Rugby Players Kiss in Paris
Paris Ile-de-France, the French regional tourism committee, is promoting Paris as the venue in which rugby and love come together with a controversial print campaign featuring kissing rugby union players.With the Rugby Union World Cup coming to France in September, the locals are gearing up to demonstrate their capacity for humour. The campaign, online at C’est So Paris (www.cestsoparis.com), shows front row members of a scrum locking lips. The text: “Enjoy rugby in the capital of love”. Other members of the scrum have their hands placed in what could be taken to be amorous positions.
The C’est So Paris campaign, begun in December 2006, is being developed by BBDP & Fils, Paris, by creative directors Guillaume Chifflot and Manoëlle Van Der Vaeren, art director Antoine Mathon, copywriter François Faure, and photographer Cedric Delsaux.

Stars Flock to The Dark Knight Premiere
Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Christian Bale, Maggie Gyllenhaal, director Christopher Nolan and Morgan Freeman (Photograph from Wireimage)The black carpet was rolled out at the AMC Loews Lincoln Square cinemas for the feverishly-anticipated premiere of The Dark Knight. The film's cast and crew appeared at the premiere, but most talk, as it has been for the past since months, was about missing cast member Heath Ledger, whose sudden death in January. The film's star, Christian Bale, said Ledger "steals the movie, I'm quite happy to say that he absolutely does."
Michael Caine predicted Ledger would be nominated for a Oscar for his turn as the Joker, and said, "When you see this movie, you'll see one of the best performances not from him — but ever." And Ledger's parents issued a statement to Roger Friedman after they attended the premiere, "The Dark Knight is everything we hoped it would be and more. Heath loved the experience of creating this character and working on the film. We are so proud of our boy.”

Porn Company Boss Claims Victory in Hendrix Sex Tap Battle
The bosses of a DVD porn company are claiming victory in their battle over the authenticity of a Jimi Hendrix sex romp, claiming the rock legend's estate has failed to prove the star of the raunchy footage isn't the late guitar great.
Vivid Entertainment released Jimi Hendrix: The Sex Tape on DVD in May and company bosses were immediately challenged over the authenticity of the footage.
The controversial video depicted a man having sex with two women, and Vivid insisted the star was Hendrix.
Vivid co-chairman Steven Hirsch even offered Experience Hendrix, LLC officials $100,000 if they could prove the man in the video wasn't the rock star.
Sixty days after the offer, the Hendrix estate has failed to come up with verifiable proof that Hendrix is not the star of Jimi Hendrix: The Sex Tape.
Hirsch says, "In early May we made a good faith offer through our attorneys to pay $100,000 to Experience Hendrix if it could offer proof within 60 days that our tape was not authentic.
"We always knew it was real and were confident that the Hendrix heirs would be unable to substantiate their claims."
Hirsch's claims have been backed by Hendrix's former road manager Neville Chesters and groupie icon Cynthia (Plaster Caster) Albritton, who held Hendrix's penis in her hands while she made a plaster cast of it.

One Cool Brother - More harm than good?
Barack Obama on the cover of the new Ebony titled "25 Coolest Brothers of All Time", which also includes Denzel, Prince and Samuel L Jackson to name a few.Although Obama really does look like a "cool brother", (he actually looks like my brother back in London, but I digress...) could this portrayal actually have a negative affect on certain demographics, i.e the blue collar white American voters?
Whatcha think?

He will start his sentence in January...."I feel ashamed that I broke the laws of this country, a country that has been so good for me" the Russian born 42 year-old was reported to have said.
eBay was ordered to pay LVHM $61.3 million
A French court ordered EBAY to pay LVMH Moët Hennessy $61.3 million in damages for allowing counterfeit goods to be sold on the auction site.
After a two-year legal process the Paris Tribunal de Commerce found eBay guilty of gross misconduct in failing to prevent the sale of fake products.
eBay announced that it will appeal the decision. It said it has always removed listings if they were counterfeit and blames Louis Vuitton for its problems saying that it continues to use an outdated business model.

NAS - The New Face of Fila
Rapper Nas has broken his tradition of sidestepping brand partnerships and inked a one-year partnership with athletic apparel company Fila.Fila will offer reciprocal financial support for Nas' print and TV ad campaign as well as his upcoming tour in support of his untitled album, due July 15 via Def Jam. In return, the MC will wear Fila products and co-create an apparel line that draws from fashions of the late '80s.
"My best friend Will and I loved Fila," Nas tells Billboard.biz. "It represented prestige and everything that was cool to us. When Will passed, we buried him in a black Fila sweat suit, so doing a deal with them has a lot of significance for me."
According to Fila president John Epstein, it was a natural match. "One of my executives spotted Nas shopping in our Manhattan store and struck up a conversation with him," Epstein says. "Nas isn't interested in selling out. He's interested in being true, and that fits with our brand."
Nostalgia aside, some may view Epstein as brave to co-brand his company with an MC who's pledged to unpack America's racial struggles.
"I had some trepidation, and then I started talking to 16- to 20-year-old kids in focus groups," Epstein says. "They looked at me like I was crazy for not understanding his message of positive change. Nas is relevant to his followers and I don't have to understand it as long as they do."

Prince Charles is a Drink Driver...
Spotted @ UK Tabloid - The SUNPRINCE CHARLES is helping to save the planet – by running his famous Aston Martin on WHITE WINE.
The classic gas-guzzler, a DB6 Volante given to the Prince by the Queen to mark his 21st birthday in 1970, has been overhauled to make it more environmentally-friendly.
It now runs on bioethanol extracted from local vineyards’ surplus plonk – at a cost of £1.10 ($2.00) per litre. [for those that don't know, 1 gallon = approx 3.78 litre's]
And, with the eco-friendly fuel burning at nearly 10 per cent more efficiently than petrol/gas the 150mph motor even goes FASTER at 165mph.
The Aston Martin quaffs 3½ bottles of wine per mile. But at £1.10 a litre, the eco-Prince beats the current fuel crisis and saves money at the pumps.The 59-year-old Royal’s scheme was revealed yesterday as Clarence House published his annual accounts.
