Danes' Dancing Man


Whoever says romance is dead hasn't met Hugh Dancy. A spy spotted the Ella Enchanted star wooing his lady, Claire Danes, by showing off some smooth moves while dancing to Rihanna's hit Umbrella at -- of all places -- the gym.

"Hugh interrupted Claire from on the treadmill to do a dance where he pretended to hold an umbrella, kind of like Mary Poppins," a source told OK! magazine.

According to the source, the actress seemed to enjoy the show and "giggled like a schoolgirl."

It's only fitting, since he thinks his customer "tends to be a dreamer with her head in the clouds," that Peter Som would love to try skydiving. "I'm scared of heights really. But facing my fears is something I'm into these days," says the designer. And these days, Som has every reason for that face to be a happy one.

"A collection first has to make me feel good," says Som. Actress Claire Danes in a Peter Som original.

He has survived on his own for seven years, without the backup of a perfume or a handbag line, and while adorable he may be, he has never held the title of critics' darling. All he has to show for himself are clothes that airily embrace the lighter side of a fine romance.

Trust us, finding a happy moment in fashion is not easy--nor is it all that easy to find time for.

"I've always wanted to make the beautiful things that come into my head," says Som. "What you don't realize when you're merely thinking of being a designer is that it's only going to be one eighth of what you do. There's so much marketing and finance involved. Getting that dress of your dreams on your girl means you have to build a machine to get it to her."

Me & Orson Welles to Start Filming


Coming-of-age romantic comedy Me & Orson Welles will start principal photography in the Isle of Man on February 24th, before moving to Pinewood Studios, London locations and New York.

Zac Efron (Hairspray, “High School Musical”) and Claire Danes (Stardust, Romeo & Juliet) head a starry ensemble cast in the CinemaNX production of the romantic theatrical comedy “Me & Orson Welles,” to be filmed by Oscar®-nominated director Richard Linklater (School of Rock, Before Sunset).

The screenplay by Holly Gent Palmo and Vincent Palmo Jr. is based on the novel by Robert Kaplow, a coming-of-age story set in the heady world of New York theatre. Efron plays a teenage student who lucks his way into a minor role in the 1937 Mercury Theatre production of “Julius Caesar,” directed by 22-year-old genius Orson Welles. In the words of Kaplow’s protagonist: “This is the story of one week in my life. I was seventeen. It was the week I slept in Orson Welles’s pajamas. It was the week I fell in love. It was the week I fell out of love.”

Newcomer Christian McKay, an alumnus of RADA and the Royal Shakespeare Company, stars as Orson Welles, alongside Ben Chaplin (The New World, The Truth About Cats And Dogs) as George Coulouris, Kelly Reilly, Eddie Marsan as John Houseman and Leo Bill as Norman Lloyd. The featured cast also includes Imogen Poots and National Theatre and RSC actor Aidan McArdle. Further casting to be announced.
