Tina Fey for Vogue
Tina Few will be gracing the cover of Vogue on March 2010, with photographs by Peruvian photographer Mario Testino. Funniest part? Fey’s Testino accent…
“You look like Stephanie Seeeee-mour.” Her favorite moment: “At one point I was posing for him, and he was talking from behind the camera and he was like, ‘You have to fliiiirt, darleeeng. You have to bee-leeve you are wuuuurthy to be on the cover.’
On the interview she covers normalcy, hand-me downs, mom jeans, power-suits, award season fashion, wardrobe on a movie set… her new film, and much more.

Pushing Daisies Gets the Finger-touch and Comes Back in Comics
Just in time! I just finished re-watching both seasons of Pushing Daisies xD
Sci-Fi Wire sat down with Chi McBride (Emerson Cod) to talk about his new show, and they talked about how Bryan Fuller has shown him a couple ideas for the comics.
The story of the graphic novel makes liberal use of the show’s re-animation concept. “Well, it’s a whole thing about a whole bunch of corpses coming to life,” McBride revealed. “That’s all I know so far, but Bryan was kind enough to share the first few pages. It really looks good.”
…
“It seems a little darker, which is a lot of things that Bryan couldn’t do,” McBride said. “There’s one particular story that I hope he does called ‘The Head.’ I wished he could’ve done it during the series. It was awesome.”
So obviously, I’ll be reading. And are you reading Buffy Season 8?

Happy Holidays~
Hi, everyone~
I doubt there will be any significant posting today.
how did you spend the holiday? Mine was spent over-eating with the family. I also had to work on some photographs to give away… and I also manage to reduce my list of Best Songs of the Decade to 150. However, I don’t like the number 150… so I’m gonna make myself erase 50 songs from there, or resign myself to accept 150 as a good number… whichever comes first.
I also wanted to watch The Princess and the Frog, and since my mother is a fan of Disney I asked her if she wanted to go, but she said there’ll be too many people… which is kinda true, and we DO hate being in the same place as loads of people… and we tend to hate children. Perhaps on Monday.
I’m also still trying to get through Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol — his previous books weren’t that difficult to read, why can’t I finish this one??? I just find it kinda boring.
I’ll also try to watch Invictus, and An Education over the weekend.

Yu Aoi for Period Drama Raiou with Masaki Okada
Julz sent this to my email, and then saw it on Nippon Cinema.
Thank you, Yu. Just what I asked for!
And before I get to see Ike-chan! LOLAlso, gonna quote NC coz it seems more precise. Yu and Masaki Okada have worked together on Honokaa Boy, but Yu was in such a small portion of the first 10 minutes of the film, that it shouldn’ t really count as working together. LOL
But here goes~
Yu Aoi and Masaki Okada are set to star in an upcoming jidaigeki film called Raiou, which is based on a best-selling novel by Mari Ueza inspired by Shakespeare’s classic tale of star-crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet.
…
Okada will play Narimichi, a young man born into the family of the shogunate, and thus bound by the shackles of his own bloodline and the expectations of Edo period society. Aoi will play Yu, a girl who has been living deep in the mountains since being kidnapped at a young age. Under normal circumstances, these two would never cross paths, but a chance encounter in front of a strange tree called “Raiou” sparks an unlikely romance.
The project will be directed by Ryuichi Hiroki who previously worked on Eita’s movie April Bride, which I dunno… gives me some doubts. I didn’t really think much of April Bride, and I do love Eita a lot. However, the idea of Aoi playing a “savage” [insert shameless Savage Yejin plug here] makes it interesting.
