Tue, 21 Feb 2012 09:52:04 -0600

Cameron Diaz, who provides the voice for Princess Fiona in Dreamworks' hit D-animated film franchise Shrek, is not particularly keen on playing her character in live theater. While she did attend the opening of Shrek's Broadway musical counterpart recently, she also made it clear that her role as Fiona would remain in the voice-over booth. Asked if the stage role had ever piqued her fancy, Diaz replied, "No. Absolutely not. What they do up there is, to me, impossible. It's wonderful, though. They've done such a great job. They worked really hard, and it really pays off." Suffice it to say that Diaz was thoroughly thrilled by that night's performance, noting the great differences between working for the cartoon and for the live version. "It's hilarious,' she says of the stage musical. 'There are so many laughs.

Brody Jenner, cast member of hit reality show The Hills and half-brother of fellow reality star Kim Kardashian, will get to host his own reality program on MTV. Bromance, much like Paris Hilton's My New BFF, pits a bunch of guys in a frat house against each other for the chance to become Brody's new best bud. The son of Olympian Bruce Jenner and actress Linda Thompson gives his two cents on his experience taping the show: Some of the contestants have shed tears on-camera. "I did this whole sit-down with these guys which we called Broprah,' Jenner divulges. 'I was sitting around and would say, 'OK, now tell me about...' and then all of a sudden it got to be like, 'Whoa!' We're uncovering some deep stuff. These big, grown guys are sitting around crying over being friends with a dude." This isn't to say, of course, that he didn't get near-weepy himself.
