She has launched her own clothing line in association with being a brand ambassador for the retail chain Globus.

Biography: Born on 21st September, 1980, in an iconic family which has given the country few of its best actors and actresses, Kareena Kapoor is the daughter of Randhir Kapoor and Babita. Her elder sister, Karisma Kapoor is also an actress. Kareena Kapoor made her debut with Refugee (2000). Although the film didn’t do so well at the box office, it was enough for Kareena Kapoor to leave her mark as a girl with potential. Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001) which became the highest overseas grosser of that year gave her recognition and success as an actress. However her other films, Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai, Yaadein, Ajnabee and Asoka, released in the same year gained mediocre success

Her career received a setback in 2002 and 2003, all her movies, Mujhse Dosti Karoge!, Jeena Sirf Merre Liye, Talaash: The Hunt Begins…, Khushi, Main Prem Ki Diwani Hoon, LOC Kargil, were quite unsuccessful at the box-office. Her movies released in 2004 and 2005, Chameli, Yuva, Fida, Aitraaz, Dev, Hulchal, Bewafaa, Dosti: Friends Forever received a lukewarm response at the box-office. However, her roles in Chameli and Dev were critically acclaimed. In 2006, she starred in 36 China Town, Chup Chup Ke, Omkara and did a cameo appearance in Don – The Chase Begins Again. Her portrayal of Dolly (based on Desdemona, from the Shakespearean play, Othello) received rave critical reviews.

The release of Jab We Met (2007) brought with it huge success and fan following. She delivered the role of a free spirited, fiery sikhni with gusto. Tashan, released in 2008, was a flop. Another release of 2008, Roadside Romeo, an animated movie from Yash Raj and Walt Disney Pictures had her lending her voice to the character of Laila. Kambakkht Ishq and Main Aurr Mrs Khanna both 2009 releases did not do so well, however Kurbaan and 3 Idiots which also released in the same year gained her nominations for Filmfare Award for Best Actress. She then appeared in the much stalled Milenge Milenge (2010). Karan Johar’s We Are Family (2010), a Hindi adaptation of Hollywood’s Stepmom (1998) saw her playing the role originally portrayed by the talented, Julia Roberts. The role won her the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress. She has been a part of the Golmaal series and has played a role in Golmaal Returns (2008) and was the leading lady in Golmaal 3 (2010).

Her future releases include Anubhav Sinha’s science fiction Ra.One alongside Shah Rukh Khan, Agent Vinod with beau Saif Ali Khan and Bodyguard with Salman Khan.

 Kareena was born to Sindhi-speaking Babita (nee Shivdasani) and Punjabi-speaking Randhir Kapoor in Bombay, India. She has an elder sister, Karisma.

She is born in a family that have been actors for generations, including her paternal great-grandfather, Prithviraj Kapoor; her grandfather, Raj Kapoor; her paternal uncles, Shammi, Shashi, Rishi, and Rajiv; as well as aunt, Neetu Singh, & Jennifer Kendall, the wives of Rishi and Shashi respectively. On her maternal side, her grandfather, Hari Shivdasani, and aunt, Sadhana, have been actors in their own rights.

As a child she studied in Jamnabai Narsee School in Juhu, Bombay, and thereafter was enrolled in Dehra Dun's prestigious Welham Girls' Boarding School. Then she re-located to Harvard for approximately 3 months to take a course in Information Technology and Microcomputers. Upon her return to India, she joined the Government Law College in Churchgate, Bombay, but left it after one year, to enroll in the Kishore Namit Kapoor Acting School.

Her dad, Randhir is very protective towards his daughters and wanted both of them to keep away from acting, get married, and settle down, as per the Kapoor family tradition. This led to irreconcilable differences between her parents, ultimately leading to a divorce, with both sisters leaving their dad to live with their mom.

Her film debut was in the year 2000 with 'Refugee' along with the debut of Amitabh Bachchan's son, Abhishek. She went on to appear in 31 other Hindi movies, and has thus far won four awards for her performances in 'Refugee', 'Chameli', 'Dev', and 'Omkara'.

She is one of the most sought-after actresses in Bollywood, considered bankable, with an enviable A-listing and as of June 2007 is to appear in 'Tashan', 'Lajjo', 'Kismat Talkies' amongst others.

Singapore Airshow 2012 Indonesian buyers dominated

Singapore Airshow 2012 Indonesian buyers dominated
news,celebrities,trends,fashions,films,drama,videos,scandals,artists,phenomenals,sensation,beauty,actions

An expanding middle class, strong economic growth, political stability and the need to link the resource-rich islands are fuelling a travel boom that could spawn even more local airlines, industry executives and analysts say.

Budget carrier Lion Air grabbed the limelight at the beginning of the trade fair on Tuesday when it formally sealed a $22.4 billion deal for 230 aircraft with US aircraft maker Boeing.

Lion Air ordered 201 Boeing 737 MAX and 29 next-generation 737-900ERs, with purchase rights for an additional 150 planes for its domestic and regional operations.

Dinesh Keskar, vice president of Asia Pacific and India for sales at Boeing Commercial Airplanes, described the deal as "the largest order in the history of aviation that I can know of".

With some 240 million people, Indonesia has the world's fourth largest population and is the most far-flung archipelago with over 17,000 islands scattered across 33 provinces and three time zones between Singapore and Australia.

Indonesia's economy grew 6.5 percent last year, the fastest pace in 15 years, with growth projected at between 6.3 and 6.7 percent this year.

Foreign investors ploughed $20 billion into the economy in 2011, up from $17 billion on year.

"Indonesia alone is able to sustain the robustness of the (Southeast Asian) market because the middle class is growing, it has a growing population and the country is also gaining confidence on the economic and political fronts," said aviation analyst Shukor Yusof of Standard & Poor's Equity Research.

"The country is creating the market forces that allow more and more people to fly. Geographically it's perfect for the industry."

Airlines are targeting Indonesia's eastern part such as Makassar, Sulawesi and Manado, all areas with a promising tourism sector, said Shukor, who expects smaller family-owned airlines to join the competition.

"And don't forget that these are all the areas where you have all the mines and all the resource-based industries," he added. "People have got the money to travel."

The market is so massive that there is still room for growth even with the current number of airlines plying the country, according to an executive at Indonesian flag carrier Garuda, which is facing stiff competition from private firms.

"There is enough to be shared by everybody. Even if new airlines come in, we can all still make profit," said the source, who asked not to be named.

At the Singapore Airshow, which is held every other year and closes this weekend, Garuda also signed a deal to buy six Bombardier CRJ1000 jets with an option for 18 more.

The six firm orders are worth $297 million, Canada-based Bombardier said, adding that if Garuda exercises the 18 options, this will raise the deal to about $1.32 billion.

And just two days after firming up its Boeing order, Lion Air announced it was buying 27 smaller aircraft from European manufacturer ATR.

The new ATR 72-600 turboprop planes, worth $610 million, will be integrated into Lion Air unit Wings Air, with full delivery scheduled for the end of 2015.

"The ATR aircraft are perfectly adapted to the Indonesian short-haul market and allows Wings Air to connect communities, even those located in remote areas," said Rusdi Kirana, chairman of Wings Air and president of Lion Air.

Even on the military side, Indonesia was also a star at the show.

The country signed a $325 million contract with Airbus Military for nine C-295 transport planes to be used by the air force for defence, logistical and humanitarian purposes....READ MORE

Singapore Budget 2012 Focusing on Infrastructure, Poor, reduce energy, water and waste

Singapore Budget 2012 Focusing on Infrastructure, Poor, reduce energy, water and waste
news,celebrities,trends,fashions,films,drama,videos,scandals,artists,phenomenals,sensation,beauty,actions

The budget for the fiscal year beginning April 2012 is also expected to include increased spending on the city-state's infrastructure as it struggles to cope with a sharp increase in population over the past five years.

Singapore, a major Asian hub for banks and multinationals, is facing pressure from citizens to tighten immigration and cap the number of foreigners, who now make up a third of the island's 5.2 million people.

Last year, Singapore-based companies employed an extra 79,800 foreigners — mainly from countries such as China and the Philippines — more than double the 36,600 increase in local employment, according to Singapore's Manpower Ministry.

Many Singaporeans blame the influx for overcrowding on roads and trains as well as competition for jobs that has kept real wages for lower-skilled workers stagnant during the past decade.

"Recent budgets have thus sprung more negative surprises on companies, with stricter foreign worker policies, including stricter quotas and increases in foreign worker levies," said Bank of America Merrill Lynch economist Chua Hak Bin.

"Greater attention on Singaporeans and lower-income households means that fiscal surpluses have been largely shared with individuals, and less so with companies, compared to the past," he added.

Singapore enjoys huge surpluses so Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam is under no pressure to rein in spending.

Chua said Singapore will likely report an overall budget surplus of around S$4 billion ($3.2 billion) for the fiscal year ending March 2011 — or about 1.2 percent of GDP — far higher than the government's initial estimate of about S$100 million.

Citigroup's Kit Wei Zheng said Singapore's overall fiscal surplus would be as high as S$26 billion if the government included as revenue proceeds from land sales as well as interest and dividend income from its investments.

In Singapore, income from government land sales is booked directly into reserves and not reflected as revenue in the annual budgets. Citi estimates Singapore collected nearly S$10 billion in land sales in the 10 months to January 2012.

Budget Steps

Singapore's economy contracted by 4.9 percent in October-December on a quarter-on-quarter, seasonally adjusted and annualized basis and Tharman has warned growth will likely be weak in the next two years.

Inflation remains elevated at above 5 percent, however, which means authorities will have to tread carefully to avoid stoking spending....READ MORE

The Singapore Budget 2012 speech will be delivered by Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance, Mr Tharman Shanmugaratnam, in Parliament next Friday. Singapore and the world is expected to face an economic slowdown over the next few years, thus this Singapore Budget is especially important in helping businesses prosper and not falter in the Year of the Dragon.

At Green Business Times, our top wish for this year’s Budget is to see the government help more companies reduce their environmental impacts and save on operating costs.

The government can consider results-based incentives to motivate more companies in reducing their environmental impacts, such as water and energy consumption, and waste disposal. The incentives would be based on how much energy, water or waste is reduced by the company, and could include rental or cash rebates, and tax deductions.

Existing government green incentives and funding are often technology-based or restricted to the implementation of a particular process, framework or methodology. In addition, the green incentives and funding usually apply to MNCs and large SMEs or manufacturing companies, and not to smaller SMEs or those in the service industry.

At the end of the day, we want companies of all sizes to reduce energy, water and waste so that they can reduce their operating costs and also do good for the environment. As long as the companies can achieve and verify actual reduction results, it does not really matter what company size they are, which sector they are in, or which technology or process they use. The government should reward any company that takes steps to reduce energy, water and waste, and recognise the company’s sustainability efforts.

For example, there are existing government funding for companies to implement energy efficient equipment or to retrofit equipment, but these technology implementations could be costly upfront and deter companies from doing so, even if there is government funding. There are other ways to reduce energy through non-technology-based initiatives such as increasing employee education, using design thinking, changing behaviour, gamification, or using social web and mobile apps. If companies can use these non-technological ways to reduce energy, then they should be rewarded too.

Another example is companies who are tenants in office buildings and business parks. If the company wishes to reduce its energy, water and waste, there are no existing government incentives. The company usually has to incur extra costs to install energy efficient lighting, water efficient taps, or implement a recycling programme. Although the company could save on its utility bill, it would help the company further if there are incentives to offset its upfront or recurring costs.

Incentives could be adjusted based on how much the company achieved in reducing its environmental impacts. For example, the more energy a company saves, the higher the incentive given to the company, and vice versa. In this way, the government would reward based on results and be technology, process, or industry-neutral. In addition, the government could become more productive by streamlining and consolidating existing incentives and funding programmes, and cause less confusion to the potential applicants. Companies of all sizes would also be motivated to achieve greater reductions.

Businesses need to reduce their operating costs in this time of economic uncertainty. The government can help by providing incentives that would reward companies based on the results of their actual reduction in energy, water and waste, and would benefit companies of all sizes and from all industry sectors...READ MORE

Whitney Houston's cause of death video update

Whitney Houston's cause of death video update

A police spokesman says that attempts were made to resuscitate Whitney Houston, after she was found unresponsive in her suite on the fourth floor of the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles.

The singer was found dead at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, where she was most likely due to attend the annual Clive Davis Grammy party being held at the hotel.

According to celebrity website TMZ the singer was found in a bath tub and prescription drugs were in the room. An autopsy will establish whether she drowned, whether drugs were involved, or whether there was another cause.

"They found her unresponsive. They attempted life-saving resuscitation measures, unfortunately they were not successful and at approximately 3:55pm (23:55 GMT) Whitney Houston was pronounced dead at the Beverly Hilton Hotel," said Lieutenant Mark Rosen, spokesman for the Beverly Hills Police Department.

"We'll conclude our investigation, I don't know how long that will take and we'll take possession of Miss Houston's body and they will also conduct their own investigation."

From the middle 1980s to the late 1990s, Houston was one of the world's bestselling artists.

She wowed audiences with effortless, powerful and peerless vocals that were rooted in the black church but made palatable to the masses with a pop sheen. ...READ MORE

Sources tell TMZ, Whitney Houston "partied heavily" last night at the Beverly HIlton hotel where she was staying, drinking and chatting loudly with friends in the bar -- but Cissy Houston and Dionne Warwick claim the singer sounded fine just hours before her death.

We're told Bobby Brown is distraught over Whitney's death -- going "in and out of crying fits." His band New Edition tells us, they are "shocked and saddened."

Clive Davis' pre-Grammy party -- which Whitney was supposed to open -- is going on as scheduled this evening, though Clive will not be in attendance.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, police are currently seeking a search warrant to investigate the hotel room where Whitney was found dead. One item they'll be looking out for -- drugs.

Korean leader Kim Jong-Un dead Twitter rumor claims on

A team of trained ninja assassins snuck into North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un's room overnight and assassinated the new leader while he was on a business trip in Beijing -- if rumors spreading across microblogging service Twitter and its Chinese counterpart Weibo are to be believed, that is.

The rumors -- unsubstantiated by any major news service or government agency -- started on the Chinese language Twitter clone earlier today, claiming Jong-Un had been killed in his residence.

“According to reliable sources, North Korean leader [Kim Jong-Un was killed] in Beijing in February 10 2012, at 2 o'clock and 45 minutes. Unknown persons broke into his residence shot and were subsequently shot and killed by the bodyguard,” one Tweet claimed.

No new photo of the leader of the reclusive country has emerged -- at least none picked up by the popular tumblr blog Kim Jong-Un Looking at Things.

The news spread like wildfire across Twitter as well as Weibo -- and quickly become fodder for jokes.

“Hearing unconfirmed reports that Kim Jong-Un is the new England manager,” wrote a journalist with London paper The Sun.

“BREAKING: Kim Jong-Un death confirmed, now registered to vote in Chicago,” wrote a Washington Times correspondent.

Other Twitter users were quick to urge caution.

“Wait for confirmation on Kim Jong-Un death rumors. Twitter is also reporting that ‘Jonas Brothers are the best band,’” wrote one Twitter user.

The Gordon Chan Ka Seung produced, Carol Lai Miu Shuet directed, Shu Qi and Shawn Yue Man Lok starred romantic thriller THE SECOND WOMAN (CHING MAI) will be released on March 8. Shu Qi in the film played two characters, a pair of twins who both fell for Yue Man Lok and into a immoral love triangle. Shu Qi in the film was vicious, gentle and sexy all in one. Earlier she admitted that making THE SECOND WOMAN absolutely was not easy, for a period she could not pull herself out.

Shu Qi earlier posted a “shedding tear” photo online. She thought that eyes that were swollen from crying looked great. She said, “Eye drops can be used in crying scenes! Yet it has no way to reach the condition of red eyes and nose, so I still cry on my own.” In the film she played twin sisters who both fell for Yue Man Lok’s stage actor. She admitted that both characters tragically tortured her, as the older sister’s voice and tone would come out suddenly through the younger sister. She could only discuss with the director to first finish one before shooting the other. Otherwise she could not perform.

Shu Qi is a Golden Horse Award winning Best Actress and made many outstanding films. She pointed out that now good characters are fun characters. She would not deliberately think of any hardship or challenge for herself. Instead she wanted to play, so her movies did not have to be high technical....READ MORE

According to the Hong Kong media, “good friends” Denise Ho and Joey Yung have parted ways and that each had found her own partner.

Denise and Joey were rumoured to be dating each other for years, but had reportedly split recently because of the gap in their career achievements. Joey was also said to be still interested in the opposite sex.

Two years ago, Joey’s mother introduced Jeffrey, a 36-year-old finance specialist, to the singer.

Jeffrey reportedly professed his love for Joey recently. Last October, the pair went on a date for the first time. Then, Joey informed Denise of the date, but the latter showed indifference towards the news.

Later, Denise became involved with a musical Jia Baoyu. According to an insider, the singer grew close to her co-star Jozie Lu. The pair will tour China this March and will spend six months together.

Joey was said to have initiated the split because of this, and had even said, “Women cannot be trusted too.”

Recently, it was rumoured that Joey did not know Jeffrey at all.

Instead, it was Heison, a 30-year-old director, who had directed some of Joey’s music videos, who is actively courting the singer.

The pair had been spotted dining together and had flirted through their microblogs.

When the media interviewed Heison over the phone and asked if he was dating Joey, Heison said, “We’re all friends. I’m not courting her.”

Joey’s manager also said that she did not know if Joey is in a new relationship, adding that Denise and Joey had always been friends....READ MORE

Waldorf Astoria Shanghai – a legendary icon of social prestige and glamour – hosted the first-ever Shanghai International Debutante Ball

Reigniting a grand British social tradition in Shanghai, the inaugural Shanghai International Debutante Ball was held at Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund on 7 January, 2012.

Waldorf Astoria Shanghai is inspired by the original Waldorf Astoria in New York, which has hosted the city’s glamorous high society at its annual Debutante Ball for over 50 years.

Thirteen specially invited young ladies from the United States, France, United Kingdom and Greater China made their high-society debut in the hotel’s opulent marble halls. The 2012 Debutantes, aged between 16 and 25, each come from prominent families around the world. As well as an esteemed lineage, they were selected according to their personal accomplishments and graceful demeanour. The two Chinese Debutantes were Vivien Lee from Hong Kong and Jen Hau from Taiwan.

A gourmet sit-down banquet for 160 VIP guests and Debutante family members was held in the Grand Ballroom of Waldorf Astoria Shanghai. Dressed in traditional white couture, the Debutantes then descended the hotel’s sweeping antique staircase to the Marble Foyer for the ceremony. This was followed by cake cutting and dancing late into the evening.

“The Waldorf Astoria Shanghai was the ideal venue to host our inaugural International Debutante Ball in Asia. The Waldorf Astoria name has been associated with Debutante Balls in New York and Europe for over half a century, and Waldorf Astoria Shanghai’s historic building has represented the pinnacle of British high-society in Shanghai since the early 1900s,” said Vivian Chow Wong, founder of the Shanghai International Debutante Ball.

The Shanghai International Debutante Ball is founded and managed by Vivian Chow Wong, creator of the May Ball, the only ball brand in China. An extension of the traditions and etiquettes of British Debutante Balls dating back to 1780, the Shanghai International Debutante Ball has the full backing of authorities on British upper-class social culture, and was overseen by official Choreographers and Directors of Protocol. Esteemed high-society leaders, and former debutantes, Jennie Hallam-Peel and Patricia Woodall were the 2012 Ball’s Officiating Guests of Honour.

The 2012 Debutante Ball was sponsored by Waldorf Astoria Shanghai on the Bund, KOTUR handbags and image creation consultant, Kim Robinson. READ MORE

Apple's iPhone edged past major news events, celebrities and pop stars as the top searched term on the Web in 2011, according to Yahoo!

The digital media company said the smartphone proved more popular than reality television celebrity Kim Kardashian, pop star Katy Perry and singer and actress Jennifer Lopez, who placed in the top five.

American Casey Anthony, the woman acquitted of the murder of her young daughter after a highly publicized trial, was No. 2.

"This is the first time since 2002 that we have had a gadget at No.1, which is an iPhone." Vera Chan, a Web trend analyst at Yahoo!, said in a conference call announcing the results of the review now in its 10th year.

"Even though the product has been around for four years it just became such a major news story," she added.

PlayStation2 topped the list in 2002.

Chan credited the iPhone with helping to facilitate political movements around the world and said the device embodied the vision of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs who died in October.

Women dominated the list, capturing six out of the top 10 spots. Troubled actress Lindsay Lohan made headlines for a brief stay in jail and court appearances for violating probation on drunken driving and theft charges captured the No. 6 spot.

Actress Jennifer Aniston, a first timer on the top 10 list along with Lopez, came in eighth.

In addition to the Casey Anthony trial, the Japan earthquake and Osama bin Laden who was killed in a U.S. assault in Pakistan earlier this year, were the only news stories to make the top 10.

"People don't have to search for details they get in the news, and it is rare that a news story end up on the overall list," said Chan.

Pop princess Britney Spears, who dominated the list in the top spot for four consecutive years, failed to make the list this year.

"American Idol," which was the most search item in 2004, placed seventh.

The Yahoo! list is based on aggregated visitor activity on the network and billions of consumer searches.

2011年12月7日 明治粉ミルクから放射性セシウム 原発事故後に埼玉県工場で加工

株式会社明治は6日、同社の粉ミルク製品｢明治ステップ(850グラム缶)｣の一部から放射性セシウムが検出されたことを明らかにした。

放射性セシウムが検出されたのは、賞味期限が2012年10月4日、21日、22日、24日の製品。検出された放射性セシウムの量は、1キログラム当たり22-31ベクレルで、食品衛生法の暫定基準1キログラム当たり200グラムを下回っている。同社は、毎日、乳児が飲んでも健康への影響はないとする一方、該当の賞味期限日製品だけでなく賞味期限が2012年10月の製品全てについて、希望する購入客に新しい製品と交換することを明らかにした。

新聞、放送、通信社の報道によると、粉ミルクの原料は全て東日本大震災の前、主に海外と北海道で生産されている。東京電力福島第一原子力発電所事故が起きた3月11日の後、3月14-20日に埼玉県春日部市の工場で加工された。外気を取り入れて乾燥させる加工工程で、福島第一原発事故で大気中に放出された放射性セシウムが入り込んだ可能性がある、と明治は説明している。

ウェブサイト「子供を守ろうSAVE CHILD」によると、東京都立産業技術センターの測定で、3月15日の午前10-11時に都内の大気から1立方メートル当たり124ベクレルの放射性セシウムが測定されている(東京都産業労働局 関連サイト )。また、早川由紀夫・群馬大学教育学部教授の火山ブログによると、福島第一原発から放出された放射性物質の汚染ルートは5経路あり、3月15日午後の飯舘ルート(飯舘-福島-郡山-那須方面)、3月21日の柏ルート、3月20日の一関ルート、3月の女川ルートに加え、群馬ルートがある。群馬ルートは15日午前、放射性物質を含んだ大気がいわき-水戸-東京-沼田-魚沼という経路をたどって流れ、春日部市もこのルート沿いに位置している。

学長から訓告された。

訓告（抜粋）「貴殿のインターネット上のツイッターにおける福島県の被災者や農家の人々に対する配慮を著しく欠く発言は、運営に要する経費の大部分を国費によって賄われている国立大学の教員として不適切な発言と言わざるを得ず、

Lee Seon-kyun and Im Soo-jung as husband and wife on casting

Damn, this girl has all the luck. Okay, fine, she’s awesome and talented and quirky and delightful. She just also happens to costar with all of my favorite boys, one right after the other. Gong Yoo wasn’t enough, now you have to have The Voice too? Some people just live charmed lives, yunno? Im Soo-jung and Lee Seon-kyun have been cast to play opposite each other as a married couple in All About My Wife, a film about a mismatched husband and wife on the brink of divorce.

It’s the new project from Antique Bakery‘s PD Min Kyu-dong, who was also a producer on Im Soo-jung’s latest film, Finding Kim Jong-wook. His last project as a director was the recent re-adaptation of Noh Hee-kyung’s The Most Beautiful Goodbye In the World, and he’s been coming up the ranks as a director and producer.

Im Soo-jung will play the outspoken, blunt-force-trauma honest, force of nature wife, while Lee Seon-kyun will play her very timid and sensitive husband, to whom “divorce is harder than love.” So then I’m assuming their love isn’t very easy to begin with, if he’s still willing to endure it for fear of divorce. His character is described as so meek that he can’t even utter the “D” in “Divorce.” Ha. I love this reversal already, especially since we’re so used to seeing Lee play the shouty alpha male. Not that he doesn’t play sensitive guys, but it’s usually the I’m-gonna-be-a-bombastic-ass-to-cover-up-my-bleeding-heart guy, not the scared-of-my-own-wife guy.

Ryu Seung-ryong (Personal Tase, who also happens to be stiff competition for being nicknamed The Voice) will play the intruding third party, an eccentric cassanova “invested in the couple’s separation.” Yeah, I’d say he’s invested, all right. But seriously, could there be a better guy to play the cassanova? As far as casting goes, this movie’s right on the money.

All About My Wife starts shooting in late November, for release next year.
