Taylor Swift Sexy In Allure Magazine
Taylor Swift talks about sex life, "It's fine to talk about love publicly, but I think when you talk about virginity and sex publicly, people just automatically picture you naked," she told Allure magazine when asked if she's chosen to remain a virgin. "And as much as I can prevent people picturing me naked, I'm going to."Choosing not to talk about her sex life is one of the few ways Swift remains private, since she thinks it's important to keep her fans in the know about almost everything. One of the keys to Swift's success is her MySpace blog, on which she's written about everything from her breakup with Joe Jonas to redecorating her bedroom."I never would have sold any records if my fans hadn't gone out and bought them. It's so incredible to go out and sign autographs for nine hours straight, for me," she told the magazine. "That's just my favorite thing to do, honestly."Taylor Swift’s Allure Magazine - April 2009

Lindsay Lohan graces the cover of the April 2009 issue of Nylon Magazine.Here is what she has to say about Samantha Ronson, Britney Spears, and her career.Here are the highlights of her interview:On Having Her Picture Taken:I love doing photo shoots… I mean, if I could just sign with IMG and do ad campaigns and model more, I’d do that… because that’s fun for me. That’s not work.Her one Mean Girls reference:There’s not much I can do about the fact that I’ve become a kind of tabloid obsession. I can’t change that. And yes, the websites, the gossip pages, and all of that stuff have hurt my career – they’re like the Burn Books of Hollywood… but I really don’t feel like I should have to prove myself to anyone because of living out my college years in the public eye. I’m glad everything happened the way it did.On Britney Spears:She’s marketed as an entertainer, which is what she is. Not necessarily as, like, an artist. And I respect that about her, cause she doesn’t want to pretend.On her future:I’m talking to [lots of people]. One is Sean Penn – I spoke to him again the other day. We’re trying to get Seth Rogen for this project, but Seth won’t call us back. So call us back, Seth, if you’re reading this!Lindsay Lohan - Nylon Magazine April 09' issue
Megan Fox And Robert Pattinson Kissing At Lakers Game
Robert Pattinson and 'Transformers' beauty Megan Fox are apparently dating. Rumours started when the 'Twilight' star and Megan were were spotted enjoying each other's company in a Los Angeles hotel.One source said: “They met up at the bar. They were both drinking - Stella Artois for Rob, Merlot for Megan. At first they were seated at a table, but then they switched it up and sat on a couch for maximum closeness.” Megan (22) and Robert (22) were both staying at the hotel, and were spotted together at the bar on a subsequent evening. A source said that “they were flirting, laughing and drinking”. Pattinson - who is currently filming Twilight sequel New Moon in Vancouver, Canada - first made a beeline for the Transformers star at last month's Oscars - but Fox apparently ignored him to chat to Lord of the Rings actor Andy Serkis.A source said at the time, "Robert Pattinson tried to chat but she wasn't interested. Gerard Butler and Jason Statham also headed her way."But Megan spotted Andy and made a beeline for him. She introduced herself and told Andy how much she loved 'The Lord of the Rings' films and had read all the books and 'The Hobbit' when she was 10.".Megan Fox and Robert Pattinson at Lakers Game [Source]
Anna Faris' Comedy Ambition
Anna Faris wants to do comedy for the rest of her career.She said: "I used to be like, 'You know what? I'm going to show this town! I can act! I can cry!' I wanted to play a heroin-addicted prostitute that gives birth to a baby that only has one leg."And then I thought I kind of don't want to explore those darker parts of my personality at all. I would love to do comedy for the rest of my life."Despite her skill for comedy, Faris was convinced she was going to be fired from her breakthrough role in spoof "Scary Movie" for not being funny enough.She told Arena magazine: "I was a very serious child. I did act from a young age, but only did very dramatic stuff, and I never thought comedy would be wear I end up."When I got the first 'Scary Movie', I thought they were going to figure out really quickly that I wasn't funny and I'm going to get fired."[Source]
Gene Simmons At Canadian music Week
KISS frontman, reality TV star and non-stop entrepeneur Gene Simmons delivers the keynote address for Canadian Music Week. He recently announced he is forming a record label, partnering with former MP Belinda Stronach for this venture, that will focus on finding and promoting new Canadian talent.Gene is an interesting speaker. Lots of charisma, a few controversial ideas, very funny. It was a good speech, and he made it all up off the top of his head.The real highlight of Canadian Music Week will be the coming weekend when over 500 bands will be performing multiple showcases in nearly every club in the city. It's a massive live music party, rivalled only by the huge North By NorthEast Festival in June.I'll be covering the Indie Awards on Sat. with performances by some of the best up and coming acts.Listened in on the conversation amongst the photogs for the major papers while we were waiting to go in (1 hr. delay), and it seems the big rumour is that at least one, possibly two, major Toronto dailies are moving to be fully video in the near future.The plan is to use screen captures off the video cameras for the newspaper photos, video only on the websites.Photographers will becomer largely superfluous.I was talking to a guy last month who had just been let go by the Toronto Sun. He's photographed every single Toronto Maple Leafs game since 1992. If you need someone to do hockey shots, this guy is the master class on doing that.But I can't help but wonder, what kind of a skill is that in the larger world? In the sports journalism niche it's priceless, outside of that, next to useless. And now he has to claw his way back into a sports journalism world that is rapidly video-izing.The media were held back in three waves for placement within the huge room the event was happening in which was completely sold out for Simmons appearance. First the TV cameras, then the major newspapers and wire service guys, and last (of course) the online media.Now, the two major private TV networks in Canada are hemorhaging money. One is rumoured to be going under, and both have had hundreds of layoffs, stations closed, overseas bureaus shut.They're even so poor there's talk of them giving up station licenses they can no longer afford.All this is being blamed on lower ratings leading to sharply declining ad reveue.The major newspapers have been cutting staff with equal enthusiasm (last I heard the National Post was down to just two photographers), dwindling readership, declining ad revenue, etc. etc.Supposedly all the ad revenue is fleeing to online internet sites - because I haven't heard one story of hard times in the Advertsing business, I actually believe this. All that money is still being spent somewhere.So my question is; What's with the online media always being treated like the poor cousin and getting the absolute dregs when it comes to photo ops? If traditional media is in decline, new media ascending, why are we third in line to get a spot in the room?For that matter, why is it that every press conference I attend, the writers are right up front with a perfect view?This is a group who could (and often do) conduct the questioning over the phone, or by direct link with a studio on another continent if they had to.While the people who need line of sight are all way at the back - and in this room for Gene Simmons I mean WAY at the back. The 400mm equiv. (50-200mm Zuiko) lens I was using wasn't nearly enough from where we were postioned.It's like there's a traditional way these things are done and nobody is ready to move on yet.TV and major print always get preferential treatment because that's the way it's always been.And the channel that, more and more, everyone uses - online media - gets treated like an after-thought because no one knows what to do with us :)It's ironic that Gene, as the keynote speaker, mentioned many times during his speech how there has been a seismic shift in how things are done, about the need for 360 degree marketing in this all-new environment and for new creative thinking and different approaches.Yet there's the media, all frozen in time, arranged in a rigid pecking order from another era.I say, lets put the writers on the riser at the back, put the photographers and videocams at the front (with a rope to keep the TV guys from getting out of control and filming the subject from a foot away, ruining it for everyone else) and see if that doesn't get us better visuals while not hampering the writers in the tiniest little bit.For this press conference the live audience in attendance would have kept the organizers from doing things this way.But for the future ... Come on communications people. Think this thing through.
