Jen Still Loves Vince

Re Cliniqua…so true read below it seems Oprah is doing a whole show about “all the glamour short movies” so you are right, it won’t look like aniston went on there because she wanted to deny the stories:

NAPLES DAILY NEWS

Her heart broke the day the two finally met.

He was waiting for her at First Watch Restaurant near the Naples beach on Gulfshore Boulevard North. He was tall, 6-foot-2, just like he had said in his letters, and thin.

But his skin was pale, far too pale.

The two had been writing almost daily since she answered his hilarious personal ad in the Naples Daily News that April Fool’s Day in 1993. It took nearly a month before she would agree to meet him.

In those letters, Benjamin Schemmer had never mentioned that the doctors had given him only three months to live.

As soon as they met that day, her thoughts turned dark.

“‘There’s no way I could have a relationship with him,’” Elizabeth Schemmer, remembers thinking that day. “‘He’s too weak, too frail. There is something wrong.’”

Elizabeth wasn’t sure what to do.

What she did was fall so deeply in love with Benjamin that their love would keep him alive for more than a decade.

“He had something to live for,” she said matter-of-factly on Wednesday.

Benjamin, a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and former editor of Armed Forces Journal International, a publication read by senior military officers and policy-makers, died in 2003.

Elizabeth and Benjamin’s story of love and triumph is so compelling that when Elizabeth told it in a Glamour magazine writing contest in December, the judges chose her entry from among thousands around the nation.

Elizabeth, 54, an administrative assistant, is one of three Glamour readers whose stories are being told in mini-movies called Glamour Reel Moments featuring Hollywood actors and directors. The films premiere in Hollywood on Monday, Oct. 16.

And today, Harpo Productions, maker of “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” is scheduled to be in Naples to film Elizabeth in her surroundings for an upcoming episode. The show will likely air sometime this month, said Michelle McIntyre, a Harpo Productions spokeswoman.

McIntyre would not say where production is taking place today.

“This is a closed set and we don’t confirm any details until after we tape,” she said.

After Harpo shoots in Naples, Elizabeth is expected to be flown to Chicago to be filmed on the set with Oprah.

Glamour will fly her to Los Angeles for the movie premier, where she will get to meet and mingle with the actors and directors of all three mini-movies, including Jennifer Aniston, star of the popular TV sitcom “Friends.”

Aniston directed “Room 10,” a story inspired by Glamour reader Colleen Geldrick.

Schemmer’s mini-movie “Orchids” is co-written and directed by Bryce Dallas Howard, daughter of renowned Hollywood actor and director Ron Howard.

The film is based on the Schemmers’ love story and features actors Katherine Waterston and Alfred Molina.

On Oct. 17, the three mini-movies will begin touring in 10 cities across the nation where the underwriter, Cartier, has boutiques.

The public will be able to see the movies in December when Glamour magazine puts them on the Web site http://glamalert.com/reelmoments/.

The movie “Orchids” is a great love story, said Samantha Rosenthal, director of public relations for Glamour, during a telephone interview from New York.

“It’s soooo good,” she said. “I did very much like the story. It’s a beautiful film.”

The entire “Glamour Reel Moments” project is designed to promote women in film, she said. It is intended to support the telling of real women’s stories and to encourage women who are already in film to get behind the camera, not just in front of it — to try their hand at writing and directing. Glamour teamed with the production company Moxie Pictures on the project. Cartier supported the making of the films to promote its “Love” jewelry collection.

This year’s theme of the film series is “Love in all its forms.”

Elizabeth was low-key about all the acclaim her love story is receiving.

“It’s a story written from the heart,” she said. “It wasn’t even grammatically correct.”

Jennifer is such a bore. I have often wondered why Oprah has never had Angelina Jolie on her show to talk about her charities and humanitarian causes.

Glamour’s Hollywood Side: Films by and About Women

A magazine can’t be just a magazine anymore. Seventeen had a melodramatic reality show on MTV. Maxim attached its name to a line of bedding at Macy’s and a station on Sirius Satellite Radio.

Now, in the name of female empowerment and ambitious brand extension, Glamour is trying to make its mark in the movie business. In October, the magazine will revive its “Reel Moments” series of short films based on true stories from readers, this time with three films directed by Hollywood celebrities like Jennifer Aniston and Bryce Dallas Howard.

The magazine recruited Cartier as the sole sponsor of the new series, a deal that will earn an estimated $1.8 million for Glamour. (Cartier also gets 10 ad pages in the magazine.)

The project makes Glamour the latest magazine to promote itself aggressively beyond its print incarnation. “We have to understand that Glamour is first and foremost a magazine, but we’re also a brand, a brand that competes in a very competitive marketplace,” said Bill Wackermann, the vice president and publisher of Glamour, which is published by Condé Nast. The company is doing “anything we can do that will bring our magazine to life,” he said.

Cartier is also trying to spread its name more widely. Its sponsorship of the project will allow the company to reach a younger and more mainstream reader than members of its core clientele, who are more likely to read magazines like Vogue, W and Vanity Fair.

“We are always looking for new, younger customers who are open to the world, fashion-conscious,” said Olivier Stip, the senior vice president for marketing at Cartier. (The connection is also a boon to Glamour, which is more likely to feature ads for Midol or Neutrogena than a luxury jeweler.)

And the female-friendly films, all based on love themes, may give Glamour an edge in its pursuit of authenticity among its women readers. An advisory board of women in the entertainment industry chose the winning stories from among thousands of entries by Glamour readers, who were asked to submit short essays about moments in their lives that made them “victorious, stronger or wiser.”

•The films are written, directed and acted almost entirely by women, produced by a woman from Moxie Pictures in Los Angeles, and will partially benefit FilmAid International, a nonprofit group that introduces women in underdeveloped countries to film. The magazine has recruited Hollywood actresses to donate their time to the films, including Robin Wright Penn and Jamie-Lynn Sigler.

For Ms. Aniston, who is making her directorial debut, the film was a chance to step behind the camera and participate in a project with more substance than the standard Hollywood romantic comedy.

Her film, “Room 10,” co-directed by Andrea Buchanan, is the tale of a nurse whose personal problems are illuminated when she tends to a dying patient. The reader’s story, Ms. Aniston said, reminded her of a conversation she had with a therapist years earlier.

“She said, ‘It’s about who shows up at the end of your life,’ ” Ms. Aniston recalled in a telephone interview from Los Angeles. “I was just so moved.”

The project also satisfied her urge to correct what she called “a big beef” — the small number of female directors working in Hollywood. “I’m not like a bleeding heart feminist or a bleeding heart anything,” Ms. Aniston said. “But I think I like women. I support women.”

Glamour, for its part, has played up its earnest side lately. In its August issue, alongside articles on eyebrow grooming and affordable metallic shoes, there is an editorial on Hurricane Katrina victims and a feature on gender selection and elective abortion in India. Mariane Pearl, the widow of the murdered journalist Daniel Pearl, was recently recruited to write a monthly column.

All of which has helped the magazine establish credibility in predominantly liberal Hollywood. “It’s rare that magazines have a political leaning, but they are unabashedly pro-choice,” said Carol Leifer, the comedian and former “Seinfeld” writer who directed one of the Glamour films. “I think they have a really good feminist approach to women, which is rare in the world of beauty magazines.”

Glamour’s efforts are paying off: the magazine has a circulation of 2.4 million readers, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulations. Ad pages in Glamour increased 5.1 percent in the first six months of 2006, compared with the same period in 2005.

•The three films are currently in production and will have their premiere in Los Angeles on Oct. 16, followed by a 10-city screening tour. They will also be available on Glamour’s Web site.

And they may have the effect of opening even more doors in Hollywood for women who are already well known. Bryce Dallas Howard, the star of M. Night Shyamalan’s “Lady in the Water” and a daughter of Ron Howard, said she had harbored writing ambitions but only recently summoned the courage to tell her agent.

“I was a secret closet writer who would never show anyone anything that I wrote,” she said. She is the co-writer and director of “Orchids” for Glamour.

Ms. Leifer said she had been trying to land directing jobs for years, but was constantly rejected for her lack of experience. “Almost every piece of feedback was, ‘What has she directed before?’ ” she said.

Francesca Silvestri, the producer at Moxie Pictures, said she hoped the films would change that. “I would love for all the ladies to go on and keep writing and directing,” she said.

BRAD/ANGIE NAMIBIAN DONATION-THE TRUTH -
The 315k donation is being handled/managed by the Michelle McLeon Children’s Trust in Namibia, so Namibians are making the decisions as to the funds distribution. The money was made available by Brad and Angie as they promised.
There was a problem in Namibia with distribution of the funds due to a disagreement between some local groups. Angelina worked with Namibian government officials after they were back in LA until the problems were worked out, and funds were released. NO funds were ever promised to the people who were interviewed. Of course they complained, there is great need in Namibia. BUT THE GROUPS PROMISED THE FUNDS GOT THEM.
Oh, and MAMA PITT cares for Angie as she is the mother of her LA grandchildren. Mama and Papa Pitt have visited Brad and his family a number of times in LA, and travelled all the way to Namibia to see newborn Shiloh. Don’t believe crap printed that Mama Pitt dislikes Angie and only likes JA. She likes them both, but accepts Angie as the love of Brad’s life and the one who has made him a dad.
That might be difficult for some of you to believe but it is totally unrealistic to even think that Mama Pitt does not care for Angie. Mama Pitt loves her son and wants him to be happy as all mothers wish for their children, and he is happy with Angie. She also wants JA to be happy, which is what all JA fans should want for her. Stop wasting you energy on the past-Brad and JA-as they were not happy together. If they had been happy together, they would still be together, that’s just logical, people happy and satisfied stay together no matter what. If VV makes JA happy, then it’s all good.

I thought she would go on Oprah to say that the relationship never happened and she is just as shocked as everyone about it. What a lying female dog!

I DO AGREE THAT SHE HAD IMPLANTS CAUSE I SAW A PIC OF HER AND SHE WAS ALL BONEY AND THEN I SAW ANOTHER ONE AND HER BREAST WHERE BIG SO I BELIVE THAT AND I DONT LIKE HER SHES ACTING LIKE A VICTIM!!!!

Well Jennifer and Oprah both are very powerful women and if Oprah is having Jennifer in her program is because last year is was THE most seen show ( the one with Jen on it ).
Angelina lovers really move on even angelina has move on !

GO. AWAY. ANISTON.

This has to be a joke. I can’t beleive she would go on Oprah to talk about her love life. That is just crazy and a number 1 example of a celebrity wanting to stay in the rags. If true to go on Oprah to denounce rumors about a relationship you never confirmed was a relationship is crazy.

I don’t like vince. I think he’s ugly. Not a match for Jen…

she’s stunningly beautiful? her make up artist must be in ICU
rite now after doing a verrry hard work for her horse face.
and ofcourse she denied having a breast implants. just like she
said “i did i do and i will” about having kids. means? lie!
she and vince are still together? since when she claimed that
they were an item?
stupid wierd old bimbo!

aaaaaghh! sorry i was choking, i cant believe some loser said chinnifer anuston and stunningly beautiful in one sentence, why doesnt she and vaughn hold hands and walk into the ocean where anustn walks her dogs clutching their leashes as the poor doggies deperatlly try and run from her into the loving arms of the truly stunningly beautiful angelina jolie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The person who said she was stunningly beautiful must be some old hag because Jennifer is one of the ugliest famous people I have ever seen. Even though I will watch Oprah’s show here and there , she has not had Angelina on because Oprah is an ego-maniac, if she thinks anyone will upstage her then I can see her being jealous. If Angelina were to show up, her philanthropic efforts would shame Oprah because Anglina doesn’t have half as much moey as Oprah and yet she actually is more involved than Oprah could ever hope to be, whereas Oprah proselitizes, Angelina actually goes, not once or twice but many, many times. She will always have Jennifer on because she is plain, boring and just fluff, there is no substance there.
