Demi Lovato Will Not Star In 'The Avengers'
Disney starlet was rumored to be up for a role in the all-star superhero film.

Demi Lovato still has her 2011 touring plan, but one gig the teen sensation doesn't have on her agenda is a starring role in "The Avengers." Contrary to reports, the 18-year-old singer/actress will not be featured in the film about a team of Marvel superheroes, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
THR reports that sources inside Lovato's and Marvel's camps are "denying across the board" that the "Camp Rock" star is involved in any way in the all-star comic book adaptation, which is tentatively due in 2012. Part of the difficulty in hiring the actress is that the Joss Whedon-directed film will begin shooting in spring 2011 and the starlet is still undergoing her medical treatment for "emotional and physical issues."
Despite the circulating Lovato rumor, Marvel may still be on the lookout for another female actress to join the male-heavy cast. As of now, "The Avengers" superhero lineup includes Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Samuel Jackson (Nick Fury), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Chris Evans (Captain America), Mark Ruffalo (Hulk) and Chris Hemsworth (Thor).
Things have been looking up for the "Sonny With a Chance" star. Not only did the songstress come to an agreement with dancer Alex Welch, whom she allegedly punched before leaving her joint tour with the Jonas Brothers, but the Disney star was also able to spend some time with her family on Christmas Day. She was spotted with her family on the holiday getting food near her treatment facility in Woodridge, Illinois.

For those wondering what the deal is with Britney Spears' next album, her manager, Adam Leber, tweeted an update about the princess of pop's musical endeavors as she works on the follow-up to 2008's Circus.
"Brit is recording a big big BIG new song on Friday with #MaxMartin & @TheDrLuke. I'm pretty sure it's a smash!" he wrote. Leber recently said that the album would sound "progressive" and that ''it'll be a departure from what you've heard" in the past.
Dr. Luke retweeted Leber's message, as well as this update for all the Britney fans out there: "Please continue to wait 4 Britney's new song!!!!" Luke worked with Spears on her "Circus" track for her last album.
As for Martin, he and Spears have a long history of making music together, having worked on "3," "... Baby One More Time" and "If U Seek Amy."
"She's such an icon, I don't want to let anyone down," Dr. Luke recently shared about working with Britney, who is expected to release music sometime in early 2011. "But most importantly, I want to make good music ... I'm excited to be co-executive producing with Max Martin, the person who kind of invented Britney, and to make good music. And she's such an amazing vehicle to getting that music out to a lot of people in every country."
Spears has also hit the studio with producer Danja, who worked on her song "Gimme More." He explained, "I'm definitely gonna do my part and try to make it hard-hitting, up-tempo, high-energy. That's what I think we need and that's what I'm gonna shoot for."

Jeff Bridges Relayed 'Lebowski' Theories To Coen Brothers On 'True Grit' Set
Oscar-winning actor says he'd love to team up with directing duo again.
By Terri Schwartz

Fans might find Jeff Bridges' most-memorable performance to be as The Dude in the Coen brothers' 1998 comedy "The Big Lebowski," and Bridges is looking to impress audiences yet again as Rooster Cogburn in his second Coen brothers flick, "True Grit." Unsurprisingly, Bridges is a fan of Joel and Ethan Coen's directing style, which is what had him returning for more.
When MTV News asked what his favorite Coen films are, Bridges responded with a laugh, "['True Grit'] is the freshest in my mind. Number two would be 'Lebowski.' I'm partial, but two great movies!"
For Bridges, returning to the set of a Coen brothers film was like returning to an old group of friends. On each of their films, the Coens surround themselves with many of the same crewmembers, including cinematographer Roger Deakins and composer Carter Burwell, and Bridges said the sense of community on-set makes the environment "very easy-going."
Bridges and the Coens only made plans for the Oscar-winning actor to star in "Lebowski" and "True Grit," but Bridges said he'd love to team up with the directing duo again.
"I'd like to do whatever. They're a joy to work with, and they really know how to do it," he said.
That comment might have fans crossing their fingers for a "Big Lebowski 2," and Bridges said The Dude still has a special place in both his and the Coens' hearts. With fans still approaching him to talk about "Lebowski," Bridges said he and the Coens talked about the cult classic on the set of "True Grit."
"Everybody's got different things to say about 'The Big Lebowski,' " Bridges explained. "One guy came up to me with a theory. He said I've got to check this out with the brothers. It was very earnest and desperate. He said, 'Donny [Steve Buscemi] is a figment of Walter's [John Goodman] imagination. He doesn't really exist.' It gets you thinking a little bit, doesn't it? So I ran that by the brothers, and they chortled, and that was about it."

Nicki Minaj, Trey Songz, More Share Their New Year's Resolutions
Avril Lavigne wants to 'be healthy' and 'focus hard.'
By Kara Warner

With all the 2010 wrap-up stories and year-end lists dominating these last few days, it's time to start thinking beyond New Year's Eve and into the new year. And you know what that means: New Year's resolutions. The most popular vows generally revolve around health (weight loss, exercise, quitting smoking) and finance (spend less).
However when MTV News caught up with a few of our favorite stars recently to find out what they resolve to do in 2011, their commitments were a bit more unique.
"My New Year's resolution is to stay true to myself," "Bottoms Up" singer Trey Songz revealed. "Regardless of what anybody says, I'll never let anybody else's thoughts dictate that of my own."
"Probably just progress more as an actor," said 12-year-old "Modern Family" scene-stealer Rico Rodriguez.
Avril Lavigne had three broad goals in mind: "Be healthy, focus hard, make sure to see [my] family."
MTV's own "Jersey Shore" standout Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino said his plans involve moving from the small screen to the big one. "[I might be] doing maybe a movie or something," he teased.
Chart-topping pink princess Nicki Minaj offered the most colorful response: "[I'll be] touring around the world. It's looking like the biggest, baddest, I don't know ... I should've had something better to say," she began, and then invented a few words on the spot, for emphasis on just how big 2011 will be for the "Your Love" singer. "[I'm going to be the] biggest, baddest, boldest, booming-est, fearless-ocity-est, Pink Friday-est, girl," she promised.
Which celeb will fulfill their New Year's resolution? Tell us in the comments!
Don't miss "MTV New Year's Bash," starting at 10:30 p.m. ET on New Year's Eve!

In a past interview, Phillippe noted that he?s not concerned about the effect Reese?s love life has on their kids. "If the kids care about mom dad, and if that's consistent and they feel protected that way, they don't they don't really care so much about who the parent is dating. They just don't."
Usher's 'OMG' Gets Celeb Endorsement As Song Of The Year
'It's undeniable,' Travie McCoy says of the track that topped MTV News' Top 25 Songs of 2010.

2010 had some great jams, and all week, MTV News has been counting down some of its best. Everything from Lady Gaga's "Telephone" and Rick Ross' "B.M.F. (Blowin' Money Fast)" to two of Kanye's West's killer My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy tracks, "Power" and "Runaway," made the top 10. But it was Usher's bombastic party jam "OMG" that rose to the top and came in at #1.
So what made that song such a party anthem? "Oh my God! That's exactly what I would say! Oh my God!" Pauly D joked about 2010's top party jam. "Dope, dope track. I love playing it. The crowd goes crazy when I play it. Usher's the man!"
Travie McCoy added: "It's a great song. It's undeniable, you know what I mean?"
"Dancing With the Stars" pro Lacey Schwimmer admitted that "OMG" was the track that got dancers, both professional and amateur, on the dance floor. "You guys got a great dance anthem," she said. "So be prepared for people who do not know how to dance just going to town!"
Producer Alex Da Kid gave props to will.i.am for the song's epic beat. "I love 'OMG.' I think it's definitely something different for Usher," he said. "And it still has all the dance performance elements Usher's known for, but it's something slightly different and done in a will.i.am kind of way, and it's different and that's why it connected to so many different people. It's a great song."
Celebrities also weighed in on their favorite jams of 2010, choosing everything from Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" and Willow Smith's "Whip My Hair" to B.o.B and Hayley Williams' "Airplanes."

'Lord Of The Rings' Star Billy Boyd Marries Ali McKinnon
Actor who played Pippin in trilogy weds Wednesday (December 29).

Love continued to linger in the air Wednesday (December 29) as Billy Boyd, best known as Pippin the hobbit in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Ali McKinnon.
Though he earned international fame and legions of fans for a quest for a different One Ring, The Evening Times reports Boyd kept the wedding very small and intimate.
Boyd and McKinnon met in 2002 at a pantomime (British winter musical comedy theater) she was appearing in. The two have a 4-year-old son, Jack, and have been living together in Glasgow's West End for several years.
The Evening Times reports the two were married at Oran Mor, just around the corner from their home. The venue sounds like something straight out of Middle Earth, but it's actually a converted church that was turned into a cultural center including a couple of restaurants and bars, a nightclub and, of course, a beautiful private-events space.
Oran Mor wedding coordinator Louise Turner said she'd met with the couple a few times and "they have been lovely to deal with." She said only 30 friends and family members attended the ceremony, and the reception was planned for about 160. "It's not a massive bash, and it will be quite intimate," Turner said.
The "Rings" cast has stayed close since the premiere of "Return of the King" in 2003, and the U.K.'s Daily Mail posted a picture of Elijah Wood and Dominic Monaghan flanking the happy groom at the ceremony.
In addition to his role in the three "Lord of the Rings" films, Boyd won acclaim for his roles in "The Stone of Destiny," "The Flying Scotsman" and "On a Clear Day." He was named Britain's most eligible bachelor, placing ahead of Prince William, who got engaged this year.
Send your well-wishes to the couple in the comments section below!

'Twilight Saga' Star Jackson Rathbone Launching Record Label
Rathbone's label may release the upcoming album from his own band, 100 Monkeys, in addition to other artists' music.

Because filming a blockbuster film, working on a new album and going on tour apparently aren't keeping him busy enough, Jackson Rathbone has decided to set up his own record label, too. In an interview with Zooey magazine, Rathbone revealed that he'll soon be known for the artists he helps develop, as well as for his acting and his own music.
The multitasking star best known for portraying of Jasper Hale in "The Twilight Saga" is currently filming "Breaking Dawn" in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and also is working on finishing his next album with his rock group, 100 Monkeys. His fellow bandmates went with him to the movie set so that they could complete the album and kick off a 10-day tour starting after Christmas. 100 Monkeys member Jerad Anderson confirmed to MTV News that Rathbone would indeed be starting a record label, through which he'll release material by other artists.
"We might be putting the [100 Monkeys] record out on this label," Anderson reported. "We haven't collectively decided as a band yet."
The group also scored "Girlfriend," an indie flick featuring Rathbone and Anderson that made its premiere in September at the Toronto International Film Festival. They haven't received official confirmation whether the movie will play at the 2011 South by Southwest in Austin, Texas, but considering 100 Monkeys will be performing during that festival, Anderson said, "It's very likely." He added, "The movie has momentum coming from a successful debut [in] Toronto. "
When the band embarks on their tour after the holiday, MTV cameras will be on the bus documenting the behind the scenes of 100 Monkeys' daily adventures. "Should be interesting..." Anderson said. MTV has already gotten an inside look into the life of the group thanks to some Web diaries that Rathbone recorded. Rathbone also has been hard at work on the set of McG's new Web series, "Aim High."
And, of course, filming continues on "Breaking Dawn," as the final two installments of "The Twilight Saga" inch closer to completion. The first official picture from the film hit the Internet in November, and some paparazzi photos have been released of and the Volturi in costume.

They may not be the biggest blockbusters of the year, but ?Another Year,? ?Biutiful,? and ?Blue Valentine? are all set to make a splash today (December 29).
All three films are awards contenders for the Oscars, and will additionally have plenty of presence in the indie film community.
Furthermore, the trio of artsy flicks further serves to confirm the upturn in the independent movie market, following the lead of ?Somewhere,? ?Black Swan,? and ?The Fighter.?
While it won?t necessarily be easy to find ?Another Year,? ?Biutiful,? or ?Blue Valentine? in some cities across the country, New York and Los Angeles seem to be all set.

'Little Fockers' Director On Sequel
'It's funny because the end has kind of a setup for a sequel,' Paul Weitz says.

As the "Fockers" franchise has been wont to do throughout its 10-year run, the third installment in the highly successful franchise, "Little Fockers," brought in major box-office dollars once again during its opening weekend. This more than proves that it doesn't matter that audiences had to wait six years between "Meet the Fockers" and the latest film: They like to see Robert DeNiro get silly with Ben Stiller. And Dustin Hoffman and Barbra Streisand, for that matter.
Given the success of "Little Fockers," the next question on inquiring minds is, "When are they shooting a sequel?" When we caught up with director Paul Weitz recently during the press tour for "Fockers," we asked him what talk he'd heard about a potential fourth film.
"There's been none with me," Weitz said, indicating that this directorial romp with the "Fockers" will be his one and only. "I would be the first in line to buy a ticket [to the fourth film]," he said.
But even though it sounds like Weitz won't be involved in moving the Fockers forward, he had a pretty good idea of why people think there might be one planned.
"It's funny because the end has kind of a setup for a sequel [minor spoiler alert ahead!], where they say 'We're buying the house two doors down' " Weitz said. "Which was really a last-second thought by [screenwriter] John Hamburg. It wasn't sort of a calculated 'Alright, what's the sequel going to be,' " he explained. "But it does seem like a good setup for a sequel!"

Beyoncé in her ad for Heat
Photo: Coty UK
Beyoncé's steamy new ad for her perfume, Heat, recently gathered some heat of its own from the U.K.'s Advertising Standards Authority — which banned the commercial from the country's daytime TV rotation because of its sexy imagery. Now the company that makes Heat is speaking out about the sanction brought against the ad, which features the singer in a skin-tight, hot-red satin minidress, touching herself and showing some skin.
In a statement from perfume maker Coty that was posted on AceShowbiz.com, the company notes that it doesn't think there's anything too explicit about the TV spot, maintaining that it is "intended to reflect the singer Beyoncé's personal 'sexy chic' style." And while Beyoncé's cleavage is exposed at certain parts of the commercial, Coty added that it's not "overtly graphic or explicitly sexual and at no point was Beyoncé naked."
The company continued, "It was aimed at a vast selection of music programs to target a young adult audience. It would therefore be consistent with the expectations of viewers of those sorts of programs."
In a statement posted on its website, the advertising watchdog said that it has received several complaints about the Jake Nava-directed spot, which initially was aired throughout the day during family programming and now only will be shown after 7:30 p.m. The organization said, "We considered that Beyoncé's body movements and the camera's prolonged focus on shots of her dress slipping away to partially expose her breasts created a sexually provocative ad that was unsuitable to be seen by young children."

Michael Jackson Producers Defend Posthumous Michael Album
'Michael mentored me so much to where I kind of knew how to complete his sentences,' Theron 'Neff-U' Feemster tells MTV News of picking up where MJ left off.

Michael Jackson's first posthumous album, Michael, has been met with mixed emotions by fans of the King of Pop. Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am lashed out at MJ's estate for commissioning the album, while Akon, a contributor on the project, hailed the effort.
Some of the songwriters and producers behind Michael are simply asking people to give it a chance before making a decision.
"They're gonna love the music, because it speaks for itself," Eddie Cascio, who is credited as a songwriter on "Breaking News," told MTV News. "Michael sounds great. The songs are great. The production sounds great. Teddy Riley did a phenomenal job finishing off the songs. The quality and production are incredible."
Theron "Neff-U" Feemster agreed. The producer had a hand in three of the album's 10 tracks, including "Hollywood Tonight" and standouts "(I Like) The Way You Love Me" and "Best of Joy." Feemster worked with Jackson in the past, as did the majority of the contributors to Michael, which he thinks made the project uniquely authentic despite MJ having little say in the way his tracks were completed.
"It wasn't difficult," Feemster told MTV News of picking up the rough material. "It was like coloring. It was coloring a frame that was already structured. Michael mentored me so much to where I kind of knew how to complete his sentences. I understood the expectations that he wanted. He wanted to be beyond great. He wanted to give the world a gift, something they'd never heard or seen before. So even after his passing, it was great to have a great team of people to work with who also had experience working with Michael. It made it that much easier. Bringing very creative people together and people who understood his integrity and what he wanted as well, it was great."

Paris Hilton's Flight Evacuated After Knife Was Found on Board
This Tuesday marked yet another travel debacle for Paris Hilton, as she had to be evacuated from her plane headed to Hawaii after a large knife was found on board the Delta flight. That's not a good way to start the holidays!
According to Hilton's Twitter page, a passenger found a "big knife" in a seat pocket before the plane took off from Los Angeles. Calling the incident "scary," Hilton seemed to get over the incident fairly quickly. "They just finished the security sweep of the plane. About to board again," she wrote. "So strange a knife got on board. Can't wait to get to Maui."
A law enforcement source told TMZ.com that the weapon found on the starlet's plane was actually a "box-cutting knife" that belonged to the airline crew.
Would you be willing to get back on a plane after a weapon was found on board? Chime in below!

Liev Schrieber and Naomi Watts: Holiday in Bondi Beach
Enjoying some time down under, Live Schreiber and Naomi Watts were spotted doing their own thing on Bondi Beach in Australia yesterday (December 23).
The ?Manchurian Candidate? actor looked to be having a run-in with Johnny Law as he received a ticket from a police officer while riding his red motor scooter.
Meanwhile, Ms. Watts joined her parents for some holiday retail therapy at a nearby mall, looking cute and casual in a blue and white printed dress.
Earlier this week, Liev and Naomi took their sons Sasha and Sam out to Bronte Beach for some quality family time.

After a string of festival appearances, Lauryn Hill has announced that she'll embark on an intimate North American tour starting next week. The 17-date outing, which begins at New York City's Highline Ballroom on Monday, will venture throughout the East Coast and Canada before wrapping up in New Jersey in February.
In a statement, Hill said she "may never play venues of this size again." According to a press release, the rapper/singer will be accompanied by a live band and will perform a set list of the many hits from her celebrated 1998 solo album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.
For those fans who are hoping to hear something new from Hill, they can expect to see some of her biggest hits "reworked yet faithful to the rigor, soulfulness and power of the original music." Initial news of the reclusive singer hitting the road for a series of East Coast shows broke a few weeks ago.
When MTV News caught up with the iconic artist in August, she kept mum on when the hungry public could expect a new album, saying, "We're getting closer. That's all I can say."
While the singer takes her time with new music, she revealed that she enjoys the versatility of today's artists. "I have respect for what people do," Hill said. "I also like to hear the eclectics, I like to hear the mixture. There's a lot of different creative energies out there right now. I respect the different sounds that I'm hearing. It's been such a long time since I've gotten my voice and my ideas [out]. In terms of collaborations, that's not even something I've been thinking about per se. I'm happy that people are still making music. That we still have a platform with which to make music. It's gonna be interesting to see what the future holds."
Lauryn Hill's tour dates, according to a press release:
» 12/27 - New York, NY @ Highline Ballroom
» 12/28 - Brooklyn, NY @ Music Hall of Williamsburg
» 1/1 - New York, NY @ Bowery Ballroom
» 1/3 - New York, NY @ The Blue Note
» 1/4 - New York, NY @ The Blue Note
» 1/5 - New York, NY @ The Blue Note
» 1/8 - Charlotte, NC @ Amos' Southend
» 1/9 - Asheville, NC @ The Orange Peel
» 1/12 - Charleston, SC @ The Music Farm
» 1/14 - Atlanta, GA @ Centerstage
» 1/16 - St. Louis, Mo @ The Pageant

Topher Grace On The Complicated Life Of 'Take Me Home Tonight'
The '80s-set flick's depiction of cocaine use was partly responsible for long release-date delay.

The inner workings of Hollywood are a perpetual mystery, particularly when film scheduling is involved. The normal filmmaking, script-to-screen process is, in a nutshell, basic: Script is written, produced, filmed, edited, promoted — and voila! It hits theaters. But as many beleaguered writers/producers/directors/actors know, things don't always go so smoothly.
Take, for example, the comedy "Take Me Home Tonight" (formerly titled "Kids in America"), which stars Topher Grace (who's also executive producer), Ana Faris, Dan Fogler, Teresa Palmer and Michelle Trachtenberg. Not exactly an indie, no-name cast, and yet the film completed principal photography in late 2006/ early 2007 and is just now getting released.
When MTV News caught up with Grace recently, we asked him to take us through the producing process that finally led to its release date.
"[The film came from] this idea that every generation had a film that looked about 20 years back," Grace said, adding the fact that no one had captured the spirit of the '80s in film without making fun of the decade. "We wanted to do something that felt like it was literally made in the '80s. So, we brought this to a different studio, and they were very supportive when they made the film, so we're very grateful for that."
What slowed down the process from there, Grace explained, was a hesitation from the studio with several scenes that involve cocaine use. "It tested really well," he said. "It's an audience film. It's not drama, but there was a real hesitation because there is so much cocaine in it, and our feeling at the time was, 'You can't do a movie about Prohibition without alcohol, and you really can't do a movie about partying in the '80s, at the age these kids are, without showing cocaine use."
Lucky for Grace and his producing partner Gordon Kaywin, the film received new life at Imagine Entertainment, via veteran producers Ron Howard and Brian Grazer.
"We had fun producing, but those guys are the real deal," Grace said of Howard and Grazer. "We learned a lot from them, and they're probably the greatest producers of our time. So, they encouraged us to not change the cut, which I thought was a really cool move."
Grace also credited Ryan Kavanaugh, the CEO of Relativity Media (the studio that is now releasing the film), with understanding and helping execute their original idea.
"He understood that you can't make a movie like 'Dazed and Confused' if it doesn't have pot in it," Grace said. "You just can't; it doesn't ring true. It's not that real thing we talk about, and he and his team embraced it, and that's the film we got to see."
The former "That '70s Show" star said he's thrilled with the final result.
"We're so happy with the film. It's creatively exactly what we wanted, and it's exactly the opposite of the normal situation where stuff gets cut," he said. "[For us] it was the opposite: We got to put stuff back in."

Justin Bieber?s Christmas Cheer-Up
He?s been having a banner year in 2010 and Justin Bieber is helping some of his awesome fans have a fabulous Christmas.
The ?Baby? singer played the last concert of his tour in Atlanta last night (December 23) and collected a busload of toys for residents of the Children?s Heathcare of Atlanta as part of the Stuff Bieber?s Bus campaign.
Bert Weiss, a deejay at the local Q100 radio station told press, "I've been talking about it on the air for three or four weeks and I've got a trickle of a tweet and an email. Justin tweeted about it yesterday and all of a sudden there were a surge of targets, I got tweets and emails. So the bus is filling up really, really quickly. Every single child at a children's hospital will have a present now because of Justin Bieber."
Justin added, "I got contacted by their radio station and Bert himself, and he asked us if we wanted to be involved ... and it was just something I thought would be really cool."

Matt Damon Gets Tongue-Tied By 'True Grit,' Bieber Fever
The Oscar-winning actor gamely shows off his character's interesting manner of speech for MTV News.

Matt Damon. Actor, writer, Oscar winner. Generally perceived in and around Hollywood to be a really nice guy. As such, when MTV News caught up with Damon as he promoted "True Grit," we hoped he would respond positively to our request for him to conduct the interview either talking in the voice of his "Grit" character, Texas Ranger LaBoeuf, or using his dead-on Matthew McConaughey impression.
"I would do [LaBoeuf's accent] if anyone had a ponytail [holder]," he said, and then asked the behind-the-scenes ladies in the room if he could borrow one. Amazingly enough, someone did have one at the time and quickly handed it to Damon, who tied it around his tongue.
Not to spoil the film, but in "True Grit," Damon's character suffers a particular misfortune along the way that leads to him losing part of his tongue, adding a lisp to his Texas twang.
"Ask me anything you like," he said with a distinct lisp, after affixing the band to his tongue.
Then it was our turn to try to maintain a straight face long enough to ask Damon why he wanted to be in this particular film.
"Well, I'd been looking to work with [directors] Joel and Ethan [Cohen] for a long time," he said, trying not to laugh himself. Film-related questions aside for a moment, we had to ask him, does that hurt?
"Yeah," Damon admitted, at which point we told him he should take off the band. "No, no, I'm going to do the whole interview like this," he insisted.
We then brought up "Grit" star Hailee Steinfeld, who's been getting rave reviews and plenty of awards consideration for her breakthrough performance, and asked what it felt like to be out-witted by a young girl.
"I have four girls in my house, I get out-witted by them every day," Damon quipped — still talking with the band.
Has his home been affected by Bieber fever yet?
"No," Damon said. "We've mercifully avoided Bieber fever."
There's still time: His daughters are ages 11, 4, 2 and 3 months.
Check out everything we've got on "True Grit."
