Avatar Take-Over

Submitted by Paul Nyhart on 12/21/2009 – 5:00 amNo Comment

Well we kick off the work-week, today. Half of us having seen Avatar, the other half still snowed in. If you’re an actor in Hollywood, it’s probably no different than any other day–the gym just happens to be a little more crowded. Good news if you’re also a writer, as the coffee shops shouldn’t be cluttered with the weekend loiterers.

I’m out of luck because I have to write daily columns on gossip. Talk about snake-eyes.

Your Daily Drama for Monday December 21, 2009.

One of the Jonas Brother–to be more specific–the one with curly hair, that can’t really sing, and is kind of gay looking, got married Saturday night. Kevin Jonas and Danielle Deleasa, exchanged vows. I also hear the couple exchanged sweet glances and trinkets compliments of Kay jewelry. As if that vision isn’t tacky enough, in vintage Jonas Brothers style, the trio tied in a Disney theme for the wedding. Why not?

“The snow only made it look more like a winter wonderland,” said Michael Russo, a celebrity event planner of Roses-n-Lollipops, who for Saturday’s event created a fairytale forest under heated white tents, complete with 14-foot trees draped in hydrangeas and crystals made to look like icicles.

For the maximum level of authenticity, female guests were required to wear glass slippers while gentleman were given the option of either Aladdin, Genie, or Jafaar costumes. The Jonas brothers petitioned for the “Evil Genie Jafaar” but troubles with an Asian licensing agent prevented that dream from ever coming true.SurvivorNatalie_1209164631-000

Speaking of dreams coming true, that’s exactly what happened for the winner of televisions most popular reality show. Spoiler Alert! The following contains trivial, worthless, and completely pointless information that qualifies more as a re-telling rather than the passing along of useful information. I’ve blown it already–I’m talking about Survivor, of course.

The show revealed it’s winner last night. Natalie White, 26, a former pharmaceutical sales rep from Arkansas, won the $1 million prize. She also wins fifteen minutes of fame, and a spot in her local community gazette. They’re also compiling b-roll footage now for her “Where are the Reality Stars Now” segment, to be featured on E! in 2012.

Speaking of 2012, here’s a movie that would appear to actually make some money this winter, Fox’s 430 million dollar investment, known to movie fans as Avatar, seems to be well on it’s way to paying off. The studio estimated that it grossed roughly 230 million dollars worldwide. If it weren’t for the snow on the Eastern sea-board, the numbers might have been even higher. On the flip side, if anything else besides “Did you Hear About the Morgans?” released, it would have caused enough competition to offset a tornado the size of Wyoming.
