Diana Trailer
A little while back we showed you the first teaser for Diana and, although it did give us a good look at how closely Naomi Watts resembles Princess Diana, we didn’t get to hear her speak and, as many a bad biopic has taught us (Jennifer Love Hewitt as Audrey Hepburn, anyone?), it’s in the mannerism and speech that we see the whether or not the acting is worthy of the iconic figure.
In this new trailer, Watts proves she is indeed worthy and we get more of an idea of the story that will unfold in the eagerly-anticipated film.
The trailer shows that, at its core, the film will be about Diana’s romance with Dr Hasnat Khan (who is played by Lost’s Naveen Andrews) and the struggles met by the couple as the press intrude on their life together. There are a few other iconic moments and memories throughout the trailer including Diana’s red carpet appearance in Sydney in 1996.
Watch the trailer in full below.
Béyonce Surprises Fans
As much as we love to see our favourite stars down under, there are two words that sum up the reason our friends in the States have it so much better when it comes to concerts: Special. Guests.
Last night during Beyonce’s third and final performance of her Mrs Carter Show at Brooklyn’s Barclays Centre, the audience was treated to a surprise… Bey decided to bring out a very famous guest in the form of her husband Jay Z!
As the rapper took the stage with his wife, he performed his track ‘Tom Ford’ from the recently released ‘Magna Carta Holy Grail’ album, and the audience, naturally, went wild.
Earlier in the day, Beyonce shared several photos of herself riding a bike over the Brooklyn Bridge to get to the Barclays Center — not exactly the private car service most stars would demand ¬— and after their moment on stage together, she took to instagram again to share a snap.
Lovelace Premieres
Last night Hollywood’s Egyptian Theatre was awash with stars stepping out to check out the premiere of Amanda Seyfried’s latest film, Lovelace.
On the red carpet, Seyfried, who plays legendary porn star Linda Lovelace in the film, wore a sexy mini dress by Gucci and posed for photos with co-stars Sharon Stone, Chris Noth and Adam Brody.
At the premiere, Seyfried told E! that the many sex scenes in the film didn’t bother her too much. She said, “It’s fine. You don’t think too much about it. It’s a costume really. It’s just a naked body. I mean, in America it’s something but most other places in the world, it’s just a naked body. We all look the same.”
Peter Sarsgaard, who plays Lovelace’s abusive husband in the film, was not in attendance at the premiere but he did make it clear that he, too, wasn’t phased by the risqué sex scenes in the film when he spoke to US GQ recently. He said, “To be honest, that was, like, the least of our worries. It wasn’t that bad. I mean, it was weird at first.”
Lovelace will hit Australian cinemas on September 26
