With tensions at an all-time high, I was on the edge of my seat when Mum took my hand and squeezed gently. I turned to her in amazement because the camera was on me along with all the nominees, thus I had a smile fixed on my face, but she understood with a mere look what I was feeling deep down. ‘It’s okay,’ she mouthed and I was back to being my normal self instantly.I grinned at her and squeezed her hand back before turning to the stage where Hilary Swank had opened the envelope by now.“And then…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
- After wrapping up ‘Dancer’, Mum and I had to return to the States for the promotion of . The fact that I was recognized by three different people on my flight because of ‘the upcoming Bruce Willis movie’ showed that Disney’s promotion strategy was working wonderfully.At the end of the day, it was about the number of people who were aware of the film. Once people knew about the film, it came down to reviews and word of mouth. Not to mention, Bruce Willis’ mass appeal, which automatically…

- After a whole month of relentless dance rehearsals and dialect lessons, it was finally time for the table read.As soon as I sat down, I saw that most of the people had already arrived. I immediately recognized Stephen Daldry from my audition, and of course, Peter Darling, my dance teacher. Then there were Greg and Jon, the producers I met while signing the contract. Jon was an okay guy, but Greg seemed a bit stiff when we last met.Among the cast members present, I instantly recognized the most famous one,…

“Get up, Noah! I have things to do.” A pillow was hurled at my head, jolting me awake. I blinked blearily, trying to process what was happening, only to see my Daddy dearest. My second father if I consider my first life as well. (Or should that be third, considering that asshole Poseidon?) “Yeah, Dad,” I mumbled, forcing myself up from my too-cramped bed. Why did I have to ask to be tall? And why did Poseidon make me 6’2”? Why not a nice, even 6’? “Here’s what you’ll do…- 165.3 K • Ongoing
- “Damn,” Ash whistled softly as he took in the stream of girl groups walking past us. The late summer air was filled with the excitement of students returning after the break or freshmen starting a new chapter in their lives. “Now I regret not coming to college. Just look at those chicks go. The sway in their step is enough to wreck my heart.” Julie turned to me, one eyebrow arched. “Did I ever tell you that you have a pig for a friend?” I snorted. “Believe me, this is very tame behavior…

- I looked over at the modest house, about a half-hour’s drive from my parents’ place. The neighborhood was quite well-off, for a woman who, at one point, had been desperate enough for money to disparage me publicly.“Are you okay, Troy?” Paolo, my head of security, asked, his tone laced with concern. “We can go back and come here later if you want.”The way he kept scanning the area for potential threats made his true worry obvious: my safety if anyone recognized me.“No,” I shook my head. “I…

- u/MildlyUnhinged (OP):BLIND ITEM: A very famous A-list actor, who recently proposed to his girlfriend, who’s another A-lister, did it because the girlfriend is pregnant. I work with the girl, and the entire crew saw her puking her guts out. The actor’s team came to our workplace not long after that and threatened all the crew members not to spread any rumors. So, of course, I had to make this post. u/throwaway_echo_21: Holy moly! Is that Troy and Scarlett??!!! Now it makes so much sense why he…

- @RealNinaB: My dad just lost his retirement savings. Meanwhile, Troy Armitage made $26 BILLION from this crash. He’s 19. Nineteen. This is dystopia. I’ve lost all trust in our politicians for letting this happen. @OccupyWallStRedux: This isn't "smart investing", this is legalized looting. While Americans drown in debt, Troy Armitage is probably popping champagne on a yacht.#TroyArmitageExploitsCrisis @ThisIsYourEconomy: Reminder: You paid more in taxes last year than Troy Armitage did to become…

- Scarlett cleared her throat awkwardly and tried again. “I’m sorry, Troy. I got a little carried away and didn’t see where I was going.”“I’m fine, Ms. Johansson. Are you okay?” I smiled at the future Black Widow in a stunning red dress. Her golden blonde hair fell to her shoulders in soft curls, perfectly complementing her vibrant green eyes, making her look out of this world. Of course, a big contributing factor to her look was her plunging neckline and her larger than usual bust.She nodded…

- I blame my teenage hormones for agreeing to Emily’s request. Any sane person would tell me that this is a very bad idea. Kissing someone for a scene is one thing, but doing it for ‘practice’ while all alone was unnecessary and almost as bad as cheating. I knew that very well. Still, I agreed to Emily’s request for reasons that I couldn’t fathom.But it wasn’t meant to be. As if some divine power was watching over me, I got a call from Emma right at the moment when Emily was about to kiss…
