Or maybe that was just us. Anyway, once cameo in The Incredible Hulk that you might have missed was Captain America. Seriously. Captain America really was in The Incredible Hulk, but only if you bought the DVD and then squinted until your eyes bled for one specific millisecond during a deleted scene set in the arctic.

As Film School Rejects has discovered, you can quite clearly see Captain America buried in the snow in the picture above, taken from The Incredible Hulk. This nicely lines up the new Avengers film, because it presumably shows how Captain America fought in World War II and then got frozen in the arctic before he was brought back to life in the present day to fight evil alongside Iron-Man, The Incredible Hulk and Thor.

Unless, you know, that isn’t a picture of Captain America at all and it’s just a smudge, or a rock, or a shadow, or some penguin wee. But it isn’t. It’s definitely Captain America, Definitely.

Come to think of it, we think we saw another one of these Avengers cameos in Iron Man. At approximately the 48:22 mark, there’s a tiny movement in the bottom left hand corner of the screen. You won’t notice it unless you buy the Blu-Ray and view it frame by frame through an atomic microscope until you go mad, but it’s actually Thor performing a perfect rendition of Let’s Get Ready To Rhumble by PJ & Duncan in perfect Esperanto. Seriously, watch it. It’s not like you’ve got anything better to do with your time, is it?

Found: Captain America in The Incredible Hulk – Film School Rejects

We still don’t know who that was from, but today we’re almost entirely in-tact and just don’t really care. We figure it might have been the Queen though, so we abandoned our nefarious plans, resulting in enough spare toilet paper to last us three entire years.

We were gonna get her – but good!

Some people though, the kind that have never had masonry thrown through their living-room windows, they still think it’s OK to mess with Queeny. For instance there’s some crappy-looking Christmas movie that we’ve never heard of wherein she had a cameo – they didn’t pay her for it.

Thing is – she was even on screen for several minutes!

Queen Latifa wants her money and she wants it now. So either you see to it she gets paid, or we’re gonna have to make this little encounter unpleasant. She says you owe her $275,000 – but she wants it all in meatball sandwiches. We suggest you start rolling meat, and maybe buy a bigger refrigerator to keep it in until she decides it’s time to eat. We suggest the Frigidaire line. They have wonderful technicians that will come to your home to help hook things up – plus a terrific warranty.

Now readers, let us ask you – was that intimidating? We were really hoping it was but it’s hard to tell how things come across in such neatly typed columns. We do feel tough right now, though. In fact let’s take it all a step further and tell Queen Latifa that half those meatball sandwiches – half of them are ours. We shall eat them at our own leisure and there’s nothing she can hopefully do about it.

We told her we were expensive when she hired us.

But Latifa didn’t really hire us, and she’s little to no interest in receiving payments in anything but bank-transferrable denominations. She actually wants the money she’s owed so badly that she’s willing to sue for it. Reuters says:

“Lawyers for Queen Latifah, an Academy Award-nominated actress and Grammy Award-winning singer whose real name is Dana Owens, said in a lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court the California-based company, Perfect Christmas Productions, had breached her contract and owed her $275,000 for a cameo role in the [probably crappy] film.

“The Perfect Holiday,” which was also produced by Owens, 38, was released in December 2007, starring Terrence Howard and Gabrielle Union. It grossed more than $5.8 million by February, 2008 in the United States, according to Box Office Mojo.”

We threw in the [probably crappy] bit up there – did you see it? That there is the power of parentheses. They are largely unchallenged in the written world, and can clarify absolutely anything.

Back to Queeny though – she’s suing some small movie company because they never coughed up her earnings. Not a wise move, movie company – she used to be a rapper you know. You don’t mess with rappers.

Unless they’re already crying. If it’s a crying rapper the gloves come right off.

Does anybody out there love Lindsay Lohan?

Does anybody out there love Ugly Betty and Lindsay Lohan?

Well, if the answer to all three is yes, then brace your bladders for this piece of news: Lindsay Lohan is reportedly going to star in…Ugly Betty!

However, if any of you out there don’t love Ugly Betty or Lindsay Lohan then, seriously, stop reading now, because the boredom you may experience from the rest of this post could be crippling.

Rumours of Lindsay appearing in the show have been rife for literally days now. ‘Did you hear that Lindsay Lohan might be in Ugly Betty soon?’ hecklerspray overheard someone said about a week ago.

A few days later we heard someone asking someone else ‘Is it really true that Lindsay Lohan might be on Ugly Betty soon?’ before that someone else replied to that someone ‘I have no idea, I wonder if it is true that Lindsay Lohan will indeed be appearing on Ugly Betty soon.’

Well, it’s time for all those people to shut up and worry about something else, because Lindsay Lohan was spotted on the set of the sitcom in LA yesterday.

It is reported that she will feature in the show’s season finale, which airs on May 22. However, details about the part she will play are scarce.

Rumour has it that she is going to play a former high school friend of Betty that used to bully her when they were younger.

Is it true that Lindsay Lohan is going to star in Ugly Betty as Betty’s old friend who used to bully her?

We don’t know, it’s still a rumour, talking about it won’t achieve anything, just wait and see.

According to Variety.com, the actress, famed for getting drunk, driving drunk and occasionally getting her baps and chuff out (and singing and acting) will also appear in five more episodes of the upcoming season.

Whereas TVGuide.com claimed that Lohan could in fact be lined up for as many as eight episodes of the upcoming season. Eight! Fucking hell!

Lindsay will join such luminaries as Victoria Beckham and Naomi Campbell in making an appearance on the show.

If you’re interested to find out more about Victoria and Naomi’s appearances, try looking somewhere else.

So, that said, Britney Spears must be feeling a lot of pressure right now as she continues filming her sitcom cameo for How I Met Your Mother.

But it's OK, because Britney Spears seems to be coping well at her new job. That's partly because her How I Met Your Mother co-stars are being somewhat effusive with their praise for her, and partly because Britney Spears clearly doesn't have the self-awareness to realise that every last frame of her cameo is going to be scrutinised for signs of mental illness until it makes the Zapruder film look like a YouTube video of a kitten in a mug.

Britney Spears and her people have had a pretty good handle on her post meltdown rehabilitation so far. It's basically involved listening to her father, spooking out a few children to keep her toe in and staying out of everyone's way. It's worked well so far, especially the latter – to protect her from public inspection, Britney Spears doesn't even appear in her new music video – but it might all be about to come crashing down around everyone's ears. 

As we reportedly yesterday, Britney Spears is filming a cameo for How I Met Your Mother. As far as we could see, there wasn't a single positive we could take from the news – Britney was opening herself up to the public too soon, we said, plus she was rubbish in Will and Grace. But worst of all, by stating that she wanted 'a small part in a funny show' and then ending up on How I Met Your Mother, Britney Spears is clearly far more deranged than we could have ever known.

However, all our concerns were unfounded. Britney Spears has actually started to film her How I Met Your Mother spot and, as E! Online reports, her co-stars have all been quick to find polite ways to say that she isn't completely awful while denying that it's all a con to get people to watch the show:

[Neil Patrick] Harris—who more or less agreed with "quite impressed" costar Alyson Hannigan that Spears was doing a "good job" in her bit role as a sweet-natured receptionist at a dermatologist's office… said the only thing that concerned him about the pop star's very prominent presence was what the casting coup implied about the show's status. "It wasn't like CBS or How I Met Your Mother is trying to get ratings and said, Who can we star-cast to get attention," Harris said. "We were literally just filming last week and told, 'You're not going to believe who just called and said they wanted to be on the show.'"

It's true – although Britney appearing on How I Met Your Mother just seems like kneejerk opportunistic casting to boost rating of a show that fell into a lull about a millisecond after the start of the first episode, it absolutely isn't the case.

And it's a pure coincidence that, after Britney Spears, the next guest stars on How I Met Your Mother will include Michael Jackson, Phil Spector, the ghost of all 11 orbital Soviet space dogs and Chemical Ali. They all just happened to phone up and ask to be on the show, and who are the How I Met Your Mother producers to turn anyone down?

Well, except for Madonna. They'd turn her down if she asked. Honestly, did you see her on Will & Grace?

Brit Concerns, Impresses Mother Stars - E! Online

It's a saying that the producers of sitcom How I Met Your Mother know only too well. In a desperate attempt to look funnier than it actually is, How I Met Your Mother has signed up the most harrowing, ashen-faced, unquestionably tragic celebrity in the world right now for a cameo in an upcoming episode.

Yeah, it's Britney Spears. How did you guess?

We've long been under the impression that Britney Spears' father Jamie is a wise, wise man. As soon as Britney Spears tipped over from 'endearingly kooky' to 'disturbingly psychotic' Jamie was right there to keep Britney under control and only charged a couple of thousand dollars a week for the privilege. 

But although Jamie Spears is our brand new hero, he might be losing his grip on Britney Spears just a little. She wants to start doing things again, you see. Actual things. In public. And that's a worry. You see, Britney Spears teaching kids to dance is good mainly because it happens behind closed doors and if the worst happens she'll only ruin the lives of 15 or so toddlers. But Britney Spears doesn't want to stop there.

No. Britney Spears is going to make a cameo on How I Met Your Mother, the middling twentysomething relationship-based American sitcom, where she could end up potentially ruining the lives of millions of hapless viewers. The Associated Press reports:

Spears will guest star in a March 24 episode of the cult series, CBS spokeswoman Kelli Raftery told The Associated Press on Tuesday. The pop star will portray a receptionist in a dermatologist's office named Abby who becomes "smitten" with Ted (Josh Radnor), Raftery said. Craig Thomas, the show's creator, told Usmagazine.com that Spears attended a table reading with the cast on Monday, and that her scenes will probably be filmed later this week. He said representatives for Spears approached the CBS about "Mother" because "she was looking for a small part on a funny show."

Dear God, no. By now you've probably formulated your own list of two or three hundred reasons why Britney Spears appearing on How I Met You Mother is the worst idea in history, and chances are that these are your main bulletpoints:

1) Last month Britney Spears was deemed clinically unable to feed or dress herself. That's hardly laugh-out-loud material.

2) Nobody's going to be watching Britney Spears for see how funny she is. They'll be watching to see how haggard and joyless her eyes are. Again, not exactly ha ha stuff.

3) Considering that Britney Spears has such infrequent visitation access to her own children at the moment, an appearance on a show called How I Met Your Mother shows such a staggering lack of self-awareness that we're just pleased there isn't a sitcom called How I'm A Perfectly Normal Person Who Never Smashes Up Cars With Umbrellas.

4) Did you see Britney Spears' cameo on Will & Grace? That was about as funny as coughing up blood, and she wasn't nearly as mental back then. 

Still, though, at least Britney Spears' appearance will be able to clear up the mystery of how the main character met his future childrens' mother. SPOILER ALERT: it was when he sent her all those dildos.
