Courteney Cox’s Ideal Cougar Prey: Zac Efron

Courteney Cox’s Ideal Cougar Prey: Zac Efron I used to have a friend who was a lot like Courteney Cox's character on Cougar Town (which bows tonight on ABC) minus that girlishly neurotic/rockin' the suburbs/sexy divorcée vibe, plus the sleazy mack-on-impressionable college girls vibe. He used to frequent Williamsburg bars to that end. We don't really talk anymore now. But it is odd that we're all so quick to jump the gun and castigate Cox when really olds having been preying on youngs since the dawn of time, and it's mostly because she's a lady whose personal storyline most of the Western world is having trouble with. Or it could be the sneak peeks at the trailer. Either way, wolves, badgers, Donald Trump, and cougars have all been part of this tenuous food chain for ages. What's more problematic for me is that by singling out Zac Efron as her ideal prey, Cox will have to fight Perez Hilton for leftovers.

Richard Linklater Talks Zac Efron, ‘School of Rock 2,’ Future of Filmmaking

Richard Linklater Talks Zac Efron, ‘School of Rock 2,’ Future of Filmmaking When Richard Linklater directed School of Rock -- the first truly commercial success of his career -- you’d think he’d stay in the world of profitable, A-list comedy. After all, the paychecks are bigger than what you’d make for say, directing a film that features Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy discussing abstraction and truth, uninterrupted on the streets of Paris. But Linklater has always followed his own path, and despite making some of the most memorable films of the last twenty years (Dazed and Confused, Waking Life), the director still struggles to get projects off the ground. I recently had the chance to speak to Linklater from his home in Austin, where we discussed his latest documentary, his upcoming period piece Me and Orson Welles starring Zac Efron and Claire Danes, and anything and everything about the movie business.

Drooped Trou Go “From Tribal to Mainstream”

imageLast year, the small Floridian town of Riviera Beach made headlines when “more than 70 percent of voters here backed an ordinance making it illegal to wear trousers low enough to reveal skin or underwear,” says the New York Times. The move inspired similar, subsequent bans in both Lynwood, Illinois, and Flint, Michigan. But now it seems flesh- and underwear-baring is being reconsidered as a form of “free speech” thanks to “public defenders argu[ing] that sagging pants were a constitutionally protected expression of identity.”

Zac Efron Skips ‘Footloose,’ Prowls for Serious Roles

imageInterview's April coverboy/Kanye West lover Zac Efron has just danced off the set of the Footloose remake. Apparently, doing a trio of saccharine musicals that vaguely rip off Grease has killed his appetite for subsequent song-and-dances. But fear not, Efronites!
