Heidi Klum Nude!

Really.

At AdWeek, "Heidi Klum Gets Naked for Latest 'Project Runway' Ad." And Chicago Tribune, "'Project Runway': Heidi Klum bares all to promote Season 9."

Nicole Kidman: The Interview

The Public Relations Office at Hearst Magazines sent me the cover image, and Nicole Kidman's one classy dame so here you go ...



At Harper's Bazaar:

And for the record, I've avoided celebrity blogging this past week while trying to learn about and report on the tragedy in Tucson. That said, Robert Stacy McCain's been keeping up with the hottie headlines, for example, "We Hate You, Jake Gyllenhaal."



Expect more on the celebrity side of things in upcoming days. It's been a sad week.

Alana Blanchard Rule 5

I think Bob Belvedere and Irish Cicero have been keeping up the pace, and good thing too --- I need some linkage boys!! Plus, American Perspective goes with an all-time Rule 5 favorite: "Anne Hathaway, pretty as a picture."



So, keeping with the spirit, enjoy some Alana Blanchard:

As always, Linkmaster Smith will be highlighting the week's hotness for Sunday Rule 5.

Paulina Porizkova on 'Good Morning America'

Hey, I have to admit is was nice waking up yesterday to Paulina talking politics with George Stephanopoulos. She's an interesting woman, one of my favorite models of all time, and great for a Rule 5 entry. That said, P.J. O'Rourke steals the show:

'What is Sexy'

Perfect for Rule 5, from Victoria's Secret:

Hat Tip: Theo Spark.

Helen Mirren in 'Red'

I think Dana Pico posted only one Rule 5 entry, on Helen Mirren. (And took some heat for it in the comments.) Well, maybe he can get away with this trailer. Helen Mirren is hot.

Minka Kelly — Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive 2010

For this week's Rule 5, with video at the link:

Blake Lively at Interview

Consider this a Rule 5 entry, with special mention for American Perspective and Pirate's Cove. Plus a bonus entry at Theo Spark's.



Interestingly, Ben Affleck performs the interview:

AFFLECK: We met when you came to do The Town, and when you turned up, I was a little taken aback. I was like, "How did you learn this Boston accent? How did you learn all of this stuff?" Which I thought was hard to get because I had been doing readings with all of these actresses in New York and L.A., and it was just hard to find the right person. You were by far the best, and when I asked you how you got everything down, it turned out that you had tried to work with this one dialect coach, and then tried another one, and then just started doing all of this incredibly thorough, diligent, independent research on your own-seeking out people who spoke the way your character does, seeking out people whose own life experiences you could draw upon. How did you get to the point where that became your approach? Because it's certainly nothing I ever did at any point in my twenties. Where does that instinct come from?



LIVELY: I don't know. I think it comes from the fact that I never really thought about acting as a child. It wasn't like, "This is the career that I want to pursue." So when I first started acting, I was more concerned with just being on a set and all of the woes of that, and I didn't really know it or understand it as a craft yet. When I saw my first movie, I was fine, but I thought, "Oh, my heavens. It's not about just standing there on my mark and saying these lines. I need to actually act." It was great to have my first opportunity be such a big role, but also not great because all of the mistakes I made-the entire learning process was on the big screen for everyone to see. That's been something, movie by movie, that I've been able to grow and learn from-that I always need to work harder to be better because it's still a new craft for me.



AFFLECK: Did anyone help you learn that?



LIVELY: I just did it on my own. I've never worked with an acting coach, but my parents had acting classes and I grew up around them my whole life just because I didn't have a babysitter. I'm actually a very shy person-that's a big secret, so don't tell-but being in those classes pushed me to break out of that a little bit. It's like nature versus nurture: I'm naturally very shy, but I was brought up in a way where I had to get up and get out of that.



AFFLECK: I wouldn't really describe you as shy. That hasn't been my experience of you.



LIVELY: Well, I had to be bold with you! I had to be brave because this role was terrifying. But it was all smoke and mirrors because I read the script and I didn't know how I couldn't do it. I loved this character so much. I was a little selfish in wanting to do it because I also thought, Well, maybe I'm not the best person for this, but I really want it. I didn't know how to do a good Boston accent, so I went and got a dialect coach, and she was really good, but it was a real proper accent I was learning, and my character is from the projects. But she'd lived in Charlestown her whole life, and the kind of accent she would have had is very different from an across-the-board Boston accent. So one of my best friends, Jennifer, who is a hairdresser on Gossip Girl, is from Boston and she had her family come down to New York one weekend.

Rule 5 Saturday: Paulina Porizkova

Well, looks like Rule 5 weekend has gotten off to a great start!

My good friend Opus #6 has posted her link-fest entry, "Paulina Porzikova: A Top Notch Supermodel."

And that's a reminder for me: I first started Ruling 5-ing with Paulina Porizkova at Sports Illustrated. She's a darling.

Who else is joining the fun? At The Point of a Gun?

Great stuff, although not too much babe-blogging over there. Which is why folks head over to Theo Spark's for their totties! Never a disappointment at Bob Belvedere's or Washington Rebel, for that matter. And Gator Doug gets it going a bit as well. (And not to mention WyBlog!)

More weekend Rule 5 a bit later today!

Candice Swanepoel, Chanel Iman and Erin Heatherton — Mini-Rule 5 Saturday

I'm sure readers would prefer some weekend hotness blogging over my battles with the extremist left, so perhaps some Victoria's Secret beauties might be a little more cheerful:

And as always, I look forward to Linkmaster Smith's Sunday roundup.

And see Bob Belvedere, "Some Lion Cubs Have All The Luck…", The Daley Gator, "Your Saturday Linkapalooza," Opus #6, "Brooke Shields - Beauty Through the Years," and Washington Rebel, "Sweet Mystery of Life."
