QUOTE OF THE DAY: NOEL CLARKE TALKS ‘HOOD’ FLICKS, BLACK BRITISH ACTORS AND THE FUTURE

“I feel like it’s important for me as a filmmaker to keep evolving. And as a person in general, I think it’s important to always want to progress and do better. But more specifically, as a member of the black community, I’ve seen that we have progressed so far, and it’s now time to move on. “If people wanna say this [street dramas] trend is my fault, I’ll take that on the chin. I’m proud that I did those films and I’m []

UK FILM: THE KNOT – STARRING NOEL CLARKE (POSTER)

Yes yet another film starring Noel Clarke. He also co-wrote the screenplay. Film synopsis: Soulmates Alexandra (Talulah Riley) and Jeremy (Matthew McNulty) are getting married. At least that’s the plan. Unfortunately for them, nonchalant best man Peter (Noel Clarke), bridesmaid Sarah (Mena Suvari) and an army of naysayers haven’t heard they’re meant to be together. Can missing bridesmaids, crashed cars, a trip to A&E, and a delivery of pigs testicles stand in the way of true love? Choice FM morning breakfast show host Kojo will also appear []

PUBLICITY MOVE OF THE DAY: KANYE WEST AND KIMMY CALL THE PAPS AND VISIT CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian visited sick children in a Los Angeles children’s hospital and made sure the paparazzi were there to take photographs of their time spent with the kids. Click HERE to view more photographs. I am sure the children were happy to see Kanye (not sure about jancrow Kim). They are both attention seeking duppies so I can’t help but question their motives here especially Kim’s. Why couldn’t they visit these sick children in private? Why invite the paparazzi to tag along? You have really hit a all time []

MAD NEWS FILM REVIEW: STORAGE 24 (STARRING NOEL CLARKE)

Whenever a project that involves actor and writer Noel Clarke is about to be released the level of Twitter hype surrounding it goes in to overdrive.  So naturally I was curious and decided to see if his latest flick Storage 24 lived up to all the hype and if it really is “AMAZING”. Storage 24 co-written and co-produced by Clarke is set in a large 24-hour storage unit. Clarke plays Charlie a man who is on the brink emotionally after being unceremoniously dumped by []

QUOTE OF THE DAY: ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER – ‘EUROVISION SONG CONTEST IS RACIST’

When asked why he thought the United Kingdom’s song entries kept on flopping at the annual Eurovision Song Contest songwriter and composer Andrew Lloyd Webber said, ”I don’t think there’s any point beating around the bush. ‘I’ll put it to you by asking you a question. ‘Did you see the Eurovision  Song Contest this year? ”If you had seen it, you might have noticed one thing – I don’t think there   was one black face on the programme.” ”At the press conference in Moscow (in 2009), I was []

N-Dubz star turned solo artist the ridiculous Dappy has released the “freestyle” I’m Coming (Tarzan pt 2). On the track he fires shots at some of the UK “URBAN” music elite (rappers Scorcher and Bashy), Simon Cowell and former X-Factor winners Joe McElderry and Alexandra Burke. “I heard Simon Cowell thinks I’m a little w**ker/ And that I’m getting on his t*ts like cancer/ I don’t want to start mentioning names (f**k it)/ Where they all now? They’re bankrupt. “Joe McElderry, oh what a stand []
