I definitely think that forty is the new thirty. It started when Demi Moore came out of hiding for "Charlies Angels: Full Throttle" and she looked better than she ever did before. Many of our favorite stars like Brad Pitt, Angelina, Kate Winslet, Michelle Pfeiffer and others are proving that you can age in Hollywood while retaining your good looks. There are other actors like Vanessa Williams from "Ugly Betty" who admit to using botox, but they still look great and it doesn't affect their appearance.

Other actors and singers have had visible work done and somethings it looks weird. Cher is exempt because she's Cher, but Meg Ryan hasn't been able to move her face in forever, and frankly Madonna scared me a bit in Britney's "For the Record" documentary. Her body is exquisite and youthful, but her face just looks too hard.

Congratulations to M.I.A. I really like her, her music is unique and very good. It annoys me that people gave her flack for performing at the Grammys. Even if I were 9 months pregnant and about to pop I would perform if it were on stage with Jay Z, Kanye West, T.I. and Li'l Wayne. Also, she got named Worst Dressed at the Grammys...ummm it's M.I.A! Like it matters and she was PREGNANT! She is nominated for "Best Original Song" at the Academy Awards for a song in "Slumdog Millionaire" so congrats to her and I hope her baby is happy and healthy.

So, as I posted earlier this week, Perez Hilton will be part of Britney's new tour. He filmed a video which will be used at the beginning of the show. Apparently it was the tour director Jamie King's, who directed Madonna's most recent tours, to use Perez and Britney was all for it. A picture of Perez dressed as Elizabeth I can be seen on Britney's official website: www.britneyspears.com.

Also in Britney news, this week she began filming her video for "If You Seek Amy."
Accoring to In Touch "In the first shot, she’s dressed in a pink tank top and white skirt, with two kids and a husband donning preppy J. Crew attire,” an insider tells In Touch. “Britney hands the paparazzi an apple pie over a white picket fence while the family of actors watch.” The video, directed by Jake Nava, later features a “provocative” Britney in a “black bustier and snakeskin ripped leggings” as she dances in a kitchen scene.

In box office news the remake of "Friday the 13th" looks to debut at number one, with "He's Just Not That Into You", "Taken", "Confessions of a Shopaholic" and "Coraline: rounding out the top five. Frankly I'm not surprised but I thought that "Confessions of a Shopaholic" would have performed better. Final box office figures are not out until Sunday or Monday so we'll see how well it does when all is said and done.

So, in honor of Valentine's Day I watched "A Star Is Born" starring Judy Garland and is one of the best movie musicals ever filmed, "Moulin Rouge!" which only goes to show that with the right material Nicole Kidman is a great actress, and "The Phantom of the Opera" and I am optimistic about the films female lead Emmy Rossum, who was also in "The Day After Tomorrow" and "Poseidon." It was a great way to spend Valentines Day: watching movies in which true love is stifled by death...haha.

So LK, what do you think?
