DOS Ch-252
Robert Downey Jr. couldn’t believe his luck. Just two years ago, he had thought he would die a forgettable actor, remembered only as a junkie. But now, he was starring in the biggest blockbuster of the summer so far. “You did it, honey,” Susan, his wife, congratulated him with a hug when the figures finally came in. “We did it,” Robert corrected her. “I couldn’t have done it without you.” If he was clean today, it was all thanks to her, so it was obvious she had played a huge role…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

STS Ch-24
The flight back home turned out to be rather anticlimactic. I had expected something noteworthy to happen, some kind of dramatic farewell or surprise, but nothing did. Julie sat beside me in first class, and we spent most of the time talking when we weren’t dozing off. The rest of the senior crew members, Randal, Nestor, and a few others, were seated in business class. My two friends, along with everyone else who wasn’t considered essential to the production, were tucked away in economy. It was a…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

“If there’s one thing I hope you take away from today’s lesson, it’s that there are no painless solutions in this world, only trade-offs. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either campaigning for elections… or hasn’t done the assigned reading, as you’re about to do this weekend.” I couldn’t stop the amused snort that escaped me, and half the students were in the same boat. It helped that our professor was one of the coolest on campus. “See you all next week.” Everyone seemed…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

DOS Ch-19
Mum was driving me to the school when we saw that a few men were lurking around the front gate. That’s odd. Just then I caught sight of something black in one of the man’s hands and I could hazard a very good guess who they were. “Mum, reporters are here. Oh yes, I almost forgot. Drive around, the principal gave me permission to use the back entrance.” I ducked my head to avoid getting caught by the sight of any of the reporters. “I know about that. I didn’t think they’d be here…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“You are very pretty, Julie,” I said honestly to the girl sitting beside me. Julie blushed visibly before ducking her head. “Oh, come on. Don’t use one of your lines on me.” “I’m not,” I insisted. “If I were using a line, I would say something like, ‘Are you sure you’re not a fallen angel? Because you have landed right into my heart.’” Julie laughed beautifully, and all her nervousness from before vanished instantly. “That wasn’t half bad,” she complimented. “I…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

“Here’s to a successful first day of shooting!” Randal Kleiser raised a toast as we all gathered around the bonfire, our faces flickering in the warm glow of the flames. “Cheers!” I echoed the sentiment along with the rest of the cast and crew, lifting my glass of champagne high before taking a generous sip. The bubbles tickled my throat, and the sense of celebration was contagious. Beside me, Julie raised a coconut water instead, holding it a bit hesitantly. “You're overthinking…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

~Just take those old records off the shelfI'll sit and listen to 'em by myselfToday's music ain't got the same soulI like that old-time rock 'n' roll~ The music blared in the background as I bungled another take. Or more like the floor did. I’d either overdo the slide and land on the extreme right of the frame, or underdo it and land on the left. For some fucking reason, I just couldn’t land in the middle the way I wanted. “Fuck!” I cursed out loud. Paul turned to the assistant director.…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

What the absolute motherfucking fuck! I am so screwed. My career is over. I may as well pack my bags and leave mainland USA. Maybe Europe would be more accepting of me? Or maybe Canada? Australia? Thoughts like that kept running through my head because I didn't know what to do in this situation. Never in a thousand years had I imagined I'd be caught in the middle of a sex scandal and forced to deal with it on live television. “Noah?” Johnny Carson called after a moment. “Would you like a glass…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

In the end, I didn’t have to call my childhood friends over to help me out. I hadn’t expected the entire VES department to fight for a spot on my crew, but in hindsight, of course, they wanted in. “Noah.” A girl stood right in front of me, her posture rigid and her eyes blazing with determination. “I’ll be your cinematographer on this film,” she said. “That’s final.” I blinked, caught completely off guard. I’d barely stepped into the VES classroom and hadn’t even said…- 259.9 K • Ongoing

The New York Times A Rising Star's Privacy Meets Television's Appetite Last night's appearance by actor Noah Hunter on became less an interview than an unexpected confrontation. Shown censored photographs reportedly taken without his knowledge on a Greek beach, Hunter responded not with theatrics but with visible anger. "My privacy was disgustingly invaded," the actor said, questioning how private vacation photographs had found their way into American tabloids. Whatever one thinks of…- 259.9 K • Ongoing
