Re: Ailing Paul Newman turns over 120Million to Charity
It was really nice to see all the tributes to Mr. Newman. He was a little bit before my time so I don't know too much about him but it seems like most people see him as a really great person as well as a good actor.
All Newman's Products the proceeds go to charity. Paul Newman and Newman's Own products has generated hundreds of millions of dollars for charities, such as his Hole in the Wall gang, his camp for children with cancer/terminal illness. And it all started with some homemade spaghetti sauce.
Paul Newmans' Hud came out right around the time I was hitting puberty. That shot of him used for the movie promo led to my first ever lightning bolt of lust, so I have very fond memories of him. I've often thought that Jack leaning against the truck in BBM in a similar pose reawakened the teenager in me as BBM definitely jump started my aging libido.
^^I hear ya, M. I think it was Butch and Sundance for me tho. I know what you mean about Jack leaning against the truck, there's something about what he does with his hips . . . ;)
Paul Newman is a wonderful actor and remarkable blue eyes, like someone else we know. :) I like the charitable work he has done.
I've been observing the ongoing slow-coming-out of a same-sex couple, Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson, for some time now (see link below). For some reason, this makes me kind of sad, because I look at these brave girls and how happy they look these days, not hiding a thing, and I think that, given a bit more spine and hope, Jake and Austin could have been like them, instead of enmeshed in this incredibly depressing (there's no other word for it) bearding arrangement.
(And no, I don't think it's easier for lesbians than gay men in Hollywood. Straight men perving over your relationship does not equal approval.
I worry about Lindsay and Sam and why they are together. I've heard that Sam is a dealer/heavy drug user and wonder if this is why Lindsay is into her. I hope I'm wrong or that this is in the past. I also worry that Sam made no attempt to shield an obviously passed out Lindsay from paparazzi a while back. Sam was looking directly at the camera in the shots, so she knew the paps were there. I worry Sam is in this for the publicity. Maybe they have worked through some stuff. I hope they have. I like that they are just going around living their lives and don't feel they need to make a big announcement. Who you are is shown more in what you do than what you say anyway.
Just Jared has some new pix of Reese in Japan. I love this comment-
People are fcuking blind. This big is everything fug. Look how her eyes, nose, and mouth and all mushed together. It looks like her forehead and chin are trying to give eachother a high-five. Lmbao how in the worl can you be beautiful when your nose is touching your top lip!?
For some reason im not into them as a couple. Maybe it's for the reasons that Wicked named. I guess Lindsey will have to show me that she's serious about her work first before I can take too much notice of her private life.
How do I describe this guy? B list actor with a name that seems to cause some confusion. Very little television. Nope this guy is all about films. Big films, Top grossing films, independent films. Great actor but also underrated. Award winning but nothing big. On the set of his newest film he had a little thing going with a co-star. Nothing too blind-itemish about that. The co-star is married so that adds a little spice, but what really makes it blind worthy is the fact that this married B+ list co-star with A name recognition is a guy.
Hi everybody:) Today i want to smile together with you all and celebrate that my country has allowed same-sex couples to legally get married and have the same rights as straight couples. Gay couples are going to be concidered equally as straight couples when it comes to adoption and lesbian couples are going to get the opportunity to get pregnant (sorry, can`t remember that word, so excuse me)"without intimate contact with a man", ok, ha ha...you know what i mean:D The minus is some people working in hospitals might DON`T want to help them. Gay`s and lesbian`s might also get married in churches. The minus is priest`s DON`T HAVE TO marry them, if they don`t want...so you see, we`re not quite there yet. Step by step! Now, we join:Spain, Netherlands, South-Africa, Belgium, MA and CA, and there is one other country too. I knew it, but forgot. Anyone who remembers? Anyway, SMILE:)
Shia is now apologizing for a video where he called a friend the f word. Watch it here
His rep told E! “The videotape that is currently being circulated is several years old and captures Shia playing a game among friends in which he uses a derogatory word toward a friend. He regrets having used the word in any capacity and is very embarrassed that this footage is being seen by anyone.”
NG, that is awesome. Maybe I should move? Although I probably won't because I don't want to give the conservatives the satisfaction. I will stay and agitate.
Why isn't this a bigger issue?
Because the f word is not considered that bad by so many. If it had been the n word, it would have been a completely different story.
How young was Shia? Hopefully it was from a time when he didn't know any better, like a lot of kids, and he's learned and grown up since, and is sincerely sorry for what he said.
The sad part is, that kind of behavior is commonplace among young men. Shia shouldn't be singled out because now he's famous. The "f" word needs to be made as unacceptable as the "n" word, and that starts with society at large, in the home, and how boys are raised. The adults have allowed it. If you hear young boys talking like this, correct them. I don't know if young girls behave the same way or not?
gotta say, Ent Lawyer random pics [Reese] and Adriana Lima caption 'even Jake Gyllenhaal would date her' and alot of the reader comments about Reeke are right on.
I also believe that Shia so far is getting off easy. If he was a good guy he would apologise himself publicly. That was only a couple years ago. He is now a very public figure and if he cares about how people perceive him he should apologise. I hope he does. I would be a classy thing to do and peole would forgive. I have to say i dont see this as anything like what Isiah Washington did. Very different circunstances.
About Shia using f word....or anyone using any descriptive group words....ever noticed how groups can use their own words to describe themselves but thres hell to pay if anyone else uses them? My gay buddies call each other all the derogatory names in affectionate fun, just like how its "okay" for an ethnic group to call each other their names.
I have a group of friends - Asian, Mexican, Black, White, Athiest, Catholic, Jewish, straight and gay. You should hear us when we play poker!!
I always felt that Jay Leno felt comfortable in his Ryan Pholipe episode about the "gay look" because JL has personal/professional gay friends -no big deal.
Just watch eps of Will & Grace to see what I mean. They say stuff on there and its ok. But said on another show? No way.
Its all how its interpretated and sometimes it can be a real fine line between prejudice and joking in a comfortable manner IMO.

No, he felt comfortable because he's a homophobe who ridicules gays every night for the amusement of the nations fratboys.
I've been following Lindsay and Sam and am finding it quite sweet. I'm not really in the loop with other rumours re drugs and what not, but its never too late to get yourself together so hopefully love helps lindsay move in the right direction.
From Ted about Lindsay and Sam. I tend to agree with him.
Girl might not be a high school graduate, but she’s smart enough to know the paps are lurking everywhere, like Tori’s resentments, and that no gentle gesture goes unnoticed. But is Samantha smart enough to realize her BFF is more attention-slut than lady lover? Would she be the only one shocked to find out Lindsay isn’t gay?
If you don't say yes, I'll end up with that other blonde. And that's not gonna be pretty.
It's ok Butchie, Bill said this how the police hold my hand.

I love the Paul Newman pretzels! All the proceeds from Newman's Own go to charity, I think.

I don't think I've ever seen Hud, and I've always wanted to. Isn't that a Larry McMurtry screenplay too? :)
ReplyDeleteReese is in Toyko
ReplyDeleteCan she stay there?

ReplyDeleteShe's wearing fake hair.

Lindsay and Sam are brave
If Austin ends up with a role in Milch's Last of the Ninth, it looks as though he'll be filming in NYC.
ReplyDeleteThanks Special for the screen cap. Austin's got a really cute butt.

Her chin is way worse than manistons and lenos
Another one for Austin's pic.

ReplyDeleteFor some reason im not into them as a couple. Maybe it's for the reasons that Wicked named. I guess Lindsey will have to show me that she's serious about her work first before I can take too much notice of her private life.
At Crazy Days and Nights there is a blind item about a closeted married actor. Perhaps someone can post it.
