New Movie: The Next James Bond Flick Has Been Announced And It Looks Like There Will Be Some Swirly Action!!

We reported back in June that this brown-skinned banger Naomie Harris may be joining the “Bond Girl” sorority… And we were right! Ah, Mr. Bond, we’ve been waiting for you — and at last 007 is back, several years after his last screen adventure. Producers announced Thursday that filming has begun on “Skyfall,” the delayed 23rd film in the series and Daniel Craig’s third outing as the suave British superspy. Craig, who has brought a hard edge to his portrayal, told reporters that the movie, directed by Sam Mendes and shot in London, Scotland, Turkey and China, would be “Bond with a capital B.” Craig said he was “tremendously excited” to be stepping back into the role for the first time since 2008′s “Quantum of Solace.” Work on the film was postponed, and Bond’s future looked uncertain, when studio MGM filed for bankruptcy in 2010. But MGM’s new management and EON Productions announced earlier this year that the spy would live to fight another day. Craig will be joined by Spanish star Javier Bardem as Bond’s nemisis, while British actors Albert Finney, Ralph Fiennes and Ben Whishaw will play as-yet-undisclosed roles. Judi Dench returns as spy chief M and the film introduces two new Bond girls — English actress Naomie Harris as a field agent named Eve and French performer Berenice Marlohe as “a glamorous, enigmatic character” named Severine. Skyfall is set to be released in the states on Nov. 9, 2012 on the 50th anniversary for the first Bond film “Dr. No”. Wonder will Bond get to chop down the first cakes of color since Halle Berry in 2002′s Die Another Die ?? Source

For The Ladies: History Will Be Made In 2012 When 18 Women Are CEO’s Of Fortune 500 Companies!

Girls! Who run this mutha-?!? It’s been a hundred years and zero women have held the top position at IBM but all that will change when Virginia “Ginny” Rometty takes the reins as CEO of the technology company. Rometty will join a list that includes Meg Whitman, the former eBay CEO, who was named as CEO of Hewlett-Packard in September. The moves will make two women the head of two of the top tech companies. “Ginni’s long-term strategic thinking and client focus are seen in our growth initiatives, from cloud computing and analytics to the commercialization of Watson. She brings to the role of CEO a unique combination of vision, client focus, unrelenting drive, and passion for IBMers and the company’s future. I know the board agrees with me that Ginni is the ideal CEO to lead IBM into its second century,” outgoing CEO Sam Palmisano said in a statement. The 54-year-old strategic thinker will begin her role at the top on Jan. 1. And, on the same day next year, over at Mylan Inc., Heather Bresch will take on her new role of CEO at the pharmaceutical company. The three appointments in the last few weeks will help boost the amount of women CEOs to record numbers. According to USA Today, only 16 women have headed up Fortune 500 companies at the same time. But, pending no shakeups before the New Year, the total number of women leading Fortune 500 companies will rise to 18. Play on playas!!

Congratulations!: SNL’s Kenan Thompson Set To Marry Bikini Banger Girlfriend Christina Evangeline

We’re not even mad you pimp! No joke: Kenan Thompson is getting married. The “Saturday Night Live” star, 33, is engaged to girlfriend Christina Evangeline, his rep confirmed to Usmagazine.com. Thompson launched his career in the ’90s when he starred on Nickelodeon’s sketch comedy show “All That,” followed by his own spinoff show, “Kenan & Kel,” with longtime friend Kel Mitchell. He then joined the cast of “SNL” in 2003, becoming the first member to be born after the show’s 1975 premiere. Following news of the couple’s engagement, Evangeline took to Twitter and gushed about Thompson. “He’s my best friend,” wrote Evangeline, who’s previously appeared in Maxim magazine. “I could only be so lucky.” 2 thumbs up to you sir. It sounds like you’ve got a beautiful woman that is down for your cause. Would you wife her? Source Before these two lovebirds jump the broom, let’s take a moment to admire the body of the bangin’-a$$ bride shall we? (Who are we kidding, we’ll still be admiring her even AFTER they’re married!)

Did Dwayne Wade Go HAM On NBA Commissioner David Stern During NBA Player Negotiations Yesterday?!

DWade is normally smiling, happy, and congenial, what the HELL happened?!? Not even the presence of Dwyane Wade, LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony could move the sides closer to an NBA labor agreement yesterday. And it may have moved them further apart in the cordiality department. Wade shouted at commissioner David Stern during the lowlight of a tempestuous five-hour negotiation that nearly ended the proceedings prematurely. The talks produced no deal and could have created ill feelings stemming from the Wade incident. Stern holds grudges. Players Association executive director Billy Hunter Jr. said he does not expect an agreement by this weekend. A person debriefed on the meeting confirmed Wade got ticked off when Stern, during his spiel, started pointing his finger at Wade. “Don’t point your finger at me,” the Heat superstar screamed at Stern. “I’m not a child.” ESPN reported Wade, James and Anthony threatened to leave the talks early before Hunter talked them into staying another hour. “There are times when it’s contentious,” union president Derek Fisher said, without referring to a specific incident. “Guys are very passionate about their opinions. There are also times you really talk and show the type of professional respect. When you have as much at stake as we all do, you have to expect some ups and downs within the meetings.” Seems to us like there are way more “downs” than “ups”. According to reports the two sides are nowhere near reaching an agreement and if there are hard feelings and yelling then it doesn’t appear that anything productive can be accomplished. Joining Wade, James and Anthony were superstars Chris Paul, Kevin Durant, Paul Pierce and Ray Allen, and they all were vocal. The owners had 10 of the 12 members of their negotiating com mittee, including Knicks owner James Dolan, on hand plus Miami owner Mickey Arison. “It helps the process to have [owners] hear di rectly from their franchise players who mean most to our game,” Fisher said. “We encourage our guys to speak and express their thoughts and ask questions. That’s what they do when they come in the room.” Fisher held a press conference flanked by about 15 of the players, but only he spoke. The players looked less than happy to be there. Anthony will miss today’s powwow as he heads to Winston Salem, N.C., to play in a charity game with Paul. Several players are expected, but it is unknown if Wade will return. We just need these guys (owners AND players!) to get their lives together and reach an agreement so we can have basketball this winter! Source

Guess Which ‘Scarface’ Cast Member Is Speaking Out Against The New Version Of The Gangsta Classic???

Last week we brought you word that Universal Films is re-creating a new ‘Scarface’. Well, apparently someone from the cult classic cast ain’t wit it!! According to TMZ reports : Say hello to a little controversy — because Robert Loggia (that’s R, as in Robert Loggia) says he’s STRONGLY against the “Scarface” update that’s reportedly in the works. In case you haven’t heard, Universal Pictures is rumored to have started production on a new “Scarface” project that’s being described as an “update” from the 1983 classic. According to reports, the new movie is supposed to contain elements from the ’83 version (man becomes drug dealer, kills a bunch of people, etc.) … but it’s not a sequel or a remake. But Loggia — who played drug lord Frank Lopez in the Al Pacino version — tells TMZ, “Scarface is a classic that should rest in peace! Nuff said!” He may be a haza (if you don’t know what this is we know you’ve never seen the flick), but he’s right about this one!

Raven Symone is now slim and trim but clearly that’s not enough to keep your show on the air! It has been announced that ABC Family has decided to cut Raven Symone’s new show “State of Georgia” short. Apparently, the show was not bringing in the numbers the network projected. The last time Raven was a big hit on TV was when she was on the Disney Channel, which is a totally demographic than any channel except Nickeloden? Nevertheless, Raven’s been doing this Hollywood thing for a while and we’re pretty sure we won’t hear about her tanking – Those Cosby and Disney checks are probably still rolling in StronG!
