The Critics Choice Awards were held yesterday in Los Angeles and Colin Firth and Natalie Portman absolutely dominated the show.

They were named Best Actor and Actress at the show, which is a clear indication that they'll be in the running for the Oscars as well.

Accepting her award, the always gracious Natalie thanked 'Black Swan' director Darren Aaronofsky not only for his work on the film, but for introducing her to fiance Benjamin Millepied, with whom she is now expecting a baby.

Addressing Darren, she said: “You are responsible for getting me skinny and indirectly responsible for getting me very fat, as you introduced me to my love.”

Lady Gaga is on fire! Not only is she in the middle of her wildly successful 'Monster Ball' tour, she's reportedly in talks to star in Quentin Tarantino’s next movie!

Gaga has reportedly been asked to play an assassin in Tarantino's next flick, because the filmmaker is absolutely fascinated with her.

“Quentin is a huge fan of GaGa and loves her whole personality,” reveals a source close to the director. “He has already sounded her out on a couple of projects, one of which would see her playing an assassin.

“Movies would be a huge new venture for GaGa but she’s excited at the prospect and Quentin has told her she’d be a natural.”

Gaga apparently caught the acting bug after her brief cameo on Gossip Girl. “She sees acting as a natural progression in her career,” a source said in November. “One idea she has is for a rock opera which would be a huge big budget movie made to her own very unique ideas.

“But she is also keen on straight dramatic roles. She has the drive and confidence to make it big as an actress. It’s just a matter of finding time between her first love — music.”

Gaga on the big screen? Where do we sign up?! A collaboration with Tarantino seems to be the perfect fit for her, so we can't wait for this to officially be set in stone. What do you guys think of the collaboration?

Kill Bill is coming back for its third installment! According to the director of the franchise Quentin Tarantino, he’s planning on making Kill Bill 3 in a couple of years.

This is much earlier than expected, given what Tarantino told EW in an interview saying it would be 15 years before he did a sequel to the sequel.

Quentin tells Moviefone, "'Kill Bill 3' will probably come out -- I've got to wait a couple years because I wanted 10 years to pass from the second one to the third one.”

"Two reasons. One, I think me and Uma needed a 10-year break because the first one was so hard. And the second one is: I love the character of the Bride. I just really, really love her. And I think she deserved 10 years of peace. She deserved 10 years of no fighting. She deserved 10 years with her child B.B. just of peace. I put her through a lot in those first two movies, and I wanted her to have a nice peaceful life for 10 years. I wanted her to hang up her sword and have some peace. Then after 10 years, something will happen that makes her fight again."

Luckily a little makeup and lighting can do wonders for aging! We’re sure Uma Thurman won’t mind! As for the plot, Tarantin says the third installment will revolve around dismembered villainess Sophie Fatale raising Nikki, the daughter of Vernita Green (Vivica A. Fox), and helping her seek revenge against the Bride for killing her mom.

Who could wait 10 years anyway?!
