Did You Know...

Secret Asian (Wo)Man

I don't know about you, but every time I see any of these actors,

I start to think they are hiding a little something about themselves

(or maybe they just have no idea).

What do you think?

22 Best Dance Scenes

Film: 500 DAYS OF SUMMER

Director: Marc Webb

Actors: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Zooey Deschanel, Geoffrey Arend,

Chloe Moretz, Matthew Gray Gubler, Minka Kelly, Clark Gregg

Year: 2009

I never fancied Joseph Gordon-Levitt for a dancer, but he actually holds his own amongst the crowd of professionals. Shaking his groove-thing to Hall and Oates 'You Make My Dreams Come True' was just one of the reasons this film was so fun.

Ginger of the Week

Piper Laurie (Jan. 22, 1932) hails from Detroit and is the daughter of a furniture dealer and his wife. She signed a contract with Universal Studios at age 16 and had her breakthrough role in the film "Louisa". She started to work steadily from then on. It was her Oscar nominated role in "The Hustler" that put her on the map. She was nominated two more times for her performances in "Carrie" and "Children of a Lesser God". Since then she has costarred in "The Faculty", "Other People's Money", "The Dead Girl", and "Hounddog". She'll next appear in "Hesher" with Natalie Portman, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Rainn Wilson.

Brit of the Week

Emily Blunt (Feb. 23, 1983) was born in Roehampton, London to a teacher/actress and an attorney. At age sixteen, Blunt moved to Hurtwood House (college) and studied drama. She was discovered by an agent shortly after and made her theater debut. She made her screen debut in 2003, when she was cast in the series "Boudica". It was her edgy and manipulative role in 2004's "My Summer of Love" that garnered her major attention from Hollywood. She has since costarred in "Gideon's Daughter" (for which she won a Golden Globe), "The Devil Wears Prada", "Charlie Wilson's War", "The Wolfman", and "The Adjustment Bureau". Up next: "The Muppets" (with Jason Segel and Amy Adams), "Salmon Fishing in the Yemen" (with Ewan McGregor and Kristin Scott Thomas), and "Looper" (with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Bruce Willis).

Based on Shakespeare's Taming of the Shrew, this funny, teen flick stars Julia Stiles and Larisa Oleynik as two very different Seattle sisters. When Bianca (Oleynik) wants to start dating, dear old dad tells her that she can as soon as angst-ridden Kat (Stiles) does. This was the American debut of late actor Heath Ledger.
