It’s nice to see that Mr. Pierce Brosnan continues to be a man of conviction. Mr. Brosnan recently spoke up about a proposed refinery that would be 14 miles from Malibu. This is not the first time Mr. Brosnan has spoken about a cause. Like Mr. Martin Sheen, he has spoken about several issues that are important to him. He has been a vocal supporter of breast cancer awareness and First Star – which works to change the U.S. child welfare system. I always enjoy hearing when entertainers and celebrities speak out about issues they believe in. Mr. Brosnan not only spoke up but also garnered the support of several other entertainers. You have to love the style and conviction he has.
Looking to London it seems that the ban on extremely thin models is gaining ground. It seems that this move to showcase slightly more realistic and healthy models is picking up momentum. I’m looking forward to when it is enforced in the U.S. I find it a shame and questionable that the bans have all started after Fashion week in New York. Considering how small the fashion industry is, I would think that the U.S. show knew that the bans were forthcoming. And the statement being made would have been all the more impacting if they had started a similar ban. Well maybe we can hope that they will enact some action here soon. My original thoughts on the ban can be seen here, Women fight crime, models gain weight and Dennis Leary.
And in an odd bit of news it seems that the latest Thong Girl film got a great bit of scenery from Gallatin Tennessee Mayor’s office. Actually it was the Mayor’s office. Now I’m not sure exactly what kind of film it was, but I have to think that someone should have caught on to what they had agreed to. The title, which wasn’t provided when permission for the shoot was asked for, is a dead give-away. And I’d imagine someone from the Mayor’s office was on the set, but it is funny that they got away with this.
Of course the plot of the story, which may not be important if it’s the style of film I imagine it could be, is not the best in the world. It seems the thong and cape clad super-heroine is trying to thwart a villain that is turning Nashville stars into rappers. Not exactly an evil act, unless you are like the writer and find country music to be superior to rap music. Even for a low-budget film, the implication leaves me unsettled. I can’t say why exactly, I haven’t seen the film or any of its predecessors. Still it just seems a bit rude. But what do you expect from a film like this may be?
This is what I think, what do you think?
