PopSugarUK | February 23, 2009 5:36 amThe 2009 Oscars took place in LA last night with our fellow Brits taking home a huge number of awards! Slumdog Millionaire was the big winner with eight gold statues including Best Picture and Best Director for Danny Boyle, while Kate Winslet won Best Actress for her role in The Reader — here's what she had to say in the press room following her win! Sean Penn won Best Actor for his role in Milk, beating out Mickey Rourke to the gong, while Penelope Cruz and Heath Ledger won the Best Supporting trophies, with Heath's award being picked up by his family.Read More
PopSugarUK | February 11, 2009 9:00 amSophie Ellis-Bextor has given birth to a son, who weighed just 2lb 10oz, nine weeks early. Sophie had pre-eclampsia, and also suffered from the condition with her first child, Sonny. Her mum, Janet Ellis, said Sophie and husband Richard Jones's new son "is doing fine.Read More
PopSugarUK | February 6, 2009 7:00 amThe Curious Case of Benjamin Button is a marvel of storytelling, special effects and acting, with an awesome performance from Brad Pitt as the eponymous character who is born an old man and becomes physically younger as the years pass by. The interiors and locations beautifully evoke the different eras the tale charts, from the First World War to the twenty-first century, but it's the film's moving portrayal of mortality that held me captivated.
Cate Blanchett gives a subtle performance as Benjamin's love interest, Daisy, and is as convincing in her portrayal of a dancer in her twenties as she is in old age.Read More
PopSugarUK | February 3, 2009 2:00 pmIt's time to let you know all the new releases that I recommend this week! First up I have a couple of DVDs for you — Guy Ritchie's RocknRolla came out yesterday and I very much enjoyed this fun-filled crime caper. It has some amusing performances in it, especially from Gerard Butler and face to watch Tom Hardy.Read More
PopSugarUK | February 2, 2009 3:04 pmIt's a new month so it's time for some of my Must Haves yet again! I'm turning my attention to goodies released this month, including many many DVDs, a couple of movies coming out at the cinema and a few albums to listen to as well. Don't forget to check out Fab UK's too!Read More
PopSugarUK | January 28, 2009 12:00 pmAfter arriving to lots of screams at Tokyo Airport yesterday with Angelina and all their adorable kids, Brad Pitt joined director David Fincher for a more sedate experience at The Curious Case of Benjamin Button press conference at the Grand Hyatt. As the film opens here in the UK on 6 Feb., I'm hoping Brad and Ange will be bringing their gorgeous family to our shores before they discover if all those Oscar nominations convert to wins at the ceremony on 22 Feb. The Jolie-Pitt clan will then be getting ready to settle in to their new £40million mansion in Long Island in March.Read More

PopSugarUK | December 9, 2008 10:00 amBrad Pitt and Cate Blanchett's new movie The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button premiered last night in Westwood, California, and a whole host of glamorous stars showed up to the black tie event. Angelina Jolie walked the press line in a simple but stunning long black dress to support her man, Jennifer Lopez showed up in anything but innocent white, and Tilda Swinton wore a long muted stripy number. Julia Roberts' actress niece Emma Roberts also wore black, and looked demure and elegant in her lace dress — love those shoes!Read More
PopSugarUK | October 21, 2008 9:00 amI've been looking ahead to what we could read together in our PopUK Book Club.

Some have been published recently while some are classics, and different genres are represented, from the short story to children's fiction to chick lit.Read More
