FLUFF: Jennifer Lawrence had a story about butt plugs. Enough said.

BREAKING FLUFF: Harry Potter is coming to the stage. We repeat: Harry Potter is coming to the stage!

Stay cool, nerds, but West End theatre and Harry Potter may have just appeared within the same headline on The Daily Mail, and that can mean only one thing:

THERE’S GOING TO BE A HARRY POTTER PLAY, YOU GUYS!

Baz Bamigrove writes:

I can exclusively reveal that a play based on J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter tales will open in the West End within two years.

Rowling will not write the stage piece — however, she will co-produce and collaborate with a playwright.

Imagine if this ends up being a musical!

Imagine if Daniel Radcliffe reprises his role! He could totally do the prefect’s bathroom scenes in the nude, Equus style!

Imagine if they use War Horse technology to make the dragons in the first test of the Triwizard Tournament!

Anyways, we’re going to stop talking about it. No one wants to die of a nerdgasm-induced heart attack so close to Christmas.

1. Jennifer Lawrence: “I had a copious amount of butt plugs.”

Another day, another awesome J-Law interview.

This time, Jennifer’s been on Conan. Talking about her new movie, American Hustle.

And, you know, her butt plugs.

It’s a long story. I had a copious amount of butt plugs. Tons of butt plugs. All different kinds of colours.

The maid was coming so I was like, “Well I’ll just shove this under the bed so she doesn’t see all these butt plugs. She might not know they are for a joke.”

So then I come back and they were in this beautiful display on my bedside table.

We actually don’t know what we’re going to do once all of this promotion for American Hustle is done. Probably spend our days at home weeping while watching and rewatching this:


2. Don’t panic, world. Justin Bieber’s mum is going to straighten him out.

It has been a rough year for the Biebs: spitting on fans, urinating in mop buckets, graffitiing hotel walls, night club brawls, visiting brothels, and you know, supposed RETIREMENT– just to name a few highlights. So it’s no surprise that his mother, Pattie, is planning to take control. She spoke to Extra host Mario Lopez to talk about her son’s very public and very wild antics:

“If it affects the world the way it does, imagine how it affects me as a mom seeing those headlines. I definitely am a mom first and I care deeply about how he is feeling and what he is going through.”

Pattie also said she is going to have a very serious talk with her pop star son following the latest controversy: Biebs was reportedly involved in a bloody brawl during his recent weekend in the Hamptons.

Looks like Bieber might be getting some tough love from mum this Christmas.

3. Mariah and Buble. If this video was any more Christmas-y, it would be Mary and Joseph’s birth video.

Mariah Carey appeared on Michael Buble’s Christmas special overnight. And the duet they performed was everything you’ve imagined it would be:

4. Beyonce is one step closer to winning an Oscar.

Beyonce and Jay Z have once again proved that they rule the music industry, both scoring longlist nominations for the Oscar’s Best Original Song.

Also making the cut are Ed Sheeran’s ‘I see Fire’ from the Hobbit, and Coldplay for their song ‘Atlas’ in this years Hunger Games.

The final nominations will be announced on the 16th of January, with Oscars night on the 2nd of March.

5. Macklemore’s gingerbread house is better than yours.

We don’t even care if it’s just a picture they pulled it off Pinterest. That is incredible.

6. Melbourne schoolgirl discovered on The Ellen Show releases her first album.

Remember Georgia Perry? The Melbourne Girls Grammar student Ellen DeGeneres met when visiting Portia’s old school and then brought back to her show in LA to sing?

This should jog your memory:

Well, it turns out that Georgia is taking this whole music thing rather seriously, and has brought out a Christmas album for the holidays. The album features “all of Georgia’s favourite Christmas songs” including ‘Jingle Bell Rock’ and ‘Santa Claus is Coming to Town’.
