Kristen Stewart and her mother Jules are friends of my husband Russell and also happen to live in our neighborhood.  He's worked with both mother and daughter on separate film projects: Kristen as an actress on "Zathura" and Jules as script supervisor on "The Flinstones in Viva Rock Vegas," and "The Flintstones." Jules has apparently moved on to directing now and Kristen,

It's fascinating to watch this old footage of Miley Cyrus we discovered online the other day. Especially to see how radically she's changed over such a relatively short period of time.  Disney is truely a star-making machine.  Miley was absolutely adorable, fresh and tom-boyish at this age; we completely understand why they hired her.

I’m ready for my close-up Mr. Phillips

I stumbled upon a blog entry this morning that’s a “must share, ” primarily because I don’t have time to really BLOG today. And I don’t really have time to blog today because I was busy reading other people’s blogs. Which is how I came about this blog post. Yes, it’s a vicious cycle. As

Okay. I’m sure some of you other Hollywood Moms have received casting notices that just don’t sit right with you. Perhaps one similar to the notice I just received calling for “Frightened Children?” The kind of casting notice where you think to yourself, “Mmm, perhaps it would be wise to Google this director/band/casting company/fill-in-the-blank prior
