British and Irish Manjoyment Comes to Toronto Film Festival
Lots of gorgeous men from our side of the pond travelled across the Atlantic to make an appearance at the Toronto Film Festival this weekend, following Dominic Cooper and Paul Bettany's lead from last week. Ewan McGregor and George Clooney continued their bromance promoting The Men Who Stare at Goats, and travelled from Venice Film Festival to Canada, as did Matt Damon and his wife Luciana. Cillian Murphy was joined Brendan Gleeson for the premiere of Perrier's Bounty, while Colin Farrell was on the promotional trail for Triage.
Megan, Amanda and Penelope Shine at Toronto Film Festival
Stars of the big screen were in Canada last night to premiere their movies at the 2009 Toronto Film Festival. Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Adam Brody and Diablo Cody came together for Jennifer's Body. Amanda changed outfits to join boyfriend Dominic Cooper for the premiere of his film An Education, which was also attended by his costars Peter Sarsgaard and Carey Mulligan.
Jennifer Connelly Creates Great Height In Style
Jennifer Connelly stars on the cover of InStyle's October issue, looking rather stunning in silver. While she dressed down in a t-shirt, jeans and biker boots for her interview, by the time she was in front of the cameras she was glammed up in head to toe Balenciaga — check out those scarily high wedges! She talked to the magazine about living in New York with her hubby Paul Bettany and their children, and also about her new movie Creation which she costars in with Paul — will you see it or skip it?
Jennifer Connelly Makes Time For Bikinis & Boys in Bora Bora
Jennifer Connelly showed off her bikini body while vacationing with her husband Paul Bettany and their sons, Kai and Stellan, earlier this week in Bora Bora. The family is enjoying a break before the boys head back to school this Fall, when Jennifer's latest round of ads for Balenciaga will also be out. She and Paul, who met on the set of A Beautiful Mind, will get to work as well promoting their latest movie together, Creation.
Creation: See It or Skip It?
Starring Paul Bettany as Charles Darwin, Creation tells the story of the publication of The Origin of Species. Described as "part ghost story, part psychological thriller, part heart-wrenching love story", the film depicts young Darwin's struggle between his revolutionary discoveries and his love for his deeply religious wife (Jennifer Connelly). Also starring Jeremy Northam and Benedict Cumberbatch, it is due for release at UK cinemas in Autumn 2009, so check out the trailer below and let me know whether you plan to see it or skip it.
Us Brits Are Amongst the American People's Choice!
Stars of the big and small screen got glam for the People's Choice Awards in LA last night. Carrie Underwood won three awards, and Paris Hilton and Jewel won me over with their pretty dresses. Nominees announcer Joshua Jackson wasn't in attendance unfortunately, but there were lots of other gorgeous guys to feast our eyes on.
Dakota & Anne Sparkle, Leo & Sean Smolder in Palm Springs
The Palm Springs International Film Festival kicked off last night with their awards gala attended by some of the most acclaimed stars of the year. They screened Dustin Hoffman's new movie Last Chance Harvey and honored Hoffman, Sean Penn, and the cast of Revolutionary Road among others. Thankfully a sun-kissed from Cabo Leo made the trek to represent his movie.
Bettany and Connelly Are No Longer Brooklynites
Actors Paul Bettany and Jennifer Connelly have finally sold their 9-bedroom, 3.5-bath Victorian townhouse in Brooklyn, which they put on the market in May. The Bettany-Connelly Prospect Park pad still stands in my mind as the one of the most impressive celebrity digs I've yet to take a gander at. Not only are the prewar architectural elements absolutely stunning and nonpareil, but also the couple made simply tasteful interior design choices that create bold, uncompetitive statements throughout the house.
Celebrate Female Solidarity With The Secret Life of Bees
Set in South Caroline in 1964, The Secret Life of Bees is a moving tale about female solidarity in the face of discrimination, based on Sue Monk Kidd's novel. 14-year-old Lily (Dakota Fanning) is trying to deal with her guilt over her role in her mother's death. When Rosaleen (Jennifer Hudson), Lily's housekeeper, is physically beaten when she tries to vote, the pair run away from Lily's abusive father (Paul Bettany) in search of a safe haven and answers to Lily's questions about her mother.
Paul and Sophie Share The Secret Life of Bees with London
Paul Bettany and Sophie Okonedo wrapped up warm for the premiere of The Secret Life of Bees at the London Film Festival last night. The movie's other stars who attended the LA premiere couldn't make it to London last night, but director Gina Prince-Bythewood was there to celebrate the UK premiere. Gina also wrote the screenplay, adapting Sue Monk Kidd's book for the screen, and the novel is one of my possible future PopUK book club reads: be sure to let me know what you'd like to read!
