Well, they've been working on it for quite some time, but it looks like they might finally be moving forward with it!
On Wednesday Matt Damon and pal Ben Affleck were snapped leaving a business meeting in Santa Monica, and this is the first look we've gotten at Matt's bald head, which is for his role in
Elysium.
Though Ben is still wrapping up promotional duties for
Argo, he seems to be forging ahead with several new projects, including this one, where Damon will play the infamous Boston gangster Whitey Bulger. Damon will portray Bulger through several phases of his life, including his rise and local Robin Hood-style infamy, the 19 murders for which he is allegedly responsible, along with racketeering, acting as an FBI informant and his years on the run.
Ben will direct the flick, but we won't be seeing it on the big screen for another year, or perhaps even longer. "My guess is honestly, [it'll be] the movie after next. I'll probably find something that's in better shape to do next until we got that one ready, and then we'll go ahead and fire that one up," he told
IndieWire earlier this month. He sure is busy!

A bootylicious Kim Kardashian was snapped getting Subway in Miami yesterday, and after that the starlet shot her reality show and did a little bit of shopping before calling it a day.
No word on whether she got the six inch or the foot long, but she did tweet a pic of her abs yesterday, so whatever diet/exercise plan she's been doing is working!
Kim posted the shot below and wrote, "I just wanna chill in my sweats all day!"
But doesn't Kanye get jealous when she posts sexy shots like that?

X17online.com can report EXCLUSIVELY that P. Diddy was involved in a dramatic car accident outside the Beverly Hills hotel just less than two hours ago.
The rap mogul appeared to be arriving to the luxury hotel, when his chauffeured Cadillac Escalade was involved in a smash up with a Lexus RX at the Sunset entrance to the property.
Hotel employees quickly ran to assist Diddy, his driver and a second passenger, as well as those in the Lexus. Diddy and the second passenger were seen sprawled on the lawn in front of the hotel before being escorted in through the lobby.
An ambulance and police arrived shortly. It is unclear whether Diddy or anyone else sustained any serious injuries or who was at fault.

The other day daddy Ben Affleck returned home from promoting
Argo in Europe, but where is he now? We wouldn't at all be surprised if

Isn't she lovely?
After appearing on
The View to promote her new album,
Red, Taylor Swift changed out of her black outfit, slipped into something a little more colorful, and stopped by Scholastic’s New York headquarters to take part in a special literacy event for the company’s “Read Every Day†campaign.
After wrapping up promotional duties for
Red, we'll see Taylor, along with Nicki Minaj and Linkin Park onstage at the American Music Awards on Sunday, November 18. Geez ... when is she going to get a break?!
In other T. Swifty news, the 22-year-old country cutie recently revealed that she fears she'll drunk dial her famous friends! With stars like Gwyneth Paltrow in her phone book, Swift told
The Sun, "I have a strict rule that I don't have my phone on me when I drink!"
However, Taylor, whose other BFFs include Selena Gomez and Emma Stone, says she prefers not to focus on business when she hangs with her pals. "I have friends from all fields -- people who are in school, actresses and singers," she added. "It's surprising how we don't talk shop. You'd think we'd get together and discuss the stresses of fame but we actually just talk about boys like all the other girls. We don't run through each other's scripts or compare set lists."

Aww, if that's not a loving look, we don't know what is!
Last night Rumer Willis and her boyfriend Jayson Blair went out in Hollywood, and the lovebirds couldn't stop giggling when we snapped their picture.
Rumer and Demi Moore have reportedly started working on their relationship again, and apparently Jayson was the one who helped urge the actress to reach out to her mom. Rumer called Demi in late September, and a source tells
Star Magazine, "Jayson has been telling Rumer for ages that she needed to forgive her mom and move on. She finally gave in and made the call. He knew that deep down Rumer really missed her mother and wasn't going to be happy until they made up."
A source added that the two met in person shortly after that, but things are still strained between them. So what caused the rift in the first place? Apparently the close relationship between Rumer and Ashton Kutcher ticked Demi off big time. Following Ashton's alleged affair with Sara Leal in 2011, Demi filed for divorce and had a now infamous meltdown, so we don't blame her for being angry at Rumer and Ashton for
flaunting their friendship!

Um, what?!
Smokey Robinson revealed that he recorded a duet with James Franco and his band
Daddy. So random!
During an interview with the
New York Post at Monday's Angel Ball in NYC, the motown legend revealed his unlikely collaboration with the actor. After a chance encounter on a plane, the Oscar nominee asked Robinson to make a song with him, to which he happily agreed. "He asked me to do it, and so I did it. It's as simple as that. There's no deep dark secret," he explained.
The song, called "Crime," has yet to be released.
The
Pineapple Express star is known for taking on quirky projects, and we're sure this will be no different!
We can't wait to hear the tunes!

Sam Lutfi took the stand this morning in his defamation case against X Factor judge Britney Spears and her family and made claims that Brit's dad, Jamie, threatened his life back in 2007.
Spears' former manager says he has a text from Jamie Spears that reads, "If and when I met u one thing is going to happen I am going to jail and u r going to the hospital."
Lutfi went on to tell the judge that Jamie attacked him at Britney's house and punched him in the solar plexus.
In 2008, Lutfi had told X17online about these threats. We caught up with Jamie Spears that year and asked him about Lutfi's claims. Check out our archive video.
