WINEHOUSE SET TO RE-MARRY FIELDER-CIVIL

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:36 pm

AMY WINEHOUSE is planning to re-marry her ex-husband BLAKE FIELDER-CIVIL = - and he’s insisting they want to "get things right" by exchanging vows a= gain.
The pair divorced last July (09) on the grounds of Winehouse’s adultery= , following a turbulent two-year marriage which saw them sink into drug a= buse.
The couple has since sparked speculation they have reunited, with a new= picture emerging showing them locked in a passionate embrace.
And Fielder-Civil has now spoken out to confirm he is back with the Reh= ab hitmaker - and they plan to exchange vows once again.
He tells Britain’s Heat magazine, "Amy’s wearing the Tiffany ring I bou= ght for her three years ago again. We’ve been meeting up and talking abou= t the old times. We talk about going away somewhere and getting married..= .. We’ve decided we’ll take things slowly. We want to get things right thi= s time. I need to find a career and be able to support myself. It wouldn’= t make sense for me to move in with Amy. We were addicts together and wer= e very co-dependent. It would be irresponsible for us to move in together= straight away. I have spoken to (Winehouse’s dad) Mitch and he was OK wi= th me. He knows we have to get on for Amy’s sake. My mum and brothers are= really supportive, too.
"We’ll get married again one day. But I don’t think we’ll run away to g= et married on a beach. This time I’d like it to be a proper wedding with = both our families there. Both me and Amy know we will be together some ti= me in the future… We both realise she has to concentrate on work now. A= nd I have to concentrate on getting my own life together."

GREEN SET FOR VALENTINE’S DAY

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 5:33 pm

ASHTON KUTCHER was proud to star in VALENTINE’S DAY - because movie bosse= s insisted on an environmentally-friendly set.
The actor heads up an all-star cast, including Anne Hathaway and Bradle= y Cooper, and was delighted when they were all handed personal stainless = steel water bottles to use during their time filming the movie.
And the cast and crew’s green credentials didn’t end there - bosses als= o commissioned reusable sets, as well as biodegradable plates and utensil= s.
Kutcher says, "We had a green set, so there was a lot of dedication and= hard work that went on in this movie to using solar panels and clean ene= rgy and recycling.
"Due to the fact that the movie was shot in Los Angeles actually made t= hat an easier thing to make happen. In some ways it worked out, and in so= me ways it didn’t, but I think every opportunity we have in our industry = to make what we’re doing a more environmentally conscious effort is a goo= d thing. So supporting a movie that was made that way, I think, can contr= ibute to that." Director Garry Marshall adds, "There are a lot of things wrong with our= environment, so to go green seemed to me to be a very good thing. It’s n= ot that big an effort. If we could do it, others can do it."
