The Dishing Diva

I’ll Dish It, and the Celebrities can Eat It Up

Madonna has marital woes, and it also seems she has movie woes.

She released her “Filth and Wisdom” directorial debut three weeks ago and there was quite a bit of fanfare at New York’s IFC Center. She really hasn’t received any critical acclaim as an actress, but she did receive some positive reviews for directing this feature starring members of the group Gogol Bordello.

It now seems that New Yorkers aren’t really into it. So far, “Filth and Wisdom” has sold just over $18,000 in tickets since its release October 17th. What is ironic is that it’s not even playing in New York! The odd film played in just three theaters over the weekend: in Toronto, St. Louis, and Columbus, Ohio.

The three cinema showings this past weekend was down from 10 the week before.

Her soon to be ex hubby Guy Ritchie isn’t doing much better. His “RockNRolla” seems to be another box office bust for him. It’s only made $3 million since its release on October 8th. On Halloween, Warner Bros, increased its screens from 19 to 826. Not even that effort helped it along. On Sunday when the take for most movies is up, “RockNRolla” fell 28.7 percent.

She has a concert in L.A. tonight and supposedly Justin and Britney will be there to perform with her and there’s no doubt she’ll be getting great reviews for that.

Zac and Vanessa wowed their fans into a frenzy at a press conference in Mexico City last Thursday for their latest movie-musical High School Musical 3: Senior Year.

Vanessa wore a gorgeous purple slip dress from Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent. It’ll be available in stores next month if any of you are interested!

Zac was recently asked what was the highlight of his entire HSM experience was and his reply to CosmoGirl was:

“I think that one of the moments that we all look back on as pretty amazing was in the first movie, when we filmed “We’re All in This Together.” We were all in our elements in that moment. It was the time of our lives and that was the beginning of it all. Another standout moment for the whole cast — I know it was for me — was the finale of the third movie, the very last thing we shot. It was very surreal to look at how far we had come.”

I was wondering what was going on (if anything) with Jessica Simpson’s comedy, “Major Movie Star” so I clicked around and found this little write up from Fox News:

“The “Private Benjamin” – like film has never opened here in the United States. But on October 9th, “Major Movie Star” debuted to top box office in… Russia.

Next up for a movie described by one of its participants as “maybe one of the worst films ever made”: a November premiere in Bulgaria.

So far there’s no U.S. release date set. Nor is there one for any other country in which English is the primary language.

No fewer than 15 producers are listed on the credits of “Major Movie Star” including Jessica’s enterprising dad, Joe. The director was Steve Miner, whose credits are mostly from television.

While Jessica’s singing career transition into country star has gone pretty well so far, her movie credits seem to be getting worse rather than better. She’d be substantially better off, frankly, having a sitcom in which she can play herself.”

I wonder what if anything Jessica thinks when she reads such things like the above quote. The movie is about a bubble gum movie star who enlists in the U.S. Army because she is so broke - will have its next premiere in Bulgaria next month.

Jessica’s last movie, Blonde Ambition, went straight to DVD after being released in only eight Texas theaters.

Diva   Jessica Simpson, Money, Movies, News October 2008

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and Lindsay obviously sent Madonna the message that she loves her look since she showed up to Madonna’s New York premiere of her latest film with the same hairstyle. Actually, now that I think about it, Britney wore her hair styled the same way at the MTV VMA’S in early September… so does that mean that Madonna and Linds stole her style?!

Forget the hair, it’s interesting that another producer put up lots of money for another Madonna performance. She’s been in many many movies and I still haven’t seen a good one! She has to be one of the few actresses out there with this many movie credits and no hits.

I can’t think of any other diva who has had as many chances to act as Madonna has and has managed to mess up. Her last film, “Swept Away” with her husband Guy Ritchie who directed, seems to have swept away his career and their marriage since he wasn’t at this premiere!

Musical Nine Cast

London’s Cipriani restaurant hosted a dinner for the upcoming movie musical Nine cast members last night. Harvey Weinstein the producer gathered together Dame Judi Dench, Kate Hudson, Sophia Loren, Marion Cotillard and Fergie for dinner.

They will start to shoot in a few days time. The film is being directed by Rob Marshall and is about a famous film director played by Daniel Day-Lewis as he tries to find some peace in his professional and personal lives. The film is about the relationships with his wife, his mother, his mistress, his muse and his agent.

What a fantastic cast, can’t wait to see it!

Britney And Adnan There Is No Tape

Update:

Adnan Ghalib has told Star Magazine that there is no sex tape. He went on to say that Heat Magazine made up the quotes and that he never filmed himself and Britney: He said:

“I don’t know where these quotes I’m supposed to have said have come from. What I do know is they certainly didn’t come from me and they are completely false. I’m extremely upset and distressed and I’m taking legal action… This story has caused a lot of hurt to my family and people close to me.”

This guy has balls. He used to earn a living taking pics of celebs that were usually attached to a ridiculous story about the celeb which hurts that celeb and the celeb’s family as well.

Now he knows what it’s like being on the other side of the cam and says he’s going to sue??

Hypocrite!

Paris And Benji Looking Cool

Here they are attending a private screening of her upcoming film ‘Repo! The Genetic Opera’ held at the Abbey in West Hollywood last night. I don’t know what look they are going for but it is NOT working for either of them. They look like a couple of freaks for frig sake.

What is it about her? She’s dating him so she changes her whole look so that they look like they belong together? It’s kind of sad, I almost feel sorry for the two of them.

Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan has been dumped from the movies Manson Girls and Ye Old Times. Lindsay rep is claiming that the reason  for not doing the movies was ’scheduling’ conflicts. Let’s think about this, Lindsay is in desperate need of a job, so why would her schedule conflict with a movie. She isn’t doing anything else!

I’ve been waiting for the day when Hilary Duff crossed over to the dark side, and she’s finally done it and did it with style and class!
Her latest film “War, Inc.”, with co-star John Cusack, has her delicately putting a scorpion down her pants! I just never imagined her doing that let alone anyone else doing that! The little grin she makes right after is classic!

Lindsay Lohan ’s next film will be opening this weekend in limited release. The film is called Chapter 27, and is about the life of John Lennon killer Mark David Chapman Her co-star is Jared Leto. She next shoots the quirky comedy Ye Olde Times with Jack Black and David Arquette this spring.which will hit theaters in 2009. She has also signed on to play Nancy Pitman a former member of Charles Manson and his cult in another movie role for the film titled:Manson Girls. E! News is reporting exclusively that the movie’s producer Brad Wyman of Junction Films has confirmed the casting of her with this quote:
“Yes, I am doing it with Lindsay,” he tells E! News.
