We Fly High, No Lie, You Know This, BALLIN!

Angelina Jolie disembarks her private plane with her children Shiloh, 3, and Zahara, 4, after a completed flight on Friday in California.

Looks like Angie, 34, gave her two daughters a ride in the sky. What a cool mom!

The trio took off from Bob Hope Airport and flew for 24 minutes before landing at Big Bear City, about 100 miles east of Burbank. They flew to approximately 10,000 feet in the air!

Blind Items!

Sat, 11 Jul 2009 00:25:46 GMT

1) This celeb family went for a little swim along with another celeb family for a nice day at the beach. It was fun and wholesome, until one couple accidentally got too close to the other couple in the ocean, who happened to both be relieving themselves in the water. It was embarrassing for all, but mostly for the couple who decided to make the ocean their own personal toilet, and to do it together. It is not Halle Berry.

2) This actor is part of the ensemble cast of a current television show. You don’t usually see him in the tabloids because he has a wife and kid/s and is quite low-key in his personal life. However, if those tabloids knew what he was really up to, they might start following him 24/7. He has been having an extra-marital affair with a barely legal actress who appeared on his show. You wouldn’t recognize her name, but you would definitely know his. This bad boy should watch his step before his wife finds out.

3) Which freaky actor - who currently has a girlfriend - hit on a wardrobe consultant on the set of his latest film with the line, ‘I like those jeans. Can I have your number?’

4)This American teen TV star’s fall from grace has been documented all over the celebrity weeklies recently. But perhaps the saddest thing behind-the-scenes is that the actress doesn’t think she has any real friends so her entry into the London party scene was to try to lose her loner’s reputation - instead she descended into a drug spiral.

5)This female reality judge on an A list reality program is getting paid to endorse a product. The product has a very limited budget for publicity. It is about $200,000 for an entire year. Our reality star spent $20,000 of it in one weekend on hotels, room service and the long distance calls of her agent.

My guesses:

1) Victoria and David Beckham for the peeing couple:

2) Eric Mabius

3) Seth Rogan

4) Mischa Barton

5) Judge Judy

Italian Vanity fair honors Michael Jackson

Sat, 11 Jul 2009 00:06:23 GMT

the article is pretty long, but if anything interests you in particoular I'll translate.

Here's a highlight from what Nicoletta Mantovani, Pavarotti's widow, had to say:

(my own translation, sorry for any possible mistake)

We had to go to his home in New York and it was the first time we were going to meet him. What I knew about him is what you read on the mags: manias, masks on the face, and his terror for germs. I had told Luciano, who was always extroverted and outgoing, that most probably Micharl Jackson wouldn't have liked his strong handshakes, pats on the back or hugs he gave so freely; I told him not to be disappointed if Jackson would keep us at a distance, surrounded by bodyguards. "He's a special guy" I said. Michael opened the door wearing a white t shirt and jeans, he was alone, and immediately he came towards Luciano. He sat on the sofa in between us two and started talking with the ingeniutiy of a child. After a few minutes Luciano looked me from under his glasses and, in his native dialect, told me: "What kind of story did you tell me?"

Ashlee Re-Recording Michael’s Hits?

Sat, 11 Jul 2009 00:05:48 GMT

Hopefully this is all one big lie - but apparently Ashlee Simpson is in talks to create a Michael Jackson cover album.

Horrifying, yes, but it seems Simpson's father Joe thinks it would be a brilliant idea to have his youngest pop star daughter sing Michael Jackson songs on a cover album.

Apparently, Joe Simpson is pitching the idea to music executives - so it's certainly not confirmed yet. And the idea of Ashlee Simpson singing Thriller has Dlisted running for the hills:

I have a feeling that Simpson's voice singing "Thriller" would cause Michael Jackson to rise from the dead so that he could moonwalk all over her mouth hole! Maybe that's not such a bad thing after all.

Kournikova: I am not Jewish

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 22:51:57 GMT

G2 has been courtside lately at the opening games of the World Team Tennis league's Washington Kastles, where there's been lots of good dish to volley back at you.

On Wednesday, blond bombshell Anna Kournikova was in town with her team, the St. Louis Aces, for their match against the Kastles. The tennis glamour queen was unable to play due to a wrist injury, but we caught up with her at a press conference and asked about - what else? - her rumored engagement to heartthrob singer Enrique Iglesias.

"I don't normally talk about my personal life," she answered, trying to shield the ring the size of Texas she was rocking. "People are saying a lot of things. There is always something new."

When freelance photographer Carrie Devorah congratulated Miss Kournikova with the common Hebrew/Yiddish expression "mazel tov," the Russian beauty asked what that meant. When the photog explained it means congratulations and good luck, Miss K, according to Ms. Devorah, snapped, "I am not Jewish - can't you see my cross?"

When apprised of the tennis player's retort, a worried-looking Mark Ein, owner of the Kastles, declined to comment, saying he hadn't heard the reported exchange.

Maura Tierney illness delays 'Parenthood'

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 22:45:25 GMT

NBC's new fall drama series "Parenthood" has been pushed to midseason because of an illness of one of the stars, Maura Tierney.

The series, a contemporary reimagining of the 1989 feature, had been scheduled to begin filming July 27. The production start of the Universal Media Studios/Imagine TV-produced show is now tentatively scheduled for late September.

"Start of production on NBC Universal's new series 'Parenthood' has been postponed for eight weeks due to medical evaluation that valued cast member Maura Tierney is undergoing," NBC said in a statement. "The top priority for NBC, Universal Media Studios and Imagine Television is the well-being of Ms. Tierney. We are unable to release further details and ask that you respect her privacy at this time."

"Parenthood" revolves around four siblings (Peter Krause, Tierney, Erika Christensen, Dax Shepard) and their parents (Bonnie Bedelia and Craig T. Nelson).

As a result of the delay, NBC is making a change on its fall schedule.

"Parenthood" had been slated to premiere Sept. 23 and run in the Wednesday 8 p.m. hour.

With "Parenthood" pushed, new drama "Mercy," which was to take over the Wednesday 8 p.m. slot in midseason, will launch in the fall. The cast and crew of the medical drama have been summoned to start work on the series early to have it ready for a September debut. It is not clear yet if "Mercy" will air Wednesdays at 8 p.m. as NBC is re-evaluating its fall scheduling plans.

This is the second time filming on "Parenthood" has been put on hold under unfortunate circumstances. In April, production on the pilot was shut down for two days after NBC's vp drama Nora O'Brien died unexpectedly on the Berkeley, Calif., set of the show.

Tierney, 44, is best known for her 10-year stint as Dr. Abby Lockhart on "ER," for which she earned an Emmy nomination.

She also starred on another Peacock series, comedy "NewsRadio," and has appeared in a number of features, including "Insomnia" and "Baby Mama."

"Parenthood" -- whose cast also includes Potter, Sarah Ramos, Mae Whitman and Miles Heizer -- was penned by "Friday Night Lights" creator Jason Katims, who is exec producing with Ron Howard and Brian Grazer.

"Mercy," from writer/exec producer Liz Heldens and exec producers Gretchen Berg, Aaron Harberts, Gail Berman and Lloyd Braun, chronicles the lives of the staff at Mercy Hospital through the eyes of three nurses (Taylor Schilling, Michelle Trachtenberg and Jaime Lee Kirchner).

The cast of the series also includes James Tupper, Guillermo Diaz, Delroy Lindo, James LeGros and Diego Klattenhoff.

Robert Pattinson: Back to Work in Brooklyn

Showing a fierce dedication to his craft, Robert Pattinson was spotted on the set of his new project “Remember Me” earlier today (July 10).

The “New Moon” stud looked intensely focused as he strolled around the Brooklyn, New York City location sporting a baseball cap and a faded flannel shirt.

And it seems Mr. Pattinson may have been feeling some fatigue from his long hours recently, as he was carrying an iced Starbucks coffee beverage with him wherever he went.

Also on the set today was his cute co-star Emilie de Ravin, who also stars in the film along with Pierce Brosnan and Chris Cooper.

MTV Greenlights Series About Endowed Teenager

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 22:44:31 GMT

MTV has fallen on "Hard Times" and will air the new coming-of-age comedy series.

The teen series, whose plot is drawing comparisons to HBO's older-skewing new comedy "Hung," chronicles the hellish life of RJ Berger, a desperately unpopular 15-year-old.

When RJ's anatomical gift is dramatically revealed in front of the whole school, he goes from anonymous to famous and finds his first sliver of confidence. But he also has to deal with a best friend trying to capitalize on his newfound fame, a student body with no shortage of cruel jokes and an insane home life.

"Hard," from New Remote Prods., was created and executive produced by David Katzenberg, whose producing credits include CBS' "Survivor," and Seth Grahame-Smith.

MTV declined to comment.

Torchwood producer discusses Children of Earth and possibility of Series 4

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 22:35:48 GMT

Does switching from BBC Two to BBC One change the nature of the series?
Obviously we’re trying to appeal to a more mainstream audience going to BBC One, but it is still post-watershed. We actually take this series on a darker journey, if anything. But Children Of Earth is still the same show. Jack is still as cheeky and irreverent and sexy. Telling one big story meant that the story had more scale and reach than we ever had in series two, but no, nothing’s changed. It’s still the same Torchwood: action-packed, thrilling and funny, it’s got just about everything.

The Torchwood team is two members down on last year, how does that affect them?
Of course the deaths of Owen and Tosh had a huge impact on the team and I don’t think Jack, Gwen or Ianto will stop thinking about them, but it’s a brand new story with Torchwood thrown right into the middle of it from the very beginning so we don’t sit them around talking about the past. It’s like life - they’re just getting on with it. And the fact that they’re down to three people means that as a team they’re under more pressure than ever as they battle to save the Earth. But we do have Gwen’s husband, Rhys, who’s much more active and becomes a valued addition to the team - he has quite a big part to play in it and as it goes on he becomes more and more active.

Do any of the other secondary characters come into it too, like Gwen’s friend Andy the policeman?
Yeah, he comes into it in the latter part. There’s an amalgamation of all those characters on the periphery, like him, like Ianto’s family, who all kind of come together to help and aid in what we hope will defeat the alien at the end, and Andy is one of them.

Has having three different writers working on it brought different flavours to the series?
It has and it hasn’t. With Russell overseeing all of them, it still maintains a certain continuity throughout. Obviously it being one big story they had to intermingle, so we had copious meetings where we would all sit together. So while the specific scripts might each have a slightly different feel, the overriding continuity of it all has Russell’s stamp on it.

Visually, what kind of inspiration did you take for Children Of Earth? Where you looking at other thrillers?
When we set out we did initially think it would be nice to go down the kind of Bourne Identity route, make it very thriller-like. But after our first couple of tone meetings it was evident that actually that wasn’t the way that Russell saw it. Although between Euros [Lyn, the director] and I we did try and put a certain amount of our stamp on it, at the end of the day, as Russell said, it’s still gotta be Torchwood. It’s still got to be fun-packed; yes, it can be thrilling, but it’s still got to have the real Torchwood feel. Torchwood is a very specific feel, and to try to make any real changes to that russell felt would be a mistake. So although Euros did put a certain amount of his own directing stamp on it we were very careful to maintain the light-hearted, thriller-type, action-packed Torchwood side of things.

Did you do much filming in London?
We’d actually budgeted for a week in London but when it actually came down to it we only needed to go there for four days. But yes, in terms of scale we’ve got helicopter shoots over London, car chases through London. We shot at Battersea heliport, with artists having to be shipped out at Battersea heliport. We’ve shot John Barrowman on roofs in London - the classic shot of him on the roof, we’ve mirrored that a little bit by doing a similar type of thing in London. So it looks very filmy. We’ve probably got every element that you’ve seen in all of the other Torchwood episodes, all crammed into just five long one hours. And it is bigger and more epic in terms of scale.

Do we see find out any more about Jack’s past on Earth through historical flashbacks?
Our only flashbacks are to 1965, but that was a really fun thing to do. There’s little kids in 1965 costumes, soldiers in 1965 costumes, and some of our characters in 1965 costumes, and it looks fantastic. We shot out in the Brecon Beacons, out on the moors, at night for most of our 1965 stuff. It was just the most stunning scenery and when we were there it was snowing, so you had all the snow on top of the mountains and it was absolutely beautiful and really epic.

What was the most difficult thing to achieve, in terms of a day’s shooting?
Every day is a different challenge, but with things like the helicopter shoot, you’re relying on the weather. You’re bringing a whole crew from Wales down to London over three or four days and that’s your window to get a full day of helicopter shoot in. So logistically those kind of things are hard to shoot. Then there was an awful lot of exterior work. We had to shoot a lot of night work out in Cardiff Bay. We had to shoot in a big open quarry. At that time the weather was pretty horrendous and several times we had to cancel the shoot and reschedule - those kind of things are really sent to try you.

Do you have any idea what the future holds for the series?
Well of course we’re convinced there’ll be another series - there's an audience out there for it, so we're pretty sure there’ll be another series. Which format it’ll be in... I guess we’ll have to wait and see, because we’ve made no decisions yet. But yes, we’re quietly confident that there will be another series.

People talk much about Emma's Style and less about Tom's Girlfriend

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 22:24:21 GMT

Emma Watson's week in style

It's the battle of the Brits as Emma Watson overtakes Cheryl Cole in the style stakes.

Fashion is a dog eat dog world; it was only Monday of this week that we were raving about Cheryl Cole's sweet summer style... Now, four days later we have a new fashion crush. Hermione Granger (aka Emma Watson) has been working some spellbinding outfits while out on the promotional tour of the new Harry Potter movie, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and frankly, we're mesmerised!

First up the starlet chose a drop-waisted dress with embellished collar by American design duo Proenza Schouler and a pair of super-fierce platform sandals (top left) for a London photocall. Next up was Emma's rain dance down the red carpet at London's Leicester Square, dressed in a chiffon printed maxi by seventies fashion legend Ossie Clarke (top right). Then after a Transatlantic trip Emma dazzled on the David Letterman Show in a cream panelled number with black piping by Brit It-designer Christopher Kane (bottom left). And let's not forget the lust worthy Chanel accessories she's been sporting - the terribly patriotic quilted Chanel bag emblazoned with a Union Jack (bottom right) being our personal favourite.
The pretty Brit has grown into a fully fledged fashionista right before our very eyes, long gone are the Hogwarts school sweater days in favour of a super slick and dare we say, sexy look. We can't wait to see what Emma will be donning next, will it be Burberry or perhaps she'll go for a full on fashion war with Cheryl and steal her McQueen thunder? Who knows, but one thing's for sure - we can't wait to find out!

This is the second time Emma Watson has worn a piece from the Proenza Schouler Resort 2010 collection on the red carpet for her new movie “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince”.

The first time was when she attended the London photocall.

That dress was cute with a drop waist and a bejeweled neckline, for this occasion she opted for something a bit more adventurous.

She opted for this quite sexy haltered leather Proenza Schouler Resort 2010 dress with a black bodice, and a white skirt plus black strappy heels from the same collection.

This look might be a bit much for her die-hard young fans, but I love it.

It’s unexpected, it’s fresh, it’s risqué without being tacky. I don’t get a sense that she’s trying to be anyone else. Under all that leather she’s still Emma Watson.

I love the blown out hair. This was something that was missing from her other appearances.

I’ve been really impressed with all of her choices this week. They’ve been effortless, mature, tasteful and sophisticated.

Both times IMHO Emma wore it better

It seems that overnight Emma Watson has become a brand new sparkling icon for a new generation. Yes she's Squeaky Clean and clever, but it's the fashion that we're excited about. As her Harry Potter premiere tour kicks off, with vintage Ossie Clark, Chanel and Christopher Kane under her belt, Emma's proving that her style is worth watching. But at the New York premiere last night she upped her fashion credentials by once again wearing Proenza Schouler from their Resort 2010 collection - yes we're talking next summer here. The monochrome leather halter-neck dress was a sexier look in comparison to the relatively prim Kane, but when paired with simple sandals, a turquoise ring and enviable glossy hair, the overall effect is surprisingly ladylike. Whether Emma's dressing herself or is having a little bit of help, credit where credit's due - she looks amazing.

Emma Watson upstaged by evil Draco Malfoy's girlfriend at Harry Potter premiere in New York

It was round two as the Harry Potter stars descended on New York for the second red carpet event to promote the new film following Tuesday's world premiere in London.

As per usual, Emma Watson put in a head-turning performance and dressed in a risque all-in-one black and white leather halterneck dress.

However, her enchanting display was upstaged by a rival from the 'dark side' in the form of evil Draco Malfoy's (Tom Felton) girlfriend, Jade Olivia.

Miss Olivia, who works in the film industry, dazzled in a figure-hugging short grey floral dress.

The brunette was first pictured with Felton, 21, last July at the Dark Knight premiere in London.

With his arm wrapped lovingly around her waist, Felton co-ordinated his outfit with his girlfriend's, wearing grey trousers and a shirt with an undone bow tie.

The stars of the film are currently in the throes of a promotional whirlwind to plug the sixth movie, Harry Potter and the Halfblood Prince.

Radcliffe and his co-star Miss Watson have both made appearances on the David Letterman show in New York to promote the film, which is released in cinemas next Wednesday (July 15).

Meanwhile, Felton, who has posted messages on his Twitter page about being 'exhausted', dashed from the world Premiere in London on Tuesday for a press junket in Canada, before hitting the New York premiere last night.

CNTM: The top three talk.

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 21:55:00 GMT

Returning to the city where it all began -- and staying at the same hotel they called home no less -- was a surreal experience for the three remaining finalists on Canada's Next Top Model.

Back in Toronto to do media interviews in advance of next Tuesday's season finale, Linsay, Meaghan and Nikita spent a night at the Soho Metropolitan where they lived during the duration of the competition three months earlier. They didn't expect to be so overcome with emotions.

"I just started to cry," says Nikita, as she remembered all the fun they had had.

"The guy opened the door and grabbed my bag and I was like, 'Whew, here we go,'" says Meaghan.

"It's like going back to an old apartment. It was your home once," adds Linsay.

After a whirlwind ride that included working with some of the best designers and photographers in the industry, glamorous photo shoots and trips to The Bahamas and New York City, the girls returned home to resume normal life all while having to keep everything that had happened a secret.

"People knew I had tried out for Top Model so when I came back and my hair was cut and I was gone for a while they kind of were putting pieces together -- but nobody knew 100 per cent where I was," says Linsay.

Nikita recalls getting some weird comments about her super-short bangs from some new friends she made after returning home to Calgary, Alta.

"They didn't admit it to me until now ... but they were like, 'When we first saw you we were like why are this girl's bangs so whacked?'" she says with a laugh.

Once the show began airing in May it all made sense to everyone else but it didn't mean the girls could spill any of the details of the competition -- including who will be crowned the winner during next week's final episode.

"People ask but I just tell them they have to watch," says Meaghan.

"It doesn't bother me at all knowing and (other people) not," says Linsay. "Let them wait."

Clearing the air on Maryam and the rip

And while the girls don't have any regrets about what they said or did during the competition, they would like to clear up some stuff that happened with fellow competitor Maryam, who was voted off this week.

During a runway challenge wearing designer dresses made of bathroom tissue, Maryam reached over to help Linsay zip up her dress and it ripped. Maryam claimed it only ripped a small amount and Linsay herself tore it the rest of the way when she later tripped up the stairs. It resulted in a heated exchange in front of the judging panel that continued backstage, leaving Maryam in tears.

Linsay says she was just angry that Maryam had lied.

"If she just said right out, 'Yeah I ripped that dress' and told the truth about the damage she actually did it would have been done with for me,'" says Linsay.

Nikita and Meaghan were also shown imitating Maryam earlier in the episode, repeating the phrase 'Whaaat?' that Maryam had said after being asked a fake question about a sex tape at MTV. The two girls say it wasn't meant as a personal attack and that the three of them actually joked about it together.

"I just wish it was portrayed the way it actually happened. She knew. It was an ongoing joke," says Meaghan. "I wish it didn't look like we were personally attacking her."

"It wasn't against her or her accent or her nationality or anything like that, it was just jokes," adds Nikita. "And the fact that we were a little bit upset that she lied and we just wanted to make sure that the judges understood really what happened. We weren't trying to gang up on her. We love Maryam to death."

And even though they have been in touch with Maryam since the competition ended, they were planning on reaching out to her again now that the episode has aired.

"I think we might give her a call tonight," says Nikita.

Role models for girls

The girls say seeing themselves on TV has definitely been a weird experience.

"I don't think I'll ever get used to it," says Linsay.

"I don't think I will either," agrees Nikita.

Getting recognized on the street has also been an adjustment.

"Like when I go to IKEA and there's girls hiding behind racks looking at me behind toilet plungers," says Nikita with a laugh.

As well as getting recognized, the girls have also been receiving a lot of feedback through blogs and social networking sites from fans who have been watching them on the show, in particularly Linsay, who hails from Sucker Creek reserve near Edmonton, Alta.

"I was really surprised but a lot of young Aboriginal girls, even their parents, their grandmas, grandpas, lots of people have been like, 'You're a great inspiration' and just wanting to let me know that they're proud and they have a positive role model," says Linsay.

No matter what Tuesday night's finale brings, Linsay, Meaghan and Nikita all say modeling is in their future and are still so glad they were a part of Canada's Next Top Model.

"One hundred per cent," says Meaghan.

"No regrets at all," says Nikita.

"I'd do it all over again," says Linsay.
