Hello Christian.....

Chace is firming as my favourite to play Christian Gray.  Just finishing the 3rd book, and he keeps popping into my head.........and still Felicity Jones as Ana.

As if I need any more reasons to love Diet Coke

Casting 50 Shades of Grey - Christian Grey

The book, is the talk of the town, well behind closed doors, between friends and anonymously online.  The film rights were pretty much sold before the first page was turned.  Now it is time for us to cast this baby.  It is one of those books, that you definitely have a picture in your head about what the characters look like, so get that image out of your head and into our comments please.  Here are some suggestions for Christian, clearly, must be hot and look good in a necktie.  Thoughts please.

Peace, Love and Misunderstanding

Being a fan of all things pretty, I was wondering today what Mr Chace Crawford has been up to.  As we all know he is still showing up on Gossip Girl every week but what else is doing, if anything?
Well, a movie as it turns out.  Peace Love & Misunderstanding which will be released in 2011.
Peace, Love, & Misunderstanding tells the story of Diane (Catherine Keener), an uptight New York City lawyer who is in desperate need of an escape after her husband asks for a divorce. Along with her two children, she takes refuge at her estranged hippie mother Grace’s (Jane Fonda) farmhouse, where she is exposed to a motley crew of free thinkers. What was meant to be a stress-free getaway quickly turns into a reminder of why Diane escaped her mother's hippie lifestyle in the first place, as the reunion forces her, her children, and Grace to find peace with each other and more importantly with themselves. The lovely Chace Crawford will star as a war-protesting butcher who catches the eye of Diane's politically active and intellectual daughter.

Jane Fonda - Peace Love & Misunderstanding

This movie has a great cast list so it might be worth a viewing - Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Rosanna Arquette, Kyle MacLachlan and the littlest Olsen sister, Elizabeth!
Oh and did I mention Chace Crawford?

When good boys go bad....... We like them more!!!!!

This is Chace's mugshot. Yes, as in he got arrested!! He was arrested for possessing marijuana, not much, but enough to put him behind bars for a short stint! Cool.

Saturday is Fantasy Day - the letter C

i was going to leave this until next Saturday, but C is kinda exciting....a couple of faves, a couple from our past, a couple that may make you giggle, and a couple where the laser will be pointing directly to the loins!!!!!.

It's official...

The remake of FOOTLOOSE is dead. Did it ever have a chance with no Zac, no Kenny, no Kevin and no 80's!!! I do feel a bit sad for Chace, there was alot of hype, so hopefully he will find another fun project to keep him busy!

A bit of housekeeping!

It has been remiss of me not to mention our latest poll. The boys of Gossip Girl. So who do you love??? Overwhelmingly, and scoring half the votes was Nate (CHACE CRAWFORD), who coincidentally has been named one of the 'most beautiful people of this decade' by Interview Magazine. (yes, we trust these people, they brought us half naked, dirty, muscly, grown up Zac) Zac was also named in the top 20 alongside Colin Farrell, Jake G, Natalie Portman etc

Coming in second place in a tie was Dan and Chcuk. Absolutely intriguing, I myself am a Rufus man, who placed last, but I guess this frees him up a little with not so much demand!!!


Am happy to take any excuse for a hot Colin pic!

New Chace

Great to see Chace Crawford mixing it up a bit lately. I have always loved the first two shots from VMAN mag a while ago but these new ones for Interview Magazine are fantastic.
I'm the last one to knock a pretty boy but I am pleased he's showing a bit more of himself lately.

Chace Me.

One advantage of heading off to the supermarket is the opportunity to flick through all the mags at the check out. Today, amongst the glut of Micheal Jackson stories and crap they're writing about the Twilight gang I stumbled on a particular photo that caught my eye.

I am not a huge Chace Crawford fan, preferring my pretty boys to be all things Zac but I must admit I stood with dropping jaw for far longer than appropriate when I saw this shot.

There are a lot of derogatory articles being written lately about the group of pretty boys taking over Hollywood with their perfect chiseled jaws, floppy hair and wide set eyes. I say the more the merrier. How can anyone in their right mind complain that there are too many beautiful men in the world?? I'm flabbergasted - sour grapes anyone.

Gossip Girl is Privileged

After the demise of our very, very favourite show - Gilmore Girls (all hail the Gilmore's) we consoled ourselves with the goings on in Alaska on 'Men In Trees'. The bastards at Australian television land saw fit to mess with the show and our joy was short lived.
We then discovered that Rina Mimoun, who worked on the last season of Gilmore Girls was the executive producer on a new show -PRIVILEGED
"It's very much 'What if the Gilmore Girls were teaching the Gossip Girls?'" said Rina.
Sounded good to us so we tried it on for size. Very enjoyable, of course not a patch on the Gilmore's but it filled part of the gap.

Where am I going with this you may be asking? Well....

It has been confirmed that Joanna Garcia, star of Privileged (which has been cancelled by the way) is appearing in a four-episode storyline on Gossip Girl as a love interest for Chace Crawford's alter ego, Nate Archibald.

Joanna Garcia will be playing the character of Bree Buckley, an irreverent, slightly evil Miss America-type who hails from a conservative Southern family. She will join the cast when it airs again next season.

How fun is that? From Gilmore Girls to Gossip Girl with one degree of separation, plus we will get to see more of Joanna and hopefully Nate will get a worthy storyline. It's all win-win.
