Demi Moore Wants Bruce Willis
It seems that in the starry family of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, everything is getting better. At least Demi demands that her hubby become the father of her fourth child.
Moreover, "Die Hard" doesn't just want to serve as a "sperm donor", but hopes for the reunion of the broken family.
However, 35-year-old Moore told friends that she is doing fine on her own. According to her, she simply wants her three daughters to have a little brother. It is even rumored that Moore is blackmailing Willis. She gave him an ultimatum: if he doesn't sleep with her before the end of 1998, she will head to a sperm bank to find a suitable donor.
One of the actress's friends remarked: "Demi has always wanted another child, and she is praying for a boy."
8-)) Rubber Instead of Silicone!?
Englishwoman Julia McDonagh managed to combine two of men's strongest passions: love for cars and love for women. She invented and designed... rubber bras.
Creating these items of women's apparel took just a little bit of imagination and some rubber tires. This extravagant underwear enjoys great popularity worldwide, but for some reason, its most ardent fans turned out to be Japanese and American women.
Mickey Rourke Stays True to Himself
At 42 years old, Mickey hasn't lost a shred of his legendary unpredictability.
Recently, he thoroughly shocked the patrons of the London restaurant "Orsini's". Dining there in the company of an unknown blonde beauty, he finished a bowl of soup, then suddenly stood up and, right in front of the stunned crowd, took off his black trousers, and then... his underwear! After which he sat back down and calmly continued his meal. The waiter serving Rourke was slightly embarrassed, but like a true Englishman, said nothing and merely took extra care not to spill anything on the eccentric guest. Having finished dinner, Mickey stood up, paid the bill, got dressed, and left.
Starting with this issue, we begin a short series of articles covering the lives of actors: Peta Wilson, Roy Dupuis.
Part 1: NIKITA Named PETA
The star of the TV series La Femme Nikita, Peta Wilson, never dreamed of ending up on a TV screen. If only because she hadn't laid eyes on such a screen for quite a long time. And when she saw one for the first time, she remained unimpressed and rushed out to the yard: it was much more interesting out there...
Indeed, how could flat creatures from a box amaze her, when just outside the door a huge Great Dane, a little goat, a couple of cats, two wild boars caught and tamed by her father, a beloved kangaroo, and her younger brother Rob—who was chasing this entire menagerie across the yard with loud whoops—were already waiting?
Within minutes, her mother Karlene White and father Darcy Wilson had forgotten about the television too, rushing to the window to make sure their offspring hadn't beaten each other up, hadn't bitten (:) any of the animals, hadn't tried to drag (:) the Great Dane up a tree, feed the cats to the pigs (;), or stuff the goat (8-)) into the kangaroo's pouch. Most of the time, that was exactly what was happening.
The kangaroo, the lack of a television, and other exotic details are explained quite simply. It took place in Australia, and although Peta was born in the country's largest city, Sydney, the family moved soon after. By her twelfth birthday, she had changed residences exactly twelve times. Her father served as a junior officer in the Australian Army, and her mother worked in the catering corps, so a nomadic lifestyle was the norm.
For the most part, the Wilsons ended up in garrisons in remote, uncivilized corners of New Zealand, and eventually wound up in Papua New Guinea.
As you can imagine, televisions were virtually nonexistent there :(. But if the adults suffered from this, the children were completely happy. Their companions were mostly dark-skinned local kids, and their games were wild and close to nature. Little Peta Wilson didn't watch cartoons :( about Mickey Mouse or Tom and Jerry; instead, she dove for corals, caught butterflies of incredible beauty, easily told venomous snakes apart from harmless ones, and scrambled through trees like an agile monkey. "Peta is my eldest son!" her father used to repeat with pride.
However, he said that later; the beginning of their life in Papua New Guinea did not look promising. In 1975, the four-year-old girl contracted malaria. Severe bouts of fever struck one after another, and doctors literally pulled the child back from the brink of death several times. The illness persisted for nine months. And when it finally receded, her father quickly forgot all the doctors' orders regarding diets, gentle routines, and the like. As a military man, physical conditioning and hard training were much closer to his heart, and he chose his own method to nurse the child back to health: "drop and give me twenty". The method worked. Ten years later, Peta joined the Australian junior national netball team (a local variation of basketball?), and later became the youngest player on the senior national squad. Furthermore, the Wilson family yacht crew—consisting of daughter Peta, son Rob, and father Darcy—won an Australian regatta and became national sailing champions.
To be fair, Peta's acting debut happened earlier, in one of her school theater productions. But the role was very modest: in a children's fairytale play, the future Nikita played... a silent, sprawling ;)) tree. In short, her career didn't start off smoothly.

Roy Dupuis: Smiled Upon by Fortune
Roy Dupuis was born on April 21 (almost like LENIN :) in 1963, and since that memorable day, according to eyewitnesses, he has grown noticeably and matured. Although, it must be said, he never quite reached the standard all-American star height: today he stands at about 176 cm. (Then again, someone like Stallone could only dream of such height :). Despite his striking looks and piercing green eyes (or perhaps because of them), Roy is still unmarried. Apparently, having no family allows him to dedicate his free time to other people in need of attention. Roy is actively involved in fundraising for the MIRA Foundation, a charity organization specializing in training guide dogs for the blind. His latest feat in the charitable field was participating alongside other film and fashion stars in the "Défi Vision" car races organized by the same MIRA Foundation. After a tense competition, Roy finished 23rd, but didn't seem upset at all. "In races like this," he told journalists, "everyone wins—most of all those for whose benefit the competition is held, that is, people with disabilities." He assured the audience that he firmly intends to continue participating in such events as long as they are organized, and if they ever stop, he will host something similar himself. For example, a charity dinner or lunch, as cooking is one of his greatest passions. However, he cooks intricate dishes only for friends. For himself, he prefers plain fried potatoes and black coffee over any exotic delicacies.
On set, he drinks coffee constantly, though for different reasons: to relax between takes or to focus before an emotionally demanding scene.
