Penelope Cruz and Marion Cotillard: Pippa Lee Pals

Friday, December 31st, 2010

They’re no strangers to the red carpet, and last night (November 15) Penelope Cruz and Marion Cotillard were spotted attending the New York City premiere of “The Private Lives of Pippa Lee.”

The “Nine” costars both looked lovely as they arrived at the AMC 19th and Broadway Theatre in the Flatiron District of Manhattan, posing for the paparazzi before heading inside.

Speaking of “Nine,” Penelope explained that her time on the movie set was always filled with conversation given the sheer number of actresses around her.

“You have to be a very patient actor because there was no silence (on the set). All of the women, we were talking non-stop. There was always something to talk about (and) we were always together.”

Penelope Cruz: "Broken Embraces" in Madrid

Thursday, December 30th, 2010

Back in her homeland of Spain, Penelope Cruz was spotted at a photo call for her new film “Broken Embraces” in Madrid earlier today (March 13).

The “Vanilla Sky” cutie looked super hot in a form-fitting red dress as she posed with director Pedro Almodovar as well as members of the cast.

Almodovar recently told press that he had to be very specific about what he wanted from Miss Cruz as far as aesthetics. And in the end it all paid off.

He said, “Before beginning the tests for my film I had already decided to avoid the disheveled styles, inspired by Sophia Loren, which suit Penelope so well. After seeing the photo from Vicky Cristina Barcelona, I was even more convinced about my decision.”

“I want to try not to repeat hairstyles that Penelope has worn in other films. I really enjoy reinventing her, discovering the number of characters that reside within our beautiful and versatile leading lady.”

I can’t think of a better way to start a Friday morning than with Penelope Cruz’ crotch. Maybe Penelope Cruz doing calisthenics naked on a trampoline in slow motion, but that’s just being greedy.

One more crotch shot from her upcoming movie “Nine,” and a couple of her latest Mango ads:

Tuesday, December 28th, 2010

Back home after her stint at Fashion Week, Victoria Beckham stepped into her motherly role as she took Cruz to his 4th birthday party dressed in a Wolverine outfit on Saturday (February 21).

With her sons Brooklyn and Romeo also out for the celebration, the former Spice Girl turned up at the Xtreme Martial Arts World Headquarters – which had been hired out by the family for Cruz’s big fete.

Dressed in a stylish blue dress with a pair of sunglasses and blue hair band with a silver button, Victoria and the troops were helped out of a limo by two bodyguards upon arrival.

Obviously basking in the spotlight, Posh’s birthday boy had a big smile on his face – clearly enjoying his birthday activities even though his birthday was officially the day before.

S.S. Monica Cruz

Monday, December 27th, 2010

Meet Monica Cruz, sister to Penelope Cruz. I’d never heard of her before, so after a little searching it seems she’s primarily done Spanish movies and TV shows. Here she is at the photo call for movie production of Jerry Cotton in Berlin, Germany. According to Screen Daily,

Babelsberg’s second German project will be the tongue-in-cheek action comedy Jerry Cotton. It will partner with Munich-based Rat Pack Filmproduktion, B.A. Produktion and Constantin Film Produktion from April 21 this year.

The screenplay by is based on the cult novels from the 1960s centred on FBI agent Jerry Cotton, who was Germany’s answer to James Bond.

According to Rat Pack’s Christian Becker, the screenplay will be ‘a fantastic new interpretation which will be like the way people approached Starsky & Hutch. It won’t be a parody because we take the character of Jerry Cotton very seriously but we see him a bit like Inspector Drebin in The Naked Gun. The film industry as well as the fans and readers are already all very enthusiastic,’ Becker said.

Wow. I didn’t know Starsky and Hutch was “fantastic”. Yikes.

Penelope Cruz’s Lace Bra of the Day

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

I was trying to figure out things I hate because I don’t think I really hate all that much, I am more of the kind of person who just doesn’t give a fuck and the only thing that came to mind that I actually hate was periods, both the punctuation and the vagina disorder. I think that’s only because periods fuck up everyone’s life, both guys who can’t fuck their girls unless they like bloody messes, and girls who get all weird an hormonal and have to shove a tampon in every hour of the day to not toxic shock on us. I just hate the punctuation because it fucks up my flow, because I’m like a rapper who doesn’t rhyme and I write this shit singing to myself….

Here are some Penelope Cruz pics, just because I have a thing for exotic looking Spanish girls, it brings thoughts of being the Bull Fighter who waves to his little Spanish Pregnant Wife before being impaled and killed by a bull only, which isn’t so bad because I probably woulda been a bad father who never paid the bills and a bad husband who cheated on my wife anyway…..If you look close enough, you can see bra….you’ve got that virgin vision that the rest of us lose the second we get pussy. I guess this is one of the cases where you’re better than the general public. Other examples are creative ways to masturbate, the ability to organize really well and a masterful command of the brush you use to brush your mom’s hair…
