest of my life with. I think she'll make somebody happy."
Now that he's single, Holm told Us he's "dating around and hanging out and having a blast. . . I'm not dating anyone in specific. I'm just having fun right now. Life's good!"
Calling 27-year-old Maynard a "homebody," Holm said he's looking for a woman with a more adventurous spirit. "I want someone who wants to share in the excitement of life with me," he explained. "I want to go out and be active and have fun and travel and do wild and fun things! That's what I want."
Holm also shot down reports that he's in talks to succeed Sean Lowe as the next Bachelor.  "I don't know what life holds, but I live life to the fullest and if there was a fun opportunity to do something, I don't know if I'd say no to it," he told Us. "But I'm not planning on being The Bachelor or planning on doing anything like that. I'm focusing on business right now." (Source)



Danneel Harris Steps Out With Jensen Ackles: See Her Huge Baby Bump!


Danneel Harris looked radiant during a rare red carpet appearance on Saturday, May 18. The One Tree Hill actress showed off her growing baby bump in a floor-length jersey dress at UCLA's Spring Sing event. It's the second time the star has stepped out publicly since announcing her pregnancy earlier this year.
Harris' husband, Supernatural's Jensen Ackles, served as a celebrity judge alongside Italian model Elisabeta Canalis and cosmetic dentist Dr. Bill Dorfman. During the show, students performed in front of nearly 7,000 UCLA classmates, alumni, faculty and staff. "Had so much fun tonight!" Harris tweeted. "What an incredible showcase of talent! Be proud UCLA!"
Harris, 34, and Ackles, 35, announced their baby news in January. "Thank you for all the well wishes," the mom-to-be tweeted. "We are very excited about our soon-to-be new addition." The couple later revealed they are expecting a little girl.
In lieu of gifts, the stars asked fans to donate to the charity Hats Off for Cancer. "We are truly grateful for your support and generosity," Ackles said. "You guys are the best!" To date, the parents-to-be have helped raise more than $34,000.
Harris and Ackles married in 2010 in the actor's hometown of Dallas, Texas. Supernatural will return for a ninth season Tuesdays this fall on The CW. (Source)



Feud Alert! Kendall Jenner Fires Back at Frances Bean Cobain




Kendall Jenner has finally responded to Frances Bean Cobain.
Earlier this week, Courtney Love's daughter went on a Twitter rant, slamming Jenner for essentially being shallow and self-absorbed. Late Thursday night, Kim Kardashian's little sister finally responded to Cobain's judgmental comments.
"an individuals feelings are relative to their environment. you don't know me, you don't even know what i was referring to." Jenner, 17, tweeted at Cobain, 20.
"i am aware that i am very privileged and blessed, and im thankful for that everyday, i know there are greater problems... in the world," continued the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star. "i pray for those people every night and give back as much as i can. so who are u to judge me?"
In case you don't keep up with all things Jenner, the Twitter war started earlier this week after Kendall tweeted, "just wish things could be easier sometimes mann."
For some reason, that simple message set Courtney Love's daughter off: "@kendalljenner oh shh. There are kids on earth abandoned&homeless who forcibly drink contaminated water because clean water isn't accessible. oh ya, not to mention, CANCER, famine, poverty, draught, disease, natural disasters, Death. F--k, Humans are so self involved."
And she didn't stop there: "I'd like to thank my parents for providing me with a high IQ & I'd like to thank my grams for encouraging me not to be a self absorbed idiot"
Now that Jenner has said her piece, whose side are you on in this war of words? (Source)


NYPD investigating actress Amanda Bynes allegations


Internal Affairs officers on Saturday were looking into allegations made by actress Amanda Bynes that New York Police Department officers sexually assaulted her when she was charged with heaving a marijuana bong out the window of her 36th-floor Manhattan apartment.
The 27-year-old former child star first alleged during her arraignment on Friday that police illegally entered her apartment after being called to her midtown building. But in a Twitter message believed to be from the troubled actress posted Saturday, Bynes alleged that her arresting officer also sexually assaulted her.
"As it would with any such allegation, regardless of its credibility, IAB is investigating it," said the NYPD's chief spokesman, Paul Browne, referring to the internal affairs bureau.
The Twitter handle used to make the sexual assault allegations Saturday does not appear to be verified by the social network— but Bynes' friend, former Hollywood publicist Jonathan Jaxson, said Saturday the tweet was made from Bynes' account. Twitter did not immediately return a request for comment.
In court on Friday, the former "Hairspray" star made no mention of the sexual assault allegations, though she did complain of illegal entry to her apartment. She's been charged with reckless endangerment, attempted tampering with evidence and unlawful possession of marijuana.
A law enforcement official who spoke to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because of an ongoing investigation said the building manager was with officers at Bynes' apartment when they arrived Thursday night. The official said officers were kept waiting approximately five minutes before she opened the door to them. The same official said the building manager told internal affair investigators nothing untoward happened.
Bynes was released by Chief New York County Judge Neil Ross on her own recognizance because, Ross said, he did not believe her to be a flight risk. But in releasing her, Ross also issued a stern warning to Bynes, telling her not to get rearrested or miss any court dates. She's due back in court on July 9.
Attempts to reach Bynes' arraignment lawyer were unsuccessful Saturday evening.
Bynes rose to fame starring in Nickelodeon's "All That" and has also starred in several films, including 2010's "Easy A." But she has been in the news more recently because of several scrapes with the law and bizarre public behavior.
Bynes was arrested Thursday night after building officials called police to complain she was rolling a joint and smoking pot in the lobby. The officers went to her apartment where they saw heavy smoke and a bong sitting on the kitchen counter. They said she tossed the bong out the window in front of them, prosecutors said Friday.

Sarah Chalke on Son Charlie: "He Had Colic for the First Three Months"


For most new parents, the first few months with a newborn, while filled with sleep deprivation and middle-of-the-night fretting, is also full of sweetness. But for Sarah Chalke and her fiance, Jamie Afifi, their earliest experiences with baby boy Charlie were more tearful than joyful. Speaking to Us Weekly at the 38th Annual Gracie Awards on May 21 in Beverly Hills, CA, the How to Live With Your Parents star revealed that her son suffered from colic after he was born on Dec. 24, 2009.
"He had colic for the first three months. I did not sit down…literally just carried him for three months straight," the 36-year-old actress told Us. The upside to his need for constant movement? Losing the pregnancy pounds was relatively easily. "That's one thing to do [to lose weight]," she quipped.
The stress didn't stop there, though. At 12 months, Charlie was diagnosed with Kawasaki Syndrome, a rare autoimmune disease that mostly strikes kids under age 5. Because the symptoms -- fever; rash; bloodshot eyes; red, cracked lips; swollen hands and feet; swollen lymph nodes -- are seen in many common viruses, affected kids are often misdiagnosed. (According to the Kawasaki Disease Foundation's website, 25 percent of those who don't get immediate treatment develop heart disease.)
Their experience with the ailment -- and getting it diagnosed correctly -- was so harrowing that Chalke brought their story to Shonda Rhimes, the creator of Grey's Anatomy, in the hopes of educating people about the condition. Rhimes ended up devoting an entire episode to the actress' ordeal and even asked Chalke to star as the mom of a Kawasaki-afflicted boy. The episode aired on Mar. 28, 2013.
Fortunately, Charlie, now 3, is happy and thriving — and eating a ton of kale! "I make green juice for him with kale, apple, cucumber, celery and lemon. He's 3, and I've just kind of done it since he was little. I don't know how long it will last…and he will also eat kale chips. I just take kale with a bit of olive oil and a tiny, tiny bit of salt, you don't need that much, and bake it in the oven," Chalke told Us.
And Chalke is laughing again — a lot. "He's making me laugh so hard. I can't believe someone who's three can make me laugh this hard," she said. "The other day he looked so perplexed and really earnest and he asked me, 'Mama, why does shampoo have poo in it?' You could just see the wheels in his mind turning, like, 'What's happening here?'

Ann Curry Failed to Get Angelina Jolie TV Interview for NBC


Hey, she tried! When Angelina Jolie revealed last week, via New York Times Op-Ed piece, that she'd recently undergone a preventative double mastectomy, every journalist in the world wanted to score an interview with the star -- including Ann Curry. The ousted TODAY co-anchor, 56, has long had a special working relationship with Jolie, 37, and partner Brad Pitt, who frequently granted Curry exclusive one-on-one TV chats around the world to help promote their humanitarian efforts and more.
And despite Curry's less-than-affectionate year with NBC following her talked-about exit from TODAY, the network pressured the veteran reporter to ask pal Jolie for an interview, the New York Post's Page Six reports. Alas, Jolie declined the interview -- and all media requests for the time being. The Post also reports that, following Curry's June 2012 departure from TODAY, she would not speak with any other NBC reporters.
Curry made a brief return to TODAY earlier this week, reporting from the devastation in Moore, Oklahoma following the tragic May 20 tornado that claimed the lives of 24 people. "She's a real journalist," one source told Us Weekly recently.
"She just wants to work again." Another friend adds that she is "still upset about what she went through" during her final year on the NBC morning show. (Source)

Elisabeth Moss Slams Jeremy Piven as "Highly Unprofessional"


Don't hold back, Elisabeth Moss! During "Plead the Fifth" on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live Thursday, May 23, the Mad Men actress sounded off on her 2008 Speed-the-Plow costar Jeremy Piven.
"What, besides eating too much sushi, caused Jeremy Piven to quit Speed-the-Plow?" Cohen asked the actress. (Piven, 47, famously left the Broadway production early, claiming he had mercury poisoning.)
"That's a very good one. I could go on and on," Moss, 30, said, with a big smile on her face. "Being highly unprofessional," she gave as her answer.
"We were all surprised," Moss added of Piven's exit. "It came out of nowhere. He just didn't come back one day."
But she did run into him not long after he left. "I saw him like a month later at the Golden Globes," she shared. "When he was supposed to be really sick."
Cohen also asked Moss about the rumors that her Mad Men costar, Jon Hamm, has "impressive anatomy." "Is it true what they say about Jon Hamm's ham?" he asked.
"Well, I mean, we've all seen the pictures so, I mean, I would suppose so," Moss said with a smirk. "That's all I know."
