Battleship and Savages star Taylor Kitsch is NOT a fan of sex scenes!

Says the star of his extremely intimate scenes in Savages with hot costar Blake Lively:

“It’s very awkward to do, you know, and I was just glad it was over with, to be honest…And it’s such a big part of [my character] and who he is, and that’s how you meet him. So it’s a pretty intense reveal, no pun intended.”

Kitsch, 31, barely knew Lively before they started filming, so they had to um, make do.

“A lot of sexual improv was going on there,” he says. “God knows we had two weeks of rehearsal, so we talked until we were about to pass out, and then [we shot the sex scenes] on the day I think I knew Blake three days … four days maybe.”

Gabbing with an ubersexy actor doesn’t sound like the worst thing in the world to me- but I get how things might be a bit less natural than a true-to-life sexual encounter would warrant.  Still- Lively is not the best actress (in my humble opinion), so I wonder how these scenes turned out.  Guess I’ll have to fork up the money to see Savages, eh?

Last night was Rihanna’s first appearance since being treated for “the flu” earlier this week. She walked the blue carpet at the L.A. premiere of her new film, ‘Battleship’.

Rihanna has dispelled rumors that her hospital stay was due to multiple nights of partying, and instead because she had the flu.

Rihanna wore a long white dress that exposed her thigh (ala Angelina Jolie).

“I’ve gotta hold on to my outfit a little tighter than usual,” she joked to “Access Hollywood.”

The star also spoke to the show about her medical treatment following the Met Costume Institute Gala in New York Monday night.

“I’m a lot better now… I had a couple days to rest and get rehydrated,” she said. “I just had the flu and I kept working and I wasn’t getting better so I took couple days off to sleep and I feel great.”

While Rihanna held that she was just under the weather earlier this week, reports have said that the star was partying overtime. Sources said that the singer had been drinking and smoking more than usual, one alleging that she was “going wild.” Before her appearance on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend, Rihanna opted out of a dress rehearsal, Lorne Michaels telling The Post that this was a first for a musical guest in the history of the 37-year-old show.

Still, Rihanna appeared in good spirits at the “Battleship” premiere. The film marks her acting debut.

“After I started doing videos, [acting] felt like something that I would be interested in,” she told “Access Hollywood.” “I didn’t know if I was gonna be any good or like it. But I tried it thanks to Peter Berg and Universal and it has been really tremendous, this experience.”

Also at the premiere: Malin Ackerman, Brooklyn Decker, Alexander Skarsgard and Taylor Kitsch.

Brooklyn Decker is a model, actress, and married to tennis star Andy Roddick. She’s everywhere right now, including the pages of GQ Magazine, looking hotter than ever (in my opinion). In order to promote her new films, ‘Battleship’ and  ’What to Expect When You’re Expecting”, Brooklyn sat down (and lounged around) with GQ in a new interview.

Here are the gorgeous pictures, along with some of the interview. You can see more pictures – and read the full interview here:

On Kristen Wiig.

“I feel like her character is my inner soul,” she explains now. “The ways she acts are my inner thoughts, but I just can’t express them because they’re too nerdy. So if he was calling her crazy, I guess that makes me slightly crazy.”

On supporting Gisele Bundchen, after she was slammed for trashing her husband’s (Tom Brady) teammates:

“I have a top-five list, and Gisele is my number one. So she can do no wrong in my eyes.” Hold on—what kind of list is this, exactly? “Well, everyone has a top-five list of their biggest crushes, you know?” says Decker. “Usually, it’s guys on my list, but Gisele is just so perfect in every way.”

On some of the “favorite” the men in her life:

One guy who didn’t make Decker’s list: Taylor Kitsch, her co-star and love interest in this month’s board-game-to-movie-blockbuster Battleship. Decker talks about the Friday Night Lights actor almost fraternally, labeling his habits (dirty jokes, hockey addiction, general Canadian-ness) as “Kitschisms.” “But you probably shouldn’t quote that—like, make it into an official noun or anything,” she says, “because then it’s going to make his head really big.”

Decker gets bashful only once during the conversation: when she’s pestered for more names in her top five. She finally agrees to share one more, and the reason for her reluctance crystallizes the moment she utters the name Dave Matthews. “Yeah, I know. I know.” She talks through the shocked silence. “I know! I know, I know. My husband is really gonna make fun of me for this.” For once, the men of America are on Andy Roddick’s side.

There’s also a video at the source. Enjoy!

Brooklyn Decker seems to be everywhere these days! When she’s not lounging by the pool in her bikini, she’s starring in films like ‘Battleship’ and ‘What to Expect When You’re Expecting’ and keeping her famous body in shape. (Check out her 2011 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover)

She covers the May issue of Women’s Health, and inside the mag she opened up about life with her tennis-star husband Andy Roddick, how she keeps in shape, and the girls she has a crush on.

On her husband, Andy Roddick:

“Being married to Andy has given me a new appreciation for my body,” she told the magazine. “He’s taught me that it’s not how thin you are that matters. It’s how your body performs, how it endures wear and tear.”

On bonding over a hike with her ‘Battleship’ costar Taylor Kitsch:

“You create a bonding experience that you never would have had,” she said about working out with friends. “My hike with Taylor Kitsch [her love interest in "Battleship"] was very strenuous, and we needed ropes to get to the top of the summit. But when we were finished, we knew each other a lot better than if we had just had the usual dinner and drinks night. Plus, no matter how much time you spend in the weight room, you simply can’t get a better workout for your legs than when you go for a long hike.”

Her current girl crushes: Kristen Wiig, Lana Del Rey and Erin Andrews:

“When I see a woman who’s overcome obstacles, who’s done something with her life, I want to say to her, ‘Wow, you’re cool. Your career is awesome, and I’d love to hang out with you.’ It’s a respect thing,” she said.

Brooklyn on whether or not she’s going to model again:

“I loved the travel but I didn’t love the work,” she said. “I mean, come on, modeling is only so stimulating!”

I like Brooklyn. She is gorgoues!

Rihanna’s outfit is so strange, isn’t it? She looks like a statue! I’m not really feeling Brooklyn Decker’s dress either, for that matter. She walked the red carpet with costar Taylor Kitsch.

‘Battleship’ premieres overseas, before debuting here in the US.

The  movie cost over $200 million to make, and insiders say it will need to bring in $500 million in order to “be pay off”.

The film is based on the popular Hasbro game, and is a huge gamble for Universal Pictures.

On the surface, little about “Battleship” the movie resembles the board game.

In the game, players call out letters and numbers that correspond to their opponents’ grid, hoping to hit and sink a set of ships hidden there.

In the movie, alien ships burst out of their hiding place in the ocean and trap some battleships under a giant force field inside which the two sides must duke it out. The aliens appear to have weapons with distinctly peg-like shapes, along with some spinning metal balls of death known as “shredders,” which were not part of the board game.

Hasbro has that little wrinkle covered.

The company is releasing a new version of the game using cards that enable the wielder to wipe out a whole row or column of their opponents’ pieces, offering kids a way to relive the experience of the movie at home.

Brooklyn Decker, Taylor Kitsch, and director Peter Berg were on hand for a photocall in Germany to promote ‘Battleship’.

The movie opens May 18th – have you seen the trailer yet?

Hopefully the press won’t be too hard on Taylor – asking questions about the epic failure of John Carter – while he’s out promoting ‘Battleship‘.

David Letterman had all the handsome fellas last night!  Taylor Kitsch, Neil Patrick Harris, and Jon Hamm were all seen heading in and out of the studio to tape an appearance yesterday.

Taylor is starring in the new ‘John Carter‘ movie.  Have you heard of it?  I’m finding that people are either REALLY excited about it or have NO IDEA what it is or what it’s about.
