| Christopher Hampton: The award for least prepared speech goes to...
I didn't think I was going to win last time either, but this is a very good year for films. There's the Coen brothers and Paul Thomas Anderson and Ronnie Harwood and ... what's the other one?" Sarah Polley for Away From Her, the film starring Christie, actually. It's about Alzheimer's. Hang on, was that a screenwriter's joke he just made? The others are up for No Country for Old Men, There Will Be Blood, and The Diving Bell and the Butterfly respectively. "There is a feeling that the Coen Brothers have waited a long time," he says, "but this is their year. It's their turn." We meet the day before he leaves for LA, on the top floor of a gorgeous townhouse near Notting Hill Gate. The view is spectacular, over the rooftops or down through the frosted bones of trees to Ladbroke Square Gardens.
Special prosecutor to probe actions of Elgin cop after New Year's ...
A special prosecutor has been appointed to investigate whether an off-duty Elgin police officer committed a crime after a New Year's Eve brawl at an Elgin hotel, authorities said Friday. Officer Chris Darr was assigned to desk duty after the incident at the Holiday Inn in which his father, former Elgin Police Chief Jack Darr, was seriously hurt and nine people were arrested. Chris Darr has not been charged with any wrongdoing, but the Illinois appellate prosecutor's office will investigate the incident to avoid a potential conflict with Kane County prosecutors, State's Attorney John Barsanti said. Because Kane County prosecutors work with Elgin police on a daily basis, Barsanti said he asked the department to seek another agency to investigate Chris Darr's actions. "Some of the witnesses are officers, and we have relationships with some of these guys," Barsanti said.
Hip-Hop Rumors: LaLa Plumps Up, Amerie Dropped? AHHmerican Gangster!
Somebody hit me with this as an explanation as to the title of Mariah's new CD, E=MC2.
“Just to clarify your Mariah E=MC2 comment it has nothing to do with Eminem. E stands for Emancipation(as in the title of her last album) MC is self explanatory and the 2 or squared simply means part 2. Emancipation of Mariah 2 but doesn't E=MC2 sound alot better."
Ddot the King hit me with that.
Charlamagne from Wendy Williams said this:
“Come on illseed! Mariah's album title is E for Emancipation the MC for Mariah Carey and the 2 represents the Sequel - Emancipation Part 2."
LMAO! I didn't really think that the E meant Eminem, but it's more interesting that way.
