taking it all, or mostly all, off as a cover girl for Sports Illustrated’s new sexy annual swimsuit issue.Like Norma Desmond, played by Gloria Swanson in the film Sunset Boulevard, Martha, 81, loves being on camera, looks spectacular, and probably believes as Desmond did, “The stars are ageless, aren’t they.” She calls being a sex symbol “fantastic.”But Martha’s decision to pose where once young bikini-clad beauties like Kate Upton, Tyra Banks and Christie Brinkley graced SI’s cover should not come as a surprise to Martha insiders.Long before the public ever heard of her, Martha was considered a very hot and desirable lady — holding sex-themed parties in her Westport estate, Turkey Hill, that would not have been appropriate for inclusion in her first big book that made her a star, “Entertaining.”Those parties, involving a very small select group of couples and singles shocked some of Martha’s close friends who were invited to her sexy get-togethers for the first time.They were also usually held when her attorney husband and later New York publisher, Andy Stewart, was out of town.“My husband was sort of horrified at the behavior he saw going on,” recalled Martha’s close friend, NormaCollier, a former model and Martha’s catering business partner for a time. “Martha, for instance, was on [another man’s] lap.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic While the world was grappling with the COVID-19 pandemic, French director Thomas Cailley was imagining another kind of coronavirus, one he’d cooked up before the crisis, but which suddenly took on new real-world relevance. In “The Animal Kingdom,” a mysterious malady is sweeping France, unlocking something at a genetic level that causes people to transform into hybrid creatures. The mutations are slow and somewhat unpredictable: One person might sprout feathers, observing over weeks as their arms develop into wings, while another grows scales and winds up slithering like a snake. Through it all, 16-year-old Émile (Paul Kircher) and his father, François (Romain Duris), are just trying to stay calm, which isn’t easy when something akin to a zombie apocalypse has left the entire country jittery and suspicious. What’s causing the mutations? Is it contagious? Can the creatures be trusted, or are they a threat to others? A scar on Émile’s cheek, acquired during the early days of his mother’s infection, offers a hint of the risk. People are understandably frightened of the unknown, but scarier still is the possibility that the same could happen to them.

Peter Debruge Chief Film Critic Every time two cowboys point their guns at one another on screen, there’s something homoerotic at play. Hollywood Westerns may be loath to admit as much, but not so Pedro Almodóvar, who casts Ethan Hawke and Pedro Pascal as lonesome cowboys reunited after 25 years in “Strange Way of Life.” Commissioned by Saint Laurent Productions (which is also premiering a Jean-Luc Godard short at Cannes), this half-baked half-hour serves as a sexy showcase for creative director Anthony Vaccarello’s latest designs, while barely delivering on the promise that an Almodóvar-made “gay cowboy” movie conjures in the imagination. At the Cannes premiere, the Spanish director described “Strange” as his response to a question posed by “Brokeback Mountain”: What can two men do on a ranch? Silva (Pascal) gives Jake (Hawke) his answer in the final seconds of the short, and it’s sweet, though it turns out Almodóvar is misremembering Ang Lee’s 2005 Western. The scene he’s thinking of is probably the one where Heath Ledger’s character tells Jake Gyllenhaal how his father made a point of showing him an old rancher’s corpse, gay-bashed with a tire iron and then “drug … around by his dick.” With an image like that in their minds, no wonder the couple decide to keep their forbidden love on the down low.

Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer The Writers Guild of America strike is clearly taking a toll on production, as the Los Angeles permitting agency reported a 69.5% decline in on-location permits last week. FilmLA, which handles permitting for many jurisdictions around L.A. County, reported that there were 111 permits last week for TV and feature films. That includes reality TV, which is not covered by the WGA strike. That figure was down 69.5% from the same week in 2022, when there were 364 permits. The figure does not include permits for commercial shoots, which are also done under a separate contract.

A.D. Amorosi It’s good to be Ludacris. Twenty years after his first appearance in the “Fast and Furious” action-adventure franchise, 2003’s “2 Fast 2 Furious,” the Atlanta rapper and actor is set to get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame the same week “Fast X” premieres. Such attention is nothing new to Chris “Ludacris” Bridges. As an artist, he’s sold more than 24 million albums worldwide since he began making music with 1999’s independent “Incognegro.” From there, it was on to a Def Jam contract and mainstream fame with such hits as “Act a Fool” and “Stand Up,” plus collaborations such as his 2004 feature alongside Lil Jon on Usher’s “Yeah!” For a guy who hasn’t made a new album since 2015, the “Dirty South” rapper is jump-starting his schedule with just-booked music gigs in Miami Beach in May, and Kevin Hart’s Hartbeat Weekend at the Resorts World Las Vegas in July. Bridges talked with Variety about his start in radio, how Timbaland discovered him, and the way that business school has helped guide him through a long career in the hip-hop game.

A.D. Amorosi In November 2001, Ludacris was set to release his third album, “Word of Mouf.” At the same time, however, his debut on film, “The Wash,” was also about to hit theaters. Luda’s role in the DJ Pooh-directed comedy starring Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg was small. But “The Wash,” along with his goofball antics in several of his music videos (“if you do them right, videos are like acting reels,” he says), put Luda in front of major league filmmakers such as the late John Singleton and Paul Haggis. In back-to-back films, the rapper became a movie star as Tej Parker in 2003’s “2 Fast 2 Furious,” followed in 2004 by the Oscar-winning “Crash.” Some 30 more movies would follow.

Spice Girls star Geri Halliwell made headlines back in 1997 when she cheekily eschewed royal protocol and planted a kiss on the cheek of a blushing then-Prince Charles at a Charity Gala for the Prince's trust - after her former bandmate, Mel B did the same. And it seems that the now-King Charles and Geri (who's last name is now Horner) are still on great terms as she was spotted giving him a hug, a kiss and an encouraging pep talk during a Prince’s Trust event on Wednesday, telling him: "You’re a very modern king”.

Johnny Depp is returning to the big screens after his high-profile legal case against ex-wife Amber Heard. During a recent press conference for his new movie Jeanne Du Barry at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival, the 59-year-old actor revealed he did feel “boycotted” by Hollywood when many companies canceled him.“You’d have to not have a pulse at that point to feel like, ‘No, none of this is happening. This is actually just a weird joke,’” said Depp during the event.

Fyre Fest — claims he has secured adequate funds to pay off his debts, launch a new version of the festival, and develop a Broadway musical about the original event.First developed by McFarland six years ago, the botched festival Fyre Fest was originally set to run over two weekends on a private beach in the Bahamas, but was revealed to be fraudulent once punters arrived on the scene, with inadequate conditions and a lack of food and water.The debacle was then captured in the now iconic Netflix documentary FYRE.Following the failure of the festival, McFarland pleaded guilty to multiple counts of fraud and was sentenced to six years in prison. He was released early from his sentence in 2022, after serving four years.In March this year, McFarland laid out his plans to repay the $26million (£20.9million) he owes to investors.
