'Harry
Potter' is losing his identity (Go
To Top)
Washington:
Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe fears that the fictional
wizard is taking over his life, because he has started to
believe he actually exists. The 16-year old star, who has
been playing the character since he was 11, loves his Hollywood
status, but admits his alter-ego is beginning to eclipse his
own personality. "I have actually started to talk about Harry
as if he's another person I know, like one of my friends which
is quite worrying," he was quoted by Contactmusic, as saying.
"And people who have known me for five years have started
to call me Harry," he added.
Sexy see-through lingerie 'Bends it for
Beckham' (Go

London:
His inner sole coupled with the perfect body-torque helps
him to "bend-it" on the soccer field, but when it comes to
spicing it up between the sheets, it seems only lacy lingerie
can do the trick for metro sexual idol, David Beckham. The
England soccer captain, who's wife Posh has in the past revealed
that he likes to wear her frilly undergarments, was recently
spotted coming out of a 'Agent Provocateur' store in Manchester
with a bag full of see-through underwear, confirming his preference
for all things frilly for him and his wife. "He was buying
lacy undies and see-through camisoles. They were black and
pink - all very sexy stuff," The Mirror quoted an onlooker,
as saying.
Vinnie
Jones wants to be Bond 'baddie' (Go
To Top)
London:
His first love is obviously football, which gave him his
hard-man image and prompted film director Guy Ritchie to cast
him as the villainous debt-collector Big Chris in Lock, Stock
and Two Smoking Barrels. It also landed him the role of a
superhero called "Juggernaught" in X-Men 3, which he is currently
shooting for in the US, but in his heart of hearts the role
that he really wants to play is that of the Bond "baddie",
and can't just wait to take a swing at the new suave super-spy,
Daniel Craig. "I'm playing Juggernaut at the minute and it's
great fun. "I wasn't really a comic kid but I've got into
my role for X-Men. "You don't have to worry about too much
dialogue as a superhero but it's a nice rest as I've just
done 110 pages on another new film, Johnny Was. "It's good
being a superhero but I'd like to have a go at James Bond.
"I think I'd be a great villain so I'll have to see what I
can do.", The Sun quoted him, as saying. And he claims that
both Craig, who ultimately got the nod for Bond, as well as
Hugh Jackman who was in the running for a while, were clueless
about the way the picture would finally pan out in the run
up to the selection of the new James Bond. "I got talking
to Daniel about two months ago in Los Angeles. "He was a bit
sceptical about the role at the time and didn't really know
what was happening. "Hugh Jackman, who I'm working with on
X-Men, was also in the running but he was undecided about
it. "There's a lot of good movies in the pipeline so I'll
have to see what I do next.", the paper quoted him, as saying.

London:
This one's sure to 'warm' the hearts of passionate couples
in a clinch, as well as the purveyors of doo who predict of
catastrophic consequences mankind will face if the current
pace of global warming is not slowed down, with a lingerie
company 'Triumph' recently unveiling the world's first eco-friendly
heated bra as a part of its winter collection, which is aimed
not only at making women feel sexy, but also help in preventing
global warming in the hope that women will stop using heaters
in favour of the bra. The padded creation which comes with
a pair of matching shorts and a pendant in the shape of a
chilli pepper, contains special eco-firendly gel which can
be heated in a microwave or by using a hot water bottle. And
for now the ensemble, which may be the first step towards
creating eco-friendly clothing, is being created only in white.
The company said that they hoped they hoped this type of eco-
friendly clothing will help to fight global warming and also
provide a little fashion chic in the office. "We hope this
will not only help prevent global warming but also provide
a little fashion chic to the office," the company was quoted
by the BBC as stating in a statement.

horrors (Go

London:
Hollywood legend Marilyn Monroe would often take hour-long
showers to wash away the terrible experience of the casting
couch, when she slept with powerful men in Hollywood in order
to keep her career alive, claims the tragic icon's former
best friend June DiMaggio, in her new book titled "Marilyn,
Joe and Me". The actress' friend says that Marilyn felt that
ahe could not afford a life of her own as these men owned
it. She also says that the actress would turn off her emotions
when she slept with these men to save herself from the horror
of the situation. "When these highly placed, high-priced moguls
owned her body and soul, she couldn't afford a life of her
own. She had to protect herself by virtually turning them
(emotions) off during those times - in order to remove herself
from the horror of the situation. After some of the horrors
of her studio sex she would come over and stay in our shower
for an hour or more. She wanted to wash away the terrible
experience she'd had to endure." Femalefirst quoted DiMaggio
as writing in her book.

Seventy guests, a two-tiered bone-shaped cake with a pink
heart and the Pastor announcing, "We are gathered here today
to celebrate the joining of the paws of Bobbie and Gracie

two pet pooches." Two-year-old Bobby married Gracie, who's
