Macaulay Culkin Source: Wikipedia Macaulay Carson Culkin (born August 26, 1980) is an American actor and writer. He is perhaps best known for portraying Kevin McCallister in Home Alone and the title character of Richie Rich. At the height of his fame he was regarded as the most successful child actor since Shirley Temple. He was ranked # 2 in VH1's list of the "100 Greatest Kid Stars". Early life Culkin was born in New York City, the son of Patricia Brentrup and Kit Culkin, a former stage actor with a long career on Broadway. Culkin was the couple's third child of seven children; he has four brothers: Shane (born 1976), Kieran (born 1982), Christian (born 1987) and Rory (born 1989), and two sisters: Dakota (born 1979) and Quinn (born 1984). Culkin is the nephew of actress Bonnie Bedelia, who is his father's sister. During Culkin's early childhood, the family lived in a small apartment; his mother was a telephone operator and his father worked as a sacristan at a local Catholic church. Culkin was raised an Irish Catholic and attended a Catholic school (St. Joseph's) before moving on to Professional Children's School. Culkin also studied ballet at the School of American Ballet. Career Culkin began acting at the age of four, appearing in a stage production of Bach Babies at the New York Philharmonic. He continued appearing in roles on stage, television, and in films throughout the 1980s. Notable parts in this period included an episode of the popular action series The Equalizer in which he played the victim of a kidnapping. He also appeared in the movie Uncle Buck in which his character probed John Candy's title character over his background on the basis that "I'm a kid - that's my job". Culkin rose to international fame with his lead role as Kevin McCallister in the blockbuster film Home Alone (1990), where he was reunited with Uncle Buck's writer and director John Hughes. He reprised the role of Kevin in the 1992 sequel Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, which was also a success. Around this time, Culkin struck a friendship with pop legend Michael Jackson, making an appearance in the "Black or White" music video. Culkin also starred in a Saturday morning cartoon, entitled Wish Kid and hosted Saturday Night Live in late 1991. Despite the success of Home Alone, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York, and My Girl, other films Culkin acted in, such as The Good Son, which co-starred Elijah Wood and Culkin's sister, Quinn Culkin (and featured a photo cameo of Culkin's youngest sibling, Rory, as Culkin's deceased infant brother), only did reasonably well. Getting Even with Dad, Richie Rich and The Pagemaster, all released in 1994, were all only mildly successful at the box office. After several years of inactivity, Culkin returned to acting in 2000 with a role in the play Madame Melville, which was staged in London's West End. In the spring of 2003, he made a guest appearance on the NBC sitcom Will & Grace. His role as Karen Walker's immature divorce lawyer won him favorable reviews. Culkin headed back into motion pictures in 2003 with Party Monster, in which he played a role very different from those he was known for, that of party promoter Michael Alig, a drug user convicted of murder. He quickly followed that with a supporting part in Saved!, as a cynical non-Christian student who uses a wheelchair in a conservative Christian high school. Though Saved! only had modest success at the box office, Culkin received positive reviews for his role in the film and its implications for a career as an adult actor. Culkin began a career in voice over, with his appearances on Seth Green's Robot Chicken. In 2006, he published an experimental, semi-autobiographical novel, Junior, which featured details into Culkin's stardom and his shaky relationship with his father. Culkin starred in Sex and Breakfast, a dark comedy written and directed by Miles Brandman, according to Variety. Alexis Dziena, Kuno Becker and Eliza Dushku also star in this story of a couple whose therapist recommends group sex to them. Shooting for the film, Culkin's first since Saved!, took place in September 2006. The film opened in Los Angeles on November 30, 2007, and was released on DVD on January 22, 2008 by First Look Pictures. Personal life & Arrest When Culkin was fifteen years old, his parents had a custody battle. His father had been his manager. He was married to Rachel Miner from 1998-2000. Culkin has dated actress Mila Kunis since 2002. It has been rumored since early 2006 that they are planning to be wed. In 2004, Culkin was arrested in Oklahoma City for the possession of marijuana and a controlled substance, Xanax. He lives in Los Angeles, California.

FUNNY

MY FAVOURITE VIDEO OF HIM!

i'd never heard of her as a model. i walk past her shop in sydney almost everyday but until now I had never seen a picture of her modelling.

yay jessica!!

I hope he does Alice in Wonderland well. He's probably doing all the children's movies for his children.

Joker and the thief is very good.

With Macaulay Culkin.

Philanthropic work. Wikipedia: In 2000, Jackson was listed in the book of Guinness World Records for his support of 39 charities, more than any other entertainer or personality.

Very good band. I'm surprised there are so few comments. My favourite songs would be "Hanging By A Moment" & "Sick Cycle Carousel." Sick Cycle Carousel is fantastic - I'm genuinely surprised it didn't go to number 1.

I'm listening to "You Rock My World." I wonder if he will release more music. They say he is making new music so hopefully it shall be released. It's so unfair when they compare every single album release to Thriller - obviously he will not beat those sales. His last album wasn't a flop as everyone said - 10 million. That's HUGE.

she is lovely. i thought she was much older. i heard she had retired from modelling because of her children. gosh I'm ignorant.

Thanks for all the pics, Cecilia! You're more than welcome : )

Yes I know I'm excited. I wish their concert hadn't sold out so quickly. I'm actually listening to them right now - the song "Michael."

i saw the new james bond on the weekend. judi dench was fabulous as usual.

his post is going to blow up with the films success.

CLIVE - TAKE ME RIGHT NOW! *I know this sounds mean but he could do so much better than his wife. It makes him even more appealing as he cares about more than looks.*

ABSOLUTELY HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!

SOURCE: WHOWHATWEAR Girl Of The Month Riley Keough It’s no surprise that Riley Keough is one stylish broad. After all, her family tree has both major musician and movie star branches (mom is Lisa Marie Presley—who is the daughter of Elvis and Priscilla). Matriarchal roots aside, Riley developed her own sartorial compass that takes inspiration from other eclectic greats like Jimi Hendrix. What’s on tap for this kicked-back stunner? Well besides finishing up high-school, modeling (she’s repped by IMG), and hanging with her beau Ryan Cabrera, Riley (like your overly excited editors) is anticipating the upcoming summer music festivals. Read on for her suggestions on what to wear to Coachella, her personal style tips, and the secret contents of her handbag… Favorite designers? My favorite designers would have to be…Chloe, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Marc Jacobs, Marni, Dior, Luca Luca, Zac Posen, and David Yurman for jewelry for sure! So many designers make beautiful pieces, but [the above designers] are only if I’m going out. I don’t like to spend that much money on daily clothes…for daily clothes, it’s always random things I find that I like. Favorite stores? Well I really like vintage stores, because everything is very cheap (most of the time). I also like Planet Blue in Malibu, they’ve got some cool stuff. I get most of my clothes at Wasteland on Melrose. Who are your style icons? Jimi Hendrix. Am I allowed to say that? I just love all of the jewelry he wore and all of his elaborate colors. I don’t really have a style icon at the moment. I like anyone who dresses in an interesting way. What are some of your favorite new trends? I’m liking the whole movement that’s going on now. People are wearing whatever they like and are being unique, colorful and spontaneous in how they dress. It’s much better than say the ’90’s, which was boring and no matter what you wore, you looked like a business women with a backpack purse and your kids were in day-glo. What trend are you over? Lord I’m over those huge sunglasses. Never was a fan. They make you look like a bug. What are you coveting for your wardrobe right now? I really want a new purse. I have had this Dior purse for about two years and I’ve completely beaten it up. It’s hard for me to find purses I like, so when I find one I don’t ever change it. Okay speaking of bags, what do you keep in yours? Smith's Rosebud Salve, DiorShow black mascara, and Giorgio Armani sheer blush. What’s the best purchase you've ever made? I no longer wear them, but I bought these sort of metallic gold Prada boots in late 2005. I literally lived in them until about two months ago when I had to get new boots. Do you have any beauty tips? Don’t get plastic surgery. Right now, every girl needs a _____ ? ...hearty meal. If you could raid anyone's closet, whose would it be and why? My mammy’s, she’s got the most beautiful coats and shoes that I very seldom get to borrow. It would be fun to tear apart the entire thing just to make my point. Where are your favorite places to go out/eat/hang? I am very easily amused. Anywhere I go with my friends makes am happy. I love going to music festivals. And to eat, I love Papa Jake's in Beverly Hills, Mulberry Street Pizza, and Crustacean for the most amazing crab I have ever had. What do you buy at the newsstand? I love i-D magazine because I love seeing all of the different ways you could possibly cover one eye. I love reading the articles in Rolling Stone, I recently have been into National Geographic magazines. I like Pop…and of course Vogue. Vogue always has interesting people on the cover and good stories. What music's on your iPod right now? Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Jeff Buckley, Shiny Toy Guns, Guster, Daft Punk, Scissor Sisters, STS9, Kings of Leon, Sigur Ros, Citizen Cope, Janis Joplin, The Stones, Hendrix…its all very random. Since you like music festivals, what’s your advice on dressing for Coachella? Coachella is ridiculously hot, and at the end of the day you’re not going to look good no matter what. From my experience, I suggest wearing something really airy, like a little dress, or shorts and a loose shirt. Who are you most excited to catch at Coachella? Kings of Leon, Ratatat, Nickel Creek, Arcade Fire, Manu Chao, and Rage Against The Machine!!

SHE IS SO STYLISH!!!!!

She is lovely. TEEN VOGUE.
