Sarah Jessica Parker and Victoria Beckham to create fashion line?

If this rumour comes true it could very well be that the Fashion Godds have heard our prayers.

The latest collaboration looks set to come from two of the world’s best dressed women, Sarah Jessica Parker and Victoria Beckham.

It was just three months ago that the rumours started that SJP was planning a return to fashion by creating her own collection – but it’s all been kept quiet until now.

Grazia UK have now reported that the two ladies have joined forces to create a collection.

It’s claimed that the two are in secret talks to create a fashion line aimed at women of all ages.

We can only hope that the rumours come to light and we get to witness a collection from two icons from the industry.

What do you think of this news?

Charlize Theron’s Buzz Cut

Charlize Theron has finally revealed the full effect of her buzz cut after hiding it under hats for weeks.

She’s chopped her lovely blonde locks off for her role in the new Mad Max film in which she will star opposite Tom Hardy (lucky, lucky, woman) and I couldn’t commend her more.

I would never ever shave my head, and I don’t think many other women would either, so it’s super brave of her to do it and, thankfully, she actually suits it.

To be fair, she could have hair like a troll and she would still look good, so it doesn’t really surprise me that she looks good with no hair.

I think it’s safe to say that you shouldn’t try this buzz cut thing if your hair is your best feature, or if you have a pointy head. Not a good look.

Your Sister’s Sister Clips

Emily Blunt may have starred in Five Year Engagement last week but this week she is back with another new movie Your Sister’s Sister.

The movie marks the return of Lynn Shelton to the director’s chair for the first time since Humpday, a movie that did incredibly well at the Sundance Film Festival.

Not only has Shelton directed but she has also penned the screenplay to the comedy/drama.

Blunt leads the cast but Mark Duplass and Rosemarie DeWitt are on there as well in what looks set to be a moving and emotional movie.

Lost in an emotional funk one year after his brother’s death, Jack (Mark Duplass) takes his best friend Iris (Emily Blunt) up on her offer for a reflective week of solitude at her family’s remote island retreat.

Upon arriving at the house, Jack discovers that Iris’ sister Hannah (Rosemarie DeWitt) had the same idea, and the two spend an awkward evening together.

Iris shows up the next morning unannounced, setting in motion an emotionally twisted tale of sisters, brothers, and best friends.

Shelton once again honestly explores the complexities of interpersonal relationships while gently poking fun at her characters’ predicaments.

Your Sister’s Sister is out now.

New Monsters University Images

Now Monsters Inc is by far my favourite Pixar movie so you can imagine my delight when it was revealed that there was, eventually, going to be a sequel.

Yes Monsters University will be hitting the big screen next year as Sulley and Mike Wazowski are back.

This is a prequel to the first film rather than a sequel and sees the buddies at school together.

Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn’t always the case.

From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn’t stand each other. ‘Monsters University’ unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.

We have already had the first teaser trailer for the movie and now we have some pics for you to enjoy.

Monsters University is released next summer

Frankenweenie: New Trailer

We are not going to be treated to one Tim Burton movie in 2012 but two as Frankenweenie come hot on the heels of Dark Shadows.

Yes Burton has returned to stop motion animation for his latest project – which will also be in black and white 3D.

And we have the new trailer for you to take a look at:

Frankenweenie is a heartwarming tale about a boy and his dog. After unexpectedly losing his beloved dog Sparky, young Victor harnesses the power of science to bring his best friend back to life – with just a few minor adjustments.

He tries to hide his home-sewn creation, but when Sparky gets out, Victor’s fellow students, teachers and the entire town all learn that getting a new ‘leash on life’ can be monstrous.

Frankenweenie is set to hit the big screen October 17th.

Keith Lemon: The Film Trailer

Keith Lemon is set to make his big screen feature film debut later this summer with Keith Lemon: The Film.

The likes of Verne Troyer, Kelly Brook and David Hasselhoff are joining him on the cast list and we have the new trailer for the movie for you to take a look at:

Keith Lemon The Film is a comedy about Keith following his dreams of becoming a successful entrepreneur, just like his hero Richard Branson.

He comes to London from Leeds, becomes an overnight billionaire then an over day failure before finding the road to redemption.

Keith Lemon: The Film is in cinemas 24th August

Computer Hacker To Spend 5 Years In Jail

Christopher Chaney, the man who hacked and leaked naked pictures of Scarlett Johansson and other celebrities will apparently spend five years in jail for his crimes.

What a load of tripe. Yes, he should pay stupidly high fines (which he will be in addition to his jail time) but jail? You have to be kidding me.

People who commit death by dangerous driving get less than five years, so why should some guy who leaked naked celeb photos get more?

I’m not saying what he did was justifiable, it’s not at all and like I said, he should be punished. But if a celebrity is stupid enough to take naked pictures of themselves and leave them lying around their emails in this day and age, then what were they expecting really?

Yes, he’s being made an example of, but if he’s going to get a five year sentence then the law needs to be seriously revised.

Dying Your Dogs

Okay, so Emma Watson stepped out with her dog supporting bright pink fur yesterday and now Aubrey O’Day has been allowed to take her pooches (also dyed ridiculous colours) onto a flight with her for emotional support.

Is the world going mad? No, most probably just Aubrey O’Day, but it’s still stupid for people to dye their dogs. If they were meant to be pink or purple or any other horrific colour then they would have been born that way, but they weren’t so don’t do it.

A dog isn’t supposed to match your nail colour, or handbag. It’s a pet, not a fashion accessory. And yes, I know I sound like my Nan, but if that’s the only way to remain sane in all this doggy dying chaos then I’m okay with it.

You have to feel sorry for the dogs as well. There they are, walking down the street then they bump into one of their doggy friends and they are ridiculed for their colourful coat, poor things.

As for Aubrey O’Day, she apparently had to have a doctor’s note claiming she was mentally ill for the dogs to be able to travel with her. I’ll let you draw your own conclusions from that.

Hackney Weekend 2012

Unfortunately, I didn’t get to go but I’ve watched along over the weekend and WOW. Personal favourite had to be Jay-Z, and when he brought out Kanye, it was just fantastic. It’s really true, he doesn’t need anything but himself to make it an electrifying show.

Other favourites were Florence, Nicki Minaj and Ed Sheeran but I especially liked Tinie Tempah, he’s been away for a while but he was brill, really got the crowd going and I couldn’t help bouncing around my kitchen to it.

There was big talk around Rihanna’s performance and as usual, she came out partially dressed and then let a member of the audience play around with her bra, but despite this I actually enjoyed her show. She isn’t the best singer, in my opinion, but her songs are catchy and she does work the stage incredibly.

I love Lana Del Rey, she dresses beautifully and I wish to God I had her hair. I loved her album, it was on repeat in my car for weeks and weeks, but when she sings live, I can’t help but cringe a little. Her set at Hackney was no different, and it completely pains me! Sometimes she had it so right, but when it’s wrong, it’s very wrong.

I don’t think they’ll top it next year, it was a great weekend and had arguably THE biggest names in music headlining, doesn’t stop me yearning for the next one to come round quick!

Agyness Deyn and Giovanni Ribisi, Married? What?

Possibly the oddest couple, I’d have never put them together and said ‘Yes, they shall be man and wife’, but let’s slow it down, since when were they even dating? The two quietly married in LA over the weekend but no one even knew they were dating, let alone getting hitched. Apparently the two had been dating ‘a while’ and Giovanni’s publicist released the news of their marriage today. Despite being the oddest news I’ve heard in a while, I wish them the best of luck and I actually really want this marriage to be long lasting!
