But Gerard Butler has some help from Craig Ferguson and America Ferrera who are at the Los Angeles premiere of ‘How To Train Your Dragon‘ a 3D animated movie about:

T.J. Miller
Jay Baruchel

Fred Willard
Kim Raver

Methinks Gerard Butler’sDragon is hardly trainable. Just saying.
This was my first telephone interview and I was over the top excited because it was with Nikki Yanofsky. For those of you living under a rock, Nikki is the singer behind the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics’ theme song I Believe (she also sang the Canadian National Anthem at the opening ceremonies). I Believe reached TRIPLE PLATINUM and was top of iTunes Canada forever!
But there is so much more to Nikki than just that: she is a child prodigy. She has performed internationally at jazz festivals and major concert venues alongside such notables as: Wyclef Jean, Celine Dion, Marvin Hamlisch and The Count Basie Orchestra.
She sang Ella Fitzgerald’s classic ‘Airmail Special’ for Verve’s We All Love Ella: Celebrating the Frist Lady of Song. She recorded Gotta Go My Own Way in English and French for High School Musical 2 and in September of 2008 she released her first full-length album (a live CD/DVD concert package) entitled ‘Ella Of Thee I Swing’.
She will be opening up the Toronto Jazz Festival on June 25th!! She is 16 years old people!! She has worked with some of the greatest musicians: Herbie Hancock, Will.i.am, as well as collaborating with Phil Ramone, Jesse Harris, Ron Sexsmith and Feist on her new album which will be in stores in Canada on April 22 and May 5 in the United States entitled Nikki. (update: the album was released in Canada on April 20 and will be released in the U.S. May 4)
She is such an incredible young lady with an old soul yet still a teenager, but the teenager parents dream about. Watch this video to see just how incredible she is. This girl is going to be a huge star!
Imagine if you will, going about your typical weekend routine of shopping, running errands, etc. and who do you see in the parking lot but Ozzy Osbourne, Sharon Osbourne and Kelly Osbourne (and her cute adorable little dog). How crazy would that be, right? The reactions of the people in the background are priceless. :)
Every time I see Ozzy I think of him saying Kelly‘s name on their reality show ‘Kell-ay…Kell-ay’. It cracks me up.
The Osbournes are at Cross Creek Malibu in Los Angeles.
Animal lovers unite! The 24th Annual Genesis Awards were held in Beverly Hills last night which honours the major news and entertainment media for producing outstanding works which raise public understanding of animal issues.
This year, Melanie Griffith’s mother, Tippi Hedren received the Lifetime Achievement Award for her tireless dedication with The Roar Foundation’s Shambala Preserve an 80-acre wildlife habitat that she founded in 1983. Their mission:
To educate the public about exotic animals and to advocate for legislation to protect them. To provide sanctuary for exotic animals who have suffered from gross mistreatment and neglect so they can regain their physical and mental health and live out their lives in dignity.
Lots of celebrities attending the event including my very favourite Bachelor EVER Matt Grant who I must say looks better and better everytime I see pictures of him. Who thought that was even possible?
True Blood’sAlexander Skarsgard leaves Lemonade in West Hollywood after having lunch with friends. I don’t care if he was selling weiners from a hot dog cart. Dude looks smoking hot. I need to get me some of that.
Johnny Knoxville is out and about in Brentwood. He’s got a nice physique.
Jessica Alba takes her car to the car wash. And I thought my life was uneventful.
Julie Benz leaves Lemonade in West Hollywood after having lunch with friends. Is it deja vu? No it’s not. Perhaps she is so happy and giddy because she either saw Alexander Skarsgard or had lunch with him. I’m not sure the current status but apparently in 2008 she was dating Vice President of Marketing for Warner Bros. Television Rich Orosco.
Jill Hennessy and her son bask in the sun at Washington Square Park in New York.
German novelty company Donkey Products have turned famous faces from the worlds of fashion, music and politics into fun-loving teabags.
Supermodel Naomi Campbell and fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld feature on teabags alongside U.S. President Barack Obama and French leader Nicolas Sarkozy, while late music greats including Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson and John Lennon are also represented in the Prêt-à-porTea collection.
Photos below of: President Barack Obama, Audrey Hepburn, Karl Lagerfeld, Elvis Presley, Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon, Bob Marley, Michael Jackson, Donatella Versace and other fashion celebrities I can’t quite figure out.
