Henry VIII

"The Tudors" starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers is a 10 part television series that depicts the life of Henry the VIII., it is the story of the British Monarch who was very well known for beheading his wives. The historical aspect of the series is on point but surprisingly there are no battles with him fighting against some type of higher power. The Story is mainly about Henry VIII and his life as a British Monarch. Golden Globe winner Jonathan Rhys Meyers is said to give a stellar performance in this much anticipated series which airs on Showtime April 1.

Pitt and Murphy disappointment at the Oscars

Brad Pitt bailed on Sunday nights Academy awards. With a nomination for "Babel" for best picture and a nomination for " The Departed" which he helped produce, everyone wondered why he was a no show. Even though he was not personally nominated for an award everyone wondered why he did not come to the awards to support his movies and his fellow nominees. Apparently he was in New Orleans filming his new movie " The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." His co-star in this new F. Scott Fitzgerald remake Cate Blanchett was at the awards so it makes you wonder why he did not show. Maybe after all of the comments made about him and wife Angelina Jolie at the Golden Globes made him not want to make another public appearance.

Eddie Murphy was on hand to support his movie "Dreamgirls." He was nominated for best supporting actor, when he lost to Alan Arkin for "Little Miss Sunshine" Murphy was very upset. After the award was given out Eddie Murphy apparently left the his seat and never returned to the ceremony. He was so mad that he did not even bother to show up to any of the after parties. I thought he would stay and support his co-star Jennifer Hudson.
