Amanda De Cadenet Soon to be Back on the Box with BFF Demi Moore!

Stunning British babe and renowned photographer, Amanda De Cadenet has always had friends in high places, so its not surprising to hear she is about to make the mother of all comebacks with her longtime BFF Demi Moore (you know, that superstar who’s been on the front pages a lot recently) in a new interview series for major U.S. cable network Lifetime TV.
The Conversation will be hosted by De Cadenet with Moore and De Cadenet both executive producing. The series features celebrity interviews that provide a refreshing and modern take on all topics universal to women.
During the eight one hour-long programs, De Cadenet will speak with her interview subjects about a wide variety of topics including sexuality, body image, career, finances, politics, relationships, and human rights. She will sit down with some of the world’s most famous women, I mean seriously, we’re talking MAJOR A-list… There will be a few lesser-known figures too, but Oprah and Barbara Walters might well be sweating a bit when this show hits our telly screens…
Amanda began her career at age of 16 as the host of the U.K. television shows, The Word and The Big Breakfast. After becoming one of England’s best-known personalities, she decided her true place was behind the camera (though personally I don’t agree, she is just too gorgeous!) and she began taking pictures. In 2005, she released her first book of photographs, Rare Birds, and De Cadenet is the youngest woman to ever shoot a Vogue magazine cover.
In a recent interview, De Cadenet said: “The Conversation came from the many questions I was asking the women in my own life, whilst trying to manage being a mother to three kids and wife to my husband, maintain a career and not lose myself in all of it.”
She added: “Every woman should have access to the information and solutions we talk about on this show. The Conversation will open the doors on the universal language of women and allow them to do that.”
I have to say, I am a big fan of Amanda’s and have always thought her a beauty and I reckon when she hits American TV screens (again) with this series, she’ll be another in a very long list of top British personalities taking on Tinseltown, and I love that!
GO MANDY!
Chubby Faced Pics Of Russell ‘Brand Re-Viewed’ on US Telly!

We’ve got a few embarrassing childhood pictures at home and for the majority of people this is were they’ll stay, but unfortunately for Russell Brand, these kind of pictures are always likely to pop up in the middle of a TV interview.
The British comedian was reminded of his “chubby” teenage days while chatting to the panel on The View. It was a vast difference from the smartly dressed Brand that sat on the sofa in a plum colored suit with skinny-leg trousers… Now I understand why he loves wearing skinny-leg trousers. Making up for all them years when he couldn’t fit in them.
“I was a chubby lad’ the 35 year old stated as the image was flashed up on the screens.” He added, “That’s the same nose…it’s basically me. I had a tricky time at school.”…A tricky time deciding how many pies to have for school dinners, by the look of it, a Russell?
Russell was on the show promoting his new film Arthur, in which he stars with Dame Helen Mirren, and it wasn’t long before Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg and the rest of the panel moved the conversation onto married life with Katy Perry. When asked to describe what it’s like kissing his gorgeous wife, Russell replied, “A conduit to paradise…A tunnel to another world. They [her lips] are redemption! Salvation! Glory! Poetry!”
Awww, isn’t love grand. Our Russell always has such a beautiful way with words…Now where can I get a pair of the plum trousers?
Sharon Osbourne to Co-host New US Show!

Sharon Osbourne is following in the footsteps of her fellow America’s Got Talent judge, Piers Morgan, by taking on hosting duties of a major American network television talk show. The former X Factor judge will join five other women to co-host a new CBS daily daytime programme meant to replace the soap opera As The World Turns, which is about to finish a 54-year run.
The matriarch of the Osbourne clan will host alongside Sara Gilbert, who played Darlene on the American comedy series Roseanne; Holly Robinson Peete, most recently seen on Celebrity Apprentice; Marissa Jaret Winokur, Broadway actress; Leah Remini, from The King of Queens, and Julie Chen, host of the American version of Big Brother. The name and launch date of the new show have not yet been announced.
One can’t help but consider this new talk show to be CBS’s copy of rival network ABC’s successful The View, but I’m guessing people would rather watch Shazza over Barbara Walters any day! Score one more for the Brits taking over American telly!
