Amy Winehouse blocks paparazzi...

Image
Amy Winehouse has won a court order banning the paparazzi from pursuing her outside her London home, a source close to the singer's management team said Saturday. The singer sought the order to ban photographers if they follow her or approach her within 100 meters (yards) of her home, according to the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not directly involved in the case. Winehouse posted the anti-harrassment injunction outside her home.

Denis Leary sign for latest ad for hulu.

Ever since Hulu's incredibly funny first advertisement starring Alec Baldwin (it premiered during the Super Bowl back in early February), I've been salivating for more. If you pay any attention to what Baldwin says during the ad, apparently salivating is all I know how to do know since my brain is mush. It's true though - my brain is mush. I've blown through the entire first season of Friday Night Lights in about two and half days thanks to Hulu. Anyway, after the Baldwin ad, Hulu followed up with a mediocre second try featuring Eliza Dushku rallying for Dollhouse more than Hulu. The third attempt with Seth MacFarlane trumped them all though as he went through his entire catalogue of Family Guy voices to pitch the online video service. To kick off May, Hulu just released the fourth ad in the campaign and Rescue Me fans are gonna be happy with this one. It features Denis Leary talking faster than he did on his No Cure for Cancer album, so try and keep up with him.

"It's interesting," she smiles, when we meet very briefly in London as she promotes her new film Cheri. "It's not dull. They've all had this incredible youthful energy. It sort of infuses you, and it's very contagious. I've also been lucky in that they've always been really great guys." The latest "great guy" is Rupert Friend, current squeeze of Keira Knightley , who plays her love interest in Cheri, a tale about a retired courtesan who embarks on an affair with a man half her age. The film is based on the famous book by French author Collette, and reunites Pfeiffer with her Dangerous Liaisons director Stephen Frears. It's the latest film in Pfeiffer's Hollywood comeback, after she took a few years out to spend time with her family. Since she came back, she has already appeared in Hairspray and Stardust. "I think that what happened was I was missing work," she explains about her decision to return to the

A way to success " Wolverine claws"

Image
Hugh Jackman's latest outing as clawed mutant Wolverine has earned $35m (£23.4m) on its first day of release in the US, according to figures. The summer blockbuster X-Men Origins: Wolverine has outperformed two of the previous movies about the superheroes. The final chapter of that trilogy, X-Men: The Last Stand, is still the most successful, with $45.1m (£30.2m) on opening day in 2006. Wolverine was leaked onto the internet more than a month before its release. It was downloaded more than 100,000 times in the 24 hours after it was leaked on to several websites. Wolverine was released in the UK on 29 April. Reviews of the film, which focus on the back story of Jackman's tortured mutant, have been mixed.

Kelis Rogers filed for divorce.

The daughter of a black minister, Kelis Rogers (pronounced kuh-LEASE) was raised primarily by her Puerto Rican-Chinese mom and sang in the Girl's Choir of Harlem as a kid. She left home at the age of 16, and eventually made a name for herself on the hip hop scene singing alongside Ol' Dirty Bastard on "Got Your Money" in 1999. A few months later, she released her solo debut, Kaleidoscope , which featured the single "Caught Out There" with its repetitive refrain, "I hate you so much right now!" But it was her ongoing collaboration with The Neptunes and her 2003 album Tasty that earned Kelis the most attention—the album's hit single was "Milkshake," with its techno beat and accompanying bizarre, diner-themed video. After touring with everyone from Britney Spears to Moby , Kelis released her third album, Kelis Was Here , in 2006. She was joined by her husband Nas on the record's kinky ditty "Blindfold Me."
