“Yeah, I would like to work with [Lady Gaga]. It’d be cool. I think she’s fresh. I haven’t seen that before. What she’s doing now is new, with all the crazy dress codes and all that stuff. … A lot of things in music/entertainment are recycled. It’s gonna sound like a dis, but it’s no disrespect that you would see Lil Wayne wear a little black vest and that hat. I saw Cyndi Lauper wearing that; it was [just] on a different artist. And even the glasses that Jay-Z had on, that is Frank Sinatra. These are all iconic pieces coming back.” —50 Cent [Rap Up]

I certainly think he should have a chance to audition.” —Stan Lee on the “Donald Glove for Spider-Man” campaign [Splash Page/MTV]

“I really want to play Wonder Woman. I am obsessed with Wonder Woman.” —Jennifer Love Hewitt [“I wish we could do that with Friends.

“The religious symbolism is not meant to denote anything negative, but represents the character’s battle between the dark forces of this world and the spiritual salvation of the Soul.
