Laura Logan blows her flip side lid

Posted on 26 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Laura Logan pulled scene with her TV Reporters’ Lovers Quarrel Blows-up in Baghdad. Laura Logan and her boyfriend, Michael Ware of CNN damned each other in a heated argument in the green zone making their secret relation a public scum. Logan is loosing it since she was entertaining a male embassy employee when Ware got in time to catch them. The argument lasted an hour with all kinds of damnation going across the room. The State Department employee was talking about tax issues when the toxic exchange erupted. It was a very loud argument and public fight which lasted for hours and even spilled over to the CNN safe house next door.

An enterprising editor was in time with a mic to tap the loud debacle and send the world wild and thrilled with the shameful tryst. Laura Logan’s husband who has been pissed by the inept behavior of Logan is reportedly to have left Baghdad to avoid finding himself in the thick of a public and media debate on immoral and shameful liaisons of his wife and the CNN guy. Jason Seimon a professional basketball player is married to Laura Logan. Siemon is not in Iraq anymore and his exact whereabouts are not known. The debacle makes the debut of the movie Hancock premiere a scintillating moment since it’s the last time Siemon and Logan were spotted together. Hancock features actor Will Smith who has been a Hollywood sensational and a friend to Siemon.

Will Smith kisses Letterman, says “God made first white ladies” in Russia

Posted on 25 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Secret Scientologist Will Smith has a movie to promote and a status as the top-grossing action hero to defend, so he’s doing the talk show circuit. His film Hancock with Charlize Theron is out in the US on July 2nd. He went on David Letterman last night to showcase his unique brand of everyman swagger and planted a big kiss on Letterman when the talk show host complimented his looks.

Letterman: Every time I see you, you just look better and better, and I’m wondering, because when you get to be my age you start thinking about…
[Smith puckers lips, leans in and closes eyes]
Letterman: Oh stop it.
[Then Letterman leans in twice and lets Smith kiss him on each cheek]
Smith: Once you go black, you never go back Dave.
Letterman: This has taken an unforeseen direction.
Schaeffer: Black is one thing, but this is ridiculous
Letterman: How old a guy are you, is where this is going?
Smith: I’m 39…
Letterman: You look like you’re 29 for the love of God.
Smith: David! My 40th birthday is this year, September 25.

[Transcribed from Will Smith’s appearance on The Late Show, 5/24/08, video below]

Smith has said in the past that he runs five miles a day six days a week, and if you do that “your body will look like whatever you want it to look like.”

The show was really entertaining and it’s easy to forget that Smith is hiding the fact that he’s brainwashing kids.

Letterman asked him what he’s been up to and he said he’s been traveling promoting Hancock and was in Berlin and Moscow. Letterman asked him what it was like and he said of Moscow “It’s like where God made the first white ladies ever.. Six foot two, blonde hair, blue-eyed [makes pained face] just perfection. It’s like really. It’s not the picture of Russia that we have… It is gorgeous and beautiful and sexy.”

Then they joked about the crowd response to Will around the world. Smith said “Something new happened after ‘I am Legend’ in my career… things have sort of connected around the world in a way that it’s never been. Walking down the streets of Moscow just the energy is more than it’s ever been.” Then Smith accidentally knocked his microphone off and said to Letterman “Can you get that for me honey?”

After the break Smith said that his wife Jada said he’s been working too much and asked him to take the next five months off. He didn’t sound happy about it, and he said Jada “might need to be prepared to have lots of sex, Dave.”

Kim Kardashian Gets Back to the States

Posted on 23 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Back home in Los Angeles following a lengthy vacation/promotional trip overseas, Kim Kardashian headed out for a shopping spree at Intermix boutique yesterday afternoon (June 21).

The “Keeping Up with the Kardashian’s” hottie, her sister and a friend all pulled up in Kim’s sporty black Bentley - hopping out to comb the racks of the trendy Robertson Blvd boutique.

Meanwhile, Miss Kardashian recently passed through Venice, Italy before ending her nearly two-week stay abroad in London, where she attended the premiere of “Hancock”.

While in Venice, Kim blogged about about her trip, telling: “Venice is absolutely beautiful!! We drove there from Florence—about a two hour drive. We spent the day walking around then had an amazing dinner on the water.”

She also offered up her “Top 5” things to do for those who find themselves in the northern Italian city, which reads:

1. Visit the Basilica di San Marco.

2. Take a gondola ride, of course! I recommend the Grand Canal—that’s like the city’s main street.

3. Get a room with a kitchen and cook a fresh catch from the fish market.

4. Take a lift up to the top of the basilica’s tall campanile.

5. The best window shopping is on the wide street, Calle Larga XXII Marzo.

Charlize Theron looked amazing at the Paris premiere of Hancock yesterday. That dress was very revealing and yet she makes it look classy.

Will Smith shocked Theron while on the set of Hancock when he slapped her face!

“He tried to fake slap me one time, but the fake one just didn’t happen. We’re still debating this one. I think he just hit me! But Will claims I leaned into his hand and that’s how it happened. I was so shocked! I was like, ‘He just slapped me!’” Contactmusic quoted her as saying. “But he said, ‘I did not slap you. I had my hand there and you turned into it,’” she added.

Theron, however, insisted that the incident did not sour their relationship. “We’re just like kids, it’s so much fun. He’s not a woman beater!” she said.

Charlize Theron at the Hancock Movie Premiere in Paris

Charlize Theron Hancock Premiere in Paris

Charlize Theron has been voted one of the sexiest women alive and it’s easy to see. Charlize took time out of her busy schedule to attend the Hancock movie premiere in Paris.

I’m really looking forward to seeing this movie and not just because Will Smith is a good actor. It’s a movie about a guy drunk off his ass! I mean come on who wouldn’t want to see a super hero drinking booze all the time and rip a city apart due to his drunkenness? I’m gonna try and sneak me a couple of flasks of whiskey in the theater and see how drunk I can get by the end of the movie!

Actress Eva Longoria and basketball guru Tony Parker where in Paris recently for the premiere of Will Smith’s latest movie, “Hancock.” The couple is just a month away from their very first wedding anniversary and you’d think they were still dating. Sources say Eva and Tony were living it up on the town — taking in some good food and vino along the way.

In addition, Eva got to spend some time with her mother-in-law. In case you didn’t know, Tony Parker is from France.

Kim Kardashian at the “HanCOCK” Premiere

Posted on 19 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

Here is a mumu-clad Kim Kardashian at the London premiere of “Hancock” earlier this week.

Everyone always talks about her ass (including myself), but why doesn’t anyone ever mention her veiny boobs?  Every time I see them I picture earth worms crawling under her skin.

More cleavage after the jump!

More Girls, Little Ones, Try to Take Back the Multiplex

Posted on 10 June 2008 by JoyCeleb

“Kit Kittredge: An American Girl” has no sex and not much of a city.

But this G-rated movie adventure is shaping up as Hollywood’s next serious bid for female viewers, some of whom showed their power by pushing the R-rated comedy “Sex and the City” to surprisingly strong first-weekend ticket sales of more than $57 million two weeks ago.

At first glance, the films have little in common, apart from their skew toward the female.

“Sex” runs hot, while “Kit” — scheduled for wide release on July 2, the same day as “Hancock,” starring Will Smith — does not. Fans of the fictional Manhattan writer Carrie Bradshaw, the heroine of “Sex and the City,” are often over 40. Ms. Kittredge, an aspiring reporter based on Mattel’s incredibly popular American Girl doll of the same name, mostly appeals to girls between 7 and 12.

Yet the films have a certain kinship. Each was made by a studio — “Kit” by Picturehouse, “Sex” by New Line Cinema — that was only weeks ago marked for elimination by the same corporate parent, Time Warner Inc.

And “Kit” has a shot at attracting an intense niche audience of the sort that boosted “Sex” at a time of year that has become better known for fantasies like the “Spider-Man” and “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies, with their broad demographic appeal.

“I’m scared out of my mind,” said Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, a producer of “Kit Kittredge,” speaking by telephone last week. She was referring to an unconventional decision by Picturehouse executives to open this relatively small film in around 1,800 theaters, putting it in competition with potential blockbusters like “Hancock,” from Sony Pictures, and “Wall-E,” from the Walt Disney Company’s Pixar Animation Studios.

“Kit,” which cost about $10 million to produce, stars Abigail Breslin (“Little Miss Sunshine”) and features an ensemble that mingles unknown child actors with adult pros like Julia Ormond, Stanley Tucci, Chris O’Donnell and Joan Cusack. Set in 1934, it tells the story of a Cincinnati girl who is trying to get the local newspaper to take her seriously as a reporter, even as her family and just about everyone else struggles with the Great Depression.

(Julia Roberts, a client of Ms. Goldsmith-Thomas when she was a talent agent, is an executive producer of “Kit.” The two were among those with producing credits on earlier television movies based on three other American Girls: Molly, Felicity and Samantha.)

That quite so innocent an enterprise should be in a position to challenge much racier movies with much higher budgets has much to do with the promotional power of American Girl, which, like HBO’s long-running “Sex and the City” series, is helping to prime loyal fans for a first film based on the brand.

In the toy world, American Girl’s characters — “they never refer to them as ‘dolls,’ ” Bob Berney, the president of Picturehouse, said in an interview last week — are unusual in that they come with detailed story lines, from various eras, delivered in books that accompany each figure.

Kit Kittredge, spunky and a bit confused by the economic crunch around her, has been the central character in a half-dozen titles that have contributed to the sale of some 120 million books since the company was founded in 1986, said Ellen Brothers, American Girl’s president and a producer of the film.

“We approve all the marketing,” Ms. Brothers said, describing her company’s close involvement with the making and selling of the movie. And American Girl has been using its considerable reach to promote what it is calling “Kit’s Big-Screen Debut.”

The company’s mail-order catalog, a primary engine for sales, has a blurb promoting the movie on its May cover. Cities with American Girl retail outlets — New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas and suburban Atlanta — will get to see the movie early, beginning on June 20. That first round is being helped along on the Web with Kit’s movie blog and, at the Grove shopping mall in Los Angeles, with the giveaway of “Kit’s Home on Abbott Place,” an elaborate playhouse built by Pardee Homes as part of a benefit for the homeless.

Last Saturday mothers and daughters trooped through the siding- and stone-veneered structure to admire it, and to donate $5 for “opportunity tickets” — never say “raffle” — that buy a shot at taking it home. “ ‘Win Me?’ ” one mother gasped, reading a sign outside, “Oh, my God!”

Other plans include movie-night dinners at the in-store American Girl cafes, which begin to sound, at least a little, like the viewing parties that pushed “Sex and the City” over the top during its May 30 opening weekend.

Allie Mayer, a publicist for movietickets.com, said the service had seen “steady activity” since it began selling tickets for the early engagement last month.

Mr. Berney said a box-office success would be “a little bittersweet”: His company will remain intact only long enough to release its existing films, including “Kit,” “Mongol” and “The Women” (scheduled for fall). To date, the studio’s biggest box-office hit has been “Pan’s Labyrinth,” which took in $37.6 million at the domestic box office in 2006.

If “Kit” works, its success would owe something not just to the promotions, but also to the straight-shooting approach of a director, Patricia Rozema, whose earlier work includes “Mansfield Park” (1999) for Miramax.

“I don’t think you talk down to children when you make a movie for them,” Ms. Rozema said. She spoke in a telephone interview about Kit’s rather intricate on-screen problem, which include doubts about a father, played by Mr. O’Donnell, who leaves home in search of work, and no small difficulties with a newspaper editor played by Wallace Shawn.

Still, Kit preserves her G-rated innocence, something Ms. Rozema said had become too rare, even in films aimed at the young. (“Bratz: The Movie,” which was based on a doll line and took in about $10 million for Lionsgate last summer, was rated PG.)

“They don’t need to be rattled,” she said. “They’re rattled enough.”
