Scarlett Johansson is wearing a nose ring again. I don’t get it myself, but to each their own. I think it detracts from her looks. It doesn’t fit with her image as a glamor girl.

I have a feeling you guys really don’t care, right?

And WHAT is that she’s WEARING??? It’s not her best day. How about some pictures of how you are used to seeing Scarlett …

Scarlett Johansson quote:

Scarlett Johansson was furious when she was told to wear a bra during a bed scene in “The Island,” according to the director of the flick. “Scarlett said, ‘I’m not wearing this bra. I’m going naked,’” Michael Bay told the London Mirror. “And I said, ‘Scarlett, you can’t go naked — this film is PG!’” Johansson explained, “They wanted me to wear a bra when I woke up. Nobody sleeps in bras — except maybe French women.”

Natalie Gulbis is one chick who knows how to market herself. She has her own web page where she sells her own swimsuit calendar. Who needs the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition when you have a swimsuit calendar of Natalie Gulbis? “Nat’s” web site is also where you can read her journal and view her photo journal.

Answers.Com provides some background on Natalie Gulbis.

Natalie Gulbis leapt into the media spotlight in 2005 as one of the most popular woman golfers in the United States. She distinguished herself not with victories but with swimsuit calendars and a TV show on the Golf Channel. In 1997, at age 14, she had become the youngest player to qualify for a Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) event. (That record was later broken by Michelle Wie.) Gulbis played golf in high school (on the boys’ team) and spent one year playing collegiate golf at the University of Arizona before turning pro in 2002. Gulbis proved herself to be a strong golfer, if not a tournament winner — by 2005 she had become the first player in the LPGA to win more than a million dollars without a victory. Long-legged and blonde, Gulbis has been called “the Anna Kournikova of golf,” both for her good looks and for the pressure to match the hype with athletic success.

I think she’s one very smart woman. Apparently she doesn’t have the golfing prowess to be the top woman golfer, and so she has capitalized on her other assets. You go girl!

Hazel, I know you’ve already written about this, but I couldn’t resist putting my two cents worth in.

As you know, according to TMZ, there’s a sex tape of Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo that’s so hot . . . well it not only includes a hot tub make-out session, but a hot tub sex session that supposedly would make Paris’ sex tape look a little tame. The tape was made by some Mexican photographers hiding in bushes, in a tree or somewhere unseen by Lachey and Minnillo. So Nick’s lawyer is threatening lawsuits to anyone who publishes the tape. Check out TMZ to read the whole story.

I remember some of my own outdoor frolics in the not-so-distant past. I think most folks - at one time or another - have enjoyed some intimate moments out in nature. I’m sure glad there were no photographers around for my escapades! That’s the benefit of not being a celebrity, I guess.

For someone with the celebrity of Lachey and Minnillo, I agree with you, Hazel . . . GET A ROOM!

I watched parts of the Concert for Diana that aired earlier today on what would have been Princess Diana’s 46th birthday. The concert also marked the 10 year anniversary of her death on August 31, 1997.

Diana’s two sons, Princes William and Harry organized this tribute to their mother attended by close to 70,000 at London’s new Wembley Stadium. All of the proceeds from the event will go to Princess Diana’s charities as well as favorite charities of Princes William and Harry.

Included in the star studded event were performances by Rod Stewart, Elton John, Tom Jones, Kanye West, Joss Stone, and Princess Diana’s favorite, Duran Duran. Elton John opened and closed the concert. The Princes addressed the audience at both the beginning and the end of the concert.

There were rumors that Kate Middleton would accompany Prince William to the concert, but I didn’t see her in the crowd of friends surrounding them in the concert. Prince Harry’s longtime girlfriend Chelsy Davy was with him.

At the close, there was a brief video tribute to Diana’s life featuring childhood pictures.

As the British might say, it was brilliant.

These pictures are said to have been taken while Michael Jackson was at an orphanage in Japan shopping for a new pet child.

As you can see, Jacko still has his children covering their faces with masks. Pictured in the black mask is Blanket Jackson. Look at his eyes. That is a sad looking child. It’s chilling to try to imagine what their childhoods have been like.

The masks just don’t hide the sadness in both of the children’s eyes.

It’s too bad money can buy children.

It seems like just yesterday the fairy tale began. It started with the most eligible bachelor in the world finding a blushing young bride in Diana Spencer of England. At first she seemed shy as she dodged the relentless onslaught of camera crews that followed her everywhere.

As time went by she became more adept at working the paparazzi. She was beautiful, graceful and charming and the world fell in love with her. What a marvelous queen she would be! Her every move was documented by the cameras. Then she gave birth to her first son, heir to the throne of England. This was the baby that would become a king. The world was fascinated and wanted to see more.

By the time she gave birth to her second son the fairy tale had soured and morphed into a soap opera. Still the world watched with endless fascination and curiosity. The two handsome sons only added to the photo opportunities.

When Diana died in a tunnel in Paris in 1997 the world mourned as though she was our own. In as sense she was. Everyone had participated vicariously in her life. Following her death, her legend only grew. She would be forever young.

Gradually, over the years since her death, her sons have grown up and become men. They are both Second Lieutenants in the British Army. They are both tall, handsome and as charming as their mother. They both seem to know instinctively how to work the paparazzi to their own advantage.

The world’s fascination continues as the heirs to the throne of England come of age. In a way they, along with their mother, Princess Diana, may have saved the monarchy. They certainly have kept the world’s interest.

Prince William celebrated his 25th birthday on Thursday. He is now eligible to receive income from inheritance left him by his mother Princess Diana. He will have access to the interest accrued on the $13 million left him at the time of her death in 1997. The amount is estimated to be approximately $500,000 per year.

The Associated Press reports.

Harry, 22, William’s brother, will gain access to a similar amount when he turns 25. According to Diana’s will, the brothers gain access to the capital sum when they turn 30.

William and Harry are both second lieutenants in the British army, earning salaries of about $44,000 a year. They also receive money for accommodation and other expenses from their father, Prince Charles.

Now that he is 25, William also can marry without the consent of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II _ but no royal nuptials are on the horizon. William and his long-term girlfriend, Kate Middleton, announced in April that they had split.

We like horses, don’t we Adeline! But we don’t get that kind of inheritance. Maybe their lack of privacy and the constant attention they have to endure is the price paid for being born royal.

Now, isn’t this the sweetest thing!!

Keith Urban has been touring the United States flew to Australia to celebrate Nicole Kidman’s 40th birthday Wednesday. She is in Australia filming Baz Luhrmann’s Australia Down Under.

He flew into Sydney and then took a private jet to Bowen to meet Nicole on her movie set.

People

On Wednesday, Kidman’s actual birthday, the couple watched a surprise fireworks display for the birthday girl from a mountaintop lookout in Bowen. They also traveled to nearby Horseshoe Bay, according to another source. Urban, 39, is scheduled to resume his U.S. tour next week.

Also for Kidman’s birthday, director Luhrmann, who directed her in 2001’s Moulin Rouge, put together a bash for his leading lady that included caterers flown in from the States, Australia’s Daily Telegraph reports.

Locally, Bowen Mayor Mike Brunker had his own contribution to make to the festivities, telling the Telegraph, “My wife spent all day baking, now we’re just waiting for Nicole to arrive.”

My husband would have probably sent me a card and called me on my birthday. He’d have probably said he’d love to be with me if only I wasn’t on the other side of the world.

Ain’t love grand!

Rumor has it that Katie Holmes is pregnant again. The British Sun and Daily Mail published photos of Holmes with her stomach poking out a bit.

SFGate.com

Earlier this month, Holmes said she was eager to have a brother or sister for her 14-month-old daughter Suri and her stepchildren Isabella and Connor.

She said, “Yeah, definitely (we want more children). We have so many kids in our house, there’s always this wonderful chatter and the great noise of kids. He’s a great father and so it came as no shock that when we had Suri he was amazing with the baby.”

Well, isn’t that special! I wonder if this means more couch jumping.
