Well, Kirsten is in London!
It's not often she films in London when I am there too... aww perhaps I will
pass her in the street? lol. I very much doubt it huh! Anyway, I would love
to know where she is filming 'How To Lose Friends And Alienate People', so
if anyone knows the locations, please email me. I love to scoop it out for
the site! I am excited to hear Kirsten has so many projects in the pipeline.
She also seems particularly happy with her new bea Johnny. I am keeping busy
with lots of web work. I am also surfing the net for high quality sites to
host. If your interested then email me. I hope you like the new layout...
its always good to have a change :)// Jess xx
KIRSTEN NEWS
After the madness of April a comparatively quiet month for Kirsten. Here's
a round up of what happened.
TV Blitz = Kirsten appeared on 4 more TV shows at the start
of May to promote Spider-Man 3. First up was an appearance on Total Request
Live on May 1st, along with the rest of the main cast from the film. On May
2nd Kirsten was interviewed on The Today Show, and was a guest on Live With
Regis And Kelly. The same day she also recorded an interview for The Early
Show which was broadcast the following day.
Stepping Out With Johnny = Kirsten made her first public
appearance with her boyfriend Johnny Borrell on May 7th when they attended
the Annual Costume Institute Gala in New York. The event was held to mark
a forthcoming exhibition of work by early 20th century fashion designer Paul
Poiret, and was a truly star studded affair. Kirsten wore a vintage Yves Saint
Laurent dress to suit the occasion and Johnny wore his cowboy boots!.
Howzat? = Johnny is a big cricket fan and he introduced
Kirsten to the delights of cricket (LOL) when he took her to Lords Cricket
Ground to see the second days play of the First Test Match between England
and The West Indies on May 18th. Kirsten must have enjoyed it as they made
a return visit two days later!.
Razorlight Groupie! = Kirsten has continued to follow Razorlight
around the globe this month. On May 10th she was at their concert in New York,
and on May 27th she travelled to Landgraaf in Holland to see Razorlight perform
at the PinkPop Festival. Kirsten's good friend Liat also attended this event.
MOVIE NEWS
Lot's more movie news this month. Here's the details.
Spidey Swings To A New Record = Spider-Man 3 was released
worldwide at the start of May. The film did amazing business on it's opening
weekend setting a new U.S record OF $151 million for it's first 3 days takings.
Since then the US box office figures have been slightly disappointing and
by the end of May the film had grossed approximately $310 million at the U.S
box office. Conversely the film has done amazingly well virtually everywhere
else and by the end of May the overseas box office had already topped $500
million, a figure far higher than either of the previous two Spider-Man films
made. By the end of May the film was in 19th place on the all time U.S box
office list and in 15th place on the all time worldwide box office list.
Losing Friends In London = Two weeks of rehearsals for How
To Lose Friends And Alienate People took place in London starting on May 21st.
Ten weeks of filming begin on June 4th. Most of the filming will take place
in London (yay!) and the remainder will take place in New York.
Gaining Friends In London = The main cast for How To Lose
Friends And Alienate People have now been announced. Joining Kirsten and Simon
Pegg will be Jeff Bridges, Gillian Anderson, Danny Huston (who appeared in
Marie Antoinette), British actresses Lindsey Duncan and Miriam Margoyles,
and rising stars Megan Fox and Max Minghella. That's quite a cast director
Robert Weide has put together!.
Persepolis = No that's not a spelling mistake!. It's reported
that Kirsten will be voicing one of the characters for the english language
version of the French animated film Persepolis. The black and white film tells
the story of a young girls childhood in Iran and (the french language version)
was shown at this years Cannes Film Festival. The english language version
is expected to get a limited release in the U.S this autumn. (Many thanks
to forum member TopHat for providing this info).
Kirsten to Direct! = Kirsten is planning to direct her first
short film in August, which will star her long time friend and actress, Michelle
Williams! "It’s a ghost story and its part of this Glamour reel.
They’re totally giving me carte blanche, I pick my letter, I write my
script, I pick everyone who I want to collaborate with and it’s great.
" Kirsten said in a recent interview.

As Kirsten will be filming in London we're not expecting her to attend any
