The Party Scene Finally Livens Up
10 July 2009 2:12 PM, PDT | From Vanity Fair | See recent Vanity Fair news
She's Back. Natalie Imbruglia. After a slow couple of weeks on the social front (yeah, yeah, we know there was plenty of partying to be had in Paris the last few days, where those who had set up shop for the fashion shows included Oscar and Annette de la Renta, Coco Brandolini, Claire Danes, Bianca Brandolini d'Adda, Lauren Santo Domingo, Tatiana Santo Domingo, Dasha Zhukova, and Fabiola Beracasa), things finally picked up last night. The big Serpentine Gallery summer party, in London, stole the global party stage, but who could have forecasted that Natalie Imbruglia would steal the spotlight at the soirée? The 34-year-old singer (whom we had mostly forgotten about since her 1997 "Torn" single) has been making headlines this week because of a rumored romance with 24-year-old Prince Harry. Naturally this was the week's big topic of discussion in the U.K., as everyone loves a good cougar story.

Shopgirl – Movie Review
8 July 2009 7:16 PM, PDT | From AreYouScreening.com | See recent AreYouScreening news
The first thing you have to ask yourself is, “Do I want to hurt now, or do I want to hurt later.” That Shopgirl is a film which poses such a question is rather uninteresting really, but the fact that it poses the question while only sideways implying that the question applies to every relationship is an impressive textual delivery. Shopgirl, much like Lost in Translation, is the story of a May-December romance which ends with the young, but somehow more real for the experience woman parting company with the wealthy, worldly-wise, but incomplete for all that older man. If you think mentioning this spoils the film for you, there is no point in your watching it anyway. Mirabelle Buttersfield (Claire Danes) is a young woman from Vermont who has come to L.A. to do whatever it is people come to L.A. from Vermont to do. Unfortunately, we

Justin Timberlake serenaded the crowd, though the fun times quickly turned somber when the guests received news of Michael Jackson's death. Jt was one of the many stars to express his condolences over Michael's passing as everyone tries to absorb the loss of the extraordinary entertainer. View 5 Photos ›

Narcisco Rodriguez to Design Claire Danes' Wedding Gown

It’s good to have designers as friends. Especially when you’re getting ready to walk down the aisle. Claire Danes is gearing up for her wedding to Hugh Dancy, and has asked her longtime friend to design her gown. And that friend happens to be Narciso Rodriguez. Claire and Narcisco arrived at the Cfda Fashion Awards Monday night arm in arm. Claire said of Rodriguez that he’s “very cheeky and playful and funny, kind and dear . . . one of my dear friends. Any excuse to hang out with him is welcome.” She also revealed that he’s the designer...

16 June 2009 5:00 AM, PDT | From Popsugar.com | See recent Popsugar news
Bright colors were all the rage at last night's Cfda Awards in NYC. Blake Lively and Ashley Olsen could not have looked more different in their pink and orange respectively, but both ladies embraced a love of color. Diane Kruger also stood out in red and black even without her best accessory Josh Jackson on her arm. A very baby-bump showing Heidi Klum, Kirsten Dunst and Kerry Washington went more metallic. What do you think about all the ladies at one of fashion's biggest nights - find out who they're wearing and Fab's love it or hate it polls! It wasn't just about the women though, Justin Timberlake and Taylor Lautner both suited up as did the newest box office sensation Bradley Cooper still glowing from the success of The Hangover. Tallulah Willis looked right at home with the fashionable crowd kicking off her Summer internship at Harper's Bazaar with style.

Danes To Wed In September
9 June 2009 9:05 AM, PDT | From wenn.com | See recent WENN news
Claire Danes will be a first-time bride in less than three months - she's planning to marry fiance Hugh Dancy in France this September.
The couple attended a private dinner at New York's Montauk Yacht Club for a reading of author Jay McInerney's new book How It Ended - where they each took to the floor to read an excerpt.
But the 150 dinner guests, including celebrity photographer Patrick McMullan and designer Cynthia Rowley, were stunned when the pair used the opportunity to divulge details of their upcoming wedding, including plans to return to France for the nuptials - where Dancy proposed during a romantic holiday last December.
The Romeo + Juliet star, 30, has been dating 33-year-old Dancy since meeting him on the set of their 2007 movie Evening.

"People say my writing has an aphrodisiac effect," laughed Jay McInerney, "but this is ridiculous." The acerbic author was at the Montauk Yacht Club, where eye-catching Claire Danes and Hugh Dancy each read a story from his new book, "How It Ended," divulged they plan to marry in France in September, then closed down the party dirty-dancing to "Nobody Loves You When You're Down and Out."

Exclusive Interview: Bryce Dallas Howard on 'Terminator'
4 June 2009 9:30 PM, PDT | From CinemaSpy | See recent CinemaSpy news
When Charlotte Gainsbourg left Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins due to scheduling conflicts, director McG turned to another famous daughter of film royalty, Bryce Dallas Howard to replace her. In this fourth installment of the groundbreaking sci-fi franchise, Howard is Kate Connor, the wife of John Connor, played by Christian Bale, and a member of the resistance against Skynet and its army of Terminators. A veterinarian in Terminator 3, she has adapted her knowledge of animal physiology and become the rebel group’s resident physician.
Stepping into a part vacated by another actress is not a new experience for Howard. She landed the role of Fisher Willow in Tennessee Williams's Loss of A Teardop Diamond when Lindsay Lohan dropped out and, more controversially, Howard was cast by Lars Von Trier to replace Nicole Kidman as Grace in 2005’s Manderlay.

3 June 2009 5:27 PM, PDT | From Manny the Movie Guy | See recent Manny the Movie Guy news
Another generation, another "Hamlet" adaptation. This time, the William Shakespeare masterpiece is getting a makeover with a modern-day take ala Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet" with Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes.
In "Hamlet," Emile Hirsch is on board to star as the doomed prince.
"Twilight's" Catherine Hardwicke is set to direct from a script currently being adapted by "Philadelphia's" Ron Nyswaner. Dan Jinks and Bruce Cohen are producing.
Hirsch previously worked with Jinks and Cohen for "Milk," and the actor also worked with Hardwicke for "Lords of Dogtown."

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines (Blu-ray Review)
30 May 2009 1:11 PM, PDT | From Atomic Popcorn | See recent Atomic Popcorn news
Main Feature (1H 49M 6S)
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines had the unenviable task of following two of the most successful and critically acclaimed Sci-Fi films of all time. Regardless of what this had to offer it was on to a beating from the point of its conception. This is a special effects playground and was always destined for a Blu-ray release but there’s no doubt in my mind this has been timed to cash in on the expectations surrounding Terminator Salvation.
If you’ve already seen this film, and most of you will have, you’ll know that this completely fails to live up to the standards set in the first and second films in the series. For those who have somehow managed to avoid watching this film I will do my best to explain the many problems I have with this failed attempt at progressing the franchise.

We Braved The Rain And Celebrity Snubs At A Fancy Burberry Event
29 May 2009 11:27 AM, PDT | From MTV Newsroom | See recent MTV Newsroom news
By Kathleen Newman-Bremang
Ask any reporter who’s had to cover a red-carpet event and they’ll all probably tell you the same thing: Most of the time, it ain’t glamorous.
They’ll tell you to be prepared to check your shame at the door and get ready to throw some ‘bows in order to keep your spot on the carpet. Well, at least that’s the advice I got from seasoned MTV News vets, hip-hop editor Shaheem Reid and writer Eric Ditzian when I went to them for tips on covering last night’s Burberry event in New York City — and they weren’t kidding.
Last night Micaela Rogers, our rock-star production manager who’s just learning to become a shooter, and myself, news intern and reporter-in-training, packed up our gear and headed to the New York Palace Hotel for a red-carpet event featuring some big names like Orlando Bloom,

Vanity Fair's Hollywood ~ Episode 11 (2005)
26 May 2009 2:21 PM, PDT | From FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news
Missed previous episodes? See: 1995 , 1996, 1997, 1998 , 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004.
Vanity Fair briefly killed my enthusiasm for the "Hollywood project" when they nixed the traditional cover for 2009. But time heals most wounds and I have reanimated the project's corpse. 2004's cover had 13 already peaking actresses on it. How'd they follow it in 2005? With another batch of goddesses, 60% of whom had already graced their "Hollywood" cover. In the case of the C/Kates, it was now thrice. Was Vanity Fair running out of ideas? Given the idiosyncratic pool the covers regularly pulled from you'd think there were only 40 actresses in Hollywood... but then, it's probably all in who you know who represents you when it comes to face time here. It's definitely not only about the fame. Consider this: this cover series lasted from 1995 - 2008 and Angelina Jolie, Halle Berry, Michelle Williams and Tilda Swinton never appeared on them (just four chronologically appropriate examples off the

Terminator Salvation Review
22 May 2009 12:08 AM, PDT | From FilmJunk | See recent FilmJunk news
Terminator Salvation Directed by: McG Written by: John D. Brancato, Michael Ferris Starring: Christian Bale, Sam Worthington, Anton Yelchin, Bryce Dallas Howard, Moon Bloodgood, Common, Michael Ironside Getting handed the keys to the Terminator franchise could either be a dream job or your worst nightmare, depending on your point of view. Back in 2003, Jonathan Mostow faced the unenviable task of stepping into James Cameron's shoes and providing a "partly official" part 3 to the franchise that Cameron had created. Although he did have Arnold Schwarzenegger at his disposal in his last major on-screen role, the movie had little else to connect it to the previous films, and ended up being largely disowned by fans. When The Halcyon Company picked up the rights to the Terminator franchise a few years later, it seemed like the series was destined to be watered down even further, particularly with the selection of McG (Charlie's Angels) as a director.

Terminator Salvation (Review)
21 May 2009 10:26 PM, PDT | From SoundOnSight | See recent SoundOnSight news
Terminator Salvation Directed by McG This review contains Terminator series spoilers. With Charlie's Angels helmer McG becoming the third director to tackle the once-venerable sci-fi-action series concocted by James Cameron, we can at least be thankful that he's found an original way to screw up a franchise. Where most series end up with an entry lacking in drive or vision, we find Terminator Salvation seems to lack neither; it has a unified visual style, a ridiculous number of action sequences, and even a high-powered prestige star calling the shots. The truly fatal flaw here is that McG, through omission, has discovered the series' most important theme; its unflappable femininity. That's a problem that rears its head early on in this fourth entry, when it becomes clear that Helena Bonham Carter (as Sam Worthington's amorous doctor) and Bryce Dallas Howard (as John Connor squeeze Kate Brewster, replacing Claire Danes, who

Poll: The Many John Connors Of The ‘Terminator’ Series… Which Do You Prefer?
21 May 2009 1:00 PM, PDT | From MTV Movies Blog | See recent MTV Movies Blog news
Today’s release of “Terminator Salvation” marks the arrival of the fourth actor to play John Connor, son of Sarah Connor and the future savior of post-Judgment Day humanity. Christian Bale is the new guy, and trailers so far have suggested that he brings some of that “Batman” darkness to the role. Whatever you want to think about that unfortunate meltdown of his, this is a good pairing of character and actor.
Sarah (Linda Hamilton) is Skynet’s target in the first movie, and her protector Kyle Reese (Michael Biehn) is the man who turns out to be John’s father. John Connor doesn’t actually appear in the flesh until the second movie, “Terminator 2: Judgment Day.” There he is played by a teenage Edward Furlong, who manages to deliver a nice balance between whiny punk and future savior of humanity.
Furlong is replaced by Nick Stahl in
