Mark Zuckerberg Is Time Magazine’s “Person Of The Year”

Mark Zuckerberg is 26. And he is Time magazine’s Person of the Year! The Facebook creator – a site used by almost 600 million people and which was invented in his college dorm room – made Zuckerberg the youngest billionaire at the ripe old age of 23.

Handed out since 1927, this award is described by  Time to designate the individual who “has done the most to change the news, for better or worse.” Past recipients include Charles Lindbergh, Adolf Hitler, George Bush Sr., George W. Bush and Bill Clinton.
Time selected Zuckerberg “for connecting more than half a billion people and mapping the social relations among them; for creating a new system of exchanging information; and for changing how we all live our lives.”

Time continues: “In less than seven years, Mark Zuckerberg wired together a twelfth of humanity in a single network… It’s a permanent fact of our global social reality. We have entered the Facebook age, and Mark Zuckerberg is the man who brought us here.”

Not even 30 yet, Zuckerberg is already talking about giving away his fortune. And I love his reasons for it. He is one amazing human.  Watch the interview video below to see why!

Shannen Doherty Is A Well-Earned Hollywood BadAss – EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS

If you give life and character to what becomes one iconic role in Hollywood, you can say you have made it in this tough Tinseltown. If you create two such roles, you are a superstar. But if you can claim three characters which resonate with fans for decades to come, then you can convincingly say that are a badass in Hollywood!

Shannen Doherty is that badass! Not only has she accomplished the rarity of making it from a child star to teen actor to adult star, she has also played three popular TV characters: Jenny Wilder on Little House on the Prairie, Brenda Walsh on Beverly Hills 90210, and Prue Halliwell on Charmed.

As if all of those accomplishments were not enough, Shannen is now an accomplished author as well. Her book, Badass: A Hard-Earned Guide to Living Life with Style and (the Right) Attitude deals with the fine line between being a bad girl and being a badass. And who would know better than Shannen Doherty?  Along her rise to fame, Shannen has also been tied to harrowing tabloid headlines of dramatic teenage angst, historic temper tantrums, public meltdowns, DUIs, high profile marriages and messy break-ups.

Throughout all this turmoil, and probably because of it, Shannen has emerged a renewed woman on a mission. In her first book ever, she reveals her own evolution from bad girl to badass, sharing her secrets to happiness and success.

Badass is a straightforward, but exciting journey to finding your inner badass and living life with moxie and style. Shannen shares intimate personal stories, like how both her parents nearly died when she was very young, and how these events have made an impact on her life. She also offers tips for using newfound confidence in relationships, and gives advice on dating, friendships, and handling “frenemies.” And she has lots of fun, creative ideas for living life to the fullest, from entertaining and vacationing to decorating and shopping. Woven throughout her tips and advice for living the badass lifestyle are photos, providing an intimate look at Hollywood’s favorite female badass.
The actress has told MailOnline that the book has been a long time in the making and that friends and family have always turned to her for advice on personal issues.

“My friends were constantly calling me for advice,” Shannen told MailOnline. “One was starting a business, a few had boyfriend issues. So I was ‘that girl.'”

“People would say, ‘Always listen to Shannen’s advice.’ But I didn’t always take my own advice. I do now.”

What are some of the tips Shannen gives in her book? Well, in short, she says don’t be a “bad girl” a “bitch,” a “shrinking violet” or a “people-pleaser”— be a “badass!” I guess you will have to read the book to know what that really means!


Here are some photos of Shannen from her book signing at Barnes & Noble at The Grove in Los Angeles, December 14, 2010.

VIDEO CLIP OF THE DAY.

Usher is gonna think twice next time he wants to pull a fan on stage and grind with her on a couch after what happened on stage last night.

Usher was serenading a fan during an OMG Tour stop in Madison Square Garden when the lady tried to re-position herself on the couch but instead kicked the crap out of Usher’s nose with her stilettos! Shoes, 1; Usher 0.
The singer wasn’t injured and even made a joke about it afterwards, but the whole thing was hilarious. And of course in this day of technology and self-made paparazzi, there was someone in the audience who recorded the whole incident.  Watch it below for yourself!

Natalie Portman Discusses Lesbian Scene With Mila Kunis

Posted on by
Reply

I have not yet seen the movie, but have, probably like you, heard all of the buzz about the stellar performance given by Natalie Portman of the tormented ballerina Nina Sayers in Black Swan.

Even if you have not yet seen Swan, you have most likely also heard about Natalie’s same sex scene in the movie and the intimate moments shared with co-star Mila Kunis.

Natalie graces the cover of Vogue in its latest issue and tells the mag: “Lesbian scenes, sex scenes, they’re all over the place! But because it’s me, people are shocked. I see the value of a good girl persona-it’s so easy to subvert it!”

In the same issue, Portman also discusses being a woman in Hollywood and her diet, among many other things:

On dieting:
“I swear, I eat. I ate a bagel an hour ago. I consume my own weight in hummus every day. I cook a lot, and I even do vegan baking.”

On women as objects: 

“There’s a difference between being in a bra and underpants as an object on a men’s magazine cover and playing yourself-a woman with desires and needs who loves and laughs with her friends-in a bra and underpants. You become an object if you simply put it out there. Most movies are made by men, it’s totally natural that they’re going to present their worldview, so we’re trying to find more women who are writers and directors who are expressing their worldview.”

On reading critics of her work: 

“I try not to read reviews or anything about me. It’s totally natural to be interested, but it’s completely damaging. Over the almost 20 years I’ve been working, I’ve been up, I’ve been down, I’ve been in, I’ve been out. Just getting to do the work is the privilege. I always feel like I have no idea what I’m doing. The one thing you have control over is having a great experience by doing your work fully.”

Reese Witherspoon, Jack Nicholson, Owen Wilson & Paul Rudd: Premiere, Review and Trailer Of “How Do You Know”

Reese Witherspoon and me 🙂  At the premiere of “How Do You Know”

WESTWOOD, Calif. December 13, 2010 – Reese Witherspoon, Jack Nicholson, Owen Wilson and Paul Rudd were all at the premiere of their upcoming romantic comedy, How Do You Know, held at the Regency Village Theater. Reese was stunningly-dressed in a Zac Posen Spring 2011 RTW strapless bustier dress and could not have looked prettier.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“We’re all just one small adjustment away from making our lives work,” says one of Reese Witherspoon’s two love interests in her upcoming movie, How Do You Know. And by “small adjustment” he meant the addition of Reese’s love into his own life – a life which had taken a bit of a wrong turn without any fault of his own but which he knew could be course-corrected with the love of the right woman by his side.

How Do You Know takes a contemporary and romantic look at the question, “How do you know [when you are in love?]” In this movie, Reese has two equally-cute but horribly messed up men vying for her love – played by Owen Wilson and Paul Rudd. Each man would bring unique charm, potential, challenges, compatibility and inherent flaws to the table – and it’s up to Reese to realize which one of the two men is the love of her life. 

I won’t tell you whom she picks or if she picks either at all, but I will tell you to go see this incredibly heart-warming movie. I don’t know why movie critics make a habit of slamming one romantic comedy after another, like they have done with this movie. I mean, seriously, we don’t go into such films looking for Oscar-worthy moments. Those of us who love light-hearted romances, simply want a break from our every day lives and in that respect, this movie delivers enough charm, laughs and touching moments to qualify as a a great chick flick.

Written and directed by James L. Brooks (Broadcast News, As Good As It Gets and Terms of Endearment,) How Do You Know hits the theaters December 17, 2010.
