Leeza Gibbons
Every time Hollywood thinks they've figured her out, she cleverly moves another step up the ladder and successfully places another title among her many achievements. It's Leeza Gibbons' passion and drive combined with her warmth and wisdom that has enabled her to become one of the most respected and recognized professionals in the broadcast industry.From television news journalist and host, to radio personality, producer and businesswoman, Gibbons has been entering America's living rooms for over 20 years. She was recently named the host of Lifetime's successful primetime magazine, "What Should You Do?", a dramatic reality series offering empowering, life-saving information about moments of crisis. This is just another outlet for Gibbons' brand of offering programs and products that enhance the lives of women and their families.It was a need to serve her own family that prompted Gibbons to leave her daily post as managing editor and host of the newsmagazine "Extra" in order to form the Leeza Gibbons Memory Foundation (a 501c3, non-profit) - her most personal endeavor to date.
'Beginner's Greek': Guy gets girl, then loses phone number...
Somebody call Amy Adams. The "Enchanted" princess would be perfect as Holly, the lovely strawberry blonde at the heart of James Collins's first novel Beginner's Greek. Readers will find themselves naturally playing casting director while reading this good-hearted comedy of manners, because the novel (knowingly) plays off so many romantic-comedy conventions that Meg Ryan could ask for a cut of the royalties. Under Peter Russell's Wall Street suit beats the heart of a wistful romantic. He's always dreamed of love at first sight, and when Holly plunks down in the seat next to him on a New York-L.A. flight with her copy of "The Magic Mountain" by Thomas Mann (which just happens to be the only German novel Peter's ever read), he can't believe his good fortune. Five life-changing hours later, Holly gives her phone number to Peter.
Joe Garofoli
It flicked Shuster off the bottom of its shoe before sundown Friday, saying he "has been suspended from appearing on all NBC News broadcasts, other than to make his apology (Friday). He has also extended an apology to the Clinton family. NBC News takes these matters seriously, and offers our sincere regrets to the Clintons for the remarks." But is that enough? Can this debate be saved? Ellen "Emily's List" Malcolm is pissed. (Can we say that?) Emily -- a huge Clinton fan -- wrote a letter to NBC news czar Phil Griffin Friday saying "the misogynistic pattern in the reporting by your network must come to an end. I know I speak for millions across this country when I demand that you take immediate steps and publicly tell us what you will do to eliminate this sexist and demeaning culture that has become so pervasive in your network." Ouch.
Barrymore can't believe her "Hollywood beauty" tag
BEIJING, Jan. 16 -- Actress Drew Barrymore is amazed she has been declared a "Hollywood beauty" as she has struggled with acne her whole life. The "Charlie's Angels" star said that she is always struggling with acne problem and battles to keep her skin clear. "My only beauty recommendation is zit cream. I couldn't live without it. I get zits all the time and they annoy me more than anything else in the world. I've used every face wash, acne cream, everything," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. The 32-year-old actress also admitted that she still lacks confidence in her appearance. "It's so funny because people say, 'You've got such great skin', and I'm like, 'Are you kidding?' "I guess now I'm getting older I'm getting more wrinkles to go with the pimples.
