Can James overcome the stigma?
Ex supermodel James King fights hard to overcome the
MTA stigma. The Omaha girl stars in three movies this year, following
up her success as Nurse Betty in "Pearl Harbor":
- "Slackers", a comedy on college students, is already
in theaters. James is Angela, the girl all students dream of. The
film is written by David Steinberg (story for "American Pie 2")
and directed by former fashion photographer Dewey Nicks (film debut).
"Slackers" don't sound like a good bet; the reception was
as bad as it gets: "A turn off" (L.A. Times), "twaddle"
(Rolling Stone), "discordant" (S.F. Chronicle), "painfully
bad" (Chicago Tribune), "thus far the worst movie of 2002"
(Atlanta Journal). There is an official website here.
- "Lone Star State of Mind", written by Trevor Munson
(writing debut), will be released at April 12. James is a small town
girl from Texas, who's dream of moving to L.A. with her sweetheart
(played by Joshua Jackson) lands on hot water. David Semel, director
for tv hits "Beverly Hills 90210", "Buffy the Vampire
Slayer" and "Dawson's Creek", makes his film debut.
- Comic based "Bulletproof Monk", the adventurous
story of an immortal Tibetan kung fu master, is written by Ethan Reiff
and Cyrus Voris ("Josh Kirby", "Demon Knight")
and directed by Paul Hunter ("The Wizard of Oz" with Snoop
Doggy Dogg). James is a Russian Princess. The filming begins this
weekend in Toronto. "Bulletproof Monk" will be released
late this year or early in 2003. |

• Norwegian model stars in "Terminator 3"
22 year old model Kristanna Loken (3rd place at
the 1994 Elite Look of the Year contest) stars in "Terminator
3", next to Arnold Schwarzenegger. This is the first major studio
film for the Norwegian model who never made it to the very top of
the fashion industry. Kristanna's name was revealed only last week.
She was selected among thousands of candidates for the leading "T-3"
female role, this of a sophisticated killer cyborg. The filming begins
in April with a rumoured budget of more than 170 mil USD and Jonathan
Mostow ("U-571") replacing James Cameron as director. "Terminator
3" will be released in 2003. |

+ London:
Soviet style comes in from the cold
Daily Telegraph - Tata-Naka show
(Don't know why anyone would want to celebrate
one of the most brutal, awful, regimes in history? Or why anyone
would want to buy and support it? There's a book out there called,
"Bias".
It was written by a former CBS news reporter, on how American news
is unbalanced and politically balanced to one side. No surprise
fashion journalism falls into this bias. I'm sure they don't mean
too. So I'm not pointing fingers. I just want to bring up something.
Remember back in 1999. When GQ listed
its 200 most stylish men of the 20th century, which included the
Nazis. It cost the editor his job and caused quite a stir. Yet someone
glorifies a country, thankfully gone from earth, created by the
Bolsheviks. I've yet to see anyone do a review of this show where
they question the designers' source of inspiration.
Where's not talking about Galliano
visiting St. Petersburg to get ideas. I'm also not judging what
these designers did. I'm just pointing out a bias fashion seems
to have.)

Otis Puts Pen To Paper

modelling business, her drug addiction, her resurgence as a plus-size
model and her marriage to Rourke. Carre: "I've withheld information
[in the past], because you can't always rely on somebody doing an
interview accurately. A lot of the writing is very difficult - journeying
through my childhood, reliving some of the rapes, the upset of a marriage
that didn't work, the loneliness at points in my career. It's been
a healing process, very liberating but very painful."

Supermodel Carmen Kass is about to make her acting
debut in an American/Estonian co-production. Michael Madsen stars
while Carmen appears as an Estonian translator. This is a very low
budget film -reportedly 1.3 mil USD total budget. No major studio
is involved, thus not much reliable information is known yet about
the project. Estonian speakers could probably find more at delfi
• Sunny goes to Hollywood
Model Sunny Mabrey debuts as a film actress on Columbia
Pictures' movie, "The New Guy", in theaters May 10th. In
fact, there are way too many debuts on this film: Tv producer/writer
Ed Decter debuts as a film director while tv writer David Kendall
debuts as a film writer. "The New Guy" is a typical highschool
comedy about nerds, cool guys and cheerleaders. Its logline, "a
zero will rise", says it all. Sunny, who also appeared in two
episodes of "Angel" tv series, plays Courtney, the love
blond. There is a trailer, a photo gallery, bios plus a synopsis at

Models on Movies -by Basilio
• Rie Rasmussen's debut film
Rie Rasmussen appears in "Femme Fatale",
a contemporary film noir written and directed by Brian De Palma.
"Femme Fatale" was filmed in France at a cost of 14 mil
euros. De Palma self financed it. Antonio Banderas stars as a paparazzo
who's after an ambassador's wife, played by ex-supermodel Rebecca
Romjin Stamos, who's trying to escape from her mysterious past.
Ryuichi Sakamoto replaced Patrick Doyle as a composer for the soundtrack.
The film will be released in Europe in 2002. Up to now no major
studio is officialy involved as a US distributor, there is a rumour
though that Fox expressed an interest. Rie Rasmussen appears in
a small role and is credited as "Rie". There is a preview
at femmefatalethemovie.com
