“Harry Potter” actress Emma Watson admits that she doesn’t have a perfect body shape and says that it doesn’t bother her much.

The 22-year-old wanted to have a “straight-up-and-down model look” but was not able to maintain that because of her curves.

“I’ve accepted my body shape more as I’ve got older. I went through a stage of wanting to have that straight-up-and-down model look, but I have curves and hips, and in the end you have to accept yourself as you are,” contactmusic.com quoted Watson as saying.

“My weight has fluctuated between a size 6 and a 10. I keep telling myself that I’m a human being, an imperfect human being who’s not made to look like a doll, and that who I am as a person is more important than whether at that moment I have a nice figure,” she added.

Eva Green, who has been hailed as one of the best Bond girls ever following her role as Vesper Lynd in Casino Royale, has revealed the warnings her mother gave her regarding acting.

The 32-year-old French actress made her controversial screen debut three years before then in The Dreamers in which she spent much of the film naked.

My mother Marlene Jobert was scared for me to become an actress like her. She knew I was too sensitive and fragile, the Sun quoted her as saying.

So I have learned from her how to appear to be tougher than I really am. She said: You want to be an actress? Then act as if you are not scared of anything.

Her advice made me feel alive. I was constantly encouraged to express myself and truly live my life.

After doing three years at a drama school in Paris, I moved to England to do more training and try to perfect my English.

My father, Walter, is Swedish, so I am a real mix of nations. My mother was worried for me taking my first big film, The Dreamers.

MOVIE REVIEW

Cast: Dax Shepard, Kristen Bell, Tom Arnold, Michael Rosenbaum, Bradley Cooper
Direction: David Palmer and Dax Shepard
Genre: Drama
Duration: 1 hour 40 minutes

Story: It’s LA calling… for love birds Annie Bean and Yul Perrkins. In other words, time to hit the road… and run!

Movie Review: They — Annie Bean ( Kristen Bell) and Yul Perrkins ( Dax Shepard) — hit the road to LA to take up a job out there is pretty clear. But why all that run? That’s because their road trip gets really complicated (and pretty funny) when they are chased by a friend from the past, Alex Dmitri ( Bradley Cooper), the ever-swearing Randy Anderson ( Tom Arnold), a jealous ex-boyfriend Gil Rathbinn ( Michael Rosenbaum) and the rest. But why are they chased in the first place?

Yul is a self-proclaimed member of the witness protection programme who is happy to live a life of peace with the woman he loves. But when it’s career calling for Annie one has to move on – something that has Yul all worked up… not so much for the shift, as much for the return-to-his-criminal-past now. But then there are a lot of bad guys who’re waiting to settle scores with him.

Now that’s where all that comedy comes from. Add to that Tom Arnold’s exceptional urge to swear, packaged with his accident-prone-to-the-core way to life. Next it’s the road trip that continue to get crazier, thereby adding some comic relief to the otherwise slow pace of the movie. Don’t go looking for high speed chase and state-of-the-art shoot outs. Just settle for some situational comedy amidst the backdrop of Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Let My Love Open the Door, and you’d say this one is watchable.

The actress will play a Bengali damsel in Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Bullet Raja. She has romanced Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar in Dabangg and Rowdy Rathore. And now, 25-year-old Sonakshi Sinha has been signed opposite Saif Ali Khan, 42, in Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Bullet Raja.

Interestingly, for the film that is based on the UP mafia, the actress who has portrayed the rustic northern belle with elan in her previous ventures will be seen as a Bengali damsel.

“As soon as Saif returned to Mumbai, Tigmanshu had a lengthy meeting with him to discuss the heroine. He was very keen to have Sonakshi on board and was convinced she could pull off the role with ease,” a source said.

Sonakshi, on the other hand is excited about this new project. “She loves Tigmanshu’s films and is looking forward to working with him,” added the source. Apparently, the actress is excited to play a Bengali girl, which would be different from her village belle avatar in Dabangg and ‘ Patna ki phuljhadi’ role in Rowdy Rathore.

Apart from Sonakshi, Jimmy Shergill, who has worked with Tigmanshu in Saheb Biwi Gangster, has also been brought on board.

Sonakshi whose film Son Of Sardar is all set for release this Diwali, has left for Muscat to shoot Milan Luthria’s Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai Part 2 along with Akshay. Bullet Raja, produced by Brandsmith Motion Pictures, will thus go on floors by November this year.

After that she went on revealing her sex secrets and her fetish for cucumber to satiate her carnal desires, which had her ardent followers, whom she calls her ‘lovers’, getting into a frenzy and appreciating each part of her body in graphic details.

But she is also looking forward to make her new DVD available to her fans at the earliest. Her first DVD, released in 2010, was called “BB Love Yourself: Fit and Fabulous You”.

MOVIE REVIEW

Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Bruce Willis,Arnold Schwarzenegger
Direction: Simon West
Genre: Action
Duration: 1 hour 43 minutes

Story: Team Expendables reunite for yet another task. It’s only when things go wrong do they realise life has never really been a cakewalk for them… or for their enemies….
Movie Review: Now what is The Expendables’ craze all about: Is it about Hollywood’s super duper Men of Steel sharing the silver screen with each other? If yes, Expendables 2 surely tops the chart. Just take your pick — Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, Jet Li, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Liam Hemsworth. Or is it about seeing the same Men of Steel doing what they do best – action, action and action? If yes, rest assured, Expendables 2 delivers more dhamaka in comparison to its prequel.

In fact, no sooner does the camera start rolling do you find your heroes running between tanks, explosions,bikes, through jungles…. On the other hand, the very last scene can have any action buff asking for more – Slyvester and Jean-Claude keep their guns aside and choose to fight the fist-and-foot way. And what lies between the beginning and the end? A storyline, a wee bit better than the Expendables, but definitely not cutting edge.

A word about performances. It’s Sylvester Stallone and Jason Sathom who are primarily seen calling the shots …with ease. Up next is the new kid on the block, Liam Hemsworth, who does manage to fit in pretty well with the action heroes of yore. As for Bruce Willis and Arnold, we do get to see a bit more (action fans read: still little) of
them (remember the blink-and-you-will-miss cameo of the two in the earlier part), though you are once again left wondering why they are not a part of all that actionreactio stuff. Lastly, what really disappoints is the is-heeven- there Jet Li and why-is-he-even-there Chuck Norris.

But all set aside, it’s these bunch of cronies, trapped inthe orgy of death and destruction, making up for all that misses… and of course hits. Time to settle down for some vintage bang-bang stuff !

Considering the show opportunities an item song creates for the star performing to it, it’s not surprising that every actress wants at least one such song every year. No wonder then that Neha Dhupia, who does a number of shows annually, is thrilled to finally have her own item number in Tigmanshu Dhulia’s sequel of Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster.

And to ensure that she makes the most of it, the actress has even started preparing for its shoot, scheduled early next month in Jaipur. A fitness enthusiast from the onset, Neha has now become even more particular about what she eats till she finishes

shooting her item number. “She’s working harder to look her sexiest best and is also keenly involved in her outfits and styling for it.

Eva Longoria has revealed that she doesn’t believe in having just one soul mate over a life time but also admitted that not all of them will be “‘necessarily romantic”.

The 37-year-old former ‘Desperate Housewives’ actress, who split from ex-husband Tony Parker in November 2010, doesn’t think a soul mate is limited to just one person and says it doesn’t always have to be romantic.

“I think you have many soul mates over a lifetime. And they’re not all necessarily romantic,” Contactmusic quoted her as saying.”I think that your friends are your soul mates, too, and family members. You can have a lot of special connections with a lot of people,” she added.

Gwyneth Paltrow has revealed that she has no plans to add to her brood.The 39-year-old star – mother to daughter Apple, eight, and Moses, six – juggles parenthood with a busy film and business career.

When asked if she would have more children with husband Chris Martin, she said, “I don’t think so. I would love to, but I sort of feel like I don’t know if I can go back to diapers and things like that. I’m so past that, I think I may have missed the window.

“I think if maybe when Moses was three, I would have done it, or four even, but now he’s six and such a guy, I feel like I’m out of the baby phase,” the Daily Mail quoted her as saying.”If it happens, it happens.’Miss Paltrow and Coldplay frontman Mr Martin divide their time between homes in London, New York and Los Angeles.Miss Paltrow also said that being a parent gave her ‘real happiness’.

“I feel like motherhood has given me all my happiness and a real life: a husband, my children and everything that’s invested in that,” she said.”Every woman is different, but for me that’s where I’ve gotten my real happiness,” she added.

The actress also admitted she doesn’t mind the aging process.
“I like being older. It’s nice to really know yourself and feel relaxed. And I actually think I look better now than I did when I was 24, so I’m very comfortable with myself,” she said.

After Kareena Kapoor who got to work with all three Khans in the last one-and-a-half year or so, now it’s her rival Katrina Kaif’s turn to have the exciting phase in her career. Katrina Kaif is working with all three Khans this year, bringing it in with Salman Khan in Ek Tha Tiger, followed by Yash Raj’s untitled venture with Shah Rukh Khan and Dhoom 3 with Aamir Khan.

And with Ek Tha Tiger storming the box office, Bollywood’s lucky mascot Katrina, whose career has been compared to Hema Malini, has proved lucky yet again as the film goes on to rake unprecedented figures. It may be recalled that at the time of the release of Rajneeti, director Prakash Jha had said, “Katrina has no idea of her popularity. She has a very deep connect with audiences. She has the kind of image that Hema had.”

Says a trade source, “Katrina has been part of some of the huge commercial films, right from Welcome, Singh is King, Race, Rajneeti, Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, and adding to that hit roster now is Ek Tha Tiger that has gone on to garner historic figures. Katrina has always been associated with the right films and is dedicated both in her performances as well as experiencing the film making process, right through the filming to the promotions.”

While the action-entertainer makes for the actress’s 13th hit so far, critics and audiences alike don’t hold back praise for Katrina, who was lauded for her dignified performance and action sequences. Says critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh, “Katrina is not relegated to the backseat. Neither is she arm candy here. She has a meaty part and to her credit, she handles it with aplomb. Also, watch out for her stunts… This is a new Katrina here!”

The actress clarifies that she has not gotten married to her boyfriend Sahil Sangha as yet, contrary to reports.
Actresses’ marriage rumours are not uncommon. After Rani Mukherjee, looks like Dia Mirza is the latest to fall prey to these speculations.

The actress is surprised how it has been falsely reported that she has gotten married to beau Sahil Sangha.

Dia clarified, “I am extremely perturbed to know of some reports that state that I have gotten married. I would like to state clearly that I am not married. When I am married there will be no need for speculation as it is not an aspect of my life that I would feel the need to hide from my fans or from the media.”

The actress has been going strong with Sahil. The couple is likely to get married next year.
