Gossip Girls II

Serena van der Woodsen

Serena is a prominent member of wealthy New York City society. She is tall, blonde and beautiful with a spontaneous personality. She attends boarding school for a year, but after failing to show up for classes in the fall, she is kicked out and taken back by her old private school, Constance Billard. She is also an aspiring actress and model. Serena landed the lead role of Holly Golightly (originally played by Blair's role model Audrey Hepburn in Ken Mogul's remake of Breakfast at Tiffany's entitled "Breakfast At Fred's." Serena has a highly tumultuous friendship with Blair Waldorf, and has decided to not attend Yale University with Blair in the fall due to Ken Mogul's announcement that there will be a sequel to the hit movie "Breakfast at Fred's. Described as being irresistible to men, she has been pursued by and involved with several characters throughout the series. She lost her virginity to Nate Archibald while away on vacation with him. She will be portrayed by Blake Lively on the TV series.
Blake Lively is 5'8 and is disappointing as the impossibly beautiful Serena in terms of looks at least.

Jenny Humphrey
At age 14, Jenny is the youngest of the Gossip Girl characters although she possesses the enormous DD chest on her short stubby body. She is the younger sister of Dan. Jenny is an aspiring artist with wild curly hair. She often tries to fit in with the rich girls at her school, Constance Billard, even though she lives on the Upper West Side and in a crumbling apartment. She wishes to be just like Serena (her role model) and often goes on wild and embarrassing exploits to set up an image for herself. After partying repeatedly with a rock group the school principal tells her she must either repeat her year or change schools. She ends up going to boarding school to reinvent herself as the "It Girl", a la Serena. She is now the main character in a spin-off series called " The It Girl". She will be portrayed by Taylor Momsen on the TV series.

Taylor Momsen is going to be 14 years old when the series airs and is 5'4.5.

Gossip Girls I

Gossip Girl is an upcoming show on the CW airing in the fall of 2007 on Wednesday nights. Based upon the novels by Cecily von Zeigesar of the same name, Gossip Girl revolves around the lives of socialite young adults growing up on New York's Upper East Sidewho attend the most elite of education institutions while dealing with sex, drugs, and other teenage issues. Featuring an ensemble cast, the series mainly centers around the lives of best friends, Serena van der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf and their shared romantic interest, Nate Archibald. As outsiders looking in, Dan and Jenny Humphrey do not run in the same social or financial circles as their peers but are nonetheless drawn into their lives as well.


Blair Waldorf


Blair is a short brunette who is always competing with Serena for status as the prettiest and most popular girl. She can be catty, bitchy and will generally do anything it takes to get what she wants. She has an on again/off again boyfriend, Nate. Blairs' mother is a socialite who is divorced from Blair's father, a gay man who lives in France. Her role model is Audrey Hepburn and her main goals in life are to go to Yale University and to marry Nate.


Leighton Meester portraying Blair on the show is 5'5 and a brown eyed brunette.

Megan Fox I

Megan Fox kicks robot ass in this month’s highly anticipated box office behemoth Transformers. This 21-year-old actress is morphing into a full-fledged movie star! Here are some snippets from her July 2007 interview with Maxim:

How have you avoided the cliched road to rehab? I’ve done drugs, and that’s how I know I don’t like them. Cocaine is back with a vengeance–everyone in every club is doing drugs. A lot of people are on prescription drugs. Celebrities aren’t trying to hide it, except where people have camera phones.
Did you go through an experimental phase? I wanted to try several things and make an informed decision, but I didn’t enjoy anything other than marijuana. I don’t even think of it as a drug–it should be legalized. I know about five people who aren’t on drugs today, and I’m one of them.
Finally, a celebrity who isn’t afraid to tell the truth! I’m blunt and maybe too honest. But being outspoken is good for women, particularly when it come to sex. Women are supposed to be on magazine covers dressed provocatively, but they’re not allowed to talk about sex? That double standard angers me.
Don’t forget to breathe… I really enjoy having sex, and that’s offensive to some people. Women are the quickest to call other women sluts, which is sad. I haven’t met a lot of men who’ve said, “You like having sex? What a dirty whore you are!” That’s because they wish their wives or girlfriends would have more sex with them.
What kinds of things put you in a good mood? I’m young and have a lot of hormones–I’m always in the mood. But I like sex with one person in a relationship. Sex with random-ass people at clubs isn’t what I’m about.
You’ve got nine tattoos. Are you trying to break Angelina Jolie’s record? Every time I get a tattoo, it’s a little ****-you to anyone who tells me not to. It’s weird to be part of Hollywood, which tries to control every aspect of people, from what they say to the color of their hair. And I like the way getting a tattoo feels. If I’m depressed, it’s nice to get one and deal with the pain. I have one all the way down to my ribs. It hurt, but it felt good–like twisting a loose tooth. I’m not kidding when I say that if I ever lose a role because of my tattoos, I’ll quit Hollywood and go to work at Costco.

TMZ.com calls her an Angelina wannabe because of her tattoos but her plumped up lips are also reminiscent of Jolie's famous pout. Either way this girl is much hotter than Angelina was pre surgery or is now.

Mrinalini Sharma

Indian supermodel plays a Pakistani beauty in Awarapan!

HOT and photogenic, Mrinalini Sharma is not new to the world of showbiz. A popular model, she is the face of several prestigious campaigns. This leggy lass graduated from ramp to reel with a scintillating dance number in Prakash Jha's Apaharan opposite Ajay Devgan. And now Mrinalini makes her debut in the world of acting with Mohit Suri's eagerly awaited Awarapan (releasing on June 29) opposite Emraan Hashmi, in which she plays Reema Zaidi, an alluring Pakistani beauty. The aspiring actress on her new role……….

Was it easy for you to land a role in Awarapan?

For Vishesh Films (the Bhatts' production company), which has produced Awarapan, is different, the script is bigger than the actors, and they depend on a tight and gripping story to bring in the audience. That has worked for them on all their recent films ( Zeher, Woh Lamhe, Kalyug, Gangster, etc.). As soon as I auditioned for the film, Mohit Suri, the director saw that I was perfect for the character of Reema Zaidi, and signed me on instantly.

What excited you most about doing Awarapan?

Working with Mohit! I had seen his Zeher, Kalyug and Woh Lamhe and loved his sensible and sensitive style of filmmaking.

Did Mohit live up to your expectations once you started working with him?

Oh yes! Mohit is exceptionally intense, one who is very passionate about his work. His forte is his clarity in terms of his characters for which he works out each and every nuance. He was so clear about the mannerisms and get-up for my character of this innocent-looking girl from Lahore.
Could you elaborate a little more about your part in Awarapan?

I play a Pakistani girl, a victim of human trafficking. She is brought to Bangkok for sale but lands up being confined by a gangster who happens to fall in love with her. She loves someone else, and entices the gangster's aide Shivam, (Emraan Hashmi) with her charms to escape.

How is Emraan as a co-star?

I was very intimidated by him on the first day of the shoot, but he turned out to be such a fun person that soon I was at ease. He also has this habit of playing pranks on everyone. I was at the receiving end of many of Emraan's pranks on the sets of the film!

With Emraan around there is sure to be a kissing sequence in the film…..right?

I can't reveal that! Watch the film to find out! You might just be in for a surprise!
Films made by the Bhatts are always synonymous with very earthy and catchy music.

What is your take on the hit soundtrack of Awarapan?

The music is mind-blowing, to say the least! It is a chart-topper! Every singer on the soundtrack hails from Pakistan, which is a first for a mainstream Bollywood flick! From all the songs my favourite is Mahiya….which has been rendered by the 22-year-old Pakistani singer, Annie
Any other firsts of Awarapan?

Yes, of course! That it is the Bhatts' biggest and most expensive film till date, that it is the first film to shoot a part of its climax in Lahore and it is also the Bhatts' first film to have a theatrical opening overseas!
What are your expectations from Awarapan?

I am keeping my fingers crossed! Each one of us has given a lot of ourselves to the film. We shot in steaming temperatures in Bangkok without complaining. At one time there was a flu epidemic and one by one, every member of the cast and crew including Emraan and I fell sick! But that did not stop any one of us from working non-stop.
What are you working on next?

I am excited about Raju Khan's directorial debut for Vishesh Films, called Showbiz in which I am paired opposite newcomer Tushar Jalhota. He plays a rockstar while I play his manager! And I am expecting a whole lot of offers once Awarapan is released!
It seems you are dating Tushar Jalota?

No comments!

In no way is she a supermodel but she definitely is beautiful. Wishing her all the best in the future.

She's so charming and wellspoken

Serinda Swan Face of Guess

Everyone will be asking Serinda Swan for the time.
Swan has accumulated five or six Guess watches as one of the four winners of the Guess watches Faces to Watch Model Search. The Vancouver native was chosen out of 75,000 global applicants in more than 70 countries (1,350 in Canada) and will star with three others, two males and another female model (there was a tie in both female and male categories) in the holiday ad campaign to be shot next month in Los Angeles.
She is an actor/model and the only Canadian. There is Darina of Russia, Samuele of Italy and Christiaan of Holland.
Guaranteed, Swan is the only Serinda among the contestants, who didn't necessarily have to be professional models.
She was named Serinda after an ancient Tibetan instrument.
"It is a wind instrument like a flute," Swan explains during an interview at the Guess store at Yonge and Dundas. "But I've never tracked one down."
Where her parents by any chance hippies?
"Yes," she laughs. "My dad is a director and my mom was a hippie. My sister is Ariel, named after a character in Shakespeare."
The requisites for the Guess Face were "a natural sexiness, an original look and an element of adventure." Swan has all of the above and an extra pair of pants.
She is gorgeous, only 22 but incredibly well-spoken and self-possessed. She good-naturedly endures having watches taped to her arms. At least the arms will be fuzz free.
"It's a new waxing technique," she quips.
When she heard that she'd beaten out 74,997 applicants, her reaction was, "Ohmigosh, are you serious?"
There is an improbable fairy godmother aspect to her win. Swan never set out to enter the contest. It was serendipitous.
"I am a Guess shopper," she swears. "I was in the store one day and I bought jeans and a T-shirt and this salesperson gave me an application. I'm a shopaholic. I came back the next week and she gave me another one. I didn't think much of it and both of them sat on my counter in the kitchen till the last day. I called my boyfriend (Michael, a real estate agent) and said, `Stick one in an envelope and send it off.'"
After she'd made it to the finals, she wanted to find her benefactor.
"I put up a note in the store `Do you know who this person is?' I want to get her a watch or buy her flowers."
How does Michael feel about Swan getting hot and heavy posing with Mr. Guess Face?
"He is fine with it," she swears. "Even when I do love scenes (in acting), he says, `You come home to me, babe.'"
And he was more than supportive during the contest.
"I was in Switzerland (as one of the 20 finalists attending the Basel World Watch and Jewellery Show for the final component of the judging) when I found out I'd won and he sent out a mass email to my friends. When I got home, there was a massive celebration and he did the boasting for me."
Sigh, what a guy. No way can she dump him now that she is going to be plastered on billboards and featured in ad campaigns worldwide. Besides, he's in real estate. She'll always have a roof over her head.
"He's going to help me buy a house," she admits.
Swan is an actor/model but acting is her real passion. She has been acting since she was 3.
"My mom (Michele Goodger) is an actor," she explains. "Joel Schumacher was casting for Cousins, the Ted Danson movie. He saw me and said, `I want her in my movie.' I did lots of stuff with mom."
Mom appeared in Sliders, X-Files, 21 Jump Street and played the mother on The Black Stallion, thereby making her daughter the envy of the kids at school.
How times have changed. These days the kids would be all over her about Mom acting with Johnny Depp in Jump Street.
"I stopped acting because I was heavily into gymnastics," Swan says. She started modelling when she was 14.
"I got off modelling at 17 to see how my body was developing and to see whether I would have to endure rigorous diets (to model)."
She says she never diets and is a size 26 to 27 in jeans. "I eat healthy; I did gymnastics for 11 years and was super active. I'm getting a puppy on Wednesday and I'll run after the puppy."
She went back to modelling at 19. "I dabbled at it but acting is my passion. My agent found me while I was working in a restaurant a year and a half ago. I was a waitress at Cactus Club in Vancouver and modelling.
``I do commercials, TV and I support myself as an actor: I'm not an actor/waitress/dog walker. I just finished the film Loch Ness."
She also played The Pretty Young Woman (do we smell typecasting?) in an episode of Blood Ties.
Swan didn't go shopping to celebrate her win. She didn't have to make a conscious effort. She is in a constant state of consumption.
"I love shoes. And purses. I have 80 or 90 pairs of jeans," she confesses sheepishly. "I'm really a typical Guess girl: She has the playful style, but is still sexy and edgy. I can do rock chick with high-top Converse but I go for a fun, flirty, sexy look."
She likes vintage. "I shop Holt Renfrew; I like a nice mix of high end and vintage – a $5 shirt with $400 jeans. You just have to be confident."
Being a Guess girl kick-started the careers of Claudia Schiffer, Carrie Otis, Eva Herzigova and Anna Nicole Smith.
Where does she want this to take her?
"I don't know," she says. "My greatest expectation has come true: to represent Guess. I think the girls represent extreme beauty, extreme health – not the real thin bodies. I love the clothes and how they make me look. We have bums and curves; we go in at the waist and out at the hips like a natural woman."
And for something completely different, Paul Marciano, CEO, creative director and designer of Guess, didn't want Swan to drop an ounce, which endeared him to her even more than choosing her as a watch Face.
"After I won, Paul Marciano asked me what size I was and 26, 27 is quite large. He said `27 is great, don't lose weight.' When in this industry are you told not to lose weight? It was a defining moment. I am not dreading the photo shoot in mid June in L.A. I'll just go and be myself and have fun."
Swan has no insecurity about her weight. It's her height, 5 feet 8 inches, that bothers her.
"I have a short, short complex. I am too short for runway. I did runway for Aritzia and there was a 5 foot 11 inch girl who was 13. At 14, I was a beanpole and 5 foot 8 and I didn't grow!"
Her role model is her mom.
"She is one of the strongest women I've met and she is completely selfless. I am planning to go down the road following in her footsteps."
As for fashion influences, Swan is egalitarian.
"I look at fashion magazines and I extract things from them. My favourite fashion designer is Paul Marciano," she says either like a born diplomat or a born Guess girl.
Guess watches range from $125 to $265. Taping them to your arms is optional.

There she is: one of the two female winners of Marciano's worldwide hunt for the face of Guess watches. I'm not surprised at all as his women are usually sultry blonds like Anna Nicole or blue eyed brunettes such as Bree Conden.
