Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:08 pm

Reformed supermodel NAOMI CAMPBELL’s community service wardrobe has lead to a huge demand for Christian Louboutin boots.

Campbell explains, "One my first day I wore a Ralph Lauren coat, a cashmere shawl and Christina Louboutin boots. Christian got 12 hundred orders from that day.

BECKINSALE: ‘HOLLYWOOD LOOK IS RIDICULOUS’

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:05 pm

KATE BECKINSALE has heralded the physical attributes of Hollywood stars as completely unattainable and unrealistic.
THE AVIATOR actress believes normal women shouldn’t aspire to look like A-list stars, because no amount of surgery or stylist could make them look like celebrities.
She says, "I don’t think you can aspire to it, nor can I.
"Everybody is retouched, stretched, lengthened, slimmed and trimmed. I could look at a picture of myself from the past and think, ‘Why don’t I look like that now?’ It’s because I never have."

RUSSELL MISSED OUT ON GRINDHOUSE GREATS BECAUSE OF DON JOHNSON

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:02 pm

KURT RUSSELL was thrilled when QUENTIN TARANTINO asked him to star in his new GRINDHOUSE movie PLANET TERROR - because he missed out on roles in similar films to DON JOHNSON in the 1970s.
Russell admits he was always in contention for low-budget action movies, but he often lost out on roles to MIAMI VICE star Johnson.
And, though he’s well aware he wasn’t Tarantino’s first choice to play villain STUNTMAN MIKE in Planet Terror, he’s delighted he can now, at last, add a ‘grindhouse’ project to his resume.
Russell says, "I interviewed for quite a few of those movies so it’s interesting for me to sort of hook up with Quentin on this because we talked about some of the great grindhouse films, many of which I was going up for.
"There was just a group of guys like, for instance, Don Johnson, who I know did MACON COUNTY LINE or RETURN TO MACON COUNTY LINE (editor’s note: it was 1975 film Return To Macon County Line). Because of my age, I’m sure that’s something I probably was up for at the time. That was a grindhouse movie.
"That was a movie that played around those theatres. That was an example.
They weren’t necessarily slasher films and they weren’t necessarily horror films. They were all different kinds of shows."

LAWSUIT: ‘CLEANER THREW OUT £700,000 OF BEATLES RARITIES’

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 2:56 pm

Record label EMI has launched a lawsuit against a cleaning firm for allegedly disposing of £700,000 ($1.37 million) worth of rare BEATLES photographs.
The suit, filed at the High Court in London, claims a cleaner for Crystal Services binned seven Beatles photos - including the only surviving copy of the photo on the PLEASE PLEASE ME album cover - and 452 transparencies and negatives in January 2001.
EMI claims the valuable memorabilia was in cardboard boxes clearly marked ‘Not Rubbish - Do Not Remove’ in an office in Manchester Square, London.
The lawsuit reads: "The cleaner removed the photographic material and disposed of it placing it for compaction in a waste compactor and collection by refuse collectors.
"The compacted waste was removed by refuse collectors and despite EMI’s best efforts the photographic material was irretrievably lost." EMI’s suit goes on to claim Crystal boss DAVID REES and the firm’s JACQUELINE BUTCHER admitted the following day that the cleaner was inexperienced and had only just been hired.
However, Crystal dispute this: "Mr. Rees was apologetic. EMI was the company’s customer and he responded to the complaint sympathetically.
"However, Mr. Rees had no personal knowledge of the incident and was accordingly incapable of making the alleged or any admissions in respect of it on behalf of Crystal.
"The cleaner subsequently resigned from Crystal’s employment of her own accord because she was so upset by the complaint. She was not dismissed."

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 2:56 pm

Members of rock group GREAT WHITE have filed legal papers in a bid to distance themselves from those responsible for a 2003 nightclub fire which cost 100 people their lives.
Bandmates MARK KENDALL, DAVID FILICE and ERIC POWERS have asked to be dismissed from lawsuits stemming from the tragedy, which took place after an ill-advised pyrotechnics display went awry.
The three rockers insist they had no knowledge of the fiery stage show and feel they shouldn’t suffer just because they were on the same stage as others responsible for the blaze at The Station nightclub in Rhode Island.
Kendall, Filice and Powers filed court papers on Thursday (05APR07) seeking to be removed from the case.
The band was sued in federal court by fire survivors and victims’ relatives.
The group’s tour manager is in prison after pleading guilty to igniting the pyrotechnics.
