Sam Jackson on Playing Cops, Bad Guys or Both

Prolific badass Samuel L. Jackson's a corrupt cop in Lakeview Terrace, which plays to more than one of his strengths. When we chatted recently, he dished on why he doesn't have to prep anymore to get into uniform and why you should really stop and listen to the bad guys—sometimes. Check the clip to get the full story.

The Express

I went up to Syracuse University and hung out with Rob Brown & Omar Benson Miller, stars of 'The Express', the story of Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis. The film opens on October 10th, and also stars Dennis Quaid. They let us run around the field and throw the pigskin around as we talked about the film. My job doesn't suck....

Jay-Z on Tim Westwood

One of my favorite DJ's growing up was Tim Westwood. I have never seen him play a party or an event, and don't even know if he does that. I've never heard his beats, and I don't know if he does that either. I don't care. His radio interviews and exclusive freestyles from across the pond help ignite my passion for the music, and for the culture. He's kind of looked at sideways by people in London, but for us in The States, he was the first international voice that mattered. He still matters today, as evident by a recent sit down with Jay-Z. Next time your in Chelsea or Notting Hill or Hogwarts, holla @ Mr. Westwood. One love Tim...

Getting Familiar at Get Smart

Lots of folks from 'The Office' and 'Heroes' at the premiere for 'Get Smart' the other night in Westwood. They of course came out to support Steve Carell and Masi Oka's big screen efforts in the adaptation from the 1960's TV Show of the same name. Jenna Fischer seems like a normal midwest chick first, and a big time TV star second. I had to shout out the homey Hyla from Yo Radio who lives and dies for Star Trek when I caught up with the next Mr. Spock, Zachary Quinto, and it's always weird when you interview someone you have seen naked. Get familiar with Ken Davitians balls! (What up Sacha, them shits were on your face!)

Get Smart hits theaters Friday June 20th, and E!'s half hour special I'm co-hosting with G$ Rancic, "Live From The Red Carpet: Get Smart" airs Wednesdat night @ 6:00pm on 'The Vowel'.

Shout out: FemaleFirst

Shout out to Helen from this UK site FemaleFirst. They apparently have it cracking overseas, which worked out great for me to promote the summer preview show I did for E!'s international markets. Mongolia, Ireland, The UK, France...you name it, we are doing it big across seas. Like David Hasselhoff meets Kanye West meets Will Smith big.

For those of you who didn't peep the interview, check it out. What movies are you most excited to see? Let me know....BL
