    Popular celebrity weeklies such as Star Magazine and In Touch Weekly explore and report on the glamorous world of popular entertainers and celebrities. It is difficult not to harbor any envy when glossy magazines and popular television shows provide picturesque layouts of palatial estates, and reports of multi million dollar pays for earning a living at something that many do not consider to be work.

  • An Overview Of Gene Hackman  By : Boris DeVries -
    Gene Hackman is one of those actors who over the years have been in quite a few movies that I didn’t necessarily like. However, he always managed to make them interesting and enjoyable by his performance. He has starred in many movies there are some that you will never forget him for.

  • An Overview Of Tom Hanks  By : Boris DeVries -
    It is hard not to list Tom Hanks as one of your favorite actors no matter who you are. I first saw Tom Hanks in his television show Bosom Buddies in 1980. In 1984 I went to the movies and saw Splash. From then on I have made it my business to see everything he has done because you never know what to expect. He has been cast in roles that seemed like they were written just for him. However, in other roles he plays characters you would never expect him to play. Every time he m...

  • Tyra Tyra Tyra  By : MrGaryLee.com
    So Tyra has been lecturing for the past year or so on her Talk Show about how wrong it is that today’s children are obsessed with looks through fad diets or plastic surgery. She even donned a fat suit and went “undercover” to see how poorly disadvantaged a “fat” person is treated by society. All these shenanigans to point out that big is beautiful and to be happy with who are, not who you aren’t. . blah blah blah.

  • Al Pacino - One Of My Favorites  By : Boris DeVries -
    Born in the South Bronx, on April 25th, 1940, Al Pacino is widely considered to be one of the worlds greatest actors. Though he starred in many of the best films of the 70s, he is probably most remembered for his role in The Godfather.

    Though Pacino starred in so many great movies over the years, it is his role in the Brian DePalma film Scarface that boosted Al into my greatest actors list. I don't think anyone who has ever seen the film will ever forget the shower scene,...
  • Why Is Britney Bald?  By : Gemma Bailey -
    Oh the life of a celebrity, money, fame, fun, popularity…trauma? Is the life of a superstar really all that different to us “normal” folk?

    The truth is probably not, but what happens when anyone becomes successful is that everything within their life is totally amplified. I remember being at a seminar about increasing one’s income where somebody said that generally we think that if we get rich the problems go away. They don’t, the problems are bigger and the person dealing...

    Hollywood stardom and celebrity status is a superficial world almost entirely based on looks and image. As such...
