Ghosts of girlfriends past

Comfort zones don’t come much plusher than the one habitually occupied by Matthew McConaughey, who must read the words “arrogant, torso-flaunting alpha male” in script synopses and think: “That’ll do.” This bed-hopping playboy has been there, done J Lo in The Wedding Planner, Sarah Jessica Parker in Failure to Launch, and Kate Hudson – twice.

McConaughey’s childhood sweetheart is played by Jennifer Garner, whose job, while Connor is given a guided tour of his entire sexual history, is to stand around looking slighted. She’s capable of quite a lot more than this, and so is director Mark Waters (Freaky Friday, Mean Girls). Still, there’s an undertone of satisfying bitterness before the gloop sets in: the recriminations are just an ounce more cutting and tart than you’re ready for. McConaughey, who will be just as funny as Douglas in 20 years time, looks suitably chastened. There’s only one scene with his shirt off.

Kirstie Alley Wants to Lose 80 Pounds to Wear a Bikini Again



Kirstie Alley says despite gaining back all the weight she lost as a Jenny Craig spokeswoman that she is ready to work to put on a bikini again.

Kirstie Alley first opened up on The Oprah Show about her weight battle in November 2004, when she signed on to be the spokeswoman for Jenny Craig. At the time, Kirstie told Oprah a paparazzi photo had jolted her out of denial and made her face her weight problem for the first time.


“Don’t you look around and see what you want to look like?” Alley, 58, asked Winfrey. “Im like, ‘Look, Michelle Obama’s guns. I could have those arms,” she said.

Alley gains her weight gain – after a drastic weight loss that included an appearance on “Oprah” in a bikini – was a result of a lack of urgency.
