THE HORIWOOD TOP 10 – THU 8.6.09

BarackObamaSoniaSotomayor

Although today’s news glory should belong to Sonia Sotomayor, the first confirmed Hispanic, Supreme Court Justice of America; it is the topless leaked pictures of a tween actress with a new film to promote; a betrayed bachelorette and the unstoppable rising young stars of Twilight Saga’s Eclipse who round out the top 10 most sought after entertainment news topics on Horiwood.Com today.

If there is one thing that maintaining a blog from Hollywood has taught me, blog numbers don’t lie. They show another side to democracy as the people and the masses vote each day with their mouse clicks and news choices.

From Hollywood tonight, enjoy your news choices you all made worldwide. Thank you all for being a part  of Horiwood.Com for 7 months now. Let’s keep this show going always with a spirit of fun and a sense of play! :)

Congratulations Sonia Sotomayor!!! How cool and inspiring is she?! Well done. Wow!!!

DALE’S TRIP TO LA

HollywoodBoulevard2

Recently a girlfriend, Dale, came to LA from New Zealand to say hi after a 7 day vacation in Las Vegas.

PICT0189We are both pictured here at the Beverly Wilshire after lunch on Rodeo before Dale flew out again.

PICT0188

The Wilshire is where Julia Roberts and Richard Gere filmed the hit movie, Pretty Woman, which kick started Roberts’ career into A-List super stardom.

I was blessed by Dale’s shining visit. She’s as sharp as Chelsea Handler of the Chelsea Lately show. So much so, that I wish Dale would stand for politics in New Zealand. She’s the Julia Roberts of New Zealand politics. A true star.

PICT0190

Having seen a lot of politicians serve the New Zealand people and watching the news each night from Washington too here in the US, I think Dale has one of the best political minds that New Zealand has to offer. Dale…. please do stand as a politician. The country needs you.

Anyway, here’s Dale on vacation, doing a booty hip bump with ‘Barack Obama,’ and paying tribute from New Zealand to Michael Jackson’s star on Hollywood Boulevard, for the contributions in music and entertainment that MJ gave to all New Zealanders, back in the day.

Maoris loved MJ’s music and still do. He did a lot for better race relations of all Maori in New Zealand on the airwaves and as a music artist. It was nice to see Dale at his star in Hollywood.

Now when can we get The Pounamu Walk of Fame conceptualised and developed in New Zealand featuring befitting and noble tributes to NZ greats like Peter Jackson, Sir Edmund Hilary, Colin Meade, Moana Maniapoto, Michael Jones, Richard Chandler, Sir Peter Buck (Te Rangi Hiroa), Sir Apiriana Ngata, Witi Ihimaera, Janet Frame and The Maori Queen for example?

Positioning The Pounamu Walk of Fame, either at Te Papa Museum along the Wellington waterfront in the nation’s capitol or along the Auckland Waterfront in the largest Polynesian City in the world, would be perfect, as a tribute to culture and those who’ve inspired and extended cultural life throughout history.

PICT0194

While here, the effervescent and lovely Dale stayed at The Hotel Angeleno at the base of LA’s stunning Getty Museum, which is home to the largest private art collection in the world.

HotelAngelino

Already, I miss Dale in LA! Thanks for coming Dale. You refresh and uplift the spirit. What a total honey! xox

BILLIONAIRE PHILANTHROPY JUST GOT HOTTER THANKS TO BILL GATES

BillGatesTimeMag

We’ve always maintained on Horiwood.Com that in a global recession (likened to the great depression in world history) there are two people that are incredibly important.

Politicians but also the billionaire philanthropist. According to Bill Gates, the richest known man in the world, says: “I think all billionaires should give away the vast majority of their fortune. I’m not saying they shouldn’t leave anything for their kids or to have a little bit for themselves but yes, I think they would enjoy it, I think their kids would be better off, and I think the world would be better off.”

Oprah must be trembling in her boots right now! Just kidding, but Bill is so right! It’s about being a Mr Schindler vs being an Adolph Hitler, from Schindler’s List’s key message that Steven Spielberg depicted in his film starring Liam Neeson.

If you can’t take your wealth and fame with you, let it live on the living legacy of the masses who need a helping hand.

What a powerful message for Bill Gates. Along with Billionaire Philanthropist Richard Chandler of New Zealand making a difference in India, he’s my new hero!

BILLIONAIRE PHILANTHROPY IS HOT!

a la mode: Richard Chandler of New Zealand & Monaco 

In a global recession, the billionaire philanthropist has the opportunity to be the greatest star on the earth in our modern times. It’s a phenomenon that the world is about to see unleashed like never before. There is a direct link between what you give, and what you will then earn… and the well being and health of one’s soul or the state of its leanness. Giving makes people come into the place of their higher calling.

Billionaire Philanthropy is the very purpose of money making gifts given to people, family, individuals and companies. They exist for the benefit of others. These gifts need to come to the fore and shine. I am confident that they are.

Richard Chandler has donated at least $100million to education in India and also SouthEast Asia. What a guy!

WHAT A GUY! RICHARD CHANDLER IS A BILLIONAIRE PHILANTHROPIST WHOSE REBUILDING INDIA

While many just say they care about the world, some people really do.

Meet Richard Chandler, a New Zealand Billionaire and he’s the 701st richest person in the world. Chandler’s philanthropic passion to making the world a better place excedes to US$100 million. What a guy!

Richard Chandler has heavily invested in India to help educate the poor. While Hollywood stares through our silver screens at Slumdog Millionaire misfortunes of the poor, it is this New Zealander, Richard Chandler, who is actually doing something about it. He started this trend years ago. Props Kiwi brother! Rock on! You are the fulfillment of what Barack Obama is talking about in the world. It’s heartening to see a billionaire who believes in the concept of PROSPERITY TO ALL! Nice work Kiwi! In a global recession, the billlionaire philanthropist is perhaps the greatest star on the earth in our modern times. Props to you brotha. Shouting out from Hollywood, in the City of Angels to a true star on the earth. Nice job! Keep on inspiring with great leadership. Hopefully Chandler’s Indian brothers and sister billionaires are also following suit with investing into the poor in India too. There are a LOT of Indian billionaires in the world. That’s a good sign for the global economy.
