They'd look adorable together



-
That Ellen Page, the Nova Scotia cutie who's been getting buzz of the most ingenious kind lately and is on the precipice of even bigger fame, seems to have a crush on fellow, fast-rising Canuck Michael Cera.

Of the Brampton-sprung actor -- her co-star in the fantastic, upcoming Juno-- she says, "he's got my heart," and that "not only is he so friggin' talented, he's one of the sweetest human beings I've ever met."

And, well, not only that, but Cera is "such a good guitar player." That's just the way she put it all recently to Asia's Stars Movie channel.

By the way, did you hear that Ellen was in Beverly Hills the other week to pick up the breakthrough actress award at the 11th Annual Hollywood Awards Gala? Richard Gere. John Travolta. Director Brad Bird. Just some of the fine podium company she was keeping then!

And now you know why Ellen and I would never work out: I'm not sweet, I'm not talented and my guitar is nothing more than a blunderbuss in disguise. Ellen and George Michael (yes, I still call him that) would look cute together, wouldn't they?

Juno takes top prize at RomeFilmFest

Juno won the Marco Aurelio Award for best film at the RomeFilmFest (I'm sure that's the correct name of the event). The movie was selected from 14 competitors by a 50-member jury made of ordinary movie-goers.

Juno to deliver prematurely

That headline could've gone a number of ways.

Juno will hit theaters ten days earlier than expected in New York and Los Angeles, on Wednesday December 5th. Fox Searchlight is also holding free screenings, check here to RSVP. All the spots in my town are already taken. Like they always say, "act quick or get left out".

One degree of Ellen Page

If the numerous television commercials haven't told you yet, the new horror movie 30 Days of Night opens today. What does this movie have to do with Ellen? It stars Ben Foster and Mark Rendall, both actors she has worked with in the past, and both of whom she has been (falsely, likely) linked to romantically. The movie is also directed by David Slade, who previously directed Hard Candy.

Why does Ellen Page cry after sex?

Because it's all The People Under the Stairs' fault.



I on the other hand cry only after reading Charlotte's Web.

Welcome back again

Website went down for awhile. Server upgrades.

Montreal Gazette article

The Montreal Gazette (and not Gazetta, thank you dyslexia) posted a new article on Ellen some ten hours ago. Read it here. She goes into her non-acting interests, including free-range chicken and bok choy. Bok choy quite literally means "white vegetable" in Chinese. There's your free lesson for today.

You haven't noticed, I'm sure you haven't, but I've been building an archive of press articles on Ellen. Figured, then the site would always have a copy, should the original sources go down.

ReGenesis on American TV

It's actually been on for several weeks, but ReGenesis is the latest in what seems to be a hundred Canadian TV shows being syndicated on American television. The show is about a team of scientists dealing with biochemistry, diseases, viruses and things of that nature. It's A LOT better than it sounds.

Ellen guest-stars on several episodes (airing now) as the main character's daughter. Mark Rendall (her good friend, as you might know) is also in the same episodes, and plays (get ready for this) a boy who thinks he's a clone of his brother, who's 2 years older than him, but actually turns out to be his brother's twin.

You can catch ReGenesis on ABC, Mondays at 1:35 AM. Awful timeslot, right?

Welcome back

It certainly took a while longer than I had expected. I had completely forgotten to test-drive the site in IE (why are people still using that?) and had to rewrite a lot of stuff.

A lot of the content is missing - okay, so there wasn't much to begin with, but I'll be updating everything day-by-day.

Forums are open as well.
