Nicole Kidman has a new role coming up, and it’s a totally unexpected character! Even more shocking though is the person playing her love interest!
Nicole has signed on to star in The Danish Girl opposite Gwenyth Paltrow! The role portrays the story of Nicole’s character, Einear Wegener, the first post-operative transsexual.
According to Variety, Gwyneth just joined the cast, and will star as Greta, the supportive wife of Nicole’s Einar.
In the story, Gwyneth’s character is a portrait painter who asks her husband to stand in for a female model. From there, she encourages him to continue wearing a dress and stockings after the portrait becomes increasingly more popular. When Einar (Nicole) makes the transformation to Lili, Greta’s plan backfires by causing tension in their marriage.
The film has yet to set a release date.
Daring role ladies! We can’t imagine any better actresses to portray such controversial and courageous characters.
It looks like Gwyneth Paltrow is no longer the apple of Chris Martin’s eye!
The Coldplay frontman was busted in a “hot make-out session” with Paltrow’s BFF Kate Bosworth, according to Star magazine.
“I couldn’t believe my eyes,” an eyewitness told the rag. “There was Chris totally making out with Kate in front of other people. At first I thought it might be Gwyneth, but when she came up for air, it was clear the woman was Kate!”
More details to come in the Nov. 16 issue of Star. We are always skeptical of the accuracy of their stories, but if this one turns out to be true it won’t surprise us. We hear Gwynnie is a real stick in the mud — so this was bound to happen eventually!
As beautiful and successful as Gywmeth Paltrow is, it’s no surprise that she’s now revealing that someone she considered a friend was “hell bent” on taking her down.
“Back in the day, I had a ‘frenemy’ who, as it turned out, was pretty hell-bent on taking me down,” Paltrow said in her GOOP newsletter.
“This person really did what they could to hurt me. I was deeply upset, I was angry, I was all of those things you feel when you find out that someone you thought you liked was venomous and dangerous. I restrained myself from fighting back. I tried to take the high road.
“But one day I heard that something unfortunate and humiliating had happened to this person. “My reaction was deep relief and…happiness. There went the high road.”
Well, karma is quite the nasty bitch.
Blogs are suggesting that her frenemy could be Winona Ryder, who was arrested in 2001 for shoplifting an estimated $4,760 worth of clothes from Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills.
Gwyneth Paltrow thinks pal Joaquin Phoenix needs to get some street cred before pursuing his new rapping career.
“I think that there might be some other explanation or something going on. I’m not quite sure what, but I can’t believe that he’s really going to quit [acting] forever to become a rapper,” she told MTV UK during a promotional junket for Two Lovers. “It seems odd.”
When asked what advice she has for her costar, who also appears in the film, she replied, “Hmm … maybe to go live in the projects for a few years to get some authenticity, maybe.”
We’re sure Joaquin appreciates the advice Gwyn, but we doubt it’s necessary since this whole hip-hop gig is probably a huge hoax!
After high as a kite Joaquin Phoenix made a total ass of himself yesterday afternoon at the taping of The Late Show With David Letterman, he continued to fall to rock bottom by attending the evening premiere for his new flick with a very uncomfortable looking Gwyneth Paltrow!
Phoenix continued his magical mystery tour by walking the red carpet with Paltrow at the New York City premiere of Two Lovers at the Landmark Sunshine Cinema.
I think Gwynie’s WTF look on her face says it all! I hope Phoenix did TV interviews on the red carpet there - there’s nothing better than more train wreck TV.
I also hope Joaquin has a big bottle of Xanax waiting for him when he wakes up tomorrow morning or night or days from now and sees how he acted last night. He sure as hell is going to need it. Yikes!
Looks like actress Gwyneth Paltrow is taking her career in another direction — she’s writing her own cookbook!
The book will be entitled My Father’s Daughter and is set to be released in 2010. And according to publishers Janklow & Nesbit, the book “focuses on the importance of togetherness at mealtime, emphasizing that cooking for your family is the ultimate expression of love.”
The book is dedicated to her late father Bruce Paltrow, whom she spoke about in an interview with Us Magazine.
“My dad was an insane pancake maker,” she said. “I’m just working on a recipe right now. I’m adapting it to make mine slightly more healthy.”
I’m sure this book will be a good way to get over the death of her father. Hopefully, it’s got some substance, unlike a lot of other celeb cookbooks out there!
Just because Gwyneth Paltrow is an A-list celebrity doesn’t mean she doesn’t gain holiday pounds just like the rest of us and she’s now ready to shed them.
In her recent newsletter, GOOP, Paltrow is giving her fans the skinny on how she plans to shed those pesky holiday pounds.
“I need to lose a few pounds of holiday excess. Anyone else?” she says. “I like to do fasts and detoxes a couple of times during the year, the most hardcore one being the Master Cleanse I did last spring. It was not what you would characterize as pretty. Or easy.”
Paltrow has decided that the detox based solely on lemon water isn’t for her, but she’s determined to flush the pounds away.
She’s cutting out dairy, grains with gluten, meat, shellfish, anything processed (including all soy products), fatty nuts, nightshades (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers and eggplant), condiments, sugar and alcohol, caffeine or soda, according to Usmagazine.com
Instead, her diet will consist of salads, fruit smoothies, chicken, soups and lots of water.
We think Gwyneth looks great, but completely understand needing to beat the holiday bloat. Good luck Gwynethth, we’re sure you’re BFF Madonna will hit the gym with you for that extra kick!
