UFC Interested In Bobby Lashley, Vito Bookings, Flair Update
– UFC President Dana White has changed his tune regarding the possibility of working with up-and-coming MMA heavyweight Bobby Lashley. After claiming he didn't know who Lashley was in an interview several months back, White now says he's got his eye on Lashley. At the UFC 101 post-show press conference on Saturday night, White told CBS Sports "People have been asking me about him. Yes, we're watching him."
– Mandy.com, which features information on casting calls and jobs in the entertainment industry, currently has a listing seeking female extras (any age, any ethnicity) for a Ric Flair rap music video. The description reads, "The Ric Flair video will be a high concept fast pace hip hop video that focus on the essence of hip hop : big energy, good rhythm, and some dance moves." The one-day shoot takes place on August 21st in New York City. Ladies, send those headshots to qwkfilms@gmail.com.

– I Love You, Man releases today on DVD and Blu-Ray, and we will be giving away two copies of the I Love You Man DVD to two active members of our forums. Paul Rudd and Jason Segel are "howlingly funny" (Peter Travers, Rolling Stone) in "one of the funniest movies of the decade" (Steve Oldfield, "Fox -TV"), a story of a guy with no male friends who finds himself in need of a best man. After a series of awkward outings, Peter (Rudd) finally bonds with fun-loving Sydney (Segel). Rudd and Segel's "bro-mance" takes male-bonding to hilarious new heights in a story that comically explores what it truly means to be a friend.
The I LOVE YOU, MAN DVD and Blu-ray presentations include commentary by director John Hamburg (writer, Meet The Parents, Zoolander) and stars Paul Rudd and Jason Segel, The Making of I Love You, Man, 50 minutes of hilarious outtakes, deleted and extended scenes and a gag reel. If you can't wait for the contest, you can purchase the movie for only $15.99 at Amazon.com by clicking here. To purchase it on Blu-Ray for only $25.99 from Amazon.com, click here.
The contest ends on August 31st, and the DVDs will be sent in the middle of September. For full details of the contest, click here.
