Paul Walker: Mourned, Honored on Anniversary of His Death

November 30th will forever be remembered as a sad day in Hollywood history.

Two years ago on this date, Paul Walker was killed in a car accident during a brief hiatus from filming the movie Furious 7.

It was a death that left all who knew the beloved 40-year old stunned and heartbroken, no one more than so than Walker’s co-stars in the Fast and Furious franchise.

On the two-year anniversary of his close pal’s tragic passing, Vin Diesel shared the above photo of himself and Walker and included with it the following caption/message:

“No matter where you are in this universe… You will always be, my brother.”

Tyrese, meanwhile, shared a lengthy message of his own on Instagram, writing: 

“It’s still not easy…… 2 years ago today… We lost our brother….. Today I’m just gonna lay low and process….. Clarity through Prayers and perspective is what I always seek and pray for….”

He continued:

“With a heavy heart I post this….. Please continue to pray for the Walker family and his real friends who was with him every single day…. They’re some of the best and strongest people I know……

“I know you’re in heaven smiling and rooting for us all….. #RIH ( Rest in heaven )”

Despite Walker’s death, the actor has remained an important part of his friends’ lives.

In March, for example, Diesel named his newborn daughter Pauline honor of the late star.

A few months later, the cast participated in a tribute during the Teen Choice Awards, where Diesel thanked Walker’s daughter Meadow for helping to keep their family “going.”

We at The Hollywood Gossip also send our thoughts and prayers to everyone who knew and loved Paul Walker.

Justin Bieber Flaunts Six-Pack, Neck Tan

Last Sunday night, Justin Bieber got into some hot water for wearing a Nirvana shirt to the American Music Awards.

So, what’s the best way for Bieber to avoid similar controversy? That’s easy…

… don’t wear a shirt at all!

The artist has garnered over 1.3 million Likes on Instagram for sharing the above image, which features Justin donning a wool cap and keeping his head warm.

And while making fans feel something warm down below (if you know what we mean!) because the artist’s torso and six-pack are on full display.

So is Justin’s neck tan.

Bieber did not include a caption with this sexy photo because, really, what is there to say?

If a picture is worth 1,000 words, each of the words used here would be a synonym for “HAWT!”

The global superstar is coming off a very good couple weeks.

His latest album shot to number-one the week after it was released, beating out One Direction in the process.

Elsewhere, Bieber became the first musician since The Beatles to chart three singles on the Hot 100 top five; while actually making music history by becoming the first artist EVER to have 17 songs on the chart at once.

Yes, 17 songs at once.

Justin Bieber. He isn’t just uber hot. He’s crazy popular as well.

Joshua Shintani Dies; Shallow Hal Star was 32

Joshua Shintani, an actor who made his one movie role into a very memorable one, died last Wednesday of complications from pneumonia.

He was 32 years old.

Shintani appeared opposite Jack Black and Gwyneth Paltrow (and Jason Alexander, as pictured above) in the 2001 comedy Shallow Hal.

He made a cameo in the film as a ukulele player who played the song “Never Forget Where I’m From,” having been discovered by Peter Farrelly.

The director was on vacation in Hawaii and the spotted the high school senior strumming his instrument outside a public library.

He hired Shintani on the spot and Shallow Hal became his first – and ultimately, only – big screen credit.

According to TMZ, Joshua’s mother took him to the emergency room in Kauai last week.

There, it was discovered that he was battling an advanced case of pneumonia.

We send our thoughts and prayers to Shintani’s friends, family members and loved ones.
