Jessica Biel Stars in New Darren Aronofsky-Directed Revlon Commercial

When we heard Darren Aronofsky was directing a Revlon commercial, we could only imagine the possibilities. Would it be a one-minute exposé on the human condition? Would we be subjected to an overdose a la 'Requiem for a Dream' or a triumphant 'Wrestler'-like story? Would it even make sense? Unfortunately, the ad seems to be like any other straightforward makeup commercial, just with a bit of an artsy twist.

 

Shot entirely in black and white, the 60-second spot stars actress Jessica Biel along with singer/rapper/producer Pharrell Williams, who also composed the music in the commercial. The ad begins with Biel in a black dress sitting on the bed of some high-end hotel as Pharrell walks down a long, dark hallway. Eventually, she puts on her Revlon Grow Luscious Plumping Mascara, which includes the requisite close-up on the label, as Pharrell steps into the hotel room.

LisaRaye shows her daughter, Kai, a little love.

*Actress and business woman LisaRaye is letting loose her maternal instincts by managing her daughter Kai’s budding career on the fashion runway while launching her own clothing line with PZI Jeans®, called The LisaRaye Collection.

In preparation for the launch this summer, LisaRaye came to Los Angeles to select models with curves to wear her signature white jeans – a brand that will fit the contour of women who have hips and small waists, without the dreaded gapping in the rear. The jeans will be available in sizes 4-18 and lengths short to extra long.

“Women need a jean like this because not all of us are a size 2 or a size 4 or a size 6 and we always have that problem in the waist,” said LisaRaye, who fell in love with the PZI brand from the moment she first tried a pair on. “These jeans FIT! I’m putting on my designer hat and I’m really excited about it!”

Meanwhile, daughter Kai is standing tall as the new face of the latest Apple Bottoms® by Nelly campaign for full-figured women. LisaRaye was by her side during her first photo shoot with celebrity photographer Derek Blanks to provide modeling tips to help her achieve the best shot.

“I’m actually supporting Kai and teaching her at the same time because mommy has been there, done that,” said LisaRaye. “I’m excited that she’s embraced her own curves and who she is. This is not something that I have given her. This is something that she is earning for herself and I’m very proud.”

Naomi Watts, Liev Schreiber, and Christina Hendricks Join the Boxing Biopic THE BLEEDER

Naomi Watts, Liev Schreiber and Christina Hendricks are set to star in the boxing drama The Bleeder. Per Variety, the film is based on the story of Chuck Wepner, the New Jersey heavyweight boxer who fought 15 rounds with Muhammad Ali and inspired to Sylvester Stallone to write Rocky. The biopic is the natural transition for documentary filmmaker Jeff Feuerzeig (The Devil and Daniel Johnston) to directing narrative features. Feuerzeig co-wrote the script with Jerry Stahl (Bad Boys II).



Studio home Hyde Park International is shopping The Bleeder at the Cannes Film Festival this week along with Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vegneance, The Double, Echelon, and Our Idiot Brother. If I were a billionaire cinephile hanging out in the French Riviera right now, I’d have a hard time passing up the Watts/Schreiber/Hendricks package. Hit the jump for more on Wepner.

Work of art: Naomi Campbell shows off her incredible figure

She's been a supermodel for more than a quarter of a century - and Naomi Campbell showed her still astonishing figure on thecatwalk at a fashion show in Moscow yesterday.

Naomi, who's 41 on May 22 and has been modelling since she was 15, was wearing an unforgiving white and grey all-in-one which made it look like her faultless curves had been painted.

The star was showing off her incredible body in a rare turn down the catwalk for Russian designer Igor Chapurin.

Wearing scyscraper platform peeptoe ankle boots with metal stiletto heels, the Amazonian beauty tore through sheets of brightly coloured tissue paper as she made her way down the runway in a walk that turned rather into performance art.
