News Bites: Kate Beckinsale Wants To Be Jackie Onassis

January 2nd, 2009 // 5 Comments

-She also wants to wear a pair of dark sunglasses. Remember that song? Does anyone else feel the homage thing has been taken a little too far, and we need to move a little more forward in our art direction for photoshoots thinking? Or have all the themes and ideas been used? They have, haven’t they? *sigh* The gorgeous Kate Beckinsale’s doin’ the pillbox hat/climb down the back of the convertible in Dealey Plaza thing in the new issue of Capitol Files magazine (oh, is that the point?). Apparently, Beckinsale’s a US citizen now since marrying director Len Wiseman because she had something to say about the president and being able to vote. “I don’t care whether [Barack Obama] has a cigarette or not. I think it’s just so fantastic we have a president who can finally read. I never planned on living in America [but] if I find myself still here
in 10 or 15 years, it would be silly not to be able to vote.”

-Aaron Spelling favorite Heather Locklear has copped to a misdemeanor reckless driving charge, but managed to avoid being prosecuted for a DUI. Yay! We like Heather. She makes television better. Heather got three years probation, has to fork over a $700 fine, and has to attend a 12-hour drug education course. Drop the dolls before you drive, Locklear.

-Hot dad Hugh Jackman will NOT be in Steven Soderbergh’s high-ass sounding 3D musical about the life of Cleopatra called Cleo. Why? Because it sounds like a homosexual on psychotropics came up with that idea and that never works. Actually, the band Guided By Voices wrote it, and people like them so maybe it will work? I don’t know. Jackman actually cited scheduling conflicts as opposed to “nah, dude, that sounds really effed up-sounding and people already think I’m a mary.”

    Just a technical thing but you don’t become an American by marrying one. You just get fast-tracked if you decide to apply for citizenship, because you are married to one.

    Just a note to ensure you correct the layout “error,” appearing on page 112 of this issue, in subsequent issues. Writing orientation in this country is left-to-right and bottom-to-top, thus, the words American …” in the advertisement should have been flipped; “American” should have been printed with the “A” at the bottom and the “n” at the top, and the second word similarly printed.
    A small point, I admit, but one that should be consistently followed in American written work , although I will be the first to say that all too many publications (and office communications, flip charts, graph labeling, maps, etc.) follow this design rule.
