KATE HUDSON'S AMAZING MUSICAL DEBUT!
____________________________________________________________________________
She's hot, she can act and as we've just discovered... she can sing!
Rom-com queen, Kate Hudson has made her musical debut with Ron Fair's remix of 'Cinema Italiano' for her latest film, NINE.
The video clip for the song, which was written exclusively for the film, shows a sexy glittery Kate seductively showing off her dancing and singing talents.
NINE is the vibrant and provocative new musical from director Rob Marshall (Chicago) based on the seven-time Tony Award-winning Broadway musical of the same name. It has an all-star cast more dazzling than the array of sequined costumes featured in the film.
This musical extravaganza follows the life of Guido Contini (Daniel Day-Lewis), a world-famous film director, as he reaches a creative and personal crisis of epic proportion, while balancing relationships with the numerous women in his life. The women include his wife (Marion Cotillard), his mistress (Penélope Cruz), his film-star muse (Nicole Kidman), his confidant and costume designer (Judi Dench), a young American fashion journalist (Kate Hudson), the whore from his youth ("Fergie") and his mother (Sophia Loren).

What can i say about Ian Ross, simply One of the nicest guy you'll ever meet and for me i had a lucky opportunity to do Work Experience at 7 News Sydney last year which was one of the best experiences ive ever had. What contributed to that was the personality everyone there had especially Ian who i spoke to alot, he would ask me everyday for the 5 days i was there to come to his office and have chat like what i did today, what my goals are and alot more.
I have watched him present 7 News Sydney since he began in 2003 and i would have to say he truly one of the most experienced and the best in the industry and it's so sad to see him go - You will truly be missed Ian! Good luck with everything to you and your family!
Good luck... Roscoe!

THANKSGIVING 2009!
Thanksgiving Day Kicks Off With Parades Around the US!
NEW YORK - Giant balloons, floats, marching bands and clowns with confetti brought smiles to thousands of revelers Thursday eager to catch a glimpse of a parade as steeped in Thanksgiving Day tradition as turkey and pumpkin pie.
Thousands lined the streets of Manhattan for the 83rd annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, while crowds gathered nationwide for parades in cities such as Detroit and Philadelphia.
Katie Stam, Miss America 2009, waved to crowds from a Statue of Liberty float she shared with Meb Keflezighi, the first American in 11 years to win the New York City Marathon.
Shailesh Dighe and his family came to the fabled New York City parade to snap pictures of celebrities including rapper Jay Sean and singer-actress Keke Palmer. Despite the crowds, Dighe said the parade is "totally worth it."
"When you watch it on TV, you don't get that feeling," said Dighe, who splits his time between Manhattan and Princeton, N.J.
For the first time, the parade route bypassed Broadway, which cuts a diagonal slice through Manhattan, as it made its way south from the Upper West Side to the finish at Macy's flagship store in Herald Square.
The new route traverses the grid of the city's streets and avenues, includes turns around five corners, and is slightly longer than in previous years.
Johanna Castillo, 38, of Guttenberg, N.J., said the new route seemed to better accommodate the crowds.
"I was very blessed to get here at the time I did and find a spot" a half-hour before parade time, said Castillo, who arrived with her two children.
Elsewhere, thousands gathered in Detroit for the 83rd annual America's Thanksgiving Parade. The country's longest-run Thanksgiving Day parade is being held in Philadelphia for its 90th year.

I know i not a full American but i do have American heritage in me, Thanksgiving kind of captivates me in many ways. When a whole nation stops to say Thanks for everything going in their life is just great, it's amazing to see when so many volunteers go out their to make sure everyone is cared for on this day by taking time of their holiday to prepare a meal for those less fortunate also When families come together to do their prayers and be thankful for what they have and ofcourse the amazing Parades most noticeably the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New York which judging by those pictures looks just Spectacular, i would love to experience watching that parade live one day.
So whatever you have in your life just be thankful because their is always people less fortunate than you.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

OPRAH PULLS THE PLUG ON HER TALK SHOW!
____________________________________________________________________________
IT'S A WRAP: After over 20 years of being the hightest rated talk show - Chat show queen Oprah Winfrey to end iconic talk show!
Talk show giant Oprah Winfrey has announced she will quit her show after its 25th season.
The news, confirmed by Winfrey's production company Harpo, comes as speculation mounts the host will start a new talk show on her new cable network OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network.
Winfrey will concentrate exclusively on her cable channel when the talk show wraps up in 2011.
Harpo said Winfrey will give more details about her decision live on the The Oprah Winfrey Show on Friday.
OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network) is expected to premiere on cable in January 2011, the newspaper said.
Winfrey started her broadcasting career in Nashville, Tennessee, and Baltimore, Maryland, before relocating to Chicago in 1984 to host WLS-TV's morning talk show AM Chicago.
That show was renamed The Oprah Winfrey Show in 1985.
A year later, Winfrey established Harpo and her talk show went into syndication. In 1990, Winfrey opened Harpo Studios in Chicago's West Loop neighbourhood.

HATE THY NEIGHBOUR: THE REAL TRUTH THAT YOU NEVER SEE!
_____________________________________________________________________________
PALESTINE TAKEN OVER: Hundreds and Thousands of Jewish settlers are DESTROYING homes and towns and building there own on Palestinian land and if the Palestinians refuse the settlers will stop at nothing and kill them
_____________________________________________________________________________
(((WATCH))) - 60 Minutes (Australia) report (WATCH THE WHOLE REPORT - IT WILL SHOCK YOU)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPtW3ZYq0Wk
_____________________________________________________________________________
It was near the top of Barack Obama's "to-do" list. On day one in the White House, the first overseas call he made was to the Middle East, trying to get the Arab and Israeli leaders talking again.
Why the rush? Well, hundreds of thousands of Jewish settlers are moving into the West Bank, building new towns on Palestinian land. And if there's ever going to peace in the Middle East, this is one problem that has to be fixed.
THE SETTLERS WILL HAVE TO MOVE OUT!
But try telling them that. They're obstinate and refuse to budge. And, as Liam Bartlett discovered first hand, when they're cornered, they fight back with teargas and guns.

http://sixtyminutes.ninemsn.com.au/blog.aspx?blogentryid=482947&showcomments=true
_____________________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________________
(((MY OPINION)))
When i saw this story it made my blood boil, i was not so surprised though, There are'nt many people in Palestine who live peacefully and when they are, It does'nt take a long time until hundreds and thousands of Jewish Settlers destroy their homes and towns and kill ANYONE who refuses to leave - THIS IS UNJUST!
Why don't we hear more of the Truth of whats really going on in the Middle East - Im sorry if i offend anyone - but the Media is usually biased towards Israel BUT not in this Courages and Brave story by Australian Journalist Liam Barlett even though it shows a slight image of what the truth is atleast it portrays Some of an idea of why PEACE will never come true until these Soulless Bastards stop destroying innocent people's lives and go back to their own lives! It's just so sad why these people can't live in Peace.

___________________________________________________________________________
A six-month-old boy has miraculously survived a train slamming into his pram after it rolled off an Australian railway platform.
The collision happened as a city-bound service pulled up to Ashburton station, in a Melbourne suburb.
CCTV footage shows the boy's mother taking her hands off the three-wheeler pram's handles and failing to notice as it slowly edges towards the tracks.
The mum suddenly spots the baby carrier picking up speed and she rushes with outstretched arms to try to save her young child.
But the pram tips over the edge of the platform and the baby slams onto the tracks head first.
Before the boy can be rescued, the train powers past, horrifying the mother and other waiting passengers.
The footage ends with the frantic mum and a man running up to the driver, who has just stopped the 250-ton vehicle.
The pram tipping over the edge.
Australia's Herald Sun said the train ploughed into the pram at about 35km/h, dragging the child along beneath the front carriage.
But the boy was hauled from the tracks with little more than a bump on his head.
Paramedic Jon Wright said the six-month-old just "needed a feed and a nap".
"Luckily, he was strapped into his pram at the time, which probably saved his life. I think the child's extremely lucky," the paramedic told the paper.
"Fortunately the train was slowing as it pulled into the station."
Rail firm Connex is to investigate how the pram rolled off the platform and the train driver will be offered counselling.

Just Incredible is'nt? The first time you see the footage, it's heart stopping and then fortunetly you know the baby survived with just a bump on her head, you feel so good and happy that nothing major happended to the infant.
The footage was released by police to show parents the danger of what could happen if their not careful on platforms, it has caused abit of controversy of the footage being released though i think it was the right decision as all parents who see this can know how dangerous things can get on the train platforms.

'BLACKFACE' SKIT CAUSES CONTROVERSY AND OUTRAGES AMERICA!
_____________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________
A Skit on a Popular Australian TV Show 'Hey Hey, It's Saturday' has offended Harry Connick Jr., Sparked Debates around the world and slammed as 'Racist'
____________________________________________________________
(((WATCH THE VIDEO)))
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjrfnSshj-4&feature=popular
____________________________________________________________
(((THE MAIN FACTS)))
- The Groups name is the 'Jackson Jive' named similar to the 'Jackson Five'
- Apprantly the intention was not to offend anyone and was meant to be a tribute to Michael Jackson
- The Skit offended US Singer Harry Connick Jr who was a guest on the show
- Harry Connick Jr. has also been critized as a 'Hypocrite' after a video of him on 'MAD TV' years back, showed him with a 'blackface' apprently mocking a preacher
- The Host Daryl Somers Apoligized, and later the Network also apoligized for any offence taken
- The Skit was Slammed as 'Racist' by many people
- It sparked Debate in the US on Blogs, Talk shows, news, radio and online
- Many people around the have world have painted Australia as a 'Racist' and 'Backwards' country
___________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________
(((MY VIEWS)))
Since that skit aired, the Media has gone bonkers, debates from TV to Newspapers, Radio to Online. 'Hey Hey, It's Saturday' is a popular show here which began in 1971 and went 27 years and in 2009 it came back for a 2 episodes 'Reunion Special', The Show was always Hilarious, witty and just plain Fun -
But not this time, The 'Blackface' Skit was neither funny nor witty, It was pethetic and had offended many people which is undertstanable.
But what got me was all the attention and the slamming of our country slammed as 'Racist', I mean why be so extreme, Im not saying Racism is here, i know because i have been a victim to it several times, But this is was a skit passed on by Stupid producers who did'nt know what they were doing in a TV Show, The show does'nt represent the whole Country, Does that mean the whole of Australia is 'Racist', I mean come on....
Did the skit offend you?
Was it Racist?
Acceptable or Unacceptable?
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
HARRY THE HYPOCRITE?
Moments after the 'blackface' skit aired a video was surfaced online showing Harry Connick Jr on MAD TV of his impersonation of a preacher.......
____________________________________________________________
(((WHAT THE VIDEO))) and decide for yourself? A Hyprocrite?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vtOt5mNEZE
____________________________________________________________
What do you think?
Is Harry a Hyprocite?

FRIENDS REUNITED:
_____________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________
After many rumours and speculation, It's finally confirmed, Our 6 favourite Friends are coming back for a Movie version of the hit sitcom!! WOOOO HOOOO!!!
They're back: Friends stars will be reunited after the last episode in 2004
'Friends: The Movie is definitely on. I still keep in touch with a lot of the cast and they say that they are really keen.' says James Michael Tyler who played 'Gunther'
_____________________________________
BREAKING TV NEWS: The cast of Friends are to be reunited once again - for a movie version of the hit TV show, it emerged today.
The six main stars have agreed to move onto the big screen following the success of the Sex And The City film at the box office.
It means Jennifer Aniston, 40, Courteney Cox, 45, Lisa Kudrow, 46, Matt LeBlanc, 42, Matthew Perry, 40, and David Schwimmer, 42, will be back on the same set for the first time since the show ended in 2004.Studio bosses from Warner Bros. are prepared to pay a fortune to the stars, who were being paid six figures an episode by the tenth and final season of Friends, which was one of the highest rated sitcom ever.
They have also drafted in the show's creators David Crane and Marta Kauffman to write and produce the film, due in cinemas in the summer of 2011.
James Michael Tyler, who played Central Perk coffee shop oddball Gunther, confirmed: 'Friends: The Movie is definitely on. I still keep in touch with a lot of the cast and they say that they are really keen.'
A movie source told the News of the World: 'The cast haven't set the world alight since the show finished.
'But this film could relight some of their flagging careers in a big way.
'But everyone knew the story had to be right and well written. Getting the creators on board was a massive step forward for the project.
'The show did lose a lot of its shine in the last few seasons, but with the actors all in the forties it would be a real interest to see how their characters have developed.'
The film comes in the wake of the big screen version of Sex And The City which took an astonishing $408,921,925 at the box office.
But, although the cast have always made no secret about a desire to do a film, some have cast doubts about its viability.
Miss Kudrow has said: 'It would be so fun to be with all those people again.
'But our show was not like Sex and the City - ours was multi-camera, in front of a live audience.
'It's a completely different feel. You'd have to bring the tone down, and I don't know how it would be. I'll just stay open.'
Meanwhile actor Mr Tyler, 47, who is in London for the launch of a Central Perk themed coffee shop in Soho, is keen to reprise his role as Gunther on the big screen.
He said: 'The one thing I can tell you is that I am definitely on board to do the film.
'I really loved my time on the show and I am looking forward to meeting up with the old gang again.
'I just hope we can do justice to the show in a film.'

SO WHAT ARE THEY DOING NOW?
DAVID SCHWIMMER (Ross Geller) has had the biggest critical success with a range of theatrical roles including the play Some Girl(s) in London alongside Catherine Tate. He also directed 2007 British film Run Fatboy Run.
JENNIFER ANISTON (Rachel Green) has had lead roles in commercially successful films such as Bruce Almighty, Along Came Polly and Marley and Me.
COURTENEY COX (Monica Geller) missed out on a role in hit TV series Desperate Housewives and has been relatively obscure ever since. She was in U.S. TV drama Dirt - cancelled after two series. She is now set to act in horror film Scream 4.
LISA KUDROW (Phoebe Buffay) had a hit after the show finished with HBO sitcom The Comeback and is now an executive producer on the US version of Who Do You Think You Are?
MATT LEBLANC (Joey Tribbiani) has barely been seen on screens (big and small) since leaving Friends. He starred in spinoff comedy Joey, but it was cancelled after just two seasons.
MATTHEW PERRY (Chandler Bing) starred in recent TV show Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip, written by the West Wing's Aaron Sorkin. It was cancelled after just a single season. He also played the older Zac Efron in this year's film 17 Again.
HOW BIG IS THIS? IT'S HUGE, I'VE WAITED TO HEAR THIS NEWS SINCE THE END OF FRIENDS IN 2004, IN MY OPINION FRIENDS IS THE GREATEST SHOW EVER MADE AND THERE IS NOTHING LIKE IT! THERE WARE SO MANY RUMOURS BUT I NEVER THOUGHT THEY WOULD BE TRUE, BUT NOW TO KNOW THAT OUR 6 FAVOURITE FRIENDS ARE REUNITING AGAIN IN THE SAME FAMOUS SET, HILARIOUS CHARACTERS, SEEING ALL THAT AGAIN WILL BE AMAZING!! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE IT HAPPEN! IM SO EXCITED! WOOT WOOT!!!
