Chapter 130
"Who made "The Devil's Advocate" too much to criticize?" Arthur said, but showed a little smile, "But I am very pleased that you decisively bet on Josie Horton instead of continuing to bet on Josie Horton. Wasted energy on Kim Basinger who is completely out of control."
There are too many stars facing out of control in Hollywood, but there are still a few who have been sued in court because of bankruptcy and skipped tickets, which shows that she is obviously not rational and cautious enough, and her mind is not good enough.
And in this circle, good brains are very important-sometimes it is more important than professional ability.
The value of Josie Horton is that this girl is always emotionally stable and has a strong will. She knows exactly what she wants and is good at handling interpersonal relationships. What he did has already aroused the favor of many people in the circle.
First of all, she didn't get to the bottom of the matter of "falling off the railing" during filming.
On the one hand, Geffen's "brutal behavior" towards young people made many people feel disgusted and dissatisfied; on the other hand, as a newcomer who has just entered the circle, Josie's tolerance and silence are exactly the opposite of Geffen, who is a big boss. The despicable shamelessness of the latter is even more brought out.
This not only made Fox and the main creative team of the crew thank God countless times, but also obviously aroused the sympathy of some people, such as the king of pop MJ is one of them.
Before that, David Geffen was MJ’s friend and financial advisor. Under his single-handed control, MJ’s agent was quickly replaced by Sandy Glenn—he was Geffen’s best friend. One of them, also a member of the Hollywood Gay Secret Society - and then his legal team was completely replaced by Geffen's people.
The reason why Geffen did all this was to try to control the king of pop for his own benefit. Obviously, he did succeed - ATV, the music company under the name of MJ, transferred the copyright of the songs of the legendary band The Beatles to Geffen Its MCA.
Fortunately, MJ finally recognized the true face of his former friend David Geffen either indirectly or directly, and quickly replaced the opponent's minions among his team members.
Apart from David Geffen, under the criticism of most of Hollywood, Josie supported James Cameron and "Titanic", and was directly regarded as a friend by this director who is about to step into the altar , which made many filmmakers envious - who wouldn't want to have such a heroine who has always believed in the success of the film and actively attracted investment?
And then there's the PR of the latest awards season.
After learning that he did not appear in this year's Oscar nomination list for best actor, Leonardo DiCaprio was unwilling to continue to endure the plastic-flavored chicken dinner, the special dish of the awards season, and directly stated that he would give up. Not even planning to go to the Oscars when he was invited, one can imagine how resentful this popular star is.
"I don't understand." In the TT group chat, Leonardo was passionately outputting, "Since I was not nominated, why did I go to the Oscars to walk the red carpet-just to show my face? You know, this is not mine style."
"You are a spoiled brat," James Cameron commented.
"But the Oscars really shouldn't ignore Leo. His performance this time is enough to be nominated." Josie said while sending out a screenshot of the magazine cover, which read impressively: Where is Leonardo's trophy?
"Thank you, J." Due to the problem of internet speed, Leonardo waited for a while before the picture was displayed, and he couldn't help adding: "It's fine for everyone else, even a newcomer like Matt Damon It’s a shame to be nominated.”
"I know, you are the best actor in my mind, and the academy has never liked you as handsome, it's normal." Josie comforted.
"..." James Cameron sent out a series of ellipses without a teacher, looking very helpless.
He actually wanted to say that Matt Damon was also handsome, but he had a premonition that if he continued to provoke that brat Leo, the other party would make even more unbelievable moves.
So instead of continuing the topic, he asked Leonardo: "Leo, when are you going back to Los Angeles?"
"Why do I want to go back to Los Angeles?" Leonardo asked back, and said: "I made a reservation at the sushi restaurant in Greenwich Village. Tomorrow night you go to the red carpet, and I will have dinner."
Obviously, James Cameron had a bad premonition experience.
He had to ask Josie for help in private: "Josie, think of a way, at least we have to let him appear on the red carpet, otherwise he will pay a big price for his arrogance this time, such as not getting it for a lifetime Oscar or something."
Before taking over "Titanic", Leonardo's career plan was already very clear. He is not an old-school action star but an orthodox movie star-or a superstar actor, just like Brad Pitt is doing just that - so the Oscars must be an inevitable part of his career.
"I'm already persuading." Josie replied to James Cameron, and then switched the window to Leonardo, "Seriously, Leo, you should understand that if you refuse this time, they will The impression score for you is completely negative."
"Okay, don't worry about me. Marlon Brando also refused to attend, and even found an Indian girl to accept the best actor trophy instead, didn't he?" Leonardo said lightly, not thinking it was a big deal at all.
Now Leonardo has climbed to the peak of his career at a young age and is sought after by fans and media all over the world. He never thought that the future Oscar would be widely regarded as his "obsession".
He was even in the mood to joke, "Of course, if you really can't find a partner on the red carpet, maybe I can make it difficult—"
"Then I really appreciate your reluctance." Josie was angry and funny, so she had no choice but to say to him: "There is no problem in refusing to attend, but you don't have to arrange your dinner so deliberately, after all, you are the media now." Focus."
"Yeah, I see." Leonardo replied without sincerity, and then asked: "When are you going back to New York, sweetheart? I talked to Ernie and I think his script is very good, but you You know, neither of us have been suitable for the same movie in the last few years, so I recommended Toby to audition."
The filming location of "The Perfect Victim" is New York University. Josie will recruit some students to participate in the filming of the film, which greatly appreciates the school.
Workaholic Josie thought for a while and said, "No, I don't have time to go back. The audition should be held in Los Angeles, but they have stuffed a lot of actors on the audition list..."
"I understand." Leonardo said immediately, "You know, I will never make things difficult for you."
January 1998, 3, Los Angeles, USA.
Due to the movie-watching frenzy triggered by "Titanic", this year's Oscars has attracted much attention from the red carpet, and many fanatical movie fans have been waiting in front of the TV early, just for the live broadcast of Josie Horton and Leon Those few seconds with Nado DiCaprio together.
But it is a pity that today's "Rose" is not accompanied by "Jack". Josie Horton walked on the red carpet with Gloria Stewart, who played the old Rose, and gained a lot The countless spotlights on both sides of the red carpet and the crazy screams from the bleachers.
"Oh my god! Josie is so beautiful tonight!"
"I want to know the brand of this dress in one minute, it suits her so charmingly!"
"This look ah ah ah ah I'm dead!"
"Love you love you love you! Ms. J you are the best!"
The square outside the gate was crowded with fans, and Alex, who had spent two nights camping out before taking a seat in the bleachers, was also very excited: "My sweetheart is so beautiful, I would like to kneel down and kiss her skirt! "
"Who wouldn't?" The companions beside him were met on Timi. They got together because they love the same star Josie Horton. There are several TT groups of 500 people in private.
"Dude, speak up, it's not your sweetheart, it's everyone's sweetheart." The brunette girl Fiona who spoke out has some Asian blood, "And what's the skirt, I want to steal the red carpet she walks through go home."
"When I think of Sissy marrying someone else, my heart aches. I really hope that she will always be like this." A short-haired young man muttered quickly, noticing that no one was looking at him, feeling relieved and disappointed at the same time.
He called her "Sissi," Sissi's Sissi, and he thought he was the Emperor of Austria who had dreamed of her.
If possible, he really wanted to keep her in his palace forever, just the two of them.
"Oh my god, she's here!" Fiona screamed loudly, "This is the scene I want to see the most! I swear Edward Norton just peeked at her! Matt Damon also took the initiative to follow She spoke!"
On the red carpet, Matt Damon, who brought his mother to watch the ceremony, found an opportunity, prepared himself to appear in front of Josie, and greeted Josie as casually as possible.
Eve patted Josie on the shoulder, signaling to her that someone was coming to find her.
"Hi, Josie." For some reason, Matt felt more nervous in this moment than he had just walked on the red carpet.
Josie looked back, first with a formulaic smile, took a good look at Matt, and then said in an ordinary tone: "Matt, congratulations on your nomination."
Today she rarely used bright red lipstick, and she also wore a bright red evening dress. On her shoulders were two small straps decorated with rhinestones of the same color, revealing a whole white and flawless back. A little cold.
—Well, this is more attractive.
"Congratulations to you too." Matt couldn't help but took a deep breath. "I've watched both movies. Your performances are wonderful and completely different. You deserve the nomination."
If "Rose" is a strong and bright girl longing for freedom, the role of "Mary" is more inclined to the kind of ordinary woman who gradually goes crazy, and Josie's performance gives her a sad and full of passion *s face.
But no matter which role she is, she has a high degree of completion and is unforgettable.
Josie just smiled but said, "Matt, stop complimenting me, your girlfriend and I are competitors now."
Her tone was half joking and half serious, making it hard to tell what she was really thinking, but the expression on her face was still light, and a polite smile was always on her lips.
Matt was a little guilty for a moment, but also mixed with joy.
—Oh, why is he chuckling?
He opened his mouth hesitantly, as if he wanted to explain something, but he barely restrained himself. He just gave Josie a hasty smile, and was called away by the publicist Miramax arranged for him.
"Are you okay, Matt!" The publicist lowered his voice and quickly said to him in a bad tone: "How many times have I told you that you have a date now, for the sake of your public persona, you'd better not Take the initiative to talk to that girl! As long as the news related to her or Leonardo will be on the front page, do you still want to join their chaotic polygamy?"
Matt's young face still had some smiles from before, and he looked embarrassed and flustered at the moment, he only pursed his lips and didn't speak.
But Miramax's publicist still didn't give up, and continued: "Harvey asked me to keep an eye on you, but I hope you also have some self-knowledge, don't forget who made you famous..."
