Brenda Song and Megan Hilty Dish regarding their Lives as Disney Fairies Posted: 17 Aug 2011 10:38 AM PDT The Suite Life on Deck star Brenda Song and Megan Hilty from NBC’s upcoming Smash are now Disney fairies! Brenda and Megan are the newest ladies to join the fairy family — along with other Disney celebs, including So Random‘s Tiffany Thornton and Zendaya from Shake It Up.
The lovely actresses will be featured in a special exclusively on the Disney Channel, where Tinker Bell and all of her fairy friends in Pixie Hollow gather for the legendary Pixie Hollow Games – the Fairy version of the Olympics. Celebuzz caught up with the actresses at their recording session to see what it really takes to be Disney Fairies. Garden Fairy friends Chloe (Brenda) and Rosetta (Megan) are first-timers when it comes to the Pixie Hollow Games, and they’re on a serious mission to break their fellow garden fairies’ long-standing losing streak to win it all! Rosetta is a garden fairy who hates dirt, while Chloe is a newcomer to the Disney Fairy circle. Together, they’re about to go against the odds and bring it to the fairies! How does it feel to be a part of the Disney Fairy franchise? Brenda: It is so amazing. First of all, it’s every girls dream to be a fairy. When this came about, I was like how could I not do it. Megan: It’s awesome. Ever since I was a little girl I wanted to be a Disney Princess. A Disney fairy is just as cool, so I’m very excited. Do you think you can relate to your fairy? Brenda: I feel like I never know if I’m going to like it until I try it, and that’s kind of Chloe. Life is too short to not try something and put everything into it. That’s how Chloe is. That’s what we have in common. Megan: Absolutely. [My character] doesn’t really dig the dirt so much, which is kind of ironic because she’s a garden fairy. I think I would be a lot like her … but I hope I could be a lot like her and turn it around for my friends. How do you portray your character using just your voice? Megan: I’ve always been fascinated by voiceovers and it takes a completely different skill set. You can’t rely on any of the physical stuff, so you have to really convey everything through your voice. I just find that fascinating, especially as a singer. It’s just something I’ve always wanted to do. Your fairies have their own fashion statements, what’s yours? Megan: I never go anywhere without four or five inch heels. I care a lot about my nails — my toenails and my fingernails. I feel like they always have to be at least clean looking. I don’t think I have a staple anything because I like to change things up. Don’t miss Chloe and Rosetta and all of their fairy friends’ exciting adventures during the premiere of the Pixie Hollow Games special on the Disney Channel this fall! |
Demi Lovato wows fans with ‘Skyscraper’ exhibition at Do Something Awards Posted: 17 Aug 2011 10:13 AM PDT The 18-year-old songstress – whose ongoing battle with issues stemming from bipolar disorder was recently made public – took to the stage at last night’s 2011 Do Something Awards to deliver a breath taking performance of her new hit single Skyscraper.
Although the special award ceremony – which recognizes young people under the age of 25 who have done outstanding work in the communities and around the world – doesn’t air until this Thursday, August 18th, Lovato’s special – her first TV performance since exiting rehab – was so good that it earned her a standing ovation, reports on Twitter stated. A video (posted below) of Lovato’s Skyscraper performance at the Hollywood Palladium has made its way on to YouTube, but let us warn you in advance that the quality isn’t the best. While the audio captured is decent and Demi sounds amazing, true fans are better off waiting for the show to air on VH1 this Thursday to see the starlet’s latest triumph. |
Julia Roberts looks remarkable in a swimsuit at 43 as she unwinds on household vacation in Hawaii Posted: 17 Aug 2011 10:09 AM PDT She was recently at the centre of a row over airbrushing use in beauty commercials but it is clear that Julia Roberts is pretty much picture perfect. The 43-year-old Oscar winner put her enviable bikini body on display yesterday, showing off a figure women half her age would be jealous of. The Pretty Woman star looked timeless in a blue two-piece as she relaxed on the beach with her family during a Hawaiian getaway.
The actress has clearly taken good care of herself over the years and still looked toned and taut as she spent time splashing in the ocean with her children and relaxing on the sand. Julia spent most of the day getting tanned in just the dark blue tropical patterned string bikini but late covered up to protect her skin with a white shirt and sarong wrap. She also donned a straw hat and large sunglasses to cover her face as she lay under a make shift tent she cleverly made for her children to play in. She even took a dip in the water in her clothes, trying to cool off from the searing temperatures. The actress was joined by her husband of nine years, cameraman Daniel Moder, and the couples three children, Twins Hazel and Phinnaeus, five, and son Henry, four. The children appeared to be enjoyed their time at the beach, playing in the sand and learning how to body board as their proud parents looked on. Despite her recent movie success – Larry Crown netted over $60 million at the box office in it's first six weeks – Julia has recently found herself at the centre of an airbrushing scandal. Ads featuring the beauty were banned by the Advertising Standards Agency in the UK following scores of complaints saying that they were misleading. The L'oreal and Lancome ads, which also featured model Christie Turlington, had been digitally altered to make her complexion appear flawless. L’Oreal admitted that certain ‘post production’ techniques had been used on the image of the actress. But it insisted the picture was an accurate representation of her ‘naturally healthy and glowing skin’. The ad claimed the foundation ‘recreates the aura of perfect skin’. The brand claimed the product was the result of 10 years of research and suggested the science was the subject of seven patent applications. The actress was reportedly paid around £15million to be the face of the Lancome brand. However, she is, perhaps, an unlikely ambassador for the company. Last year, the 43-year-old star and mother of three condemned the obsession with beauty and youth as ‘shallow’. |
Dakota Fanning and Tom Sturridge act together in Effie Posted: 17 Aug 2011 09:39 AM PDT Dakota Fanning has landed the lead role in Effie, an original script from Emma Thompson. Deadline also reveal that Tom Sturridge and Thompson's husband Greg Wise will co-star, along with Julie Walters, Derek Jacobi and Edward Fox. Richard Laxton (An Englishman in New York) is directing the period drama, based on the marriage between Euphemia Gray and famous critic John Ruskin in the 1850s.
War of the Worlds and Twilight star Fanning, 17, will play Effie, whose marriage to Ruskin (Wise) was never consumated due his irrational disgust of her body. Suffering in a loveless marriage, the actually beautiful Effie finds passion with Ruskin's protégé, the painter John Everett Millais (Sturridge). Thompson herself plays Lady Eastlake, who takes Effie under her wing, while Fox is in talks to play Sir Charles Eastlake. Walters and Jacobi has signed up for Ruskin's brow-beating parents. Carey Mulligan and Saoirse Ronan were previously courted for the title role, with the long-planned production delayed by a copyright infringement court case by Gregory Murphy, whose play The Countess also focused on the Ruskins. The privately funded film will shooting in London, Scotland and Venice this October. Don Rosenfeld said: "It’s Emma Thompson’s first original script after doing several fine adaptations, and it gets to the heart of Victorian England. The script for Effie was always brilliant, but sometimes these things take time." Thompson won the Oscar for her 1995 adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, and went on to script her Nanny McPhee films. She'll next be seen as Oh in Men In Black III. Former child star Fanning has the final Twilight films Breaking Dawn – Parts 1 & 2 coming up, as well as The Motel Life opposite Emile Hirsch. The Boat That Rocked star Sturridge has been busy with On the Road and Junkhearts. |
Aishwarya Rai: Six months pregnant Posted: 17 Aug 2011 09:36 AM PDT Aishwarya Rai, whose pregnancy has made headlines, was spotted looking radiant at the sets of a commercial for Lux. Looking stunning in a Manish Malhotra gown, the six months pregnant actress showed off her baby bump.
Buzz is that the diva wrapped up her shoot and joined hubby Abhishek Bachchan in London. Though the baby is due in November, Ash is making sure that she fulfills her professional commitments before she gets busy with her motherly duties. Surely, after losing Madhur Bhandrakar's Heroine, she doesn't want to lose her market value as the ad queen. |
Jay-Z talk about Beyonce Knowles: Beyonce Knowles is the next Michael Jackson (Video) Posted: 17 Aug 2011 09:35 AM PDT Like any supportive spouse, Jay-Z only has praise for wife Beyoncé’s professional endeavors. Obviously Mr. Knowles is a little biased, but let it be known he is not afraid to publicly gift his boo with flattering comments that will likely raise eyebrows across the music industry or send fans into a violent protest. In the latest of Jigga’s audacious statements, he’s compared B to the late Michael Jackson. “What I’ve learned from her is similar to what I learned from [Michael Jackson]—and I know that’s blasphemy to compare the two because Mike was such an innovator—but I think she’s like the second coming,” Jay announced to radio station 99 Jamz. “Y’know, the hard work and dedication that she puts into her shows. It just makes you want to work harder at your own craft.
She’s like a machine.” We can’t disagree with the latter, as we put Beyoncé at No. 6 on our Popdust 40 (ahead of Jackson at No. 24) and are regularly have to stop all our work just to properly digest her live performances. This month, she’s been given the honor of appearing on the cover of InStyle‘s September issue, adorned in gold stars, proving that fashion can also be a very literal medium. Her photo spread is accompanied by a lavish behind the scenes video whose dramatic music makes it look like an outtake from Kate Middleton’s dressing room moments before the royal wedding. Still, is this all enough fanfare to help (prematurely) declare her the next King of Pop?
Such a headline-begging quote from Jay is extremely well-timed, given both his recent album release and Bey’s continued 4 promotion. Despite the reactions seen in her bevy of impromptu drop-ins on fans and fearlessness when it comes to the stage dive, by comparison, Beyoncé has many, many more record sales to go before eclipsing MJ, with the current fickleness of the music industry working against her. Her personal legacy might need some work, too, as her charmed life looks scandal-free to the point of boring (save for those forgotten DC members, the secret marriage to Jay and firing her daddy) when next to Jackson’s transfixing and puzzling evolution. So at 29-years-old the diva may have significant work to do, but she’s arguably close to Jackson when it comes to commanding an audience. Please allow her headlining performance at this year’s Glastonbury Festival to act as our defense that Jay might be right. |
Gossip » Report: Brad Pitt "Blowing Off," Hardly Speaking With Angelina Jolie Posted: 16 Aug 2011 01:22 PM PDT On August 6, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie celebrated their son Maddox's 10th birthday. But there wasn’t much celebrating to be had between them. The Jolie-Pitts sat in the orchestra section and reserved extra seats for privacy to see the hit musical Wicked at London's Apollo Victoria Theatre. Lucky for the other patrons that they did so. Why? Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie A source at the theater tells OK! (yeah, we know): "Maddox looked so uncomfortable after about 20 minutes and tried to get his parents' attention – while his sister Shiloh was scared and crying." "Brad and Angelina turned very tense the whole time. They hardly spoke, and as soon as the show was over, they went their separate ways." That about sums up Brangelina these days. The wedding buzz may swirl around the couple, but they've been leading separate lives in London as Brad films his zombie thriller, World War Z. When he’s not filming, sources say he spends off-hours with pals, in particular a mysterious young assistant who we’ve reported on before. "Angelina is seething!" the insider says. "When she rearranged her schedule and flew to London to be with Brad, she imagined they'd be having romantic dinners and hanging out together on the set, and he's basically blowing her off." In Angie's view, Brad is basically a bad boyfriend. "They had plans; then he's left her hanging at the last minute," the source says of the pair. "For instance, they were supposed to go to this French restaurant.” “Angie got all dressed up. Then he called and canceled." Photo: Fame Pictures
