Imagine if Fergie is the one that gets nominated... kind of like Latifah's nomination (pop/music star nomination).

I can't see Rob Marshall winning BP with two musicals in a row. However I could see it sliding into the Benjamin Button/Gangs of New York/Master and Commander strong runner-up with 10 noms+, slot.

What Cruz is wearing = Costume Design winner already, lol.

They're not showing, Loyal.

I cry, at some point, on many days. It can be over music or dance or a performance. I may cry over a letter or a memory. I had to go to Abbey Road Studios in London to record a song for a new musical film, Nine, and I was crying. It was the first time I had to sing in my life. I also cried with joy when I first met Sophia Loren on Nine. She is incredible and has been a true heroine of mine. When I say I love her, I mean that. She tells me all her wonderful stories about Federico Fellini and Marcello Mastroianni and her amazing life. She is 74 and I am lucky to know such a wonderful woman as a good friend. She has been very loving with me, too. I cried on the day we had to say goodbye, at the end of her filming. But we are going to meet again, in Rome, and this fills me with pleasure.

Music is my key. That is my passion. It opens a door for me so quickly. I listen to music every day. It includes Radiohead, opera and flamenco. The man to move me to tears is Caetano Veloso, from Brazil. He in his sixties and is a beautiful poet, so talented and one of the best musicians in the world. If I am feeling too emotional, I do not want to hear anything. I cry easily and his music would make me cry more.

Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz and Nicole Kidman's new film Nine is going sweep the board during the 2010 awards season, according to movie producer Harvey Weinstein.

The film - based on the Broadway musical about film director Guido Contini and the many women in his life - has only
just finished shooting, but with an all-star cast including Marion Cotillard, Judi Dench, Sophia Loren, Kate Hudson and Black Eyed Pea Fergie it is set to dazzle.

Harvey, who watched the latest film gongs being handed out at the 2009 Baftas in London, was asked if Nine would be out for awards season next year. He said: "Oh yeah, most definitely. You'll see a lot of nominations. You'll see a lot of dancing too. Really, this is a great musical, a lot of great musical numbers. "It's directed by Rob Marshall. We won the Oscar for Chicago; hopefully we'll get in the arena again."

The producer also revealed that even with all those women on set, there were no divas or clashes of personality, and everyone became friends.

He said: "It's an amazing cast and they all became amazing friends and normally that doesn't happen. Normally those sets are turf wars but this is a complete sisterhood and great brotherhood by Daniel Day-Lewis."
Penelope said: "It's an amazing group of actresses and Daniel is an angel, he's so patient and kind. This movie has been very special.

"The singing was the scary thing because I have never done that before but I have loved every second of this movie."

I wonder how much of an issue will the names be, being they're similar to one another. Luisa/Liliane/Carla/Claudia. Silly things tend to bother people the most.
