“Mickey Rourke thinks most actresses are C-bombs” links Posted: 23 Nov 2011 09:16 AM PST Note by Celebitchy: Tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the US and we will be taking the day off. We’ll probably be off most of Friday too depending on what’s happening. Thank you and have a great holiday! Mickey Rourke thinks most actresses are C-U-Next-Tuesdays.

Hot Guy Thanksgiving: Dong for the Holidays Posted: 23 Nov 2011 09:15 AM PST Michael Fassbender & Viggo Mortensen. Some of you think Fassie and Viggo look alike. Some of you think that 53-year-old Viggo looks better/younger than 34-year-old Michael. Some of you don't even "get" the Fassdong obsession. Come to the dark side, my loves. The Dark Side has well endowed Irish-German hustlers and twinkling blue eyes. The Dark Side will rock your world. And as for Viggo… well, I'd still hit it. But I'd just want him to get a haircut first. Jason Momoa. My Momoa crush came and went so quickly, I almost forgot about him. Yes, he's beautiful and hot and pretty and sexy. He's also dumb as a box of hair, and the movie-going audience doesn't really want to see him as a lead actor. For now. Does that mean we can still lust after him? Of course. He doesn't need to be smart. It's nice to have some equal-opportunity eye candy around here – Jason can just stand around and look pretty, and that's all we need for now. Eric Bana. The Bana is perfect. He's a great actor, he's funny, he's complicated, he's adorable and mind-numbingly sexy all at once. I love him. Idris Elba. He made the short list for People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive, which was an unexpected gift. Maybe People Mag’s editors don’t hate our vaginas after all? No, they do. Bradley Cooper is evidence of that. Still, Idris’s sexiness crosses all bounds, nationalities, races, creeds, and religions. Just don’t ever check out his music, though. Benedict Cumberbatch. The ‘Batch is an acquired taste, and I only got into him after I saw the new BBC Sherlock series. He’s so oddly beautiful, so delightfully strange. Plus, he’s really tall and he’s got a great voice. Love him. James McAvoy. That was a good segue, right? From the ‘Batch to the McAvoy. I don’t even need to put down a reason for why you should love James. He’s wonderful and amazing and adorable. And look, I don’t want to be annoying, but check out McAvoy’s bulge. The little guy is packing. David Gandy. Much like Jason Momoa – Gandy doesn’t have to speak. He just needs to stand around looking pretty. That’s good enough for me. Tahar Rahim. By repeated request by a small but devoted band of Rahim-loonies. I think his face is too “sweet” to be considered truly sexy, but he’s got great eyes. Matt Smith. He doesn’t do it for me, but I know there are lots of nerdy Dr. Who fanatics out there who get totally hot for him. Enjoy! Joel McHale (By CB). Joel has replaced Matt Damon in my fantasies. He just turned 40(!) and you can see some funny footage of an interview he gave at his birthday party on E!. Unfortunately it looks like “Community” has been canceled (which Dani Pudi confirms in that video) but there’s always “The Soup,” where we loved him more anyway. Donald Glover (By CB). Also from “Community,” we have Donald Glover, 28. If Glover seems like a dimwit goofball, that’s just because he’s such a good actor. Glover has a movie coming up called “The To-Do List” with Connie Britton and Rachel Bilson. I would love to see him get more work. He’s hilarious and has perfect comic timing. Will Estes (By CB). This guy is on “Blue Bloods,” and seeing him on screen is the highlight of that show. Of course there’s also Donnie Wahlberg and a still-hot Tom Selleck, but Estes steals every scene he’s in. He has a baby face, but he’s all of 33 so I don’t have to feel guilty for lusting after him. Adam Yamaguchi (By CB). I’ve been watching the documentary series Vanguard, on Current TV, and I find myself staring open-mouthed whenever Yamaguchi is on. He’s fine, he’s smart and he cares about things that matter. You can check him out here. Henry Cavill (by Bedhead) I am thankful for the fact that the new Superman, while British, possesses an authentic six pack instead of those newfangled CGI abdominals very popular with the likes of Ryan Reynolds. Also, Cavill is still humble despite the fact that he’s so bloody gorgeous and about to become huge. Can I please have him over to my house for the holidays? Chris Evans (by Bedhead) This guy’s had an incredible year and should only get better in the near future. Yes, Evans looks as if he’s perpetually about to burst into tears, and his waxed nips are quite possibly outweighed by his neuroses. Yet I still adore him and am thankful for actors who actually anguish over their budding careers rather than sign onto any project that will have them. Jeremy Renner (by Bedhead) This guy isn’t classically handsome in any sense of the word, but he’s still quite captivating and the only reason that I’d watch the upcoming Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (Tom Cruise who?). In addition, he sight of Renner carrying Hawkeye’s crossbow is, well, delicious. Between him and Evans, The Avengers will provide some much needed eye candy. Did I mention Renner’s cute little (NSFW) butt? Yeah, I’m thankful for that too. Denzel Washington (by Bedhead) Since I just rewatched Training Day a few evenings ago, Denzel is fresh in my mind, and I am thankful that he is such a diverse actor. While he certainly has appeared in his fair share of cinematic stinkers, he always turns in authentic performances and looks mighty fine while doing so too. Timothy Olyphant (by Bedhead) Most of all, I am thankful for the sexy swagger of Olyphantastic. Not only does he have the lanky body type that I appreciate, but he knows how to work it without a conscious strut. Swagger is a very subtle art form, and I can’t wait until early 2012 when “Justified” hits the airwaves again. More Olyphant. That is all.

Angelina Jolie: “I’m still a bad girl, it just… belongs to Brad and our adventures” Posted: 23 Nov 2011 09:14 AM PST Angelina Jolie's promotion for her directorial debut (for full-length feature film), In the Land of Blood and Honey, is starting now. I guess it really started when she got the cover of Vanity Fair a few months ago, but now it's super-serious. I wonder how much press Angelina is going to do as writer-director, and how much press the actual film actors will be doing? Yes, most of the actors are not well known to American audiences, so Angelina's name is going to be the biggest selling point. But it will be interesting to see how much press she does in support of the film. For now, though, Angelina is going to be on 60 Minutes on Sunday! Huzzah! CBS has already released a short video clip and some interview excerpts: She wasn’t always toy shopping with Shiloh and visiting with refugees in the Congo. Prior to her current, globe-trotting wife as an actress, humanitarian, mother of six and longtime partner to Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie first became a household name as a weird, risk-taking Hollywood hottie. Now 36, the star (whose directorial and screenwriting debut In the Land of Blood and Honey is out in December) says that the much-parodied darkness of her earlier years was very real — and very scary. “I went through heavier, darker times and I survived them. I didn’t die young,” Jolie tells 60 Minutes’ Bob Simon in a new interview airing Sunday. “So I am very lucky. There are other artists and people that didn’t survive certain things,” adds the Oscar winner. But, she teases to Simon: “People can imagine that I did the most dangerous, and I did the worst. . . for many reasons, I shouldn’t be here…You just. . . too many times where you came close to too many dangerous things, too many chances taken too, too far.” Not that she’s completely reformed, of course. “I’m still a bad girl,” Jolie insists. “I still have that side of me. . . it’s just in its place now. . . it belongs to Brad–or our adventures,” she gushes of Pitt, 47, her man since 2005. [Via Us Weekly] That was kind of hot – "I’m still a bad girl… I still have that side of me. . . it’s just in its place now. . . it belongs to Brad–or our adventures." Sexy adventures. With whips and lots of leather. No wonder Brad looks so tired. But with the good comes the bad. A British tabloid – Grazia, excerpted in The Mail – claims that Angelina is subsisting on a mere 600 calories a day and that she's just wasting away. Which is weird, because in photos recently, Jolie hasn't been looking so super-skinny. She looks like she's been eating solids, more so than the Duchess of Cambridge: Angelina Jolie's weight is said to hover around the 97lb mark – underweight for her 5ft 8in height. Regardless of her emaciated frame though, sources say Angelina rarely eats a full meal and frequently forgets to eat. According to Grazia magazine, Angelina survives on as little as 600 calories a day, which is the equivalent of two bowls of cereal with milk. ‘Angelina has been known to start her day with little more than a spoonful of coconut oil and a handful of cereal,’ a source told Grazia last week. ‘The worrying thing is that she is so busy, she often forgets to eat. Sometimes she’ll skip lunch altogether or will just grab a few almonds and some gummy bears while she’s on the go, or will have a protein-based shake rather than anything more substantial. Then dinner could be something like a lean steak and a glass of red wine.’ The Grazia source said: 'What with her career, Brad and their six kids, Angelina has a lot on. Yes, stress plays a part. She is the type of person who drops weight when she’s stressed out. She simply loses her appetite and can survive on almost nothing. But a lot of people are worried that she is taking things too far and that she won’t have the strength to do all the things she wants to do if she doesn’t gain some weight. Everyone has been begging her to eat more and she is trying not to get any skinnier, but unfortunately she just doesn’t seem to be putting on any more weight.’ [From The Mail] Meh. I don't even buy that Jolie only weighs 97 pounds. My guesstimate for her weight is around 110-120 – very slender, with some muscles and some hips and boobs. I mean, could Angelina stand to put on 10 pounds? Yep. 20 pounds? Sure. She would even look great with 30 more pounds. But no matter how much weight she gains, I think the weight usually only goes to certain areas – when she gains weight, it seems to go to her boobs and mid-section, never to her legs and arms. She just has the skinny arms & legs gene. Skinny bitch! Photos courtesy of Reuters, screen caps from 60 Minutes.

Amber Heard ditched ‘Rum Diary’ co-stars (including Johnny Depp) after work Posted: 23 Nov 2011 09:00 AM PST Amber Heard covers the December issue of Women’s Health, which paints a pretty complimentary picture (as well as a flattering photoshoot) of Amber as a very dedicated actress who also happens to be a voracious reader during her off-duty moments. Also, remember that ridiculous story from In Touch about Heard abandoning her lesbian ways for Johnny Depp? That little rumor gets dispelled in very short order as well: On Keeping Work At Work: She won over Rum Diary director Bruce Robinson and, it would seem, her costar Johnny Depp. When some of the cast went out to blow off steam after a day of shooting, she would disappear. And at the end of filming, says Robinson, “I remember Johnny and I saying, ‘Jesus, where’s Amber?’” What young actress passes up drinks with a film god like Johnny Depp? One who prefers to make an impression on the job, not off it. But also, one who was in a serious relationship at the time. With a woman. On Keeping A Fitness Routine: If a routine is broken, it’s easy to backslide into laziness. So keep telling yourself, I want this. Because after you get into a routine, your body will want it. “Once you start working out, you feel better and it becomes something you make time to do,” says Amber. Many women hit the gym to look better, but that can’t be your only motivation. Otherwise, you’ll feel discouraged when you don’t see results fast enough. “It’s about feeling healthy,” says Amber. And that’s something that happens the minute you make a positive change. On Her Exercise: “I personally run, just because that’s all, for me in time management, running seems to be the most time — accommodating exercise to do. I have recently gotten into tennis, and I also do Pilates in LA. It’s funny, because once you start working to really do an hour, you start feeling so much better that it becomes something that you make time to do. We as human beings always make time for the things we really want. I just feel so much better when I start working out that you just find time to do it.” On Cooking: Amber prefers to make her own food — even when she works a 90-hour week — so that she can control what ingredients go in (mostly vegetables and lean protein). Amber reads food labels — and if she sees an ingredient she doesn’t recognize, she often leaves the item on the shelf. That might limit you in the snack aisle, but it will lead you to eat fewer processed foods. “You feel better when you’re eating food that retains nutritional value,” she says. [From Women's Health] Yeah, this is the usual generic fitness advice that most features in women’s health magazines tend to issue on a monthly basis. Nothing new there. However, the part about Amber “ditching” her co-stars for after-work drinks (and more) is actually pretty cool and interesting. She’s a professional and not a casting couch type, and that leads one to believe that Amber isn’t merely a flash in the acting pan. However, this article certainly implies that Johnny Depp was completely game for drinking with the cast and crew on a nightly basis, right? That’s not terribly surprising, for he’s been hitting the bottle hard lately, and it shows. Photos courtesy of Women’s Health

Jennifer Love Hewitt’s latest boy-toy dumped her via text message Posted: 23 Nov 2011 07:26 AM PST A few days ago, I saw some photos of Jennifer Love Hewitt looking rough and eating ice cream (photos at the end of the post). My first thought was, "Bitch, where's your bandage dress now?" My second thought was, "Girl, do you have your period? I'll let you borrow some Midol, hon." It didn't even occur to me that Jennifer Love was drowning her sorrows in her favorite drug of choice, Pinkberry. But she was! According to In Touch Weekly, J.Love just got dumped. AGAIN. This time by that very young-looking boy-toy, Jarod Einsohn. Jarod and Jennifer lasted about three months together. And Jarod dumped her via text message. OH GIRL NO. Jennifer Love Hewitt might just be the most unlucky-in-love Hollywood starlet! Her latest boyfriend, 27-year-old actor Jarod Einsohn, has broken up with her — via text message, a source tells In Touch exclusively. Despite having a dating-advice book, The Day I Shot Cupid, the 32-year-old actress has had a string of boyfriends that all seem to dead end in a breakup. In the past year alone, Jen Love has dated or been linked with Alex Beh, The Bachelorette's Ben Flajnik and Jarod, and all those relationships abruptly ended. A source claims to In Touch, "She cannot keep a boyfriend. She is very overbearing, and if things don't go her way, she becomes a diva and flips out." Jarod and Jennifer had been dating since August. [From In Touch Weekly] Poor J. Love. I mean, she's insane and she's basically repelling men at this point, but I still want her to do well. Remember when she used to date famous guys? And nowadays, she's just dating dudes that are trying to be actors but barely have an IMDB page. You'd think her casting couch would be a little bit more efficient, but I guess even out-of-work actors run screaming from the "gig" of "dating Jennifer Love Hewitt" when she starts talking about all of the rings she has pre-selected at Tiffany's. Here are those photos of J.Love shame-spiraling post-breakup. Think of your extensive collection of bandage dresses, J.Love! DON'T SPIRAL. Get out the vajazzler and find someone new.

Jennifer Aniston spends $60K on a three-month hotel stay in LA with her lover Posted: 23 Nov 2011 05:27 AM PST Jennifer Aniston sold her Ron Burgundy-inspired shag-pad earlier this year for some kind of astronomical markup. Then she bought two condos in NYC, and then she and Justin Theroux went public. Yes, I'm saying that part of the Theroux "conspiracy" involved real estate – Theroux is a New Yorker, and I think Aniston was trying to look all, "Hey, I can be a New Yorker too! Forget that I was a California girl for two decades!" At this point, Justin and Jennifer seem to be splitting their time between NYC and LA. When in New York, they stay at Aniston's place, it seems, and when in LA… who knows? In September, there were reports that Aniston had rented a small, two-bedroom luxury bungalow, but there's evidence to suggest that they moved out quickly after the paparazzi came out. Now The Mail reports that while in LA, Aniston and Theroux are staying at the Sunset Tower Hotel – at a cost of $20,000 a month. And guess who's paying? She is rarely seen without him these days and is currently looking to snap up a property to set up home together. But it seems that Jennifer Aniston has been splashing the cash on a luxury hotel room for herself and Justin Theroux shelling out $60,000 to stay for three months. The Friends star, 42, and her beau have been holed up in the famous Sunset Towel Hotel in a plush sweet that has been serving as their love nest in recent weeks. The Horrible Bosses actress has been without a pad in Los Angeles since she sold her Beverly Hills mansion for $38 million in July 2011. She still owns the first home she bought in the city but she now rents it out to celebrity friends. Prior to moving into the hotel on Sunset Strip, with past residents including Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor, Frank Sinatra and Errol Flynn, the pair were said to be renting a house nearby but moved out after being pestered. The couple are said to have celebrated their six-month anniversary by the hotel pool with Aniston’s favorite drink Kristal champagne accompanied by Beluga caviar. Jennifer, who is known for her incredible figure, also marked the occasion by indulging in a $22 Burger and fries with truffle oil. Staff say that with room service and generous tips Aniston’s final tab could easily reach $100,000. During her stay Jennifer has spent some time showing off her incredible figure and guest have seen the couple indulging in spots of public displays of affection during their stay. On hotel staffer noted that Justin was: ‘smoothing sun lotion over her body and kissing her neck. It was getting quite steamy.’ The couple’s love nest is a favourite haunt of Miss Aniston and along with celebrity clientele, several films, including The Italian Job, Get Shorty and The Player have been filmed there. Aniston has been a regular for years at the The Tower Bar restaurant restaurant which boasts ‘elegant dining experience’ with cozy tables for two and, like the rest of the hotel, stunning views of Hollywood. Staff have been sworn to keep tight-lipped about their high-profile guest but one staff member blabbed: ‘Miss Aniston has been coming her for years. She likes it here because we respect her privacy. We’re under orders to make her stay perfect in every way. She’s a very generous tipper. She’s like family to us.’ [From The Mail] Kristal and cavier? $22 hamburgers? Necking by the pool? Jennifer Aniston will have her gigolo and she will enjoy the hell out of him, by God. I think I'm finally starting to come around on the whole boyfriend/girlfriend dichotomy with Justin Theroux – meaning that at times he seems like the picture-perfect boyfriend who will hold Aniston's hand and shave his hipster beard for his lady, AND he will also be the perfect girlfriend for Aniston, getting mani-pedis and going on shopping sprees with her. But I understand it now – when Aniston's paying Justin is up for whatever she wants. He's a very easy-going guy, it seems. Photos courtesy of Fame & Pacific Coast News.

David Cross and Amber Tamblyn are getting married soon, bizarre or cute couple? Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:22 AM PST Did you remember that Amber Tamblyn, 28, and David Cross, 47, were engaged? I didn’t. Kaiser put it in the links in August, and a quick look back at our archives reveals that these two were first spotted making out at a party back in 2008. They’re still together, they’re engaged, and it sounds like they’re having a lot of fun. US Weekly got a brief quote from the happy couple on their upcoming wedding. There’s no date given for when it’s planned and they just joke around about it, but their wedding is probably coming sometime soon. David Cross and Amber Tamblyn’s nuptials will be “a fun show for our guests,” the Modern Family actor, 47, tells Us. “We’ll take the piss out of a traditional wedding.” He cheekily adds that he knew the actress, 28, was The One because “a letter in the mail” said so. Jokes the bride-to-be: “He’s a pathological liar.” [From US Weekly, print edition, December 5, 2011] Well good for them! I know Amber from “House” and she was also in 127 Hours. I don’t watch “Modern Family” and I didn’t get into “Arrested Development” when it was on, so I’ll always know Cross as Ian from Alvin and The Chipmunks. Cross is coming back in the third installment of the series, Alvin and The Chipmunks: Chipwrecked. It’s out this December and I’m sure my kid will drag me to it. The Chipmunks movies have CGI characters as stars so there’s not likely to be a ton of promotion from the voice actors or the actors who play humans. I’d love to hear more about Cross and Tamblyn’s wedding, though. It would be great to see photos too. It sounds like they’re going to throw a great party. Photos are from 11/15/11, 11/14/11 and 9/16/11. Her engagement ring is cool! Credit: WENN.com/FayesVision and Joseph Marzullo/WENN.com

Kirstie Alley: “Getting on a treadmill every day would make me slit my throat” Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:22 AM PST There are new photos of Kirstie Alley over at The Mail – she looks decent, but I think that's mostly because she's finally following my advice and dyeing her hair a darker brunette – it makes her look so much younger. Oh, and she's also smoking a cig. That does not make her look younger, but I suspect that's how she's keeping some of the weight off – using cigarettes as an appetite suppressant. Fortunately for me, Kirstie is often photographed smoking, so it's not like we don't have lots of photo evidence of her current cigarette-based diet. Still, Kirstie is trying to convince us that she's staying in shape by dancing. Two months after revealing her new, 100 lbs.-lighter figure, Kirstie Alley is looking svelte and fabulous as ever, despite the pitfalls that come after losing weight. “Maintenance probably is the hardest part,” Alley, 60, told PEOPLE at last night’s Dancing with the Stars. Her solution? Dancing. “I dance almost every day,” says Alley, adding that her own run on the show “gave me something that I can do every day that I actually love that doesn’t feel like a hardship or a grind. Come on, getting on a treadmill every day would make me slit my throat.” And she’s got her former dancing partner Maksim Chmerkovskiy to thank for keeping her exercise tedium at bay. “To warm up, I do the cha cha that Maks and I did,” she says, adding that her current dance teacher does ballroom fitness with her, which “kicks your ass, it’s crazy.” To supplement her dancing, Alley uses a weight loss product called Rescue Me that she also promotes. Thanks to it, she says, “I probably have more energy than I’ve ever had in my life.” [From People] "Getting on a treadmill every day would make me slit my throat…" Seriously? I find the treadmill so relaxing. I wish I could use it every day because I get to blast my music and daydream and get a decent workout on the treadmill. If I had to dance every day, I would… well, I wouldn't slit my throat. But I would get seriously bored if I had to dance every day. By the way, these photos are from early November… Kirstie IS gaining some weight back. Once again, that's fine. But she's so delusional, she probably thinks she's holding at a "size 6".

Will Princess Charlene announce her pregnancy before Duchess Kate? Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:22 AM PST These are some photos of Princess Charlene and Prince Albert of Monaco from this past weekend's celebration of Monaco National Day. Albert and Charlene did a balcony wave, they went to church to…? I don't know, get a blessing? Mass? I'm not Catholic, and all of those Catholic things are a complete mystery to me. For the big day, Charlene wore this conservative beige suit that doesn't really suit her, and she had her bangs (trauma) front and center. Still, she looked happier than she has in a while. She's slowly coming around, or they readjusted her meds or… …Maybe she's pregnant? That's the royal muttering around Europe. Style watchers have pointed out that Charlene has been wearing some looser clothing as of late, plus her schedule is looking a little light in the coming months. “I love children, and I simply can’t wait to have a family of my own.” Speaking shortly before her spectacular wedding, Princess Charlene was clear about her desire to become a mother. And she’s always very attentive to youngsters she meets in the course of her new role as the first lady of Monaco. Well, her dream may be about to come true, according to the latest rumours. For a recent church service, 33-year-old Charlene, a former Olympic swimmer, who usually favours figure-hugging outfits that show off her statuesque figure, was elegant in a loose taupe dress under a black jacket. Meanwhile, the Palace has announced a new Facebook site to replace the one created for the nuptials in July – leading to speculation that aides are clearing the way for their most important news yet. Further fuelling reports, she’s also left her new husband Prince Albert to carry out a number of engagements on his own. Although the South African beauty did explain her absences during a recent interview, citing the need for “a bit of a break”. If an heir to the Grimaldi legacy is on the way, the news will be greeted with excitement in the principality. When she stepped out on Sunday with Albert, his sister Caroline and her 12-year-old daughter Alexandra, the entire royal party received an enthusiastic reception from well-wishers. [From Hello Magazine] I sincerely hope Charlene is knocked up. I say that because I think Charlene seriously considering leaving him and annulling the marriage, but she decided to stick with it for however long she could. Meaning, until she provides an heir. So I hope they get on that quickly. Here's my guess: Charlene will announce her pregnancy before Duchess Kate. But what happens if Charlene has a girl? They would have to try for a boy, correct? I'm including the Today interview again just because Charlene and Albert are such a riddle. Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy Photos courtesy of WENN.

Britney Spears on her greatest challenge: “Trying to get up & go work out” Posted: 23 Nov 2011 04:22 AM PST Britney Spears is right on the cusp of turning 30-years-old; to be precise, she will do so in two weeks. In some respects, Britney still seems really young at heart, but she’s also been through so much in the past several years that it’s difficult to believe that she’s not yet 30. And in that vein of thought, Britney recently sat down with UK’s Stylist publication to discuss both her Femme Fatale tour and her latest perfume, which will probably be just as successful as all of her other fragrances. Honestly though, I have to wonder … exactly who buys these perfumes? Although I do adore Britney, there has been absolutely no moment in time when I’ve decided that it would be a great idea to smell like her. Sure, she claims to shower twice a day, but I’m not buying it. Just saying. At any rate, Britney’s interview with Stylist (during which the interviewer notes that the pop star was “surrounded by a few close confidants“) isn’t so much illuminating in regard to new information as the impression that Brit has very much been looking inward lately. If her words are to be trusted, then Britney is attempting to find happiness within herself before she goes looking for external gratification. This is a good thing, right? On Her Biggest Challenge: “Trying to get up and go work out in the morning. I haven’t worked out in, like, two weeks. Sometimes it’s hard to be motivated. But once you get up and do it you feel like you've conquered the world.” On Her Favorite Foods: “Chocolate. Definitely chocolate. A lot of chocolate. I love Scores in the States, with the caramel in the middle, and every once in a while if I’m really hungry then a Snickers bar is good. And M&Ms are great, Hershey’s Whoppers are great, Raisinettes… Twixes are great too. And the new Hershey’s Cookies & Cream, too.” On Being A Musician In 2011: “Well, it’s really cool because there are so many new, up-and-coming artists to look at and be inspired by. For me, I think it’s great to have a little competition because I feel it inspires us [Team Britney] and makes us want to do better. There are so many soulful singers, even the ones coming from London, like Adele and Jessie J, who are just amazing. It feels like a really cool time to be making music now. In the beginning obviously I was very young and I didn't know the ins and outs of things; I was very instinctive in what I wanted to do, and I was very vocal with my input on things. I think as the years have gone by, and as I’ve evolved as an artist, I’ve put even more into my career, and after that amount of time you start to know exactly what you want. You feel a little bit more in your skin, in terms of who you are. And that just feels really nice.” On What She’s Reading: “The Mastery Of Love [sub-titled A Practical Guide To The Art Of Relationship by Don Miguel Ruiz]. It’s basically an analysis of love and what it means to love. It goes through all the different aspects of love. Who you are as a person, knowing yourself before you even attempt to love anyone else’ that sort of thing. It’s really well-written and thought-provoking. It’s not so much about learning something; it’s one of those things where you already know this stuff, but it’s good to instil it in yourself again.” On The Meaning Of Success: “For me, success is a state of mind. I feel like success isn’t about conquering something, it’s being happy with who you are.” On Fame: “Well, in some situations I’d love to be able to, y’know, put a disguise on and go to a restaurant and not be noticed. But actually it’s been pretty cool on this tour, there haven’t been that many paparazzi and I’ve been able to get out with my children and go and see a lot of things.” On Her Dream Vacation: “It would be with my children of course, and my boyfriend Jason [Trawick, also Britney's agent]. and really that’s it. We’d probably just go skiing somewhere really beautiful and have hot chocolate, in a cabin…” On Ryan Gosling, Her Former “Mickey Mouse Club” Colleague: “I’m a huge fan; I think he’s amazing. I think he’s a wonderful little actor. He definitely has that ‘something’ on film; on camera, which is really cool. So I’m very happy for him.” [From Stylist.co.uk] While there are several points worth noting here, I think the most obvious point to be made is that this interview seems (on its surface, anyway) to be far less scripted than most of Britney’s recent media interactions. She seems really candid with these answers and like she’s really buried herself in a lot of self-help books and techniques of late. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, of course, for Britney also comes off as far less medicated with these answers than we’ve grown accustomed to in the aftermath of her much publicized 2007 breakdown. Also, it’s rather refreshing that Britney has embraced the notion of competition from up-and-coming pop stars. This attitude arrives in sharp contrast to one Christina Aguilera, who clearly expresses distain for all newcomers, including Lady Gaga, who Xtina thinks is copying her. Naturally, Brit is still flying (relatively) high, and Xtina is currently floundering as an “artist.” A lesson exists in there somewhere. Photos courtesy of Fame
