Clara Bow was Hollywood's original It Girl, thanks to her magnetic presence and emotive brown eyes.

Bette Davis (shown here in Now, Voyager) had peepers that could make a pro blush—and there's a song to prove it.

In addition to her sizzling chemistry with co-star Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor also captivated Cleopatra audiences with her dramatic blue eye makeup.

Miley Cyrus Doesn't Want to Party in the U.S.A. Anymore



Miley Cyrus' biggest post-Hannah Montana hit came with her summer anthem "Party in the U.S.A.," but these days Miley needs to go outside the States to get her kicks. Namely, Europe, Australia, and anywhere else that isn't her native country. Currently in the midst of a successful world tour, Miley revealed to the AP that even though she's getting standing ovations in countries that don't primarily speak English, she's feeling a lack of love in the United States -- to the point that she's not sure whether to plan a trek for her fans here.
"I just think right now America has gotten to a place where I don't know if they want me to tour or not," Cyrus said. "Right now I just want to go to the places where I am getting the most love and Australia and South America have done that for me. Kind of going to the places where I get the most love. Don't want to go anywhere where I don't feel completely comfortable with it."
However, Miley's decision not to tour the States probably has to do less with not feeling the love and more to do with ticket sales: Since the arrival of Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez, the old guard of Disney stars -- Miley, Demi Lovato, and the Jonas Brothers -- have seen their popularity diminish significantly. Miley may still be a paparazzi fixture, but like Lindsay Lohan, cameras and tabloids are more concerned with whom she's dating or what she is (or isn't) wearing than what she is up to career-wise.
The tabloid scrutiny over the past year about her family's personal lives has also given the Cyrus clan a nice reprieve. "I think it's good, especially when you go on the road. You have to make sure everyone is happy before you start traveling, you're away," Cyrus added. "My family is good. They are stoked for tour. As long as I'm happy they are happy." So while Miley is happy these days, unfortunately her American fans are not.

NEW ORLEANS - Actor Nicolas Cage was arrested after he got drunk in the city's French Quarter and argued in the street with his wife over whether a house they were in front of was theirs, police said Saturday.
The couple was in front of a home that Cage insisted they were renting, police said. When she said it wasn't theirs, Cage grabbed her arm, according to a police news release.
Cage started hitting vehicles and tried to get into a taxi, police said. An officer saw that Cage was drunk and told him to get out of the cab. Cage then started yelling at the officer.
The actor has been booked on charges of domestic abuse battery, disturbing the peace and public drunkenness. He was released on $11,000 bond Saturday.
Representatives for Cage could not immediately be reached Saturday.
Cage has been a frequent visitor to New Orleans, where he has owned property and shot movies. He has also had financial troubles, despite being one of the highest-paid stars in Hollywood.
He had been behind on taxes and has said he's had to sell numerous assets because of his finances. He sued his former business manager in October 2009 for $20 million, claiming the man's advice led him to financial ruin.
Cage won an Academy Award for his performance in 1995's "Leaving Las Vegas."

Miley Cyrus Remakes Poison’s 80’s Ballad: ‘Every Roses Has Its Thorns’


When Miley Cyrus signed up for an acoustic guitar in her video for her power ballad “The Climb“, fans already predicted that she might be attempting to take a new and fresh direction with her music taste. This time via People magazine, it is revealed that Miley is going to adopt Poison’s Bic-flicking ’80s stadium ballad, “Every Rose Has Its Thorn.”

Moreover, it was said that Miley even recorded her remake with the song writer himself, Bret Michaels, who is a frontman of Poison. Apparently Miley’s a big Poison fan, since a Poison gig in Nashville was her first concert experience, and according to a quote in People by Miley’s mom, Tish Cyrus, “Every Rose” is one of the teen star’s “all-time favorite songs and she is really excited about cutting it.” But teen stars covering ’70s/’80s pop-rock hits is not a totally new phenomenon for sure.

At Andrew Garfield In Full Costume

Sony Pictures announced today that its new Spider-Man movie directed by Marc Webb and starring Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker will be titled The Amazing Spider-Man! Sony also released the first official photo of (and we'll have to take their word on it) Garfield in his full Spider-Man costume.
I like it but just like the previous image released (below) this image is soooo dark ... I would have prefered a Brandon-Routh-Super-Man-like shot - The Big Secret of Super-Man Revealed - Maybe the next one ...
