Russell Crowe takes a break from Superman for a bike ride in Beverly Hills

It looks like Russell Crowe is looking to keep fit for his role as Jor-El in Man of Steel currently shooting in Vancouver, British Colombia. The Australian actor has been very vocal about his dedicated workout routine keeping Twitter followers updated with descriptions of what exercises he is engaging in.

These shots were taken of Russell during a bike ride around Beverly Hills, California on Friday, October 7th, 2011. The pounds are definitely falling off as he is also hitting the weights and doing a bit of swimming.

Crowe stars as Superman’s biological father in this Zack Snyder re-boot starring British hottie Henry Cavill in the lead role.

Looking good Russell!

James Roday and Dule Hill kick off new season of Psych

Are the Psych-o’s and soon-to-be Psych-o’s ready for an all new season of pineapples, silly nicknames, and fabulous guest stars?! The Bromantic duo of James Roday and Dule Hill walked the green carpet at the “Psych” Season 6 premiere held at Ziegfeld Theatre on Thursday, October 6th, 2011 in New York City. Joining them at this fabulous event were co-stars Maggie Lawson, Kirsten Nelson, Corbin Bernsen and Timothy Omundson plus guest stars Phylicia Rashad and Ally Sheedy.

I had the pleasure to catch up with James and Dule earlier this week to talk about all the fun stuff coming up this season and what they have going on while they are on hiatus. They also talk about the HUGE guest stars making appearances including Joey Mcintyre from New Kids on the Block, Malcolm McDowell and William Shatner.

Poor Dule was suffering with a cold so we thank him especially for making the extra effort to talk to us. I hope you are feeling better!

So without further ado, here are some excerpts from our interview:

To kick off our chat, I had to make reference to the Psych-out that was released earlier this week showing James and Dule doing the pendulum dance with NKOTB’er Joe McIntyre! Yep, the guys had “The Right Stuff” and I wanted to know what the chances were that the remaining members of High Top Fade Out would ever team up with Jordan Knight, Donny Wahlberg, Danny Wood, and Jonathan Knight for a New Kids on the Block blow-out episode!

Dule Hill: It would be a fun Psych-Out. I don’t know if that’ll ever happen; that’s a lot to ask. I think we can maybe work it out where we can get some members of High Top Fade Out, our (Quarterblack), and a member of New Kids on the Block all in one season. I think we can make that happen this year.

For my fellow Block-heads, here are more details on the Joey Mac episode:

James Roday: That was our Superhero episode. There’s like a vigilante superhero like combing the streets of Santa Barbara, cleaning them up one bad guy at a time. And it may or may not be Joey, we don’t know.

When I asked you guys on Twitter what you wanted to know about the guys, @jvento wanted to know what James Roday would be doing during hiatus. While I did ask him, he preferred to give his co-star a shout-out and talk about his upcoming Broadway return!

James Roday: Well if Dule will allow me to sing his praises, he will be appearing on Broadway in New York, starting in December, in a play called Stick Fly opposite Mekhi Phifer and Ruben Santiago-Hudson and a trio of wonderfully rich Broadway stage actresses that everyone should make a point to circle in their calendars and get to New York to see the man on stage.

Dule Hill: It should be a good time. And it’s produced by Alicia Keys, who I just found out is doing the music for the play. So you know, even if we are terrible the music will be good.

Tune in to an all new season of Psych on Wednesday, October 12th at 10/9 central only on USA Network.

“Sons of Anarchy” star Maggie Siff smiles in California

Are things on Sons of Anarchy getting crazy or what?! With all of Clay’s (Ron Perlman) secrets starting to unravel and the future of the club hanging in the balance, Tara holds all the power in a stack of old letters.

Clay IS getting desperate and why shouldn’t he? He murdered John Teller, one of SAMCRO’s founding members all while shackin’ up with his ol’ lady Gemma (Katey Sagal). If Jax (Charlie Hunnam) finds out about all this, there is no doubt he will kill Clay and make him pay for the death of his father.

We know that death is imminent for one character but who could it be? All eyes are on remaining co-founder Piermont “Piney” Winston who knows Clay was behind John’s death and has threatened to tell the club about the deceit if he doesn’t stop using them to mule drugs for the Cartel.

I feel the worst for Opie (Ryan Hurst) who has already lost his beloved wife Donna (Sprague Grayden) on Clay’s orders and now maybe his father as well?

Other suspects are Bobby (Mark Boone Jr) who has made no secret of his disagreement of the drug running, Juice (Theo Rossi) who caused the drug supply to run low last episode, and the aforementioned Tara who opened Piney’s eyes to the deceit and could very well tell her fiance Jax at any moment.

At least actress Maggie Siff, who plays Dr. Tara Knowles on the FX hit drama, looks happy in real life! She was spotted by photographers during a check up at a doctors office in Beverly Hills, California on Tuesday, October 4th, 2011.

Season 4 of Sons of Anarchy is a “must watch” this fall! Tune in Tuesday nights at 10pm only on FX.

Here is the preview for next weeks episode:

Keanu Reeves surprised over motorcycle crash!

Keanu Reeves was left surprised when he made his return to his parked motorcycle only to find it had been in an accident! The star of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee and The Matrixlooked puzzled when he found a police officer waiting to inform him what had just happened to his new Norton bike.All in all it looks like Keanu took the news in stride. You can see him hop on his hog and see if it had survived and it looks like things will be ok.

Luckily our handsome hunk was not on board when all this went down!

Imagine how the person who hit it will feel when they find out they hit the Hollywood actors property?! If it was me, it would slightly be a blessing in disguise!

Elijah Wood keeps it low-key in Los Angeles

The universe must have been listening to my inner most thoughts today. I was just thinking this afternoon how much I was missing the FX dramedy, Wilfred and suddenly I was gifted with these new images of Elijah Wood! (must think of him more often!)

The 30-year-old cutie was photographed during a stop at a medical building in Beverly Hills, California on Thursday, October 6th, 2011. He didn’t seem too pleased about being photographed as is evident by the rather peeved look on his face!

Come to think of it, I might have been thinking about Elijah after seeing him in Back to the Future II earlier this week. He was so cute even then as the little boy at the arcade machine.

I can’t wait to see more of him in the upcoming The Hobbit films and of course, season 2 of Wilfred next year!

Katie Holmes and daughter Suri were spotted hanging out with Tom Cruise on the set of his latest flick, One Shotin Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on October 6, 2011. Katie kept it super casual in a striped tank top and flared blue jeans while Tom looked super cool in a brown leather jacket and boots. Of course, the always stylish Suri looked quite adorable in a pink top and long white skirt.

Over the weekend, Tom and the fam were at the wedding of David Ellison, executive producer of Cruise’s upcoming film, Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol in Palm Springs, California. Tom was even reportedly part of a dance off!

Looks like the days of Risky Business are still in him!

Salma Hayek: ‘I like having financial independence’

Actress Salma Hayek graced the cover of the November issue of Redbook looking absolutely stunning in fitted purple dress!The Puss In Boots star discussed how despite being married to Louis Vuitton owner (not to mention billionaire) Francois-Henri Pinault, she still works to have her own independence.

“I work hard, I make my own living and I love it. I like having financial independence. I don’t ever want to have to depend on anyone completely. But when I have troubles sometimes, its nice to have someone there to help.”

Salma is not only a killer actress, but she is also one hot mama to her 4-year-old daughter Valentina! The 44-year-old shared some great advice all women (mother or not) should follow.

“I was having dinner with my friend Demi (Moore) and she said, ‘Oh, my God! Every time I see you, you are so put together!’ And I told her it’s a lot easier to grab a fabulous little dress than to put together a whole casual outfit with jeans, a top, right jacket and great shoes. You slip on a dress and you can’t go wrong.”

All in all, Salma is not a force to be reckoned with! This Latina loves to play dress-up for her hubby but don’t get her confused for any doll!

“Like I said, I’m still a Mexican. I like to play fashion with him, but I’m nobody’s Barbie.”

This spicy chicka could rule the world with this motto.
