Eliza Dushku in Complex Photoshoot

Celebrity Trends

In anticipation of the premiere of the second season of Dollhouse, Fox has Eliza Dushku out and about doing a photoshoot with Complex, where she dons some bras, swimsuits and other skimpy clothing in a sexy photoshoot for the mag.

One interesting side to the photoshoot was the background, which in most cases are very compelling and outstanding, in this case had the look of being at someone's home; maybe it was the point, but you never know with creative types.

Either way, you can see Dollhouse and Eliza Dushku in the September 25 premiere of the show on Fox.

It didn't hurt to have the beautiful Megan Fox as the centerpiece of the work either.

Those nice, tight mini dresses and slender figure, with her usual wild and outgoing look add to the feeling of the piece. Great job!

$70 Million for Beckham Legs

Celebrity Trends

While it may seem like a lot, the $70 million David Beckham insures his legs from isn't near what one major celebrity insures hers for, which comes in at a huge $1 billion. We'll reveal who she is in a minute.

Some of the interesting body parts insured by celebrities today include smiles, taste buds, breasts, nose, chest hair, voice, sperm, mustache and hands.

Other legs, or rather in this case - feet - insured for a lot are the feet of Michael Flatley, which he insures for $39 million.

while it is understandable in the cases of Beckham and Flatley, many other celebrities do it primarily as marketing stunts to keep their names in the news.

For example, Dolly Parton insures her boobs for $600,000. Now with all the money Dolly has, we know this is just a fun thing she does to draw attention, although just being Dolly and looking at her figure is enough to do that.

So who is the female celebrity that insures her legs for $1 billion? The answer may surprise you: it's Mariah Carey. I wonder what that policy costs?

Celebrity Trends | Actress Bonnie Wright

Celebrity Trends

Now that young actress Bonnie Wright has become the girlfriend of Harry Potter, I'm sure her acting capital has grown, and once she's through with the Potter series, will probably pursue a larger number of film or TV projects.

In Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, playing the part of Ginny Weasley, she emerges as the girlfriend of Harry Potter; instantly gaining international recognition for her role.

While Wright has played some part in each of the Harry Potter films, she mainly had small lines except in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, where she had a more significant role.

Anyway, this recognition should open up doors for Wright to take her in whatever direction she wants to go, and I'm looking forward to see how it all works out for her.

As far as televison, Bonnie Wright has had roles in Stranded and Life in Pictures.

Celebrity Trends | Amazing Keira Knightley

Celebrity Trends

Some people may not know this about Keira Knightley, but her first role in a film was as Sabé in Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace.

Many Star Wars fans will know this answer, and it's the decoy queen that looked so much like the real queen played by Natalie Portman.

While Knightley didn't get a lot of exposure for that role it wasn't going to take long for her, as her breakout film role in 'Bend It Like Beckham' was just around the corner, and Pirates of the Caribbean followed not long after that, and now nothing is stopping the British acting superstar.

One negative aspect of Knightley's relationship with the press is the continuous implication that because she's skinny she's anorexic; which she has denied, but when she was attempted to be connected to the death of a young teenage girl from anorexia, she fought back and won a settlement from the Daily Mail which reported that. From then it's not covered in the way it used to be.

Knightley actually prefers a private life, and while loving acting, really doesn't like the fame connected it to. She has state that if and when she has children, she has no desire to expose her child to the industry.

Calling herself a workaholic, Knightley has said she would like to take some time off so she doesn't start to hate acting, but that doesn't seem to be any time soon on the horizon, as five projects are set to be released in 2010, and that doesn't hint at slowing down any time soon.

For Keira Knightley fans this will be great, but for Keira Knightley, it remains to be seen if she has the discipline to slow down and take a breather to enjoy her life.

Celebrity Trends | Kate Beckinsale - Talented and Gorgeous Brit Actress

Celebrity Trends

Kate Beckinsale has acted in a lot of movies, and done a great job, but it seems see just shines in the vampire genre, and she also looks gorgeous with her dark hair in complexion, which never goes out of style.

As you can see from these sexy hot photos of Kate Beckinsale, she seems to get more beautiful as time goes on, and she keeps herself looking gorgeous.

She is starring in Whiteout, which is scheduled for a September 11 release, and has finished filming Everybody's Fine.

In 2010 Kate Beckinsale will be in 'April 23,' which little is known as of this writing.

This gorgeous Brit will be a hot acting commodity for some time to come, and I'm looking forward to enjoying watching her many projects over the years ahead.

Celebrity Trends | Noureen DeWulf - New Breakout Star

Celebrity Trends

Noureen DeWulf is an up and coming young actress who recently got her big film break starring in 'Ghost of Girlfriend's Past' with Matthew McConaughey.

She is also fortunate in having another film out this summer with Jeremy Piven and Will Ferrell called 'The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard.' She is also currently shooting The Back Up Plan with Jennifer Lopez, scheduled for a January 2010 release.

For some reason she says one of her dreams is to work with Quentin Tarantino, although his success has been spotty at best. Maybe it's a personal thing.

Either way, this young beauty who has roots in India looks like she's ready to explode on the national scene, and has had a great 2009 as a base to do just that.

Hot Kelly Brook

Celebrity Kelly Brook

Voted year after year as one of the most beautiful or sexiest women in the world, there's nothing strange about Kelly Brook herself, as she looks good in just about anything, even the latex swimsuit she almost falls out of above.

She also can look fine in a see-through top like the photo below, where Kelly Brook shows she isn't shy about being sly.

The gorgeous Brook is British-born and has been a model, actress, TV presenter and occasional designer of swimwear.

She has played in a number of film and TV roles, including the girlfriend of Lex Luthor in the first season of Smallville for several episodes.

Brooks first role she starred in was School for Seduction, and also in Survival Island where she met Billy Zane, whom she dated for awhile.

Her next film role will be in Piranha 3-D as Danni.

Celebrity Trends | Orlando Bloom

Celebrity Trends

Orlando Bloom is one of the more well known actors in the world, and has been fortunate enough to star in two of the most popular film series of all time: Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Carribbean.

It may not have been all luck though, as he may just know how to pick the right roles and films to work in.

Bloom got his first breakout role in Lord of the Rings, where he was cast as Legolas the Elf, a key part in the overall story.

Some films Bloom is currently involved in are New York, I Love You, which is waiting to be released; Sympathy for Delicious, which is in post-production; Main Street, also in post-production; and The Cross, which is in pre-production.

Rumors are Orlando Bloom is also in pre-production for The Cross, and also The Red Circle.

At this time it seems his relationship with Miranda Kerr is still on.

I like Orlando Bloom, and think he's a highly underrated actor. While he has had some success as a leading man, I think a breakthrough role there will propel him to the recognition he deserves.

Celebrity Trends | Russell Crowe

Celebrity Trends

Actor Russell Crowe, the sometimes good guy, sometimes bad guy, is continuing to keep extremely busy in his acting career, which as far as America goes, started in 1995 with Virtuosity.

Crowe has of course been in a number of altercations in the entertainment industry and without, which have caused him embarrassment, lots of money, and in the argument with producer Malcolm Gerrie, he may have lost the Oscar award for Best Actor in A Beautiful Mind, as many think he lost respect and votes from the Academy voters over the situation.

He eventually won his first and so far, only Oscar, for Best Actor for his starring role in Gladiator.

Other films he's starred in include L.A. Confidential, The Insider, Proof of Life, Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World, 3:10 to Yuma and American Gangster.

Russell Crowe is currently working on Robin Hood, which is being filmed now, and has four other projects in the works: The Long Green Shore, Bra Boys, Dirt Music and Dolce's Inferno.

This continues the assault of M.C. Hammer and A&E to drive interest in his now show.

Emma Watson Growing Up

Celebrity Trends

It's been a lot of fun watching Emma Watson grow up before our eyes from a little girl to a beautiful young woman. Watson is refreshing because she's a normal person, and prefers to keep it that way in spite of her enormous celebrity, fame and fortune.

Most young celebrity stars aren't able to keep their live in order, and become self-destructive when they become young adults. Watson is having none of that, and has no real desire to necessarily continue on with the acting thing any time soon, once she's through with the Harry Potter series.

Instead, she's focusing her life on college, and is looking to go to an Ivy school in the U.S.

The latest installment of the Harry Potter film series: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince will be released worldwide on July 15. It should be a huge blockbuster.

It will be very interesting to see where Emma Watson is going in her life after the Harry Potter series, as she's got her priorities in order and isn't going to move off of them.

It's amazing to see this young woman have it together in this way, and in position to call her own shots for the rest of her life.

Celebrity Trends | David Beckham

Celebrity Trends

David Beckham is the best known soccer player - or footballer as they call them in Britain - in the world, and the highest paid as well.

But that's only half the story, as his good looks and being so photogenic allows him to be a significant brand advertisers and marketers seek after, and also a force in the male fashion industry.

His image is everywhere, and his name ubiquitous.

His wife, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, is no slouch in her own right, as she has a solid fan base from her music years, and is also kept busy with the couple's three children.

Her connection to the entertainment industry offers David and the couple an extended fan base which has helped David extend his brand far beyond sports.

Beckham has worked for a number of charities over the years, inlcuding UNICEF, Malaria No More and MLS W.O.R.K.S.

Because Beckham goes far beyond the sporting world, it's definitely going to be interesting to see which direction he takes in a few years after his soccer career is over.

I don't think that'll be the end of the Beckham brand.

Entertainment Trends | Poster for Jim Carrey Version of 'A Christmas Carol'

Entertainment Trends

Do we need another version of A Christmas Carol? Jim Carrey seems to think so, and he's going to play the part of old man Scrooge, to be released in the next Christmas season.

What I do like is this poster made to advertise the upcoming version to be released in Germany.

This is just too cool, and it makes me wonder if the representation of the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future will look much different in this one. That could draw people to see it again if that's the case, and if there's an interestingly enough twist to the show while keep true to the core story line.

Either way, I want this poster! It's really a quality image, whether you want to go see the film or not.
