Logan Lerman disappointed by idols
The 33-year-old actor has previously been upset after getting the chance to meet actors he admired and finding out they were 'a*******' but he was thrilled to discover that Martin Short was as wonderful in real life as he is on screen, when they worked on Only Murders in the Building.
He told The Hollywood Reporter: 'It's scary to meet someone you love so much because they can ruin their entire filmography for you by being an a******. That's happened to me, and those people shall remain nameless, but meeting Martin made me love his work even more.'
Logan's next movie is Oh, Hi! with Molly Gordon and he estimates he spent about 100 hours in bed during filming as his character spends most of the movie handcuffed to his love interest's bed frame.
He said: 'When I first read the script, I did wonder how we'd make it work, energy-wise, but I saw it came down to the bed frame and how much movement it allowed. Once we figured that out, I'd just show up to work and hop into bed.
'The hardest part was knowing I had to be naked every day - and look the same every day. That took more effort, especially toward the end of the shoot.'

Selena Gomez wanted fragrance bottle to be inclusive
Selena Gomez's fragrance bottle was designed with the help of a rehab facility and hand therapists. The Only Murders in the Building actress' Rare Beauty brand will launch Rare Eau de Parfum next week and because of the dexterity issues she suffers with as a result of auto-immune condition Lupus, Selena wanted to make sure the packaging was inclusive so brought in experts, including the Casa Colina clinic, engineers and certified hand therapists, to offer input on the design. She told WWD: 'I have dexterity problems from my lupus, so sometimes it's hard for me to open a bottle of water or do anything. 'Sometimes I've had to use a spray and, like, put both my fingers on it. It's not as sad as it sounds. I'm alive, and that's all that matters.' The 33-year-old star quietly tested the fragrance personally and used everyday moments to obtain reactions to the scent. She explained: 'It was really funny, because sometimes I would accidentally — I would accidentally or purposefully, I should say — get close to people and see if they could smell anything. 'I would just flat out ask everyone I was around. I would tell them what it is, and say, 'What do you think?'' Selena - who is engaged to Benny Blanco - wanted to reflect her contentment in both her personal and professional lives with the fragrance. She said: 'Some of my best memories were when I was creating this, in our little test tube, when I got engaged, when I got to celebrate my birthday, 32nd birthday. 'It was just something that made me feel like a piece of me. And I wanted everyone to enjoy it. I was hoping that it would embody the place of life that I'm in.' Although Rare Beauty hasn't released a fragrance before, Selena released two scents through a partnership with Adrenalina Inc. when she was just 19 years old but she doesn't "even remember" what they were like. She reflected: 'I was so young. "The sweetest thing — a few months ago, [I saw] someone had saved the box that my [first] fragrance was in. It's so long ago, I couldn't help but laugh, because it had just been a trying time in my life where I really was trying hard to be cool. "I don't even remember what it smells like. I don't think it would be anything I'd wear now. This is definitely more me.'

Eddie Murphy to play Clouseau in new Pink Panther movie
