the strap of her dress became undone, leaving her breast almost exposed. Fortunately, the actress could react in time and managed to hold the neckline. The protagonist of “Gray’s Anatomy” showed his good humour and took the mishap with a smile. This was supposed to be her night. Heigl had come to the gala very happy,
full of fun and gladly posed for photographs, holding her dress like a princess. She also boasted new ‘look’, leaving behind her long blond hair and displaying her new colour.

Never has a love story captivated so many
spectators as that staged 20 years ago about Vivian and Edward in ‘Pretty Woman’. But where does the success of this movie lie? Why do we still remain excited about this film of Richard Gere taking a prostitute from the streets and turning her into a beautiful Julia Roberts? The film, directed by Garry Marshall, opened on 23 March 1990 in the United
States. It was a huge box office success ($ 178 million raised and if we add international revenues this amounts to $ 463 million when the initial budget was only $14) It lifted Richard Gere out of a slump in his career and launched to fame a very young Julia Roberts, who went on to become ‘America’s sweetheart’.
Although the new Hollywood star won the Golden Globe she had to settle for an Oscar nomination as best actress for playing a prostitute who is saved and made socially acceptable by a Prince Charming, played by a man rich. The truth is that “Pretty Woman’, besides having brought millions and millions of viewers to the cinema, has become a unexplained television phenomenon. It holds the record of being the most popular film in the last 15 years, after greatly exceed nine million viewers on the second of January 1994, according to a report by ABC published on the ninth of April, 2008.
The success of this romantic comedy revived the hope of making a sequel, something that Julia Roberts has always ruled out. “Who would want to see a 40 year old prostitute?”said the actress last February during the premiere of her latest film, “Stories of St. Valentine,” which is also directed by Garry Marshall.
he Royal Palace hosted a gala on Monday 19 October, aimed at paying homage to the Lebanese President Sleiman, and his wife,
Wafaa. Their Majesties the King and the Princes of Asturias were formally attired for the event.
And once again, Letizia grabbed all the flashes from the assembled photographers. She wore a red sleeveless dress with a fitted lace body with a long pleated skirt, again was spectacular. She also wore a stunning Prussian tiara with her wavy hair down.
Queen Sofia also earned a 10 in style. She wore a long dress and white brocade robe of the same colour. The Queen also wore a beautiful tiara, set with flower-shaped, long pearl earrings and a simple gold necklace. On Monday, the King’s agenda was very crowded before officially receiving President Sleiman and his wife at the Palace of El Pardo, he met with the defence minister, Carme Chacon, president of the Community of Madrid, Esperanza Aguirre, and Mayor of Madrid, Alberto Ruiz Gallardon, among others. During the ceremony national anthems were performed and both heads of state reviewed the Company Honours of the Royal Guard, who later marched to their Majesties and the President of the Republic of Lebanon and his wife. At noon, Their Majesties the King and Queen, accompanied by Their Royal Highnesses Prince
and Princess of Asturias, hosted a lunch at the Palacio de la Zarzuela for President and Mrs. Sleiman, who also were accompanied by the daughter of Lebanese president , and her husband.

enelope Cruz and Javier Bardem decided to relax after all the bustle of the Academy Awards, at Staples Centre in Los Angeles, where they attended the game between Los Angeles Lakers and
Minnesota Timberwolves.
Like any couple in love, Penelope and Bardem were very lovey-dovey and did not hesitate to demonstrate their affection for each other. Bardem wore comfortable jeans, a pink T-shirt, a black cap and stubble. Penelope also opted for jeans and a black long sleeve shirt, but most striking were the huge glasses.
Miguel Bosé not ready for fatherhood
The singer admits he loves the paternity but says that his profession requires too much time Miguel Bosé is one of the most wanted men in our country. However, in his great 53 years, the singer is not ready to commit or have children. Bose confessed recently in Mexico City, where he is touring his latest album, “Cardio,” that the only thing that has been “cowardly” in life is deciding to be a father, because it requires a real commitment and responsibility toward children.
“My profession is very difficult and extremely demanding of my time”, he acknowledged, “and if you decide to become a parent, you should take one of those famous sabbaticals to enjoy it,” said the artist in a press conference.
The artist, considered a true sex symbol since he began in the music world, does believe that fatherhood is “the most beautiful stage” for any man. But still he has doubts: “I do not know if I’m ready, if I decide on a Thursday, the day after I repent.

atherine Heigl went to collect her Best Actress award at the ShoWest Awards gala held last Saturday in Las Vegas. When she was on stage,
proves that she qualifies in this month’s FHM Spain. Cristina presents on programs dedicated to games from EA Sports (TV channel online EATV.es). Hot babes and Madden on a TV show? No wonder all our shows are imported from other countries. They’re geniuses everywhere else. Suitors not short in supply and it seems that she already has opted for one: Miguel Torres, who plays for Getafe. The rumours were in the air for a while but Cuore magazine has published pictures of the new couple, in the street. Those involved did not confirm nor deny, but judging by the photos, this is the beginning of a love story.
It appears that players prefer reporters
