Scarlett Johansson’s Sinatra Secret
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Celebrity Gossip
Scarlett Johansson wants to be Frank Sinatra.
The Lost in Translation star admits that the Rat Pack singer-and-actor was one of her childhood heroes and she hopes to emulate his singing voice in the future:
“I always wanted to be Frank Sinatra. Even as a little kid, I always thought I’d grow up and sound like Sinatra. I’m still waiting for that to happen. A lot of actors are great mimics anyway, and that can relate to music as well. I think all singers are acting, whether it’s their lyrics or another writer’s lyrics, they are performing. I don’t think the two are dissimilar.”
Uh, oh—watch out, Leo.
Despite her success, Scarlett—who is set to release her second album, The Break-Up, a series of duets with close friend Pete Yorn—admits she is still astonished when she lands big jobs. She told Britain’s The Times newspaper, “That always shocks me, when I get hired for anything. Either as an actor or, in this case, a vocalist for hire. As soon as one project ends, you never think you will get the chance again. I was just flattered that Pete thought of me and put the faith in me that I could creatively collaborate on anything.”

Jessica Biel Sings for Easy Virtue Soundtrack
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Videos
We already know that Justin Timberlake can sing, dance and act—but does his girlfriend have more than one talent?
Later this summer, Jessica Biel will be taking a break from the small screen to test out her chops in a smaller forum. “I auditioned for a summer production of Guys and Dolls at the Hollywood Bowl. I thought, ‘Well, I’m not a soprano anymore, but I guess I’ll go in for it.’ I literally walked in and said, ‘I can do this song but we’re going to have to drop it down a few notes.’ Actually, I did pretty well and I got the part of Sandy, which I’ll be performing later this summer,” Biel told Parade.

No Rave Reviews for Hilton’s Repo!
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Lionsgate, Horror, Musicals, Science Fiction, Filmmaking, New Releases
The press for Repo! The Genetic Opera has been going strong for a long, long time now…and I have to be honest in saying that I never was sold on the idea. Set in the year 2056, the movie illustrates a scary world where one company controls all organ transplants and high-end plastic surgery. Easy financing leads to some of the most gruesome repossessions you could imagine - hence, the title. The movie’s biggest claims to fame have always been a cult-like appeal and the name Paris Hilton, who was attached to the project early.
Did I mention it’s also a musical? But if you’re expecting something sort of oddball and fun like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, or something dark and grim like Sweeny Todd, you could be taken by surprise. Reviews for the movie are in…and no one seems to be raving for Repo! or Miss Hilton, either.
