Robin Thicke Trades Paula for Jaime Pressly in Movie Debut (Watch)

'Making the Rules' quietly hit DVD in May

No, this is not a Funny or Die spoof of a rom-com. This is Robin Thicke wooing Jaime Pressly in a real movie called "Making the Rules," which went straight to DVD and On Demand in May.

In the film — shot in 2012, a year before his "Blurred Lines" breakout — Thicke's Shaun goes after his married ex, Abby (Pressly). "Making the Rules" marks the singer's movie debut, but it's far from his first acting gig; that would be his stint as "Boy" on a "Wonder Years" episode in 1989.

In the music department, Thicke released his seventh album, "Paula," on June 30 to little fanfare, but Billboard has some thoughts about how he could reclaim his "Blurred Lines" glory.
