Seth MacFarlane, we get it: you like to sing. You really, really like to sing. You sing in every single episode of Family Guy. As several difference characters. Sometimes at once. You released an album of your singing, Music Is Better Than Words. Your song from your film Ted (Everybody Needs a Best Friend) is nominated for an Oscar.

They're talking to us. George [Lucas] wanted to know whether we'd be interested. He did say that if we didn't want to do it, they wouldn't cast another actor in our parts; they would write us out. I can tell you right away that we haven't signed any contracts. We're in the stage where they want us to go in and meet with Michael Arndt, who is the writer, and Kathleen Kennedy, who is going to run Lucasfilm. Both have had meetings set that were postponed -- on their end, not mine. They're more busy than I am.
Omg, Mark Hamill, you adorable national treasure. "They're more busy than I am." That is some beautiful honesty right there.
In January it was announced that J.J. Abrams is directing the first sequel, Episode VII. Then, there was discussion that Harrison Ford is reprising his role as Han Solo, but reports conflict as to whether or not it's official just yet. Rolling Stone says it is, but check out their source.
From Rolling Stone:
Harrison Ford will return as the original space cowboy, Han Solo, in the new installments of the Star Wars franchise, according to Fox News Latino columnist Umberto "El Mayimbe" Gonzalez. The reporter said he "triple checked" his "legitimate sources"...
Oh cool, well we all know how legit that Umberto "El Mayimbe" Gonzalez is.
Hamill goes onto speculate,
I'm assuming, because I haven't talked to the writers, that these movies would be about our offspring -- like my character would be sort of in the Obi-Wan range [as] an influential character. … When I found out [while making the original trilogy] that ultimate good news/bad news joke – the good news is there's a real attractive, hot girl in the universe; the bad news is she's your sister – I thought, 'Well, I'm going to wind up like Sir Alec. I'm going to be a lonely old hermit living out in some kind of desert igloo with a couple of robots.'

With the help of his daughter, Diesel obtained a mic and an amp while Jimenez was on a flight and "the rest is history," he tells PEOPLE.
And the response his romantic video has been getting has been even better.
"People say 'I didn't know you were a Rihanna fan?' " he says. "How could you not be a fan of her voice, her gift."
But while the actor says he's been putting out fun singing videos "for years" – and sang in Strays and The Pacifier – he adds that "no one ever took it this [seriously]."
Bless his heart. I'm a Rihanna fan - not that I'd ever talk about her "gift", per se, but whatever. After this, I'm definitely a Vin fan, as well.

Valentine's Day is a pretty romantic holiday, and no man knows romance like Vin Diesel (or something). So how does he celebrate? He covers Rihanna's 'Stay' and puts it on YouTube, apparently. The clip went viral last week, leading people to wonder... well, simply, why? Here's why: It was a gift for his girlfriend Paloma Jimenez in lieu of a traditional Valentine's Day card. That and he really likes Rihanna.
