oxford25 Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 From Time magazine The 10 Smartest Celebrities On Twitter, According To Time Magazine Leonardo DiCaprio is the smartest celebrity on Twitter, according to a recent analysis released by Time Magazine. The "Wolf of Wall Street" star's tweets rank at an average reading level of grade 7.5. Time speculates that, as an environmental activist, DiCaprio often tweets about ocean conservation and global warming, which most likely helped him earn the top spot. For their study, Time used a popular reading comprehension test known as Simple Measure Of Gobbledygook (SMOG) and analyzed the reading levels of the tweets produced by the 500 most-followed celebrities on Twitter. The SMOG test measures the number of three-syllable words used in the text of a tweet to calculate the years of education required to understand it. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/07/16/smartest-celebrities-twitter_n_5592871.html?utm_hp_ref=entertainment&ir=Entertainment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxford25 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Today brings news from HR of yet another producing project for Leo's Appian Way From Hollywood Reporter : Dustin Lance Black, Leonardo DiCaprio Team for 'Lindbergh' Limited Series at Paramount The Milk writer has signed on to adapt A. Scott Berg's Pulitzer Prize-winning biography, Lindbergh, for Paramount Television, the company announced Thursday. The limited series will chronicle the tumultuous life of Charles Lindbergh, from his rise to his struggles with modern celebrity. Berg, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Killoran and Kevin McCormick are on board to executive produce. "Lance is as talented and prolific as anyone working in television and film today, and we take enormous pride in working with him to adapt Scott's brilliant portrait of one of the nation's most fascinating cultural figures,” Paramount TV president Amy Powell said. "It's also incredibly gratifying to partner with Scott, Leo, Jen and Kevin on making Lindbergh an extraordinary television event that captures the scope and significance of this Pulitzer Prize-winning masterpiece." Added Black: "In Lindbergh's story, we have the very first case of a worldwide media sensation. He was an American daredevil, innovator, record breaker and icon, but he was far from perfect. I'm eager to dig into the story of a man who stumbled in his fame but showed a willingness to learn and attempt to rectify the unseen ramifications of what the world still considers his greatest successes ... a man who urged the world to, 'listen until the end.'" In addition to winning an Oscar for Milk, Black's credits include HBO's Big Love, and the features Pedro (about The Real World's Pedro Zamora), J. Edgar and 8, the 2011 play re-enacting the closing arguments in the federal trial that led to the overturning of California's Proposition 8. For its part, the play was sponsored by the American Federation of Equal Rights — where Black is a founding board member. This marks Black's latest foray into limited series. He's also prepping an eight-hour miniseries about the gay-rights movement for ABC. Paramount TV has several projects in the works, including an adaptation of The Alienist, Caleb Carr's novel; NARC, a crime drama pilot from Joe Carnahan; the Terminator co-production with Skydance; and a re-imagined version of The Truman Show. The company also is adapting for TV the Oscar-winning film Ghost and has a multiproject deal with Craig Brewer. “The life of Charles Lindbergh is one of the most cinematic stories of the last century — one in which he was cast as a legendary hero, victim, and villain. I’m thrilled that Lance Black — with his passion for history on top of his great talent—will be transposing the story to the screen, giving full scope to the unexpected personal drama as well as the dazzling public spectacle of this unique life,” Berg said.

calibi Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Leo DiCaprio’s legal team in war over 2007 Nelson Mandela pic There’s a legal battle brewing over a photo that went up for sale this week for $25,000 of Leonardo DiCaprio and the late South African leader Nelson Mandela.It was inscribed by Mandela to DiCaprio, but it never got to the actor.It’s unclear how the pic, shot while DiCaprio was filming the 2006 African epic “Blood Diamond,” made it to memorabilia and autographs dealer Moments in Time, which is offering the color image, years later.Mandela personally wrote on the image of the smiling pair: “To Leo DiCaprio, Best Wishes, Mandela, 4-8-07.” But for some reason the treasure never was sent to him.Moments in Time says it keeps its sources confidential, but owns the image’s rights.Upon learning of the picture’s existence Tuesday, DiCaprio’s camp said the photo is his — and he wants it.“The photo is clearly not their property,” said a source close to the actor.“He wants the picture. His lawyers are considering action.”We hear Hollywood attorney Steve Warren sent a letter regarding the matter this week. But Moments in Time’s Gary Zimet shot back: “They think by trying to intimidate me that they can get the picture for free. The provenance is ironclad. Leo is welcome to buy it.”DiCaprio and his mother, Irmelin, also met with Mandela in 2005. http://pagesix.com/2014/07/17/leo-dicaprios-legal-team-in-war-over-2007-nelson-mandela-pic/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxford25 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Calbi Gosh, Calibi, that is the pix that I posted here yesterday !! I wonder if that was the first time Leo saw it , too I hope he gets it back as it was clearly intended to be sent to him (Y) Tks for article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FashionDream Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Weird that all of a sudden Moments in Time is trying to sell the pic now, but that explains why we are all just becoming aware of the pics existence. Leo and co couldn't have seen the pic here first because the article mentioned that they became aware of the pic on Tuesday and the pic was posted on here on Wednesday. Just curious where did you find the pic Oxford? Thanks again for the pic Oxford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FashionDream Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 A couple more pics of him with Mandela that we've seen before... From 2005 as the article spoke of. On a side note... still waiting to see a pic of Leo with his step- niece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oxford25 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Fash I saw the pix Leo/Mandela pix when I checked Twitter Wednesday morning As to why it is being offered for sale now, I did notice that today is Mandela's birthday Tks for more Leo /Mandela pix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oxford25 Posted July 19, 2014 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Our latest Twitter /Leo plane sighting Morgan Pistole @mogeymorgy Soooo Leo Dicaprio is on my mom's friends flight right now and is about to land at the Miami airport and I just left the Miami airport... Fash As to tweet , yes, was just a random tweet . It was the type I see a lot on Twitter where person makes a comment about Leo and then post a twit link. I always open them up in case it is a 'new' pix of Leo, but, like this time, it usually is just an older pix. However, for me, even though I knew it wasn't new at all, it was 'new' to me, so I figured it might be one not a lot of others had seen , so that is why I posted it Roscoe Yes , it does appear that Leo is in Miami Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
