Thanks to CGI, Paul Walker Can Now Star in 'Fast & Furious' Films Forever, Despite His Death

In a massively creepy move, Universal Pictures has announced that Paul Walkerwill star in the upcoming Fast & Furious 7, despite having died in a car crash last November. Walker had not completed shooting his scenes for the film when he died and now Universal has cleared up how they will work around his untimely death: CGI.

According to the New York Daily News, Universal has hired lookalike actors to serve as body doubles and will use CGI and voice effects for his face and voice. "They have hired four actors with bodies very similar to Paul’s physique and they will be used for movement and as a base," the Daily News quotes a "source close to production" as saying. "Paul’s face and voice will be used on top using CGI."

Following Walker's death last year, shooting on Fast & Furious 7 was halted. In December it was announced that Walker would still star in the film and that it was being rewritten to include a farewell to Walker's character Brian O'Conner, using footage Walker had already shot. It was generally assumed that Walker's role in the seventh Fast & Furious, which has been delayed until April 2015, would be fairly small. But using body doubles and voice manipulation, Universal can do pretty much anything it likes with Walker and O'Conner.

Hopefully the studio will respect Walker's death and the tragic irony that he died in a car crash and not go overboard here. The Daily News' insider urges that the CGI option was the studio's first choice and that it "feels confident fans of the franchise will feel satisfied with the result." It would be a shame for the studio to use technology to fill in Walker's original role, rather than something smaller and more sensitive to his memory, and to the family he left behind.

Kourtney Kardashian Talks About Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's Controversial 'Vogue' Cover

Kourtney Kardashian has no time for you and your petty bullsh.

The Keeping up with the Kardashians star admits she had no idea Kanye West had to "lobby" for Kim Kardashian to be on the cover of Vogue. And she really could care less about it and all of your negative responses that come along with it.

"I haven't seen any reaction.  I've literally been unpacking.  I don't hear about any news.  I'm kind of the last to hear anything," she told Lara Spencer on Good Morning America Monday.  "But I posted it on my Instagram and saw amazing response and stuff and I'm so happy for Kim."

The reality star visited GMA to promote her Kardashian Kids clothing line, but of course, the now infamous cover took precedent.

Spencer mentioned how Kanye had been lobbying to get Kim on the cover for several months, which was news to Kourtney.  "Really?  I swear I am the last to know anything,"  Kourtney continued.  "But I'm really happy for them.  I think it's beautiful."

Well, one thing's for sure: Kourt's a really awesome, supportive big sis to Kimmie and the rest of the Kardashian Klan!

When asked about the rest of her famous family, she didn't go into specifics and stayed very positive.  "Everyone's great! We've been so busy filming.  I think there are a lot of changes lately, but everything's kind of new beginnings. It kind of goes with the territory when we film, and there's highs and lows, and we show all of those moments always have.  But everything's kind of turning into more positive, I would say."

As for the real reason she came on the show to talk about thew Kardashian Kids collection she mentioned it's really been her own project, telling GMA, "When I was pregnant with Penelope Disick, I said to my sisters, 'Let's do a kids clothing line. It would be so much fun.' Kim wasn't even pregnant yet with North West. They were like, 'Okay, if you wanna take over.'"

And that's exactly what she did.  According to Kourtney, "My sisters helped approve everything, but I really took charge. I really took what I dress [my daughter] in as the inspiration for the collection."

Heidi Klum Shows Off Her Bikini Body and New Bodyguard in The Bahamas

Fresh off a romantic Paris getaway with her new boyfriend, Vito Schnabel, Heidi Klum is now enjoying the Caribbean with her four children. The America's Got Talent judge, 40, wore a black bikini as she enjoyed the crystal blue waters of the Bahamas with kids Leni,9, Henry, 8, Johan, 7, Lou, 4 and a new buff bodyguard. 

Klum, who split from former boyfriend/bodyguard Martin Kirsten back in January, appears to have hired a new minder. The beefy bodyguard was spotted swimming alongside the family as they floated on rafts and basked in the sun.

Heidi's ex singer Seal, and father to her children, is evidently not thrilled with the German model's behavior as of late. ShowbizSpy.com reports that “As far as Seal is concerned, Heidi’s the mother of his kids, and he wants her to maintain a level of dignity and decorum." Several media outlets reported that lusty lovers Vito and Heidi have been unable to resist each other in public, making out in front of fellow club goers at Bootsy Bellows in February and engaging in even more PDA the night of the Oscars. “Seal wishes Heidi would wise up," ShowbizSpy's source says.

As for the wedding, Future admits he's letting Ciara do all the planning, while he does the approving. Because not only does he have a baby on the way, he'll also be dropping a new album titled "Honest" in April.

The album was originally supposed to be released last year, but had to be delayed because of Beyoncé's surprise album in December.  They both had been working on a record for "Drunk in Love," so when it appeared on Bey's album, he postponed the release of his.
