Emma is vying against other actresses — including Ellen Page, Natalie Portman, Carey Mulligan, and Kristen Stewart — for the coveted lead role in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, the silver screen adaptation of Stieg Larsson’s best-selling novel.
Watson, who shot to fame as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter films hit the Web last week to debut a new mane of carefully chopped locks. Hollywood snoops say Emma’s hoping the pixie-style crop will demonstrate her desire for the role to Dragon producers and help her bag the part of computer hacker Lisbeth Salander in the

The sun will rise, pigeons will annoy, and Daring Fireball's John Gruber will get inside scoops on Apple product releases. So it goes. This time he's touching on, erm, the iPod touch, making an offhand (though firmly declarative) comment on a post about the Dell Streak: "if you wait a few weeks to buy the Touch, you'll get one with a Retina Display and dual cameras." The man's not one to fool around with such matters, so we tend to believe him here. It also helps that nothing he's saying would be really surprising -- a new iPod in September? With features trickled down from the most recent iPhone? Then again, that camera has proved elusive before.

Yes, OKCupid’s data confirms our suspicions, iPhone users do “do it” more, at a rate of about 2x that of Android users. Perhaps this is because the Android has an easily accessible porn app store?
Presumably iPhone users are better at getting their kicks in real life. But the chart still leaves the greatest question of our time unanswered, “Do attractive people buy more iPhones, or does the iPhone somehow make you more attractive?” In any case, maybe it’s time some of us reconsidered our gadget predilections.

Lively suggested to MTV.com that she and Scarlett team to exchange fighting tactics. Insiders insist that the press was just a cover to land the lead in the upcoming thriller ‘Gravity.’
A source told NY Daily news that Johannson was signed on to star in the Alfonso Cuaron sci-fi production but Lively still approached him to try to cut into to the deal before it was made official.
