If you love Zoolander anywhere near as much as I do, then you need to watch this clip from SNL immediately. Ben Stiller was this week's host, and he brought out everyone's favorite ridiculously good-looking model to join the Stefon segment of Weekend Update. Stefon and Derek are pretty much a match made in hilarious heaven, and Derek reveals his brand new look, "cold coffee." Can we get that Zoolander sequel now, please?

It's time for another edition of Buzz Lines, the newest feature on BuzzSugar where we reminisce about the best lines from beloved movies. Last week we paid homage to The Big Lebowski, but for the latest round, let's honor the dim-witted male models of Zoolander.

I'll get you going with a few quotes that I often love to cite, then have at it by chiming in with your favorite gem in the comments!

• "I think I'm getting the black lung Pop." — Derek
• "You is talking loco and I like it!" — Hansel
• "It's that damn Hansel. He's so hot right now." — Mugatu

Brad Pitt pops up in Spike Lee's new documentary about New Orleans, Kim Kardashian argues that her sexy shoot with Justin Bieber was all in good fun, and we celebrate Alexander Skarsgard's birthday with fun clips through the years. Watch today's all new PopSugar Rush!

True Blood may have put Alexander Skarsgard on the map, but the actor had his share of small-time Hollywood appearances before he hit it big as Eric. Remember Derek's simple-minded model friends in Zoolander? Meekus is played by none other than Skarsgard, looking pretty yet goofy before he meets his demise in a freak gasoline fight incident. Check out the clip, and be sure to peek at these new True Blood photos to see what a difference a few years makes. Alexander Skarsgard, so hot right now.

Have you ever wondered if there could be more than just one really, really ridiculously good Zoolander movie? Well, we're all about to find out. Ben Stiller is reteaming with Justin Theroux (who helped write the first movie) for a sequel to the 2001 comedy. Theroux will direct this time around, and word on the street is that he's already planning on hitting Paris Fashion Week to conduct some research.

I'm guessing it won't be too hard for Stiller to convince Christine Taylor to reprise her role as Matilda (they are married, after all), and apparently Jonah Hill is close to signing on as the villain. There is one major piece of the puzzle missing though: Owen Wilson has yet to confirm that he'll return as Hansel.

I usually have mixed feelings when I hear that a sequel to a movie that I absolutely love is in the works, but I'm setting aside any skepticism for this one and just hoping for out-and-out fabulousness. That said, I think a sequel would be nothing without Hansel, especially with Jonah Hill trying to fill big shoes left by Will Ferrell's Mugatu.

Last year most of you said you would be game for a sequel, but how do you feel about the new developments — and what kind of story can you see for Derek, nine years after opening the Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good (and Want to Learn to Do Other Stuff Good, Too)?
