Celebrity Photos at Fame Fad: madonna

Celebrity spotting of a different kind over in the US featuring stars arriving or actually at TV shows and interviews in New York and LA yesterday 30 January. Featuring stars doing what is called in the trade “the promo run” promoting their latest film, music single or album or book or TV show or anything else that they are involved with at that time that needs promoting.

Also a good chance to catch up with what they are actually doing right now and hear it straight from the star concerned so that you know it’s actually FACT. Madonna has a new single and album on it’s way soon not to mention her recent film release of W.E, hence her appearance on one of these TV chat shows.

Photos are from The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Extra and The Letterman Show. Celebrity names include Madonna, Jay Leno, Chris Colfer, Joe Perry, Lisa Kudrow, Jennifer Lopez, James McCartney and Rob Schneider.

Madonna

Madonna at the Venice Film Festival? Was she performing? Errr no, she’s got a film, directed by her and it had it’s premiere last night at The 68th Venice Film Festival, where better, now there’s a headline! A directorial debut from Madonna has got to without a doubt create a bit of a stir and get those critics coming out with noses in the air in a feverish manner. Madonna was at the premiere of her event last night and it has to be said she was looking something else. At first glance at the premiere pics thought it was Kate Hudson had to look ten times. “Stone Me” were the words muttered at this end! Abbie Cornish and Andrea Riseborough were also present who star in this film along with the male stars in the film including Oscar Isaac and James D’Arcy. The Weinstein Company have picked up the US distribution rights to this film, that has got to say something?

The W.E Premiere Venice Film Festival Photos

You could say this was a big premiere in more ways than one. The film was initally shot in London then Stateside and also in France. So what’s ‘W.E’ all about?

The Plot:

W.E tells the story of two fragile but determined women – Wally Winthrop (Abbie Cornish) and Wallis Simpson – separated by more than six decades. In 1998, lonely New Yorker Winthrop is obsessed with what she perceives as the ultimate love story: King Edward VIII’s abdication of the British throne for the woman he loved, American divorcee Wallis Simpson. But Winthrop’s research, including several visits to the Sotheby’s auction of the Windsor Estate, reveals that the couple’s life together was not as perfect as she thought. Weaving back and forth in time, the film intertwines Wally’s journey of discovery in New York with the story of Wallis (Andrea Riseborough) and Edward (James D’Arcy), from the glamorous early days of their romance to the slow unraveling of their lives in the decades that followed.

W.E Trailer
Some Reviews from the Venice Festival

Mixed reviews on this film. Have gone for the positive ones a couple listed below.

Daily Mail’s Baz Bamigboye gave the film a mostly positive review, saying that “A lot of people will loathe it, simply because it’s been made by Madonna. But if people were to watch it with no knowledge of who directed, they would be pleasantly surprised. They might even find much of it enjoyable.”

Music critic Pete Buchanam from the Chicago Examiner said that “Madonna’s ‘W.E.’ is one of the most pleasant film surprises in years”.

Would like to wish Madonna all the best with this film as I know she has put a lot of work into this, directing as she has found out is very hard work but immensely rewarding when you see the end result.. Film looks set for release and premiere at the back end of this year around December 2011. Box office numbers on this is anybodies guess but will be interesting to say the least?
