Angelina Jolie 'Misplaces' Her Oscar

Angelina Jolie needs to be careful if she wins her second Academy Award this year (09), after misplacing the first statuette she received at the prestigious ceremony.

The actress has been nominated for a Best Actress prize for her performance in Changeling and will go up against Anne Hathaway, Kate Winslet, Melissa Leo and Meryl Streep in the category on the 22 February.

I didn't actually lose it. But nobody knows where it is at the moment.

But if she walks away victorious, she won't be able to pair the gong with the Best Supporting Actress award she won in 1999 for Girl, Interrupted - because she has no clue where that Oscar is.

Jolie handed it to her mother Marcheline Bertrand, who hid it away, but has since died.

She explains, "I didn't actually lose it. But nobody knows where it is at the moment."

Johansson, Knowles have good figures: Hathaway

Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway has raved about Scarlett Johansson and Beyonce Knowles for their curvy figures and praised the pair as good role models for youngsters.

“The Devil Wears Prada” star has recently been lambasted for being too skinny, although the 27-year-old is adamant she is a "normal shape", reported contactmusic.com.

Hathaway has hailed Johansson, Knowles, and fellow actress Reese Witherspoon for projecting healthy body images at a time when super-slim is often seen as an ideal.

"I don't think its just Hollywood that gives out that message. As a society we put out these unrealistic body images to young women, ” Hathaway said.

She added: "I'm a normal shape and Scarlett Johansson is not a skinny girl. Beyonce Knowles looks after herself and has a beautiful body. While, Reese Witherspoon looks great."

Winslet forgets Jolie at Golden Globes

Hollywood actress Kate Winslet got so emotional during her Golden Globes acceptance speech that she failed to remember actress Angelina Jolie's name while acknowledging her fellow nominees. The 33-year-old actress walked way with two Golden Globe gongs for Best Actress for Revolutionary Road and Best Supporting Actress for The Reader.

While accepting the Best actress award Winslet remembered nominees Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep and Kristin Scott Thomas but forgot the Changeling star. "I'm so sorry Anne, Meryl, Kristin - and who's the other one? Angelina. Now forgive me, is this really happening?" the Telegraph quoted her as saying.

She gave a special thanks to her Revolutionary Road co-star Leonardo DiCaprio, who played her on-screen husband, saying: "I have loved you with all my heart." She also thanked her husband, Sam Mendes, for directing Revolutionary Road, which features a sex scene with DiCaprio.

"Thank you for killing us every single day," she told Mendes "I loved every second of working with you," she added.

Golden Globe organisers apologises to Anne Hathaway

Golden Globe organisers have issued an apology for mistakenly stating Anne Hathaway as the winner of the Best Actress category on its website. An asterisk had appeared to the star’s name in the list of nominees - even though the award ceremony was to take place on January 11. According to the statement on the website, the actress, who is nominated for Rachel Getting Married, had been 'randomly marked as a winner' by accident, reports the BBC.

The statement said: "In the process of preparing for Sunday's Golden Globe Awards, a technician working on the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's (HFPA) website made a mistake and a name of a nominee was randomly marked as a winner. The mistake was immediately corrected."

Attorney Jerry Hathaway and his former actress wife Kate made the statement at the New York premiere of their daughter''s latest movie Bride Wars this week.

They revealed all about their 28-year marriage when quizzed by the New York Post''s veteran columnist Cindy Adams.

According to reports, Hathaway blushed when her parent’s indiscretion was revealed to her.

"Oh, please, I'm going to forget they talked about their great sex. I prefer to think they just blinked at one another and I was conceived," Contactmusic quoted her as saying.

Anne Hathaway's Easy New Year

Anne Hathaway's New Year's resolution is to "push the easy button".

The 'Bride Wars' actress has vowed to continue working hard but enjoy herself more in 2009.

She said: "My New Year's resolution is to not slow down but to do things in an easier way, to push the easy button more in my life."

Anne, who split from Italian businessman Raffaello Follieri shortly before he was imprisoned for fraud earlier this year, also plans to ask her loved ones for help when she needs it.

The 26-year-old star added: I feel that so far, I've had a really good life but my approach has been to do everything myself

Anne Hathaway dumped ex-beau over dead Flowers!

Anne Hathaway has revealed that she broke off with her ex boyfriend Raffaello Follieri over a bunch of dead flowers.

The ‘Rachel Getting Married’ beauty said that she realized that he wasn’t the one for her when he insisted to throw out an arrangement of wilting cherry blossom branches.

They lasted a month and were beautiful even as they died, The Sun quoted her as saying of the flowers.

She added: Raffaello always liked things fancier and perfect and told our maid to throw them out. That was when I knew we saw things differently.

And what looks like, Anne would have anyhow dumped the businessman after he was convicted on charges of fraud.

In October, Follieri was sentenced to four-and-a-half years in prison after pleading guilty to 14 counts of fraud, money laundering and conspiracy at Manhattan federal court.

Anne Hathaway Breaks Follieri Silence: "The Rug Was Pulled Out From Under Me"
September 10, 2008 09:48 AM

Actress Anne Hathaway has finally broken her silence over the June arrest of boyfriend Raffaello "Vati-Con" Follieri. She gave an interview to W magazine, on newsstands in LA and New York today. Also today Follieri pled guilty to fraud and money-laundering charges.

Hathaway showed up for the interview looking thin and was on the verge of tears for much of it.

"As soon as I found out about the arrest, I had to get on a plane to Mexico to do a press tour for Get Smart. And then I spent a week in shock at a friend's house. And then I had to go back and do more press, and I haven't stopped since."...

She's been staying at a friend's downtown since moving out of the midtown apartment she shared with Follieri, which was searched by the authorities. "I have to find a place to live," she says numbly. But then her voice catches with emotion and pools form at the corners of her eyes as she struggles to articulate her messy mix of feelings. "It's a situation where the rug was pulled out from under me all of a sudden," she says. "But just as suddenly, my friends threw another rug back under me. One said, 'Go stay at my house.' And Steve Carell [her Get Smart costar] stepped up for me during an interview when someone asked a question [about it]. He said, 'At some point you're going to have to talk about this time in your life. You don't have to do it this week. I'll take care of anything that comes your way.'

"I've been shown such kindness," she continues, wiping at an errant tear. "Not everyone gets that. A lot of people go through tough times alone."

Hathaway has less to say about the beating she's taking in the press. "What's going on is so much bigger than all that," she says. "Though it's crazy that things like that Newsweek article have become small stuff." One eyebrow arches with ironic resignation. She declares that she has no desire to correct any of the misinformation that's padded much of the scandal coverage, though a week later she sends an e-mail addressing a recent Page Six item: "I did not abandon my dog, Esmeralda, and no one had to ask me to go and get her. In fact, the day before that particular news item broke I had arranged to have her picked up and taken to my parents' apartment." (Hathaway's mother, a former stage actress, and her father, a lawyer, also live in Manhattan.) "My dad likes telling the story," the e-mail continues, "in a funny/sad sort of way, that Esmeralda was at [their] house watching herself on Access Hollywood as Nancy O'Dell or someone asked, 'Where in the world is Esmeralda?'"

Anne Hathaway's Ex Dissected: The Follieri Charade
Vanity Fair | September 4, 2008 11:40 AM

Anne Hathaway had broken up with him--sort of--10 days before. Federal prosecutors were circling, interviewing his associates. And now, on the cusp of 30, Raffaello Follieri was, in a sense, back where he'd started when he moved to Manhattan from Italy five years ago: sleeping on spare beds and scrambling for investors to make his business real.

It was a shocking comedown for the charismatic entrepreneur who'd whisked his actress girlfriend around the world on chartered jets and yachts, who'd stayed in the Dorchester hotel in London, the Ritz in Paris, and the Excelsior in Rome when he wasn't home in the Olympic Tower duplex overlooking Saint Patrick's Cathedral. He'd socialized with some of the world's most powerful people. Yet Follieri was unfazed. Ever confident--a confidence man, federal prosecutors would declare when he was dragged into court the next day--Follieri felt he had only two problems on the evening of June 23, 2008: his sinuses, and arranging his 30th-birthday party for that coming Saturday night at the Villa Verde restaurant on Capri.

The spare bed this time was in the hall of his parents' Trump Tower apartment. Follieri loved the instant status that Trump Tower conferred: he'd started out with a penthouse apartment there when he could ill afford it. When he bagged his first investors, he turned the apartment over to his parents, who spoke almost no English. But now he was sharing it with them because the lease had run out on his Olympic Tower duplex and none of his past or prospective investors, or Hathaway, were inclined to pay the $37,000-a-month rent.
