Brad & Angie Overdose
6/6/05
http://www.nypost.com/business/45054.htm

As their movie is (mercifully!) released, it's time to turn the page on the Brad and Angelina melodrama.

The problem with "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" is that people may well be tired of reading the shadowy rumors of romantic exploits between its stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie by the time the flick is released. That is pretty much the problem with Entertainment Weekly's cover story on the making of the movie. With no new plot twists to shed light on the romantic inclinations of the co-stars, the story is a bit of a bore. Much more intoxicating is a profile on Kathleen Turner, who talks honestly about alcoholism and her roller-coaster career.

Jolie: Be Nice Or I??™ll Sue

First Amendment be damned! When Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie say they don't want to get personal, they mean it. Both stars are making journos who interview them sign a contract to that effect and if you break it, Jolie will sue you. Her lawyer, Robert Offer, sent out a letter stating: "Interviewer will not ask Ms. Jolie any questions regarding her personal relationships. In the event Interviewer does ask Ms. Jolie any questions regarding her personal relationships, Ms. Jolie will have the right to immediately terminate the interview and leave. The interview may only be used to promote the Picture. In no event may Interviewer be entitled to run all or any portion of the Interview in connection with any other story . . . The interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning or derogatory to Ms. Jolie." If an interviewer does not comply, he or she can be sued for an "undisclosed" amount, the document states. Pitt, meanwhile, noted in his contract with the journos that he's willing to talk about his charity work as well as the movie. Luckily, director Doug Liman gives juicy interviews and is not afraid to talk about Jolie and Pitt's "chemistry."

Hearts introduces weekend magazine
First National Lifestyle Magazine to Celebrate Weekend Living
NEW YORK, June 6, 2005 -- The nine-to-five workday no longer exists as Job responsibilities and home life have melded together. As a result, now more than ever, Americans live for the weekend. To help them make the most of their time off each week, Hearst Magazines introduces Weekend, the first lifestyle magazine entirely dedicated to weekend living, announces Cathleen P. Black, president of Hearst Magazines. Weekend hits newsstands nationwide on June 14 with a distribution of 500,000 copies and a cover price of $3.99. Editor-in-Chief Susan Wyland, former editor of Lifetime, Real Simple and Martha Stewart Living, has created Weekend as a lifestyle magazine encompassing every aspect of weekend life, including food and entertaining, travel, decorating, organizing and ideas on how to spend your personal time, whether at home or away. The premier issue will be followed by a second issue in mid-August. "With Susan's vision and strong lifestyle background, we knew we could create a beautiful, inspiring, and informational guide that would help people maximize every moment between Friday night and Monday morning," says Black. "Our 24/7 lives need a break on the weekend to help us restore and reconnect." The magazine is divided into two sections -- "Weekend at Home" and "Weekend Away" -- plus a feature well. "Weekend at Home" covers shopping, cooking, easy weekend projects, technology, organizing, and how to learn to do something new. "Weekend Away" features great getaways around the country, day trips, road trips, 3-day adventures, real estate and fashion. The feature well includes weekend homes, travel, entertaining, recipes, and decorating. "When we started developing the concept for Weekend, we realized that people needed to read several magazines -- travel, epicurean and lifestyle -- to find great ideas on how to spend their weekends. By the time they finished reading, it was Sunday night already," says Wyland. Weekend will be a one-stop resource on what to do during the 48 hours each week we can truly call our own.
