If you’ve been watching the sixth and final season of ABC’s sci-fi series “LOST,” you know that actor Josh Holloway’s James “Sawyer” Ford character is heading towards the dark side. The loss of his could-have-been wife Juliette has filled the southern conman with rage and hate, making him vulnerable to the seductive forces of Evil Locke.

Yes, I’m reveling in the Star Wars parallels! I have always thought of Sawyer as the island’s Han Solo, but wrong I was (unless, of course, he’s running a long con on Evil Locke).

Holloway, who now-more-than-ever deserves an Emmy win, spoke to People magazine’s Shawna Malcom about Sawyer’s fall and his life-after-“LOST” plans. The following are some highlights:

How’s poor Sawyer holding up when we see him again in Tuesday’s episode?
He’s still racked with grief and full of guilt for allowing (Juliet’s death) to happen.

But Juliet’s the one who let go of Sawyer’s grip and detonated the bomb!
That doesn’t erase the shame and guilt of not being able to hold on. At the core, it’s a man’s responsibility to protect, no matter what. Going forward, Sawyer’s all anger. He hooks up with Locke because he just doesn’t care to live anymore. He’s already dead inside.

Are things officially over then between Sawyer and Kate?
Any feelings he allows for Kate are a betrayal to Juliet and their love. As the character, I don’t want anything to do with it. It’s shameful to him. Yet there’s an inevitable attraction. I want the writers to honor what Sawyer and Kate have built together, but I don’t know what that looks like.

Is it fun to get to play two versions of Sawyer this season — one on the island and one in the flash-sideways?
With all the things I’ve been through with this character already, it’s interesting. I thought I’d just figured out Sawyer and now it’s like, “Not so fast!” But life is that way — we think we learn lessons but then they come back for another round.

How are you feeling about the show winding down?
I cannot believe it, even though we’ve had quite awhile to digest it. It’s bittersweet. When every episode is done, it’s like, “Shoot, one more in the can.” It’s been an incredible ride for me as an actor. They’ve really taken Sawyer on a rollercoaster, and that’s been a pleasure to explore.

How would you like to see that rollercoaster end?
I would like to see Sawyer grow towards the light. He’s experienced that with Kate and then Juliet — that made him want to live again and live differently — but then it was all ripped away. So my hope for him is that he doesn’t wallow in the darkness.

Co-stars Matthew Fox and Evangeline Lilly have both said that they’re unlikely to do TV again after Lost ends. What are your plans?

I have a huge desire to do other things — TV, movies—and I feel like I’m just getting started. It’s gonna be a whole new adventure. I’ll always keep roots in Hawaii but inevitably, I must go to L.A. — that’s where the heart of the business is. It’ll be back to the audition room, and I’m game. I don’t want straight offers — I want to read for things. I want to prove to myself and to that town that I can go forward. I don’t want anything given to me.

“LOST” airs on Tuesdays at 9 p.m.

Right on the heels of Twilight Saga star Robert Pattinson’s “I hate vaginas” revelation in Details magazine, Summit Entertainment has released a series of photos showcasing Pattinson’s Edward Cullen character sucking face with Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan.

The images are from Eclipse, the third chapter in the Twilight series, and feature Pattinson pretending to like girls. The Twilight Saga: Eclipse will be in theaters on June 30, 2010.

I’ve never been much of a sports fan, but I do like cheerleaders … and dinosaurs. So imagine my delight when I came across the following clip of the Toronto Raptors’ mascot devouring a tasty little blonde cheerleader.

Gwyneth Paltrow is the latest high-profile actor to join the all-star cast of Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh’s upcoming viral outbreak thriller Contagion. Joining Paltrow on the marquee are Kate Winslet, Marion Cotillard, Jude Law, and Soderbergh go-to-guy Matt Damon.

Contagion will center on the outbreak of a deadly virus and the global aftermath that ensues. The film’s narrative will reportedly share a similar structure to Soderbergh’s Traffic, presenting various character story arcs that will eventually cross. Scott Z. Burns (The Bourne Ultimatum) is penning the script.

Soderbergh claims Contagion was inspired by the swine flu epidemic … yeah, that, or the various STDs floating around his penis every time he put it inside his Girlfriend Experience star Sasha Grey.

Gorgeous British actress/glamor model Gemma Atkinson is finally dipping her pretty pedicured toes (what? I notice these things) into the horror pool with a lead role in Eyeline Entertainment’s upcoming werewolf frightener 13HRS.

According to director Jonathan Glendening (S.N.U.B!), the film showcases Atkinson’s and her jaw-dropping 34E chest in traditional horror fashion.

He tells the Daily Star Sunday:

It’s a horror movie staple to have an incredibly sexy woman pursued by a terrifying beast. Gemma fulfils this role more than adequately. She’s wearing a mini-skirt, blue blouse and stilettos during the whole movie because it’s set over one night. She’s very sexy – I’m a big fan. She surprised me, to be honest – she was superb. This could be the start of a stellar acting career.

Atkinson, who starred on the British teen-soap Hollyoaks and its two spinoffs, is eager to leave modeling behind to focus on a career in film. The 25-year-old stunner has been taking drama and voice classes to better prepare for the endeavor.

She tells The Argus:

I did the modelling for about three years, but acting is what I really want to do. It was really scary at first because modelling was what I’d become known for. It kind of took over the Hollyoaks role, so I’ve been really lucky to get back to Gemma Atkinson, actress.

Atkinson goes on to describe her experience in 13HRS as hard work and is thrilled to learn that the film will finally make its way into theaters later this year (the movie wrapped a year ago).

The film’s official synopsis reads:

A full moon hangs in the night sky, and lightning streaks across dark storm clouds. Sarah Tyler (Calthorpe) returns to her troubled family home in the isolated countryside for a much put-off visit. As the storm rages on, Sarah, her family, and friends shore up for the night, cut off from the outside world. But something comes out of the driving rain and darkness. Something that holds a dark secret so devastating that, in one night, it could wipe out the entire family.

Trapped, Sarah and her brothers and friends must use their heads as well as their physical strength to survive not only the thing that is hunting them down one by one – but their own entrapment as the besieged group turns in on itself. Can they survive the horror stalking them? Or is their enemy already amongst them, and has it always been? Can they survive for 13 hours?

13HRS is slated for release this summer. Co-stars include hottie Isabella Calthorpe, Simon MacCorkindale (“Poltergeist: The Legacy”), John Lynch (Black Death), Sue Scadding (Witchcraft X: Mistress of the Craft), and Tom Felton of Harry Potter fame.

OK, I think that’s enough words to justify the following photos of Atkinson in lingerie:

Krokus is back!

I was in junior high when I first listened to Krokus’ Headhunter and, to this day, it remains on one of my go-to discs when I’m barreling down the freeway at 135 miles an hour, downing a bottle of Level One vodka and texting my friends.

The Swiss metal band’s original ’80s lineup has reunited for their upcoming brand new CD Hoodoo, available on Feb. 26.

A video for its first single “Hoodoo Woman” has been released and it’s surprisingly good. The video features all the necessary ingredients for a classic metal video: hot evil chick, hot abducted chick, skulls, and mullets.

The CW announced today early renewals for its popular horror-themed television shows “The Vampire Diaries” and “Supernatural.” Both series perform phenomenally well with horny women ages 18-to-34, giving the network its highest ratings.

(UPDATE: Want to meet the cast of “The Vampire Diaries” at Paleyfest 2010? Go here for more info)

The following is the CW’s official press release:

The series receiving early renewals include this season’s breakout hit THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, The CW’s most-watched show (4.6 million viewers) and the network’s number one show among adults 18-34 (2.5/8).

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES premiere generated the largest audience in network history for a series debut (5.7 million total viewers). THE VAMPIRE DIARIES has improved The CW’s performance Thursday at 8:00 p.m. by 114% among women 18-34 this season.

The network also renewed fan favorite SUPERNATURAL, which will enter its sixth season next year. SUPERNATURAL has one of the most loyal audiences of any show on television and does heroic work in a perennially tough time period.  It has improved over last season among women and adults 18-34 (29% and 8%, respectively) this season, a remarkable accomplishment for a fifth-year show.

“The Vampire Diaries” stars Nina Dobrev, Paul Wesley, and Ian Somerhalder, known to those of us without vaginas as Boone on ABC’s “LOST.” Created by Kevin Williamson, producer of “Dawson’s Creek” and the scribe behind the innovative Scream films, “Diaries” follows a high school girl’s complicated love triangle with two vampire suitors … who happen to be brothers.

“The Vampire Diaries” and “Supernatural” both picked up People’s Choice awards this year for Favorite New TV Drama and Favorite Sci-Fi/Fantasy Show, respectively.

Alessandra Torresani is the 22-year-old star of the Syfy network’s new “Battlestar Galactica” spinoff series “Caprica.” She’s also kind of a nut. But that’s to be expected when your parents pimp you out as a child-stripper-whore to close business deals with Asian clients.

(See Alessandra dance in sexy video here)

In an interview with Wired, she reveals:

I made my mom buy me lingerie when I was 5 years old. I was a sicko. My mother must have been mortified.

When I was 6, my dad had this huge business meeting, millionaire Asian businessmen came over to our house. I dressed up in this sexy bra, this big fur hat, the red lips, the fake eye lashes. I had my mom go, “Would you please join us in the living room?” and there I was laying on top of the baby grand piano and my 6-year-old neighbor Thomas started playing “Hello Dolly” and I started singing and lifting my legs, doing these kicks.

Then I’d go around and sit on the men’s laps. Let me tell you, my dad closed every deal because of that — these men were fascinated that this little girl came out of this guy and this woman. It was the funniest thing.

Yes, funny in a creepy, most likely illegal, definitely immoral, way.

Torresani’s parents make actress Thora Birch’s folks look like the damn Cleavers. What’s the deal with these Hollywood families? Oh, well, I think it was Michael Jackson who once said, “If they’re old enough to crawl, they’re already in the right position.”

Man, this chick just looks crazy.

Torresani plays Zoe Graystone, the 16-year-old daughter of Cylon creator Daniel Graystone, on the program, airing Friday nights on SyFy.

Paris Hilton (House of Wax, Repo! The Genetic Opera) was in Rio de Janeiro over the weekend to partake in the city’s Carnaval festivities and to promote Devassa beer. Now, I don’t know what they put in that Brazilian brew, but Hilton is looking quite busty in the photos that have surfaced.

Here’s hoping she eats a few more burritos to plump up her backside too.
