Chapter 282
It took about an hour for the black Lincoln Navigator to pull out of the Marmont Manor Hotel on Sunset Boulevard before arriving in Topanga, east of Malibu.
This is a stylish house built in the 70s. It is located in a picturesque woodland surrounded by lush and beautiful oak trees. to the interior.
But there is no way at the gate.
When the car with the license plate number that all Hollywood paparazzi must be familiar with appeared near the house, the paparazzi who were waiting at Josh Jones’ new home immediately cheered up and aimed their expensive lenses at the black sticker on the car. The car windows with anti-spy film are just waiting to capture the moment when the hottest female star in Hollywood gets off the car.
However, it was not Josie herself, or her bodyguards and assistants who got out of the car first.
I saw the "walking David" who caused crazy discussions on the gossip forum last night to get out of the car from the left side first, then detoured to the right side to open the door for the lady in the car, and thoughtfully put his hand on the door to prevent those who got out of the car People bump heads.
At this time, the well-dressed Josie took Jim's hand and got out of the car.
Even before the heels of her high-heeled shoes touched the ground, the spotlights around her were already flashing non-stop. The faces of these professional paparazzi almost all had an expression of "Oh my god! Big news!", and they reacted quickly The one had already pulled out the recording pen and squeezed towards Josie.
"Josie, are you and Jim dating?"
"Did you have a good night together last night?"
"Tell me about your new movie. It's a romantic movie, right?"
"You guys came to Josh's moving party, will it be awkward to meet new and old lovers?"
"I heard that the reputation of "Fight Club" has collapsed and the box office is not satisfactory. Who do you think is responsible for the high investment of this movie?"
Josie stopped when she heard the last question, hooked down the small oval sunglasses on her face with her fingers, and raised her eyebrows to answer: "A total collapse? I don't think so, at least some of them with good taste Film critics and the vast majority of moviegoers in the United States think this is a pretty good movie. As for the unsatisfactory box office, if it is still called unsatisfactory if the North American box office exceeds 5000 million in three weeks after its release, your standard is really a bit Strict."
As soon as the words fell, the bodyguards following her had already used their bodies to clear the way, preventing those paparazzi who wanted news from continuing to entangle.
Before leaving their sight, Josie frowned and asked, "Why are there so many paparazzi?"
"Two teams followed from the entrance of our hotel, and the rest were originally here." Jason replied, "It is conceivable that Mr. Jones invited many friends tonight."
Josie frowned, then looked at Jim who had been silent all the time, and asked, "What's the matter, you don't look very happy?"
Jim shook his head and said, "Sorry, I still can't get used to this... being surrounded by a group of people."
Although he had experienced the Hollywood-style attention last night, a serious reporter is not as crazy as a paparazzi, he just needs to pose and stand there, imagining that he is facing pumpkins and potatoes.
"Under normal circumstances, Hollywood is not so exaggerated every day." Josie took Jim's hand and gently hooked his little finger, "Smile, you look so melancholy."
Jim couldn't help lowering his head and laughing, and took her hand back.
It has to be said that Josie is the kind of person who is very perceptive and can make use of small details-if she wants to.
"Oh my god! Great news!"
In line with the reaction of the paparazzi squatting at the door of the house, Lindsay Lohan, one of the guests at the party, ran to the bar on short legs, and frantically winked at Josh Jones, who suddenly had an inspiration.
Josh had no choice but to put down the guitar in his hand, and asked angrily, "Lindsay, why are you crazy?"
Lindsay glanced at the man sympathetically, and shook her head: "I don't think you know yet, my baby Sissy brought her handsome guy from last night here, they behaved intimately, and they were clearly in love."
Josh's face was not as bad as Lindsay expected, but he sneered and said, "Oh, that's good. Anyway, there are still 15 minutes to eight o'clock, you can pack up and go home."
"Go home at eight o'clock? Are you kidding me, Josh Jones!" Lindsay yelled, "I don't want to! I managed to sneak out!"
Josh didn't bother to talk to her, and called his driver directly, but Samantha Ronson, who was on the side, saw Lindsay's madness on the spot, and couldn't bear to make a sound: "Eight o'clock is too early Come on. Let Lindsay play a little longer, and I can drive her back and make sure I'm home by nine."
"Nine o'clock—" Lindsay was still grimacing.
To be honest, her peers at school have learned to party all night long ago, and Josh Jones, the bastard, always treats her as a "child" who needs protection.
Samantha touched Lindsay's little head and asked, "Big reporter, you've already got first-hand news. Where's the protagonist of our news?"
"Outside by the pool." Lindsay replied obediently, but blinked. "As soon as she walked in, she ran into Nelly confronting that stripper."
"Did we invite Nelly?" Samantha looked at Josh.
She did know that the stripper that Lindsay was referring to was Channing Tatum. Although Josh did not star in "Dancing Out of My Life", he made a cameo appearance in the movie, and even had a scene with Channing.
Although Channing's previous career was not very glorious in the eyes of many people, Josh thought it was no big deal, and Channing's dance was still good.
So the relationship between the two of them in private is okay.
"Of course we didn't." Josh frowned and glared at Lindsay, "Don't call Channing that, he has his own name."
He didn't expect Lindsay to answer, threw the guitar and walked out.
Nelly, a rapper who has not officially released an album, is also one of the people in the circle who listen to David Geffen. Given the series of conflicts that broke out between Josie and Geffen, Josh doesn't think they ran into each other. Just having fun chatting.
Sure enough, the poolside of the villa.
Josie was instructing her bodyguards to throw a drunk and the small group around him out of the party, ignoring the other party's clamor of discrimination and beating.
Seeing Josh coming in a hurry, he said, "I don't think you mind if I do it for you?"
"Actually, I'm planning to have someone do this." Josh said, looking at Josie's male companion, "This is—?"
"This is Jim." Josie intertwined fingers with Jim, and replied unabashedly, "We are dating."
"Wow, look what I heard—" Mark Ronson, who came a step late, put his arm on one of Josh's shoulders with his signature tone.
"Sissy!" This is Lindsay who is full of energy. She took a critical look at Jim beside Josie, and found that this guy is really not inferior to Leonardo... so angry!
Samantha, Rashida and Brittany also came and gathered in the party area by the pool.
Josie smiled slightly and said, "Good evening, my friends. As you can see, I would like to introduce to you the talented Mr. Stewart beside me."
"You can just call me Jim." Jim was a little restrained, but he still took the initiative to speak.
Josie's little friends exchanged glances and also reported their names one after another. Only Lindsay kept staring at Jim's face, muttering something.
Samantha quickly dragged her away.
And Mark raised his eyebrows, winked at Rashida, who cooperated tacitly, and said to Josie: "Since this is the first time you are introducing someone to us, I think we need to have a man-to-man relationship with Jim." Conversation between - all right, Jim?"
Of course Jim wouldn't say no.
He only squeezed Josie's palm quietly, and gave her a look that he could handle.
Josie then let go.
Well, this feeling is quite novel, she seems to be very fond of him - is it the role of the face?
The girls all returned to the house, and Josie still looked out of the French windows from time to time, really wondering what they were talking about.
Samantha handed Josie an unopened bottle of soda and said, "Don't be nervous, sweetheart, they're just talking to him. After all, you have to know that he's much older than you, and he's not familiar with anyone." Foreigners, the combination of these two points is very worrying.”
"Yes, although we all trust your judgment." Rashida added, "but there are some things that men are more considerate than us women."
Josie opened the bottle of soda, a little helpless: "I don't know whether to say that you treat me like a baby, or that we shouldn't have gender stereotypes."
"I think the key is that this is the first time Josie has brought people into her small circle." Brittany looked at Josie, and then at the others.
"So, is this really the first time?" said Josh's new girlfriend, Rachael Leigh Cook, "Wow, this is amazing. I mean, your ex-boyfriend ..."
She is a petite girl with dark hair, big eyes and a small round face. This year, she became popular this year because of the movie "She Is All of Me", and she is also the goddess of the first generation of teenagers in the United States.
Well, this is indeed a bit unexpected.
"Rachel." Samantha said suddenly, and said jokingly: "Don't embarrass Josie, she and my brother are a little nervous, don't measure it by the way of ordinary people's communication."
Josie smiled faintly, ignored Rachael Leigh Cook, but said to Samantha: "I don't admit that, at least I won't worry about whether the other person's mind is charming enough when dating."
"Ah, you're right." Rashida came over to give Josie a high-five, the only one present who had dated Mark - and not very pleasantly.
Lindsay lay down on the side of the bar and wailed, "Oh, no, my Jack and Rose—it's all due to the damn Leonardo DiCaprio who is not only useless but also too thoughtful!"
"Lindsay, you should pay attention to your words." Josie tapped Lindsay's forehead with her fingers, and then explained: "Don't be too nervous, girls, I am also an ordinary person, and I also have emotions. This fact should not be difficult Accept it?"
Not difficult to accept?
Wow, it should be hard to accept.
At least many of her loyal male fans are wailing collectively. On the one hand, self-hypnosis is just a friend/girlfriend/cooperation relationship, and on the other hand, they can't help but start to look forward to the so-called "Like Heaven" this so-called love work.
Some other fans are more normal.
They generally believe that Josie should develop a stable and healthy romantic relationship, and it doesn't matter if she is a foreigner, as long as she doesn't get dizzy and go abroad to develop.
And this pair is really eye-catching, isn't it?
The conversation between the men wasn't over yet, and other people at the party started coming over to say hello to Josie.
Paul Walker, who will be cooperating with Josie in "Secret Beauty", is holding a chocolate-skinned hot beauty with a bright smile on his face: "Good evening, Josie, this is my girlfriend Christina Milan, Maybe you've heard JaRule's "BetweenMeAndYou"? She does a really nice backing part to that song."
