Actress Astronaut Wives blondes Celebs Charlize Theron Gattaca Guru Jay Hancock Hollywood Kill Bill LookAlikes Mad Max Models Movies net worth Pulp Fiction Sean Penn South African Uma Thurman

Charlize Theron Vs. Uma Thurman: Battle of the Blondes

BY: GURU JAY
In a recent story, I wrote about the Astronaut’s Wives Club. Coincidentally, Charlize Theron starred in a movie called the Astronaut’s Wife. There’s one blonde in Astronaut Wives Club, Yvonne Strahovski, and she leads the way.

Charlize Theron plays Will Smith’s estranged wife in Hancock. The South African actress helps define beauty. Her long hair was more than gorgeous.
You like Charlize because she’s flexible. She stretches roles like in a Pilates video.
You can’t say enough about Uma Thurman. She is fantastic in Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill. Have you seen Gattaca? The actress is literally perfect in it. It’s one of my favorite movies starring lead actor Ethan Hawke.
I wonder if it is possible to transpose actor’s characters. Can you imagine Theron under Quentin Tarantino’s direction? Better even, what if Charlize worked with John Travolta?

Uma has done all those things. That’s why she has an advantage. But the war is still going on, and there will be many battles to come.
You see Charlize has a net worth of $110 million, compared to Uma’s $45 million. Why is this the case? Well, Theron has an entire industrialized nation behind her.
When you’re the most famous South African celebrity, you call some big shots. Plus, your marriage to Sean Penn dramatically assisted your career accolades. Also, considering Charlize is 39 to Uma’s 45, she has an age advantage.

At 5’ 10” Charlize Theron has the ideal figure of a fashion model. Plus, the green-eyed chick possessed natural blonde hair. However, at almost 40, is it possible she shed her locks because it’s turning gray? Still, the Mad Max: Fury Road actor is sexy as hell.
And so is Uma Thurman. If you met them in person, could you distinguish the two celebs? Or is it impossible to tell the difference like Jennifer Garner and Hilary Swank?
I like Charlize’s body better. But I appreciate Uma’s body of work more. If Tarantino is the top R-rated director, then Thurman is his most prized possession.

In a nutshell, Charlize Theron and Uma Thurman are high quality movie stars. It’s all a matter of preferences. Which blonde do you prefer?

A list Academy Awards Actors B list Ben Affleck brunettes Celebs Entertainment Guru Jay Hilary Swank Hollywood hot Jennifer Garner LookAlikes Million Dollar Baby Movies Sexy show business Stars

Hollywood LookAlikes: Hilary Swank Vs. Jennifer Garner

BY: GURU JAY

Believe it or not, Hilary Swank and Jennifer Garner are not the same person. These Hollywood lookalikes are frequently mistaken for one another. If you’re ever confused, just remember Garner married Ben Affleck. Plus, Jennifer stands 2 inches taller than Hilary.
Through the years, Swank received better roles because she’s prettier. They are both B+ list actresses. However, I’ve heard Garner is easier to work with. But, Hilary plays it cool and makes up for her flaws.
Appearances can trick you. Hollywood is a strange and funny place. How many beautiful people come through town and leave disappointed? Even a perfect audition is no guarantee.
In show business, your best may not be good enough. Still, keep getting better like Jessica Alba. Sooner than later, everyone will recognize you; and, you won’t get ignored.
I like when Swank and Garner play soldiers or spies. Both brunettes give and take excruciating pain. Though, I believe Jennifer is tougher. Wouldn’t you rather see Garner in Million Dollar Baby instead of Swank?

Listen, I’m not trying to take away from Hilary’s accomplishments. We’ve seen this actress put on amazing performances. All I am saying is that Jennifer’s career was stalled, because executives screwed up her story.
For instance, did you know Jennifer Garner was born in Houston? Her family relocated to West Virginia, then Canada. Moreover, Hilary hails from Nebraska, although she spent most of her teenage years in Seattle for High School.

Can you believe the Hollywood lookalikes have an identical net worth of $40 million apiece? Keep in mind Hilary is three years younger. So, she’ll probably be richer in the future.

Can you tell the difference between the actresses? Do you think the celebrities ever pass themselves off as each other? What are your favorite Hilary Swank and Jennifer Garner movies? Who is the better actor?

Actress Celebs Comic Con drama Emma Emma Roberts Emma Stone Emma Watson Entertainment Guru Jay Harry Potter Hollywood hot Jane Austen Julia Roberts most Twitter followers Movies Romantic Comedies Sexy

Emma Watson, Emma Stone, and Emma Roberts: Who Is the Best Emma?

BY: GURU JAY
  
In my school days, I read Jane Austen’s Emma. Did you know Clueless is loosely based on Emma? What is it about that name?

Emma Watson is the most followed actor on Twitter. I don’t count singers or Bollywood stars in my Top 10 list. It wouldn’t surprise me if she were more famous than Prince William.
The precious Emma Stone plays sexy and funny characters in romantic comedies. You’ll find she’s a main attraction at Comic Con. This Emma understands chemistry and psychology.
Last but not least, Emma Roberts has learnt from the best. Her aunt is the one and only Julia Roberts. Plus, Emma is a smiling Mona Lisa in her own right.
Who’s waiting for a movie starring Emma Watson and featuring Stone and Roberts? The film would practically sell itself. Let’s make it happen.

Of the three, I feel Stone is the better actress. However, because of Harry Potter, Watson receives the most glory. Unfortunately, many people unfairly view Roberts as entitled just because of her surname.
Of the three, Roberts is hotter to me. But, Watson’s bubbling personality wins me over.
You see Stone seems the wittier and funniest of the bunch. She could compete with Amy Schumer’s standup skills. Also, I like Stone because she isn’t scared of her shadow.
Listen, Roberts is more laidback and easygoing. If you want peace of mind, go with her. She only causes drama when they pay her to.

Frankly, Watson feels fragile and soft. Most men like delicate creatures. Plus, the cheerful Watson can charm a toad.
In 10 years, the name Emma could be the most popular Hollywood first name. Can you imagine by then, how many social media fans they’ll have altogether? They have unimaginable brand and star power potential.
I admire all of their acting. They are disciplined, which brings me to my final question. Who is the best Emma?

Actors Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt Bradley Cooper Celebs Channing Tatum Guru Jay Halle Berry Hollywood Squares Hunger Games Jennifer Lawrence Magic Mike XXL Marilyn Monroe Movies NSFW Oscars sex symbols

Channing Tatum, Jennifer Lawrence, and the Center Hollywood Squares

BY: GURU JAY

  
Right now, Channing Tatum and Jennifer Lawrence are entertainment’s most marketable names. Lawrence will soon replace Marilyn Monroe as the perfect sex symbol. And Channing Tatum will become the new Brad Pitt.
Oddly enough, Pitt’s wife Angelina was the last actress to receive universal approval. Before her, the Hollywood obsession was Halle Berry. Today, it’s time for Jennifer to shine. Moreover, I feel there’s something special about Jennifer.
Have you seen White House Down? In this movie, Secret Agent Tatum saves President Foxx and the world over. It is one of the actor’s best films because he goes in hard.
Various reports reveal Jennifer Lawrence turned down a date with Prince Harry. Do you understand the logic? Would you have gone out with him 1 time?
Magic Mike and Hunger Games are cash cows because of Tatum’s and Lawrence’s involvement. Without them, the movies wouldn’t even have sequels. Remember Jennifer and Channing command top dollar because they’re top talent.

These movie stars can seduce anybody. They exhibit charisma even while sleeping. What is more, Lawrence and Tatum reverse the script.
I recommend seeing the Silver Linings Playbook a second time. Jennifer Lawrence won an Oscar for it. Unfortunately, the Academy snubbed her costar Bradley Cooper.
There was a game show called Hollywood Squares. You can watch its reruns on the Game Show Network. It starred celebrities such as Whoopi Goldberg, Gilbert Gottfried, Kathy Griffin, and the late Joan Rivers. Plus, Tom Bergeron served as host for 6 years.
There were 9 squares and cast members. The celebrities occupied a square resembling a cubicle. The game was played on a squared tic-tac-toe board with X’s and O’s. To get your marks, the celebrity helped you answer questions.
The center square was reserved for the elite. It was a subtle acknowledgement of their standing. Ellen DeGeneres, Alec Baldwin, and Simon Cowell all sat in this square. Surely, Channing Tatum and Jennifer Lawrence are the center Hollywood squares right now.

action Actors Celebs Chinese Expendables Fearless fighting Forbidden Kingdom Guru Jay Hollywood Jackie Chan Jet Li Karate Kung Fu Martial Arts Movies Rush Hour Stars Tai Chi Tuxedo

Jackie Chan Vs. Jet Li + Your Favorite Martial Arts Movies

BY: GURU JAY
  
You must acquire a taste for foreign films like coffee and beer. Turning on subtitles is not the worst thing in the world, nor the most interesting. But, I prefer reading words, because as a writer I live in words. I enjoy seeing scripts come alive.

Bruce Lee passed the torch to Kung Fu masters and movie stars, Jackie Chan and Jet Li. There is a reason why Li and Chan are Expendables. Today, self-defense is integral to the action movie genre.
What is more, Chan and Li are true teachers of their mastery. Learning self-defense improves the body, and sharpens the mind. Like athletes, movie stars must dedicate time to nurture their gifts and talents.
I like Jackie Chan because he can do comedy. I recommend watching all three Rush Hours, because funnyman Chris Tucker is literally Chan’s sidekick.
Jet Li doesn’t speak English nearly as well as Jackie Chan. Plus, the average spectator has watched more Chan films than Li. Is Jet jealous of Jackie?

The media rolls out the red carpet for The Tuxedostar. But, they treat The Fearlessactor like Rodney Dangerfield. He “gets no respect.”
If Jackie Chan is 1st, Jet Li is a close 2nd. Actually, don’t discount Jet, because he has tons of fans globally. Plus, Jet likes his privacy protected.
Seeing Jackie and Jet square off is worth $50.
I believe Jet Li is faster, but Jackie Chan is better. Still, avoid starting a fight with either one of them at all costs. They will finish you.
Isn’t it ironic martial artists are peaceful? Although Karate can be violent, seeking a nonviolent solution is usually preferable. Why don’t you try Tai Chi?
When will a big name Japanese or Korean star emerge on the movie fight scene? Do you believe Jackie Chan is over 60? Also, I learned Jet Li is a singer.

Back to story à The Forbidden Kingdom stars both Jackie Chan and Jet Li. It’s incredible they carry out their own stunts. Maybe, that keeps them young.
Do Li and Chan need bodyguards on their payrolls? How much of their fighting displays are just for show? Can they do all that in real life?
Could they defeat Steven Seagal, Jean-Claude Van Damme, or Michael Jai White in an everything-goes battle? What are your favorite martial arts movies?

Where Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens Are Now

BY: GURU JAY
Disclaimer
Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron are walking a tightrope because they’re at a crucial point in their careers. Hopefully, Hudgens and Efron won’t lose their sex appeal to hardcore drugs. Still, Hollywood entices young stars to live carelessly. A wise chief said: don’t judge a man until you walk two moons in his moccasins.

Photogenic Vanessa Hudgens receives a lot of attention on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. There isn’t one bad picture of Vanessa floating around in cyberspace. Have you even seen her face without makeup?
Picture Vanessa Hudgens giving free hugs to 1,000 people. Hudgens and more celebs should go out of their way to interact with fans. What does it take to acknowledge followers?

Why isn’t Zac Efron in Magic Mike 2? Would Zac outshine Channing Tatum?
Right now, the High School Musical stars could have graduated with doctoral degrees. Efron and Hudgens are in transitional periods. If Hollywood stars practice patience as a virtue, and make time for rehearsals, they will succeed in whatever endeavor. If they get lazy and rest on their laurels, then failure is always an option.

Efron and Hudgens must prove themselves again as adults. How many child stars lose is it as grownups? Fortunately, Zac and Vanessa are multi-talented. If acting doesn’t pan out for them, they can turn to music.
Many prominent entertainers perform on Broadway. My main advice to celebrities is: don’t land on Dancing with the Stars until you’re 50th birthday. Dancing with the Stars targets washed-up has-beens. Nobody really wants to be on the show except for the overpaid judges.

Don’t get me wrong. It’s a watchable program. But, Hudgens and Efron bring more to the table. I can see Vanessa in romantic comedies and scary movies. I can imagine Zac as a science fiction and fantasy actor.

As long as you’re educated, your future tends to be bright. Don’t forget the best education is experience.

Actors brand Celebs Cover Girl Desperate Housewives Entertainment Eva Longoria Frontera Guru Jay Hollywood Hot Pursuit Latinas Modern Family Movies sitcoms Sofia Vergara Star Power TV

Sofía Vergara, Eva Longoria, and Brand/ Star Power

BY: GURU JAY
  
Warning
How dirty is Hollywood’s politics? How shady is Hollywood’s business? Are you sure you want to work in this entertainment industry?

Sofía Vergara is a bigger brand but Eva Longoria is a brighter star. There is a clear distinction between brand and star power. The brand will last long after the star has burnt out.
Did you know Vergara gets paid to drink Diet Pepsi? Also, Sofía stars in Rooms to Go commercials. Plus, she is a Cover Girl.

Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Pressley, and Bob Marley died but their image and likeness lives on through merchandising. I respect Sofía Vergara’s brand and marketing. Sources say Vergara has a net worth of $85 million and counting. In comparison, estimates put Eva Longoria’s value at $35 million.
I wonder sometimes whether Longoria realizes her star power, because she’s seriously underutilizing her famous name. Nonetheless, I applaud the celebrity’s charitable activities. What is more, I believe her philanthropy is making a difference.
By no means is Eva the perfect role model. However, she gladly confronts challenging issues. Plus, Eva seems humble.

I like Sofía but she appears overconfident. Nobody is above the law of Father Time. At some point beauty fades fast. I’m not saying Vergara can’t act, but Longoria is better.
Doesn’t Sofía deserve recognition for Modern Family? The Colombian-American plays her part terrifically. Latinos should embrace Vergara with open arms. It’s amazing the highest paid TV star is Latina.
I consider Longoria and Vergara the TV version of Cameron Diaz and Jessica Alba. Like Diaz and Alba, they are both dazzling and in high demand. So, why aren’t Eva and Sofía in more movies?

I’ve heard Hot Pursuit starring Reese Witherspoon and Sofía Vergara is giggle-filled. Furthermore, Frontera is some of Eva Longoria’s best work. Do you see why Sofía and Eva are the best Latina actresses?
