Thoughts on Johnny Depp: It is ironic that the American man who spends 80% of his life living in France, is named People magazine’s sexiest [American] man alive. If that’s what it takes to be sexy in America, we all need to travel more and live abroad. So an interesting choice by People magazine today. I don’t [...]

Here’s another one of my favorite paintings by artist Colin McCahon. Simple yet stunning. Details follow:

Yesterday in beautiful Los Angeles, Adam Lambert got stabbed in the back by an ‘open letter’ from Out Magazine editor, while he graced the magazine’s cover. It was one of the most tackiest cases of gay-bashing and gay-grandstanding witnessed in the American media this year. The other was when Mario Lavandeira posted private naked pictures of [...]

NBC’s Sunday Night Football is the hot ticket for American TV audiences to watch, but it is CBS who is the big winner of American TV. 12 of the 20 top rating shows in America last week were CBS produced. That is amazing. A full list of the top 20 rated shows (with audience numbers) [...]

The Hollywood Insider is reporting that Harry Potter star, Daniel Radcliffe will spoof his fellow UK buddy, Robert Pattinson‘s Twilight character in an upcoming episode of The Simpsons. Radcliffe will loan his voice to the character, ‘Edmund,’ a vampire Lisa Simpson falls in love with. Sounds fun. Nice to see Radcliffe becoming ensconced more in US mainstream culture. [...]

VH1 is reporting that teen superstar, Miley Cyrus is not overly hung up on Twilight mania or vampire culture either. Giving a backstage interview at Cleveland Ohio to radio station Q92, Miley says: “I’ve never seen it and nor will I ever… I don’t believe in it. I don’t like vampires. … I don’t like the wolf [...]

And I take my cap off to her today, that family will always be more vital than Hollywood fame. Go girl. You are an A-List momma  from the UK in LA in my book. Victoria Beckham is totally inspiring today. In her own right.  How cool is Victoria Beckham. Too cool for Hollywood school. :) [...]

…. the people with ‘the nicest’ faces in Hollywood… are the biggest thieves. They hide behind past achievements, and past glories to roll you of all you’re worth… with a smile, of course. Thankfully… they don’t always win. Good people still get through… Like Joan Jett for example…  Horiwood.Com, Hollywood, California USA 11.17.09

What a gorgeous smile from, Joan Jett a brave pioneer of the women’s rock music genre, on the red carpet at New Moon‘s, Los Angeles film premiere, Monday. At 51 Joan Jett is still a winner in my Hollywood black book! (And, that’s quite a black book!!!). If you smile you’re winning. Always smile as Joan [...]

The Daily News has Sarah Palin‘s appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show as their cover, and Live Chat, want to cover the moment. Shallow Nation have the full interview clip if you must watch.

Art is one of the wonders of the world. Details of Colin McCahon‘s Angels and Bed No. 6 painting…  are as follows:  Title Angels and Bed no. 6 (Close) Artist Colin McCahon Production Date 1977 Medium acrylic on paper

“You are the salt of the earth.”– Don’t ever lose your flavor. The woman who is half of “Hollywood’s most talked about couple“; Angelina Jolie‘s promotional poster artwork for Salt has dropped. I love how the poster asks the question, who is the salt of Hollywood who flavors the mix of entertainment? Of course, salt is Jolie.

My three favorite painters are Ralph Hotere, Shane Cotton and Colin McCahon. They all use black a lot and their artworks are beautiful in defining people and human identity against landscape and place. Muhammad Ali had the ‘audacity’ to declare to America the words, “I am King,” to bear witness that “all men are created equal” as America’s founding [...]

Although Angelina Jolie looks busy  enough for any working mom of six children, Grazia Magazine of the UK wants Hollywood’s Queen to adopt for the 7th time. What a woman, whether she does or doesn’t. Angelina Jolie can do no wrong. :) ~Posted by Horiwood.Com, Hollywood California USA. 11.17.09~

Remember Godric in the True Blood Season 2 series, who got vaporized by the sun. The 21-year-old Danish actor, Allan Hyde who played Godric just tweeted this pic. The Three Wolf Moon Tee Shirt is so much fun! A cheap little fashion number that’s been the biggest selling tee all year.

Robert Pattinson says that he doesn’t have a problem going naked in a film if he landed the right part. The British actor said: “I think it would depend on what it is. And I don’t think a lot of people would really want to see that. I think it would ruin the illusion!” What is the big [...]

Out Magazine continue to make a meal out of B’Glam, singer Adam Lambert because he confessed in his interview that he had oral sex with a girl.
