On Friday author J.K. Rowling revealed that one of the characters of her novel is gay! You might have heard by now that Hogwarts headmaster Albus Dumbledore fancied his rival Gellert Grindelwald who was later offed in a battle between the good and bad wizards.
“Falling in love can blind us to an extent,” Rowling said of Dumbledore’s feelings, adding that Dumbledore was “horribly, terribly let down” and that his love was a “great tragedy.”
J.K. Rowling was here in Toronto on Tuesday for a book signing and publicity event. I’m sure she spent most of her time answering questions about Dumbledore.
And where is Dumbledore now? We hear he might be in Barcelona shopping, but that could just be yet another rumor.
It’s unlikely that you haven’t heard about the southern California wildfires that are putting Malibu in danger and forcing the evacuation of thousands of homes.
The latest news on the fires is that stars are not only being forced to evacuate their homes, but filming is being disrupted as well! If these fires continue to rage some of beloved television shows may end up having serious delays in production.
Richard Gere and John Travolta who flew into the Los Angeles area on Monday for the 11th annual Hollywood Awards got a fantastic aerial view of the fires. Gere was quoted by Access Hollywood as saying “It’s as far as you could see in both directions,” Travolta then added “The smoke was actually in the plane as we flew through. It was a large area, surprisingly large. I mean I never like to see that.”
Kelsey Grammer who was evacuated from his Malibu home told E! Online “All I see is smoke, but we’re okay.” he said of his family and pet dog.
It’s also been reported that land owned by Sean Penn has been fire blackened and two of his trailers parked on that land have been charred.
Other stars that have had to be evacuated include Mel Gibson, and Victoria Principal. Victoria was kind enough to have donated $50,000 to the Malibu evacuation center so that food and blankets could be provided to evacuees. She also donated another $10,000 to an animal shelter that rescues stray pets.
Television productions that have been affected by the fire include Big Shots which canceled a cycling sequence that was scheduled to shoot on Tuesday in Malibu; A scene on 24 with Kiefer Sutherland had to be canceled due to the smoke that was drifting in from nearby fires; and one of my favorite quirky shows, The Riches, had to rewrite a scene that was to include a real sheriffs deputy – naturally the deputies were dispatched from the set to help the fire crews and evacuation efforts.
Nobu, a famous Malibu restaurant closed it’s doors on Sunday, but it’s said that they will open again to serve meals to local firefighters.
I’m sure you’ve all heard by now that Marie Osmond took a tumble when she fainted after her performance on Dancing with the Stars last night.
She’s apparently feeling just fine now. She began to feel light headed and as she fainted she was thinking about the half million people being evacuated due to the Malibu fires – so I presume she thought that the air quality was poor and that’s what caused her to faint.
Fainting can be quite a normal reaction after exertion and as long as she didn’t experience any other adverse symptoms at the time or afterward such as heart palpitations she’s likely fine.
It seems to me that in the last decade or so people have become even more health conscious than in the past – particularly when it comes to the ingredients in the foods that we eat and the chemicals or natural ingredients in the products that we use on our skin or in our households.
Personally, I prefer that the products that I use contain mainly natural ingredients. That’s why the dietary supplement R.G. Skin Revitalizer which is made from the tropical superfruit Gâc caught my attention.
Gâc has a long history of medicinal use throughout Asia. This fruit, formally known as Momordia Cochinchinemis Spreng is a large, cantaloupe sized bright red fruit that grows in abundance on vines throughout sub-tropical Asia.
This fruit is choke full of beneficial carotenoid antioxidants, lycopene, and beta-carotene which if you’ve been reading recent health related reports, have all been found to help support strong cellular rejuvenation and boost the immune system. Antioxidants are said to protect our skin from damaging free radicals so it only makes sense that we try to eat foods that are full of antioxidants isn’t it? It’s also known that Carotenoids assist in a plants pigmentation process and help protect them against excess sunlight which likely means that they will assist us in protecting our own skin and keeping it healthy.
Now, I’m fairly certain that I’ve seen this tropical fruit here in the markets of Toronto. It’s a very diverse city and you can find just about anything here, but hunting it down regularly would probably be a chore that I would not do regularly. That’s why I’m pleased to hear that the benefits of Gâc can be found in the R.G. Skin Revitalizer dietary supplement.
