Mr & Mrs Smith Hits Small Screen

Are we now trying to pitch Angie against Brad? They are together and they are happy. The past is the past. The changes they have made is what show the strength of character. They are progressing, they are moving forward. Both Brad and Angie had a rough time with the media, neither one of them was spared. They even started comparing Brad with Vince and they started making Vince look good. Hello, I thought it was Vince that had a mug shot and have one night stands. Both Brad and Angie had it rough but only their love saw them through. In the recent interview that Angie had with DS, when they DS used the word wild, she did not quite agree with that. She said she was lost and she was trying to find her way. As for Brad, I won’t say dating a younger girl makes him wild.

I agree whit Cliniqua: to me the best actors that can play Mr and Mrs Smith on the small screen are ROY DUPUIS and PETA WILSON, from the FEMME NIKITA tv show.
The chemistry between them was just INCREDIBLE….!!!!
At the some time I think that Brad and Angie should play MICHAEL and NIKITA caracters in a new remake of Nikita by Luc Besson… I hope it happens one day… Angie and Peta are friends.

and now.. GIMME A BREAK. you say Rachel Bilson is cute? CUTE?! WTF. Angelina Jolie. this two words mean everything that is connected with being a woman. not a small elf with no talent.

mr and mrs smith2???that would be….

186 million wow…..i saw it 6 times in the theatres

Thank You !

I dont like Oprah but I don’t care how she spends her money and I love that she did this.

Oprah Winfrey opened a school Tuesday for disadvantaged girls, fulfilling a promise she made to former President Nelson Mandela six years ago and giving more than 150 students a chance for a better future.

”I wanted to give this opportunity to girls who had a light so bright that not even poverty could dim that light,” Winfrey said at a news conference.

Mandela was among the guests at the opening of the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls in the small town of Henley-on-Klip, south of Johannesburg.

”This is a lady that has, despite her own disadvantaged background, become one of the benefactors of the disadvantaged throughout the world,” Mandela said in a statement.

Singers Tina Turner, Mary J. Blige and Mariah Carey, actors Sidney Poitier and Chris Tucker and director Spike Lee also were in attendance. Each guest was asked to bring a personally inscribed book for the library.

Winfrey has said that she decided to build her own school because she wanted to feel closer to the people she was trying to help.

The $40 million academy aims to give 152 girls from deprived backgrounds a quality education in a country where schools are struggling to overcome the legacy of apartheid.

By educating girls, Winfrey said she hoped she could help ”change the face of a nation.”

”Girls who are educated are less likely to get HIV/AIDS, and in this country which has such a pandemic, we have to begin to change the pandemic,” she said.

Many of the girls come from families affected by the disease, which has infected 5.4 million of the 48 million population and hit women disproportionately hard.

Winfrey referred repeatedly to her own impoverished childhood and said she was grateful that she at least had a good education, declaring this to be ”the most vital aspect of my life.”

”I was a poor girl who grew up with my grandmother, like so many of these girls, with no water and electricity,” said the talk show host, dressed in a pink ball gown and jacket.

She vowed to make the academy the ”best school in the world” and promised that she would continue to support the girls so they could attend any university in the world.

The idea for the school was born in 2000 at a meeting between Winfrey and Mandela. She said she decided to build the academy in South Africa rather than the United States out of love and respect for Mandela and because of her own African roots.

She said she planned a second school for boys and girls in the eastern province of KwaZulu-Natal.

Many state-funded schools, especially in the sprawling townships that sprang up under white racist rule, are hopelessly overcrowded and lack even basic necessities such as books. They also are plagued by gang violence, drugs and a high rate of pregnancy among school girls.

Top-class study and sporting facilities are available, but are largely confined to private schools that are still dominated by the white minority as they are too expensive for many black and mixed race South Africans.

Winfrey’s academy received 3,500 applications from across the country. A total of 152 girls ages 11 and 12 were accepted.

To qualify, they had to show both academic and leadership potential and have a household income of no more than $787 a month. Eventually the academy will accommodate 450 girls.

The 28-building campus boasts computer and science laboratories, a library and theater along with a wellness center.

Winfrey rejected suggestions that her school was elitist and unnecessarily luxurious.

”If you are surrounded by beautiful things and wonderful teachers who inspire you, that beauty brings out the beauty in you,” she said.

Lesego Tlhabanyane, 13, proudly wore her new green and white uniform at the ceremony to raise the South African flag.

”I would have had a completely different life is this hadn’t happened to me. Now I get a life where I get to be treated like a movie star,” she said.

Winfrey, who does not have children, said she was building a home for herself on the campus to spend time with the girls and be involved in their education.

”I love these girls with every part of my being. I didn’t know you could feel this way about other people’s children,” she said.

Maniston spotted in Mexico with C Cox + D Arquette, Sheryl Crow AND Giuliana DiPandi from E!.

So expect BIASED reports from E! in the future.

for those of you who have a problem with OPRAH using her own money to invest in people who are in need what is your answer to ending poverty in AFRICA and how and when do you plan to implement it.

*******************************************

As I said in my post, I think the Millenium Villages are a much more realistic and far-reaching solution, so I support those by donating and educating myself. As malibumom pointed out, Maslow’s Heirarchy of Needs is a great model to follow. You must meet basic needs first, then you can move on to higher intellectual areas. I feel the MV’s will do this for more people, men, women, boys, and girls…. therefore have a greater societal impact. As lylain and a few others said, Oprah’s school is experiemental, so I will be interested to see how this fares as the years go by.

I think E! became less biased because they were caught trespassing on BP’s property, so they are trying to redeem themselves.

Yes, I think they were just kissing-up to Brad’s boo-tay for the time-being. Can’t stand them or their programming. I’s no wonder that people have a negative view of the J-P’s if the nly inf they ever get is from E! and rags. You have to look a little harder (like blogs, haha!) to find the good stuff! Brad’s becoming a powerful player on the HW scene, so maybe, even if just out of fear, they will get off he and his lady’s case for good.

It’s really different on here in the daytime. I’ll just go back to lurking till I get the feel of things here.

Good Morning!

I saw that article with _ in Mexico and my take on it is Boy! is David Arquette some lucky dude! He looks like he was two wives, one is the official one, and the other is the best friend! Seriously, I wonder how much he likes having to deal with not one, but two women (or three if you count Coco). I mean the family can’t make a move without having to drag _’s heinie with them!
