Filed Under: celebrity
Sep.03, 2010

David Keith Lynch who originally wanted to be an artist is an American filmmaker. When he was young, he was eager to become an artist, however, after five years of study, he decided to turn his attention to film.

Lynch’s films are known for nightmarish and dreamlike images and meticulous sound design. Over a lengthy career, Lynch has employed a distinctive, unorthodox approach to narrative filmmaking that has become instantly recognizable to many audiences and critics worldwide. It is now known as Lynchian.

He produced a whole host of cult classics – Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, and Blue Velvet. Lynch is arguably most associated, however, with the nineties television series Twin Peaks. Set in small town America the highly stylized program revolved around a murder mystery plot and provided the world with such style icons as Shelley Johnson, Audrey Horne and Donna Hayward, not to mention inspiration for countless fashion spreads across the past two decades.

His film and television projects have met with mixed responses; however, we are intrigued by his recent fashion contributions. When it comes to all things surreal and strange, he rules supreme and in recent years he has introduced his signature brand of eerie style to the world of fashion.

In 2007, on an exhibition entitled ‘Fetish’, David Lynch teamed up with the famous shoe designer Christian Louboutin. When Lynch commissioned Louboutin to design some shoes for the exhibition that he was curating, the two met and soon became firm friends. And when Louboutin decided to produce some fetishistic versions of his shoes he asked Lynch to take pictures to showcase them.

David Lynch also directed an advert for Gucci’s eponymous perfume that featured supers Natasha Poly, Raquel Zimmerman and Freja Beha Erichsen dancing to Blondie’s Heart of Glass. This was the first time he has dabbled in advertising. And after that, he advertises for many brands, such as Yves Saint Laurent, Adidas and Giorgio Armani.

He is considered as the Renaissance man of modern American filmmaking.  So don’t hesitate and go to see his films. You won’t regret.

Aug.27, 2010

Julia Fiona Roberts, born October 28, 1967, is American superstardom. She set foot into Hollywood after headline the 1990 romantic comedy Pretty Woman, which grossed $464 million worldwide. Her films, such as My Best Friend’s Wedding, Mystic Pizza, Notting Hill, Runaway Bride, Valentine’s Day ,The Pelican Brief and Ocean’s Eleven and Twelve have collectively brought box office receipts of over $2.4 billion, which makes her one of the most successful actors in terms of box office receipts. She has received two Academy Award nominations for Steel Magnolias in 1990 and Pretty Woman in 1991. And in 2001, she won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Erin Brockovich.

Interviewed by ELLE, when talked about her family husband Danny Moder, she said that the children became the shooting stars of him, of that thing we have. She feels very happy. She said” How lucky we are that we love each other so much that we burst into three pieces.”

Although she is the superstardom now, she never believes she has any acting technique. In her opinion, there is nothing more boring than actors sitting around talking about acting. When works with directors, she always asks their request. And then she will try her best to satisfy directors’ demand.

When mentioned behind the scenes with the cast of the Ocean’s movies, she felt excited, as she was the only girl there. George Clooney put those giant potted trees in front of her door so that she couldn’t get out to work. She prides herself on being punctual. She said” You didn’t want to leave your camera lying around, either, People were breaking into each other’s rooms, taking them, and let’s just say you didn’t want your mom picking up your photos at Walgreens!”

Julia Roberts is over 40 years old now. But she doesn’t feel so panicked as other actresses. She wants to have some idea of what I’ll look like before I start cleaning the slates. And also she would like her kids to know when she’s happy, when she’s confounded, when she’s pissed.

Jul.23, 2010

This Wed 21 July, Jennifer Aniston launched her new fragrance exclusively at the department store in Harrods.

The Friends star was signing bottles of her self-titled first fragrance in Harrods’ Georgian Restaurant from 1-2pm on 21 July

Jennifer has created a signature fragrance which is unique to her by working closely with Falic Fashion Group.

Jennifer mentioned that she wanted her fragrance to be a personal library of scent memories. Because she grew up in California, she distinctly remembers the scent of jasmine on summer evenings. She always loves night-blooming jasmine in her life.

As well as the US, Jennifer took inspiration from childhood holidays to Greece and days at the beach. “No aroma is quite so…exhilarating. The combination of the salty air and tropical oils reminds me of long sunny days on the beach – pure happiness,” she adds.

The floral fragrance, including rose, wild violet and Amazon lily dries down to a woody aroma of musk, golden amber and sandalwood. Jennifer took inspiration from the distinct smell of wood fires at friends’ houses on summer evenings.

Jennifer also hopes this bottle can reflect her personality. She graced the March 2010 cover of Architectural Digest. So her love of architecture was inspiration for the bottle. It references the flow of a Frank Gehry building combined with the fluidity and organic form of a cresting wave.

You can only buy Jennifer Aniston’s debut fragrance in Harrods and harrods.com, owing it is exclusive to them. Her fragrance is available in three sizes which are 30ml in £23, 50ml in £29 and 85ml in £36.

I believe Jennifer Aniston’s debut fragrance will be a success. The old saying goes “love me, love my dog”. So Jennifer Aniston’s fans will all like her fragrance. And also hope other people who are not love Jennifer very well can also like this fragrance.

David Beckham, a web chat on Yahoo

Jul.19, 2010

Yesterday, David Beckham, the fans of ED Hardy style, took part in a web chat on Yahoo. When asked if he and Victoria had made any major fashion errors, he replied that there were a couple of instances we regret, like when they both wore leather trousers and a jacket.

However, we believe that this is quite an understatement. Even then, we are grateful he’s brought it up so we could treat ourselves to another look at the outfit in question. In order to refresh your memory, the issue took place back in 1999 and the pair was at a Versace gala in London.

Now that Victoria Beckham has given up her former WAG style and conquered the world of fashion. Meanwhile, her husband, David Beckham, laid his love of sarongs to rest, it’s easy to forget that the duo have made some questionable sartorial choices over the years. But it seems that these mistakes are still fresh in the couple’s minds.

David also revealed that he and his fashion-forward wife set out to co-ordinate their outfits. He said, ‘Victoria looks good in anything. People always ask if we combine our clothes but sometimes one of us will be ready downstairs and the other will come down and we’ll have the same colour or type of outfit, which is just coincidence most of the time.’ We wonder if the leather look was planned or accident…?

Mel Gibson’s soon-to-be ex wife, Supporting Him in Court

Filed Under: celebrity
Jul.16, 2010

Mel Gibson’s soon-to-be ex wife, Robyn Moore Gibson, is siding with him over mama Oksana Grigorieva. Is it true? Or is it more than that?

In fact, reportedly, Robyn Moore Gibson has gone so far as to make a sworn statement supporting her cuckoo-bird ally. In a new development, she has proved that Gibson was never physically abusive during their 28-year marriage and was a lovely dad. However, as for why she said that, some people believe her motives may be not as altruistic as they appear.

Firstly, some details. According to TMZ and other reports, in Robyn’s new sworn statement, she makes two key points. As reported, she indicates that “Mel never engaged in any physical abuse of any kind toward me before, during or after our marriage” and that “Mel was a wonderful and loving father.”

According to People, Robyn Gibson’s statement was logged Thursday in family court. It is in connection with the ongoing custody battle between Mel and ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

Ellyn Garofalo, partner at the law firm Liner Grode wonder that may be Mel’s lawyers asked her to do it, and she agreed.

Grigorieva has accused the actor of getting violent in the presence of their baby daughter. Meanwhile, Robyn and Mel Gibson have seven children together.

But what are Robyn Gibson’s motivations for accommodating Mel’s attorneys? Apparently, if not the world, she wants the court to know that she can’t allow her children to be hurt while they were under her roof. If not, she may look like a poor mother or a woman with poor judgment.

A source close to her told People, that Robyn’s tried to stay out of this, but she wants to make sure there is no speculation of what happened within her family.

But, there’s also an indication that Robyn’s statement will be submitted to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office, which is investigating Mel for alleged domestic abuse against Grigorieva. If that is true, then Robyn’s motivations may be more about money.

“If she’s still relying on his income, and if he gets convicted of a felony, that could adversely affect his ability to earn that income,” says Tom Brown, managing partner and criminal defense specialist at the law firm Brown White & Newhouse. “She may have a financial interest in making sure that nothing bad happens to him.”

Whatever the reason is, we think Mel should consider himself grateful for any ally he can muster.
