Christie should take Apatow’s advice lest the director cast him as a political villain in his next film preventing any and all future for him as the GOP candidate in 2016. Get on board, Christie.

.@GovChristie lots of politicians have announced that their positions have evolved. Maybe you don't want to be the last person to get it.

There was Kristin Wiig, Lena Dunham, and now it’s Amy Schumer, Judd Apatow’s newest comedic talent. Schumer, the star of Comedy Central’s Inside Amy Schumer, has written an untitled screenplay and Apatow has signed on, along with Universal Pictures, to “develop the story and shape the script,” Deadline reports.

Schumer first came on the radar with standout turns on Comedy Central roasts of Roseanne Barr and Charlie Sheen. That led the network to launch her as writer/star and exec producer of the series Inside Amy Schumer, which premiered to Comedy Central’s highest ratings this year. Before that, she starred in the hourlong special, Mostly Sex Stuff for Comedy Central. Schumer and Apatow are represented by UTA and manager Jimmy Miller of Mosaic.

Well, she’s doing pretty well for herself. If the new film is anything like Bridesmaids or Girls, we’ll probably love it.

If the internet could explode— a catastrophe that’s neither been verified, denied, or fathomed, really— it would probably happen today. With all the coverage of Miley Cyrus’ MTV Video Music Awards performance, hardworking Americans are struggling to focus at work; fighting the urge to watch each GIF on Buzzfeed, to read each contrarian analysis on Slate.

But in the face of such adversity, one man unites us in under 140 characters, saying exactly what everyone is thinking— the core reason Cyrus’ performance has shaken the nation:

I will always have this version of Miley. Let's live in the past and heal. pic.twitter.com/zMsEW2PvfO

It’s hard, but impossible not to watch a tween queen gone berserk. Thanks for the perspective, Judd. We can all get through this together.

Funny or Die brings us these bloopers from Judd Apatow’s latest, This is 40, and they’re pretty funny.

The best part comes from Jewcy favorite Jason Segel, who’s having some trouble keeping a straight face while intimately stretching Leslie Mann’s character. He’s supposed to say “Everything you need is inside of you,” but he keeps cracking up.

“Come on, Segel. This is what you do,” he says to himself in an adorable pep talk. “This is what I do for a living.”
