Our true love




On the cover of HEALTH magazine this month. And, disappointingly, she does actually sound pretty healthy. I have been known to confuse Lauren and Lorelai, and truly expect them to almost be the same person, so I was a little shocked after reading this article to find Lauren, eating brown rice and tuna, making her own juice drinks and doing much exercise everyday. Things I doubt Lorelai would have ever considered! Anyway, she sounds pretty happy and mentions boyfriend Peter Krause several times, so that must be going well. Yay!!!


On which celeb inspires her the most: “Sandra Bullock. She looks really great and not fake. And I think she has dignity and has handled her public life really well.”

On feeling body confident: “Well, part of my job is pretending. And I’ve honestly never led with my looks. I’ve always thought my strengths were I’m smart, and I have a good sense of humor. I definitely struggle with feeling confident…I always still feel like I’m in high school: ‘Did I wear the right thing? Do I look OK? Did I walk funny?’”

On what trend she’s not into: “I’m not a Facebook or Twitter person. I still write letters and send invitations on actual stationary.”

On the first show she’ll pick to watch off TiVo: “It’s a TiVo toss-up between real estate shows and Mad Men. I also love Glee. I’m a geek for a TV musical, too!”

The Vow

In The Vow (out Valentine’s Day 2012), Rachel McAdams stars as a woman who suffers a traumatic brain injury in a car accident and wakes up to find the past five years of her memories erased. During that time, she had married a handsome, loving man (Channing Tatum) — but now she has no idea who he is. “We really are the sum of our memories. When that’s taken away, what do we have left?” says director Michael Sucsy (HBO’s Grey Gardens). “It’s a romantic story about a guy who has to win back his soul mate.”


Aaaaah!  Sigh.....

When Rachel McAdams is the patient and Channing Tatum is the man trying to win her back how can this film fail to tug at our heartstrings.


Add a good dollop of Scott Speedman and you have the recipe for the perfect chick flick. 
There is another reason this film will be interesting for those of us that are Australian - The gorgeous Sam Neil is in it and lets face it - being a New Zealander just means we claim you anyway, but the other interesting casting in this film is that of Jessica McNamee.
She of Packed To The Rafters and Dancing With The Stars fame!!  This is the role that she left Rafters for - the lure of Hollywood was too strong.


‘The Vow‘ is based on the real-life story of Arizona couple Kim and Krickitt Carpenter who were married in 1993. Two months after their marriage, the couple’s car was hit from behind by a truck, leaving Krickitt in a coma and with amnesia after coming out of the coma. They later chronicled their story in a book called “The Vow: The Kim and Krickitt Carpenter Story‘, and the film is based on their book.

The Beek Is Back



Following on from James Van Der Beeks hilarious 'Funny or Die' videos, the Beek has found himself fielding offers for comedy roles.  He has always been highly sought after for dramatic roles but it looks like he has opened up a whole new career for himself.

This season he will co-star in the  TV comedy pilot -Don't Trust the Bitch in Apt. 23.-    The show centers on June (Dreama Walker), an earnest, honest, optimistic girl from the heartland who is forced to move in with Chloe (Krysten Ritter), a sexy, unstable New York City party girl who has the morals of a pirate. James will play Chloe's best friend James Van Der Beek, a heightened version of himself in the vein of Neil Patrick Harris' stint in the Harold & Kumar movies and Matt LaBlanc's starring role on the comedy 'Episodes'. The role, originally named after and destined for former 'N Sync singer Lance Bass, is being completely rewritten for Van Der Beek.

Such a Tease


It may not look like much but get ready all you Twi-hards - this is the latest still that has just been released today from the set of Breaking Dawn!!

It's from the Isle of Esme...aka where Edward and Bella finally do the deed!
The film company is doing a fine job of teasing it's fans.....First, we got a shot of Kristen's hand grabbing some feathers, and for those of you who haven't read Breaking Dawn, feathers = sex.
Then we got a shot of Rob and Kristen in bed together, also on honeymoon we assume, and now we get a teaser of the Isle of lust..  Nice work - those Twi-hards must be frothing at the mouth by now.

Wouldn't Have Picked It

Just found out that Alex Pettyfer's  mother attended the same boarding school as Channing Tatum's mother, Gennifer Tatum. The two woman have been best friends since the age of thirteen.


Alex's family is very close friends with Channing Tatum's family, so close that the two families spend almost every major holiday together.

Wouldn't mind tagging along on that holiday!!!



Endless Love.......

Episodes starring Matt Leblanc

We talked about this new series awhile ago (click here for a refresher) and now it's about to air. See 'Joey' talking about it below. i think it looks kinda fun.



And coincidentally, another of the FRIENDS alumni, is also starring in his new series MR SUNSHINE. It has now aired it first ep and has done reasonably well. A little bit of trivia for you, the woman who plays the love interest of Matt Perry, Andrea Anders, in MR SUNSHINE, is the real life girlfriend of Matt Le blanc. A little kooky!!!

Big News In Smallville!!!

Those of us who are Smallville obsessed have just breathed an enormous sigh of relief.

After nearly a year of will-he-or-won’t-he speculation, Michael Rosenbaum finally agreed to reprise his role as Smallville‘s Lex Luthor in the two-hour season finale.



“I’m delighted to return for the series finale, I’m simply doing it for all of the fans out there who made Smallville the great success it is. I appreciate all of their passion, their relentlessness, and even their threats. Ha ha.” said Michael.
"I can’t wait to hug the old crew back in Vancouver one last time and see all of my old friends once again. Oh, and for Lex to become the bad-ass he’s destined to be.”

That has made my day because how on earth can you contemplate wrapping up the Smallville story without Lex Luthor?
