WOULD YOU EXPOSE YOURSELF TO CHRISTINA APLLEGATE? I WOULD. AND SO WOULD JUSTIN LONG FROM THE NEW FLICK 'GOING THE DISTANCE'

When Justin Long learned he would be doing full-frontal nudity in Going the Distance, he never imagined he'd be doing it in front of his childhood crush, Christina Applegate.

"I was sort of exposing myself to someone I grew up watching. Really weird," the actor, 32, told UsMagazine.com at the film's London premiere Friday. "And while we were shooting! I'm kidding."

The actor admitted that he isn't used to having so much attention on his body.

"There was an element of vanity that came into play that I wasn't really used to with the other roles I have done," he said.


So how did Long prep for the nerve-wracking scene?

"I had a very complicated procedure: nipple enlargement surgery. I did!" he joked. "I had very tiny nipples. They're like freckles."

Kidding aside, Long said he had a blast filming the movie with Drew Barrymore (who he's been dating off-and-on for several years) -- and even began to see her in a new light.

Wyclef Jean vows to help Haiti after presidential bid rejected

My DUDE, Hip-hop star Wyclef Jean urged supporters to respond "peacefully and responsibly" to a Haiti provisional electoral council ruling that he is not eligible to run as a presidential candidate in the Nov. 28 election.

Singer-songwriter Jean, 40, an international celebrity who is popular in his impoverished and earthquake-ravaged homeland, was left off the list of approved candidates published by the council.

Council spokesman Richard Dumel said election officials accepted 19 candidacies and rejected 15 others. Jean's candidacy was turned down because he did not meet the residency requirement of having lived in Haiti for five years before the election.

Jean said in a blog posted at The Huffington Post: "Though I disagree with the ruling, I respectfully accept the committee's final decision, and I urge my supporters to do the same."

At least he tried...

WRAPPED MY TRIP TO CHICAGO WITH A BANG!

I don't believe this HYPE! Do You?

The Brett Favre saga continues, but could be coming to an end.
Sources told FOXSports.com that Favre has told teammates that he will not come back for his 20th season, citing wear and tear on his body. The Star Tribune in Minneapolis reported that Favre told Vikings officials a similar message Monday night.
But the team is still holding out hope that Favre will again change his mind, and considering his history, it's entirely possible. Sources close to the situation have also told FOXSports.com that the team may be prepared to offer Favre more money, in addition to more time, in an effort to get him to reconsider his latest decision.
Favre was under contract for $13 million this season, but only if he plays.
Speaking to reporters after practice Tuesday, Vikings head coach Brad Childress wouldn't confirm Favre's status with the team, saying it was a "fluid situation" and he could very well have a fresh message from the quarterback waiting for him.
"I'm not a big hearsay person," Childress said. "I gotta hear it from the horse's mouth."
Let's play 'wait n see' until we hear from the MAN himself.

Shark Week may have just started on the Discovery Channel, and while it's a visceral thrill to watch on TV, the predators have been getting a little too close for comfort for Halle Berry, who is in South Africa working on her new movie, 'Dark Tide.' The actress has been filming in the same bay where great white sharks were seen breaching the surface while chasing decoy seals. Seal Island, in False Bay, South Africa, is home to many of the sharks that will hit the screens for Shark Week and has been featured in many films. These sharks are known to chase a tasty morsel straight out of the water, so let's hope they find something more appetizing than the Oscar-winning actress. (Good luck with that one, Jaws!) Berry will be spending a lot of time in the water as she films 'Tide,' playing a diving instructor drawn to the rush of hunting for great white sharks.
