Dear female celebrities, please stop wearing catsuits...unless you're playing Catwoman!

5 hours ago | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »

By now, most of you have seen the photos of the heinous sparkly catsuit worn by Jennifer Lopez on New Year's Eve. Basically, the gal looked like Catwoman...if the Batman villainess had been styled by Carson Kressley. But it was further proof that no one should wear catsuits unless they are in fact playing Catwoman. That means I'm giving a free pass to Eartha Kitt, Julie Newmar, Michelle Pfeiffer and Halle Berry. But Beyonce and Kanye gal pal Amber Rose, you are on alert: No More Catsuits In Public! No one can make them work. Also, they're not practical! »

Top 50 Performances of the Decade (Female)

As with the male list, I didn't include any 2009 performances (let the year settle first) though there is at least one that would obviously (x 50) be here if I did...

"And it's time my luck changed. And it's time something went right for me!"

-"Julia" makes a plea for a surprise Tilda Swinton nomination this year.

Please Note: This list should not be mistaken for an updated 'Actresses of the Aughts' chart. [editors note: I may attempt to return to that massive project in a definitive way after this year's Oscar race is complete]. How you feel about someone's entire career can be markedly different than how you feel about individual turns and an actress whose skill you may admire might not hit you as hard emotionally as she hits others.

The Observer interview: Rupert Friend

1 January 2010 6:46 AM, PST | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »

He's been feted for his appearances with Johnny Depp and Michelle Pfeiffer and is soon to open in the West End. Yet the media only want to discuss his relationship with Keira Knightley. No wonder he is wary says Elizabeth Day

Rupert Friend already knows how this interview is going to be written. "You start off with a humorous anecdote about meeting me," he says, as if reciting a shopping list. "Then you end on something that neatly refers back to the beginning. It's so boring." He sits back in his chair, a small smile on his face.

It seems fair to say that Friend, 28, has developed a fairly healthy contempt for journalists. He tells me that he refuses to read any newspapers because they are saturated with meaningless celebrity trivia and he seems to believe most of us who work for them are hopelessly ignorant.
