Freida Pinto On The Cover Of Vogue India

Freida Pinto On The Cover Of Vogue India
(NSI News Source Info) February 27, 2009: Freida Pinto, star of Oscar-winning film Slumdog Millionaire, has made it onto the cover of Vogue India.
The actress began her career as a model but has never graced the cover of the fashion magazine before.
Posing in a metallic mini-dress by Louis Vuitton, Pinto is described as "the new style sensation".
When the Vogue writer asked the photoshoot stylist, Tiina Laakkonen, who Pinto was not dressed exclusively in Indian fashion, Pinto grabbed a pencil and scribbled: "Because she's international now!"
Pinto was signed by a leading model agency aged 21, after leaving university. She said recently that she took the job as a route into acting: "Honestly, I remember harbouring dreams of being an actor since I was five years old. For someone like me with no godfather in the film industry, it was easier to break into modelling. I did use modelling as a means to get into the film world. I enjoyed modelling. It taught me a lot in terms of being confident and definitely helped me prepare for what was to come next.
The 24-year-old has just landed her first post-Slumdog role, cast in Woody Allen's latest film. She will star in the as-yet-untitled project opposite Sir Anthony Hopkins, Naomi Watts and Josh Brolin. It will hit cinemas in 2010.
She is rumoured to be dating her Slumdog Millionaire co-star, 18-year-old Dev Patel.

Brenda Song: Friday the 13th Cutie
(NSI News Source Info) February 10, 2009: She’s one of young Hollywood’s most promising rising stars, and last night (February 9) Brenda Song was spotted at the Los Angeles premiere of “Friday the 13th.”
The “Suite Life on Deck” hottie worked the red carpet like a pro, sporting a sexy tan dress with beaded and sequined accents teamed with a pair of silver peep-toe heels. In a recent interview, Brenda got real about the pros and cons of being an actress, as well as the pressures to be a good role model.
She told press, “Being an actress is difficult. Sometimes they won’t look at you because you don’t have blue eyes and blond hair, and it’s 10 times as hard to get through the door. Sometimes they’re just not looking for an Asian actress. That was difficult when I was younger, but it’s all part of the job. At the end of the day, it makes you a better person. You can’t think of yourself as an Asian American actress. It’s not about what you look like, it’s about what you do … and who you are as a person.”
She continued, “Oh goodness, I hope I can set a good example. If I can do it, anyone can. I’m living my dream every single day.”

“The thought of somebody in Los Angeles, where I come from, purchasing the one pack of Pampers ... by doing this that they were going to do anyway, they could ... provide one vaccine for another mother somewhere else in the world, someone they don’t know ... these anonymous women around the world coming together to protect women and to protect children was really exciting.”

Here's the gruesome twosome from The Hills doing what they do best (pretty much all they do, really) at club AREA in West Hollywood, California: During this grand event, Spencer Pratt hosted the party while the great Ya Boy himself performed his hit single, "We Run LA."

(NSI News Source Info) February 4, 2009: As she embarks on her massive comeback tour, Britney Spears is hopeful to have her boys Sean Preston and Jayden James along for the ride. But according to Kevin Federline’s attorney, nothing has been set in stone just yet.Mark Vincent Kaplan told press, “We are working toward that. There can be an agreement reached in probably the next day, but there is not an agreement that is signed yet.”
The deal that is being worked out involves K-Fed traveling with the kids to see Miss Spears in different cities along the tour. Kaplan explained that Brit will be able to see her two sons on “pretty much the same schedule that she has now,” which is three days a week.
“Kevin is working to make them accessible by going on various central locations in various areas of the country, and his is doing that because he wants her to be able to have the maximum positive environment around her to assure that the tour will be successful.”
Kaplan added, “I don’t think the kids will be at venues. They will be available in her life when she is done with the rigors of performing.”
As for K-Fed’s new flame Victoria Prince, Kaplan said he wasn’t sure if she’d be joining him on his jaunts around the country. “I don’t even know if they know yet, but she is a very solid person and they are really great together. She is very solid, responsible and [has had a] very positive effect.”
