| | | Kidman a record breaker | | Posted Monday, October 02, 2006 7:05:58 AM by Blog57 Team | | NICOLE Kidman holds the record for the most money paid per minute to an actor, according to the star-studded new edition of Guinness World Records, after she pocketed a reported $US3.71 million ($4.96 million) for a four-minute commercial for Chanel No.5 perfume.

| | | Winners get a grip, reveal personalities | | Posted Friday, September 01, 2006 7:04:46 AM by Blog57 Team | | How you hold your Emmy can say a lot about you. Like a Rorschach inkblot test, the way you cradle that golden goddess can pinpoint details of your psyche that even your mother can't pick out. At the top of the Sunday show host Conan O'Brien had this bit of advice for winners: "Don't say 'Wow, this is heavy.' Of course it's heavy. It contains the shattered dreams of four other people." But don't think they'll listen. The uncontrollable thump of the subconscious is much stronger than that note tucked in a tux pocket reminding you to breathe. Straight out of the Associated Press layman psychological lab comes this telling analysis of the hands that hold the Emmy. Megan Mullally Note how this winner for outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series points her thumb down in a tight one-handed grip.... | |

| | | Lurie puts up his dukes | | Posted Thursday, August 10, 2006 3:08:00 AM by Blog57 Team | | On a cool morning west of Calgary, director Rod Lurie straps on boxing gloves and steps into the makeshift ring with his actors. For Lurie, whose Resurrecting The Champ stars Samuel L. Jackson as a once-famous fighter living on the streets, boxing is a sweet science best described in actions, not words. If he can show his actors exactly what he wants, it means less time and money spent. Efficiency is a word Lurie mentions more than once. But he's also having the time of his life as the Calgary-based crew prepares for the next scene in a wooded area where a boxing ring has been erected and extras have been garbed in 1950s fashions. While the fights Lurie has choreographed are fictitious, the men performing them are the real deal. And it's not every day the 44-year-old filmmaker, who boxed at West Point naval academy, gets to trade a few friendly jabs with some actual champs.... | |

| | | Geena Davis Keeps Royals Waiting At Festival | | Posted Wednesday, July 19, 2006 3:03:27 PM by Blog57 Team | | Actress GEENA DAVIS kept PRINCE ALBERT OF MONACO waiting at the Monte Carlo TV festival last week (ends07JUL06) after a make up and wardrobe malfunction. The former COMMANDER IN CHIEF star attended the event despite her show being cancelled at the end of it's first season, but was half an hour late after fighting with her make-up artist. She fired the artist because she didn't like the bronzer being used and started over again before having a crisis with her dress zip. Spokesman PAUL BLOCH tells gossip site PageSix.com, "She used two or three different make-up people, but that is normal. She had a problem with the zipper on her dress, which delayed her. "But she and Prince Albert sat together. She's never been treated better and had a terrific time at the festival." 11/07/2006 17:32 .... | |
