Uber-Hotties Jonathan Rhys-Meyers and Scarlett Johansson Star in Match Point
If you’re as much of a movie freak as I am and you haven’t yet seen the newest Woody Allen flick, Match Point then you simply must run out and see it immediately because this movie fucking rocks! I went in not really knowing what the movie was about beyond a basic plot thread of “British Tennis Pro meets American Actress in London” and I was completely blown away! As with movies like The Crying Game,A History of Violence and Million Dollar Baby it is really to your advantage to see this film knowing as little in advance as possible because the surprises and plot twists are delicious. Go see it and leave a comment and tell me what you thought.

As a recording artist and songwriter, interviews are part of every week for me, if not every day. Many interviewers have often compiled their questions based on what information they did or did not receive from my press biography. Gail has not only written the most honest biography ever printed about me and my career, but her original interview questions made for a very interesting and relative read.
This month’s victims in the Starpolish Critic’s Corner include The Nick Lee Band, NYC Singer songwriter Bobby Fingeroth and amazing soul/dance artist, Tanisha Monet.
