Emma Roberts Seduced By Coach James Franco In <i>Palo Alto</i> Trailer

Yeah, yet another Coppola is throwing her hat into the directing ring — Gia, the 26-year-old niece of Sofia and granddaughter of Francis Ford, has debuted as a director with the trailer for Palo Alto starring Emma Roberts and James Franco. The movie, based on a short story collection Franco released a few years back in during his Fiction MFA phase, follows Roberts as a talented soccer player who's seduced by the team's coach, played by ol' Twinkle-Eyes Franco himself.

The reality is that most adolescent student-teacher relationships can get prettttty dark. In fact, I think it's fairly common to find one Cool Young Teacher Who Curses And Stuff at every high school who develops borderline-inappropriate relationships with some of the female students.

Unfortunately, the one at mine didn't look like James Franco (he basically looked like a short, more orange version of Pornstache from Orange is The New Black, sans stache), but it didn't matter, since I was too busy crushing on boys who did whippets while standing around the Stop Sign right outside the school zone. Because I was a popular, well-adjusted teenager with many exciting extracurriculars.

But I totally get it — I did date a TA in college once, and that was pretty hot. After all, in the immortal words of Ludacris in "What's Your Fantasy," "Schoolteacher / lemme get my grades." Which means sex. I think.

Have you ever been in Roberts' place with a teacher?

Emma Roberts is a Blonde!

Looks like Emma Roberts is jumping on the blonde bandwagon, lightening up her tresses just like Drew Barrymore, Emily Blunt, and Sofia Vergara did recently. 

When the actress wanted to go from beautiful brunette to blonde bombshell, she turned to Seama Eftekhari, a colorist at Nine Zero One Salon in West Hollywood, who switched up her strand color to a bright honey blonde.

But that wasn't the only hair change Emma made. Miss Roberts also went for longer locks with the help of Nikki Lee, hairstylist and co-owner of Nine Zero One Salon, who used Great Lengths hair extensions to make Emma's mane more Rapunzel-like.

What do you think of Emma's new 'do?

Aww Hell Nah: <i>Steel Magnolias</i> Director Was Mean to Julia Roberts

As if the movie itself wasn’t dramatic (and highly weepy) enough, apparently behind-the-scenes of Steel Magnolias was one Jersey Shore-style shitshow. Julia Roberts, who was just a 21-year-old rookie actress back in 1989, was being mercilessly bullied by director Herbert Ross, bringing her to tears on the regular.

According to Us Weekly, at this week's Target Presents AFI Night at the Movies in Hollywood, Sally Field said that Ross "did pick on one of us severely. He never told me I couldn't act...He went after Julia with a vengeance. This was pretty much her first big film." Shirley MacLaine, a.k.a Weezer, another one of the movie’s stars, said that Roberts would be in tears and "would come to my house every night and say, 'I think I'm terrible. What am I doing?'”

Roberts got her revenge. See: Pretty Woman, Oscar for Erin Brokovich, etc. Who’s the national treasure now, Ross? I really wanted to beat up this Ross character until I found out he died in 2001. Oops.

The inspiring thing is that just the way the women banded together in the movie, they did the same thing in real life! When Ross would harass the actresses and tell them they had no talent, they would all get together and support each other. Shirley MacLaine says, “We stayed friends after the movie. We never went to the director's funeral..."

Yeah, exactly.
