STOP WHATEVER IT IS YOU’RE DOING! We have some VERY exciting news!

Kristen Wiig is coming back to Saturday Night Live!! Well, sort of.

The HIGHlarious actress will be returning to studio 8H to host SNL on May 11th, and it will be her first appearance since she left the show at the end of last season! Needless to say we’re SUPER stoked!

We were a little disappointed that Kristen didn’t make a surprise appearance when her good friend Melissa McCarthy hosted earlier this month, but we knew she couldn’t stay away for long!

And as if the news wasn’t exciting enough, the musical guest will be Vampire Weekend!!

But wait, there’s more!

It has also been announced that Ben Affleck will be hosting the very next weekend with Kanye West, and with Zach Galifianakis taking over on May 4th with of Monsters and Men, it’s looking like it’s gonna be a GREAT month for SNL!

But lets be real here. Kristen is DEFINITELY the one we’re most excited to see back in action! Hopefully we’ll get to see a little bit of Gilly, the Target Lady, or maybe even a Bjork impression!

What about U? Which characters are U hoping Kristen will bring back?

Does this mean someone might be sharing a dorm room with Ben Affleck?!

We'd be soooo jelly, but unfortunately, not quuuite!

Ben won’t be headed to college at Brown University, but he will be getting a degree…

…an honorary degree!

The actor and director has been selected to receive an honorary Doctor of Fine Arts (DFA) from the prestigious school.

We can't wait to see him donning the classic robe and cap as he accepts the degree next month for his achievements in cinema.

We have a feeling he’ll actually make that dorky cap look DAYUM good!

He might not have gotten an Oscar for directing, but he’s getting his degree!

We think that’s just as good!

This is a Hollywood first!!

While giving a promotional interview for the forthcoming 'roid rage action-dramedy Pain & Gain, famed director Michael Bay SHOCKED the dookie out of our kabookie by apologizing for making several one crappy movie!!

The man was displeased with the Bruce Willis, Liv Tyler, and Ben Affleck big-time blockbuster Armageddon, and he told the Miami Herald as much.

He admitted

You've heard about Live Below The Line, right??

The challenge is to live on $1.50 of food and drink for at least one day between April 29 - May 3 to raise awareness about extreme poverty — doesn't really sound that hard to be honest, but we're dealing with people who are accustomed to decadent things! It might be harder than you think!

Not only did Ben Affleck commit, but so did the likes of Josh Groban, Sophia Bush, Hunter Biden, and husband and wife Cooking Channel personalities Debi Mazar and Gabriele Corcos! The whole point is to help people empathize with the 1.4 billion people faced with brutal hunger and poverty, and encourages global citizens to participate and raise funds to support the partner organizations.

Hey, wouldn't you be?

With this week's horrible bombing at the Boston marathon, we think it's time to reflect on some of the wonderful things that make up one of the greatest cities on Earth!

So, grab your favorite Celtics jersey, put on your Red Sox cap, grab a bowl of chowdah and munch down on some of our favorite celebrity Bostonians.

WE HEART YOU, BOSTON!!

How sweet is this??

Matt Damon and his wifey Luciana Barroso were all smiles as they walked hand-in-hand on the beach in St. Lucia, and why wouldn't they be? They JUST renewed their wedding vows 24 hours earlier!!

The actor spared no expense for the special occasion and rented out the ENTIRE Sugar Beach resort!

We're guessing they needed the extra space for the jumbo-sized guest list that included Ben Affleck, Jennifer Garner, George Clooney, Jimmy Kimmel and MANY more!

Matty went all out to celebrate their eight years of happy marriage, and from the looks of it, it definitely paid off!

Congrats you two love-birds!
