Roberts Rents New York Summer Houses
This has made me think OMG, as I did not realise she would be filming in NYC !!!
Julia Roberts is spending $150,000 (£100,000) renting two houses in New York while she shoots a new movie in Manhattan this summer.
The actress will spend three months in the Big Apple shooting new movie Eat, Pray, Love – and has reserved two posh apartments in the West Village.
Roberts will live in one of the properties with husband Danny Moder and their kids Hazel, Phinnaeus and Henry, while the other two-bedroom pad is for their nanny and staff.
Animated Hit Goes Up, Up And Away
Animated movies are always such a hit 🙂
Animated comedy Up has stormed to the top of the U.S. box office, landing $44.5 million (£29.6 million) in ticket sales in its opening weekend.
The movie, starring Ed Asner as an elderly man who travels the world on a homemade balloon craft, narrowly beat out new release The Hangover, which defied critics’ expectations with earnings of $43.27 million (£28.8 million).
Will Ferrell’s Land of the Lost was the big weekend loser, taking a disappointing $19.5 million (£13 million) in its first weekend.
Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian and Star Trek round out the top five.
Not surprised to see Up taking the top spot. I know I still have to get my little brats out to the theater to see it as they keep asking me to take them.
