Singer-actress Jessica Simpson stunned diners in a restaurant when she almost flashed her breasts while trying to retrieve a morsel of food that had fallen down her top.Simpson was eating a meal with friends at a lounge when a morsel of food accidentally flew off her fork and disappeared down her low-cut top, causing her to scream out in surprise, reports contactmusic.com.
Then Simpson dug around to retrieve the food stuff, "ruffling up" her top in such a way that fellow diners in the restaurant had to look away.
"She not only dug down into her top, ruffling through bra and cleavage, she even tried burrowing out from beneath, wriggling and digging diligently for the lost tidbit," a source said.
When she finally gave up the hunt, the 29-year-old star joked: "Oh well... it'll pop up eventually!"
The tension over the censoring of Raajneeti is over. But not without some vital scenes featuring Ranbir Kapoor and Arjun Rampal getting the chopper. Arjun Rampal's love-making scene with Katrina has been reduced drastically.Says the director Prakash Jha regretfully, “It was a very aesthetically shot love making scene. Arjun and Katrina are two very beautiful people.And they made love to the camera. The Tribunal felt it was a bit too explicit for a 'UA' audience. I didn't argue.”
However Katrina who had dropped her normal inhibitions for the sake of her role and character is none too pleased with her labour of love-making going to waste.
But the director can breathe easy now.Prakash Jha's week- long battle with the censor board ended on Tuesday with the Tribunal viewing the film and granting it a 'UA' certificate. Jha had challenged the censorboard's decision earlier last week to grant Raajneeti an 'A' certificate with cuts.
Apparently the censorboard had earlier objected to two sequences one showing the rigging of elections by fitting ballot boxes with specially designed gadgets and the other showing a female politician offering sex in exchange for an election ticket.
Jha wouldn't listen to any talk of cuts with the censorboard.
Says Jha, “An 'A' certificate brings on a specific mind-set on the audience. They think the film has sleazy content. So I preferred to let the film be referred to the Tribunal.”
Jha sees the reduction of the Katrina-Ranbir love-making scene as a blow.
“The love scene was absolutely essential. Unlike other directors I had not shot extra footage so that the censors could take away whatever portion they liked.
I had shot the love-making scene exactly the way it was meant to be. I've had to reduce it by half.”
Says Jha, “It's a disappointment to all of us. I've also had to beep out the F… word uttered by Ranbir and Arjun Rampal in two different places in the plot.
Ex-justice Usha Mehra who headed the Tribunal requested me to do away with the f…k word. It didn't make a difference.”
Incidentally several recent Hindi films were plastered with expletives in Hindi and English.
Also Arjun's volatile character in Raajneeti shouts lurid and graphic expletives Hindi at a police officer. These remain intact while the 'f' word is gone.
For actress Emma Watson, the end of Harry Potter film franchise is like “someone is dying”. The 20-year-old, who launched her screen career as a child playing the character Hermione Granger, said the eight-part film series had been an “emotional” journey.At the National Movie Awards, the cast and producers revealed they were in the last two weeks of shooting the final instalment of the saga. Co-star Daniel Radcliffe, 20, also echoed Watson’s sadness, saying he would be “devastated” when filming ends. However, he said that the films marked his transition to adulthood.
The pair was speaking at the function, where they collected the Special Recognition prize for the series and the Family award for ‘Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince’. “None of us could say that we predicted this kind of love and recognition. It's just incredible,” the Telegraph quoted Watson as saying.
“I'm just so unbelievably proud to have been part of this. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. Just watching the compilation of all the past films was really emotional for me. I feel like someone's dying, I know that sounds like an exaggeration but I really do. I'm not planning to do anything this summer - I'm going to need time to collect myself and get myself back together a bit. So I'll take a bit of a break,” she added.
Speaking on life after Hogwarts, Radcliffe added: “It's going to be bizarre. I'm going to be devastated. It's going to be very, very sad because it's been such an important part of my life. There will never be one scene in any of the Harry Potters
that, when I watch it, won't trigger a series of memories about what that day was about and what I was doing. So everything is so linked to my life and growing up. But at the same time, it will be exciting. It puts a pretty nice punctuation mark on my adolescence. I feel grown-up now.”
John Travolta and Kelly Preston are said to be 'ecstatic' after learning they will welcome two babies into the world, it has emerged. The couple lost son Jett 16 months ago. He was 16.A source close to the pair told America's Star magazine: “They were ecstatic when they thought they were having just one baby. Now that there will be two, they can barely contain their happiness. Kelly's having the time of her life looking at all the cute little outfits and toys online!”
Last week, Travolta, 56, and 47-year-old Preston – who also have a 10-year-old daughter Ella Bleu together – revealed that they were expecting a “new addition” to their brood, reports The Sydney Morning Herald.
Travolta wrote on his official website: “We want to be the first to share this great news with everyone that we are expecting a new addition to our family.” A source revealed: “Both she and John are absolutely over the moon - they knew in their hearts that the time was right for this to happen."
A lot of people have asked me "Crystal...Should I? Shouldn't I?' when it comes to the subject of doing music videos for more exposure as a dancer, model, actress or other artiste. As this is a subject you want some advice about I have decided to blog about it and give my perspective on the situation.

For all you upcoming models and artistes, music videos CAN be a great place for networking, extra practice, getting a feel for being on-set, meeting other artistes and talents, connecting with directors and finding future opportunities.
In my experience music videos are not only fun, but can also be a very very good way to network and get in touch with great artists, models, agencies, directors and people within the industry, often leading onto more projects in the future and call backs from directors for future projects.
Being 'the front person' with the main featured role, as opposed to just an extra, is always better as you will often get a chance to show some acting skills and get the most shots in the video, also being shot alongside the artist shows greater role authority and gives you some added importance in the video.
This does NOT mean that extra/background roles are not good though, as in my experience there are always at least 3 people at each shoot that are worth knowing and connecting with.
Even when chosen to be an extra, often new roles can tend to crop up last minute and if you look the part the director may give you some last minute limelight! So always stand out in your style and appearance because even if you are meant to be an extra, you never know what the director will be looking for on the day.
I do however advise that you be careful about which music videos you choose to do! Remember your image is very important in this industry. So before you start applying for these music videos and accepting roles, you should decide what you want to represent and how you wish to be desired to be perceived as an artist, model, actor/actress or dancer. Know in advance exactly what you want from this process and go ONLY for that, never feel pressured into taking on a role or wearing something you do not want to wear, you will only regret it later on!!
REMEMBER: Once the video is recorded there's no going back, and this footage can follow you!
So don't do anything you may regret later!
BE YOU and be as 'out there' as YOU can handle!
If you can handle it and its you, then by all means go for it, if your unsure of the role you are being asked to play then ask for another one or say no! If you don't ask you don't get!
Remember, the music video is not necessarily going to propell you into fame, it is really just a platform for you to show yourself on worldwide channels like MTV or the more urban channels like AKA and Flava. Be logical about how far these videos can take you and I recommend you to read the book 'Confessions Of a Video Vixen' as she shows the OTHER SIDE of the lives od video girls, and the circles that you can get into when chasing the fame through being a video girl... be very careful what you wish for and never depend on these artists and videos to make you, you have to make yourself, the decision is always ultimately yours to make.
Overall, music videos are great fun! And the more confident you are in yourself, the more confident other people will be in you, so head held high at EVERY casting and always keep your long term vision in mind. Your all fabulous ;o) CC xxx
