Why does the Academy feel the need to ONLY choose people from Tower Heist to produce and host the show???

Now that Tower Heist director Brett Ratner and Tower Heist producer/star Eddie Murphy have resigned from the Oscars, Academy president Tom Sherak is interested in getting TOWER HEIST producer Brian Grazer to take over for Brett.

No word yet on who will take over for Eddie, but there are plenty of other Tower Heist actors who would probably be up for the job! Maybe they can ask Ben Stiller or Matthew Broderick! OR maybe Alan Alda is game!

What do U think? Should Brian Grazer take over as Oscar producer? Or would U prefer someone NOT associated with Tower Heist???

Aw! Looks like Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux have support from their friends!

During the premiere of Tower Heist in NYC on Monday, Ben Stiller and his wife, Christine Taylor, praised the couple!

This is brilliant!

A new video celebrating the Bill Clinton Foundation's 10th anniversary appeared on the Funny or Die website and it is HIGHlarious!

Celebs such as Ben Stiller, Matt Damon, Kristen Wiig, Sean Penn, Ted Danson, Mary Steenburgen, Kevin Spacey, and Jack Black joined none other than Bill Clinton himself for a video filled with LOLz.

Even Sean Penn made us chuckle! Crazy, right???

Ch-ch-check it out above.

Hopefully this rental service is better than Netflix! Ha!

We've just learned that Ben Stiller has signed on to star in Fox's RentaGhost, which was originally a Warner Bros project that had Russell Brand attached.

The movie is being written by Night at the Museum screenwriters Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant, and it's based on a BBC series that ran from 1976 to 1984.

Here's how the series has been described:

We have a feeling that Ben Stiller's SNL ratings would have been higher if the world knew that Derek Zoolander would be making his triumphant return on the show!

Last we heard about Zoolander, Ben's wife Christine Taylor was saying that her hubby and co. were still trying to make a sequel happen.

Now,

Tell us, Jen! Which SNL star partied the hardest? It was Jason Sudeikis, wasn't it? LOLz.

This weekend, Jennifer Aniston and BF Justin Theroux attended the Saturday night Live wrap party after coming out and showing their support for host buddy Ben Stiller.

What'd you two talk about with Ben? More Tropic Thunder? Along Came Polly 2: Polly Harder? A Polly/Thunder crossover movie called Tropic Polly???

We want the deets!

Not too good, not too great. Just on par-for-the-course, if you catch our drift.

Despite surprise appearances from Hugh Jackman, Kenny G and Zoolander, Saturday Night Live was down in the ratings from the two episodes previous to it. Seems Ben Stiller doesn't have the star power of Alec Baldwin and Melissa McCarthy, averaging a 4.8 rating/12 share. In comparison, Alex's numbers with 5.2 and Melissa's were 5.1.

So, it wasn't a huge slide, but a slide none-the-less.

Hopefully Tower Heist will do better. BTW, where was Eddie Murphy?!
