The 44-year-old actor : who is returning for his third film as the iconic British spy in �Skyfall' : admits he has "fun" taking hisclothes off while portraying the secret agent and hopes it adds some "sexiness" to the 007 film franchise. He said: "I don't actually read those bits. I don't care how many times I have to do it. It's going to be harder and harder the older I get. It's just fun. There's enough sexiness in the movie with the girls : and hopefully me as well : but it's a little bit of a gag now." Daniel stars opposite Javier Bardem in �Skyfall' and while he admits there was no free time to spend with the 43-year-old star : who portrays latest Bond villain Raoul Silva - during filming, he is keen to watch a game of rugby with the �No Country For Old Men' actor when they get a chance.

He got metickets. I'd love to go to watch a rugby game with him. "There's just no time [to hang out], unfortunately. I'm on set every day. I wish we had more time. But we have a long year ahead of us, so hopefully we'll see each other in a more chilled state." Daniel admits Javier has put in a "superb" performance as Raoul thanks to his knowledge of how a successful Bond villain should act. He added to ShortList magazine: "Well, Javier is a brilliant actor, so that's taken care of. He knows what a Bond villain is and he's given it everything he's got, which is a lot, let me tell you."

Lucy Davis Details Bulimia Hell In Open Letter British actress Lucy Davis has told how her bulimia struggle once left her with burst blood vessels in her eyes as a result of throwing up her food. Davis, who starred in the U.K. version of The Office, has previously admitted she suffers from issues with food, but now she has laid bare her battle with anorexia and bulimia in a new open letter, published in Britain's The Sun. The star reveals she used to starve herself for days before devouring a week's worth of meals in a single sitting, and once feared her eating disorders had driven her "truly insane". She writes, "By the start of 2011, I started bingeing more and more. I couldn't get through a day : even half a day : without bingeing. "Then, one day in February 2011, I was in aLondon hotel room and binged on a huge amount of food. I started crying, fell to the floor and let out a sort of scream. I was desperate : and I thought I was truly insane. I couldn't believe food had me in its grip like this. The idea of bringing it back up came into my head. I'd never done it before, but all I could think of was getting this food out of me. I was unprepared for the high that came with it. It was a powerful addiction. And I told no one. "A few months later, I woke with burst blood vessels in my eyes after purging the day before." Davis joined an Overeaters Anonymous (Oa) group after her brother confronted her about her condition, and insists she now has a much healthier attitude towards her weight. She adds, "I went to an Oa meeting and got a sponsor, someone who has had an eating disorderand helps with the 12 Steps. I went to five meetings a week : and still do. I admitted to myself and others I was anorexic and bulimic. I started to feel less ashamed and guilty. My recovery does not make my life perfect but it has given me a different set of eyes with which to see everything. I don't know what I weigh now. I just ask my doctor to let me know if he is happy with what I weigh."

"I hadn't read the script yet, and they were so hush-hush about the script that I had to sit and read it in (director) Curtis (Hanson's) office because they weren't releasing it. But when I read it, I thought, Oh, this is kinda slick! They had me go to Detroit to see if me and Em (Eminem) was going to havechemistry." Phifer immediately took a liking to the hip-hop star and agreed to play his best friend in the film, adding, "This cat (Eminem) became my man so fast that I was like, �This is gonna be dope.'

I feel like we really got to play off of that when we were putting the tour together, and made it more cinematic and all about telling these really great stories. "We put great visuals along with it to take people on a ride throughout the show. I really enjoyed putting all of this together and more than anything I want people to feel like they get their money's worth, because money is tight and there are not a lot of extra funds lying around. "If someone spent that money to come see us play, I just want them to feel like it was so totally worth it."

Steel Magnolias Remake Pulls In The Viewers The Steel Magnolias remake, aired on Sunday (October 7, 2012) achieved impressive viewing figures, proving to be Lifetime's most successful show since at least 2004, reports Fastmaza.com. It was the third-most watched original telecast ever for thechannel. A remake of the 1989 feature surrounding the lives of six resilient female friends of various ages : this time with an all African American cast led by Queen Latifah - delivered an average of 6.5 million total viewers in its premiere, according to Nielsen. "We couldn't be happier with the great response "Steel Magnolias" and "Abducted: The Carlina White Story" received from viewers this weekend," said Rob Sharenow, Lifetime's executive vice president of programming in a statement. More specifically, The Sony Pictures Television-produced film averaged 3.2 million adults 25-54, which, being a key demographic is great news for Lifetime. On Saturday (October 6, 2012) the premiere of the Lifetime original "Abducted: The Carlina White Story" also generated strong viewership, earning 4.1 million total viewers, but Steel Magnolias was the clear winner; the film scored the studio's best audience since Life Is Not a Fairy Tale: The Fantasia Barrino Story in 2006 and was the top cable movie among total viewers since 2007.

Julia Roberts and Sally Field, for instance, starred in the 80's version.

"I've always been somebody that's gone out and worked with the focus that one day my time will come and actually that's the way that I got to where I am now."

"Here's the thing with these packages they show before our dance � they're a minute and a half," Ballas explained. "We did just that. We're fine. We've danced together before. This isn't our firstseason together. The last season we did together, back in season 11, we didn't argue once. Not even� nothing. Just chill. So the fact that we've made it through a season and a quarter and now it's our first fight? It's amazing because at some point you fight with your partner." Palin had accused Ballas of "being bummed" that he isn't dancing with former partners Shawn Johnson andSabrina Bryan, and that he's emotionally, and sometimes physically, absent during their rehearsal time, so it was mighty big of Mark to stand up for her like that. "We're like family," Ballas continued. "We love each other. Sometimes people p*** each other off. You guys know if you're in a personal relationship,working relationship, things happen and we carried on." Palin, slightly tenderly, admitted: "Mark is reassuring and we got through this week and I'm thankful for it. I'm thankful that we got that fight out of the way and we're just moving along."

Stephen Gately's Brother Records Tribute Song Stephen Gately's brother has released a single in tribute to the late BOYZONE star, three years after his death. Tony Gately has recorded He's Still Around to help raise funds for Cardiac Risk in the Young (Cry) after losing his singer sibling in 2009 to an undiagnosed heart condition. Tony admits the ballad is particularly meaningful to him as his brother was fond of it, telling entertainment site Fastmaza.com , "It's a song Stephen liked. He had heard the original of the song, called She's Still Around, and he really liked it. I don't know if he was going to put it to the lads (in Boyzone) to put it on an album� but then he passed and the song got shelved. "If fans can relate to it, or maybe somebody out there who has lost a loved one can relate to this that'll make me happy. I said to the producer, �I don't care if it sells one copy or 10,000.' That's it out there : I've done it for my brother, and that's all that matters to me."
