Lord Of The Rings: The Return of the King

Lord Of The Rings: The Return of the King

We're a little more understanding of this one. When you shoot three epic movies pretty much back to back, and they're as long as the "Lord of the Rings" movies are, the odd mistake is bound to creep past tired eyes in the editing room. We're going to blame this one on the usually impeccable Sir Ian McKellan, who forgot one tiny detail when he went to put his costume on.

Here's Gandalf, ready to pitch in on the battlefield for all that is good and holy. And there, underneath the wizard's sleeve, is McKellan's wristwatch for all to see. Maybe there's a way around this one - Gandalf is a wizard after all, so maybe he magically created himself a way of telling the time years before anybody else thought of the idea. But if he could do that, why didn't he create himself a gun to fight with instead of a sword?

Chefs made their way into celebrity land a while ago. But how many celebrities that weren’t trained as professional cooks are actually whizzes in the kitchen? Here are several that come to mind.

Actress Julia Roberts is confident about her cooking skills. “I’m quite a good cook,” she told E! News. “I’m like a closet home ec teacher…I can really cook anything.” Roberts has said she often cooks fish for herself and her kids. And speaking of her three children, “They think that I’m a good cook,” Roberts told People. “They actually told me that I should open a restaurant.” She also relishes cooking for the holidays, particularly shredded Brussel sprouts. Roberts hasn’t published a cookbook, but we did find recipes attributed to her for peach crisp and banana hemp muffins. Or you can make the same summer salad the actress supposedly eats.

Chrissy Teigen started off as a supermodel. Then her love of cooking filtered into her professional life too. At this point, she’s created recipes for a limited Blue Apron release and also just launched her own home and cooking line at Target named “Cravings,” after the two cookbooks she’s released. Teigen describes cooking as “a time of peace” for herself. So maybe peace out to her tuna melt sandwich or the fried chicken wings that are a favorite of her husband, John Legend.

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, comes from a cooking Italian family. Her father started his own restaurant in New York and also published a cookbook. And apparently, Lady Gaga has inherited the family’s cooking genes. Her Instagram account occasionally features photos of her culinary activities. Sure, sometimes it’s topless cooking. But other times it’s more poignant like in the post she shared about her bringing food to the family of her dear friend who passed away. Want to try a Gaga/Germanotta family favorite? Check out her recipe for whole wheat pasta with a sweet fennel sauce.
