| Brittany Murphy's Husband Claims Being Victimized by Press |
[28 Dec 2009|01:23am] |
Brittany Murphy's husband Simon Monjack has accused the media of publishing unfair stories about him following his wife's tragic death - insisting the press is targeting him because he is not an attractive Hollywood star. Murphy passed away earlier this month, December 2009 after suffering a cardiac arrest at her Hollywood Hills home in Los Angeles.
Monjack is adamant many of the reports that have surfaced after Murphy's death have been unfairly negative, with some publications detailing his past financial problems and calling him a "conman." And the British screenwriter is convinced he is being victimized by the press because he doesn't compare to his wife's ex-boyfriend, actor Ashton Kutcher.
He tells Britain's Daily Mail newspaper, "I know I have been called a conman. I am not perfect. I never said I was. But there has been so much rubbish written about me and Brittany. Most of what you read is made up. My problem is that I do not look like Ashton Kutcher... Nor do they like the fact that she married someone who was not famous. (In Hollywood), stars like stars to marry other stars."
And Monjack has slammed reports which suggested his late wife was taking a dangerous cocktail of prescription drugs before her death, insisting most of the pill bottles which officials found in their home were old.
He adds, "I know what the inference is by all those pills. That she was some kind of addict, but addicts hide away their pills. They do not leave them on the nightstand like Brittany. Some of them were old and date back to when Brittany had some ailment or other. You know how people accumulate things and never throw them away."

Bolton planning stunning transfer swoop for Real Madrid star
Bolton boss Gary Megson is making a sensational bid to sign Real Madrid legend Guti on loan for the rest of the season.
Megson is trying to persuade the Spanish giants to let their long-serving midfielder leave - and talk the 33-year-old into following in the footsteps of Ivan Campo and Fernando Hierro.
Guti is out of favour at the Bernabeu since a row with coach Manuel Pellegrini three months ago. He was suspended and told he could find a new club.
The veteran star, who has only played for Real in his illustrious career, could now be tempted away - and will be offered the chance of Premier League football at the Reebok.
Megson thinks the ambitious move is worth a try and the club's money men are backing him. Guti would cost around £2million in wages for half-a-season, but it could be good value.
Bolton made a habit of landing ageing superstars a few years ago, but Megson has been happier to use the more tried and trusted players in the market - until hearing that Guti could go.
It would be a massive coup for Bolton to bring off the deal, bringing some glamour to their survival struggle and makiing up for the loss of Sean Davis.
Megson admits that the injury to Davis has hit his plans for the campaign and that his priority is to replace that creation in a hard-working side.
Guti will be invited for talks and a look round the club's highly-rated facilities. He will also be given a strong recommendation about the club and the area by Campo and Hierro.
Bolton hope to pull off the deal quickly to get Guti on board and playing after his own stop-start season and they will be attempting to get him in at the beginning of the month rather than at the end.

| John Waters' Top Ten Films of 2009 |
[28 Dec 2009|12:24am] |
1 Import Export (Ulrich Seidl) The most sorrowful movie of the year is also the best. The miserable lives of Ukrainian immigrants in Vienna make this agonizing but brilliantly directed opus the cinematic equivalent of slitting your wrists. A new genre? Depression porn? Hey, I got off.
2 Antichrist (Lars von Trier) If Ingmar Bergman had committed suicide, gone to hell, and come back to earth to direct an exploitation/art film for drive-ins, this is the movie he would have made
3 In the Loop (Armando Iannucci) A smart, mean, foulmouthed British satire about the struggle for global power that asks the all-important question: How do you debate the invasion of Iraq if your gums start to bleed in the middle of your presentation?
4 World’s Greatest Dad (Bobcat Goldthwait) Why, oh why, wasn’t this blackest of comedies a hit? Appallingly rude, decidedly family unfriendly, this autoerotic-suicide tale of a hateful son and his clueless father left the viewer gasping in surprise.
5 Brüno (Larry Charles) Don’t listen to the critics—it’s better than Borat. Imagine a hetero teen couple in a mall on a first date somewhere in Middle America watching Sacha Baron Cohen pantomime every known gay male sex act, ending in a joyous “facial.” Sometimes audiences get what they deserve.
6 Lorna’s Silence (Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne) How do these great art films get financed? European socialism, that’s how, and I’m glad the taxpayers abroad put up the dough for this Tracking Shots“R”Us masterpiece. Only the Dardenne brothers could get away with not showing the dramatic action that climaxes the whole movie. Just think if they had to test-screen this film in America!
7 Broken Embraces (Pedro Almodóvar) There was some grumbling from Cannes that this wasn’t one of Pedro’s best, but boy were those rumors wrong. It’s a beaut! A relentlessly intelligent melodrama filled with so many dizzying plot points that you’ll experience vertigo.
8 The Baader Meinhof Complex (Uli Edel) Now here were some kids who knew how to cause trouble! Hmmm...What should we do today? Stop the Olympics or blow up a commercial airplane? These radicals made the Weathermen look like pussies.
9 Whatever Works (Woody Allen) Gerontophilia never seemed so appealing. This time, Woody goes a little gay and lives to tell about it with lovely, comic success. I am so mad I don’t have this director’s career.
10 The Headless Woman (Lucrecia Martel) Bleached hair, hit-and-run accidents, in-laws with hepatitis? Huh? I didn’t get it, but I sure did love it!

| Lindsay planning more charity work; to visit Guatemala next |
[28 Dec 2009|01:28am] |
Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan is planning a trip to Guatemala for charity work after returning from a visit to India, said her mother Dina Lohan.
The actress flew to New Delhi earlier this month to shoot a BBC documentary about child poverty and human trafficking. The charity work “humbled and moved” former wild child Lohan so much that she is now working on taking her philanthropic efforts to Central America, with the help of TV titan Oprah Winfrey, according to WENN.
“Lindsay definitely wants to give more back. We are now planning a trip to help the children of Guatemala, which will be filmed by Oprah’s (TV) network,” said Dina.
