Jay releases one album every year, promoting on two shores three places flying here and there, he also films commercials, very busy, then has he got time to write a book? Before the two books that involved his pictures "Iron Box Of An Island", "One2Free Story Book", he didn't write a single word, but they sold well because of his image.<br />
<br />
This time Jay wants to release his own book, but there's no way for him to write it personally, the publishers Vincent Fang have asked him to carry a recording pen, he himself can record down his own thoughts, then the publishing staff will type it out and give it to Director Chou to do the final checking, at least this way the contents of the story are what he wants.<br />
<br />
In order to rise to the procession of being a author, recently Jay has often been urged to hand in his work, Jay can't help but smile grimly: "In the past it is me pressing Vincent Fang, now I have finally tasted the taste of being pressed, the pressure is very big!"<br />
<br />
Till now, Director Chou has only completed 1/3 progress, Vincent Fang smiled saying: "In the past it is Jay who presses me for work, could never have thought there is a time when I press him." Jay then said: "The days of being pressed for work really isn't for the living."<br />
<br />
In the past the musical collaboration, it has always been Jay composing the tune first, then Vincent writes the lyrics according to the melody, "Like this Jay's space for writing songs is very big, he can use a vigorous unconstrained style, but for me it's a bit more mind racking so usually it's him pressing my lyrics, the degree of how late I hand in my work will make Jay can't help but shout at me: Vincent, by the time you are finished writing the lyrics, I would already have finished writing the songs for my next album."<br />
<br />
Sometimes Jay will "act like a big star" with Vincent saying: "First buy me fried chicken to eat, if not then I won't have any inspiration!"<br />

<br />
The 'Charmed' actress and her husband David Bugliari welcomed their first child, Milo Thomas Bugliari, into the world in August and she admits he has been such a good baby he has made her look like a super-parent.<br />
<br />
She told Us Weekly magazine: "Everything is going so well. David told me, 'It's like you were dropped off from Planet Mom!' I said, 'No, he's such a great baby, he's just making me look good!' "<br />
<br />
Alyssa also revealed her Hollywood agent husband has taken to fatherhood really well and she feels a rush of love for him every time she sees David and Milo together.<br />
<br />
She added: "There is nothing like seeing the man you love with your child. The other day David was carrying him in a BabyBjorn while making work phone calls! It was so sweet and beautiful."<br />
<br />
The 38-year-old actress recently revealed she and David named the tot after his grandfathers.<br />
<br />
She wrote on her twitter page: "For all of you asking, "Milo" was named after his two Grandfathers, Miller and Thomas. Two very important men in my life.

Alyssa Milano is in love; she has been for some time. But the object of her affection isn't the subject of tabloid gossip or an actor; in fact, it isn't even a guy. It's a game, a game of nine innings that uses a ball made of leather and cork. A game called baseball.<a name='more'></a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><i>Now in Safe at Home</i>, Alyssa Milano, the mind behind the bestselling sports-clothing line Touch, tells the story about her lifelong obsession with baseball, revealing what the game has meant to her and why everyone should take a chance on nine innings. Like it does for so many of us, Alyssa's baseball story begins with a father. A native Brooklynite who scorned the Dodgers for abandoning the city he loved, her father was reunited with the team when he and his young daughter moved out west for a fledging TV show called <i>Who's the Boss</i>. It was then that Alyssa learned one of the fundamental truths of the game: No matter where you are, no matter how old you are, baseball connects you to your past.<br />
As it turned out, the Dodgers were just the beginning. More than simply a book about the Dodgers, <i>Safe at Home</i> offers a view from the bleachers unlike any other, as Alyssa gives a fan's perspective on the heart-ache, headache, and joy that make every baseball season worth following. From arguing about the importance of baseball history to appreciating the quiet months of the off-season to criticizing Major League Baseball's response to the steroid scandal, Alyssa intertwines her thoughts about the game with stories from her life, bringing an intelligent, wry, and entertaining female voice to the world of baseball writing.<br />
Throughout all the shifts in Alyssa's life—the madness of growing up a child star, having to navigate life's most awkward phases in front of the cameras—baseball has been her one constant, a distraction that was always welcome. Whether you're already a fan or you need some convincing,<i>Safe at Home</i> makes a compelling case for why baseball is and always will be America's game. The end result is a unique and unexpected book that is equal parts memoir, manifesto, and love letter to our national pastime.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452250547872670745.post-28313771534633193452011-09-27T23:20:00.000-07:002011-09-27T23:42:08.239-07:00Nicholas Sparks on failing to finish a novel.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSGoiT261t8QZWkjbcMi9rhY_oM8idEYd5MXhcoKkjzv2yXSjvppQ" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSGoiT261t8QZWkjbcMi9rhY_oM8idEYd5MXhcoKkjzv2yXSjvppQ" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"></span><br />

What would your dying wish be? All their answers were too melodramatic or unbelievable. I still don’t know the ending. It’s a strange thing, because most novels take me five months to write. If I’m four months in and only two thirds of the way through, there’s a problem. The writing becomes more challenging. You begin to dread the process of going to work. The words come very hard, if at all. You work for hours, and you eke out only a few pages. Finally, in the last days, you’re not writing anything at all. You’re sitting at the keyboard for six hours—and nothing! You’re writing, but deleting everything you write.</span></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452250547872670745.post-61166347856162552132011-09-27T01:50:00.000-07:002011-10-03T00:07:22.188-07:00Genius of the Cinema<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.charliechaplin.com/images/product/logo/0000/0006/medium_livre_jeffrey_vance_version_english.jpg?1281541537" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://www.charliechaplin.com/images/product/logo/0000/0006/medium_livre_jeffrey_vance_version_english.jpg?1281541537" /></a></div><a href="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQgGaMSx6XpqJRsk16wQUx_iZgshti495EpYdvAZSAu7tA97RSc" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQgGaMSx6XpqJRsk16wQUx_iZgshti495EpYdvAZSAu7tA97RSc" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px;"></span><br />

After a childhood in Dickensian London and early work on the stage, it was his move to Hollywood that enabled him to express his rich talent to the maximum, becoming the undisputed master of the burlesque genre in its golden age. His best known feature films, including City Lights (1931), Modern Times (1936) and The Great Dictator (1940), were made in the 1930s and combine comedy with social and political comment. With the advent of sound, Chaplin put away his baggy trousers, walking stick, broken-down shoes and bowler hat and set about developing ambitious dramas. But during the cold war period his free lifestyle and left-wing political affiliations obliged him to leave the USA. While his last European films, Monsieur Verdoux (1947) and Limelight (1952), did not have the same popular success as his earlier work, they remain major masterpieces.</span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><br />
</b></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Allison Pearson's debut novel, <i>I Don't Know How She Does It</i>, is a rare and beautiful hybrid: a devastatingly funny novel that's also a compelling fictional world. You want to climb inside this book and inhabit it. However, you might find it pretty messy once you're in there. Narrator Kate Reddy is the manager of a hedge fund and mother of two small children.</span></div><a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div></div><div>The book opens with an emblematic scene as Kate "distresses" a store-bought mince pie to make it appear homemade. Her days are measured in increments of minutes and even seconds; her fund stays organized but her house and family are falling apart. The book is a pearly string of great lines. Here's Kate on lack of sleep: "They're right to call it a broken night.... You crawl back to bed and you lie there trying to do the jigsaw of sleep with half the pieces missing." On baby boys: "A mother of a one-year-old son is a movie star in a world without critics." On subtle office dynamics:<br />
<blockquote>The women in the offices of EMF [Kate's firm] don't tend to display pictures of their kids. The higher they go up the ladder, the fewer the photographs. If a man has pictures of kids on his desk, it enhances his humanity; if a woman has them it decreases hers. Why? Because he's not supposed to be home with the children; she is.</blockquote>There's inherent drama here: Kate is wildly appealing, and we want things to work out for her. In the end, the book isn't a just collection of clever lines on the theme of working motherhood; it's a real, rich novel about a character we come to cherish. <i>--Claire Dederer</i> <em>--This text refers to the <a class="product" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0375414053/sr=1-1/qid=1317021631/ref=dp_proddesc_1?ie=UTF8&n=283155&qid=1317021631&sr=1-1" style="color: #003399; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Hardcover</a> edition.</em></div></div></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452250547872670745.post-19250107176182151502011-09-24T20:52:00.000-07:002011-09-24T21:05:00.033-07:00'Priceless' Nicole Richie's 30th birthday<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTwl-udE97kztuvPlFzr1FHGi5tqbdMh9I5jcwF0U1bBK-jZYbRyg" /></div><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Meet Charlotte Williams… Rich, gorgeous, blonde and a talented singer, she has everything going for her. Spoiled and indulged, her life has always revolved around fashion, gossip, partying and men. When Charlotte’s father – her only family since her mother’s tragic death years ago – is arrested on fraud charges, her glittering world shatters around her. Alone and penniless, she must make her own way for the very first time. Harassed by paparazzi and the outraged victims of her father’s crimes, Charlotte flees to New Orleans to escape the scandal. But what happens when a Park Avenue Princess is forced to fend for herself? How will she adapt to the Big Easy’s bohemian lifestyle? And in the face of anonymous death threats, can she keep herself out of danger? From the stylish avenues of Manhattan and dark clubs of the French Quarter to the bright lights of Los Angeles, Nicole Richie’s scintillating tale shows that the very life you run from is the one that won’t let you hide.</span><br />

Toru, a quiet and preternaturally serious young college student in Tokyo, is devoted to Naoko, a beautiful and introspective young woman, but their mutual passion is marked by the tragic death of their best friend years before.<br />
Toru begins to adapt to campus life and the loneliness and isolation he faces there, but Naoko finds the pressures and responsibilities of life unbearable. As she retreats further into her own world, Toru finds himself reaching out to others and drawn to a fiercely independent and sexually liberated young woman.<br />
A poignant story of one college student's romantic coming-of-age, Norwegian Wood takes us to that distant place of a young man's first, hopeless, and heroic love.<br />

It is awarded annually by the Catalan Government to individuals who have contributed decisively with their work to develop cultural, scientific and human values around the world. Last year, former US President Jimmy Carter received the award. Other winners have been: the leader of Myanmar’s opposition Aung San Suu Kyi, the anthropologist Claude Lévi-Strauss, American writer Harold Bloom, French oceanographer Jacques Yves Cousteau,British philosopher Karl Popper,Indian economist Amartya Sen, former Czech Republic President and writer Václav Havel, or former European Commission President Jacques Delors, among others. Murakami was awarded by the jury because “his work transcends its cultural environment and he has become a reference for the literary world”. The author of ‘Norwegian Wood’,‘Kafka on the Shore’ and ‘After Dark’ has an individual universe, which switches between dreams and reality. According to the prize’s jury, “he has built a literary bridge between East and West”. The Premi Internacional Catalunya includes a prize of 80,000 euros and a sculpture from Catalan artist Antoni Tàpies.</span></div><a name='more'></a><span style="font-family: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold', sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span><br />

He became popular with ‘Norwegian Wood’ (translated into several languages such as Catalan and Spanish as ‘Tokyo Blues’), in 1987. He was born in Kyoto in 1949 and studied Literature at university. Early in his career, he combined his own work with translations, as well as with one of his passions, jazz music. He even managed a jazz club in Kyoto for some time. Music is in fact very present in his books, as it is reflected by the titles of some of them: ‘Norwegian Wood’ from The Beatles; ‘Dance Dance Dance’ from The Dells and ‘South of the Border, West of the Sun’ from a Nat King Cole song. His work has been labelled by some critics, especially in Japan, as “pop literature”. He combines real life with a dream universe, in a very personal style, where humour, nostalgia and music have an important role. Murakami has lived in the United States, where he was a lecturer at Princeton University. He has translated Raymond Carver, John Irving and F. Scott Fitzgerald, among other authors. His most recent successes have been: ‘Sputnik Sweetheart’, ‘The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle’, ‘Kafka on the Shore’, ‘After Dark’, and ‘1Q84’. Many of his books have been translated into Catalan, as well many other languages.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.5pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span style="font-family: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold', sans-serif;">Murakami hopes the award will give strength to Japan during these difficult times</span><span style="font-family: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold', sans-serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.5pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span style="font-family: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold', sans-serif;">The writer sent an email yesterday to the Catalan Government thanking them for the award. He said that he believes that the prize “may act as a special way of supporting” the Japanese people, affected by last week’s devastating earthquake, tsunami and the subsequent nuclear accident. Murakami said he is “very honoured” to be awarded with the ‘Premi Internacional Catalunya’ but that he is very sorry that he "cannot feel completely happy with this award because my fellow citizens are going through the most difficult time, suffering the savage earthquake and its effects”. The Spokesperson of the Catalan Government, Francesc Homs, said in a press conference that the decision was taken some days before Japan’s earthquake. This event however makes Murakami’s values “even more valid than ever before”, according to Homs. The President of the Catalan Government, Artur Mas, will present Murakami with the award, which is a sculpture from Antoni Tàpies entitled ‘La clau i la lletra’ (‘The key and the letter’) and comes with a prize of 80,000 euros. The ceremony will take place at the seat of the Government, the Generalitat Palace, on Thursday June 9<sup>th</sup><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>2011.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-line-height-alt: 10.5pt; text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;"><span style="font-family: 'Arial Rounded MT Bold', sans-serif;">Murakami was chosen out of 196 candidates from 56 different countries. The candidatures were presented by 225 institutions from 54 different countries along with the same jury. They were presented in the second half of 2010. From January, the jury examined the different candidatures. After having a short list of finalists, they voted by an absolute majority to give this year’s award to the Japanese author.

</div><div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Promising hockey player and Governor Palin’s almost son-in-law, Levi Johnston was eighteen when Palin became the vice presidential nominee. His unique place as Bristol’s live-in boyfriend provided him a true insider’s view of what was going on behind closed doors. And how Sarah’s public views were often at odds with her home values. It makes it all the more curious that Sarah eventually turned her anger directly on Levi, after losing her ticket to the White House<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">After being bullied, lied about, and outspent in the courts when he attempted to bond with his new son, Tripp, Levi Johnston now is ready to set the record straight.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><br />
</div><div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><span class="apple-converted-space"><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Deer in the Headlights is a poignant, at times very funny, and fascinating tale of a boy thrust into the media spotlight and now figuring out how to be an adult and a dad. Johnston, ever honest, had a unique window into Palintology at a critical time; he sat in the family’s living room and paid attention. Not bitter and never petty, Levi shares his story.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;"><br />

Johnston, twenty-one, has been an outdoorsman since he was big enough to hold a fishing rod and aim a rifle. He has worked as an electrician’s apprentice and roustabout in Port Valdez and on Alaska’s North Slope. After his appearance as an honorary Palin family member at the 2008 Republican National Convention, Johnston modeled forPlaygirl and was profiled in GQ, Vanity Fair, and New York Magazine and a guest on Today, The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell, and Larry King Live. He is the father of a young son, Tripp, and lives in his hometown of Wasilla.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />

I am from the Planet Lorien, three hundred million miles away. I am one of ten Elders who lived on our planet. I am ten thousand years old. Everyone on Lorien was gifted. We are incredibly strong, incredibly fast, and we are born with powers called legacies. Despite our powers, the Elders, responsible for the defense of our planet, failed.</span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-size: 14px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 22px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />

Our entire population was killed, except for nine children and their nine guardians. The Nine fled to earth, where we hoped they would be able to hide and grow, to develop their Legacies and one day avenge the loss of Lorien. Unfortunately, the same race that destroyed Lorien followed them to Earth. They have been hunting the children and have killed three of them. The six that are still alive have started fighting back.

</div><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto;"><i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;"> </i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i style="font-weight: bold;">I Am Number Four</i> was an entertaining bit of young adult sci-fi in theaters last year. It did make money, but it was mostly overlooked even though the book on which the movie was based was a bestseller. The book series continues even if the movie franchise is shelved.</span></div><a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The latest book in the series, <em><strong>The Power of Six</strong></em>, picks up after <em>I Am Number Four</em> with Four and Number Six still on the run. In case you’re unfamiliar with the mythology of the book series it goes like this: a group of powerful alien youths were sent to Earth with protectors to hide until the day comes that they can return home and use their abilities to save their home world that’s currently under attack by another vicious alien race. The children are numbered and the evil aliens can only kill them in numerical order (yes, the reason for this is explained in the books). So, on Earth they are constantly on the run, hiding, trying to survive until the time comes for them to return home and carry out their mission of saving their race.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span id="more-106771"></span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This story deepens the mythology of the aliens and finally offers up more detail on why they’ve come to hide on Earth. Like <em>I Am Number Four</em>, this story is action-packed from beginning to end and it’s a quick fast-paced read. The fast pace may also be part of the problem with the book. Character development is quite inconsistent with some characters getting great development and getting more weight in the story and others getting almost no attention at all. For example, the book is called <em>The Power of Six</em>, but the majority of the book is written from the perspective of Four and Seven.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">That leads also to the awkward writing style of the book. The story is told almost entirely from first person which just feels a little amateurish in execution. There are also other story threads that are introduced and then just left hanging with no more attention or reason for being. Now these could be setups for future books, but again this sort of “look at this potentially cool thing” and then never mentioning it again feels amateurish. These setups should have been made smaller story elements that possibly don’t even seem important in the book but come to mean something in future books.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There are two other negatives to this book. The first one is the extremely predictable and overdone love triangle that forms in the book. This is a young adult book, but that doesn’t mean that there shouldn’t be more complex and unpredictable human emotion and storytelling. The other issue is that one of the elders in the story is named after the author of the book. You’d think he’d have learned not to do this from M. Night Shyamalon’s <em>Lady in the Water</em>. So the author’s name is a pen name supposedly developed to make the books feel as though they are written by the elder. If that were the case, shouldn’t the actual writing and perspective of the book feel as though it were written by him? It just doesn’t feel that way at all when you read the book.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Complaints aside though, the action is exciting and well rendered in the book and the characters that do get developed are interesting and highly entertaining. Literally the power of Si is also quite exciting and opens doors to some intriguing storytelling in future installments of the series. Sam, a smaller character from the first book, becomes important in this sequel, and the answers to his father’s disappearance add an element that connects humans and Lorians.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There is also plenty of great chemistry and character interaction in the book and even a little humor, which is nice in such a dark story. There’s a new story element involving chests that each child has that offers some cool story twists and turns too. We are introduced to Number 7 and Number 9 adding to the excitement and building anticipation for future story arcs.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Without spoiling the story, I have to say that one additional character introduction left this reader riveted. Finally, there’s a gutsy sort of ending to this book that’s either going to infuriate readers or enthrall them. This series offers a nice switch for <em>Harry Potter</em> fans with a cross of both fantasy and science fiction. Sure, it’s not as well written but it’s still one of the stronger series in a sea of <em>Harry Potter</em> wannabe franchises.</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452250547872670745.post-91454183569158012852011-09-18T03:26:00.000-07:002011-09-18T03:27:38.855-07:00Olivia Wilde "Cowboys & Aliens"<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://fragileannie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Olivia-Wilde-aa002.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="565" src="http://fragileannie.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Olivia-Wilde-aa002.jpg" width="339" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;"><a href="http://www.radaronline.com/category/tags/staff" style="color: #ff0066; text-decoration: none;"><b>By Radar Staff</b></a></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Lucida Grande', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<div style="font-size: 12px;">She’s sexy. She’s famous. And she is incredibly witty!<br />
<i><br />
Cowboys & Aliens</i> and <i>The Change-Up</i> star <b>Olivia Wilde</b> is featured on the October 2011cover of <i>Allure Magazine</i>, where she dishes about her painful divorce, the rumors surrounding her love life and how she learned how to just ‘be herself’ in Hollywood.<br />
<br />
</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">“In order to be dating all the people they think I am, I’d need four vaginas!” the actress joked during her extensive interview about the slew of Hollywood hunks she has been linked to since her divorce from film director and Italian prince<b>Tao Ruspoli</b>. “It’s impossible!”</div><div style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">Wilde, who wed at 18, admits that her divorce was “the most difficult thing” she has ever dealt with, and that “she jumped into a stage of adulthood prematurely”.</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">Around the same time, she began her acting career, and explains that she was instructed that “sex sells” and that she needed to trade in her turtlenecks for skimpy tank tops.</div><div style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">“I went through this kind of <i>A Star is Born</i>transformation, where they made my hair very blonde, and I got very skinny, and I was like, ‘And now, I fit the mold!’” she exclaims.</div><div style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">“If I could tell young actresses anything, it would be to just be yourself through and through. I mean, really be hardcore about sticking to your identity, because what makes you unusual is what’s going to assure your success.”</div><div style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">After putting on weight during her divorce, she talks about the public scrutiny that surrounded her new look.</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">“I’m just kind of appalled by that. I’m like, ‘You know what? I am not a melted heap of sadness on the ground, so I think I’m doing pretty good.’”</div><div style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
</div><div style="font-size: 12px;">The October 2011 issue of <i>Allure Magazine</i> will hit newsstands on September 20.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; font-size: 12px; text-align: center;"><a href="http://img2.imagesbn.com/images/118980000/118980466.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://img2.imagesbn.com/images/118980000/118980466.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b>Book Title: The Dawn Of Silvia</b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><br />

Ubiquitous as the face of Calvin Klein, L'Oreal and Reebok, and described as the new Marilyn Monroe by "Vogue" magazine, she's also proved her mettle as a quality thespian, starring in movies as diverse as literary, intelligent Woody Allen features, gung-ho action romps like Michael Bay's "The Island", and of course alternative, hip fare like the film which made her name known the world over, Sofia Coppola's much-lauded "Lost In Translation". Searching for the essence of her luminous star quality, this book takes a critical look at her work, and traces her transformation from talented child actress to Hollywood icon.</span><br />

She also has a three-minute younger twin brother Hunter, who appeared with her in 1996 comedy drama <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Manny & Lo</span></em>.</span></div><a name='more'></a><div class="separator" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">2.</span></strong> She was just <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">nine</span></em> when she made her film debut as Laura Nelson in Rob Reiner's <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">North</span></em>. Scarlett's starred in loads of films since, from <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">The Horse Whisperer</span></em> and <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Lost In Translation</span></em> to<em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Eight Legged Freaks</span></em> and <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Girl with a Pearl Earring</span></em>. She's probably not best known for her part in the Kevin-less sequel <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Home Alone 3</span></em>!</div><br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">3.</span></strong> As well as a hectic movie career, Scarlett has started to spread her wings on the stage. She got her feet wet in off-Broadway play <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Sophistry</span></em> and graduated to Manhattan as Catherine Carbone in Arthur Miller's <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">A View from the Bridge</span></em> in 2009, her turn winning her the 2010 Tony Award for 'Best Performance by a Featured Actress in a Play'. "Being welcomed into this community has been a dream come true for me," she said at the time. "Ever since I was a little girl, I wanted to be on Broadway, and here I am."<br />
<div class="separator" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><br />
</div><strong><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #3b373b; font-family: Arial;"> 4.</span></strong><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #3b373b; font-family: Arial;"> And that's not all! Since we last gave you the 411 on Johansson, she's launched herself into the world of music with the help of some <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">very</span></em> famous friends. Dave Sitek of TV on the Radio produced her 2008 album <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Anywhere I Lay My Head</span></em>. The 11-track album featured ten Tom Waits covers alongside new track 'Song for Jo' and boasted guest vocals from a certain David Bowie.<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">5.</span></strong> The response to the album wasn't too bad, and she followed it with a cover of Jeff Buckley's 'Last Goodbye', a duet album with Pete Yorn called <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Break Up</span></em> and a rendition of Steel Train's 'Bullet'. She recently laid down some sexy vocals on a new version of 'Bonnie & Clyde' featuring Lulu Gainsbourg for a Serge tribute album and another duet with Dean Martin.<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">6.</span></strong> Some people have noticed this week that Scarlett is quite attractive, but they're not the first. In the past, she's been named the 'Sexiest Woman Alive' by <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Esquire</span></em>, the 'Sexiest Celebrity of the Year' by <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Playboy</span></em> and the 'Babe of the Year' by <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">GQ</span></em>. Some people take their adoration of Scarlett a little too far, perhaps, with one eBayer bidding a whopping $5,300 for a tissue the star had used to blow her nose. Ew!<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">7.</span></strong> Her most prestigious award came in 2009, when she won a 'Best Boobs in Hollywood' gong! Though her expertise on all-things breast-related may have been called into question by herbefuddlement over men's nipples. "What is the function of the male nipple?" she wondered. "Maybe we all start as androgynous creatures and then they become men?" [We think she's actually right on that one].</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #3b373b; font-family: Arial;">8.</span></strong><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; color: #3b373b; font-family: Arial;"> We don't know when <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">those</span></em> pics were taken or for whom they were intended, but one potential past recipient may have been her ex-husband, the Stradivarius actor that is Ryan Reynolds. The pair started dating in 2007 and got engaged in a small ceremony in Tofino, British Columbia in 2008. They split in 2010 and their divorced was finalised in July this year. She's since been linked to hot leading man Sean Penn.<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">9.</span></strong> As well as directors Woody Allen and Sofia Coppola, Scarlett's been a muse for loads of other artists. Artist Francesco Clemente used Johansson as the Queen of Swords in his star-inspired Tarot Card deck last month. Before that, French synthpoppers The Teenagers wrote a song about her called "Starlett Johansson". In June, the <em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Looney Tunes Show</span></em> had a character called 'Starlet Johansson' who bore a startling resemblance to our Scarlett.<br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-family: Arial;">10.</span></strong> Scarlett was also apparently the inspiration for Katy Perry's cynically catchy slice of sexuality-tourism 'I Kissed A Girl'. Her apparent response? "That's flattering, but my lips are kind of taken."</span><br />

What’s it all about and how will it stack up to </span><span style="color: black;">other NBC</span><span style="color: black;"> shows? Read on for all the details!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><span id="more-148535"><span style="color: black;"></span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">Ellen DeGeneres has been one busy lady since we last heard from her on American Idol, where she took a short stint on the judging panel. Apparently, Ellen will be producing a new comedy for NBC, and it will be starring her own wife, Portia de Rossi. The sitcom, is said to be about sisters with a contentious relationship, and Portia de Rossi will be playing one of the sisters. Ellen DeGeneres will not be playing the other sister, but rather producing the series.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">According to Deadline.com, there was a bidding war for the new series, but eventually NBC was able to nab it. Portia de Rossi and Ellen DeGeneres will team up with writer Don Todd, the co-creator of “Samantha Who?” Portia de Rossi has previously starred in ABC’s “Better Off Ted,” “Arrested Development,” but her best known role was playing lawyer Nelle Porter on the series “Ally McBeal.”</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="color: black;">Sounds like could make for some fun television, will you be interested in watching this comedy starring Portia de Rossi? We wish Ellen DeGeneres the best of luck with this new series, we can</span>’t wait to see how it turns out for the happy couple!</div><h1 class="parseasinTitle" style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><em>"I didn't decide to become anorexic. It snuck up on me disguised as a healthy diet, a professional attitude. Being as thin as possible was a way to make the job of being an actress easier . . ."</em> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Portia de Rossi weighed only 82 pounds when she collapsed on the set of the Hollywood film in which she was playing her first leading role. This should have been the culmination of all her years of hard work—first as a child model in Australia, then as a cast member of one of the hottest shows on American television. On the outside she was thin and blond, glamorous and successful. On the inside, she was literally dying. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">In this searing, unflinchingly honest book, Portia de Rossi captures the complex emotional truth of what it is like when food, weight, and body image take priority over every other human impulse or action. She recounts the elaborate rituals around eating that came to dominate hours of every day, from keeping her daily calorie intake below 300 to eating precisely measured amounts of food out of specific bowls and only with certain utensils.</span></div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;">Even as she rose to fame as a cast member of the hit television shows Ally McBeal and Arrested Development, Portia alternately starved herself and binged, all the while terrified that the truth of her sexuality would be exposed in the tabloids. She reveals the heartache and fear that accompany a life lived in the closet, a sense of isolation that was only magnified by her unrelenting desire to be ever thinner. With the storytelling skills of a great novelist and the eye for detail of a poet, Portia makes transparent as never before the behaviors and emotions of someone living with an eating disorder.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />

<em><strong>Book Description</strong></em><br />
Love her or hate her, Paris Hilton has made her mark on contemporary culture. She is both an enigma and a contradiction—a successful entrepreneur and a sexy yet vulnerable woman-child who flits from one tumultuous romance to another and searches on reality TV for that perfect BFF. But what is the truth behind the Hollywood veneer?<br />
<br />
Unlike other biographies that range from the exposé to the gushing, <br />
<a name='more'></a><i>Paris Hilton: A Biography</i> is both detailed and objective. It covers Paris's checkered family history, her privileged yet surprisingly unassuming upbringing, and her explosion with sister Nicky as "It Girls" on the international social scene. Readers will learn how her family influenced her, why she made the decision to step into the limelight, and why she continues today, despite her many critics and setbacks. <br />
<br />
Each chapter of the biography provides an in-depth view of a specific aspect of Paris's life: her relationship with men and the media, how she turned herself around emotionally and projected a new image, and what makes her such a smart businesswoman. The book also looks at darker moments, including the sex tape, her jail time, and her publicity faux pas. In the end, readers will understand what makes this complex young woman tick—and have a better sense of what it is like to walk a mile in her Manolo Blahniks.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3452250547872670745.post-83892541183431750162011-09-10T00:05:00.000-07:002011-09-10T23:32:39.103-07:00Chris Evans Actor of Captain America and played the role of "Johnny Storm" in Fantastic Four (2005)<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsnOzsWAXU-PwDfZGg0_DTEtPoTQOA2HAFDFGxBkFrhUnca7ik6mDUvYvkChWchJEe51cmcOxxsjdzG2vkEVr31jwjPLQ14FnD0G1KAEnesb2yzwVK8FsASbfiD9GQ36sR6HZFNPPqs9k/s1600/51PkmJFT13L__AA160_.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><img border="0" height="160px" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsnOzsWAXU-PwDfZGg0_DTEtPoTQOA2HAFDFGxBkFrhUnca7ik6mDUvYvkChWchJEe51cmcOxxsjdzG2vkEVr31jwjPLQ14FnD0G1KAEnesb2yzwVK8FsASbfiD9GQ36sR6HZFNPPqs9k/s320/51PkmJFT13L__AA160_.jpg" width="160px" /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;"></span><br />

<b>Christopher Robert Evans was born on June 13th, 1981 in Sudbury, Massachusetts to a father who works as a dentist and a mother who is a dancer. Chris Evans, as he is known to the showbiz industry also has three other siblings, an older sister named Carly Evans, and two younger siblings, a brother named Scott Evans and a sister named Shana Evans. Chris also comes from an Irish-Italian descent.</b><br />
<a name='more'></a>The strong Catholic believer attended Lincoln-Sudbury Regional High School and it was there that he decided to be a professional actor. After that, Chris decided to tell his parents about it and he ended up interning at a casting office in New York City. While interning, Chris attended acting classes to improve his acting skills. With help from one of the casting agent he had met earlier, he got the opportunity to start auditioning for a couple of roles after he had graduated from high school.<br />
<br />
After auditioning, he finally got a role in the TV series, "Opposite Sex" (2000). But his real taste of fame did not start there. Chris was soon discovered and it was his role as "Jake Wyler" in Not Another Teen Movie (2001) that brought the camera's lens to focus more on him. Not too long later, Chris co-starred together with Scarlett Johansson and Bryan Greenberg in The Perfect Score (2004), a movie which basically tells about how a group of students find a way to get perfect scores for their SAT's. It didn't take too long, either, for Chris to get another movie role in Cellular (2004), co-starring Kim Basinger and William H. Macy, a story about a woman who gets kidnapped but is saved after getting help from a young man who answers a "wrong-number" call.<br />
<br />
The year 2005 was the year for Chris Evans as it was then that he seriously got a shot at stardom. Chris, a remake of the Marvel comic book which tells the life of four superheroes. In that year, itself, Chris was noticed by critics and he even made it into magazine and Internet countdowns, scoring himself a third position of the hot body countdown from Gay.com and #18 on E! Television's 2006 101 Sexiest Celebrity Bodies.<br />
<br />
The year 2007 also proved to be one successful year for Chris as he's got two movies released around the world that same year. The second installment of the Marvel remake, Fantastic Four, came out. Critics say that Chris played his role pretty well and claims that he is improving a lot. The Nanny Diaries (2007) also came out and that movie actually proved to fans worldwide that Chris was a great guy. He's portrayal as "Harvard Hottie" showed fans that he also had a sensitive side to himself.<br />
<br />
The year 2008 sees Chris Evans being part of the movie Street Kings (2008), playing the character "Detective Paul Diskant". Street Kings is a movie about a bunch of cops trying to cover up their wrong doings and audiences got to see a serious side of Chris. In the same year, Chris also worked on releasing the movie, The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond (2008). In the love line, Chris had spent two years with actress Jessica Biel. Both of them started being together from the year 2004-2006. It was the month of June when the duo decided to go separate ways. Chris is said to be a romantic as he once surprised Jessica on one of her birthdays with roses and lighted candles in her room. Even though Chris has been successful most of his life, there were also some downs for him. He auditioned for a role in Elizabethtown (2005) opposite Kirsten Dunst but, unfortunately, he lost the role to Orlando Bloom. Chris Evans is also popularly mistaken for the British DJ, Chris Evans. Chris Evans has definitely been pretty successful in Hollywood, making it bigger than any of your average stars. With a whole lot of movies under his belt, Chris is definitely hoping for an Oscar one day but with or without an Oscar, critics will definitely know what to expect from this talented star.<br />

<b><i><span style="font-size: large;">Book Title:Miles To GO</span></i></b><br />
<br />
<b>Overview:</b><br />
<b><i>“There are multiple sides to all of us.</i></b><i> <b>Who we are and who we might be if we follow our dreams.”</b></i> <br />
<i>-<b>Miley Cyrus</b></i> <br />
<i></i><br />
Three years ago, Miley Cyrus was a virtual unknown. Her life in rural Tennessee was filled with family, friends, school, cheerleading, and the daily tasks of living on a farm. And then came a little show called <i>Hannah Montana</i>. <br />
Almost overnight, Miley would rocket to superstardom, becoming a television and singing phenomenon. Quiet days were replaced with sold-out concerts, television appearances, and magazine shoots. But through it all, Miley has remained close to her family and friends and has stayed connected to the Southern roots that made her so strong. <br />
In <b>Miles to Go, </b>Miley offers an honest, humorous, and often touching story of one girl's coming-of-age—from private moments with her pappy to off-roading with her dad, Billy Ray, to her run-ins with mean girls. Miley talks about suffering through drama and heartbreak and coming out the other end unscathed (relatively). And now for the first time, she will discuss it all—the milestones still left to reach (driver’s license! voting!), dreams to live out (travel to Asia! find true love!), and the lessons to be learned (remembernig to enjoy every moment!). <br />
This is a truly unique look inside the world of one of today’s biggest and brightest stars as she tackles looking back and moving forward.<br />

</div><div class="content">(born Nov. 11, 1974, Los Angeles, Calif., U.S.) American actor and producer, who emerged in the 1990s as one of Hollywood's leading performers, noted for his portrayals of unconventional and complex characters.</div><div class="content">DiCaprio first acted at age five, performing on the children's television show <i>Romper Room</i>, and, as a teenager, he made numerous commercials and educational films. In 1990 he began appearing on a series of television shows, including <i>The New Lassie</i> and <i>Roseanne</i>, and in 1991 he was cast in a recurring role on <i>Growing Pains</i>. That year DiCaprio also made his big-screen debut in <i>Critters 3</i>, a low-budget horror film.</div><br />

<div class="content">DiCaprio's breakthrough came in 1992 when he beat out 400 other hopefuls to act opposite Robert De Niro in <i>This Boy's Life</i> (1993). DiCaprio earned rave reviews, and for his next film, <i>What's Eating Gilbert Grape</i> (1993), he received an Academy Award nomination for best supporting actor for his realistic portrayal of a mentally disabled teenager. Several independent movies followed, including <i>The Basketball Diaries</i> (1995) and <i>Total Eclipse</i> (1995), which focused on poet Arthur Rimbaud's homosexual relationship with Paul Verlaine.</div><div class="content">In the mid-1990s DiCaprio began to attract a wider audience with more mainstream films. He became a teen heartthrob after starring in Baz Luhrmann's screen-adaptation of <i>William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet</i> (1996), a modern retelling of the classic love story. In 1997 DiCaprio was launched into international stardom with the release of James Cameron's epic <i>Titanic</i>. His good looks and poignant portrayal of Jack Dawson, a penniless artist who falls in love with an upper-class passenger (played by Kate Winslet), helped make <i>Titanic</i> the highest-grossing film ever.</div><div class="content">Though flooded with offers to appear in blockbusters and other mainstream fare, DiCaprio instead embraced roles that featured the complex characters that had come to define his career. In 2000 he starred in <i>The Beach</i>, a dark film about a young backpacker's search for paradise. Two years later he appeared in Martin Scorsese's <i>Gangs of New York</i>, a period piece about gangsters in New York City in the mid-1800s. That year he also starred opposite Tom Hanks as the real-life con artist Frank Abagnale, Jr., in Steven Spielberg's <i>Catch Me If You Can</i>. Reteaming with Scorsese, DiCaprio portrayed a young Howard Hughes in <i>The Aviator</i> (2004), for which he received a best actor Academy Award nomination.</div><div class="content" style="text-align: left;">DiCaprio's later works include a third collaboration with Scorsese, <i>The Departed</i> (2006), and <i>Blood Diamond</i> (2006). Both films garnered DiCaprio some of the best reviews of his career, and he earned an Oscar nomination for his portrayal of a diamond smuggler in the latter film. In 2008 he starred as a CIA agent hunting down a terrorist on the run in Ridley Scott's <i>Body of Lies</i>. DiCaprio again paired with Winslet in <i>Revolutionary Road</i> (2008), an adaptation of the novel by Richard Yates that depicts a young couple struggling to reconcile their unconventional aspirations with a stifling existence in 1950s suburbia. For his next film, Scorsese's <i>Shutter Island</i> (2010), DiCaprio portrayed a tormented U.S. marshal sent to a hospital for the criminally insane to investigate the disappearance of an inmate.</div></td></tr>

The stay-at-home mother of three young sons woke up from a dream featuring seemingly real characters that she could not get out of her head.<br />
"Though I had a million things to do, I stayed in bed, thinking about the dream. Unwillingly, I eventually got up and did the immediate necessities, and then put everything that I possibly could on the back burner and sat down at the computer to write—something I hadn't done in so long that I wondered why I was bothering."<br />
Meyer invented the plot during the day through swim lessons and potty training, and wrote it out late at night when the house was quiet. Three months later she finished her first novel, <i>Twilight</i>. With encouragement from her older sister (the only other person who knew she had written a book), Meyer submitted her manuscript to various literary agencies. <i>Twilight</i> was picked out of a slush pile at Writer's House and eventually made its way to the publishing company Little, Brown where everyone fell immediately in love with the gripping, star-crossed lovers.<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<i>Twilight</i> was one of 2005's most talked about novels and within weeks of its release the book debuted at #5 on <i>The New York Times</i> bestseller list. Among its many accolades, <i>Twilight</i> was named an "ALA Top Ten Books for Young Adults," an Amazon.com "Best Book of the Decade...So Far", and a Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year.<br />
The highly-anticipated sequel, <i>New Moon</i>, was released in September 2006, and spent more than 25 weeks at the #1 position on <i>The New York Times</i> bestseller list.<br />
In 2007, <i>Eclipse</i> literally landed around the world and fans made the Twilight Saga a worldwide phenomenon! With midnight parties and vampire-themed proms the enthusiasm for the series continued to grow.<br />
On May 6, 2008, Little, Brown and Company released <i>The Host</i>, Meyer's highly-anticipated novel for adults which debuted at #1 on <i>The New York Times</i> and <i>Wall Street Journal</i> bestseller lists. <i>The Host</i> still remains a staple on the bestseller lists more than a year after its debut.<br />
On August 2, 2008, the final book in the Twilight Saga, <i>Breaking Dawn</i> was released at 12:01 midnight. Stephenie made another appearance on "Good Morning America" and was featured in many national media outlets, including Entertainment Weekly, Newsweek, People Magazine and Variety. Stephenie headlined the Breaking Dawn Concert Series with Justin Furstenfeld (lead singer of Blue October) to celebrate the release in four major markets across the US. <i>Breaking Dawn</i> sold 1.3 million copies in its first 24 hours.<br />
The Twilight movie, directed by Catherine Hardwicke and starring Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart, was released on November 21, 2008. Twilight debuted at #1 at the box office with $70 million, making it the highest grossing opening weekend for a female director.<br />

She has been characterized by critics as a women's fiction author; she contests this label, however, citing her popularity with both male and female fans. Her novels cross many genres, including literary fiction, legal thrillers, psychological portraits, romances, and ghost stories. In reviews, her body of work, themes, and writing style have been compared to authors as diverse as Alice Hoffman, John Grisham, and Daphne du Maurier. As this varied group of comparisons suggests, Picoult creates a new reading experience for her audience with each book.</div><div style="line-height: 1.2em; margin-bottom: 0.7em; margin-left: 0pt; margin-right: 0pt; margin-top: 0.6em;">Jodi Lynn Picoult was born on 19 May 1966 and grew up in Nesconset, Long Island, with her parents, Myron Michel Picoult, a securities analyst on Wall Street, and Jane Ellen Friend Picoult, a nursery-school teacher.

There’s the melody that reminds her of the summer she spent rubbing baby oil on her stomach in pursuit of the perfect tan. A dance beat that makes her think of using a fake ID to slip into a nightclub. A dirge that marked the years she spent trying to get pregnant.<br />
<br />
For better or for worse, music is the language of memory. It is also the language of love.In the aftermath of a series of personal tragedies, Zoe throws herself into her career as a music therapist. When an unexpected friendship slowly blossoms into love, she makes plans for a new life, but to her shock and inevitable rage, some people—even those she loves and trusts most—don’t want that to happen.<br />
<br />
Sing You Home is about identity, love, marriage, and parenthood. It’s about people wanting to do the right thing for the greater good, even as they work to fulfill their own personal desires and dreams. And it’s about what happens when the outside world brutally calls into question the very thing closest to our hearts: family.<br />
