ROTH: ‘CLOONEY STOLE MY MONEY’

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:01 pm

GRINDHOUSE director ELI ROTH has attacked GEORGE CLOONEY for "stealing his money" at the box office.
The Clooney-starring Ocean’s Twelve went head-to-head with Roth’s Hostel in 2005 and there are sequels to both movies released in the summer (07).
Although Hostel grossed $80 million (£40 million) worldwide, Roth is still bitter about the rivalry.
He tells Empire magazine, "F**k it, they stole my money with Ocean’s Twelve! Why am I paying George Clooney’s mortgage? "Hey there’s nothing in their movie that’s going to be as horrific as Hostel Part Two. If you want to see people gamble, go see Ocean’s Thirteen. If you want to see people gambling with their lives - and losing horribly - go see Hostel Part Two!"

JOLIE RULES OUT MARRIAGE TO PITT

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 8:01 pm

ANGELINA JOLIE has ruled out plans to marry partner BRAD PITT, insisting their children are what ‘binds them together’.
Jolie, 31, already has two failed marriages behind her: she wed Jonny Lee Miller in 1996 and divorced in 1999, while her union to Billy Bob Thornton ended in a 2003 divorce.
Pitt separated from his wife of five years, Friends actress Jennifer Aniston, in January 2005 - shortly before he began a relationship with his Mr and Mrs Smith co-star - and their divorce was finalised in October that year.
The superstar couple have three adopted children together: Maddox, five; Pax Thien, three and Zahara, two, as well as their biological daughter Shiloh, 11 months, and feel the bond they share as a family is enough for happiness.
She tells Reader’s Digest magazine, "We’ve both been married before. Our focus when we got together was family, and we are legally bound to our children. That really seems to be the most important thing."

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:58 pm

Dempsey says, "I hope I still make her swoon! "Sometimes I think, God, would Derek Shepard do this? Because I am certainly not a perfect male at this moment.
"Just trying to provide and communicate and let her know how beautiful and important she is to me - I think those things make her swoon."

HAMAS-LED NETWORK REFUSES TO BAN ‘PROPAGANDA’ MOUSE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:58 pm

LATEST: A television network run by Palestinian terror group Hamas has refused to remove a children’s program featuring a Mickey Mouse lookalike promoting Islamic domination.
Walt Disney’s daughter Diane Disney Miller attacked the Al Aqsa Television board for using the character to encourage children to fight against Israel and the U.S.
Palestinian Information Minister Mustafa Barghouti has warned that the show, entitled Tomorrow’s Pioneers, threatens "the Palestinians’ legitimate struggle against the (Israeli) occupation. I urged that Hamas suspend the programme and they have withdrawn it, because it was wrong to use a programme directed at children to convey political messages." But the network has vowed to continue to air the show. Al Aqsa chairman Fathi Hamad says, “Al Aqsa TV refuses this pressure and refuses to cull its programme or alter any of its content. This campaign of criticism is part of a plan orchestrated by the West and the occupying power to attack Islam on the one hand and the Palestinian cause on the other. We have our own ways to educate our children and any criticism of this approach is shocking interference in our internal affairs."

GREY’S ANATOMY star T.R. KNIGHT is happy with his decision to come out as gay, despite being warned it was a ‘bad idea’.

Knight tells US gay magazine The Advocate, "I remember saying to someone when I got one of those ‘don’t do it’ (comments) - I just remember hearing my voice being calm and saying, ‘No, it’s going happen. It’s going to happen. I’m just letting you know.’ "I made the decision to make a statement. I could have not (spoken up). I could have retreated. But I’m definitely happy I made the decision."

EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY CANCEL DATES

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:55 pm

Texan post-rock band EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY have disappointed fans by cancelling their entire UK tour due to a family illness. A sudden medical emergency involving a bandmember’s family member prompted the group to axe six scheduled shows over the summer.
A posting on the band’s website states: "We have had to cancel all of our remaining summer shows. We’re facing a serious illness in one of our families and traveling around the world and playing shows is just not an option for us at the moment.
"We are truly sorry about this. We’ll try and keep in touch about when any of these shows might be made up or when we might be touring again."

JOJO: ‘I CAN’T WAIT FOR PRINCE/WINEHOUSE COLLABORATION

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:55 pm

R&B star JOJO is delighted by the news PRINCE and AMY WINEHOUSE are to collaborate - as she idolises both stars.
The Leave singer admits she’d love to work with music legend Prince, although doesn’t think she’s high-profile enough yet to warrant a track with the Purple Rain singer.
And she insists she went on a one-woman PR spree in the US for Winehouse on her last visit to the UK.
She says, "One of my idols who I want to work with is Prince - although he probably has no idea who I am, and I doubt I would ever get to work with him.
He is amazing, I would love to work with him.
"When I was last in the UK a couple of months ago, I picked up her (Winehouse’s) album and brought it back home. No-one had heard of her, but I played it to my friends and I just thought it was great." Earlier this week (begs07May07), Prince invited Winehouse to join him on stage during his series of 21 London shows in August (07).

ANASTACIA’s new stepchildren were banned from her wedding to bodyguard Wayne Newton by his spurned former fiancee.

XZIBIT ‘IN AWE’ OF WINEHOUSE

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:52 pm

Hip-hop star XZIBIT is so disillusioned with the current state of the rap scene, he’s turned to British soul star AMY WINEHOUSE for inspiration.
The mc only had the chance to listen to Winehouse’s latest album, Back To Black, in full this week (begs07May07), but he is amazed at what he heard.
He says, "I hate rap right now. Underground hip-hop is good, but rap is just… whatever.
"I like Amy Winehouse. When I heard her record, I was floored (in awe). It’s music, real music.
"She’s from that era of Etta James and Billy Holiday, Miles Davis, even before Miles Davis. You know, that old, real soulful s**t. I think she’s got a good thing going." But the rapper laughs when asked about a possible collaboration between himself and Winehouse.
He adds, "No, I can appreciate music without trying to make it my own!"

ALBARN HATES FIRST AND FOURTH BLUR RECORDS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:52 pm

Blur frontman DAMON ALBARN is amazed the band became British pop legends because their first two albums are "awful".
With rivals Oasis, The Country House hitmakers ruled the UK charts in the 1990s, but Albarn insists he hates 1991 LP Leisure and 1995’s The Great Escape.
Albarn - more recently the frontman of cartoon band Gorillaz - says, "I’ve made hundreds of mistakes. I’ve made two bad records. The first record, which is awful, and The Great Escape, which was messy." The singer claims the Kaiser Chiefs - part of the new breed of British rock bands - are in danger of falling into the same trap.
He adds, "The Kaiser Chiefs’ new record sounds a bit like The Great Escape in that it sounds a bit empty. Sometimes records are like that if you try too hard to repeat your success."

Dead campaign

Posted in: Bizzare Stories — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 6:10 pm

An Indian man is campaigning to prove he is alive.
Lal Bihari’s uncle conspired with local officials to confirm his nephew’s death in 1976 allowing him to claim Bihari’s father’s inheritance.
In 1980 Bihari, from Uttar Pradesh, formed the ‘Union of the Dead’ to fight for people declared dead by relatives.
Bihari added ‘Mritak’ - which means dead - to his name and persuaded his wife to apply for a widow’s pension.
He even staged the kidnapping of his cousin so a criminal case could be brought against him - proving he was not dead.
Bihari failed to convince officials he was alive despite contesting a parliamentary election in 1989.
He said: "Even my physical presence in the electoral fray did not help me prove I was alive."
