Alex Pettyfer, star of Beastly and I Am Number Four, was poised to become Hollywood's next big thing. Between a British accent and stunning good looks, it seemed he could not do wrong.
Appearances can be deceiving.
In a new interview with VMAN magazine, 21-year-old Pettyfer goes no-holds-barred, and insults women and the entertainment industry.
First, he tells the mag that he has a tattoo above his crotch that reads "Thank you." His explanation? "In case I forget to say it," he said while winking.
We wonder how Pettyfer's ex, Glee's Dianna Agron, felt about that.
Pettyfer also showed disrespect for the city and industry that are making him famous. He called Los Angeles a "s***hole."
"Geographically it's fantastic, but socially it's disgusting. I wish they'd run all the c***s out."
Los Angeles is the socially disgusting one?
Pettyfer even had the nerve to complain about his success.
"Being an actor is like being in prison. You go, you serve your time, you try and replicate Johnny Depp's career and then you move to Paris."
Being an actor is like being in prison? Really? Yeah, we often confuse the red carpet with cell bars and Armani tuxes with orange jumpsuits.
This new interview adds to a growing pile of rumors about the star. We hear from our sources that he was a nightmare to work with on Beastly.
Also, see what very reputable publication found after doing some digging on the Brit, and what major movie role he just lost out on after the jump.

Katie Holmes was spotted leaving the studio today, and though the actress wouldn't comment on Star Magazine issuing an apology for printing a cover story suggesting she was a drug addict, she certainly seemed relieved to be done with the whole ordeal!
After the magazine featured a tired-looking Holmes on their January 31 cover with the headline "Katie Drug Shocker," she filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit against the tabloid, claiming their headline was "untrue, unethical and unlawful."
Inside the pages of their latest issue, Star writes, "In a recent issue of Star, we published headlines about Katie Holmes that oculd be read to suggest that she was addicted to drugs. Star did not intend to suggest that Ms. Holmes was a drug addict or was undergoing treatment for a drug addiction. Star apologizes to Ms. Holmes for any misperception and will be making a substantial donation to charity on Ms. Holmes' behalf for any harm that we may have caused." Katie released her own statement today, saying, “I’m pleased that this lawsuit could be resolved amicably and accept American Media’s apology.â€Â

The slow motion takes! The awkward eye contact with the camera! The black background straight from a mall photo shop!
There's all that and more in this epic video from Teen Mom 2's Jo Rivera, also known, apparently, as N.I.C.K.B. (We welcome suggestions on what that stands for.)
Rivera wants to start a rap career, and he has big aspirations. One of the lyrics promises to buy the girl in the video (who we're guessing will regret this) diamonds.
Maybe Jo should focus more on diapers.
Many of the Teen Mom girls are trying to foray their newfound stardom into legitimate careers; most recently, Maci Bookout was reportedly pushing to get on Dancing With the Stars. Still, none have really found success -- unless you call court cases careers.
But no teen daddy has yet stepped up to harness his so-called celebrity.
See more excerpts from Rivera's lyrics after the jump.

Interview
Chris Hemsworth is hanging tough for Interview magazine's May issue.
The 27-year-old Thor stud is opening up about his love for the superhero's heavy hammer. He tells the mag:
“It is a pretty impressive piece of equipment. It was quite heavy, so that helped with the stunts. If it was too light, you would swing it around like a toothpick and it wouldn’t look impressive. When there is some weight to it and you have to physically use your shoulder and back, it gives you a sense of power. I got very comfortable holding it. When I did the earthbound scenes without it, I felt naked.â€Â
Nice visual! Read what Chris says attracted Natalie Portman to her role in Thor ... after the jump.

Beyonce has released a new video for her song "Move Your Body" ... a catchy track in support of Michelle Obama's Let's Move campaign to fight childhood obesity.
Although the track sounds new, it's actually a re-do of her hit song "Get Me Bodied." Love the white knee high socks, B!
Jay-Z's wifey is busting a move with children in the middle of the school cafeteria. Beyonce's moves are definitely motivating us to get up and dance!
See what Beyonce said about creating this video to promote healthy eating ... after the jump.
