Simon Cowell: Christmas in Barbados

Simon Cowell: Christmas in Barbados
(NSI News Source Info) December 27, 2008: Skipping out on the whole notion of having a “white Christmas,” Simon Cowell was spotted frolicking around the beach in Barbados yesterday (December 25).
The snide “American Idol” judge looked to be having a marvelous time in paradise, hanging out with British billionaire Philip Green as well as spending some time on a wave runner.
As for the upcoming season of “AI,” Cowell recently told press that he’d be tickled if comeback hero Britney Spears were to get involved.
“She would, literally, be first on the list as far as I’m concerned in any capacity. I would love to see her mentor the contestants, but if she doesn’t want to do that, and she wants to come on the show and perform, I would welcome her anytime.”
And as it turns out, when the “Gimme More” songstress was on Cowell’s “X-Factor” in the UK, it was a very positive experience. “The buzz we had on our show when she came on was extraordinary. And even with all the stuff that’s gone on with her the past two years, there was more excitement and interest in her than I’ve seen in anyone in years. She would be very, very welcome.”

Aishwarya refuses L’oreal Sonam approves

Aishwarya refuses L’oreal Sonam approves
(NSI News Source Info) December 26, 2008: Aishwarya Rai Bachchan didn’t win the Miss World title just for the heck of it, she is smart and intelligent and that’s the reason she refused to endorse L’oreals latest skin lightening cream. When Ash refused, L’oreal appointed Sonam Kapoor as their new brand ambassador. A source says, “It was the fairness cream that bothered Aishwarya. She said that she didn’t want to promote a fairness cream especially in India where one’s skin color is such a big issue.
She will never promote a product that discriminates on the basis of one’s skin color. Ours is a society where biases are so prevalent that she will do all she can to curb it.”
“When Aishwarya refused to relent, the cosmetic company was forced to get Sonam into the picture. They need an Indian face for the promotion and Sonam was the next ideal choice,”
The source adds, “Such stories seldom bother her. Aishwarya is primarily guided by her sense of ethics as far as advertising is concerned.
She does not endorse products unless she believes in them. She was recently offered a fortune to replace Rani Mukerjee to endorse a popular mosquito repellent cream, but she turned down the offer.”
Well hats off to you Ash, for standing by your ethics.

SRK: Everybody watch Ghajini
(NSI News Source Info) December 26, 2008: SRK has decided to end the cold war between him and Aamir by requesting each and everyone to watch Aamir latest flick Ghajini.
SRK says, “I want all the people to watch the film’. We as people from the industry know how much pain it takes to make a film. We wait anxiously every Friday to see the result of our hard work. So my best wishes are with every film be it Aamir’s or Akshay’s. I want every film to do well.” He also denied his rivalry with Aamir, saying, “We share an extremely cordial relationship.”
He gave an example of their recent meeting, where they discussed their abs, “I was scared as I lost my six packs and wanted Aamir to say no. Luckily, he said he has lost his packs too, so let’s give a chance to some other actor.”
Talking about Aamir he says, “I think he has changed for the better. Previously, he did not like to interact much with the public and the media, but now he interacts well and has also developed a sense of humour.”
Well I don’t think such diplomacy will solve the cold war.
