Tuning in to tinseltown's lighter shade of dark
  • Anna’s Friel-ing The Fizz!

    annafrielI worried that many of my fellow diners would need treating for whiplash when Brit bombshell Anna Friel bounded into Prizzi’s restaurant in the grungey enclave of Beechwood.

    Friel had thrillingly eschewed the flat shoes and nonchalent expression deemed compulsory by the area’s skinny hipsters and was rocking a tiny shimmering mini-dress and three inch heels – very much the Lancashire lady togged up for a night on the town. 

    Why the Sunday best thought I? As Anna chugged away on a cigarette or three… Well, Prizzi’s was a pitstop before A’s winning performance on The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, where she talked candidly about exercising her pelvic floor muscles. Ooh and er, so what was it that loosened those lips (the ones on her face clearly…) Perhaps the clear fizzy drinks she downed? No, no, no… that was surely water, wasn’t it Anna?

  • Anna’s Going Back To Blighty And It Friels So Good!

    anna-frielI overheard this little piece of gossip at the Cannes Film Festival on the weekend, that Anna Friel is heading back to the UK to play Holly Golightly in London’s West End and if all goes well, she might well make the move a permanent one, or so I’m told… Oo er, this could be a wise choice for you Anna my dear!

    2009 got off to a pretty bad start for the Lancashire lass when her show Pushing Daisies, was axed by the ABC Network here in the US after its second season, and now rumor has it she is said to be considering quitting Tinseltown for good… Shock, Horror!
