The Hilarious Jonah Hill gets his own animated series




This guy makes tears come out of my eyes whenever I see a movie he is in like he is crazy funny, following amongst the likes of Will Ferrell, Adam Sandler, Chris Farley and many of the other greats. Well now he has this to add to his repertoire Hill penned the script for "Allen Gregory," with the help of other writers a little more than two years ago. The show is about a pretentious 7-year old boy who sees himself as wise and mature beyond his years, intelligent, sophisticated, worldly, artistic and a romantic. The show follows him as he leaves the safety of his father's homeschooling to attend a public elementary school with kids his own age. He has a rivalry with his second grade teacher, a unique relationship with his 68-year old female principal, and a desire to be friends with the school's most popular kid. Hill's co-creators include Andrew Mogul and Jarrad Paul, but Fox's Reilly describes Hill as being involved in all aspects of the show. "He's very hands on, like a well-oiled machine," Reilly told TheWrap.

Hill said he was offered an opportunity a few years ago to provide a voice in an animated pilot for Fox, but he turned that opportunity down. He rationalized that if he did the voice, he might never get the opportunity to create his own animated show. Then fate took over. With the script complete, Hill happened to sit next to Reilly at a Los Angeles Lakers game one night.

Reilly recalls: "We were sitting together at the game about two years ago and he told me he had written a script for an animated show and wondered if I would take a look at it. I read it and it was the real deal. I loved it. We made very few changes to the script and used his title for the show. We started shooting episodes last Fall and have about seven done so far. Hill said that although he wrote the initial script on spec, he always hoped it would land at Fox. Reilly was impressed enough that about three or four months ago he signed Hill to a "first look" deal with the network, and Hill is now working on a live-action sitcom script.Jonah Hill is a lifelong fan of the Fox animated hit "The Simpsons," so imagine how stoked he is that not only has Fox picked up his new animated sitcom "Allen Gregory," but that it will lead out of "The Simpsons" this fall

Urban Insider talks Model Behavior with Mr. Alex Dominguez of RED Models NYC

With it now being officially spring and actually feeling like it, I thought what better way to celebrate than bringing in a little model behavior. Models often showcase the best of what the average person aspires to look like, from the clothes, the height, and even their hair. We chatted with Mr. Alex Dominguez for the proper insight, and here are our results.......

She has it all from the girl next door appeal, to extreme sex appeal. I first took notice of her when I saw the Jamie Foxx ft Drake "Fall For Your Type" video and to be honest I had to take a sceond glance because I really thought that she was JLO.
