Chapter 218
This pair of top-notch and most beautiful men and women in Hollywood stared at each other silently, and the subtle atmosphere that no one else could penetrate quietly spread around them, as if they were really filming the famous "Casablanca" in film history, and the soundtrack was still Betty Higgin The song of the same name that Stanley wrote after seeing the movie.
"Ah-choo!" The hero's eyes were full of tears, and the atmosphere was lost in an instant.
"Dorota, can you please turn off your new stereo?" Josie felt quite helpless about the family's occasional humor, and she didn't know how Dorota found the vinyl of "Casablanca" in half a minute. Recording, "Thank you, Keanu, I'd love to continue to appreciate this gift, but it's better now for us to get out of here."
Keanu waved his hands and said nasally, "You don't need to entertain me, I'll be leaving right away."
"The Matrix" starring him will be fully released at the end of this month, so the big star's schedule is very tight, and he will go to a radio interview in the afternoon.
Josie didn't keep her, but watched Keanu ride away on his cool motorcycle. The paparazzi at the door only had time to take pictures of the motorcycle's exhaust. After some consideration, they decided to stay where they were.
And Mexicans who are good at concocting gossip can't help but care about the real love lives of big stars in private.
"By the way, who is Keanu dating recently?" One of the paparazzi asked his partner while drinking coffee.
"Dating? Our mass lover doesn't play the dating game, he only has various 'girlfriends of the week'. It's about who we photograph and who he admits." His partner rests his elbow on the car window side, took a slow puff of a cigarette, "Who remembers that Keanu was a wild party boy a few years ago--Owen Stoff (Keanu's manager) is really good at controlling the public image .”
Life after Leonardo DiCaprio's fame is wild enough, isn't it?But that's all Keanu Reeves left over.
Now his team has established his mysterious person firmly, but how could a descendant of hippies who love to play motorcycles and rock music be a pure and harmless obedient card!
It's just that when you reach your age and your coffee position, you start to learn to keep a low profile and hide yourself in middle age, even though there are still women around you, and the money you earn can't be spent in a few lifetimes.
The paparazzi seemed to understand half-understood, held up the SLR camera to look at the door of Josie's house, and asked, "Then Keanu and Josie?"
"Who knows. But I'm sure Hollywood is fucking genital-connected, and we mortals can't help but fuck it, let alone those beautiful men and women!" his co-star complained casually, "Remember, Newcomers, never take the news in the newspaper seriously, the star team will only let you see the side they want you to see."
After brunch, Josie's house became lively again.
"Is she the one who sells arms at home?" Stacey Dash whispered in Josie's ear, and commented after receiving an affirmative answer: "It smells like scented candles and vegetarianism from the inside out."
Josie was amused by her ups and downs of Rap, and the corners of her lips curled up and she said, "Don't be so mean, Stacey, she's here to join us."
Brittany and Dasha Zhukova's soft conversation came from the kitchen, as well as Rashida Jones' cheerful laughter from time to time. They just made some small biscuits together, and they became good friends smoothly.
Stacey shrugged, and sat down on the armchair diagonally across from Josie, holding a bag of coconut nut crisps.
"Has she read our sorority rules?" she asked.
"We have this thing?" Josie asked casually while reading the script in her hand.
"Of course!" Stacey threw away the snacks in her hand and counted on her fingers: "First, the sister's ex-boyfriend can't sleep; second, honestly evaluate the appearance of the sister; third, backstab the sister's fat ten Pounds; No. 13, don’t mess with the gym trainer; No. [-], stay away from alcoholics and poisonous bugs; No. [-], learn to share occasionally-once in a while.”
Josie turned a page of the script and said without raising her head, "After so much, I only remember the first article, and I almost don't know the word 'rule'."
"Okay, just remember the most important one!" Stacey pursed her lips.
She tore open the crispy package of coconut nuts in her hand, crunched and ate them on the sofa, and felt a little bored after a while, rolling her eyes.
So I said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Qiao Qian nodded, but reminded: "Before touching my statuette, remember to wash your hands with the hand sanitizer on the side, thank you for your cooperation."
"Got it, got it," Stacey said.
Today's party is for the ladies, so Brad Renfro, a non-staff member of the small group, was not present.
The child actor-turned-actor was in contention for the second lead in Ridley Scott's heroic "Gladiator," but lost out to the better Joaquin Phoenix, which made it difficult for Brad. Don't get frustrated.
Fortunately, he soon got an opportunity from the director of "Mr. Sweetheart" Cameron Crowe to play the leading role in his new film "Almost Famous". develop.
From a certain point of view, this is a signal of reconciliation.
At least on the surface, the dispute between Josie and David Geffen seems to have calmed down, but the fact is that the two are holding grudges more than the other, and only one of them withdrawing from the circle can truly end their grievances.
"It's ready to start!"
Holding beautifully decorated biscuits and cupcakes, Brittany and Dasha seemed to be getting along and working together.
"It tastes good." Josie commented after taking a bite of the biscuit.
For the sake of body management, the small snacks they made by themselves use low-fat and low-sugar recipes, and part of the sugar is replaced by stevia.
The tea and coffee served by Rashida also use relatively safe sweeteners, such as agave nectar and brown rice syrup, instead of the usual refined cane sugar.
"When we first went on vacation to the Texas prairie, my mother was frightened by the countless billboards for heavy steaks and the abnormal number of obese people along the way." Dasha sipped the coffee in her hand while talking about the previous experience. Travel News, "And at lunchtime, large plates of fried food and drinks full of fructose syrup, together with oversized jeans from street shops, became our family's nightmare."
Brittany on the side showed a surprised expression, but Stacey sneered and said mercilessly: "Then your whole family may not like your traditional food."
It should have been an embarrassing moment, but Dasha was very calm, replying: "Yes, although they are delicious. But in order to stay in shape, I have learned to avoid most sweets and anything containing fruit. Say no to the glucose syrup stuff.”
"God, that was so hard, how did you do it?" Brittany said before Stacey.
"Think of it as another kind of peanut allergy." Dasha gave Brittney a smile, "But then I gradually discovered that there is no fundamental contradiction between enjoying food and maintaining weight. yourself healthier."
Brittany nodded and said, "My coach suggested that I add some strength training. She thought it would make my body more stretched and powerful."
"I never needed this," muttered Stacey, who was so mad that she could beat her own husband. "Why are we racially gifted?"
"Yeah—that's right!" Rashida laughed and gave Stacy a high five.
"But I don't think racial talent is still effective after the age of 40. Like Oprah." Josie's position is impartial, "Finding an exercise method that suits you doesn't just mean shaping, it's good for your health .So I'm planning to start a club focused on women's power, and the members can be celebrities in and around Beverly Hills. Interested in joining?"
There was hardly any hesitation, none of the four ladies missed this opportunity, and they determined the basic structure and mode of operation of this club in a few words.
So far, they have not thought that this club called "Wonderland Tea Party" will not only become an opportunity for Dasha to fully integrate into the small group, but will also be the top and most special place for women in the Hollywood social circle in the future.
She stayed at home in Los Angeles for a week, during which Josie attended two Mission: Impossible 2 script readings and her agency's celebration party.
After that, Josie flew back to New York to rest for a period of time, preparing to officially continue her studies after the promotional period of "The Trap" ended.
Recently, New York University’s spring break has ended, and Josie missed the midterm exam—of course, the school doesn’t expect students who are striving for Oscars to come back to take the exam—although the absence of classes is very serious, but if there is no accident, as long as Josie Qian is willing to spend a little time in school, so she doesn't need to worry about whether she can graduate.
After all, the charitable foundation under her name donated a new film and television production center to Tisch College, and I just won one of the most important film awards in the world.
The school is now afraid that she will suddenly transfer or drop out, because her major can't learn much in the classroom, and practice is the best teacher.
And Hollywood itself is one of the top film schools in the world.
After choosing the summer and fall courses, Josie was notified by the crew and returned to Los Angeles to film her part in "Mission: Impossible 2".
As a special star, the CIA commander played by Josie has only two opposite scenes with the leading actor Ethan Hunt played by Tom Cruise, all of which were filmed in the studio of Paramount Studios.
At the same time, Tianji Films started the project "Dancing Out of My Life".
In fact, what Josie wanted to do at the beginning was "The Notebook", but what is surprising is that this pure love film, which was supposed to be released five years later, was bought by New Line Films as early as two years ago. With the copyright, even the project is in progress.
"Dancing Out of My Life" is a youth film with the theme of hip-hop culture. The script was brainstormed by Josie, Amy Heckerling and others, and the latter led a complete screenwriting team to come up with it. This is a story about young people from different classes and different dance genres colliding in the process of participating in a dance competition.
The original director, Anne Fletcher, is a talented dancer who is currently working as a choreographer in Hollywood. Josie met her once when she was filming "Titanic".
But this obviously does not mean that Anne Fletcher can be a qualified director now—maybe she can be a few years later, because she has begun to study some directing courses systematically.
After a series of production meetings, Amy Heckling got the chance to direct the tube, and also served as the screenwriter and producer of the film, while Anne Fletcher accepted the invitation of the crew to serve as assistant director and choreographer .
Leave the crew to Amy Heklin, Anne Fletcher, Susan Levy and others, and Josie will leave it alone for the time being.
