Michelle Williams Brings Her Puppy Love to Hollywood

PopSugar — Mon, 10 Nov 2008 08:30:00 -0800

Michelle Williams wore a LBD to the 2008 American Film Institute premiere of Wendy and Lucy in Hollywood on Saturday. Michelle also premiered the film in NYC in September and her costar Lucy, the dog, already won an award at Cannes earlier this year. Michelle has been hard at work promoting her many movies before she gets ready to take a year off. Looks like Spike Jonze skipped out on joining Michelle at her red carpet event this time around but as things continue to get more serious with the couple it's wonderful to see the actress glowing and happy in her success.

Heath Ledger's Family Gives His Estate to Matilda

PopSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 02:00:00 -0700

Michelle Williams looked lovely at the premiere of Wendy and Lucy at the Ziegfeld Theater in NYC on Saturday night. We've enjoyed seeing her all Summer in Brooklyn with Matilda and her new relationship with Spike Jonze, but she's still honoring Heath's memory as the first donor to his scholarship fund. Elsewhere, Heath's father says that the family has decided to gift Heath's entire estate to Matilda since his Will was written before her birth and left everything to his parents and sisters. Sounds like his family did the right thing making sure Matilda is taken care of as she grows up.

Michelle Loves a Window Into People's Lives

PopSugar — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 14:00:09 -0800

Michelle Williams bundled up and did some reading while walking around NYC yesterday. The actress and her films have been getting a lot of buzz with award season around the corner, earning a few Independent Spirit nominations already and tomorrow could bring some Golden Globe recognition. In a recent interview Michelle talked about her movie Wendy and Lucy and what it meant to her. She said:

"It's a gift to be able to work in the exact way that you have always wanted to. I feel really lucky. The performances aren't performances, they're just like a documentary, you feel like you are spying on people, and that has always been the kind of filmmaking that I like... Personally I like seeing those kinds of movies. I find them comforting because they make me feel less alone."

Michelle's had a tough year, but she's looking on the bright side as she gets closer with Spike, concentrates on Matilda, and keeps Heath's memory in her heart.

Michelle and Matilda Skip Their Way Through the Winter Weather

PopSugar — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 09:00:00 -0800

Michelle Williams and her daughter Matilda were out for one of their routine walks in Brooklyn with a friend on Friday afternoon. Matilda kept the adults entertained with her skipping, though pretty soon she might trade the streets of NYC for those of LA. Michelle is nominated for an award at next Saturday's Independent Spirit Awards for her role in Wendy and Lucy. It's been a quite award season for her so far so we're hoping she heads west to make an appearance on the blue carpet.

Matilda and Spike Help Michelle Weather the Winter

PopSugar — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 17:00:42 -0800

Michelle Williams sipped a coffee while Matilda munched on a snack as the mother daughter duo took a walk in chilly Brooklyn yesterday. The ladies have Winter ahead of them, but there are plenty of sunny things to look forward to in 2009. Michelle scored a lead actress nomination for an Independent Spirit Award, with Wendy and Lucy and her film Synecdoche, New York earned an ensemble cast nod as well. Last night Michelle got her award season started at the Gotham Awards in NYC, and also made time for her man Spike. Hopefully with a hard year behind her, Michelle can spend the rest of 2008 enjoying Spike and Matilda and preparing for good things to come.

Michelle Opens Up About Heath

PopSugar — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 08:00:00 -0800

Michelle Williams has slowly been stepping back into the spotlight in the past few months, promoting her latest movies Synecdoche, New York and Wendy and Lucy, and she recently talked to Newsweek to help promote her films. The interview is both raw and sincere, with Michelle talking about living under a microscope and how she's handling Heath Ledger's tragic passing. Here's more:

On having her personal life so exposed: "It's such a funny line to walk as an actor," Williams says. "There's some great quote I think Dustin Hoffman gave when he was doing 'The Graduate': 'The more you know about me, the harder my job is'."
On Dawson's Creek: "When I was on 'Dawson's Creek,' I wanted to make work that meant something to people, serious work that made people less alone in the world. And I was thinking about that this morning in the shower-'Dawson's Creek' meant something to people."
On how she's handling Heath's death: "It's so sad. I guess it's always changing. What else can I say? I just wake up each day in a slightly different place-grief is like a moving river, so that's what I mean by 'it's always changing'. It's a strange thing to say because I'm at heart an optimistic person, but I would say in some ways it just gets worse. It's just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone. In some ways it gets worse. That's what I would say."

The interview must have been a difficult one for Michelle, but the strength and wisdom she's shown over the past year really shine through. Having Matilda and Spike Jonze in her life are hopefully helping Michelle find happiness in both her personal life and her career.

Michelle and Matilda Spring Into Summer

PopSugar — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 10:30:52 -0700

Michelle Williams is back in NYC after her whirlwind trip to Cannes and already returned to her favorite routine of walks with Matilda. The duo donned their Summer-y outfits for a trip to the Brooklyn Academy of Music with a guy pal, which left Matilda so tuckered out that she napped all the way home. Michelle has lots of new movies heading our way, from Synecdoche, New York, and Adoration to Wendy and Lucy, a road movie about a girl and her dog. She's already getting great reviews for her work in the film, so we're excited for much more Michelle up on the big screen.
