Morning Meme: Oprah Is a Great Boss, Kellan Lutz's Godlike Physique, and What's Got Cameron Diaz Traveling So Much?

Plus first looks at Voyage of the Dawn Treader, Smurfs, and saying goodbye to Eddie Cibrian's abs.

Eddie Cibrian was hired to be the hot guy on CSI: Miami when Adam Rodriguez left the series to go beHilda’s full-time love interest on Ugly Betty. Now that Ugly Betty is sadly gone, Rodriguez is returning, so Cibrian is going buh-bye. His really, really ugly personal problems probably didn’t help, but I’m sorry to see his abs leave television.

This picture of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has been circulating for a couple of days on social networks. I had hoped it was Photoshopped. I hoped wrong.

We mentioned the 213-foot tall penis that was painted on the drawbridge in St. Petersburg, Russia the other day. Now we learn that it was a political action by a group who protests a lot of things, including homophobia.

Oprah Winfrey owns a lot of things, including O Magazine, which just turned 10-years-old.  To celebrate, she gave every employee an iPad, a custom engraved leather case with their initials, and a check for $10,000. This might be a good time to bring up the fact that my one year anniversary writing for AfterElton.com is in two weeks.

I don’t really know how to describe this abandoned building at 5 Beekman Street in New York City, basically next door to City Hall. It’s gorgeous on the outside, but it’s been abandoned since 1940. But now it’s showing signs of life, and the interior is stunning, and the atrium is a work of art. Go, look at the pictures, it’s almost like sex.

Brothers & Sisters’ Calista Flockhart has finally married her grandfather Harrison Ford. Congratulations!

Katy Perry didn’t mind getting naked for her non-sacrilegious video for “California Gurls” because “We had to do like a closed set because we didn't want anyone seeing anything. You weren't allowed unless you were a girl or you're gay; I think that's probably like the standard for all girlfriends.” Stop enabling her!

Fraggle Rock is being made into a movie, and like anything to do with Muppets, this excites me. What concerns me is the frustrated screenwriter, Cory Edwards getting into a war of words with the Weinstein Co. because they sent his script back and told him it was “Not edgy enough.” I like a good subversive joke, but do my Fraggles really need a dark side? Well, other than Red – you just knew she was a freak.

HP and Yahoo! are teaming up to send advertisements to your HP web-connected printer. That’s all I need, a way to burn through ink even faster.

USAToday, the newspaper milquetoast of the United States has reviewed the second season of Logo’s Beautiful People, and they love it. Does this mean Logo has becone acceptable to Middle America?

You would think vain actors and actresses would be the ones with a problem over IMDB.com publishing everyone’s ages, but it’s the Writers Guild of America that’s protesting. It seems that Hollywood won’t hire older writers and other behind-the-scenes people, and these folks typically can’t afford Botox to fake it.

Cat Rave. You should probably block 15-20 minutes out of your schedule for this.

Kellan Lutz stands outside while he’s fitted for a loincloth/manskirt thing for his role as Poseidon. I’d normally just drool over the body and wonder if he was wearing Calvin Klein or nothing at all under it, I can’t. Between the blinding whiteness of his body and the cloud of cigarette smoke while he texts around the wardrobe people, it leaves me flat.

Breaking Dawn had one redeeming thing going for it, a violent birth that involves the sparkly ripping the baby from the emotionless one’s body. It evidently quite gory in the books, and everyone was curious how you filmed something like that. Evidently, you don’t. You just let it happen offscreen. That screenwriter should probably hire a bodyguard.

Character sketches have been released for the animated Dorothy of Oz, with Lea Michele in the title role. It looks very wholesome.

I don’t really know how to quote Cameron Diaz here. She was asked if she’s ever traveled for love, with the way she’s always all over the globe. She responded “I’m always traveling for c**k. You have to go where it is.” I can respect the honesty.

We're Americans, we don't have to know geography.

The visual commentary on the nightmare in the Gulf of Mexico keeps coming. This mock movie poster isn't quite as good as the recent dead Spongebob art, but it's still fairly intense. Also, I'd just like to add that when you buy the Dawn Dish Detergent with the wildlife donation on the label, be sure you enter the nearly invisible code online, or they don't make the donation to save wildlife.

The pelican is another animal that doesn't look like it should be able to fly.

There are now adorable Lord of the Rings plushies on the market for pre-order. They're so precious I just can't stand it. You can get Frodo, Legolas, Orc, or my favorite, Gandalf.

Isn't he just the cutest?

The first trailer for The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader has made its way into the wild, a full 24-hours before I was expecting it. It has the children, the talking animals, and at some point Aslan roars. I don't know, I guess it looks O.K.

Also releasing a first peek last night was the new Smurfs movie, which is 53 seconds long and has no footage of Neil Patrick Harris, Sofia Vergara, Jayma Mays, Hank Azaria, or Tim Gunn. It does have smurfs, for about three seconds. The color blue features prominently.

The ladies of Hot In Cleveland, which premiered last night, discuss making a multi-camera sitcom in front of a live audience in the era of the single camera comedies with no audience. It just goes to prove these women are pros.

And finally, ABC News reported on the Prop 8 closing arguments, and while it wasn't as partisan as say Fox News or MSNBC, you get the distinct feeling they're rooting for our side.
