Found Not Lost

Fans of Johnny Depp will be eagerly awaiting his next adventure as the Mad Hatter in the classic Lewis Carroll fairy tale, Alice in Wonderland which is again going to be directed by Tim Burton and is set to be released in 2010. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp have previously worked together in Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Sweeney Todd. I’m a fan of both and I can’t wait to see their take on one of my favorite classics.

Imagining what they would come up with, I can almost see something like Annie Leibovitz’ vision of Alice in wonderland:

10/08/08 UPDATE: Just saw this first look of how the movie will look like. I think it’s already getting that “Tim Burton” feel

Why am I not surprised? Clay Aiken admits he’s gay. Finally, after trying to hide it all these years when it seemed obvious to everyone else. Poor guy’s been working so hard to hide it; that’s what most people thought when it was first announced he’s having a baby. People thought he’s doing a Michael Jackson. I’m sure he feels the weight lifted off him now that it’s out.

Clay Admits He's Gay

You weren’t surprised, were you?

I just found out that one of my favorite actors, Morgan Freeman was in a car accident and is no in critical condition. They say that his car flipped several times when he skidded off the road in Mississippi. He was airlifted to a Memphis hospital and he is in serious condition, they say. I’m praying he comes through this accident. He is one of my favorite actors and I never fail to watch his movies even if he’s not playing the major role. He just adds so much to every movie he’s in. Love him!

I found out bout the news via Twitter, believe it or not. I have been getting the latest breaking news because of tweets from fellow bloggers. For instance, last weekend when I started to panic over my websites not showing up for some people, I found out via Twitter that it was a Sitemeter problem. Solved my problem within minutes, and I looked like a hero. If you are still not Twittering, you need to get started. Make sure you follow me too.

I can’t get the image of that guy screaming “leave bitney alone!!!” out of my head every time I thin of Britney Spears now. Thank goodness I don’t think about her that much. lol! But, with her recent traffic mishap putting her back in the spotlight, one can’t help but hear about her.

The media paparazzi have a field day everytime one of these starlets get into trouble. The sad thing is, they are prime fodder for gossip material with all the antics they get into and the addiction treatment they seem to be constantly getting in and out of. Some of it is probably just a publicity gimmick, but I think that some of these celebrities just have had their brains fried and are just plain stupid.

I was just watching The Late Show with David Letterman. His guest was the lady who hosts Big Brother (sorry can’t remember her name now - I think it’s Julie?). Anyway, they were talking about someone who got thrown out of some award show for heckling the winners.

The name sounded familiar, Sean Young, but I just couldn’t quite remember who it was. I was thinking Sean Penn, but he’s had his act together for a while now and has gotten quite respectable so I didn’t think that could have been him. So I searched for Sean Young on the internet and it finally dawned on me who she was. What a shame. I really did like her in that movie she did with Kevin Costner. I still remember going to see that movie. Aside from that one though, I hadn’t seen her star in many more movies. I think she’s had it rough and hadn’t handled it well either.

It’s really sad…. and too bad.
