Chapter 185
"If they didn't show up here with your movie poster, I would be even more touched." Josie raised her eyebrows slightly, motioning Leonardo to look at the poster of "The Man in the Iron Mask", "Speaking of which, you Been out of work for a long time—how about your dual personality?"
"It's blown." Leonardo shrugged nonchalantly, "Rick thinks that character is too cruel and not positive enough. I have to be careful in my selection of films now. How about you, how about your Fifth Avenue Christmas party?"
"To be honest, it's boring." Josie said bluntly.
At Christmas, Dina Merlin sealed off Fifth Avenue and held a grand party. She also invited the popular singer Mariah Carey to sing live, and she spent a lot of money in one night.
But for Josie, staying social all night with a bunch of rich kids on the Upper East Side was torture. She thought the party would be more social, but it turned out to be more like a party for the younger generations.
Then there is no point.
Thinking of this, Josie paused, then turned to Leonardo and said, "But I saw Claire Dennis."
"Oh. But why do you look at me like that?" Leonardo asked sharply.
Josie smiled and replied, "My fault, I thought she was one of your ex-girlfriends."
"Ex-girlfriend?" Leonardo just smiled, with a sweet tone, "Oh, J, if you say that, I'll mistake you for jealousy."
Josie was basically immune to his discharge-like smile, "But obviously I'm not, otherwise you wouldn't be able to talk about this topic so frankly."
Leonardo laughed again, and replied: "Well, you're right. Let's just say that she had just broken up and we tried to be together, but I found that I still don't like to start a relationship with my heroine. In a formal relationship, I think there should be some boundaries between work and life."
"That makes you sound like an arsonist," Josie said.
"Hey, you don't have the right to blame me!" Leonardo pretended to be dissatisfied, and asked again: "Why did you mention Claire all of a sudden?"
Josie kept smiling, and replied, "It's nothing. It's just that her mother's jealousy and resentment over my acceptance of the role in "Titanic" was visible to the naked eye, and because of this, there were some innocuous twists and turns."
In fact, all the actors who missed the "Titanic" movie may feel lifelong regrets, which is very common and natural, after all, it is such a successful and classic movie.
But the lady claimed at the party that her daughter declined James Cameron's invitation to go to Yale. "The heroine saved face.
So Josie didn't save face for the other party at the time, and said in surprise, "Really? No wonder you look so remorseful now."
Someone laughed out loud on the spot.
This is just one of the small episodes of that Christmas party. The focus is that Josie made her official debut in Manhattan's high society for the first time. Not only did she meet the famous Kennedys, she also chatted with the current New York real estate tycoon. By the way, she met The future first daughter.
To be honest, it was quite normal before King Wang ran for office. He was a rich man who knew how to let go of his figure. He was quite humorous. He was even a good friend with MJ. But after that, his style of painting was different. Why is it normal.
Back to the topic.
Josie and Leonardo posed for a photo on the red carpet. For fans at the premiere, it was simply the best New Year gift. It fully satisfied their fantasies about the two actors outside the screen. .
"I just said that the scandal between Leo and that African model is fake, and his favorite can only be Josie!"
In the crowd, Sally waved her fist firmly, her cheeks flushed with excitement.
Her companion echoed: "Yes, I can only accept him being with Josie, the others—especially that nigger, are simply insulting our aesthetics!"
"It's not bad for them to be friends..." Another girl whispered, "At least it's good for Josie to stand with that director."
"True, but Leo can't be with other women, you know what I mean?" said Sally. "Jack can only belong to Rose or all of us. Those ridiculous models don't suit him at all."
"But I still want the two of them to be together." Someone said regretfully.
"Who isn't?" Another person interjected, "But if you are a good friend, maybe you can last longer, unlike boyfriend and girlfriend, basically the survival cycle is only a few magazine headlines."
"makes sense……"
After the red carpet event ended, the main creators and guests of "The Perfect Victim" entered the theater one after another. First, they took a break in a large lounge, or had a brief exchange with industry insiders who came to the scene to attend the premiere, and waited. Film screenings.
Eve didn't know when she got close to Josie who was alone, and while nodding with her fingers, she joked, "One, two, three, four, five, look, this really looks like your rumored boyfriend's big bang."
Josie burst out laughing, and asked, "Is the matter settled?"
"I'm in charge, don't worry baby." Eve winked at Josie, and looked over her shoulder, "You know, Fox will inevitably fire it during the promotion period of "Fight Club" You and Ed's cold food, such as writing about your love for drama, resurgence of old love and so on. If you are a little bit more bloody, your love triangle will be fired-Gerald signed a three-film contract with Fox."
Josie was noncommittal, and only said: "So, Fox is very confident in "Fight Club"."
"They think Gerrard will be the next heartthrob," Eve said. "To be precise, they have confidence in Gerrard."
"That's good, "Fight Club" can sell better." Josie thought that if necessary, she didn't mind the hype, but the premise was that the initiative was in her hands.
Eve curled her lips into a smile and shook the champagne in her hand: "Wow, Christian Bale's expression was really wonderful just now, tell me, was it unpleasant when you dumped him?"
Josie smirked at her without answering the question.
"That seems to be it," Eve said to herself, "Oh, I'm really looking forward to your next victim, wrong wrong, next movie."
"What you love and what I want, how can you call it a 'victim'?" Josie raised an eyebrow, "Besides, aren't they happy and unhappy when they are with me?"
Eve responded, "Except that every time someone wants to start a serious relationship with you, it's frustrating to find out that you don't have any of the same thoughts."
"You think I did something wrong?" Josie asked.
"On the contrary, I think you're right." Eve spread her hands, "But you know, men are always so confident, so I personally suggest that you can be more ruthless next time."
"Thanks. It's a good thing you didn't give any advice other than personal." Josie's tone was joking. She only thought about making money recently - the Lord of the Rings was too expensive.
As she spoke, her eyes flickered, and the smile on her lips faded even further.
Eve noticed this, raised her eyebrows, followed Josie's line of sight, and saw Harvey Weinstein of Miramax with a smile on his face, and he was fighting with tonight's leading actor, Russell Crowe. They hugged each other, obviously they had a very good relationship.
"Look, the same-smelling hunting partner." Eve commented casually, "But it's worth it, Harvey helped him get rid of Ridley Scott's project—emmmmm, they're coming this way, you shouldn't Do it directly?"
"Relax, my big publicist, I don't advocate violence." Josie raised her lips, "Speaking of which, has Harvey asked someone to snipe "Saving Private Ryan" recently? What's the matter with DreamWorks?"
Eve curled her lips and replied: "It is true. Although we know that the winners and losers of the awards season usually depend on their own abilities, this bastard has always followed the wind, and this is not the first time he has backstabbed. He used to hold Geffen's thigh, and now that the thigh is not thick enough, and I can't control Eisner and Bronfman, I have other ideas."
"He's really an honest businessman." Josie commented, obviously with a sense of irony, and the next second she changed into a social expression, and looked up at the visitor.
"Hi, Josie!" Judging from the current expression alone, Harvey Weinstein seemed to have never felt Josie's disgust towards him, and even tried to step forward to hug the popular Hollywood actress.
"Hello, Harvey." Josie sideways avoided Harvey Weinstein's movements, and warned the other party very directly, "Sorry, I don't like physical contact with unfamiliar people very much."
Nervous Jew who hates close contact.
This sentence was originally used by Josie's little friend Mark to laugh at himself, but now it seems to be an appropriate description of Josie in the gossip in the city.
"Fine." Harvey Weinstein shrugged nonchalantly, whether it was the eccentricity of the young actress or his aversion to him, everyone knew it well. "A few days ago, I just saw the audition tape that you and Russell made for "LA Confidential". I think you should continue to cooperate again. I just happen to have a romance film project in my hand. Why don't you watch it?"
Hollywood has no secrets.
Before appearing at tonight's premiere, Harvey Weinstein learned about the performance of "The Perfect Victim" at the preview of Sony Columbia, the distributor, through his informant in theaters. The film is listed as one of the dark horse players in the second half of this year's awards season.
However, the specific quality and performance level of the film still needs to be seen with one's own eyes to judge.
"Oh, yes, yes, you can talk to my agent about the script first." Josie casually fooled Harvey Weinstein, then suddenly looked not far away and said, "Excuse me, gentlemen , I think I need to go."
Eve followed immediately.
Looking at their backs, the smile on Harvey Weinstein's face cooled down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Russell Crowe grabbed his shoulder and patted him, and teased in a self-deprecating tone: "It seems that she really doesn't want to talk to us, buddy."
As he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes from the pocket of his suit jacket and handed one to Harvey Weinstein.
The latter took it with a cold face, lit it with Russell Crowe's hand, then raised a smoke ring, and said with a sneer, "Ha, just wait and see."
If you are a person, you will have desires.
And Hollywood stars, especially these glamorous female stars, are always extraordinarily hard to fill.
