After flirting with the edge since 2008, 2011 is when you went global. 2012 is poised to be more of the same, with Haywire next month, and Prometheus in the summer, and filming 12 Years a Slave with Steve McQueen.

Amazingness Mimi’s kidney failure Here’s a photo Mariah Carey posted on her Twitter and her website: her husband Nick Cannon has been hospitalised for “mild kidney failure”.

Movie Reviews and Previews David Fincher movies I was quick to jump on the US Girl With The Dragon Tattoo movie bandwagon after the first trailers were released. I was ready to love it.

Baby and Bump Obsession No Paris for Posh David Beckham was supposed to sign with Paris Saint-Germain and play in Europe again.
