Ready To Tear Clothes Off For Patti Smith
 
  Feb 7, 2008

Every now and then, we get caught up in one of these cool stories that turns us into the proverbial string in a game of telephone. There was the time we used your comments to help The Rock choose his Shazam! role, or that time we talked Zac Efron into give his fans a special wink. Now, we seem caught up in a love sandwich between “Juno” sweetie Ellen Page and punk rock pioneer Patti Smith.

You might remember the recent article we ran that had the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famer thanking Page for a shout-out in the hit movie. Needless to say, when we told Page about the message from one of her idols recently, she was beside herself.

“Oh my God, that’s incredible!” the Oscar-nominated 20-year-old shrieked, swelling with so much pride that she nearly resembled her pregnant character. “That is really cool!”

  Feb 6, 2008

With the Oscars looming, the Best Actress nominees have some major fashion dilemmas on their hands as they decide what to wear on the red carpet – but Ellen Page reckons she’s got it sorted.

“I’m really, really lucky,” she told reporters at the Academy Awards Nominees luncheon in LA.

“I work with wonderful people who really care about what I want and really just help me figure it out and relate (what I wear) to how I feel and how comfortable I feel in my style, I suppose, or lack of it, however they look at it!”

Juno’s Ellen Page: I’m glad I wasn’t a child star
 
  Jan 23, 2008

Juno star Ellen Page has revealed she’s glad her parents refused to let her become a child star.

The now 20 year old actress was offered a role in a high profile sitcom when she was 13 but her parents made her turn it down, telling her she was too young to handle the pressures of fame.

While she admits to being angry at the time, she now sees their decision was “a good thing”: “I would have had to move to LA and I can’t even imagine what I would be like now. [My parents] said keep up your grades and then you can act.”

Ellen is in the running to the Best Actress Oscar for her role in the critically acclaimed teen pregnancy film.

Ellen Page remains grounded
 
  Jan 16, 2008

Despite landing a Best Actress Oscar nomination this week, actress Ellen Page apparently remains grounded.

“I think you can lose your equilibrium,” she told Movie Maker magazine. “But I think that has a lot to do with how your personality chooses to handle it. I mean I have my own place in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and that’s where I like to spend my free time. I think being here where I’m from – which is a small city on the east coast of Canada – there’s just a different mentality here.”

In fact it seems the Juno actress reckons it’s best to stay out of the paparazzi spotlight of Los Angeles, and keep things low key.

“I think if I jumped ship and moved to LA, well sometimes you can easily get absorbed.

“I’m very grateful for the way things are going for me right now,” she adds. “I mean, really, it all feels very surreal.”
