Alex O’Loughlin is such a humble man. That is one of the reasons why I like him so much. He isn’t one to let fame get the better of him. In this interview from Entertainment Tonight he talks about how he is a normal guy, how Moonlight gave him a lot of gray hair, and how he is on the organ transplant list.
I know I have mentioned this before but I’ve been on the bone marrow and organ transplant list since I was 20. I know back then it wasn’t something that was well known yet. But thanks to Alex we all can know about it better. Be sure to watch Alex on Three Rivers on CBS tonight.
Johnny Depp arrived at the premiere of Public Enemies last night at the Los Angeles Film Festival last night. I love seeing him around again. And how coordinated is he that his shirt, glasses and necklace match? Very nice!
Everyone is talking about the story of how generous Johnny was in Chicago at the Gibson’s steakhouse. The waiter, Mohammed Sekhani, said that Johnny gave him a tip of $4000.
Sekhani said, “Johnny and his party arrived just after 11:30pm at the restaurant and requested a private room. He had visited our restaurant several times before while he was filming Public Enemies and he promised me that he would return after the premiere.“He also ordered some $500 bottles of Italian wine and he was in good spirits throughout the evening chatting with Mr. Mann and Miss Cotillard. I have worked with a lot of stars like Sean Connery and Robert De Niro but Johnny Depp is my favorite. He is a very soft spoken guy who is charming and sweet – when I wait for him he doesn’t like to too fussed over and is not in any way demanding.â€
I love hearing things like this about celebrities. And especially about Johnny. There is just something about him that you can’t not love.
Unless you live under a rock you have to know that the Twilight DVD comes out tonight at midnight. There are so many release parties going on tonight and no, I’m not going to one. But I do plan on getting my 3-Disc version of Twilight first thing tomorrow morning.
To help promote the release, Kellan Lutz, who plays Emmett Cullen in the movie, called into the Ryan Seacrest show. They talked about many things and among them was Robert Pattinson. Robert gets all the girls, even though I think Kellan is way hotter. Kellan explains to Ryan how Robert does it.
“Rob is the lead, but you’re the better-looking Cullen,” Ryan bravely admitted to Kellan, at the risk of infuriating millions of Robert Pattinson loyalists.
“Ooh, I need to hang out with people like you more often!” exclaimed Kellan, who then (wisely!) proceeded to share some kind words about his celluloid sibling…
“His accent and his crazy hairdo get the girls swooning,” Kellan told Ryan, before pointing out the one quality Pattz possesses that never, ever seems to fail him.
“Rob’s kind of shy, and he does this thing, when he’s really shy, or when someone asks him something, he lowers his head down and the girls love it!”
And as if that wasn’t enough: “He’s such a humble guy,” said Kellan, “and I’m very impressed with him.”
I think that Kellan is right, Robert has stayed so humble throughout this whole thing. Let’s hope he can stay that way and not get a big ego like many stars have.

Leighton Meester always seems like the shy one of the group in Gossip Girl. I like her style and what she stands for…and this is why. She was asked how she was dealing with stardom and this is how she answered…
“It’s changed everything for the better. It’s different, but I’m happy. This is the best life that I could ask for, and it’s more than I thought it could be. I remember looking through magazines or watching movies even just a couple of years ago and being like, ‘I really want to be part of that,’ but not realizing what that was. I didn’t understand it and now this is my life and it’s so funny! I couldn’t be happier.”
