Charlize Theron Premieres “Hancock” in Hollywood
Charlize Theron Premieres “Hancock” in Hollywood
Her new movie “Hancock” hits theaters tomorrow (Wednesday July 2nd) and last night Charlize Theron was on promotional duty at the big Hollywood premiere.
The “Italian Job” babe was joined by her co-stars Will Smith and Jason Bateman outside of Grauman’s Chinese Theater where they posed for pics and schmoozed with fans and industry peeps.
Unlike other actresses who strive for the spotlight, Theron recently explained her theory of her craft. “I still believe that the job of an actor is to ‘disappear’. It’s about the canvas of the story, and not about thinking, ‘Oh, what do I get to play in this movie?”
She continued, “I don’t think of my work in that compartmentalized way. I’m a lover of good material and I like things that break the whole rule of thumb of what genre is.”

At last night’s Hollywood premiere of “Hancock”, Will Smith made a strong statement about his priorities by bringing his wife and kids along to the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre.
The “I Am Legend” hunk posed proudly with his family, sporting a black and white checked three-piece suit with a white button-up shirt and a black tie. Wife Jada Pinkett-Smith looked gorgeous in a sleeveless floor-length green evening gown. And their three kids Trey, Jaden, and Willow looked thrilled to be there.
In related news, the private school funded by the Pinkett-Smiths is getting all kinds of media attention as of late. Over the weekend, the LA Times published an article about the New Village Academy, discussing everything from its inclusion of Scientology principles in the curriculum to the global education policy.
FOX News reports, “According to the school’s mission statement, students ‘recycle plastic bottles at 10 cents per bottle. Once we have $100 (1,000 bottles) we have enough money to buy a goat for a village in Africa, which can ensure the survival of this village.’”
However, critics of this policy are arguing that rather than goats, rural Africans need schools, and the $100 per goat would be better spent on school supplies as well as shoes, electricity, irrigation, and medical supplies.
Tila Tequila: I Helped Gay Marriage
Tila Tequila: I Helped Gay Marriage
She’s been blasting stereotypes and societal norms ever since her MTV reality show A Shot at Love first hit the airwaves. And now Tila Tequila is taking credit for the State of California’s decision to drop the ban on gay marriage.
At the Hollywood premiere of “The Love Guru” last night at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, Tila told press, “Before it came out, everyone was still a little apprehensive about [same sex relationships]. Then they realized, ‘Wow, everyone is really into this stuff, and it is fine.’ The next thing you know, [gay marriage] is legal.”
As for her own love life, Miss Tequila says she’s hoping to tie the knot someday. “I definitely want to… definitely,” she said. The only question is, will her spouse be a man or a woman?
“Sometimes you feel like you get a little too much of one side, and you feel like the other side is better,” she commented.
Walk Hard! Star Studded Dewey Cox Premiere
Walk Hard! Star Studded Dewey Cox Premiere
Ever since we started seeing the trailer for “Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story” we’ve been counting down the days until its release. And after last night’s Hollywood premiere at the Grauman’s Chinese Theater, it’s only a matter of days.
As could be expected, Will Ferrell was in the house to support his “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby” co-star John C. Reilly (who plays Dewey Cox). He sported a ten gallon hat and an ensemble of western wear.
And proving that he’s leading man material, Dewey Cox himself, Reilly, showed up with some seriously questionable side-lace-up pants, and a mariachi-style black jacket/shirt combo.
Even John Mayer allowed his curiosity to get the best of him, attending the premiere as a solo act. And “Superbad” actor Seth Rogen turned up to see what all the fuss was about.
Something tells us this Dewey Cox think is bigger than anyone could realize. It opens December 21st.
