The Academy of Motion Pictures and Sciences nominated Viggo Mortensen for Best Actor today. His role as a Russian mobster in Eastern Promises is up for the Oscar. He told the Associated Press that he will not cross the picket line if the writers strike continues:

“No, if there’s a strike I will not go but I have a feeling they’ll solve it. I hope they do. I′m sure my mom would like to see me on TV and so forth, but if there’s a strike I′m not crossing the line.”

For the record, I believe Viggo deserves an Oscar for accurately portraying how I take a shower everyday. (Really NSFW video after the jump.) Here’s hoping the writers strike is solved, so Viggo can accept his award and thank me for teaching him everything he knows. As for the facial hair, I don′t even know. Do chicks dig Civil War beards? I′ve been told I look like Ulysses S. Grant - or was it Abe Lincoln? Whichever one had solid steel abs that could stop a steam engine.

Amy Winehouse is caught on video after smoking crack and admittedly taking six valium. The video was recorded Friday and released today by The Sun. Definitely scope it out. It shows Amy getting her crack on then crawling around barefoot on broken glass trying to find her cat. She’s heard saying:

“If I was that cat I’d leave on my own accord — I’d call a cab. It ain’t right. This ain’t Toys R Us. They took my cat.”

Because apparently to Amy Winehouse, Toys R Us is an appropriate place to smoke crack and leave broken glass lying around. I’ve been saying this for years, but it’s nice to hear someone else say it for once.

Britney Spears’ lawyers will make a request tomorrow for Britney to have “monitored visitation in a therapeutic setting.” Britney’s family and friends apparently are successfully encouraging Britney to get mental health help for bipolar disorder in a “creative way.” Britney has previously refused the judge’s requests to undergo a 730 mental evaluation. If the judge agrees to Britney’s current plan, it could prove troublesome for Kevin’s lawyers, according to TMZ:

Evaluating bipolar disorder is a long process. If it’s done pursuant to a 730 evaluation, the results are submitted to the court. If the Commish were to accept the alternative form of treatment, a doctor-patient privilege could prevent certain information from making its way to the court (unless the privilege is waived).
Here′s the likely scenario based on what we′re hearing: K-Fed (and probably the court) will not want Brit to bypass the 730 evaluation process. That could make it unlikely for Brit’s lawyers to win a bid to regain visitation in a therapeutic setting.

I don’t see the harm in letting Britney have the therapeutic visitation. But, if she starts speaking in a British accent, the shrink has the right to mace Britney in the mouth. Also the children alternate turns wearing a football helmet and brass knuckles to each visit. Or, wait, scratch all that. Is it legal to have a tiger in an office building? For arguments sake, let’s say it’s wearing a lab coat and stethoscope.

Paris Hilton will appear on The Late Show with David Letterman despite being ridiculed by Dave back in September, according to TMZ:

TMZ has learned that Dave’s getting another shot with Princess P, and that she’ll be a guest on the show on Friday, Feb. 1. It’ll be the sixth time she’s been on Dave’s show — and her first since that memorable appearance on Sept. 28.
