True Blood Hunk Rescues Bloody Man Lying in Street
Ryan Kwanten eagerly awaits his superhero franchise. Justin Trousersnake canoodles Olivia Wilde. Reese Witherspoon releases pictures from her wedding. Monday's gossip roundup is a roundup of action.
- True Blood hunk Ryan Kwanten rescued a bloody man lying on the street in Hollywood: "There was a bloody guy lying in the middle of the street at Hollywood and Highland and no one was doing anything. Ryan pulled up, saw the man down, jumped out of his car, and raced over to see if he could help." Apparently Ryan rallied onlookers to help him carry the man to the sidewalk, where he stayed with the man until medical help arrived. Though it is no surprise that a man injured in Hollywood would fall victim to the bystander effect, let us not forget that Ryan Kwanten plays a vampire on TV. [Update: I have been informed that saying Kwanten plays a vampire is "like saying Shatner played a Klingon." My apologies!] We must commend him not only for acting courageously, but for resisting the intoxicating temptation to slurp the blood from barely-breathing gentleman, and suck him as dry as the Mojave.

Reese Witherspoon's "country-elegant" wedding pictures are finally out, but after a week of daily gossip items about the ridiculous fete, I can't stand to write another word about it. Agents marrying A-listers always overestimate public interest in their weddings, probably because their professional opinion is clouded with love. [People, Celebitchy]
- Justin Timberlake and Olivia Wilde "snuggled" at the Roxbury, then left together at 3AM. Viper bite of the Trousersnake, bow-chicka-bow-wow, etc. [People]
- Selena Gomez on Rebecca Black: "I love it! Total guilty pleasure!" This is like an altar boy calling your church outfit sexy: The context and speaker render the message meaningless. [E!]
- The internet tells me that "legendary hip hop DJ Mister Cee aka Calvin Lebrun" was arrested and charged for "public lewdness," maybe for a "gay sex act." If true, that's pretty juicy! But so far it's mostly a rumor on Twitter, plus an arrest record that doesn't specify gayness or sexiness, but does note that that Lebrun is using a Legal Aid lawyer. [AnimalNY]
- Michael Bublé's home was burglarized on his wedding day. Nuptial burglaries are simultaneous a clever thief gambit and such a massive thievery victim bummer. [Radar]
- Taylor Swift played a banjo at the Academy of Country Music Awards this weekend. And Rihanna performed! And Rob Pattinson was there! And someone named Miranda Lambert won a bunch of trophies, and something named Sugarland was something other than a brothel. [E!]
- This sighting is like a time capsule from 1978: "Village People cowboy Randy Jones dressed in a black western shirt with red roses, cowboy hat and leather jacket… noshing on burgers with Debbie Does Dallas star Robin Byrd." [P6]
- This sighting is a string of random celebrities: Drew Barrymore and fashion heir boyfriend Will Kopelman hung out with Vin Diesel and Crispin Glover at a nightclub in Las Vegas. [People]
- Hugh Hefner and child bride Crystal Harris' nuptials will be "the most romantic wedding ever," according to Crystal. Nothing like the absence of a pre-nup—and subsequent promise of $43 million when your 84-year-old fiance kicks it—to get those romantic juices flowing. [Radar]
