Damon Lindelof Talks Lost Ending For Disappointed Fans

Published on May 23, 2012 By

Perez Hilton

Yes, we're STILL talking about this!

When Lost aired its season finale back in 2010 nearly almost everyone was left disappointed.

The show's Executive Producer, Damon Lindelof, has a message for all fans that didn't like his ending: Suck it!

Okay, he didn't say "suck it," but he DID say if he had the chance to rewrite it, he wouldn't.

In a final attempt to settle the score with an angry fan / interviewer, Damon said:

"There were a bunch of other writers on the show, but in terms of my own feelings of how the [show's] ending I made no apologies for it. I do feel like that was the ending I wanted to do. I was always comfortable with the ambiguity of the show."

He goes on to say the ONLY regret he has about is work on Lost is saying "the answers are coming" in interviews.

He admits that there was a while during the first few seasons when the writers were just making shiz up! According to DL, they did a lot of "improvising" in the writer's room until they got an end date for the show and had to wrap things up.

Aw, poor Dev Raza Jaffrey!

While we had no love to spare on Raza's SMASH character and his cheating ways, he wasn't one of the WORST parts of the show (ahem, ELLIS).

Earlier today, we revealed that four characters were chopped from season two of the luke-warm, musical dramedy SMASH, and it appears that at least ONE of them will be missed!

Katharine McPhee, who played girlfriend Karen to Raza's Dev, tweeted her affection for her fallen friend, who returned with a sweet tweet of his own:

Adorbs!

We are rather intrigued as to where the show will go now that Bombshell Marilyn has been cast!

Jim Parsons Admits: I’m Gay

Published on May 23, 2012 By

The Hollywood Gossip


Jim Parsons, the multiple-time Emmy Award winner for his role in The Big Bang Theory, is gay.

Jim Parsons Picture

The actor made the reveal is an understated manner, simply including it as part of a New York Times article profiling his recent work on Broadway, which includes portraying a gay activist in The Normal Heart.

"The Normal Heart resonated with him on a few levels: Mr. Parsons is gay and in a 10-year relationship, and working with an ensemble again onstage was like nourishment," author Patrick Healy wrote in the piece.

A couple tabloid reports, including a 2010 article in The National Enquirer, also mentioned Parsons' sexuality, but this is the star's first public acknowledgement. Hopefully, it's met with nothing but a shrug.

SMASH Trims Its Fat & Fires FOUR Castmembers!

Glorious news!

That slimy, lurking, DETESTABLE Ellis (Jaime Cepero) "producer" character will only be returning to SMASH's second season to wrap up his story line.

Thank the television GODS!

AND Karen’s (Katharine McPhee) cheating, depressed lover-boy Dev (Raza Jaffrey) has also been downsized to series unregular, along with Julia’s boring husband Frank (Brian d'Arcy James) and her not-so-secret beau Michael Swift (Will Chase).

Good riddance!

Now new showrunner Josh Safran just needs some power-player leading lads, no more of these weasly, wet types!

But we don’t necessarily want more harda** directors, either...

We're happy with the one we've got!

Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons Officially Comes Out: I’m Gay!!

BAZINGA!!!

Emmy-winning Sheldon Cooper Jim Parsons has finally revealed his Big Bang news...

Surprise! He's gay!!

Yes, he once thanked Todd Spiewak, his partner of ten years, during a Golden Globe acceptance speech. And yes, tabloids speculated an engagement. But Jim never officially addressed his sexuality. Until now..

In a New York Times profile, the status of his sexual orientation was nonchalantly addressed, confirming the Theory that many fans already held.

And to all of this we say CONGRATS! ALL OVER!!

Sofia Vergara Is In Heat Recently Single In The Caribbean

Published on May 23, 2012 By

Perez Hilton

Well that didn’t take long!

Sofia Vergara took a vacay to the Caribbean island of Anguilla after finally admitting to getting dumped by splitting with her ex Nick Loeb a few weeks back.

Recharging the batteries is always a good idea!!

We feared the Modern Family star might take the split hard but she’s actually rebounding better than LeBron James!!

Apparently she's LOVING her new single status on an island paradise!!

One eyewitness confessed:

"Sofia looked like she was having a blast with her friends and got really flirty with some of the staff at the resort... She was using the escape as a way to reclaim her bachelorette status. Obviously the staff had to keep it professional, but you could tell she was getting a kick out of making them blush."

Whoa! Good for you, gurl!!

We love to see tigers back on the prowl!!
