Forget something, Meg? Ms Ryan steps out without her bra in New York

July 23, 2008 |11:27 | Gossips  By : Team X

Actresses are often accused of being uptight, but it seems Meg Ryan is quite happy to let it all hang out.The 47-year-old sported a laidback look for a day out in New York with a casual blue T-shirt, windswept hair and sunglasses. There was just one accessory she seemed to have forgotten... her bra. She may have been in need of some support, but Ryan was clearly enjoying herself as she wandered the streets of New York's Soho with 15-year-old son Jack Henry.The pair were seen fooling around taping each other pulling faces and doing silly dances. 

Mother-of-two Ryan also has a three-year-old daughter Daisy True, whom she adopted from China in 2006. The actress, who is best-known for roles in When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle, is set to the return to the big screen after a three-year break to care for her children. She leads an all-female cast in the remake of George Cukor's classic 1939 film 'The Women' and joins Antonio Banderas in comedy 'My Mom's New Boyfriend', released later this year.

 

Portrait of an empire builder

July 21, 2008 |11:35 | Gossips  By : Team X

Like Frankenstein's monster, the emperor Hadrian, whose cult is the subject of the British Museum's magnificent exhibition, has a patchwork body, composed of exhumed chunks that don't quite fit together. As you climb the stairs in the gloomy mausoleum constructed above Smirke's circular reading room, you might be approaching an altar.

 In fact, you arrive in Frankenstein's operating theatre, where the scattered fragments that will make up Hadrian are due to be sutured.

 A wrapped leg, muscles bulging, still lay on the floor when I had my preview of the show; nearby was a colossal foot snapped off at the ankle, less an appendage than a battering ram. On a plinth, Hadrian's baleful marble head, exhumed, like his leg and foot, only last summer in south west Turkey, waited to be lowered into place when the rest of the body was pieced together.

 

My Mom's New Boyfriend Movie Review

July 19, 2008 |11:36 | Gossips  By : Team X

Grown-up son living at home becomes angry and frustrated when his mom brings a new guy into the picture. Wait, didn't I just see this movie? Literally, a week ago?

Turns out My Mom's New Boyfriend has some differences with Mama's Boy, though it sticks closely to the overall shoddy quality level. This time out it's not a straight-up case of a son feeling betrayed. Writer/director George Gallo (DysFunktional Family) throws in a crime caper too. Henry (Colin Hanks) hasn't seen Mom (Meg Ryan) in three years due to his undercover duties as an FBI agent. When he returns home with a fiancee (Selma Blair), he finds that Mom hasn't just lost hundreds of pounds, she's also turned into a raving sexual lunatic, too. No sooner has Henry made his old bed than Mom gets mixed up with Tommy (Antonio Banderas), a known art thief... who Henry's been assigned to spy on!

Such sweet Zorro! The musical isn't a turkey - so who is the man behind the mask?

July 18, 2008 |11:32 | Gossips  By : Team X

It was tipped to be a turkey, but Zorro opened this week to rave reviews. So how does the hero measure up? PETRONELLA WYATT crosses swords with the man behind the mask.Sitting in a dressing room in London's West End, I'm pulsating with excitement. I am about to meet Zorro.  

First created in 1919 by American pulp fiction writer Johnston McCulley, the iconic saviour of the oppressed in 19th-century Spanish California has buckled his swash ever since, most notably in the 1940 film The Mark Of Zorro starring Tyrone Power, in the 1957 eponymous TV series and, more recently, in the 2005 Antonio Banderas movie The Legend of Zorro, in which Catherine Zeta-Jones falls for his black mask and derring-do. Now, though, Zorro is trying something different. He is singing and dancing in a lavish new musical which was tipped to be a turkey, yet which opened to rave reviews at the Garrick Theatre this week.

Holding out for a heroic swordsman

July 17, 2008 |13:08 | Gossips  By : Team X

Hollywood's 1998 celluloid take on Zorro appears pretty naff when pitched against today's blockbuster heroes, souped up as they invariably are with CGI. But Isabel Allende, the Chilean author who revived the swashbuckling justice fighter in her eponymous, authoritative 2005 novel, believes that Zorro doesn't need any technological wizardry to hold his own against the big boys.

'Zorro was the first action hero,' she says, referring to his 1919 pulp-fiction origins. 'Superman, Spider-Man and the rest all came after him and are a copy of his character. All the others may have modern technology and magic powers but there's something about Zorro that makes people feel they can be him. You can never be Superman but, given the right circumstances, a mask and a sword, you can fight for justice.'

All this should stand Christopher Renshaw's musical production Zorro, the latest incarnation of the heroic swordsman, which opens tonight, in good stead.

M&S boss Stuart Rose

July 9, 2008 |12:39 | Gossips  By : Team X

Marks & Spencer boss Sir Stuart Rose is not accustomed to fierce criticism so Wednesday's annual shareholder meeting is likely to be a novel experience for him. For a number of years after stepping in to fight off a takeover bid from Sir Philip Green in 2004, Sir Stuart was lauded by investors and retail experts alike.

He was credited with refocusing and re-energising the business, giving it cachet among younger, more fashion savvy customers and making it more profitable. But these bouquets have turned to brickbats in recent months. First, Sir Stuart faced accusations in March that he was becoming too powerful after he surprisingly agreed to combine the role of chairman with his existing position of chief executive. Then, only last week, he was on the defensive again having to explain a sharp fall in sales in recent months as M&S felt the full impact of the slowdown in consumer spending.

The Next Generation' Mister Independent

July 5, 2008 |16:02 | Gossips  By : Team X

Antonio Banderas has nothing on our new Don Juan of Meerkat Manor: The Next Generation. Zorro most definitely makes his mark tonight. I swear, if the family-swapping keeps up the torrid pace it has, I’m gonna need to create one hell of a flow chart.These Spoilers are Commando friendly. You have been warned.

After quite the harsh winter, at least in terms of quality and quantity of food, the stage has been set for one heck of a smorgasbord. With their newfound strength, five of the Whisker males band together and set off to find some quality ladies.This week, we turn our attention to Zorro, the man of the hour. With quite the life experience, he tackles and overtakes a poisonous beetle with relative ease. Can he have the same luck with the ladies as a rover?

Zorro and his younger Jazz Quartet brothers spot foragers ahead, but being that they’re Commandos makes the possibility of hooking up slim at best. Young Duke makes the mistake of being too headstrong to start and blows their cover. The boys make haste and chase. Nikita, however, is determined to keep the rovers at bay. Round one goes to Nikita, but for Zorro and the Jazz Quartet, they know it’s a marathon and not a sprint.

New on DVD: 'Fool's Gold'

June 18, 2008 |13:17 | Gossips | Movies   By : Team X

Really, Meg Ryan and Antonio Banderas? Is the direct-to-DVD comedy "My Mom's New Boyfriend" (PG-13, $24.96) truly the best work you're getting these days? We recommend Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey pay close attention; if they keep making mediocre romances like "Fool's Gold" (PG-13, $28.98), they may wind up facing the same fate.

Martin Lawrence has a little more success with the raucous reunion comedy "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins" (PG-13, $29.98), while Jack Black livens up Michel Gondry's occasionally amusing "Be Kind Rewind" (PG-13, $27.98). But Ryan Reynolds should consider himself lucky that the alleged comic fantasy "Chaos Theory" (PG-13, $27.98) even made it into theaters at all.

"Fool's Gold" out on DVD

June 17, 2008 |12:56 | Gossips | Movies   By : Team X

Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson try to strike movie gold a second time with the romantic action comedy "Fool's Gold."

The duo from "How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days" is back together, playing a former couple thrown back together by circumstance.

He's trying to help a millionaire uncover buried deep sea treasure, she now happens to work for the same millionaire. Add in some bad guys after the same treasure and you've got "Fool's Gold." It's rated PG-13.

Martin Lawrence tries to find out if you can go home again in the comedy "Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins." He plays a small town guy who's made it big as a TV self help guru who takes his new family back to his hometown for his parents' 50th wedding anniversary. Lawrence gets a rude awakening from his down home family, who are determined to remind him of his roots one way or the other. This one's rated PG-13.

Meg Ryan's made several hit comedies with Tom Hanks. Now, she's made one with his son, Colin. "My Mom's New Boyfriend" casts Ryan a formerly heavy woman who drops a ton of weight and picks up a new boyfriend in Antonio Banderas. The hitch is that he's an international art thief and Hanks is the FBI agent assigned to track him. If you don't remember this one in theaters that's because it's a direct to DVD release. It's rated pg-13.

David Duchovny leaves his alien chasing days behind him to chase skirts in the cable TV series "Californication." The first season hits DVD this week. He plays a burned out novelist who moves with his daughter from New York to California to re-energize his writing and reclaim his ex-girlfriend. But he faces other female distractions along the way.

Antonio Banderas Launches His First Scent For Women

June 16, 2008 |14:09 | Gossips | Movies   By : Team X

Antonio Banderas is launching his own scent - for women. The Latino hunk is premiering his first fragrance for women.

"Blue Seduction for Women" is the 47-year-old heartthrob's fifth scent that bears his name but his first for women. Following the success of "Blue Seduction for Men," he teamed up with Puig Beauty U.S.A. to bring out the women's version.

The scent of Seduction is described as combination of water-based fruits and violets that result in a fresh and pure scent. The middle notes are rose and jasmine over raspberry with an oriental accord and an overall sugary note.

The perfume, which is packaged in a transparent glass bottle that resembles the reflection of light on water, is set to retail at $21.50 for the 1-oz. eau de toilette spray and $30 for the 1.7-oz.
