Newlywed Natalie Portman flashes sparkling ring after marrying her Black Swan love

Newlywed Natalie Portman proudly flashed her wedding ring while on a sunshine stroll in Los Angeles yesterday.

The Black Swan actress, 31, was dressed casually in jeans and a neon T-shirt for an outing with a friend, but all eyes were on her bling.

She debuted her engagement ring at the Oscars last February and  appears to have added a diamond wedding band following the nuptials.

Natalie and French-born choreographer Benjamin Millepied tied the knot in a Jewish ceremony at a private home near Big Sur in California on August 4.

The Jewish ceremony was held under a chuppah in front of just 60 guests - including Diane Sawyer, Ivanka Trump, Macaulay Culkin and Rashida Jones.

The wedding banquet was strictly vegan in keeping with the bride's diet.

Natalie wore a simple tea-length cocktail designed by Rodarte.

The pair met on the set of Black Swan and welcomed their first child, son Aleph, into the world 13 months ago.

When Natalie won the Best Actress Oscar for Black Swan in 2011, she paid tribute to Benjamin, calling him her 'beautiful love' and thanked him for giving her the 'most important role of my life'.

At this year's Academy Awards there was speculation they had already tied the knot as they both wore bands on their wedding ring fingers.

The secret ambition of Sonakshi Sinha

As a college student, Sonakshi Sinha wanted to sing songs and take part in a music reality show, but couldn't fulfil her dream.
 "When started for the first time, I was in college. I was very much interested to go for Indian Idol and sing songs. Unfortunately, I remained as a bathroom singer," Sonakshi said here.

The 25-year-old realised half her wish at least when she visited the sets of the show's sixth season recently to promote her forthcoming film Joker.

"I am delighted that I've come for this show. I've got an amazing opportunity to meet the fantastic singers and hear their songs," she said.

Sonakshi will be seen in a forthcoming episode of the show.

Salman Khan's Ek Tha Tiger gets massive opening at Chennai Box Office

Chennai: Salman Khan's Ek Tha Tiger has got an earth-shattering opening in Chennai. The movie, which is released in 45 screens in Tamil Nadu, ran to packed houses in and around the city.

Traders say that as there were no big Tamil releases, Ek Tha Tiger was grandly welcomed by Tamil audience. It is noted that very rarely a Hindi movie gets such an opening in the state, as the Bollywood movies are still not so popular in Tamil Nadu.

While Ek Tha Tiger did an amazing business in and around Chennai, the other regions got decent response, say traders. The Salman Khan starrer movie is distributed by Sathyam Cinema and it is released in 20 screens in Chennai alone. In the recent times, Shahrukh Khan's Ra.One and Akshay Kumar's Rowdy Rathore, the Hindi version of Siruthai, did notable business at the Chennai Box Office.


Watch the movie review of EK THA TIGER

The theatres across the country screening Ek Tha Tiger were overflowing with movie buffs within and outside in the morning shows. In many places, the theatre owners had to call the police to control the mob. Trade analysts have already predicted that Ek Tha Tiger would collect Rs 27 to 30 crores nett on the first day.

Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif starrer Ek Tha Tiger is an out-and-out action entertainer. It is directed by Kabir Khan and produced by Yash Raj Films. Sathyam Cinemas is distributing the movie in Tamil Nadu.

‘Ek Tha Tiger’ Review: Kabir Khan fails to impress; film thoroughly disappointing

What would you expect when Salman Khan, Kabir Khan and Yash Raj Films team up- a super masala entertainer, right?

‘Ek Tha Tiger’ looked very promising prior to its release and the film does entertain you to an extent but also compels you to wonder if you truly want to ridicule your intelligence.

After ‘Wanted’, ‘Dabangg’ and ‘Bodyguard’, ‘Ek Tha Tiger’ - yet another Eid release of Salman Khan - might just make it to the Rs100 crore club, courtesy his incredible fan following and an intriguing first half. But the film sadly falls in the same trap like other Salman films which lack content.

Salman Khan plays Tiger, a code name given to him by Research & Analysis Wing (RAW) of India. But the role of an intelligence officer has been manipulated to the core to befit a masala entertainer!

After a successful mission in Iraq, Tiger is now entrusted with the task of collecting external intelligence by spying on a Trinity College Professor, who has apparently been approached by the ISI for sharing missile technology secrets.

Tiger flies down to Dublin, the Irish capital, to follow the Professor. And that is where he ends up meeting his ladylove (Zoya) Katrina Kaif, the professor’s residence caretaker. Tiger introduces himself as Manish Chandra, a writer, and seeks her help in getting an appointment with the professor.

Zoya extends all possible help to a shelter-less Manish and befriends him. And that is when seeds of romance are sowed!

Though Tiger knows that he is on a mission and he dare not fall in love, he loses his heart to Zoya, who could act as a catalyst in providing information about the professor. Tiger is constantly reminded of his duties by Gopi (Ranvir Shorey), his colleague, not to lose his heart while on a mission but he does approve of Tiger’s choice of a Bhabhi for him!

Zoya, who also happens to be a dance instructor, invites Tiger for a show and here is where you would find a twist in the tale!

After an incredible ‘Kabul Express’ and somewhat gritty `New York`, a masala entertainer like ETT wasn’t expected from director Kabir Khan. Yash Raj Films has certainly spent a whopping amount on the exotic locations that are a treat to watch but haven’t helped the film gain a cult status.

However, the film does have superbly directed action sequences, foot-tapping songs by Sohail Sen and Sajid-Wajid, and a tinge of Salman Khan`s special comedy that does make you cheer.

And mostly importantly, though Salman and Katrina deny being in a relationship in real life, their chemistry onscreen looks every bit convincing. And the duo is an absolute delight to the eyes!

But over all, the film does disappoint you for it fails to deliver what it promised.

If you are a Salman Khan fan, you would love it for sure and the movie might rake-in the moolah because of the superstar! It will certainly entertain you if you leave your brains outside the theatre!

Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes Planning On Taking Daughter Suri To First Day Of School Together

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are planning on taking their daughter Suri to school together for her first day in a couple of weeks, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

"Tom has been filming his latest movie in London but has made plans to be in New York for Suri's first day of school, which will be after Labor Day," a source close to the former couple tells Radar. "Tom and Katie have been speaking on the telephone regarding Suri and Katie has been very supportive of Tom wanting to be there when Suri goes to her new school for the first time.

"It's a big moment in Suri's life and Katie wants Tom to be a part of that. Of course, there will be security concerns and Tom doesn't want to disrupt other parents and students at the school with his presence, which means he very well could slip in and out via a back entrance. Katie doesn't want Suri to suffer because of their divorce and both parents are truly putting the needs of their little girl ahead of their own feelings."

As we previously reported, Holmes has no regrets about filing for divorce and has been "blissfully happy" since making the life changing decision. “She’s been enjoying the company of her family a lot more, something she couldn’t really do when she was married to Tom. He controlled who she saw and he often wasn’t so approving of her family," an insider previously told Radar.


"Katie's desire for Suri to enroll in school was one of the main reasons why she decided to split from Tom. Tom's two children with Nicole Kidman were home schooled by Scientology tutors and he wanted the same for Suri. However, Katie had completely different plans and has already enrolled Suri in an elite private school. Tom doesn't like it, but he has reluctantly accepted this is the way it's going to be and will absolutely be a big part of Suri's life at school. Both Tom and Katie will take part in parent/teacher conferences and other school activities that Suri will become involved in," the insider says.

Kate Moss - astrophysicist?

Kate Moss is fascinated by advanced mathematics and science — in particular astrophysics and quantum theory.

The 38-year-old model has been hanging around with the likes of Professor Brian Cox (44).

Formerly the keyboardist in Nineties band D:Ream - known for the original version of 'Things Can Only Get Better' — particle physicist Brian said he recently met the supermodel at a party.

Apparently she asked him all sorts of questions about outer space and claimed she knew quite a lot about the often considered difficult subject.

He told the Daily Mail newspaper: "Kate was asking me some extraordinarily detailed things about the universe. She really knows her stuff.

"She also had some questions from her daughter Lila Grace which were pretty complicated. I was impressed."

Apparently Kate and her nine-year-old daughter are obsessed with Brian's shows, especially his recent programme 'Wonders Of The Universe', which sought to answer difficult questions of why humans are here on Earth and where we come from.

Kate said Brian's television show fascinated her and now she can't stop contemplating the strange mysteries of the cosmos.

Suri Cruise Loves a Good Black & Tan ... German Shepard

Suri Cruise was drunk ON FUN this weekend ... she hit up a Build-A-Bear shop with the lady she calls her mother, Katie Holmes, but instead of building a bear ... she built a German Shepard. JA!

The littlest Cruise was out shopping at the Westfield Franklin Park Mall in Toledo, OH on Sunday ... when she and Tom Cruise's ex hit up the Build-A-Bear workshop for kicks and giggles, JA!

Sources on scene tell TMZ ... after perusing the options, the mini Cruise ditched the bears and picked out an 18" black & tan German Shepard instead ... which Build-A-Bear says "will bring a lifetime of love and hugs!" JA!

The fun didn't stop there ... we're told Suri chose the name "Sara" for  the pooch's "birth certificate" ... but was adamant that "Sara" be spelled using ONLY four letters ... because "Suri"  has just four letters too.

Good thinking mini cruise. JA!

Movie Review: Ek THA TIGER


 Cast: Salman Khan as Tiger, Katrina Kaif as Zoya, Ranvir Shorey as Gopi, Girish Karnad as Shenoy


Director: Kabir Khan

Producer: Aditya Chopra

Music Director: Sohail Sen , Sajid Ali , Wajid Ali

Lyricst: Neelesh Misra

 
"Maine jo ek baar committment kar di, toh main apni bhi nahi sunta"- believe in the tiger's words, he has fulfilled his committment. Salman Khan does it once again with the year's most-awaited movie Ek Tha Tiger, that has released today. Directed by Kabir Khan, Ek Tha Tiger, that features Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif, is an action, spy thriller, with a dose of romance too. The film has been making headlines ever since it was conceptualised. And if the promos of the movie is any indication, Ek Tha Tiger has all the ingredients to make it to the top five movies of the year.

What is the story all about?


Ek Tha Tiger is a romantic thriller that revolves around the story of a Trinity College scientist, suspected of selling missile technology secrets to Pakistan. The Indian government sends a secret agent, codenamed Tiger (Salman Khan) to find out about the professor's activities. Tiger gradually falls in love with the professor's caretaker Zoya (Katrina Kaif), who is studying at a fictional dance academy. The film engages you strongly with several twists and turns. What happens next? Will Tiger gain victory in his mission or will love take an upper hand? Katrina conceals her real identity behind her barbie doll face. What's that? Will that endanger Tiger's mission?

Verdict on performances:

Termed as the mass entertainer, Salman Khan needs no verdict on his acting skills. What makes us love him in the movie is his rugged Tiger-like attitude, that suits him the best. Salman gets into the skin of his raw, rugged, edgy character and makes you admire over his marvellous performance.

When Kabir Khan claimed that everyone will get to see Katrina Kaif's acting potential in the film, it wasn't just a mere statement. He meant it and Kats did it. For all those who believe, Katrina is nothing, but, just a pretty face, Ek Tha Tiger is the answer for them. Katrina Kaif, not only looks super stunning in the movie, but, the girl proves that she's no less in acting as well. The girl definitely gets a thumbs up for her improvised hindi diction and good performance in Ek Tha Tiger.

Ek Tha Tiger, high on action:

The film starts with some heavy dose of action and introduces you with the Tiger Khan. Salman's entry in the film is sure to give you goosebumps. Khan's kingly and smashing entry is just wow and makes you say, "The real tiger is back with a bang." The action sequences in Ek Tha Tiger looks real yet, retains the element of larger-than-life heroism. Katrina Kaif is a surprise here. She is much more than just a barbie doll. Katrina lives up to Salman's Tiger image, with some good action, which is generally not expected from a sweet, petite girl.

Positives:
The second half is gripping. Ek Tha Tiger will rock because of two strong points- good story and Salman's action packed performance, which is completely different from his other movies. On the other hand, despite the alleged break up, Salman and Katrina haven't lost an iota of the chemistry, that makes them Bollywood's ultimate power couple, which they have proved in Ek Tha Tiger. The comfort zone that the couple have shared in the second half of the movie, makes their romance look genuine and real. Ek Tha Tiger gives us the larger than life picture, with some beautiful and exotic scenaries.

Negatives: Katrina Kaif could have worked more on her facial expressions. The first half lacks passion and romance. In fact, at times, romance looks very dull and lacklustre between Salman and Katrina. The film leaves a big question that how can the Indian Government leave Tiger (Salman), a RAW agent so easily? What's more illogical is that how can such a tough RAW agent fall for a girl so easily, especially when he is on a mission?

Verdict: Ek tha Tiger gets a thumbs up. Ek Tha Tiger leaves a strong message on this Independence day. The film conveys that love goes beyond border. No matter if it's India or Pakistan, love and friendship always an upper hand.
