News has been sparse to say the least.
More recently? Gatsby inspired a makeup line by Boots, the UK cosmetic line. The New York Daily News covers it here, but actual photos of the product are here, if anyone is in the market for eyeshadow between October and March.
Need to brush up on Gatsby film history before the movie hits? We have a link for that too courtesy of The San Diego Reader-although it’s not pro-Luhrmann by a long shot. Beyond this, everyone is stalling for time until the fall.
What about Django, you say? Well, Tarantino was at Comic Con with Django…okay, PART of Django, according to this site. Sadly, it seems Tarantino forgot to bring the clips with DiCaprio. Vanity Fair interviewed Jamie Foxx about the movie, and yes, he did remember to mention DiCaprio…but waxed more poetic about his horse, Cheetah.
I’m not joking. I wish I was. Did anyone attend Comic Con this year?
Because Leo did not. What was he doing? Eating out with Tobey Maguire at Cut, Las Vegas. People magazine states this included steak and a Raspberry Velvet cocktail with Grey Goose, which is made with raspberry puree and rosemary according the restaurant’s website. (Mr. DiCaprio, anytime you want to invite the staff here out for those, let us know; it’s been a warm summer.)
Other websites were less impressed with the details, sniffily commenting that Maguire is vegan and that DiCaprio’s manners may be in question when dining on steak in his friend’s presence. As it seems downright silly to insert ourselves into that fascinating little sidebar conversation of “hey, do you care if I eat what I want?” between two grown men who have known each other for years, we’re going to breeze past that. I’m guessing that if Mr. Maguire feels comfortable enough to let DiCaprio walk around town hand in hand with his toddler daughter, he’s probably already made peace with his friend’s life decisions.
In a further attempt to improve the world of journalism, Glamour magazine offered an opinion on Leo’s vacation fanny pack. Please bear in mind that the same page has a link to the hard hitting article, “The Dos and Don’ts of Frozen Yogurt.”
And sadly, that was the better article.
Have a great week everyone, and hopefully we’ve got more next week!
