Stars Come Out After Midnight For This Is It UK Premiere
It was midnight when celebs including JLS, Westlife, Mel B, Harry Connick Jr and Keisha Buchanan walked the red carpet for the This Is It premiere in London's Leicester Square. The Jacksons attended the LA premiere, but there were simultaneous screenings in eighteen other cities, including the capital! The film is made up of footage from the rehearsals of the tour Michael Jackson was preparing for before he suddenly died, although it's causing controversy with some fans who believe that his ill health was edited out.
New in Town: Lovin' in the Cold
New in Town is packed with a lot of bad, wrong-headed moves including small-town stereotypes, predictability, conventionality, and in one bizarre scene, hard nipples. Despite a talented and likable cast with wonderful character actors like J.K. Simmons and Frances Conroy, this romantic comedy was probably doomed from the start due to a script that can't decide if it wants to be Fargo, Norma Ray, or Working Girl.
Movie Preview: Renée Zellweger Is New in Town
The trailer for the romantic comedy New in Town, starring Renée Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr., seems to tell the whole story, and it looks like a predictable story at that. As the plot description states, "Renée Zellweger stars as a Miami-based consultant whose latest assignment, to restructure a manufacturing plant in small-town Minnesota, causes her to reconsider her professional and personal objectives once she settles into her new life."
And yet, if it's so predictable, why did I laugh out loud a few times while watching the trailer?
TV Tonight: Living Proof on Lifetime
Raising awareness and funds when it comes to fighting breast cancer is only half the battle. Tonight's TV movie on Lifetime, Living Proof, shows that for the doctors and scientists working on a cure, the fight has just begun.
Starring Harry Connick Jr., Living Proof "is the true story of oncologist and researcher Dr.
Renee Opens Up About Her Breast Cancer Scare
Amanda Bynes and Harry Connick Jr. attended the premiere of their new Lifetime TV movie Living Proof last night in NYC. Renee Zellweger was the executive producer on this project about Dr. Dennis Slamon, played by Harry, who developed the breast cancer drug Herceptin.
MLP, Alec, Whoopi, and Daniel Help Everything Come Up Tony
Radio City Music Hall was bursting with stars of the stage last night at the 2008 Tony Awards. The glitz and glamour were everywhere as some of the biggest names in Broadway came together to celebrate each other. Mary-Louise Parker was a highlight as usual, though I'm not sure what to say about the Counting Crows' Adam Duritz on her arm.
Renée Is Covered All Ova' in Manitoba
Okay, so that rhyme is a bit of a stretch, but Renée Zellweger does deserve some props for braving the freezing cold temperatures filming her new movie, Chilled in Miami, in Manitoba, Canada yesterday. While Renée gets a pretty cute costar in Harry Connick Jr. for this film, nothing quite compares to her Leatherheads duo of George Clooney and John Krasinski. Not too much longer to wait for that one, finally — April is just around the corner.
Stars Get Frisky Premiering P.S. I Love You
The hot guys (ugh, other than the mustache) stole the show at last night's premiere of P.S. I Love You in LA. It seems like Gerard Butler and Jeffrey Dean Morgan were pretty into each other, too, judging from the red-carpet game of grab ass (love it).
Movie Preview: Gerard Butler, Hilary Swank in P.S. I Love You
Back when this movie was a part of my tearjerker movies Fall Movie Preview post, there was no trailer available, but I was looking forward to seeing what the tone of this movie would be. Now, judging from the newly released trailer, it looks a little sappy, but also cute and endearing — if you're in that kind of mood. Plus, I recently learned that Swank injured herself during a scene in which Gerard Butler is stripping, and somehow that makes me like the movie more.
Renee Zellweger and Harry Connick Jr. Chill in Miami
As the title suggests, these two are in negotiations to star together in a movie. The "fish out of water comedy" is titled Chilled in Miami and "centers on a Miami businesswoman who's transferred to the sticks of Minnesota."
The original title for this project was 32 and Single, so I'm certainly relieved to see that at least they changed that up (because, you know, it's the 2000s now and being 32 and single isn't all that unusual or tragic).
