As an actress, I realize that viewers are entitled to have whatever feelings they want about the characters they watch. But as a human being, I’m concerned that so many people react to Skyler with such venom. Could it be that they can’t stand a woman who won’t suffer silently or ‘stand by her man’? That they despise her because she won’t back down or give up? Or because she is, in fact, Walter’s equal?…

I’m very serious about what I write and who I allow to produce the music, because I want to make sure it’s a true album, and not just something pushed out there to create hype and more fame for myself.

[on why she’s not inspired to direct] I can’t deal with actors! I can’t deal with myself. We’re neurotic and miserable… I love doing what I’m doing, but while I’m doing it, I’m miserable.

I’m an odd girl when it comes to what’s sexy and what isn’t. The particularly luscious-looking ones are not attractive to me. Ken [Kenneth Branagh] is really smart, and that’s what’s sexy.

I love the adventure that comes with this work, the travel and all that. But also the craft, the storytelling. From a kid, I remember enjoying certain books and getting swept away in movies.

Died Today (August 10th): Isaac Hayes

isaachayes.jpgIsaac Hayes (1942–2008)

Born: August 20, 1942 in Covington, Tennessee, USA
Died: August 10, 2008 (age 65) in Memphis, Tennessee, USA

Married to:
Adjowa Hayes (May 2005 – 10 August 2008) (his death) (1 child)

His performance as “Chef” in the TV series South Park (1997) was supposed to be a one-time event, but audience reaction was so positive, “Chef” became a regular character.

First African American composer to win an Oscar for Best Original Song (1972) for The Theme from Shaft (1971).

“There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire ends and intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs of others begins. Religious beliefs are sacred to people, and at all times should be respected and honored. As a civil rights activist of the past 40 years, I cannot support a show that disrespects those beliefs and practices.” – On why he quit South Park (1997) in 2006.

Happy Birthday: Antonio Banderas

antoniobanderas.jpgAntonio Banderas

Born: August 10, 1960 in Málaga, Málaga, Andalucía, Spain

Married to:
Melanie Griffith (14 May 1996 – 4 December 2015) (divorced) (1 child)
Ana Leza (27 July 1987 – 1996) (divorced)

Became a fan of his wife, Melanie Griffith, long before he met her. He had first seen her in the film Something Wild (1986) and thought she was beautiful and later told a Spanish magazine in 1989 that he would love to meet her. In 1995, when she first arrived on the set of Two Much (1996), he sprinted out of his trailer like a starstruck schoolboy to introduce himself. Nervously, he asked her how old she was. She cursed, laughed, and finally answered she was 37. They soon became a couple and stayed together for 19 years.
