Gwenyth Paltrow did a classic skit on Saturday Night Live where she came out acting very *English* and her boyfriend Ben Affleck jumped up and exclaimed "You're not English", well, you would have had to have seen the skit. . .

1) Gwyneth Paltrow vs. Elizabeth Hurley (the Star)
The headline: "Gwyneth and Liz! Catfight!"
The dispute: "Claws are being sharpened for an all-out catfight" between the two women over who will become the new face of Estée Lauder cosmetics. Word on the street, says the Star, is that Lauder executives are "fed up with [Hurley's] very public love affairs and constant flaunting of her sexuality," preferring the "hot—yet wholesome—presence projected by Paltrow."
Sample (supposed) jabs:
Hurley: "Who does that bony thing think she is? I'll see to it that she doesn't upstage me. The public likes a real woman, one who's got some curves."
Paltrow: "Isn't Liz just a tad too old for that job, anyway," Paltrow supposedly "icily" asked a pal.
Winner: Hurley, by a nose.

'I am totally Daddy's girl'
Gwyneth Paltrow, who loves working in Britain and is in town to shoot
Possession, talks to Sarah Bailey
GWYNETH PALTROW answers the door of the pretty mews house she is renting
in London. She has bare feet and is dressed in beige cords and a little
fitted white shirt, which reveals inches of yoga-hard tummy. (That's
Ashtanga yoga for you, six days a week, without skipping - "you get past a
point mentally", apparently.)
She ushers me upstairs into a breezy white-on-beige sitting room that is,
she says, not unlike her place in New York. A Dyptique Freesia candle is
burning and another, Moroccan Mint Tea, remains unlit. Gwyneth has laid on
lunch - treats from her local Italian deli in London and jasmine tea from
Chinatown in Los Angeles. She chats about her Possession co-star Aaron
Lockhart ("huge heart, very sensitive beats himself up a lot") and the
challenge of playing literary sleuth Maud Bailey, on account of Maud's
"super English" phlegm and glacier reserve.

Hey, The Telegraph is my favourite newspaper :-)
Liz Hurley vs. Gwyneth Paltrow, huh? Hmmm...not a big fan of either of them, it has to be said, but I think I'd favour GP. She a blondie, right? Gotta like a blonde... (I certainly liked the blondes when I was out last night :)

Talking of movies, I'm debating whether to get a TV at the moment. I haven't had one for the last six months because it's so full of crap that I never watch it anyway. However, I would like to watch lots of movies so that I can get ideas for this place (and ideas for another place, but we won't go in to that... :-). Should I get a TV? Should I not get a TV?
It's a dilemma. Think I'll go back to dribbling over girls now. :-)

From the Canadian canoe.ca
Oscar-winner Gwyneth Paltrow is in talks with Estee Lauder to take over as the company's spokesmodel -- a job currently held by Elizabeth Hurley, according to MSNBC.
The story said the makeup company has become disenchanted with Hurley after a string of negative publicity, including having the premiere of her recent film "Bedazzled" picketed by striking members of the Actors Guild, angered that she shot commercials in violation of the strike.
At stake is a multi-million-dollar modelling contract and a massive ad campaign that would be centered around Paltrow.
Paltrow has time on her side, too. She's 28, while Hurley is 35, and Paltrow's squeaky-clean image is said to be preferable to Hurley, who was recently reportedly caught in a romantic tangle with married comedian Denis Leary, the report said.

Liz vs. Gwyneth--can't go wrong with either one, they're both so glamorous.
Mike, you can a TV/VCR combination (I think the largest you can get is 19") which requires no cable access if all you plan to do is watch videos. They run for less than $200 here.

Chicago Sun-Times
July 9, 2001
BY CINDY PEARLMAN
ROSES ARE RED: Gwyneth Paltrow can get her British up again. She just
wrapped ''Possession,'' a romantic drama she shot in England with
Gwynie as a British university prof who joins forces with an American
scholar Aaron Eckhart (''Erin Brockovich''). It's not like they're
just sitting around reading the classics--thank goodness. They're
also researching two famous Victorian poets who fell in love. Jeremy
Northam (Paltrow's ''Emma'' co-star) and Jennifer Ehle (''Paradise
Road'') are the word wizards. The two screen couples never met on the
set as their stories are set 150 years apart. ''Aaron and I only met
Jeremy and Jennifer in passing,'' Paltrow says. ''It's very weird
saying you're in the same movie but admitting you didn't get to do
any scenes together.''
Kind of like Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones in the movie about the drug wars,
Traffic. They're married but don't appear together in this movie.

I hope the movie is better than the book...
Saw GP in a film last night, "Duets", with Huey Lewis, which takes place on the karaoke circuit (I never knew there was such a thing!). I recommend it.

Gwenyth Paltrow did a first class performance in Emma.
It was funny and fresh, and you have to love how human she was. She has pitch perfect English. She's in every scene in that movie.
