Monte Carlo

Monte Carlo is a film that is coming out in the UK on the 24th August! The film stars Selena Gomez as Grace,her best friend Emma (Katie Cassidy) and her stepsister Meg (Leighton Meester.) They all set off on a trip to Paris but Grace is mistaken for a British heiress called Cordelia Winthrop Scott. The three of them get whisked away to Monte Carlo, so Grace, Emma and Meg all live the life of a princess, take all Cordelia’s clothes and live in her suite in Monte Carlo! I’m really looking forward to it and I think I will really like it. It’s full of adventure, comedy and romance I bet you’ll love it too!!!

Big Time Rush

Big time rush (also know as BTR) are 4 very talented guys - Kendall Schmidt (brother of Kevin Schmidt who stars in Cheaper by the Dozen and Cheaper by the Dozen 2), Carlos Pena Jr. (who plays a small role as king bee in Nickelodeon’s ‘Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide’), Logan Henderson (who is surprisingly good at beat-boxing and rapping) and James Maslow (who played a love interest to Carly and Sam in iCarly).

The show itself is about 4 hockey players from Minnesota. When James goes for an audition the guys end up auditioning as well. Gustavo Roucqe (the band’s manager/producer) and Kelly (Gustavo’s assistant) arrive in Minnesota to tell Kendall they want to make him famous but Kendall refuses unless they form a boy band. Now the Knight family -Kendall, his mum and his little sister Katie- live in the Palm Woods Hotel along with the new boy bond, Big Time Rush. A few stars such as Jordan Sparks guest star on this brilliant show.

Consequently I think you and your friends should watch the hilariously awesome programme, Big Time Rush!!!

Letters to Juliet

Letters to Juliet is all about a woman called Sophie who works for a magazine, and her fiancé Victor who is a chef and is obsessed with cooking. But unfortunately that becomes a problem because Sophie starts to think he cares more about food then her! Just for fun, Sophie and Victor decide to have a ‘pre-honeymoon’ so they go to Verona. As Victor is at a restaurant, the lonely Sophie decides to start answering some ‘letters to Juliet’, a special thing they do in Verona. After finding an old letter sent from a teenage girl called Claire 50 years ago about her boyfriend who she had broken up with but now lost, hidden in a crack of the wall, Sophie decides to send a letter back to Claire. The next day Sophie gets a visit from Claire’s grandson Charlie, who tells her that it was a very bad idea to have sent that letter as Claire has decided to find her one true love, Lorenzo. Sophie then decides to travel with them! After finding many Lorenzo’s, but none of them the right ones, will Claire ever find her true love? Letters to Juliet is an excellent film and I really recommend it.
