filed under: Selma Blair

Having sported gargantuan CGI titties in A Dirty Shave (that's a typo but we're not fixing it!), Selma Blair knows a thing or two about acting with unwieldy prostheses. So it was no problem for Selma to make out with that dude from Beauty and the Beast and his face full of latex and grease paint in Hellboy 2. Our personal theatrical makeup artist, FemaleFirst, quotes the lovely Miss Blair as saying:

"The first time I had to do a scene like that with Ron I did not know if I could touch him, if it would ruin the make-up. I had never worked with a prosthetic love interest before. So I did not know how I would touch him, if it would make a sound, if it would sound like a balloon. I had no idea.

"But after that it felt completely natural and normal and I completely forgot that I was talking to a man in make-up. It felt completely real. I actually really enjoyed it."

Cute! Now she and Nikki Cox's spouse Jay Mohr can get together over coffee and compare notes. Selma will be like, "I thought it was going to taste like burning rubber! But actually it was more of a medicinal, silicone-y flavor with a slight aftertaste of plastic." And Jay will excitedly say, "Exactly! Exactly! And isn't it so funny when it's cold out and you lean in for a kiss and the fake mouth is--" "The same temperature as the frigid air!!!" Selma interjects, and then they share a high five and laugh and laugh. more »

If our disgruntled uncle Amos is to be believed, California is full of fruits and nuts and New York City is full of bohemian weirdos. And it appears that one of those bohemian weirdos is actress/pixie Selma Blair, who donned a sheer shirt to wander around New York yesterday. And in addition to being a bohemian, she is some sort of voodoo queen or possibly an alchemist because even though the top is completely see-through, the two seams that run across the front almost completely cover her actual nipples, no matter which way she turns and bends. Come into our cut and ponder Selma's boobular black magic. You'll scratch your head. And jiggle your nuts.

Here we thought Suri was the follicular trend setter in the Cruise family, but it turns out that Tommy has a 'do admirer in Selma Blair. According to The San Francisco Chronicle:

Actress Selma Blair regrets chopping off her long hair -- because she is regularly mistaken for Hollywood actor Tom Cruise.

The actress, who currently sports a brunette cropped bob, is fed up of being likened to Cruise.

She says, "I had long hair for a while. Almost down to my waist but I wanted to go back to my Tom Cruise cut. I told my hairdresser to shave the back and leave the front long.

"Then someone thought I was Tom from the back. I guess I'd better wear heels."

Oh, honey, we don't think high heels would do much to set you apart from Tom. Maybe ditching that copy of Dianetics and taking off your "I Really, Really Love Vaginas. No, Seriously, I Do" T-shirt will do more to stop the Cruise confusion.

Some celebrities, like Lindy Loho, check into rehab with much fanfare. Some, like Britney Spears, check in three times in a week. Others check in under the cover of night, wearing a bandit's mask and carrying a bindle. Like Selma Blair. A Socialite's Life reports:

Friends tell tabloid the National Enquirer the 34-year-old actress has been struggling with a substance abuse problem that became worse after she split from husband Ahmet Zappa last year.

Blair reportedly checked into Promises rehab facility in Malibu, California last month.

Ah! It's all coming together. For months we've been looking for a possible explanation for her new Marc Almond hairdo. Hard drugs, that'll do it. more »

What we want to say about a Selma Blair nip slip, basically, is that Hellboy, it doesn't take a lot of Pretty Persuasion to get Selma to show The Sweetest Thing, and she's In Good Company because a lot of Girls have their nips In & Out of their shirts these days. We Can't Hardly Wait for another. Ugh. more »
