New movie Anonymous seems to have got hardcore William Shakespeare in a right old state as the movie suggests that perhaps he didn’t pen his work himself.

Roland Emmerich is back as he swaps blockbuster for period drama with Anonymous and he seems to have ruffled a few feathers.

Set in the political snake-pit of Elizabethan England the movie speculates on an issue that has for centuries intrigued academics and brilliant minds such as Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, and Sigmund Freud, namely: who actually created the body of work credited to William Shakespeare?

Experts have debated, books have been written, and scholars have devoted their lives to protecting or debunking theories surrounding the authorship of the most renowned works in English literature.

“Anonymous” poses one possible answer, focusing on a time when scandalous political intrigue, illicit romances in the Royal Court, and the schemes of greedy nobles lusting for the power of the throne were brought to light in the most unlikely of places: the London stage.

Rhys Ifans leads an all star cast that includes Vanessa Redgrave, Joely Richardson, David Thewlis and Xavier Samuel.

In search of a place to restart his life, Greenberg tries to reconnect with old friends including his former band mate Ivan [Rhys Ifans].

But old friends aren’t necessarily still best friends, and Greenberg soon finds himself spending more and more time with his brother’s personal assistant Florence [Greta Gerwig], an aspiring singer and also something of a lost soul.

Despite his best attempts not to be drawn in, Greenberg and Florence manage to forge a connection, and Greenberg realizes he may at last have found a reason to be happy.

Greenberg is released 11th June. Take a look at a couple of clips from the movie:

Madonna

Is it just me or is the fact that Madonna dedicated her hit; Like A Virgin, to the Pope at her concert in Rome a little bit weird? She isn’t exactly the picture of Catholisism so there’s no surprise that the Catholic population is furious at her!

I always thought diva’s were classy, rich ladies, but Amy Winehouse has proven me wrong after she was nearly an hour late on stage at a UK music festival because she refused to get her feet wet. I mean come on Amy, fair enough you might get your feet a bit damp, but I think the state of the restof you should be your primary concern.

Proving that she really is a golddigger, Heather Mills has refused to hand over a multi-million pound charity donation. She promised that the cash she sponged off ex-hasband Paul McCartney would go to charity, but clearly that was a lie, much like most of things that come out of her mouth!

No man ever seems to be good enough for a father’s daughter, so what better way to deal with finding a suitable beau than leetng your father set him a seies of challenges to prove his worth? This is exactly what Rod Stewart has demanded of Rhys Ifans before he gives him the blessing to date daughter Kimberly. I think any guy that is willing to even go out with a girl who’se father wants to ‘test’ him, is worthy of a date!

I wish I could have afforded a £1 million chalet when I was just 18, nevermind now (after I’ve worked my hands to the bone!) But that bloody Emma Watson just prances around on the Harry Potter set waving a wand and get’s her tiny pockets lined with cash! Life really isn’t fair, i just hope she can be sensible with the money! Bitch!

Also, if you’re having trouble finding the perfect partner then try breaking the dating norms and getting out then and hooking a hottie…or just follow me on the quest for the perfect man: the modern way!
