Meryl Streep

SOMEDAY WE WILL ALL KNOW HOW TO PRONOUNCE SAOIRSE RONAN’S NAME

Saoirse Ronan arrived at a morning show in London to discuss her movie Little Women, and she’s appropriately attired in pajamas. (Even SHE pronounces her name in several ways – depending who she’s talking to) She’s only 25, but Saoirse has already been nominated for THREE Oscars and she won Best Actress for Brooklyn (which we LOVED) a few years ago. Little Women got her a Golden Globe nomination this year, but Renee Zellweger will be hard to beat. People are already calling Saoirse the next Meryl Streep , and we have to agree.

HEIDI KLUM: DID SHE KNOW MORE (ABOUT HARVEY) THAN MERYL STREEP ?

Heidi Klum manages to keep a smile on her face in spite of inevitable problems ahead, due to her close relationship with Harvey Weinstein. It’s now common knowledge that Weinstein, who was Executive Producer of Heidi’s Lifetime show Project Runway, used his Runway connection to set up “casting meetings” with models. Many of these models have come forward with lurid details about his behavior. It’s impossible to imagine that, over the years, Heidi never heard ANY complaints about Weinstein. A SHE KNEW poster of Heidi is a likely follow-up to the posters of Meryl Streep plastered all over Hollywood.

AG087826_09gummers

Two of Meryl Streep’s three lookalike daughters turned up for the premier of mom’s new movie “Suffragette.” It’s a British drama about the feminist movement in the late 19th and early 20th century and – hooray- it’s directed by a WOMAN (Sarah Gavron.) Mamie Gummer, 32, above left, is making a good living as an actress – TV series, movies, and onstage. Louisa, 24, is working as a model signed with the IMG agency in NY. Side by side, they look like Good Girl and Bad Girl. Unfortunately, it looks like Mamie is wearing one of her mother’s sensible outfits.

AMERICAN MERYL STREEP IS STARRING AS BRITISH PRIME MINISTER MARGARET THATCHER

It’s about time. British actors are often cast to play iconic American figures, but Americans are seldom cast to play important Brits. Meryl Streep (above left) has changed all that. With all the amazing English actresses out there, our own Meryl Streep landed the heroic role of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. The movie is called “The Iron Lady” and it is described as “The story of a woman who smashed through barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male dominated world.” Judging by the photo, Meryl’s off to a good start.

CHER HAD A REUNION WITH “SILKWOOD” COSTAR MERYL STREEP AT THE AFI AWARDS

Cher showed up at the AFI Awards honoring Mike Nichols in her trademark goth look – chains, layers of fishnet, a little black leather, and a perky wig. She just finished her movie “Burlesque” and starts “The Drop-out” with Johnny Knoxville next. Cher and Meryl Streep had a laugh reminiscing about the movie “Silkwood” they did together, which was directed by Nichols.
