Anna Faris is lining up a new project. We’ve learned from friends involved in the production that she’s being courted for a new horror/comedy called Burn Off.

The movie is about a man named Peter Hansen, a fitness obsessed man whose once thin wife has gotten fat. To help them both achieve the perfect weight, he begins using a diet drink called “Burn Off” which doesn’t work as advertised. The user loses weight, but also his mind. The drink turns Peter into a sadistic murderer who keeps his wife a locked in the basement. No confirmation on what part Anna would play, but it seems likely that she’ll end up imprisoned downstairs.

At one point Larry Cohen was to direct, but we hear that they’re hoping to get Rob Zombie to helm it. He’s never done comedy before, but the man has a rapidly growing reputation as a horror director with a psychotic edge. Can he be funny? We may find out.

If they’re able to get Faris as their lead, she’ll join a cast already composed of Tony Todd, Elizabeth Berkley, and Jason Mewes. Robert A Trezza, Mark Daponte wrote the script, and they're planning a $25 million shoot in Mexico once they get everything locked in.l

Che is barely in theaters and we’re already hearing about a follow up - thankfully not in the form of a sequel though. Instead the writer/producer team of Peter Buchman and Steven Soderbergh are working together on another film, switching from one Cuban revolutionary to another - one that successfully infiltrated the mob.

Hollywood Reporter announced the project, Making Jack Falcone, which will tell the story of Jack Falcone aka Joaquin Garcia, an FBI agent who almost became a made man after going undercover and infiltrating the Gambino crime family. The trade newspaper offered that the story based on Garcia’s life, and the man’s ability to shift between Sicilian, Cuban, and other ethnicities, should be very appealing to actors adept at transforming themselves for a role.

Buchman will write Making Jack Falcone, based on the Simon & Schuster / Touchstone book released last month. Soderbergh will serve as executive producer, offering guidance as needed. The picture is set up at Paramount, joining several other mafia pictures in development at the studio.l

Fashion designer Tom Ford has snagged two up and comers to join the already stellar cast of his directorial debut, A Single Man. HR reports that Ginnifer Goodwin and Nicholas Hoult will round out the ensemble.

A Single Man is an adaptation of the Christopher Isherwood novel and will follow the trials and tribulations of a gay professor in the ‘60s, played by Colin Firth. Goodwin (Big Love) will play an intrigued neighbor who befriends Firth. Newcomer from across the pond, Hault (About a Boy), will play one of his students who is confused about his sexuality. Julianne Moore and Matthew Goode also star.

With Milk about to be in theaters and now this, it seems that gayness in films is finally moving on from Brokeback Mountain. After his turn as the stereotypical “gay one” in paisley pants in Mama Mia, I am excited to see Colin Firth play a more serious gay man. And, who better to direct a flick about a single gay man than an out and proud queer man? I hope this movie is as flamboyant as Ford’s clothes. Go gettem, Ford!l

Charlize Theron is taking a trip with Tom Cruise. Variety says she’s joined the cast of The Tourist, where she’ll play an Interpol agent who uses an American tourist (Cruise) to hunt down a criminal whom she once had relations of an intimate nature with. That means ---.

The movie is a remake of a French film from way back in 2005. I’m not sure it’s wise to remake something so old, but with Charlize Theron and Tom Cruise involved, you have to assume Hollywood knows what it’s doing. They start shooting in March, which should give us all plenty of time to forget how much Tom Cruise sucked in Valkyrie, making it easier to be optimistic about a movie in which we watch him trudging around in flip-flops on vacation. Of course since it’s Tom Cruise, his vacation will include Charlize Theron and things blowing up.l

Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa is not even in theaters yet and it’s already breaking records, of a sort. DreamWorks Animation announced this morning that when the movie opens on Friday it will do so in a record-breaking number of IMAX theaters, in addition to showings on thousands of regular theater screens.

In total, the film will be available in 130 IMAX theaters, 35 of which are equipped with the new whiz-bang IMAX digital projection system. That’s more IMAX showings than ever delivered by any other film, and it demonstrates the level of interest Hollywood seems to have in pushing further and further into IMAX technology. Madagascar 2 is the second of five movies which DreamWorks Animation plans to release in the format. The next three will be not only in IMAX but also in 3D. Those are Monsters vs. Aliens (March 2009), How to Train Your Dragon (March 2010), and Shrek Goes Fourth (May 2010).

Of course for most of you, this is utterly meaningless since IMAX locations are generally hard to come by unless you happen to live in a sprawling metropolis. Or if you’re like me, you live in a sprawling metropolis, but on the wrong side of it, leaving an hour drive to the nearest IMAX theater. Hard to justify when there’s a perfectly serviceable theater with perfectly serviceable projection and lower ticket prices just down the block.

If you can find it and you can afford it though, there’s no better way to see a movie than in IMAX. Even if that movie is Madagascar 2. l

Jessica Simpson's hairdresser pal is healing well after he was injured during a paparazzi scrum at the weekend.

Celebrity stylist Ken Paves needed nine stitches in his head after he was cut trying to protect the singer from photographers as they left Los Angeles' Madeo restaurant on Saturday.

Paves insists he is recovering but appeals to photographers to take more care, so the accident isn't repeated.

He tells Usmagazine.com, "I appreciate everyone who has expressed concern after the incident which occurred outside of Madeo restaurant Saturday evening. While I did not expect a dinner out with friends would end up with me in the emergency room and nine stitches in my head, I am fine.

"My only real concern on Saturday night, and it remains so in retrospect, was for the safety of my friend and all concerned.

"I understand everyone has a job to do, including paparazzi. If I were to say anything about Saturday night, it is only to encourage that everyone would respect and care for the safety of others above all else." l

Tim Robbins' election day started with drama in New York on Tuesday, when the actor was blocked from voting by officials.

The fervent Barack Obama supporter attempted to register his vote for the Democrat candidate for president at a polling station near his home in the city, the same station he had attended for the past 15 years - but his name wasn't on the list.

When instructed to fill out a provisional ballot, Robbins refused, repeating a claim he had made on U.S. political pundit Bill Maher's TV show just a week before - when he warned that the paper votes aren't properly counted.

He told Maher, "They're throwing those out... If that's your last resort, take it, but fight in the polling place to vote. It's your right as an American. You have every right to vote if you're registered. And if you're not on the rolls and something went wrong, document it."

The fuming 50 year old told the New York Times on Tuesday, "The issue is that they removed my name from the voting rolls. My name was there for the primaries. The poll workers here know me. I've been voting here 15 years."

When a poll worker threatened to call police, the actor retorted, "Is this some kind of intimidation? I'm taking this as intimidation."

Eventually Robbins raced to New York's Board of Elections, where he discovered he was registered to vote after all. He then returned to cast his vote. l

Kirsten Dunst has launched an investigation of the U.S. voting system in a new documentary.

Dunst has teamed up with filmmaker Jacob Soboroff to direct and produce the film, exploring why American voter participation lags behind turnout in most other countries.

The two are currently at work in North Dakota - the only state without voter registration - where they will interview government officials as citizens take to the polls for Tuesday's presidential election.

Voters must instead bring a photo ID issued by the state, military or an American Indian tribe, a recent utility bill listing their address or sign a sworn statement attesting that they are eligible to vote in their precinct.

And the actress is convinced it's up to her to shed light on the process.

She says, "The older you get, it makes you feel more and more responsible for the power you have, especially being in the entertainment industry... and how delicate and important it is to use that power to influence people in a positive way.

"Being a part of this is constantly teaching me new things. I feel totally honoured and was really proud to vote, and have never been so proud to vote in my entire life."

Dunst also plans to narrate the documentary, but doesn't know yet whether she will appear in it. l

Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood has branded politicians "sell outs" after serving as a small-town mayor in the 1980s.

The Dirty Harry star, 78, governed Californian beach haven Carmel-by-the-sea from 1986 to 1988.

But the actor insists it was as high as his political ambitions go.

He says, "I enjoyed being Mayor of Carmel, but you do see that it is very difficult to get things done. You just have to lose your soul. You have to bulls**t people.

"You have to deal with people you don't care for and will never be friends with, so you kind of sell yourself out to be a politician. You have to kiss it up with the world. That ain't (sic) my style." l

Talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey launched a last-minute bid to urge Americans to vote on Tuesday.

The host has rallied around Democratic candidate Barack Obama since publicly endorsing him in December, and she started out election day by encouraging her fellow citizens to ignore long lines at the polls.

In an election-day interview with New York radio station Power 105.1, Winfrey, who cast her vote for Obama last week (ends31Oct08), said, "Come with your book, bring your iPod. Get ready to sit and have a party with yourself. There is no better way to celebrate than standing in line. Take your families. For so many people who have kids, it's a wonderful thing for your kids to see.

"We're going to remember this forever. Your kids will be telling their kids that they were there in the booth with their parents."

The host stood in line for an hour and 10 minutes when she voted last week, taking advantage of early-voting laws in Illinois.

She remembers: "I was voting in a precinct that was across the street from a drug treatment centre. Thirty-seven women from the treatment centre - they had just detoxed - had come over and voted for the first time, and it was fantastic.

"It's a miracle that's happening, really. I can feel the shift in our country."

And Winfrey has already prepared for her candidate's victory, adding: "When Barack wins this evening, it's a victory for all of America, because black people and brown people and red people and yellow people all understand that he understands that all villages matter. That's what (former Secretary of State) Colin Powell said when gave that beautiful endorsement of him. That is why I loved and supported him from the beginning."

Winfrey's endorsement of the Democrat was the first time she has ever publicly backed a presidential candidate

Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman has laid down a new rule forbidding her family to be apart for more than a week at a time.

Both Kidman and her singer husband, Keith Urban, vowed to prioritise their personal lives over their work following the birth of their first child together, daughter Sunday Rose, in July.

The Australian star admits that she used to be separated from her husband for long periods of time because of their busy schedules, but recently reduced the allowed time gap to two weeks.

But Kidman now can't bear to be apart from her family for any more than seven days.

She tells U.S. magazine Glamour, "We reduced it even more. I have reached a stage in my life when I want to be with the ones I love. I used to be willing to do two weeks. And that is too much now; my heart aches.

"I've given a lot to my work, and I'm not willing to give as much to that anymore. At this time in my life, I want to be giving to my relationships." l

British actress Kate Winslet is convinced growing up as an overweight teenager has scarred her for life - because she still always feels like the "fat kid".

Winslet struggled with her weight throughout her youth and insists her battle with the bulge led to deep-rooted insecurities which have plagued her throughout her acting career.

She tells Vanity Fair magazine, "I was fat. I didn't know any fat famous actresses. I just did not see myself in that world at all.

"Once a fat kid, always a fat kid. Because you always think that you just look a little bit wrong or a little bit different from everyone else.

"And I still sort of have that. I often look at women who wear great jeans and high heels and nice little T-shirts wandering around the city and I think, I should make more of an effort. I should look like that." l

Charlize Theron has settled a $20 million (GBP12.6 million) lawsuit with the luxury watchmaker that accused her of breach of contract.

Bosses at Swiss company Raymond Weil claimed they paid Theron the sum to wear its watches exclusively between October 2005 and December 2006.

According to court documents, Theron broke their agreement when she "was actually photographed wearing a watch from the Christian Dior line" at a press event in Austin, Texas on 14 March 2006.

The following month, Theron modelled a Montblanc watch on a billboard at a Swiss trade show.

Company executives added the violations "demonstrate a total disregard by (Theron) for any of her obligations under the agreement".

The settlement follows her lawyers' failed attempts to have the case dismissed.

New court documents filed in Manhattan Federal Court reveal the suit will be tossed when it is finalised within 30 days.

Terms of the settlement in the have not been disclosed

Actress Jennifer Hudson blames herself for last month's tragic murders of her mother, brother and nephew in her native Chicago, Illinois - insisting she should have convinced her family to move out of the troubled neighbourhood.

Hudson's mother, Darnell Donerson, and brother, Jason, were found shot dead at their home in the city on 24 October. The singer/actress' seven-year-old nephew, Julian King, was also killed - his body was found in an abandoned car three days later.

And the Oscar-winning Dreamgirls star, 27, now feels wracked with guilt over the deaths, claiming she should have done more to move them away from the family home in Chicago's notorious South Side to live with her in Los Angeles.

Family friend Sharita Dickey says, "Jennifer grew up on Chicago's South Side, and knew all about the violence. She was able to get out, and wanted to take her mama with her, but Darnell said no."

Hudson's second cousin, Reverend Krista Alston, adds, "Jennifer is hurting and asking why this happened. She's asking why she didn't do more to persuade Darnell to move away.

"It was Darnell's decision to stay here in Chicago. This was her home and her family were here."

Police are currently quizzing William Balfour, the estranged husband of Hudson's sister Julia, over the slayings, but authorities have not filed any charges against him

Supermodel Heidi Klum has been indulging in a little Risky Business for moviemaker Brett Ratner - performing Tom Cruise's famous film moves for a new Guitar Hero: World Tour commercial.

Dressed in a shirt, underpants and white socks, Klum dances and plays air guitar to Bob Seger's Old Time Rock And Roll - just like Cruise did in his 1983 breakthrough movie role.

And she admits that dancing for ad director Ratner wasn't quite as easy as it appears - and left her with bruises and burns all over her legs.

Klum says, "He (Ratner) really wanted to have it exactly like Tom Cruise did this... It was harder than I thought it was gonna be."l

Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan has made a last-ditch attempt to urge her fans to vote in Tuesday's U.S. presidential election, insisting every vote counts.

The Mean Girls star, 22, made the plea online in her MySpace.com blog on Monday.

She writes, "I cannot say how important it is for everyone to get out there and vote tomorrow...The future of our country depends on it.

"Just one vote can make such a difference... Vote - because your thoughts are worth it..Vote - because You can make this country a better place...Vote - because you can."

Lohan has previously slammed Republican John McCain's running mate Sarah Palin for her strict views on gay rights, branding the Alaska Governor a "narrow-minded, media-obsessed homophobe".

And she urged fans to reject two controversial Californian initiatives: Proposition 8, which bans gay marriage; and Proposition 4, which requires parents to get 48 hours' notice before doctors perform abortions on a minor.

Lohan also voiced her support for Democratic hopeful Barack Obama with a simple message, stating, "Obama for president :)". l

Horror moviemaker Darren Lynn Bousman's mother was so distraught when the director first cast Paris Hilton in his new movie Repo! The Genetic Opera she threatened to disown him.

Like many friends, fans and critics alike, Bousman's mum was more than surprised when he announced Hilton as his star.

And he admits he fought the idea of having the socialite in his film for the longest time: "I was adamantly opposed to casting Paris because the first thing people said to me was, 'Think of the press you'll get if you put Paris in it.' I thought, 'Whatever horror cred I have is about to go down the toilet.'

"My mother calls me crying from Kansas City - 'Why did you cast her, that charlatan?' She was very upset.

"My mother logged onto this website and read, 'Paris Hilton caught smoking dope in back alley.' That's not Paris Hilton. The paparazzi took pictures during a break while we were recording the soundtrack and she was drinking a water; the smoke was coming from the musicians smoking cigarettes.

"People spin these stories about her and that's how they know Paris Hilton. My idea of Paris, before I met her, was this really spoiled rich kid who is better than everyone else. As it turns out she was not the person I expected her to be. She was so charming.

"She stayed at the exact same hotel and ate at the same restaurants, and went to the same s**tty bar as all of us. I'm a dive bar kind of guy and she didn't come with an entourage or a single dog. She had just gotten out of her legal trouble so it was important for her to show that she wasn't this person. She really won me over." l

Australian actress Nicole Kidman was terrified of giving birth to her daughter Sunday, but was pleasantly surprised to find the experience "easy."

The Hours star welcomed her first child with husband Keith Urban in July.

And Kidman admits she was extremely worried in the weeks leading up to the birth, but it was her partner who helped calm her fears when the moment finally arrived.

Bestselling Jurassic Park author and filmmaker Michael Crichton has lost his battle with cancer in Los Angeles. He was 66.

Crichton, who also wrote --- thriller Disclosure and co-created hit TV series ER, was 66.

In a statement, the author's representative says, "While the world knew him as a great story teller that challenged our preconceived notions about the world around us, and entertained us all while doing so, Michael Crichton was a devoted husband, loving father and generous friend who inspired each of us to strive to see the wonders of our world through new eyes.

"He did this with a wry sense of humour that those who were privileged to know him personally will never forget."

A family insider tells website MomLogic.com, "Michael's family respectfully asks for privacy during this difficult time."

Crichton was born in Chicago, Illinois but grew up in Roslyn, New York, the son of a journalist who encouraged his writing passion.

He quit studying English at Harvard University to travel through Europe and then returned to Massachusetts to study medicine at Harvard Medical School.

His early novels were written under the pseudonym Jeffery Hudson.

Crichton gave up medicine in the early 1970s and moved to California, where he began directing movies based on his books.

His big break came with 1973 cult movie Westworld.

He almost became an actor in the mid-1970s when director Nicolas Roeg called on him to play the alien David Bowie eventually portrayed in The Man Who Fell to Earth. To date, his only acting role came in 1971's The Andromeda Strain, in which he played an uncredited surgeon.

The author/director starred in his own real-life drama in 2002 when he was tied up and robbed at gunpoint by masked men in his Santa Monica, California home.

Married five times, Crichton leaves behind one child, Taylor.

His bestselling novels and hit screenplays also include Twister, Congo, The First Great Train Robbery and all the Jurassic Park sequels.

As a filmmaker, he directed the movies The 13th Warrior, Physical Evidence, Runaway and The First Great Train Robbery, among others.l

Latest: The death of a special effects technician on the movie set of The Dark Knight was an accident, an inquest has ruled.

A jury at Monday's two-day inquest at Woking Coroner's Court in Surrey, England heard that Conway Wickliffe lost his life during a test run for a scene in the latest Batman film, in which the Batmobile is blown up.

The 41-year-old father-of-two was leaning out of a car while operating a camera when the vehicle crashed on the test track at the QinetiQ site in Surrey in September 2007.

Wickliffe's partner, Dee Chase, is now urging big movie companies to hire health and safety officials to oversee every stunt in a bid to prevent further tragedies.

Chase says, "Warner Brothers (the studio behind The Dark Knight) are a huge multi-million dollar company - why are they cutting corners like this? These guys are under pressure because the director will say he wants something and they have to respond as quickly as possible. It is the culture of the industry and it needs to change."

According to the BBC, bosses at the Health and Safety Executive (Hse) may now bring a prosecution over the incident. l

Comedic actor Steve Carell has reportedly been tapped for a forthcoming sequel to his spy-themed action film Get Smart.

The summer blockbuster's huge commercial success landed Carell a multi-million dollar three-movie deal with studio Warner Bros. last month.

Stone says of the tragic journalist, "We found her to be a vibrant source of energy, life and kindness. In the time she had, she filled it with a big soul."l

Amy Winehouse's husband Blake Fielder-Civil has reportedly been released from jail - and headed straight to rehab.

Fielder-Civil was sentenced to 27 months behind bars earlier this year after he was convicted of causing actual bodily harm (ABH) and perverting the course of justice.

He has been serving his time at Highpoint Prison in Suffolk, England, but is alleged to have struck a deal with prosecutors for an early release.

Online reports claim Fielder-Civil walked free from jail on Wednesday morning - and has checked into a drug treatment centre in Surrey, south east England, in a bid to kick his addiction to narcotics as part of the deal.

Winehouse was not present for her husband's release - she is currently fighting her own health troubles after being treated for a chest infection in London last week.

However, she is expected to visit Fielder-Civil later this week.

A spokesperson for Winehouse was unavailable for comment as WENN went to press. l

Latest: Ivana Trump has brushed off reports her husband Rossano Rubicondi's alleged extramarital affair has caused the couple to split.

Rubicondi, who is currently appearing on the Italian version of reality TV show Survivor in Honduras, was reportedly accused by a fellow contestant of cheating on the socialite while filming the programme.

But Trump, 59, insists the allegations are false, as she awaits the 35-year-old's return from the series to determine the course of their relationship.

In her column for the New York Post's Page Six Magazine, she writes: "Nothing sexual happened. That I know for sure. Rossano is on his way back from Honduras (where he competed in an Italian reality TV show).

"I'm not going to make any other comment until I speak to him... Then I'll make a decision about how to handle the situation."

Trump denied her own infidelity on Tuesday, after joking she had found a new "boyfriend" in 23-year-old model Marius Rusovici while Rubicondi has been away.

Trump and Rubicondi wed in April after dating for six years. l

G*ay rights advocates have slammed long-running TV cartoon The Simpsons after one of the show's popular characters made a homophobic comment.

The Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) have spoken out against the use of the phrase "that's so gay" which was used in a recent Halloween episode aired in the U.S. last week.

The comment was made by Nelson Muntz, voiced by Nancy Cartwright, who bullies the series' character Milhouse Van Houten.

Glsen bosses have demanded that the show's scriptwriters halt any further use of the comment - insisting the negative interpretation of being gay offends homosexuals.

In a statement released to TMZ.com, they say, "Nelson's use of 'that's so gay' in a negative way is not surprising considering that 90 per cent of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth say they hear the term used this way frequently or often at school.

"Nelson should visit ThinkB4YouSpeak.com where he can send an apologetic e-card to Milhouse. Glsen would also welcome Nelson's participation in our next PSA so he can make amends by helping to educate young people about why such language is wrong."

A spokesperson for the show has not commented as WENN goes to press. l

Mamma Mia! composer Benny Andersson has shot down rumours he's working on a sequel to the movie adaptation of the hit stage show.

The summer release, which is based on the songs of Swedish pop stars Abba, has become a major box office smash internationally, grossing more than $559 million (GBP353.7 million) worldwide.

But Abba's Andersson insists Universal Pictures bosses have yet to approach him about a follow-up.

He says, "There is no talk of a sequel. (But they) would like a sequel because they're just flabbergasted at the success - more than anyone, I think."

However, that does not mean Andersson and songwriting pal Bjorn Ulvaeus are not interested in the project if screenwriter Catherine Johnson pens a new plotline: "If she comes up with something, if she's keen on it, then maybe she'll call us."

The 2008 film starred Hollywood actress Meryl Streep and actors Pierce Brosnan and Colin Firth. l

She tell Britain's Hello magazine, "I've been linked to so many guys that I sound like a wanton woman!

"People say, 'Oh, boys must be lining up for you.' It's really not that easy. I suppose guys are either intimidated by me and have their defences up or like to take the mickey (make fun) out of me.

"On set, I'm surrounded by cute, older guys. It's a minefield, to be honest. It's stressful." l

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is enjoying his run in Broadway play Equus - because he can go unrecognised in the busy New York streets.

The actor, 19, is currently living in the U.S. while starring in the live stage show, and he insists the Big Apple provides welcome relief to his native U.K., where he is constantly spotted by fans.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's talent agent has been dragged into a legal battle with a former female assistant - amid accusations of s*exual harassment.

Heather Devlin claims Todd Shemarya created a hostile work environment by exposing her to internet ----, "parading n*aked" around her, and even mocking his Hollywood clients - who also include Leonardo DiCaprio and Pitt's ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.

In a lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday, Devlin further alleges that Shemarya, co-founder of Todd Shemarya Associates (Tsa), stole a pair of vintage Cartier watches sent to clients Pitt and Aniston, while they were married, and gave them to a friend as a wedding present.

The suit also recalls an incident in which Shemarya showed Devlin photos of a nude Pitt from a banned 1997 issue of Playgirl magazine while "ridicul(ing) the size of Pitt's pe**s" and referring to Aniston as "an ugly b**ch".

Devlin maintains she was fired after nine years as Shemarya's assistant, months after he hired his g*ay lover and put him in charge of some of her accounts.

Devlin's lawyer Keith A. Fink tells the New York Post's gossip column Page Six, "Ms. Devlin was exposed to a constant barrage of offensive s*exual, racial and religious comments. Tsa's celebrity clients would usually be the centre of his ridicule."

However, Shemarya has furiously denied the allegations, saying: "These are false accusations. This is a disgruntled employee who I fired about a year ago. And now she's trying to extort money."l

Jerry Bruckheimer has been out and about, talking about the big projects he’s producing for Disney, in particular Pirates of the Caribbean 4 and The Lone Ranger. The guys at Coming Soon caught up with him, and got him to address some, if not all of the rumors surrounding those two projects.

He avoided addressing some of the more pressing rumors around Pirates, such as Tim Burton being considered to direct Pirates 4 or Russell Brand being cast in the film along with Depp, but he did drop some concrete facts about where things stand. For Pirates of the Caribbean 4, they’re just starting work on the script. Elliot and Rossio, who wrote the first three Pirates movies are back and working on the new sequel. It seems they’re also writing The Lone Ranger. Bruckheimer says they’re shooting for a 2012 release, and that they’ll do Pirates 4 in IMAX if they can.

As for The Lone Ranger, Bruckheimer laid some of those Clooney casting rumors to rest. Yes, Johnny Depp is playing Tonto, but Bruckheimer says they still don’t know who will be their Lone Ranger. They’re out to find a director for it first.l

The actress, who played maneater Samantha Jones in the hit U.S. TV series, was the last of the original core cast - which included Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis - to agree to star in the big-screen adaptation.

Hollywood director Steven Spielberg is leading the tributes to Jurassic Park author and filmmaker Michael Crichton, who died in Los Angeles on Wednesday.

Crichton, who also wrote --- thriller Disclosure and co-created hit TV series ER, lost his battle with cancer at the age of 66.

Spielberg helped to adapt Jurassic Park for the big-screen in 1993, and the star, who was a close pal of Crichton's for 40 years, has hailed the author as a great talent.

He says, "Michael's talent out-scaled even his own dinosaurs of Jurassic Park.

"He was the greatest at blending science with big theatrical concepts, which is what gave credibility to dinosaurs again walking the Earth. Michael was a gentle soul who reserved his flamboyant side for his novels. There is no one in the wings that will ever take his place."

ER executive producer John Wells has also expressed his thoughts about the loss of such an "exceptional" man.

He says, "(Crichton) was an extraordinary man. Brilliant, funny, erudite, gracious, exceptionally inquisitive and always thoughtful.

"No lunch with Michael lasted less than three hours and no subject was too prosaic or obscure to attract his interest. Sexual politics, medical and scientific ethics, anthropology, archaeology, economics, astronomy, astrology, quantum physics and molecular biology were all regular topics of conversation." l

Daniel Craig is thrilled Barack Obama has triumphed in the U.S. presidential election - because he believes the African-American politician's victory means the world may be ready for a black James Bond.

The Quantum of Solace star, who received his fair share of criticism when he was named the first 'blonde Bond', believes the role of the secret agent could be played by actors of any race.

And Craig insists Obama's win indicates that audiences are ready for different ethnicities to be represented in the public eye.

He says, "After Barack Obama's victory I think we might have reached the moment for a coloured 007.

"I think the role could easily be played by a black actor, because the character created by Ian Fleming in the '50s has undergone a great deal of evolution and continues to be updated.

"I've always been a fan of Obama. The political ideas that have emerged from his speeches seem to me to be genuine." l

Former James Bond star Sir Roger Moore feels like a father figure to current 007 Daniel Craig - after nominating the blue-eyed hunk for the spy role when he was an unpopular choice.

Moore was among Craig's cheerleaders when critics claimed he wasn't suitable to play to the world's most famous secret agent.

And when the pair finally met at a recent party in London, Moore felt vindicated - and even wanted to look after the star, who had suffered an injured arm on the Bond set.

Moore says, "I supported him all the way through, from the time they were saying he's too short, he's too blond, he's not right for Bond. I said 'Wait and see - he's a hell of a good actor'.

"I was quite surprised when I met him three weeks ago in London... He's a gentle soul, he's really nice. I felt so bad his arm was in a sling I wanted to take him home and dress it for him."l

Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell tried fertility drugs when they first started trying to get pregnant but gave up because it didn't feel natural.

Now expecting twins, Romijn reveals she and her actor husband tried the drug Clomid to boost their chances of starting a family shortly after they wed in July 2007.

She adds, "I desperately wanted kids. I was never a girl who dreamed about what her wedding day would be like, but I've always dreamed about decorating my baby's nursery."

Ellen DeGeneres is devastated with the passing of a ban on same-s*ex marriage in California, calling the amendment a "giant step" backward for the United States.

Just over 52 per cent of those who voted on Proposition 8 opposed May's Supreme Court ruling, which legalised same-s*ex unions in the state.

And the openly g*ay talk show host, who took advantage of the May ruling and married her longtime partner Portia de Rossi in August, insists she is "saddened beyond belief" only unions between heteros*exual couples will be recognised in California.

In a statement released on Wednesday, the star says she, "like millions of Americans, felt like we had taken a giant step toward equality" by electing African-American candidate Barack Obama as president on Tuesday.

But by passing California's Proposition 8, the star believes citizens "took a giant step away". l

"There is a new generation of people who have spoken in our country and have called out for a new president and new administration."
He continued: "This has changed everything and I think every election is going to be different from now on.

"I think this positive reaction has reverberated around the world and it's going to make things beautiful for the future."
He added: "I stayed up all night to listen to his victory speech."

Di Caprio said it was not a difficult decision to work on the project.
"It's a no brainer to me to work with the great Ridley Scott who has made a masterpiece in every genre of cinema," he said.
He said the film was a realistic portrayal of the CIA.
He added: "It says something about the world we live in but it's simultaneously entertaining

Nicole Kidman is refusing to hire a nanny to look after her baby daughter Sunday Rose, even if it jeopardises her acting career.

The Australian star is besotted with the four-month-old - whose dad is Kidman's husband, country star Keith Urban - and can't yet bring herself to leave her alone for a second.

But she admits she will have to let go eventually - or face retiring from acting altogether.

The actress tells Glamour magazine, "I can't bear to be separated from Sunday Rose. That's why I haven't got a daytime nanny, but at some stage I probably will have one." l

. Madonna doesn't do anything small

The Material Girl celebrated Barack Obama's victory Tuesday night with a glittering rally of her own, leading thousands of fans at her concert in San Diego with a rousing introduction to her song "Express Yourself."


In a video posted on YouTube, Madonna claps her hands and declares, "This is a historical evening! ... We are lucky to be sharing it with each other!"
. Other celebrity supporters of Obama echo Madonna's good cheer



Oprah Winfrey, who cried during the celebration in Chicago's Grant Park, told the TV show "The Insider": "I was so, so, so excited and then just sort of a calm came over me. It feels like it actually is kind of real, so it feels great."

Asked what this means for the country, she said, "It means democracy at its finest. It's just the best. We did this. America did this."
George Clooney said in a statement: "I congratulate President-elect Obama on his historic victory, and now it's time to begin unifying the country so we can take on the extraordinary challenges that this generation faces."

Actress Scarlett Johansson, who stumped for Obama throughout his campaign, said the "overwhelming hope that Obama inspires is infectious."
"I've always maintained a strong faith in the power of Obama's positive campaign and am so proud of every citizen who took a stand, participated in the political process and insisted their voices be heard," Johansson said in a statement.

Singer John Mellencamp reflected on the election on his Web site, saying he never thought he'd see the day when "a man of color could be president of the United States. But today I am so proud of America."
Singer Colbie Caillat, who cried when Obama won, said she thinks "our country is in safe hands."
Stars including Lindsay Lohan, Michael Moore and Kanye West posted messages online.
Reacting on her Myspace page, Lohan gushed, "OBAMA IS OUR PRESIDENT!" and said that everyone who voted, "no matter their choice ... should be proud for voting in the first place."
West, whose mother Donda died last November, posted a portrait of the president elect on his blog with the message: "HI MOM, OBAMA WON!"

Meanwhile, director-provocateur Moore responded on his Web site, saying, "Who among us is not at a loss for words? Tears pour out. Tears of joy. Tears of relief. A stunning, whopping landslide of hope in a time of deep despair."



Even more stunning: a concession from John McCain supporter Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who said Wednesday on TV's "The View" that she'll follow Obama's lead
"I will jump in that line and support our president because that is what as an American I believe we should do," said Hasselbeck, who received a fist bump from co-host Whoopi Goldberg

Latest: Philip Seymour Hoffman has backtracked over the possibility he might be playing The Penguin in a new Batman movie - insisting he is not the best actor for the part.

Hoffman is tipped to be the favourite to play the supervillain in the next installment of the caped crusader franchise, but he has yet to be officially signed to the project.

The Oscar-winner recently announced that he would be delighted to take on the role, because he was such a fan of the original comics.

But Hoffman now insists he would prefer to see another actor play the legendary bad guy.

He says, "To be quite honest, I don't know whether I would be a good Penguin. I think I'm more interested in seeing someone else do it." l

Latest: British actress Sienna Miller has confirmed her split from married oil heir and actor Balthazar Getty - criticising the media for making relationships in the spotlight too difficult.

The Alfie star has been romantically linked to Getty since the summer when they were spotted together in Prague in the Czech Republic, on the set of Miller's new movie GI Joe. But the pair was rumoured to have split earlier this month.

The romance sparked a media frenzy and Miller is convinced that the press interest in their relationship added to their problems.

She tells Usmagazine.com, "I'm single at the moment, and I'm completely happy with that. It's nice not to have a relationship that the press constantly want to scrutinise and discuss."

But the star insists she is fine with their decision to part ways, adding, "I'm cool with being on my own." l

British actress Kate Winslet has denied she knowingly wore fur for a recent photoshoot with Vanity Fair magazine - insisting she thought the garment was fake.

The Titanic star s*tripped off for a Catherine Deneuve-inspired shoot, posing provocatively on a sofa wearing nothing but stockings and high heels, with the grey fur throw draped across her shoulders.

Winslet was subsequently criticised by animal rights campaigners, who accuse the actress of glamorising the wearing of real pelts.

But Winslet insists she didn't know the garment was made of genuine fox fur.

Her spokeswoman says, "She thought it was false. There was apparently false fur there and real fur there. And she definitely understood it was false. Kate never wears fur. She's very firm on that."

A representative for Vanity Fair magazine adds, "The fur used in the photograph was real. We thought Miss Winslet was aware of this and we're sorry for the miscommunication." l

The holidays should be green for James Bond. Maybe less so for Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman.





[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



That's the consensus opinion of box office experts asked to weigh in with their picks for the hits—and potential misses—of Hollywood's holiday season, which, no matter what your calendar says, starts today

.

Will Will Smith's Seven Pounds weigh in? Was Beverly Hills Chihuahua just the warm-up act for Bolt?
Let the guessing begin.
Top Five Holiday Hits (Films Listed in Alphabetical Order):
Gitesh Pandya, Box Office Guru:
• Madagascar 2: Escape 2 Africa (opening this weekend) • Quantum of Solace (the new 007 movie, opening Nov. 14) • The Day the Earth Stood Still (sci-fi remake, opening Dec. 12) • Twilight (teen vampire saga based on best-seller, opening Nov. 21) • Yes Man (Jim Carrey high-concept comedy, opening Dec. 19) Jeff Bock, Exhibitor Relations:
• Bedtime Stories (Adam Sandler fantasy comedy, opening Dec. 25) • Bolt (animated dog movie, opening Nov. 21) • The Day the Earth Stood Still • Madagascar 2 • Quantum of Solace Paul Dergarabedian, Media by Numbers:
• Bolt • Madagascar 2 • Quantum of Solace • Seven Pounds (opening Dec. 19) • Twilight High-profile movies that weren't mentioned included: the Kidman-Hugh Jackman epic Australia (opening Nov. 26); Ron Howard's Frost/Nixon (opening Dec. 5)—think Couric/Palin, only with bigger ideas and more Oscar buzz; Cruise's Nazi Germany thriller Valkyrie (opening Dec. 26); and Brad Pitt's age-defying The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (opening Dec. 25).
Does that mean the experts think those films are destined to be this season's Fred Claus? No, not necessarily.
The biggest question mark is Australia. Bock thinks it could sneak into the ranks of the big hits. But Pandya thinks that while it's destined to be an international success, it'll be a tougher sell here.
Dergarabedian just can't tell with Benjamin Button. "How commercial it's going to be, nobody knows," he says.
Chad Hartigan, another analyst for Exhibitor Relations, thinks Seven Pounds might be an underperforming movie for Smith, Hollywood's most bankable star.
Bock isn't sold on Valkyrie's box office prospects—nothing personal against Cruise. Or Frost/Nixon, either.
"Both films may be good, but regardless, they have very limited audiences," Bock said in an email. "Escapism is still the order of the day. And shopping."

"Jurassic Park III" director Joe Johnston has signed a deal to bring the Marvel comic-book hero Captain America to the big screen



.

"First Avenger: Captain America," a World War II-set movie, is scheduled for release in 2011 through Marvel Studios. No writers are on board, but the studio expects to hire shortly.

Created in 1941 by Jack Kirby and Joe Simon for Timely Comics, Captain America is the heroic alter ego of Steve Rogers, who is rejected by the Army for being too sickly and undergoes an experiment that takes him to the pinnacle of human form. Paired with an indestructible shield, he became a symbol of the war effort, in and out of comics.

The character disappeared in the 1950s but was revived during the early era of Marvel Comics. He was reintroduced as part of the all-star Avengers lineup, the absence explained by having him being in a state of suspended animation during a war mission until found by the superteam.

The character's last live-action appearance was in 1990's "Captain America," a cheap indie production that ended up going to straight to video. The movie starred Matt Salinger as the hero, dethawed in modern times to fight his archnemesis, the Red Skull.

Johnston first met with Marvel two years ago. When the two parties clicked, general talks turned into Captain America-specific meetings, with much of the project's current direction resulting from those early conversations.

Kicking off with "Iron Man," Marvel Studios' slate of movies -- including "Thor" and the "Iron Man" sequel -- is building toward an "Avengers" movie set for release in 2011, in which the characters from the films team for one big adventure.

Johnston is in post-production on Universal's retelling of "The Wolfman," starring Benicio Del Toro and Anthony Hopkins.

Movie star-turned-California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is urging the state Supreme Court to overturn the controversial bill that banned g*ay marriage last week.

The Proposition 8 bill was voted in earlier this month, overturning an earlier ruling legalising same-s*ex unions in the state.

In an interview on network CNN on Sunday he said, "It's unfortunate, obviously, but it's not the end. I think that we will again maybe undo that, if the court is willing to do that, and then move forward from there and again lead in that area."

Speaking to g*ay marriage supporters he added, "I learned that you should never ever give up... They should never give up. They should be on it and on it until they get it done."

G*ay unions were legalised in the state in May, which led to a flurry of celebrity weddings including TV host Ellen DeGeneres' marriage to longtime partner Portia de Rossi in August. l

Actor Josh Brolin sparred with his liberal step-mother Barbra Streisand - when she protested his role in new George W. Bush biopic W.

The singer has been an outspoken opponent of Bush throughout his two terms in the White House.

And according to Brolin, Streisand freaked out when he told her he would be playing him in Oliver Stone's movie.

Brolin tells the Times of London, "She said, 'How much are you getting paid? I told her it was a very low fee. She said, 'Then why are you doing it?'"

But the actor insists the legendary star's snub didn't give him second thoughts.

He adds, "She was furious and would not talk to me. I kind of liked that one." l

Actress Jane Fonda and former husband Ted Turner have opened up about their tumultuous marriage the media mogul's new memoir.

In his autobiography, Call Me Ted, the pair both come clean about the events that led to their 2001 divorce.

In one passage, Turner admits he's always been "better in business and sailing than I was in marriage," adding, "Monogamy for me has always been a struggle... My dad told me 'real men run around'."

Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter also contributes to the tome, recalling how Turner turned to him shortly after reading that Fonda was divorcing second husband Tom Hayden.

He writes, "Ted said to me, 'I think I'm going to call that woman up and ask her for a date.'"

Turner writes of his later phone call to Fonda, "She was taken aback. She said she was flattered... but that she needed six months (before she'd be ready to date again). I called her again. I said, 'Hi, it's Ted Turner. The six months are up.'"

The pair enjoyed nearly 10 years of marriage before they split. But Turner admits he's still in love with the star.

He adds, "Jane attempted to maintain her independence. Our crowded schedules took a toll on our relationship...

"I loved Jane very much and still love her to this day."

Fonda reminisces in the book about the pair's memories together, but adds of their divorce: "For Ted, there's a fear of abandonment that is deeper than with anyone I've ever known... He needs constant companionship, and keeping up with him can be exhausting." l

Actress Sienna Miller has been awarded $22,300 in damages from two British tabloid newspapers over claims they breached her privacy.

The Alfie star filed lawsuits against The Sun and the News Of The World over pictures and articles which appeared in the publications over the summer.

She became a target for the paparazzi in June and July after it was revealed she had embarked on a relationship with married oil heir and actor Balthazar Getty - just weeks after splitting from Welsh actor Rhys Ifans.

And a lawyer for News Group Newspapers, which own the publications, has acknowledged that the tabloids "shouldn't have published such information or such photographs".

In a letter to Miller, News Group's lawyer Tom Crone wrote, "On the specific facts and circumstances of this case you had a reasonable expectation of privacy in respect of the information and the photographs that we published. We also accept that we should not have published such information or photographs."

Miller's lawyer Mark Thompson stated that the terms of the out-of-court settlement had been approved by London's High Court.

Thompson added the actress is still seeking various damages against paparazzi photograph agency Big Pictures (UK) Limited - which Miller accuses of waging a "campaign of harassment" against her.

The hearing is expected to start early next year. l

The main suspect in the murders of Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and nephew will remain behind bars on a parole violation while the investigations into the slayings continue.

William Balfour, who was married to the Oscar winning singer/actress' sister Julia, was arrested last month, following the grisly murders, and held by police on a parole violation.

He went before the Illinois State Parole Review Board on Monday to determine whether there was enough evidence to charge him with a violation or murder.

He remains in custody after his current girlfriend claims she saw him with a gun "identical to the gun recovered by the Chicago police near the body of the murdered child" days before the killings, according to the chairman of the Illinois Parole Review Board.

Members of the panel ruled they found "probable cause to keep "Mr. Balfour until December 3" until a full review of the case and evidence against him will be reviewed again. l

Fans of movie star and golf fanatic Samuel L. Jackson will never see him playing golf on the big screen - because he's convinced fairway films are flops.

The Pulp Fiction star is considered one of the world's best celebrity golfers, but he vows he'll never mix business with pleasure.

He says, "Golf is a sport that people participate in. People don't like to watch it on screen unless it's Caddyshack. That's the only one. Who went to see (The Legend of) Bagger Vance? Will (Smith) and Matt Damon's family?

"(Kevin Costner movie) Tin Cup is a romantic comedy and a date movie. If you can make a date movie out of golf, maybe that would work. But those are the only two, Caddyshack and Tin Cup." l

Hollywood actor Colin Farrell is glad he failed an audition for Irish pop group Boyzone - because he wouldn't have "lasted too long" in the band.

Farrell tried out for the boyband in the 1990s while he was a struggling actor in Ireland, but he was rejected during the audition phases for his lack of vocal talent.

Boyzone went on to score a string of chart successes in the U.K., returning last year for a reunion tour.

Farrell eventually landed a role in British drama series Ballykissangel in 1998 and went on to forge a high profile career in Hollywood.

And the star admits he is pleased he was never accepted into Boyzone - because it would have sent his life off on a very different path.

He says, "I don't think I would have lasted in the band too long. Life would have been very different, very different.

"I certainly wouldn't have lasted a reunion I don't think."l

Budding photographer Pitt was commissioned by the publication to take a series of candid shots of his family.

And Jolie insists that although she was pleased with the first set of images Pitt produced, the couple decided some of the photographs were just not suitable for the magazine.

She says, "We'd look at the pictures like art and say, 'This is a really interesting photograph,' but then we'd know better and think about how it was going to be received. So we made it a little more tame than it was." l

Hollywood star Brad Pitt was the victim of a bizarre incident on Monday when a security guard grabbed him and spun him round at the Los Angeles premiere of his latest movie The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button.

Pitt arrived 30 minutes early for the glitzy event at the city's Bruin Theatre, and he was pounced upon hordes of celebrity snappers.

But instead of shielding the heartthrob from the paparazzi's prying lenses, a plainclothes guard turned on Pitt, spinning him around and pulling him backwards, according to People.com.

A confused Pitt then broke free, spoke to the man and waited in an upstairs bathroom for the commotion to subside.

But the star doesn't blame the overzealous bodyguard - insisting the paparazzi were more intrusive than ever.

He tells People.com, "Though they were exceptionally more aggressive than usual breaking through a security barrier and into a private holding area, ultimately (it was) just another day in the life..."

It's not the first time Pitt has been leapt upon at a show - a female fan embraced him and refused to let go at the Venice Film Festival in September 2007. l

Nicole Kidman has paid a gushing tribute to her country musician husband Keith Urban - insisting she found it hard to love until the singer swept her off her feet.

The couple wed in 2006 after Kidman's ten-year marriage to Tom Cruise ended in divorce.

And the Oscar-winning actress, who recently gave birth to daughter Sunday Rose, couldn't hide her personal happiness at the Glamour awards show in New York on Monday - thanking her country star beau for loving her.

She says, "Three and a half years ago a man came along and said, 'I'm going to take you to Tennessee.' And he took me down there and he said, 'I think you deserve to be loved. Let me love you, let me give you a home, and let's make a baby.' So thank you, Keith Lionel."

"I don't believe that you can (have it all). But I believe you can have balance... Three and a half years ago I had a wonderful career, I had two kids, I had movie offers, great directors offering me things, but I wasn't loved." l

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are planning to take their young family on a trip to Ethiopia - to show them how to help people in the Third World.

Jolie and Pitt adopted their three-year-old daughter Zahara from the country in 2005. They have two other adopted children - Maddox, seven, from Cambodia and Pax, four, from Vietnam - as well as three biological children - Shiloh, two, and baby twins Knox and Vivienne.

The couple has already taken the kids to visit Maddox's home country of Cambodia and now they plan to take the whole family to see the work being done in Ethiopia by their charity, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, which is funding an AIDS centre there.

Jolie says, "They'll (the children) be in Ethiopia in a few weeks and they won't have everything they have here, so we show them different worlds."

The actress hopes the experience will teach the youngsters to follow in their parents' philanthropical footsteps.

She adds, "They help buy candy and shoes and water, then take it to the local people, hang out and talk to the kids. They see that the world isn't balanced. Instead of preaching to them, we're showing them and hope that sinks in - and they'll find in themselves a desire to help strike a balance." l

Jennifer Connelly blames her 11-year-old son Kai for turning her back onto meat - because the strict vegan crumbled when she was pregnant with him.

The actress had successfully avoided animal products for many years until she conceived - with ex-partner David Dugan - and the cravings began.

Connelly, who is now married to British actor Paul Bettany, tells Marie Claire magazine, "I'd been vegan for many years, and then all of a sudden, when I was pregnant with Kai, I wanted a turkey burger. That was the end of my being vegan."

Lindsay Lohan is thankful she went to rehab - because now she has a "clear" head.

The Mean Girls star entered a rehabilitation facility three times last year; in January "to take care" of her health, again in May after she was accused of driving under the influence (DUI), and finally in August to confront her drink and drug problems.

She finally left rehab in October 2007 and has since turned her life around.

Lohan tells Harper's Bazaar magazine, "I'm a different person now. I'm happy."

The actress admits feeling lonely before her stints in therapy: "I was going to clubs all the time and it was not okay. I was so alone."

But Lohan has taken responsibility for her downward spiral and is ready to move forward.

She adds, "I did it to myself and I have to deal with the consequences. I'm thankful for what I can take out of it. Now I feel clear."

Hugh Jackman had a very different career in mind when he was a child - the Hollywood star dreamed of becoming a minister.

The Australian actor was brought up in a religious family and considered taking the next step by dedicating his life to the Church.

But the X-Men star eventually realised his calling was to perform on an entirely different stage - and turned his hand to acting.

He says, "My father is very religious so I was brought up in the church. He was converted at a Billy Graham rally (crusade) and he used to take me to these rallies.

"And I do very vividly remember that about age 13 watching somebody on stage doing a talk and thinking, 'I have a very clear feeling that one day I was going to be up on that stage.'

"And for about a year, I thought I was maybe going to be a minister. And then as I got older, I thought, 'I think I just want to be up on that stage. Maybe not in that capacity but in some other capacity'." l

Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch has been sold to an investment firm whose bosses will rename the property in a joint venture with the pop star, according to new reports.

Jackson prevented a foreclosure sale of the California estate when New York-based private equity group Colony Capital agreed to take over his $24.5 million (GBP16.1million) debt on the property in May.

According to Santa Barbara records, the title to Neverland was transferred on Monday to a company called Sycamore Valley Ranch Company LLC.

Sycamore is a joint venture between Jackson and a division of Colony Capital - owner of numerous Las Vegas properties including Red Rock Country Club and the Las Vegas Hilton.

The sale has fuelled reports Jackson has signed on to perform his own headlining show in the city.

According to website TMZ.com, the property will be renamed Sycamore Valley Ranch in effort to revamp its image, tinged by the negative press surrounding Jackson's child molestation trial, which ended in his acquittal in 2005. l

Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan is adamant her relatives approve of her l*esbian relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson - despite her father recently criticising the union.

The Mean Girls star has been romantically linked to the British star since they were spotted kissing and cuddling at a party in Cannes, France earlier this year.

She tells Harper's Bazaar magazine, "It's never really come up as an issue. We're close; we've been through a lot. They're supportive of me whether I'm with a guy or a girl. They're just supportive of me as a person.

"Ali's known Samantha for a really long time. And she's like, 'Whatever it is, I support you. I probably won't ever do what it is you're doing, but I'm happy for you.' Ali's very m*ature. I've told her that it's okay to like a boy or a girl if you're comfortable with it and it's something you believe you want to do. And I told her not to be afraid of who she wants to be."l

Jennifer Aniston has branded her split from ex-husband Brad Pitt "amicable" - and insists she feels "warm and respectful" of the actor.

The couple split in 2005 - but Pitt's current partner Angelina Jolie recently revealed they fell in love on the set of 2005 movie Mr And Mrs Smith.

Aniston blasted Jolie as "uncool" for the revelation - but the former Friends actress has put the pain of the divorce behind her.

Jennifer Aniston insists boyfriend John Mayer has learned not to get personal with the paparazzi after opening up about his late summer split from the former Friends star.

The singer/songwriter confirmed the split while chatting to snappers - and, now he's back with his ex, Aniston insists he has learned his lesson.

She tells Vogue magazine, "Trust me, you'll never see that happen again from that man."

And, as for people who can't believe Aniston and Mayer are a couple, the actress rages, "People need to mind their own business! Did you ever think Claudia Schiffer and David Copperfield made sense?

The Dark Knight’s score, which to Empire’s ears is one of the best, if not the best, of the year, has been disqualified from consideration for next year’s Academy Awards.


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



The executive committee of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Science’s music branch made the decision after failing to be suitably satisfied that the score’s composers, James Newton Howard and Hans Zimmer, were directly responsible for more than 70% of the music.

That’s because – in a show of generosity and solidarity – Zimmer and Howard, who collaborated on the Batman Begins soundtrack, listed three other people as composers on the official cue sheet, the document that specifies every piece of music in the film.

The other three were music editor Alex Gibson, ambient music designer Mel Wesson and composer Lorne Balfe, who were added to the cue sheet primarily, according to Zimmer, to qualify them for royalties.

Despite the fact, though, that the trio reportedly signed an affidavit stating that the score was primarily the work of Howard and Zimmer, the majority of the committee voted that the score should be disqualified.

In a way, we shouldn’t be too surprised – after all, the same issue befell Batman Begins three years ago. But we should be dismayed that such a wonderful score, with its cutting-edge sound design and an instantly iconic Joker cue, won’t be recognised.

To be fair, the debate took up a fair chunk of the music committee’s time, with some members arguing that the score should be included, so hats off to them. And, with the practice of multiple composers on the rise, we’re sure that at some point the rules will change

Michael Moore's next documentary for Paramount Vantage and Overture is taking on a different issue than first stated - it will now cover the global financial crisis says hollywoodreporter


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



The still untitled feature is said to follow an "end-of-the-empire tone" rather than the foreign policy-focused follow-up to "Fahrenheit 9/11" that was originally planned. Even Moore calls if more of a "bookend to 'Roger & Me'" in reference to his breakthrough debut effort nearly two decades ago.

However, with the crisis changing from day to day and a renewed sense of hope thanks to Obama's election, critics are wondering if Moore's style will still hit with audiences by the time it gets released.

Moore is rushing forward with filming at present and the movie is expected to come out as early as the Spring.

del Toro says "The idea came from Gris, and everybody loves his book about it. The original story is far more perverse and spooky and semi-necrophilia vibe to it in certain aspects. Gris certainly has that vein in him, he wants to do this with that original spookiness in it, we are trying to get it going.

He adds that the Jim Henson Company is the behind this film and are currently working on the screenplay. Grimly himself will direct.

Following up one of the best Bond films made with one of the worst, 'Quantum' is nothing less than a crushing disappointment - a barely plotted, poorly filmed, hyper-edited and most of all utterly flat vehicle that commits a crime far worse than even Roger Moore's outlandish last few films - it makes James Bond dull.


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


It's interesting in the way that this new incarnation of Bond is mirroring a pattern created by one of his predecessors, Timothy Dalton, two decades ago. Like Daniel Craig, Dalton came onto a franchise that had become a punch line and in his very strong first effort, "The Living Daylights", delivered a serious and contemporary Bond that still kept many of the hallmarks which made it work (gadgets, naughty humor, exotic locales, elaborate villains, well-filmed action set pieces). His disappointing follow-up "Licence to Kill" however ditched that in favor of a more realistic and smaller-scope story of 007 going off the grid for revenge against a Central-American drug dealer. The end result was a rather generic 80's Joel Silver-style action film that almost sunk the franchise in spite of a few commendable qualities (such as Robert Davi's effective villain).

Just shy of twenty years on a similar situation has occurred, although this time the franchise is in no such economic jeopardy. "Casino Royale" brilliantly brought the Bond film franchise into the 21st century - well cast, smartly written and deftly directed, it ground Bond in a more serious and modern tone but held tight to the character quirks and light touch of male fantasy which made the films work. 'Solace' ditches all that, opting for the already rather common format of action movies this decade - a cold, brutal loner with a tortured past and no personality out for revenge (preferably drawn out across several serialized sequels). It would be fine if he had either a compelling story or emotional arc to follow but in this case he has neither - prompting the film to play out very much like the flat middle act of a much larger film.

The most glaring surface fault is also its most obvious influence - the hyper-kinetic filming & editing style of the Paul Greengrass-directed "Bourne" sequels. Like it or not that film series signature style of sacrificing clarity, character depth and scope for relentless intensity has become a frustratingly copied trend by lazy filmmakers to pull in a Redbull-addicted generation brought up on 'blink and you're dead' FPS video games. The doubly bad news is that the lifting here seems to come from the confusingly shot 'Supremacy' rather than its more cinematically effective follow-up 'Ultimatum' where Greengrass acknowledged a need for wider establishing shots, less jittery camera operators, and cuts of more than two seconds length so we as an audience could follow the action.

DJ Samantha Ronson has angrily defended her girlfriend Lindsay Lohan, after the actress was pelted with powder by an anti-fur protester in Paris over the weekend


Raging Ronson, 31, ranted: 'I'm p***ed at the bag of flour thrown on Lindsay last night. Not because I got powdered down, but because the girl who threw it acted like an animal herself…'

Katie Holmes jetted home to Los Angeles after a recent performance in New York - so she could celebrate her second year of marriage with husband Tom Cruise.

Holmes took off to the west coast after Sunday's matinee performance of her hit Broadway play All My Sons.

The couple reportedly spent a quiet evening at their L.A. home on Monday before the actress had to rush back for her regular Tuesday show.

Cruise and Holmes married on 18 November 2006 in a star-studded ceremony in Italy - to the dismay of critics, sceptical their relationship was a mere publicity stunt.

In an interview last year, Cruise said of the lavish wedding, "As big as it was from the outside, it was a very personal experience and something obviously I'll never forget."

The pair was reportedly joined by their two-year-old daughter, Suri, and Cruise's adopted children from his marriage to Nicole Kidman - Isabella, 15, and Connor, 13 - to mark the event.l

Da Vinci Code director Ron Howard had to shoot the movie's forthcoming prequel using imitations of the Catholic churches in the storyline - after the Vatican banned him from all of its holy buildings.

The first movie's portrayal of the Catholic church angered the religion's heads, who were in no mood to cooperate when Howard headed to Rome, Italy this year to shoot an adaptation of author Dan Brown's 2000 book Angels + Demons, which is set in the Vatican City.

As a result, Howard has been forced to used camera trickery and substitute locations.

He reveals, "We've had problems filming in Catholic Churches. We just weren't allowed anywhere near them." l

Teen star Miley Cyrus has launched an attack on the internet hacker who broke into her YouTube account and falsely claimed she had died in a car crash.

A video was uploaded onto Cyrus' official page on the video sharing website on Sunday, telling fans she was the victim of a drink driving accident.

The allegations upset her friends and family, who quickly denied the claims - blaming the incident on an internet hacker.

But the 15-year-old insists she's grown accustomed reading fictional stories written about her.

Pretending to be unaware of the event, she jokes with TV reporters on E!, "What happened? Did I die, like, bungee jumping, getting bulldozed, what happened this time? I got hit by a drunk driver! Ok, good. Wait. What? On my Web page? No. My Web page got hacked?"

When details were cleared up, Cyrus admitted she was "ticked" at the culprit behind the computer screen.

She added, "I'm gonna, like, smack 'em!" l

Michael Jackson is too sick to travel to London to testify in a lawsuit with an Arab sheikh, according to his attorney.

The singer's lawyer Robert Englehart told the High Court in London on Tuesday that Jackson is awaiting test results on a mystery illness and wants to give evidence via video link from the United States.

Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa of Bahrain is suing the Thriller hitmaker for $7 million (GBP4.6 million) - claiming Jackson reneged on an agreement to produce an album, autobiography and stage play.

Jackson denies the claims and insists any monies given to him were as a gift.

Judge Nigel Sweeney has now adjourned the case until Thursday to allow time for medical experts from both legal teams to discuss Jackson's condition.

However, if no satisfactory outcome is reached, Jackson could be forced to appear in court in person. l

The former Saturday Night Live star beat six opponents to take the Democratic nomination with 66 per cent of the public vote in the state's primary election in September.

Coleman's spokesman tells the New York Post, "It is highly presumptuous for Mr. Franken to undertake such a visit when his real purpose appears to be fundraising and gaining partisan advantage from non-Minnesotans."

Former James Bond star Sir Sean Connery is delighted he will officially open Donald Trump's $1.5 billion (GBP1 billion) golf course resort in Scotland - because it will boost the country's image around the world.

U.S. real estate tycoon Trump has been given the go ahead by the Scottish government to build 500 new houses, 950 holiday homes, a hotel and a world class golf course at the Menie Estate in Aberdeenshire.

And Scottish actor Connery is lined up for the official launch - he will be given the membership number 007 and will be the first person to tee off on the course.

He says, "During tough economic times, this is a major vote of confidence in Scotland's tourist industry and our ability to rise to the challenge.

"I look forward to seeing a new gem in the north-east that is good for Aberdeenshire and good for Scotland."

Trump's proposal faced tough opposition from locals worried about possible damage to the environment, and it was originally rejected by Aberdeenshire Council before being approved by the national government.

And Connery is delighted with the reversal, adding: "It's exactly this kind of swift decision making and focus on boosting the economy and local job opportunities which shows that Scotland is an excellent place to do business." l

Love has retracted the statement - but reveals she does battle depression.

An Arab sheikh who is suing Michael Jackson wanted to resurrect the King of Pop's career by writing songs for him.

Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad Al Khalifa claims he's owed a $7 million (GBP4.6 million) advance on an album and autobiography deal that Jackson never honoured.

He alleges he paid for a recording studio for the Thriller star and sent his own compositions for Jackson to record.

Al Khalifa, the son of the King of Bahrain, also claims he spent $2.2 million (GBP1.5 million) for Jackson to produce a song in aid of the victims of 2005's Hurricane Katrina - but he failed to turn up for the final recording session.

A version of one of the sheikh's songs he wrote for Jackson is expected to be played in court.

The pair became friends when Jackson stayed in Bahrain for six months after he was cleared of child abuse charges in 2005.

Al Khalifa claims he had a deal with the singer to produce an album, autobiography, and a stage play. He also alleges he gave Jackson financial support, paying his living and travel expenses during the visit.

But the Billie Jean hitmaker denies the claims, insisting the agreement was not valid and that Al Khalifa's case is based on "mistake, misrepresentation and undue influence".

The London trial continues. l

Britney Spears' comeback is bittersweet - because the star feels "no excitement, no passion" for singing after her infamous breakdown.

The star was hospitalised twice earlier this year and lost custody of her sons Sean Preston, three, and two-year-old Jayden James after a series of public meltdowns, including a headline-grabbing incident when she shaved her head.

Speaking in new MTV documentary, Britney: For The Record, the singer says, "I have really good days, and then I have bad days. Even when you go to jail you know there's the time when you're gonna get out.

"But in this situation, it's never ending. It's just like Groundhog Day every day."

The star's fortune is being kept under indefinite control by father Jamie as part of a co-conservatorship agreement with the courts - but Spears is wary that those closest to her are stifling her creativity.

She continues, "I think it's too in control. If I wasn't under the restraints I'm under, I'd feel so liberated. When I tell them the way I feel, it's like they hear but they're really not listening."

And Spears, who is enjoying success in the U.S. and U.K. with new single Womanizer, is convinced she is still paying for the breakdown she suffered in the public eye.

She adds, "If you do something wrong in your work, you can move on, but I'm having to pay for a long time. I never wanted to become one of those prisoner people. I always wanted to feel free."

And even though her "weird" life is all she's known, Spears didn't realise how famous she was until her breakdown.

She adds: "I think I've learnt my lesson now and enough is enough." l

Soul superstar Prince is facing legal action from a perfume company after allegedly failing to fulfil duties to promote a scent named after his 2006 album 3121.

Fragrance manufacturer Revelations is suing the Purple Rain icon for breach of contract, claiming the singer refused to commit to promotional activities to which he and his label Universal Music Publishing Group had agreed.

In a suit filed at New York's Supreme Court, Revelations reportedly signed a deal with the music label that would see them receive 50 per cent of the profits of the perfume's sales in exchange for arranging for the star to take part in promotional campaigns.

In the lawsuit, Revelations state: "Since July 2007, despite repeated attempts by Revelations there have been virtually no communications from anyone who could commit to or coordinate any promotional efforts by Prince."

However, Universal refuse to accept the claims, responding in a statement that the company's accusations are "completely without merit".

This is the second legal battle Prince has faced this month - he was ordered to pay $58,000 (GBP36,700) for using the services of a video editor after he was sued by the technician for unpaid wages. l

Brooke Shields is baffled by claims her TV show Lipstick Jungle has been cancelled - because no-one has told her yet.

Internet reports last week (begs10Nov08) suggested the plug had been pulled on the NBC drama series, because of falling ratings.

But Shields insists she still has a job.

She tells Usmagazine.com, "It's not true. They're not breaking down the sets. We're still working. We still have more to do, so it's erroneously presented that we've been cancelled, thank God.

"Our bosses are saying, 'You're not cancelled, don't worry. We're just trying to figure out how to make this make sense'."

She adds that her bosses at NBC have been inundated with mail from fans desperate to keep the show on the air: "It's been insane. I thinking that the public outcry has been crazy, and it's kind of wonderful."

And she is hopeful the show can be saved - if viewers start watching the show when it's first aired, rather than taping it and watching it later. Shields explains, "I actually am (optimistic). I mean, we're basically No. 1 if you look at DVR. And you look at all that. So the public is watching it.

"The problem that they have is it's not the same day live. They just need to figures out how to reconcile advertisers' money because the advertisers don't want you fast forwarding commercials."

Co-star Kim Raver, meanwhile, reveals show bosses are meeting next week (begs24Nov08) to discuss its future: "I think on Monday there are emergency meetings as to what's going to go on. But I know the executives are really pushing it and believe in it."l

And at a press conference in London to promote the movie, Jolie recalled the passion and dedication of her own mother Marcheline Bertrand, who died of cancer in 2007.

Fighting back the tears, Jolie said, "She was very much Christine Collins. She was really sweet and was never angry - she couldn't swear to save her life. But when it came to her kids, she was really fierce and so this is very much her, her story.

"She was the woman I related to, who had that elegance and strength through just knowing what was right."

Jolie is already being tipped for an Oscar-nomination at next year's ceremony after she wowed critics with her moving performance in the film. l

Pop trio The Cheetah Girls have been axed from the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York next week following singer Adrienne Bailon's nude photos hoax scandal, according to Internet reports.

Sources tell PerezHilton.com the girls have been uninvited to the big parade, which will he headlined by Miley Cyrus.

Bailon hit the headlines last week (ends14Nov08) after claiming nude shots of her had been leaked online without her consent. The Cheetah Girls star's sacked publicist later revealed the incident was a publicity stunt.

She claimed her laptop was stolen in New York and snaps showing the star posing provocatively for the camera subsequently appeared online, but her ex-spokesman, Jonathan Jaxson, has confessed he and his former client concocted the leaked photo story

in an effort to boost the singer's profile.

A Thanksgiving Day Parade insider tells the website, "The girls were scheduled to be in the parade and perform, but after Adrienne's recent photo incident, organisers didn't think it would be appropriate to have her at a family-oriented event."l

Britney Spears says she 'totally lost herself'


. Britney Spears has spoken out about why she decided to divorce ex-husband Kevin Federline


."I didn't really wanna think about the reality of it," she revealed in sneak previews of her documentary, Britney: For The Record
"I never faced it. I just ran. He started to do an album for himself and he started to do things for himself, and I just never saw him any more


The Womaniser singer also addressed her well-chronicled breakdown after her two-year marriage to the former back-up dancer disintegrated.
"When it ended, I felt so alone. I had totally lost my way. I lost focus. I lost myself."
And the 26-year-old pop star admitted that some of the people she allowed into her life weren't the types she should be hanging out with. "I had let people into my life that were just bad people," she said.
"You're so busy you don't see what's going on. You don't have time to stop and think. It's important to have good people around you. My trust has been really battered. Sometimes it can get kinda lonely. I let certain people into my life that were just bad people…because I was lonely. I really paid the consequences for that. Big time."
And Britney blames the constant media presence surrounding her for changing her life - for the worse.
"I used to be a cool chick. But I feel like the paparazzi has taken that away from me - like, the way I used to live my life. I used to be a cool chick but I'm not any more," she said.
. The fly-on-the-wall documentary is set to show on Sky1 on December 1 at 8pm

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Miley Cyrus may have already closed Disneyland down for an early celebration of her Sweet 16 birthday, but that was just the beginning of the celebration for the Disney star. Miley's dad, Billy Ray Cyrus, may have gotten his daughter the best possible gift for a young singing sensation and it's not a new Mercedes

[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



"No, she didn't want a Mercedes, she wanted a recording studio," Billy Ray told Access Hollywood's 2008 American Music Awards guest correspondent Quddus Sunday night. "She just wanted a place to record there at the house. She's been writing a lot of songs a lot of really great material."


And Miley won't be the only singer in the house spending some time in the new studio -- at least according to dad.


"It's a great place for us to get up there and work out some tunes and sing," Billy Ray continued. "We both love doing harmonies and we could just jump in there and make all kinds of music and be real creative."


.As for Miley, she couldn't be happier


"It's gonna be dope! I'm so stoked!" Miley told Access on Sunday, which was also the "Hannah Montana" star's actual birthday. "I think I get it tomorrow. I think it gets like all put in."


Billy Ray may have his sights set on logging some hours behind the mic too, but not if Miley has anything to say about it.


"He's not touching it, he's not touching it! It's mine," Miley said. "It's in my room. No one's touching it but me. They'll ruin it."


As for the rumors of a Mercedes, Miley said needs a little more time before she gets behind the wheel.


"I don't even have my license or anything so it'd be kind of like dumb to get one and just let it sit," Miley added. "I'd like to wait until I'm more ready for the road, cause I don't know if the roads are ready for me yet!"

As Mickey Rourke has made the rounds to promote The Wrestler, he's also happily talked up the potential of Sin City 2, which he says he's ready for whenever Frank Miller is. It's no surprise, then, that Miller too is ready to jump back on board. During an interview in London for The Spirit, Miller had a big announcement for IGN about his next project.

"Sin City 2 is written. It's mainly a matter of working out the details of the production. I'm hoping to do it with Robert Rodriguez again in the same circumstances that we did the first one, and we could be shooting as soon as April."

That detail about making the movie with Rodriguez under the same circumstances as the first seems to be the sticking point. Rodriguez quit the Directors Guild of America in 2005 when they refused to recognize both him and Miller as the directors of Sin City. Rodriguez has kept working since then, but might that trouble not be worth revisiting? I doubt that'll be the case-- Sin City 2 will probably be happening at some point, at long last. I'm just not getting my hopes up until sets get built and people start showing up for work.l

Actress Alyssa Milano has filed for a restraining order against an alleged stalker after he reportedly tried to break into her home on two occasions.

The Charmed star filed the petition in Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday claiming Jeff Turner, 54, has made frequent attempts to contact her over a two year period, including trying to enter her L.A. home without permission.

According to E! News, the documents accuse Turner of being an "obsessed and mentally unstable fan" who has made statements "indicating that unless restrained the conduct is very likely to continue".

Milano also asks for the restraining order to prevent Turner having contact with her immediate family, and that he must stay at least 100 yards from her and her home at all times.

A L.A. court hearing to decide if the order will be granted is set for 21 January.l

?With both Taylor Swift and Britney Spears releasing new albums, it's time we thought about teen idols, doncha think


Who doesn't love a teen idol? After all, they're so young! And as we age and slowly become decrepit, we look back at our youth and wonder at the innocence of it all. For the most part, I tried to stick with performers who were actual teenagers when they inspired their peers. However, Davy Jones was clearly a bit older when he swooned Marcia Brady's heart and he is the very definition of a teen idol, as was David Cassidy. These days, we're much better at making sure our teen idols are teenagers. Or at least were teenagers. Funny thing is they eventually grow up--like Britney. And develop into fine, fine citizens of the world. Or not.


Anyhow ranking them seems a little silly. I know from past experience that many of you dear readers will complain about someone's position on the list. I sympathize. If I woke up tomorrow to do this ranking system it would come out differently. There are no hard, fast rules here. Just me typing a name out and thinking that it looks nice in that spot. Or someone's got to be cut from this list. And since most of the people appearing on this list didn't get back to me about some "bonus" issues, well, we'll just let karma and fate and my accountant settle things once and for all.


No matter how you feel about these people, please remember to brush your teeth at least twice a day and stay away from those sugary snacks. Wheat Thins are in! And careful with that cellphone. Who knows if it really causes brain cancer? I'd hate to be on the wrong side of that argument. Which is why I prefer the U.S. Mail. Write a letter to your friends instead.

25) 98Degrees: I remember when a friend of mine was telling me about these guys. His daughters were really into them. But he kept calling them 38 Degrees and I kept wondering what was the significance of being six degrees above freezing.

Tiffany: We just featured Tiff in our "Where Are They Now?" column and she's still out there remaking herself as a danceclub diva. But back in the 1980s she was the girl next door singing at the mall, raking in the money and making you wonder why your band couldn't get that gig. After all, you didn't need Tommy James covers, you'd written an entire concept album called The Mind Of Walter.


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


23) [Brandy: I went looking to find out more about this wonderful singer and came across this information: "She is the sister of singer and actor William Raymond Norwood and a cousin of blues singer Bo Diddley and rapper Snoop Dogg." Is this true? If so, is everyone in the music business related? I've heard we're each other's brother and sister, but this is taking things too far.

22) New Kids On The Block: These kids were huge in their day and these days they can't even get a reality TV show, can they? I'm told they released a new album this year. Did anyone notice? I'm told the album debuted at #1 on the charts and has gone Gold. But who bought it? Teens? Fully grown adults who remember them back when? Who are these people?

21) Frankie Lymon: His life was tragic. "Why Do Fools Fall In Love?" guaranteed him success and then his voice changed and the people who managed him weren't very good to him and he was introduced to heroin and he died of an overdose at 25. Sometimes success isn't exactly success. Hey, Artie Lange, keep an eye on yourself (we went to high school together, this is true!)

20) Shaun Cassidy: His amazing version of "Da Doo Ron Ron" remains one of pop music's all-time classics and certainly everyone should own a copy. If you don't, do not pass Go, do not collect $200 and go directly to jail!

19) Debbie Gibson: Deborah to us now. And recently featured in my "Where Are They Now?" column. She was the cleanest, most wholesome of the lot and then she poses in Playboy to shatter our image of her and to promote an album called Naked. You expect certain folks to do these things, but not our Little Debbie! (Great snack food, too.)

18) Ricky Nelson: From The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet to more than 50 Top 100 Hits to "Garden Party" to siring two sons who would go on to ‘80s rock fame as Nelson, Ricky had done it all. He set the standard for others and yet never quite got the respect that many other less successful artists received. He should've filed a petition!

17) N Sync: I guess any band with Justin Timberlake and Lance Bass should be considered a "Supergroup" of sorts. I mean, even I've heard of them and I wouldn't know these guys from Backstreet Boys, who I'm ranking higher because they have a better name, or 98 Degrees, who I ranked lower because of their lamer name. It's not an exact science, folks.

16) LeAnn Rimes: It's a shame she grew up because she made a great teenager. But we all knew it was bound to happen. We saw it happen with Alyssa Milano. So there was previous proof. She's currently 26! And she continues to have success--proving she wasn't just some teen flash-in-the-pan, but a force of a nature.

15) Silverchair: I've already been taken to task for not realizing that these guys still had a career going after their first initial success. Damn. I should've known something was up when I saw they worked with Van Dyke Parks. That's not someone you call upon when you want a hit. That's who you call when you want prestige and to sell no records whatsoever. Unless you're the Beach Boys, then you call him because you want to get weird--and annoy Mike Love.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


14) Hanson: Who didn't think these guys were the best? They always looked uncomfortable and awkward and you figured the little drummer boy in the back would eventually become a terror. They had to know that "MmmBop" wasn't going to help them be taken seriously. Catchy tune. Big hit. But it's kind of like farting on your first date. Everyone remembers, but not everyone is impressed.

13) Backstreet Boys: Given the 13th position strictly because I like their name. They've sold over 120 million albums but not one of them to me or anyone I know and I assume that most of those albums--CDs?--are now sitting in a landfill somewhere alongside my old computer and my Atari 2600. Damn, I miss that thing.

12) Jonas Brothers: I've been to Wyckoff, New Jersey, so there's a chance that I once ran into these guys when they were little tykes probably trying to run me over with their tricycles. These days, they could buy and sell me. I just hope these talented young men are putting away their money into smart, retirement plans because even though right now the horrors of old age may seem to be in the distant future it will come sooner than they think. But, hey, for now, let's celebrate!

11) Taylor Swift: Maybe Joe Jonas can dump her in 27 seconds on the phone, but just for that we're putting her one spot ahead of those guys--to teach them a lesson! We here at List Of The Day will not stand for guys breaking up with girls over the phone. That's what the mail is for!

10) Menudo: What I liked about this group was how you got kicked out after you got too old. It didn't matter what you had contributed, it was time to move on. Imagine if we could do that to all those old, senile high school teachers who keep reading from the same yellowed notes year after year. Or to the mail delivery person who no longer can remember which box is which and keeps giving my mail to the neighbors. Forced retirement at age 17 might seem a bit extreme, but reality burns sometimes.

9) Donny And Marie: She was a little bit country and he was a little bit rock n' roll, and we do mean a little bit. These two had their own variety show that if I remember correctly was on Friday nights, which served as a reminder that you were HOME on a Friday night. They had so many teeth there should've been a dental inquiry.

8) Lulu: I'm including her because of her name. It's a great one. And she was a teen star. And I'm figuring about 3 per cent of my reading public remember her. And the rest will just ignore this entry and move on to the one about Michael Jackson or maybe Avril. Our attention spans are like that.

7) Tanya Tucker: These days young ones are so much more commonplace but back in the 1970s, it was always as if they had "blue laws" stopping youth from happening. Tanya took over the country world with "Delta Dawn" at 13 and "Would You Lay With Me (In A Field Of Stone)" was among her hits that caused people to raise their eyebrows and wonder where the world was headed. They would've shuddered to learn about Gangsta Rap, that's for sure.

6) Michael Jackson: Michael wasn't even a teen when he started his career. He had so much of a head start on everyone else it practically wasn't fair. That it turned out he had actual talent must've been a surprise to everyone. I mean, when a kid is nine, you can't map out what he'll be doing at 20 or 30. Weathermen can't even figure out what's going to happen in three days!

5) David Cassidy: Another one of these guys who was a little old by today's standards. But he had that show--The Partridge Family--and maybe he wasn't always crazy about performing on the show but I'm pretty sure Willie Aames would've killed for the opportunity to perform regularly, as his band only got to perform once on Eight Is Enough, which was a show that starred Dick Van Patten, an absolutely legend here at Y! Music.

4) Avril LaVigne: She made skater kids go mainstream and took the punk she found at the mall and went for it. I don't imagine she'll ever be teaming up with the guys from Fear or Black Flag, but then who knows? Weirder things have happened. And often do--if you live long enough.

3) Miley Cyrus: I can't get over how much more teenager is left in this girl. It seems like she's been popular forever. I can barely remember a world where she wasn't dominating the lunch box market. But then I can barely remember where I put my shoes.

2) Britney Spears: Her songs have always been catchy. Which when you're performing pop music really helps. And she's been controversial, which when you're performing pop music really helps. And she likes attention, which when you're performing pop music really helps. And we here at Y! Music really like her too, which when you're performing pop music really helps.

1) Davy Jones: This is where my own bias has to show. It's impossible to really determine a #1. So, considering his A-1 performance of "Girl" on The Brady Bunch and his agreement to attend the prom with Marcia, well, what a swell guy. He did attend the prom with her, didn't he?

Oprah Winfrey



Birthplace: Kosciusko, Mississippi
Birthday: January 29, 1954




By CARYN ROUSSEAU, Associated Press Writer Tue Dec 9, 6:24 AM PST
When it comes to her weight, Oprah Winfrey has always been straightforward.


The talk show queen continues the honesty, saying in the January issue of "O" magazine out Tuesday that she now weighs 200 pounds and has "fallen off the wagon" when it comes to healthy living.


"I'm mad at myself," Winfrey writes in an article provided early to The Associated Press by Harpo Productions.


"I'm embarrassed," she writes. "I can't believe that after all these years, all the things I know how to do, I'm still talking about my weight. I look at my thinner self and think, `How did I let this happen again?'"


In the piece, Winfrey, 54, details her recent struggles with an out-of-balance thyroid and how the condition made her develop "a fear of working out." She says she's added 40 pounds to her frame since she weighed 160 pounds in 2006.


"Yes, you're adding correctly; that means the dreaded 2-0-0," Winfrey writes. "I was so frustrated I started eating whatever I wanted -- and that's never good."


Winfrey also writes that her goal is no longer to be thin; instead, she wants to be strong, healthy and fit. She hopes to get started with her upcoming "Best Week," starting Jan. 5 with an episode of "The Oprah Winfrey Show" during which she is expected to talk candidly about her weight.


Winfrey famously wheeled a wagon loaded with fat onto the set of her talk show in 1988 to represent a 67-pound weight loss while wearing a pair of size 10 Calvin Klein jeans. She had lost the pounds with a liquid protein diet.


"I had literally starved myself for four months -- not a morsel of food," Winfrey recalled in 2005. "Two hours after that show, I started eating to celebrate -- of course, within two days those jeans no longer fit!"


Winfrey's weight has yo-yoed to the delight of the tabloid press ever since. She weighed as many as 237 pounds and by late 1990 admitted she had regained most of the 67 pounds, saying "I'll never diet again."


In 1994, she finished the Marine Corps Marathon and by 1996 hired personal trainer Bob Greene, saying her roller-coaster weight saga was over.


But now, 20 years since the Calvin Klein jeans episode, Winfrey finds herself tipping the scales again, telling AP Television last week that she has yet to chose a gown for President-elect Barack Obama's inaugural ball next month.
"I had a dress on the vision board, but I'm not sure that's gonna fit," Winfrey said. "So I have to work on something else."


In the latest "O" magazine article, Winfrey writes that she hit rock bottom when she wanted to skip out on an April 26 taping with Cher and Tina Turner in Las Vegas
"I felt like a fat cow," Winfrey writes. "I wanted to disappear."


Winfrey's weight and height put her body mass index at 31.8, which is obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC says people who are obese are "at higher risk for chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes and high cholesterol."


It seems Winfrey is aware of the health risks, inviting both Greene and Dr. Mehmet Oz to her show during the first week of January, along with spirituality experts, --- therapists and financial expert Suze Orman


Winfrey also is expected to discuss her weight on her XM satellite radio station's "The Gayle King Show" on Jan. 5 and will host interactive live Web casts at Oprah.com the week of Jan. 12 to 16 every night at 9 p.m. EST.


Winfrey, an admitted food addict, sounds almost apologetic in her article.


"I definitely wasn't setting an example," she writes. "I was talking the talk, but I wasn't walking the walk. And that was very disappointing to me."

1. Britney Spears. Britney is back! Better than ever? That's debatable, but she has certainly solidified a few more years in the spotlight thanks to her trophy haul at the VMAs, the release of her critically-acclaimed "Circus," and that addictive MTV documentary ... which surprisingly had us sympathizing with the imprisoned pop tart for the first time in 10 years

Bacon, his wife and a prominent Wall Street economist are the latest people to have lost money on investments connected to accused swindler Bernard Madoff, according to media reports. (Mike Cassese/Reuters)




Reuters (Reuters) - A prominent Wall Street economist, Hollywood actor Kevin Bacon and his wife are the latest people to have lost money on investments connected to accused swindler Bernard Madoff, according to media reports.


Economist Henry Kaufman lost several million dollars, which he had in a brokerage account with Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities for more than five years, the Wall Street Journal said, citing Kaufman in an interview on Tuesday.


The president of financial consulting firm Henry Kaufman & Co said his Madoff loss was no more than a couple of percent of his entire net worth and immaterial to his financial well-being, the paper said.


Kaufman became known for correctly forecasting higher inflation and interest rates when he was chief economist with Salomon Brothers in the 1970s and 1980s, when he acquired the moniker "Doctor Doom."


Bacon and his actress wife, Kyra Sedgwick, also lost money with Madoff, the New York magazine said on its website on Tuesday, citing Bacon's representative, Allen Eichorn.


Henry Kaufman and Kevin Bacon could not be immediately reached for comment.


Madoff is accused of running a purported $50 billion, global Ponzi scheme in which earlier investors were paid off with investments from newer clients.


Scores of wealthy people, banks, universities and charities all over the world are claiming to be victims of massive fraud, though the exact amount of money lost is not yet known in what could be the largest fraud in Wall Street history.

This Feb. 24, 2008 file photo shows John Travolta and Kelly Preston on the red carpet during the 80th Annual Academy Awards, held at Kodak Theater in Hollywood, California. Travolta's teenage son has died after injuring himself at the actor's vacation home. Police spokeswoman Loretta Mackey says 16-year-old Jett Travolta hit his head in a bathtub Friday Jan. 2, 2009. She said he was declared dead at Rand Memorial Hospital on Grand Bahama Island

NASSAU, Bahamas - John Travolta's teenage son, Jett, died in the Bahamas after falling ill and hitting his head at his family's vacation home, police said Friday. A house caretaker found Jett, 16, unconscious in a bathroom late Friday morning. He was taken by ambulance to a Freeport hospital, where he was pronounced dead, according to a statement from chief police superintendent Basil Rahming

The teenager had last been seen going into the bathroom on Thursday and had a history of seizures, according to the statement. Police said they are planning an autopsy to determine the cause of death

Another police spokeswoman, Loretta Mackey, said Jett apparently hit his head on the bathtub

A spokeswoman for Rand Memorial Hospital in Freeport said she could not release any information because of privacy concerns

Jett was the oldest child of Travolta and his wife, actress Kelly Preston, who also have an 8-year-old daughter. The family arrived on a private plane Tuesday and had been vacationing at their home in the Old Bahama Bay resort community

"The Travolta family has become like family to us at Old Bahama Bay and we extend our deepest sympathies to them," said Robert Gidel, president of Ginn Resorts, the property's owner

"Yesterday was the worst day of his life. Today is probably equally as bad, and if not, it's the second worst day of his life.


"John is recognizing the outpouring of support he has got from both the U.S. and the world. He can feel the love and he says it makes him stronger and hopefully it allows him to reconcile.


"He is undergoing the pain any father would if they lost his son. Generally a son buries his father, and John thought that would be the way it would go with Jett, not the other way around.


"He is in shock. He is emotionally distraught. He is going through many different feelings of disbelief and anger. It's going to take a while for him to feel good again. This is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to him and he needs to go through a process of healing. John and Kelly are suffering total misery. They were so close to their son. This is hard to accept.

"He had set a vacation for his employees and friends. Forty-nine adults and their children were coming here [to the Bahamas] from Jan. 2nd to 4th. We were all so excited to spend some days with John. We were on the plane and we had no idea, and then we landed and we found out. Every year he holds a party for friends and employees and this year he had the idea to fly us all to his condo. We were planning to hang out on the beach, go for boat rides and spend time with the family.


Us: Have John and Kelly spent time with anyone since everyone arrived?


Ossi and McDermott: "John and Kelly have been pretty much locked away.


"We are staying here until John leaves. The autopsy should be on Monday.


Us: How is Jett's 8-year-old sister, Ella Bleu, taking it?


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



Ossi and McDermott: "John broke the news to Ella. She is heartbroken. She is in disbelief, but it is starting to sink in. She has been asking where her brother is. She was so close to Jett. The whole family were so close. They went everywhere together. If John made a movie, they were all there with him.


Us: It's been reported that Jett was left alone for several hours before being discovered. Can you clarify the timeline?


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


Ossi and McDermott: "Jett was not left alone. He had a nanny present at all times. The nanny was sleeping close to Jett's room. There was a baby monitor, a chime on the door so it was known when Jett was going in and out. He was completely supervised. The nanny found him.


Us: Is it true that Jett died in John's arms?


Ossi and McDermott: "Jett may have still been alive when John administered CPR, and then the EMT took over. Jett was pronounced dead at the hospital. I like to believe John had a chance to say goodbye. He may have died in his dad's arms. I am not certain."


Us: It's been said Jett had a history of seizures. How often did he have them?


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


Ossi and McDermott: "I am not confident to talk about that. I know he had a history, which of course warranted the extra attention."


Us: You obviously knew Jett well. What was his personality like?


Ossi and McDermott: "He was a wonderful boy. He had physical limitations, but when he looked in his dad's eyes, the love was tangible. When he grabbed onto his dad, he did not want to let him go."

EXCLUSIVE: Grandmother: Jett Travolta "Was the Light Of Our Lives"



Kelly Preston's mom, Linda Carlson, opened up to Usmagazine.com about the Friday death of her grandson, Jett.

"I am devastated," Carlson told Us through tears.

"He was the light of our lives," she added.

Jett died Friday morning from after he slipped and hit his head on the bathtub or toilet -- or both -- at his family's vacation home in the Bahamas, according to John Travolta's lawyer and close friend, Michael McDermott, and family attorney, Michael Ossi. It's unclear if a seizure caused Jett's fall, or if he had a seizure after the impact.


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


The lawyers told TMZ.com that a manager from the hotel where the vacation home is located was first to the scene, and he helped Jett's nanny administer CPR.

(Jett was said to suffer from autism, which Travolta denies, instead claiming he was inflicted with Kawasaki Syndrome. The 16-year-old had an around-the-clock nanny, was watched over by baby monitor and his bathroom door chimed every time it was opened, TMZ reported.)

Travolta arrived and took over CPR shortly after for a "substantial period of time...until EMT came and took over."

Ossi told Us in a statement: "Attempts were made to revive him, but he died at the scene. Jett...had a history of seizures.


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


Jett was then taken to Rand Memorial Hospital in Freeport, Basil Rahming, the Chief Superintendent of the Grand Bahama Police, confirmed to Us Friday.

McDermott calls Preston and Travolta's pain over their son's death unimaginable and unquantifiable.

An autopsy will be performed Monday. There will be a local showing on Tuesday, and then the body will be flown to Ocala, Florida, to be buried.

Preston and Travolta are also parents to daughter Ella Bleu, 8

Three undated pictures of 20-year-old Brazilian model Mariana Bridi da Costa. Costa lost her hands

statement on her website


SAO PAULO (AFP) – A 20-year-old Brazilian model who lost her hands and feet to an infection died in hospital Saturday of medical complications, according to a family statement on her website


"It's with great sadness that we inform you of the death of Mari, today (Saturday) at 2:30am," her family wrote on the site of Mariana Bridi da Costa

They said she died of a generalized infection and abdominal bleeding


National news websites, including G1, O Globo and Estadao, quoted authorities confirming the information


Doctors at the Dorio Silva Hospital in Serra, in the southeastern state of Espirito Santo, earlier this month amputated Bridi's hands and feet because of irreparable tissue damage caused by a urinary infection


She was diagnosed with the Pseudomonas aeroginosa bacterium, which can prove fatal


Bridi was an up-and-coming model before the tragedy struck


She twice made it into the national finals for the Miss World contest, and last year traveled to China to participate in the Miss Bikini International pageant


Her family and media on Friday had launched an appeal for blood donors to help Bridi, who had the rare O negative blood type


"It is important to stress that, in Mari's 20 years of life, she lived intensely and was very happy," the family said in their statement


O Globo said Bridi was to buried late Saturday


Sat Jan 24, 12:04 PM ET

Chris Has Respect

Brandy Norwood


According to R&B singer Brandy, Chris Brown has respect for his elders, including the “Long Distance and Departed” singer.
“Wow. Chris Brown is a fan. That’s so sweet,” says Brandy.
Sitting down with Rap-Up recently, Brandy goes on to say that she loves Crihanna, the nickname for Chris Brown and Rihanna’s relationship.
“Every time I see Chris Brown, he tells me songs that have never been on any of my albums. He tells me songs that have been online or that you have to find, like Brandy’s lost records—records that you would have to Google, that are not on iTunes—and it’s like, “Wow. Chris Brown is a fan.”
Brandy, who released her first album in several years titled “Human” in 2008, says Rihanna listens to her 2004 album “Afrodisiac” a lot.

Chris Brown pairs with Rihanna, McGraw

[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]
Chris Brown


success of his 2007 sophomore Jive set “Exclusive,” which has sold 1.9 million copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan, Chris Brown is wrapping up a banner 2008. Not only did he snare two more Grammy Award nominations — best pop collaboration (with Jordin Sparks on “No Air”) and best male R&B vocal (”Take You Down”) — he emerges as Billboard’s top pop artist of the year
Brown says he’s content to let the album “die down,” although a new single, “Superhuman” featuring Keri Hilson, was recently released. “Then I’m going to go away for a little while so people won’t get tired of me,” he says with a laugh. “After that I’ll come back and give them some bangers.”
In the meantime, Brown is plenty busy with other projects, including new music with girlfriend Rihanna. “I actually have a couple of songs written already that would be dope collaborations between me and her,” he says. “And I’m writing for her new album now.”
Among other outside writing projects, Brown says he “did a couple of songs for the Jonas Brothers, but I don’t know if they took any of them. And I did a couple of songs with the Backstreet Boys and the Pussycat Dolls. I’ve also been writing songs for several new girl groups who are coming out.”
But his most surprising collaboration is with Tim McGraw, on a song called “Human” which has yet to be released. “It’s incredible, he says. “I wanted to do something more along the country line. That’s a bigger and different audience for me. I also did a song with the Japanese group called the Teriyaki Boys out of Pharrell’s camp.”
Next year will see the release of Brown’s first artist on his CBE label through Interscope, 13-year-old Scooter Smiff. Brown appears on Smiff’s first single, “Head of My Class.” “I will also have another label through Jive that’s still in the works,” he says. “Urban acts are the hardest to pick because of the competition level that’s out there right now. You don’t want to choose a novelty artist who’s only going to give you one record.”

New Justin Timberlake Track Hits The Internet

[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]

The song, titled “Bigger Than the World,” leaked on Thursday, according to Mtv News , and while the track features Justin’s trademark falsetto and percussion-heavy production from his usual collaborator, super-producer Timbaland, it’s unclear if it will appear on any future releases by the artist.
Justin has turned to working with other artists rather than focus on his own material in the last year, previously telling MTV News that his solo career was “tiring” – and “Bigger Than the World” sounds like it may have been written for someone else. The chorus features the lyric “Though I’m just a girl,” a likely giveaway.
“I could change [my mind] next week, but I don’t have the bug to jump in and start the whole process again, and touring again,” Justin previously told MTV News.
As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, the star is also devoting time to his fashion line, William Rast, which will make its debut at Bryant Park in February with its Fall 2009 collection.

JEAN RENO - RENO WORRIES ABOUT FUTURE AS A NEW DAD

[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]
Jean Reno and wife Zofia Borucka walking hand in hand through the streets of Manhattan New York City, USA

French movie star JEAN RENO has mixed emotions about becoming a father again at 60 - he will have time to play with the new baby, but he's not sure how active he'll be as his kid grows up. The Da Vinci Code star's third wife, Zofia Borucka, is set to give birth to the actor's fifth child later this year (09), and Reno can't wait to take a break from acting and spend time with the new addition.
He says, "I will be able to spend one hour on the carpet with my baby. I wasn't able to do that when I was younger because I was always working, so I hope to be there and have more time."
But he's trying not to think about the future - because he worries he won't have the energy to be a hands-on dad: "The question that pains me is will I be able to play football or even to run when the baby gets older. We'll see."
And Reno admits he no longer wants to be reminded of his age - his 60th birthday celebrations were his last.
He explains, "I don't want to celebrate anymore. I admitted that I do not want people saying, 'Hey, you look great, you're in shape.' No, leave me alone!"

Angelina Jolie turned heads at the Screen Actors Guild Awards last Sunday, and it wasn't just because she was her usual stunning self. It turns out Angie was wearing her Max Azria gown -- a cornflower blue creation -- backward!
Did a spurned stylist tell her to wear it the wrong way round? Or was the "Changeling" star too busy caring for her newborn twins that she didn't realize her mistake?

Neither, according to Jen Rade, who styles the starlet. Rade told Usmagazine.com that Jolie reversed the gown on purpose to make it "more blouson." For those of you who do not parle Francais, "blouson" is the French word for blouse. The end result was a bit too bland for my taste, and rather reminiscent of another Max Azria dress she wore to the Critic's Choice Awards just a few weeks earlier. Had she worn her gown the right way round, Angelina would have shown more skin but less of her distracting tattoos!
For some reason, the ---- actress has favored billowy blouson gowns with cinched waists this awards season. I just hope she takes a break from the trend come Oscars next month. She may be a mother of six, but she doesn't need to look matronly.

Spears obtains ex-boyfriend ban


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]

Singer Britney Spears has obtained a restraining order against ex-boyfriend Adnan Ghalib and one-time manager Sam Lutfi, court papers show.


The 27-year-old, whose affairs have been controlled by her father as a "conservator" for a year, obtained the order from a Los Angeles judge.
It accused Mr Ghalib, a photographer, and Mr Lutfi of trying to "disrupt" the conservatorship order.
Neither man was available to comment, the Associated Press reported.
Lawyer Jon Eardley, who is also named in the order, was also unavailable for comment.
The documents state the three men have been trying to take charge of Ms Spears' affairs, which have been controlled by Jamie Spears since 1 February 2008.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



"On the first anniversary of the establishment of the conservatorship, the co-conservators are informed and believe that these three figures are working in concert to disrupt the conservatorship, with an utter disregard for Ms Spears' health and well-being," the documents, released on Friday, state.

[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


'Anonymous messages'
They also claim that Mr Lutfi had tried to contact the singer by sending text messages to her hairdresser, before sending messages to Ms Spears herself and one of her father's lawyers, Blair Berk, to try to arrange a meeting.
The order, granted by Judge Aviva K Bobb, also alleges Mr Lutfi had sent "anonymous, harassing and threatening" messages to Jamie Spears.
Geraldine Wyle, a lawyer for Mr Spears, wrote that Mr Ghalib, who was brought up in Birmingham before settling in California, and Mr Lutfi had "disappeared" and investigators had been trying to find the pair for six weeks.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



An earlier restraining order against Mr Lutfi was not renewed when it expired in July, with Ms Spears' court-appointed attorney issuing a statement renouncing their friendship.
While the conservatorship order has been expensive, with Ms Spears' estate paying out hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal fees, the singer's life has settled down after a turbulent spell which saw her taken to hospital twice.

Eva Green is talking up the British male. Pictures by Marc Horn for GQ

French actress Eva Green has blown open the Gallic myth that English men lack that certain 'je ne sais quoi'

The Bond girl, who lives alone in her adopted home town of London, said she's more than willing to give Blighty's finest a chance.
'The cliché of the Englishman – quite uptight, the head not quite connected to the body – I've found generally to be untrue,' the 28-year-old said.
But she added her steamy scene with Daniel Craig in Casino Royale didn't really float her boat.
'We tried our best to make it look convincing but it's a long way away from real kissing,' she told GQ magazine

Gwyneth poses for this month's Elle magazine. Photos by Matt Jones

Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed her family were left 'very offended' after Jonathan Ross bragged he would '**** her'

The star revealed her family's anger as she spoke for the first time about the chat show host's lewd comments last April
Underfire Ross was branded 'gratuitous and not editorially justified' by the BBC trust after he quipped the star was 'clearly gagging for it'

Paltrow now says it was her husband Chris Martin's father, chartered accountant Anthony Martin, that was most offended.

.Hilarious to me. Very offensive to my father-in-law

.'The star told Elle magazine, it was 'hilarious to me. Very offensive to my father-in-law
.Meanwhile, ranting Gwyneth Paltrow has bitten back at critics of her lifestyle newsletter, Goop
The stressed star insists she's no square and defiantly declares: 'F**k the haters! I saw this blog of people writing horrible things about me and for a second your ego is so wounded,' the 36-year-old said
'How could people hate me, my intentions or what I'm trying to do? I'm a good person and I'm trying to put good things into the world.'
Paltrow has had her share of critics, who've branded her aloof and a bit of a prude.
She revealed: 'I'm probably less square than people think. I never get drunk to the point of throwing up. But I get very talkative.'
And Paltrow confessed to Elle that, despite her healthy lifestyle, she misses smoking terribly.
'Man, I wish smoking didn't kill you, I'd be smoking right now. I miss it,' she admitted.
She also shed light on her relationship with husband Chris Martin – and why they are never pictured together.
'It doesn't behove us to be a public couple. He certainly doesn't want to be that,' she explained.
'I mean, we've never ever walked down a red carpet together, we never will.'

Jennifer Hudson make her first performance since the shooting


After one deep breath, Jennifer Hudson returned to the spotlight Sunday with a flawless performance of the national anthem before the American football championship game.
Wearing a flowing white top with black pants and a cropped black jacket, the 27-year-old singer/actress looked apprehensive when she first climbed onto the round blue stage on the field of Raymond James Stadium. Then she took the breath and launched into the anthem.
Hudson used the Super Bowl's massive television audience for her first public appearance since the October slayings in Chicago of her mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew. Her estranged brother-in-law has been charged in the killings


When she returned to her dressing room, she anxiously asked pre-game show producer Rickey Minor "How did I do?"
."I told her 'Touchdown!"' Minor told The Associated Press after the performance
"This was such an important performance, because it's the first time everyone has seen Jennifer. But she's in such a great place, with such great spirits and time can heal her wounds. She's on fire right now and totally grounded."
Hudson's now expected to resume her active work schedule. Hudson, who won an Oscar for best supporting actress for her role in "Dreamgirls," is scheduled to perform at next week's Grammy Awards.
And her new video for "If This Isn't Love" is set to debut the week of Feb. 9.
Hudson has yet to speak publicly about the slayings

Actor James Whitmore dies



(CNN) -- Craggy-faced film, television and stage actor James Whitmore has died at 87, the Los Angeles County, California, Sheriff's Department confirmed Saturday.

[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]
Actor James Whitmore, pictured in December 2006, had a 60-year career on stage, in films and on television.


Details of his death and funeral arrangements were not available.

Whitmore notably portrayed Harry Truman, Will Rogers and Theodore Roosevelt in one-man stage shows and created memorable characters in many movies and TV shows, including "The Twilight Zone."

According to entertainment Web site IMDb.com, Whitmore won a Tony award in 1948 for his gritty Broadway portrayal of an Army sergeant in "Command Decision" but was replaced by Van Johnson in the film version.

Whitmore won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Oscar for his performance in the 1949 film "Battleground." He was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar in 1976 for "Give 'Em Hell, Harry," the film version of his one-man show about Truman.

The actor won an Emmy in 2000 for his performance as Raymond Oz in a three-episode arc on the ABC legal drama "The Practice," according to IMDb.com.

Movie fans may remember his subtle portrayal of aging prison inmate Brooks Hatlen in 1994's "The Shawshank Redemption" with Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman.

He played U.S. Navy Adm. William F. Halsey in the World War II epic "Tora! Tora! Tora!" and was an imperious ape in the 1968 classic "Planet of the Apes."

Whitmore looked natural in cowboy boots and hat, appearing in such TV series as "Bonanza," "The Virginian" and "Gunsmoke."

He also did commercials for Miracle-Gro plant foods.

According to IMDb.com, Whitmore was born in 1921 in White Plains, New York. He was married four times: twice to Nancy Mygatt, for four years in the '70s to actress Audra Lindley, and since 2001 to actress Noreen Nash.

He was the father of three children, including actor-director James Whitmore Jr.

AP – Robert Plant, left, and Alison Krauss accept the award for best pop collaboration with vocals at the


LOS ANGELES – Robert Plant and Alison Krauss' unorthodox musical partnership yielded rich rewards on Grammy night, as the pair won a leading four Grammys, including record of the year for the haunting "Please Read The Letter."


At the same moment that the show was going on, teen heartthrob and double Grammy nominee Chris Brown was talking with detectives about an alleged felony assault on an unidentified woman the night before. Police records showed he was being held on $50,000 bail.


Brown and longtime girlfriend Rihanna, also nominated, were both slated to perform in different slots of the show, but separately dropped out at the last minute. The victim of Brown's alleged assault wasn't identified, and it wasn't immediately clear whether Rihanna's absence was related to Brown's.


Jennifer Hudson was there, however, and provided the night's most emotional moments onstage. The Oscar winner took her first Grammy award — for best R&B album — for her self-titled debut.


Hudson, 27, made no direct reference to the October killings of her mother, brother and nephew that kept her in seclusion until just this month. But while fighting back tears, she made it clear that her family was foremost on her mind.


"I first would like to thank God who has brought me through. I would like to thank my family in heaven and those who are with me today.


Hudson later performed "You Pulled Me Through," a dramatic song about overcoming deep despair, with the lyrics: "When I was drowning, when I was so confused, you, you pulled me through." As she sang the last note, she looked directly into the camera and dissolved into tears once again.


There were no tears as Krauss and Plant accepted their awards for their emotion-rich CD, "Raising Sand." The pairing of the former Led Zeppelin rocker and Krauss, a bluegrass queen, may have seemed downright weird on paper, but the T Bone Burnett-produced album was universally acclaimed.


Plant said "Please Read The Letter" was "an old song that me and Jimmy Page wrote together post Led Zeppelin, and it's been given that Nashville touch, and it feels pretty good."


The Grammy telecast was filled with eye-popping and eyebrow-raising performances, from Radiohead's collaboration with a college marching band to a televised black-and-white throwback performance from Jay-Z, T.I., Lil Wayne, Kanye West and a very pregnant M.I.A.


But the absences of Brown and Rihanna put a huge hole in the Grammy telecast. Rihanna was supposed to sing "Live Your Life/Disturbia" as the second performance of the night, Brown was later to sing "Forever." Each was nominated in the pop collaboration with vocals category, Brown for "No Air" with "American Idol" champion Jordin Sparks; and Rihanna for "If I Never See Your Face Again" with Maroon 5.


Brown was also nominated for male R&B vocal performance for "Take You Down."


Neither won a Grammy on Sunday, and the Recording Academy found able replacements for their performance slots in Justin Timberlake, Al Green, Boyz II Men and Keith Urban as they all sang Green's classic hit, "Let's Stay Together." No mention was made on the broadcast about the switch.


According to the police report, released 90 minutes before the show began Sunday, Brown and a woman were in a vehicle in the ritzy neighborhood of Hancock Park when they began to argue around 12:30 a.m. Sunday. Brown stopped the car and both got out, whereupon the argument escalated, the report said.


The woman, who had visible injuries when police arrived, identified Brown as her attacker, but he had left the scene, the report said.


With all the drama going on onstage and behind the scenes, the awards seemed almost like an afterthought — but the show went on. Coldplay and Lil Wayne each won three Grammys apiece — Coldplay's win included song of the year for "Viva La Vida."


"We've never had so many Grammys in our life," said lead singer Chris Martin, perhaps so excited he got confused (they had already won four over the years). "We feel so grateful to be here. I'm going to tear up."


British singer Adele was also teary, as she beat the Jonas Brothers, Lady Antebellum, Jazmine Sullivan and fellow Brit singer Duffy to nab best new artist. It was her second award of the evening.

"Thank you so much. I'm going to cry. I want to thank my manager, my mom, she's in London. And Duffy I love you. I think you're amazing. Jonas Brothers, I love you as well," she said, saying the last part with a devilish look, eliciting laughter.

It was Adele's second award; she earlier won for best female pop vocal.

Lil Wayne was the nominations leader with eight, and won best rap solo performance for "A Milli," rap song for "Lollipop" and rap/sung collaboration for "Swagga Like Us," an all-star song featuring Jay-Z, T.I. and Kanye West.

But the prolific rapper won't be going home with eight trophies; he was competing against himself in two categories that he won and lost another. He still has a chance to win the evening's top prize, album of the year, for his best-selling disc "Tha Carter III."
Plant and Krauss, also nominated for album of the year for their collaboration "Raising Sand," took home an award for country collaborations with vocals and contemporary folk/Americana album. They later won a third for pop collaboration with vocals

The 33-year-old managed to get through her speech without crying, telling the audience it means 'a great deal to me'.
Winslet's latest victory makes her a firm favourite for a first Oscar in a fortnight's time. But many fans were left disappointed as she rushed past them on the red carpet last night to keep her Zac Posen designer dress dry as the heavens opened. Slumdog actress Freida Pinto added a touch of Bollywood glamour by turning out in diamante Jimmy Choo heels at the event in central London.

We have to admit that, compared to recent years, the 51st edition of the Grammy Awards ceremonies did carry a bit of suspense. For instance, Would Lil Wayne be the first rapper to win Album of the Year, and if so, would his pants stay up? If they won Song of the Year for "Viva La Vida," would Coldplay get coldcocked onstage by Joe Satriani, the guitarist whose instrumental "If I Could Fly" surely seemed to have been stolen lock, stock, and riff by Chris Martin and crew? Would ultra-pregnant M.I.A., appearing on her actual due date, become the first Grammy nominee to drop a baby right in the middle of a performance? And what on earth happened between Chris Brown and Rihanna, both of whom were no-shows on the telecast owing to a late Saturday night post-party altercation that apparently left Rihanna injured and Brown arrested on battery charges?


Well, over the course of a three-and-a-half-hour program in which a grand total of 10 (!) awards were actually given out (believe it or not, the rest of the 110 total Grammys up for grabs were all doled out, as has been the practice for some time now, in a hurried pre-telecast ceremony on the floor of L.A.'s Staples Center), we did get answers to the first three of those four questions: respectively, no, no and no.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


Lil Wayne won Best Rap Album, but not Album of the Year, which, as per the Recording Academy's usual conservative bent, went to Robert Plant and Alison Krauss's Americana album Raising Sand. Coldplay won Song of the Year without anyone yelling, "Thief!" And M.I.A., wearing a sort of maternity leotard thing, made it through her part on "Swagga Like Us" without going into labor--though for any of us who actually made it through the whole darned show, labor was indeed the operative word.


As for the Chris Brown/Rihanna flareup, we'll probably need to wait for the police blotter sometime tomorrow to find out about that one.

Still, the 51st Grammy Awards show did overall have its share of moments to remember. And to that end, here's our own top 10: Yahoo!'s 2009 Grammy telecast "And The Winner Is" awards:


The "Rising To The Occasion" Award goes to Jennifer Hudson, for surpassing her dramatic rendition of the national anthem at last week's Super Bowl with a riveting (and decidedly non-lip-synched) performance of her uplifting "You Pulled Me Through."




[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


The "Stooping To The Occasion" Award goes to Thom Yorke and Radiohead, whose whiny rendition of "15 Step" was so bad-vibed that you kind of wished they'd have just left the stage and allowed the USC Trojan Marching Band accompanying them to do the song by themselves.


The "Haven't We Seen This Picture Before?" Award goes to Whitney Houston, who looked and sounded as out-of-it as a presenter in 2009 as she did as a performer in 2000, when they had to remind her that her song was over and she kind of needed to leave the stage so the show could continue.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


The "I Wonder What They're Thinking Right Now?" Award goes to Dean Martin's son and daughter, who after hearing Queen Latifah salute their late dad's Lifetime Achievement nod, then heard her introduce Kanye West, T.I., Lil Wayne, and Jay-Z as the "Rap Pack." Somewhere, Frank Sinatra is spinning in his grave.


The "Best Date Placement" Award goes to Paul McCartney, for using his upfront aisle-seat pull to show off new gal pal Nancy Shevell. Oh, Heather...



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


The "I Went To The Grammys And A Boston Red Sox Game Broke Out" Award goes to Neil Diamond, for his pluperfectly cheesy rendition of the Fenway Park 8th-inning staple "Sweet Caroline." And how 'bout those eyebrows?


The "Works Well With Fruit" Award goes to Katy Perry, for making the kitchiest most out of her performance of "I Kissed A Girl," complete with an entrance out of a giant peeled banana (insert your favorite Freud joke here) and a trash 'n' vaudeville outfit that, were she alive today, Carmen Miranda would kill for.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


The "Was This In The Script?" Award goes to presenter Samuel L. Jackson, who actually began his intro of T.I. and Justin Timberlake with the following salutation: "People of Earth!" Somewhere, Ed Wood is smiling.


The "Was This In The Script II?" Award goes to presenter Craig Ferguson, who announced that he was up for a Best --- Tape Award: "It's me vs. Screech." Even Paris Hilton blushed at that one.


And, finally, the "All Kidding Aside" Award goes to NARAS chief Neil Portnow, for noting the organization's commitment to improving health care, saving music education in schools, and protecting musician's intellectual rights. And yes, past Grammy Award winner Barack Obama, a cabinet position of Secretary of the Arts is a pretty good idea. Just ask Quincy Jones.

Chris Brown Bounces NBA All-Star Appearance


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



The R&B star, arrested last night for allegedly assaulting girlfriend Rihanna, has pulled out of his scheduled appearance Sunday at the 2009 NBA All-Star Game.
The 19-year-old had been tapped to introduce the players with Shaquille O’Neal before tip-off at Phoenix’s US Airways Center. His “No Air” partner Jordin Sparks will be singing the national anthem.
“Chris Brown has withdrawn from NBA All-Star events,” an NBA spokeswoman confirmed to E! News today.
The big-time basketball fan had also been planning to play Friday in the annual All-Star Celebrity Game, part of the weekend-long festivities.
The cancellation is no surprise considering both Brown and Rihanna scratched their scheduled performances at yesterday’s Grammy Awards and Rihanna is expected to scrap a concert Friday in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Besides, any participation on Brown’s part would surely be overshadowed by questions about really happened between him and his chart-topping girlfriend. Earlier Monday, gum purveyor Wrigley announced it was pulling all running advertisements for Doublemint Gum featuring the “Kiss Kiss” singer.

Kate Hudson & Owen Wilson Are a Couple – Again!


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



Hollywood's on-again, off-again couple – Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson – are on yet again.

"They're back together," a source tells PEOPLE of the pair, who spent all of Sunday together at Wilson's Malibu home. Also there: Hudson's 5-year-old son Ryder.

Hudson, 29, and Wilson, 40, were most recently linked in Feb. 2008, where they appeared cozy at the Academy Awards last year. The two continued to hang out for several months – even celebrating Hudson's birthday in Miami – before breaking up again in May 2008.

"It was a pretty bad breakup," a friend of Wilson's told PEOPLE at the time. "Owen said it was a tough one. He definitely doesn't want to dwell on it. He wants to put it behind him."


The two began dating originally in Sept. 2006, after filming You, Me and Dupree together. They later split in June 2007, but remained "friends" at the time, a source told PEOPLE.

Jennifer Aniston vs. Angelina Jolie: a box-office smackdown

Angelina Jolie
It had to happen: Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston will finally get to duke it out.

At the box office.

Both actresses have big movies opening on Oct. 24: Angelina's "Changeling" and Jennifer's "He's Just Not That Into You."

But "Into You" also stars other appealing actors such as Scarlett Johansson, Ginnifer Goodwin, Drew Barrymore, her boyfriend Justin Long, Jennifer Connelly and Ben Affleck. Aniston plays Affleck's love interest in the adaptation of the bestselling relationship book that's also become part of the modern cultural vernacular. Click here to see the trailer on the author's website.

Director Clint Eastwood's period mystery, "Changeling," also stars John Malkovich and Amy Ryan, and already created Oscar buzz for Jolie at the Cannes Film Festival.

My bet? Jennifer will win the box-office battle and Angelina may end up with a little gold Oscar statue.

And the other thing to consider is that movie opening dates often change. Plus "Changeling" is not opening wide until Oct 31.

Rihanna cancels Indonesia concert



R&B star Rihanna has cancelled a concert in Jakarta due to be held on Thursday, show organisers have said.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]
Rihanna also cancelled a concert in Indonesia last year


Tour promoter Showmaster said the singer pulled out "because of an assault case involving Rihanna's boyfriend" - the singer Chris Brown.
The 20-year-old pulled a performance at the Grammys and another show in Malaysia on Tuesday.
Brown, 19, was arrested and charged on Sunday with making criminal threats. He was released on $50,000 (£35,000) bail.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



It is the second time Rihanna has cancelled a concert in the Indonesian capital - she pulled out of a show in November last year after the Australian government issued a travel warning following the executions of the three men convicted of the 2002 Bali bombings.
Concert promoter Troy Reza Warokka told AFP he spoke with the star's management to confirm the cancellation.


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



'Traumatised fans'
"We spoke to Tony Goldring of the William Morris Agency and he said the concert had to be cancelled because of an assault case involving Rihanna's boyfriend," he said.
"He offered to reschedule but we don't think we'll take it up, not this year at least.
"This is her second postponement. Her fans are traumatised and we've spent so much money on production and promotional materials," he added.
Meanwhile, prosecutors have said they want more evidence from police before pressing assault charges against Chris Brown.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]



According to police, Brown and an unidentified woman got into an argument in a parked car in the Hancock Park area of Los Angeles, which escalated as the pair got out of the car.
Rihanna's publicist has not confirmed or denied whether the singer was involved, only releasing a short statement saying: "Rihanna is well. Thank you for your concern and support."

Scarlett Johansson has revealed her wish to work with director Tim Burton. The actress, who has starred in movies by Woody Allen, Christopher Nolan, Brian De Palma and Sofia Coppola among others, told MTV she fancies working alongside the Sweeney Todd filmaker. She said, "I would love to work with Tim Burton. I am a huge Tim Burton fan." Scarlett, 24, also talked about her desire to be behind the cameras. "It's kind of the first time in a while that I don't really know what I'm going to be doing," she said. "But I directed a segment for New York, I Love You. That's going to be coming out. I'm hoping to do more development, production and direction. Stuff like that."

The Many Looks of Brad Pitt


by Eugene Blackburn, February 10, 2008


[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


Movie stars love to show the world they are more than just a pretty face. Then again, they also love making millions of dollars off of that face. Brad Pitt -- whose facial prettiness is the stuff of legend -- has gone for some odd looks in movies over the years. But let's face it: he could spackle his hair with river mud and tattoo obscenities to his forehead and women would still swoon at the sight of him


For his upcoming movie, Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" Mr. Jolie goes for a military buzz-cut and the kind of mustache popular among cops and '70 adult film actors. Let's look through a few of Brad's other more eccentric movie looks and see, within his rarified realm of male beauty, whether he's hot or not. Or you can skip down to watch the 'stache in action in exclusive trailer for "Inglourious Basterds" below

By now, you’ve heard Rihanna missed the Grammy Awards, perhaps because she was the victim of boyfriend Chris Brown’s rage.
Kalyn Porcello, 21, a student at Bellevue Community College and a third-generation jeweler with her family’s 57-year-old business, paid for last-minute tickets to the awards show and made a road trip out of it with friends, mostly to see Rihanna perform.
“Heartbroken” herself at Rihanna’s troubles, she came up with this idea: custom-designing Rihanna




a 14K gold diamond necklace from her family’s store, “so the singer does not go empty-handed on the day of love, Valentine’s Day.“
Porcello Jewelers of Seattle has been working around the clock to put the finishing touches on the necklace, said spokesman Brian Arnold.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]


But I asked, does Rihanna really need another expensive gift? Why not donate in her name to a women’s shelter, or something like that?
Arnold’s answer: “And whether you’re rich or not, everyone will appreciate a nice gift after a traumatic experience. As the saying goes, according to Kalyn, diamonds are a girl’s best friend. And if it puts a smile on her face, after what she’s gone through, then it’s worth all the money in the world. As one twenty-something to another, she’d thought she’d love it. Rihanna’s most famous song, ‘Live Your Life,’ says You’re gonna be a shining star, With fancy clothes, fancy car-ars” and so on, talking about the good life.”
I thought Rihanna’s most famous song was “Umbrella” and that song, “Live Your Life” was by T.I., featuring Rihanna, but I guess he makes his point. Or does he?

Chris Brown is in deep do-do after allegedly punching out his girlfriend Rihanna.
The pair reportedly got into a spat the day of the Grammies, resulting in Brown, 19 assaulting her and leaving her to fend for herself in L.A.

Police have questioned both parties, and are continuing to investigate the incident that has resulted in Brown being dropped from radio stations like a bad habit.

There is a theory floating around that the pair got into their spat over a text message received by Brown that Rihanna did not appreciate.

Rihanna was hospitalized due to injuries sustained at the hands of Brown, who was subsequently jailed and released on $50,000 bail.

Both singers have been told to remain in L.A. while the police sort out the mess.

Eminem breaks US download record



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]

Eminem's long-awaited comeback single has broken a download record and topped the US Billboard singles chart.

Crack A Bottle, which also features Dr Dre, has sold more than 418,000 online copies, the most ever in a first week of release.
The previous best was Live Your Life by rapper TI, which shifted 335,000 downloads last October.
The new single comes ahead of Relapse, the first new album from Eminem since 2004's Encore.
Crack A Bottle now becomes the third best selling download single. It sits behind Lady GaGa's Just Dance on 419,000 and Flo Rida's Low on 467,000.

Chris Brown says he is seeking counseling from loved ones and family members, one week after an alleged attack against his girlfriend, singer Rihanna.


"Words cannot begin to express how sorry and saddened I am over what transpired. I am seeking the counseling of my pastor, my mother and other loved ones and I am committed, with God's help, to emerging a better person."

The 19-year-old R&B singer issued a brief statement today through publicist Michael Sitrick. In it, Brown also says many of the reports about the incident are incorrect, although he doesn't provide further details.

"Much of what has been speculated or reported on blogs and/or reported in the media is wrong. While I would like to be able to talk about this more, until the legal issues are resolved, this is all I can say except that I have not written any messages or made any posts to Facebook, on blogs or any place else. Those posts or writings under my name are frauds."

Screengrabs of a fake Facebook page circulated online late last week, but was quickly determined to be a hoax.

Brown turned himself in on Feb. 8 and was booked on suspicion of making a criminal treath, but no charges have been filed yet. He is free on $50,000 bail while the case is being investigated.

On Friday, Brown's father said his son is at home and "very remorseful" over what happened. Rihanna is now at home in Barbados recuperating.

PARIS (AP) — Salma Hayek picked a most romantic time and place to get married: Valentine's Day in Paris. The Mexican-born actress wed French magnate Francois-Henri Pinault in a civil ceremony Saturday at the City Hall in Paris' chic 6th arrondissement, according to an official there.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ] 6%2F2009_02_16t141340_217x450_us_hayek.jpg?v=2



The wedding was a small affair, said the official, who was speaking on condition of anonymity, in accordance with policy.



[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ] 16%2Fcapt.photo_1234798347981-1-0.jpg?v=2



Hayek's spokeswoman, Cari Ross, confirmed in an e-mail Monday that the marriage had taken place in Paris Saturday. No further details were provided.


The nuptials followed a rocky romance. The two met in Italy in 2006, announced their engagement and had a baby, Valentina Paloma, in September 2007. Last year they broke off their engagement but made up a few months later.

Certain performers evoke strong reactions either positive or negative--as if you're not allowed to be neutral. You must decide--or else. Why? Sometimes it's the performer who's just so in your face. Sometimes it's the artist's audience whose devotion makes you wonder if you tripped upon a cult. Sometimes it's even the actual music that's tailored to a certain audience and feels exclusionary to everyone else.

I've been writing this blog for what now has been about half my life. And I've learned, too, that certain bands have computer savvy fans quick to defend their idols, while other performers aren't quite so lucky. I've been dogging on the Pure Prairie League and it's as if no one cares! While I've been surprised by just how many Leon Russell fans are still alive and well and ready to stick up for their man. And Aerosmith fans are a vocal lot, while the enthusiasm for Uriah Heep hasn't quite kept up with the times.

And I am planning a list of the Ten Most Universally Loved Bands as well. Which, of course, will bring an outpouring of people letting us all know how much they don't love said bands. But that's the beauty of this whole schoolyard-sandbox! Everyone gets to play. Just don't knock me in the head with the metal shovel. Those things hurt.

TEN) Creed: Scott Stapp always looks so serious. Which only sets you up for being goofed on. And the fact that the band's music sounds big and important and makes Pearl Jam sound modest in comparison makes them ripe for ribbing. But their fans are solid, true believers and made them one of the era's most successful bands. Had they stayed together would they have saved or destroyed civilization? We now will never know.

NINE) Sonic Youth: When they opened for Neil Young back in the early ‘90s, Sonic Youth were suddenly thrust into the classic rock spotlight where their alternate tunings and indie-rock mutterings were suddenly cooked under the mainstream microscope. What made sense to people used to loitering in dark, dirty rock clubs was suddenly being served to the day-glo beer bracelet crowd and the results wasn't always pretty. Yes, the professional reviews have been pretty glowing, but it only seemed to breed resentment in other quarters where the band have been considered a tuneless fraud. Different strokes for different folks could've been the band's motto if it wasn't already a tired cliché.

EIGHT) U2: No matter how many times Bono tries to tell a joke or show off his light-hearted side, it still comes off as if he's merely stooping down to say hello to the little people. He's always insisted on indulging his flair for the dramatic and his band either play anthemic rock that makes you want to topple the castle walls or sleep-inducing drones that lack any jam-kicking drive. They're a bit like a religion. Their followers see a Messiah leading them to the promised land and their detractors see a snake-oil salesman hocking overpriced goo.

SEVEN) Rush: Let's hear it from the ladies in the audience! Oh, wait, there aren't any. This is a RUSH concert. The only women in attendance were dragged there by boyfriends who are skating on some pretty thin ice. I'm sure a handful of female Rush fans will write in to correct me on this point. But, really, take a look around. For whatever reason, Rush attract a predominately male audience who admire and analyze the band's every move. It's like a secret language where science fiction, objectivism and weird time signatures all converge and plan to sprout a new society. To outsiders, it's like Geek-A-Thon 2112 where Daffy Duck sings the company song for two hours.

SIX) Jimmy Buffett: Parrotheads can't get enough and have made Jimmy Buffett one of the richest, most successful performers of the past century. The man has his appeal. But to those not swayed by the pirate's life and who've never ventured down to the Florida Keys, the whole experience looks more like an insurance convention gone loco.

FIVE) Barbra Streisand: Could her following be much larger? She crosses over to so many different audiences who would pay any amount of money to hear her sing, to perform, to lift their spirits. And there are other people who would pay any amount of money to NOT hear her sing another note. One man's ceiling is another man's floor? One man's junk is another man's treasure? One man's daughter is another's man's annoying next door neighbor?

FOUR) The Doors: I've never quite understood this, but it started in college and has followed me everywhere I write. Anytime I write about the Doors, it leads to people vehemently discussing how much Jim Morrison a) sucks, b) rules. If I say something positive, it's not positive enough. If I write something negative, I'm not nasty enough. Either Jimmy and the boys were genius or they were pretentious creeps who had the blues. Heck, my own problem is I like the pretentiousness and the drunken vocals. Those are the good parts in my book.

THREE) Billy Joel: The man has more songs on the radio than just about any performer I can name. Many people swear he's written the soundtrack to their lives. Many other people wish they could live in a world where never would another Billy Joel song visit their lives. It's like they should start planning retirement communities where you could decide whether you want to live the Billy Joel lifestyle or the Non-Billy Joel Lifestyle, the way they once offered Smoking or Non-smoking sections of a restaurant. It only seems fair.

TWO) Frank Zappa: His admirers laugh at his jokes and admire his musicianship--and collect an awful lot of albums. His detractors think he's smarmy, self-congratulatory and not nearly as smart as he thinks he is--and they don't collect a lot of his albums. Some people think he's funny looking--or that he named his kids some pretty freaky names--Dweezil?, Moon Unit? He was a true original. You just have to decide whether his distinct flavor and aroma is right for you. Somebody uses the Boysenberry syrup at the IHOP.

ONE) Grateful Dead: This one should be obvious. Deadheads are legion and they can discuss the variations of the different performances and they have the bootlegs to back up their theories. To those not turned on and tuned in to their trip, it just looks like a parking lot with no designated parking spots and too much mud to ever be bothered. Do you need to be high to "get it"? I can't tell. But the people seem to be having a good time. But it could all be a ruse of the CIA setting us up for a cataclysmic disaster. You decide if it's worth the risk.

Kylie Minogue proves she still has what it takes to be a pop princess at the Brit Awards


.Kylie Minogue stole the show at the Brit Awards with her impressive six wardrobe changes
The Aussie started the night in a sophisticated black sequined gown - but soon stripped off into a seductive white outfit, showing off as much leg as possible


The audience barely had time to catch their breath before the 40-year-old singer did another quick change into a candy-coloured mini-dress, followed by a silver, then green and finally a red strapless number.

!Kylie looks amazing in silver... and green...and red



Kylie then proved she's not ready to take a back seat in the music business by performing a comedy dance routine of her hit Can't Get You Out Of My Head with co-hosts James Corden and Mathew Horn

James and Mat showed off their skills, or lack of, as Ms Minogue's back up dancers in scarily tight-fitting red dresses
We recommend the actors don't give up their day jobs on Gavin And Stacey to pursue their dancing career though

Chris Brown learning anger-management after Rihanna abuse incident




[ برای مشاهده لینک ، لطفا با نام کاربری خود وارد شوید یا ثبت نام کنید ]
Musicians Chris Brown and Rihanna perform during the Z100 Jingle Ball in New York December 13, 2008.

Chris Brown is taking an anger-management class, a few weeks after leaving his girlfriend, Rihanna, bruised and beaten in their car, media reports said Thursday.

The troubled R&B singer, who was arrested two weeks ago on suspicion of making criminal threats against Rihanna, attended his first class in Glendale, Calif., on Monday afternoon.
"Chris doesn't actually have to go by law," a source told the Daily News. "But he believes it will make him look better to the public, and he wants to try to get in a few classes before March 5."
Meanwhile, police said the internal investigation launched last week into who provided TMZ.com with a photo of Rihanna that was taken after she was allegedly assaulted by Brown is still underway.
"They said they were looking into it vigorously," Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) spokesman Lt. John Romero said, referring to a statement made by an Internal Affairs commander at a meeting earlier in the day.
"A violation of this type is considered serious misconduct, with penalties up to and including termination," police said.
Brown and singer Rihanna, with whom he was allegedly involved in a violent incident on Feb. 8, are expected in court on March 5.
Investigators are reportedly in the process of putting together a felony case against Brown.
