We may have watched in awe and amazement as Anne Hathaway joined the 2009 Oscar host Hugh Jackman in a song and dance routine at the awards ceremony in LA, but it certainly didn’t do the actress’s career any harm as it now appears that Hathaway is about to land a momentous role.

The Oscar nominated Anne, is now in line to play Judy Garland both on stage and screen in the upcoming film and legit adaptations of Gerald Clarke’s 2000 biography “Get Happy: The Life of Judy Garland.”

Hathaway, who is 28 years old, is 20 years younger read more ....

Point at me and I’ll slap your face!

Oh dear! The Ruski’s are in fighting spirit, once again, and this time its not a cold war, its extremely hot!

The Russians are all up in arms at the site of an American hero, (albeit in the movies) slapping the face of a Russian soldier so now members of Russia’s Communist Party are calling for a nationwide boycott of the new Indiana Jones movie, saying it aims to undermine communist ideology and distort history.

Its appears they cant let go of a time when they believed they were the superior read more ....

Could it be possible that we may actually not get to watch the creme de la creme of Hollywood elite congratulate each other for being so darn special? All thanks to a bunch of pesky writers who actually think they should get PAID for their work?

Reese Witherspoon, Cameron Diaz and Sienna Miller last year on the red carpet (dig those braids Sienna!)

Unless someone comes up with a solution at the 11th hour, it’s hard to imagine any of the high-wattage nominees crossing an actual picket line in their most glamorous finery. That’s just such a party foul.

Jack Nicholson may be furious with Heath Ledger for stealing his role in the new Batman movie, but we just have one thing to say to Heath… “Take out your gum, man!”

The dashingly disheveled actor was on hand the other night at the fabulous I’m Not There Bob Dylan tribute concert in NYC, sporting his trademark I’m-scruffy-but-cute look as he introduced a few of the acts. Someone must have told him about his snapping gum reverberating throughout the Beacon theater after his first appearance - the second time we got a glimpse of him he seemed to have spit read more ....

It was not only Elizabeth I who had a ‘hurricane in her’ but the leading lady in the movie of the same name. Cate Blanchett has revealed to FemaileFirst.co.uk that she also has a hurricane in her at the mere mention of Clive Owen’s name.

Cate has been all ‘wobbly at the knees’ for her new leading man, Clive, since seeing him in the 2001 movie, Gosford Park, in which Owen landed the role of Lord Stockbridge’s valet.

When the opportunity arrived to play romantically opposite Clive, as Sir Walter Raleigh, Cate’s reaction was very obvious when she said: “I read more ....
