Jessica Chastain reaches new heights with major milestone
Jessica Chastain, who is famous for her Oscar winning performance in The Eyes of Tammy Faye, and other acclaimed performances in Zero Dark Thirty, The Help, and Intersteller, has reached new heights of success as she was honored with her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
On September 4, the Hollywood actress showed gratitude for the support that she has received from her family and pals in her speech.
Sharing that she managed to fulfil her ambition, the IT Chapter 2 actress began, “My grandmother took me. It was the first time I realised it was a job that people could have, and after watching it, I was like, ‘Oh, I’m an actor.’”
Recalling her initial career journey, she continued, “I felt it really young. Even though I dropped out of high school and went back and got my diploma later on, I was voted ‘Most Talented’ in our yearbook. So very early on, I was getting feedback that it was something I was good at, and that helped a lot.”
“It’s something I think is really important for actors to learn, and it was such an example in that scenario, that one person’s opinion isn’t everyone else’s,” the American actress gave advice to new actors.
“All of a sudden, I started from nothing to get leads, and it was because people went to see that play — and they thought I did a good job,” she said while admitting that 2013’s Salomé was the turning point of the career, the 48-year-old actress.
Before concluding, Jessica Chastain shared, I’m excited to play characters that are really complex, where I’m OK if someone leaves my film and goes, ‘I’m not sure I liked it.’ I want to push people a little bit outside their comfort zone.”
Lewis Hamilton’s love life is back in the headlines as new details have resurfaced about his past connections with the Kardashians.
The F1 star, 41, reportedly sparked romance rumors with model Kendall Jenner years before his reported love speculations with Kim Kardashian.
Lewis and Kim reportedly had a very romantic stay at the 85-acre estate which is known for hosting the rich and famous.
The mother of four reportedly flew in from Los Angeles on her private jet, meanwhile Lewis arrived by helicopter.
However, back in the time when Kendall and Lewis’ romance rumours all over the internet, the 30-year-old star was seen wearing his gold chain during the Monaco Grand Prix but the F1 star denied anything romantic, saying they were just friends.
Though the racing driver has always said that his friendship with the super model was good and they were just friends, but fans continued to wonder if they were more than friends before Kim entered.
With Lewis now reportedly dating Kim, the focus has shifted now but the old rumors remain a talking point for celebrity watchers around the world.
The Princess of Wales arrived in west Wales to tour the family-run business as part of her ongoing efforts to champion British textile producers and independent enterprises.
The Princess, 44, put on a stylish display as she visited Melin Tregwynt, a woollen mill weaving traditional Welsh designs in a remote wooded valley on the Pembrokeshire coast.
During her trip to the far west of the country on Tuesday, February 3, Catherine saw a woollen mill, which creates unique blankets and other products using longstanding practices.
Kensington Palace released Princess Kate’s video from the site, sharing details of the future queen’s engagements.
The visits are part of Princess Kate’s ongoing immersion in the textile and fashion industry as she highlights the heritage skills and modern work techniques that go into creating beautiful, original garments.
Her day out also includes visiting a brand once backed by sister-in-law Meghan Markle. Hiut Denim, a premium jeans manufacturer based in Cardigan that was propelled to international attention after being worn by the Duchess of Sussex.
The Welsh brand holds a notable place in recent royal fashion history, having been thrust into the global spotlight in 2018 when Harry’s wife chose Hiut’s high-waisted Dina skinny jeans for an official visit to Cardiff alongside Prince Harry.
She kicked off the day at Melin Tregwynt, about 260 miles west of London, which dates from 1841 and is still employing over 40 local people who create woollen blankets, scarves and cushions that are sold across the world.
She was taken around by the mill’s director, Louise Clarke, and shown how the mill is preserving traditional craft skills by drawing on generations of expertise among its staff to mentor and inspire the latest young apprentices.
