[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

On the hotel's roof deck, the best place to watch the night view of Manhattan has been cleared ahead of time.

The live band provided by the organizer played the golden saxophone song "Forever in love" in an inconspicuous corner. The melodious music made the atmosphere more romantic and beautiful, and the dim lights surrounded the couple dancing together under the stars.

"To be honest——" Leonardo smiled slightly, as if he was staring at Josie in front of him affectionately, "I really didn't expect, J, that you would spend a hundred thousand dollars to photograph me."

Josie was basically immune to Leonardo's gaze, and reminded: "This is a charitable donation, Leo, and it can be used to deduct taxes."

"Aha, don't spoil the atmosphere." Leonardo smiled more, but his eyes became sincere, "It seems that we have never really dated, this is the first time."

Josie just smiled, didn't respond to the topic, but leaned lightly on Leonardo's shoulder.

Because of the relationship between embracing and dancing, the two were already very close. Now Leonardo could smell the slightly cold woody fragrance on Josie's body more clearly, and couldn't help feeling a little distracted.

The starry night was bright and the night breeze was blowing, and the girl in his arms was also unparalleled in beauty, as if returning to the night when they filmed "Titanic" many years ago.

She always showed up at surprising moments and made him feel comforted and happy from the bottom of his heart.

"What are you thinking, Josie?" Leonardo asked softly.

"No." Josie's tone was also very relaxed, "I didn't think about anything, I just enjoyed this moment."

The corners of Leonardo's mouth rose quietly, and his heart suddenly softened because of Josie's answer.

He held back, didn't hold back, tentatively said: "Listen, am I crazy, or are we both thinking this way..."

Having said that, Leonardo's heartbeat began to speed up suddenly, he paused, and subconsciously pursed his slightly dry lips.

"What do you think?" Josie raised her eyes and looked at Leonardo.

Leonardo followed the trend and lowered his head, but found that he couldn't take his eyes off Josie's face at all, because at this moment, his own figure was reflected in her rich blue eyes, which was much brighter than this starry sky. All more intoxicating.

For a moment, he lost his words.

Josie didn't urge her, she waited patiently for Leonardo to recover, and led him to dance slowly instead of the guest.

For Leonardo, it seemed that only two or three seconds had passed, and it seemed that two centuries had passed. He finally pretended to be relaxed and said, "I'm wondering if we should try."

"Ha, Leo, here you go again!" Josie shook her head and laughed, she didn't seem to take Leonardo's proposal seriously at all, "This joke is not funny at all. Besides, I already have a very good boy, He makes me happy."

"Oh, yes, forgive me, I almost forgot." Leonardo shrugged.

The smile on his face was impeccable, and there seemed to be no obvious ambiguity in his eyes. As long as he tried his best to ignore the faint sourness in his heart, he could take it as a joke of his own.

But still couldn't help asking: "Does that boy really make you happy?"

——He didn't even want to call Chris Evans by his first name, and it was his last courtesy not to call him "pet boy".

"Of course. That's why we're together." Josie replied without hesitation, and then asked, "Okay, do you want something to drink?"

With that said, she let go of Leonardo and walked towards the bar.

"Tequila, with lime." Leonardo felt that he needed a bite of a lime slice now.

However, Josie couldn't understand Leonardo's delicate mood, so she came to the bar that only served two people tonight and motioned to the bartender: "Two glasses of tequila, one with lime."

Well, she doesn't even drink like he does now.

Leonardo thought silently.

He knew that the idea that came out of nowhere was ridiculous, but he couldn't control his brain a little bit, it seemed that there was something wrong with it, just after seeing that little boy last time and accidentally getting hungover.

Josie handed Leonardo a glass of tequila, took a sip of her own, and asked, "What are you thinking, Leo?"

"I was wondering—" Leonardo took a bite of a lime slice, and said casually, "Will you accept the award as a producer at next year's Oscars?"

"The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," the final installment in the epic series, couldn't help but be honored by the Academy, and it's widely believed to be already the best picture winner at next year's Oscars.

It is precisely because of the great success of one project after another that quickly pushed Josie to the top of the Hollywood pyramid, whether as a superstar or as a super producer.

Maybe some people used to think, "Oh, my God, how old is she?", but this year more and more people think, "Oh, it's Josie Horton." People have become more accustomed to her excellence .

So, he doesn't deserve her at all...

After all, I am notorious, whether it is salary, works, fame and status, there is still a distance visible to the naked eye from her, and I don't even know if there is a chance to overcome it in this life.

Thinking of this, Leonardo felt depressed, and at the same time he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Because she actually took his rash proposal as a joke.

Also because she just took his rash proposal as a joke.

This is good.

No?

They are still best friends with each other, which is stronger than any romantic relationship.

After meeting some people in New York, Josie flew back to Los Angeles for a group photo shoot for Paramount's 90th anniversary.

Many industry executives and movie stars who had worked for Paramount or are still working came that day, such as Shirley Lansing, Josie's current capable person, Tobey Maguire, who became popular because of "Spiderman", I have been regretting Diane Keaton, who was not able to vacation with Josie, and Al Pacino, who had a relationship with Diane Keaton and worked with Josie in "The Devil's Advocate", and so on.

Even among them, Josie still undoubtedly occupies the center of the group photo, with the legendary superstar Harrison Ford standing on the right, and the popular Tom Cruise's current girlfriend Penello sitting on the left Pu Cruz, and in front of her is Jane Fonda, the Oscar-winning actress.

"She's really pretty enough today."

Diagonally far behind Josie, Sharon Stone, who had been out of breath for a long time, couldn't help muttering, with very complicated emotions.

They once had friction on the red carpet shortly after Josie's debut.

At that time, Sharon Stone became famous with "Basic Instinct" and was nominated for Oscar for Best Actress for "Casino". It was at the peak of her career;

Meanwhile, Josie Horton was just a young idol with fair luck. Who would have thought that she would have a situation in the future. In less than ten years, she would become a "superstar" and even control the world to a certain extent. Hollywood?

Oh this is crazy.

To be honest, Sharon Stone didn't even dare to do it in her dreams, but this girl who made her so jealous actually did it. While making people feel powerless, they also have to fear her.

Even more complicated than Sharon Stone was Claire Denise.

This actress, who is full of talents and connections, is famous for beating Josie Horton for the roles in "Little Women" and "Romeo and Juliet". It cannot be compared with Josie Horton's perfect and unrepeatable work resume.

People around her said that if she had won the role in "Titanic" back then, if she hadn't insisted on going to Yale for further studies...the fate between them should be reversed, everything that "Josie Horton" has It should belong to "Claire Denise".

But is that really the case?

Claire Denise is very clear that she is not as strong and perfect as these people—especially her mother—think.

What she knew more clearly was that Josie Horton was irreplaceable.

Claire Denise thinks that she can't stay firm during the long filming cycle of "Titanic" like Josie Horton. After becoming popular all over the world, she still doesn't have to be in person to shoot a scene. The action scenes in the battle suffered from injuries all over the body, and he did not forget his heart in the ubiquitous temptation of Hollywood.

Josie Horton can play with those sinister and cunning old white men in Hollywood, but Claire Denise is still caught in a crazy and hopeless emotional entanglement with a married man.

This is probably the key to why Josie Horton is the youngest Oscar-winning actress record holder, and she still only plays a small role in "The Hours" where Nicole Kidman won the best actress award where it is.

Claire Denise thought rather self-deprecatingly.

But in any case, it is precisely because of the existence of Josie Horton that many actresses and female practitioners in Hollywood have really seen an exciting career path.

In his nearly 30-year career, this unprecedented superstar has not only produced countless acclaimed and well-received film and television works, but also has a long-lasting female action film series "The Trap of Stealing the Sky", and has also created a world of film and television. A classic screen image.

She can be a wise and calm robot psychology expert ("I, Robot"), a top killer who fell in love with her husband ("Mr. and Mrs. Smith"), and an invincible super agent to rescue her sister ("Taken"). An unforgettable vampire queen ("True Love's Kiss"), or a resolute full-metal warrior ("Edge of Tomorrow");

It could also be an elite lawyer who simultaneously acts as a power broker ("The Insider"), a strong woman who makes a fake with her subordinates ("Fake Marriage"), a lonely and brave astronaut ("Moon"), and a critical fashion magazine editor in "Wearing Prada". "The Queen"), and even a careerist with a bad personality who tramples men on the soles of his feet ("Mad Love").

Josie Horton's career is not very long and prolific, but it is undeniable that this talented and beautiful actress has always been synonymous with "good works". Box office dominance has left a strong mark in the history of Hollywood movies.

Moreover, it is precisely because her screen images are almost all independent and strong women that the major Hollywood film companies set off a wave of imitation, produced many feminist films one after another, and also emerged a large number of outstanding female filmmakers, which changed countless people. Ordinary girls' plans and choices for the future.

For example, she successfully played a robot psychology expert in "I, Robot" in 2005, which directly led to many young people's strong interest in robot programming and design. Even Columbia University's psychology major received applications that year also increased significantly.

Josie Horton is not a radical feminist fighter, but it is precisely because of her subtle superstar effect, active promotion of charity activities and continuous operation of charitable foundations that not only help many disadvantaged women in Hollywood and outside Hollywood, but also It indirectly affects the attitude of the whole society and even the whole world towards women.

"VOGUE" described her style: "Leading people's definition of beauty."

"Vanity Fair" crowned her: "Her Majesty the Queen of Hollywood, the unique superstar of all ages."

In the past 30 years, there have been too many honorary titles and praises belonging to and only belonged to "Josie Horton", and the time was adjusted back to the present, at the scene of the 76th Academy Awards ceremony, here A scene destined to be engraved in film history is about to be born.

So dramatic and full of inevitability, it is completely unprecedented that the best picture presenter of this year is also a key person who made and starred in this film.

The evening of March 2004, 2.

When Josie Horton stepped onto the huge stage of the Dolby Theater to present the best picture award, everyone knew that there would be no suspense about the winner of the grand prize tonight, and it would only be produced and distributed by her film company The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

The lights in the theater are magnificent.

Accompanied by thunderous applause and music, the audience's eyes were focused on the only figure, and when she stood in the center of the stage, all eyes were on her and there was no sound.
