No, both of these pictures are not of Rihanna. The woman on the left is actually Andele Lara, a beauty influencer and founder of the website Grow & Glow. But, Andele bears an uncanny resemblance to the pop star, it’s so hard to ignore.

Every few weeks, a new celebrity doppelgänger pops up, and immediately goes viral. Chances are, if you look remotely like a celebrity, you can get all the internet fame you want. And, this is Andele’s moment to shine.

It’s honestly hard to believe that this is not Rihanna.

If you were wondering, yes, she is well aware of her resemblance to the celebrity. She even wrote about in on the About Me page on her blog, saying, “I’ve never had a career of being a ‘Rihanna Look Alike’ – Yes, there is a little resemblance to Rihanna but NO; I am NOT a Rihanna lookalike.”

She even mentioned that she got hate for looking like Rihanna, which is beyond stupid and confusing. Imagine getting hate for looking like someone else, it’s not like she can change that. Maybe, Rihanna will step in to set these haters straight.

Celebrities

Oct 112017

Ali Fazal is currently riding high on the success of his movie ‘Victoria & Abdul’, after delivering an impressive performance as the titular character of Abdul Karim. Moreover, for this movie, he starred alongside veteran actress and Oscar winner, Dame Judi Dench.

Because its honest! Nothing more.. take it for what it is. We all scrutinize our times and leave out the positives. I’d rather be for something , in favour of something than against so many. Its easy to be against. I am For…. what are you ..

A post shared by ali fazal (@alifazal9) on Sep 5, 2017 at 4:14am PDT

Recently, when Dame Judi Dench was asked about working with Ali, the actress revealed, “Ali is a beautiful young man. He’s kind of a romantic, and also a laugher. That’s a good mixture. We got on very well indeed.”

He surely is a happy man these days, and it’s not just because of the success of his movie; recently, he even made his relationship with actress Richa Chadha, Instagram official, by posting an adorable picture with her.

‘Victoria & Abdul’ debuted at no.2 at the U.K. box-office, with the movie grossing $4.7m in one weekend. After such a successful run, it comes as no surprise that the actor is already in talks with a Hollywood director, and this time for a biopic role, according to sources.

A post shared by ali fazal (@alifazal9) on Oct 8, 2017 at 12:29am PDT

When asked about the same, Fazal revealed that he was in talks for an international project and did in fact meet a director. But he stated, “It will hopefully roll in 2018. I can’t elaborate further as I am yet to sign on the dotted line.”

“Filmmakers are experimenting with unique topics and I want to grab these opportunities and not get typecast,” Ali added.

A post shared by ali fazal (@alifazal9) on Oct 10, 2017 at 6:22am PDT

Well, we don’t know much about it as of now, since all the details are being kept under the wraps. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Celebrities

Oct 072017

From being a speaker, to actually hosting the show, Shah Rukh Khan has said that TED Talks is one of the biggest achievements of his life. SRK gave his first TED Talk earlier this year in Vancouver, and has always stated how big of a fan he is of the show.

And, now he is all set to host the Indian version of the show called ‘TED Talks : Nayi Soch’. So, basically TED, which stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, is a media organization which posts talks online for free distribution, under the slogan “ideas worth spreading”.

Since the Indian version of the show – Nayi Soch – is just about to launch, here are some of the reasons why no one should miss this promising show at all.

1. Shah Rukh Khan

Why SRK's ‘TED Talks: Nayi Soch' Is A Must-Watch © TED

Obviously, the first and foremost reason has to be the King Khan himself. ‘Nayi Soch’ is all set to bring back SRK to the small screen. It has been quite some time since he hosted ‘Kya Aap Paanchvi Pass Se Tez Hain?’ and had a brief stint of hosting ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’, and you have to admit, SRK’s involvement in TED Talks is one of the most talked about things regarding the show.

2. The History of TED Talks

With early emphasis on technology and design, the focus of the show has been broadened to include talks on many scientific, cultural, and academic topics. With so many different topics being covered, the amount of knowledge being offered though these talks is honestly unparalleled. With the new Indian version, we can look forward to various perspectives of people from different walks of life.

3. Oprah Winfrey

Well, there are rumours going around that International celebrity TV host, Oprah Winfrey, has been approached to make an appearance on the show. A source said, “Shah Rukh met Oprah when she attended Parmeshwar Godrej’s party in India 5 years ago. He connected with her so well that he decided to call her back to India, and this time on a show that would be honoured to have such an influential person talk to the Indian audiences.”

4. SRK’s engaging approach

As mentioned above, SRK delivered an inspiring 18-minute talk on TED2017’s theme – The Future You, earlier this year. The host, Chris Anderson, even called SRK a “renaissance man”, and that has set the tone for what we have in store for us. Moreover, SRK’s famous wit knows no bounds and he has proved what an incredible host he is with his previous stints, and this time won’t be any different.

5. All the Celebrities that are set to appear

Reportedly, seven episodes have already been shot, and the show boasts of an interesting lineup of celebrities from Bollywood and the sports industry. To name a few, Javed Akhtar, Mithali Raj, and Karan Johar, have already shot for the show.

Well, by the looks of it, the show will not disappoint at all.

‘Pacific Rim: Uprising's' First Trailer Is Here With Giant Robots And Even Bigger Monsters

Celebrities

Oct 072017

‘Pacific Rim’, a movie about giant robots fighting giant multi-dimensional aliens, is back with a sequel, and it promises even bigger robots and even more action. The first look of ‘Pacific Rim: Uprising’ is here and there are quite a few changes but one familiar threat – the Kaiju are back to wage war with humanity once again.

The trailer introduces us to Jake Pentecost, played by John Boyega, the son of fallen Jaeger pilot Stacker Pentecost, who was played by Idris Elba is the first movie. Boyega’s character has a big legacy to live up to, considering Stacker Pentecost literally sacrificed himself to save humanity.

When the monstrous Kaiju begin re-emerging, Jake finds himself at the centre of all the chaos, so obviously it’s time to bring out the giant robots once again, and they are truly incredible. Along with fighting against the kaiju, Jake is also seen making a lot of inspirational speeches in the trailer about preventing the apocalypse. “We were born into a world at war,” Boyega’s rebellious Jake Pentecost bellows.

Even though the trailer doesn’t really address how and why the Jaeger tech has evolved so quickly in the last decade, a shot of two Jaegers in battle might be an indication. Since the Kaiju threat was apparently over, maybe humans used Jaegers to fight each other in the future. But, maybe the re-emergence of the Kaiju was just the thing that people needed to unite against a common enemy.

With new pilots and their new, crazier weapons – everything from electro-whips to shoulder rockets to so many wrist-mounted chainswords – this movie is already extremely exciting.

Since ‘Pacific Rim: Uprising’ is set to hit theatres March of next year, we’ll have to wait a few months, but by the looks of it, it’ll be worth it.

Here’s the full trailer :

Jared Leto Is All Set To Play The Role Of Playboy Founder, Hugh Hefner, In An Upcoming Biopic

Celebrities

Oct 042017

The legendary playboy founder Hugh Hefner just passed away last week, but there are already plans to further immortalise him with a big motion picture. And, it seems like the director behind the upcoming biopic, Brett Ratner, has found his leading man – Jared Leto. Well, that was quick.

Apparently, Jared himself approached Ratner about playing the role of Hefner, after the producer-director got the rights to his story. While talking to The Hollywood Reporter, Ratner said, “Jared is an old friend. He told me, ‘I want to play him. I want to understand him’. And I really believe Jared can do it. He’s one of the great actors of today.”

Even though Jared obviously can’t sit down with the man himself to fully understand him, which will help him portray him on the big screen, Ratner said that “there’s enough footage on Hef out there that Jared will be able to get as much information as he wants.”

Reportedly, Ratner acquired the rights to Hefner’s story from producer Jerry Weintraub after his death in 2015, but he had his eye on the project for about 10 years, with Robert Downey Jr’s name being also thrown in the mix while finding the perfect actor to play Hefner.

But, it seems like Jared has taken on the role now. Everyone knows about his method acting and how it can also get a little out of hand. Apparently, while playing The Joker in ‘Suicide Sqaud’, he sent his co-stars some interesting items, including used condoms and sticky Playboy magazines. Maybe, this was him just foreshadowing that he wanted to play the role of Hugh Hefner.

But, his method acting is not just limited to him being quite weird; to play the role of a transgender woman in ‘Dallas Buyers Club’, he lost 13kgs and waxed his body from head to toe. Before filming ‘Requiem For A Dream’, he gave up sex and lived on the streets for two weeks to better understand the character. Recently, while playing the role of Niander Wallace – a blind, manipulative, replicant manufacturer – in ‘Blade Runner 2049′, he wore contact lenses to mimic the feeling of being blind.

Looks like people aren’t that excited about Jared’s involvement in the biopic, though.

Just read the words “Jared Leto will play Hugh Hefner” and my eyes rolled out of my head and down the hallway.

‘A Hefner biopic…’

The best part is their reaction while they are getting roasted, all in good fun, obviously.

It starts off with our very own Wonder Woman, with a grammatical nightmare of a tweet.

The tweet sums up all the ridiculous criticism of Gal Gadot, and her being cast as Wonder Woman, in one sentence, but it didn’t seem to faze Gadot at all.

Even Jamie Lannister got roasted and his face is priceless.

Yippee Ki-Yay, Bruce Willis Is All Set To Return As John McClane For The Next 'Die Hard' Movie

Celebrities

Sep 282017

Yippee ki-yay, it’ll be good to see you again, John McClane.

It’s difficult to kill this iconic character, no one dies harder. So obviously, Bruce Willis is returning as everyone’s favourite badass New York City cop in an upcoming Die Hard instalment, but the next flick will be unlike anything we’ve seen before.

Even though the plot has been kept under wraps, it is being described as a prequel/sequel of sorts that will involve John McClane in both present day and 1970’s New York. So, now with Bruce Willis on board, casting will now begin for the actor who will portray McClane when he was a NYC beat cop, according to Deadline.

Talking about his return, the 62-year old star said, “I’m really pleased to continue to be asked back to do other versions and other incarnations of Die Hard. The first one really is… that’s all there is. Everything else is just trying to be as good as that film.”

pic.twitter.com/4HTtdoNj33

— len wiseman (@LenWiseman) October 15, 2015

Director Len Wiseman is quite set on finding the right person to portray young McClane. He said, “The right casting for this role is crucial. Those bare feet have some very big shoes to fill.”

Since the next movie is both a sequel to 2013’s ‘A Good Day to Die-Hard’ and a prequel to 1988’s ‘Die Hard’, it seems likely that McClane’s back-story will be told through flashbacks.

Even though the rumours of the upcoming movie surfaced back in 2015, this is the first confirmation of Willis being on board. There’s not much information about it as of now, not even the release date, but this is enough for now, and as for the diehard ‘Die Hard’ fans, they can just binge watch all the previous movies while waiting for the next one.

Amitabh Bachchan's Look From 'Thugs Of Hindostan' Got Leaked And It's Absolutely Fierce

Celebrities

Sep 282017

Oh no, Aamir Khan will not be happy about this.

Recently, when Aamir’s pictures from the sets of ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ were leaked, he was apparently not too pleased about it, and since he’s quite famous for his drive for perfection, it’s highly likely that its true.

Take a look #aamirKhan in all different avatar shooting for #ThugsOfHindostan in a Mumbai Studio.

A post shared by Beingbollywood (@beingbollywood) on Sep 15, 2017 at 9:01am PDT

And now, on top of that, Amitabh Bachchan’s look from the movie has also been leaked. Big B has been writing all about the packed shoot schedule of his upcoming film on his blog, and judging by the leaked picture, it seems like it will all be worth it.

#AmitabhBachchan in #ThugsOfHindostan. Follow @bollywoodirect . . . . . . . . . . . . . #bollywoodirect #bollywood #instabollywood #amitabh #aamirkhan #firstlook #yrf #yashraj

A post shared by Bollywoodirect (@bollywoodirect) on Sep 27, 2017 at 8:33am PDT

Sporting really long locks and quite a serious expression, his look does look like somewhat inspired from ‘The Hobbit’ and ‘Game of Thrones’. In fact, you can’t deny the uncanny resemblance between his attire and Richard Armitage’s character from ‘The Hobbit’.

Teasing fans about the movie, Big B wrote on his blog, “Time for the bed and perhaps a few more pictures from ‘TOH’ where I shoot day and night… So here are the pictures from the very important YRF production: ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ Naah… that cannot be done just yet. Sorry about that.”

‘Thugs of Hindostan’ is set to come out next year, but the anticipation for it has been constantly building up, especially considering the fact that this will mark the first time when Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir Khan will be sharing screen space.

Moreover, it was recently reported that we can expect a huge sword fight sequence in the movie between Amitabh Bachchan and Aamir. A source was quoted saying, “The action sequence being filmed in Mumbai is elaborate. Both Bachchan and Aamir, are currently preparing for the tough task with the action-director, as both are famous for doing their own stunts. Since the two are known to be perfectionists, the scene is expected to be quite a highlight in this lavish film.”

Well, these leaked looks were enough to spike everyone’s interest and now honestly waiting for the movie for the next few months, when there’s so much excitement surrounding it, would be quite a task. But, it will surely be worth the wait.

Chris Pratt Took A 'Which Hollywood Chris Are You' Quiz And Didn't Even Get Chris Pratt

Celebrities

Sep 272017

Hollywood has a serious Chris problem. There’s just too many actors named Chris and sometimes things can get a little confusing, not just for us, but apparently for them as well. So, it turns out Chris Evans, Chris Pine, Chris Pratt, and Chris Hemsworth can sometimes have a little bit of an identity crisis also.

Just like all of us, Chris Pratt also likes to take a lot of random online personality quizzes, but seems like he come across an extremely and relatable one for him.

But, when he took Oh My Disney’s “Are you Chris, Chris, Chris, or Chris?” quiz, the result he got probably made him have an existential crisis. Well, it turns out Chris Pratt isn’t actually Chris Pratt.
