Christina Aguilera Starring in Her First Movie Role

adminray — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 16:53:00 GMT

The Irish/Ecuadorian singer of will be doing nothing other than a movie musical.

We know Christina can definitely sing, she can definitely wear revealing clothing, she can definitely use blonde hair dye, she can definitely be "dirty" … but can she act?

We’ll find out in an upcoming movie, although I can probably already guess the answer. (Talvez...puede ser.)

Christina’s been cast as the lead role in Burlesque, a new movie musical about a small-town girl with a great voice and alot of energy who moves out to the big city of Los Angeles. She then finds love, family and success in a Los Angeles burlesque club.

The head of Screen Gems, the studio producing the film says, “I couldn’t be more excited, as this was a project written with her in mind”.

Someone wrote a film with Christina Aguilera in mind as the lead role?
Who woulda thunk...

This will be worth watching. At least the girl can sing...

adminray — Fri, 08 May 2009 16:03:00 GMT

La Senora Salma Hayeyk told WEB MD, “None of that. No peelings or tanning booths. What you see is what you get. I have been lucky. Maybe when the face starts falling apart, I’ll change my mind, but for now I am fine.”

She says in many cases she thinks that people who get plastic surgery age faster. And she just doesn’t have the time for that. Her statements do make a little sense...perhaps. She says, after a while there won’t be any more skin to tuck with tons of plastic surgery.

Salma shares her thoughts and philosophy on aging with Penelope Cruz. Cruz also says she's not for plastic surgery. So good! Now let's see what these ladies have to say in 15 years...

Jeremiah Tieman of Arizona, has been making mucho moolah from domain names like Jenniferlopez.net and JenniferLopez.org. He was the registrar of these names...but no longer owns them due to court order.

But Mr. Tierman has been ordered to turn them over as he was using the names to forward traffic to other revenue generating sites. Also, Jennifer trademarked her name in 1999 So, J.Lo sued Mr. Jeremiah Tieman for false representation. Now, he has been ordered to turn over the domains back to her.

If this is true, I will eat my pants...(well not really but, dude!) Recently superstar Enrique Iglesias was seen with his on again off again lady Anna Kournikova and these two might be actually going for a luv match. Both of them were in the spot light at the Crandon Park Tennis Center while watching the two tennis champs Serena Williams and her sister Venus play.

Although Serena was winning the match, all the attention was focused onto Iglesias and Kournikova wearing a big diamond ring. They both spent the night together kissing and hugging. Game...set...MATCH. This'll be interesting cause I know people who've seen Iglesias sing live, and he makes no secret of liking all types of ladies at this concert. Kournikova is an understanding woman.

The biggest untruth Longoria says is that Mario is a womanizer and will remain a bachelor for life. Sure, he goes out and dates women...but, in the long run he and Longoria say he would just like to settle down with one woman.
