Rupert Grint & Robert Pattinson In The Running To Play Prince Harry In ‘The Spare’
Posted on 03. Oct, 2009 by CSS.
Robert Pattinson and Rupert Grint are competing for the role of Prince Harry in a biopic about the British monarch’s life.
Director Peter Kosminsky — who will helm the project — is casting for The Spare, which will depict pivotal points in Harry’s life, including losing his mother Princess Diana, his romance with on again/off again flame Chelsy Davy, and serving for the Army in Afghanistan.
The White Oleander lensman is courting British actors Grint and Pattinson for the lead role, as well as Pride and Prejudice star Rupert Friend, according to a report from London’s Daily Star.
“I feel a sense of compassion for the guy (Prince Harry). His parents break up in the most spectacularly public way, his mother dies in the most tragic and, again, public way and everything is picked over. He’s a man born to no role. His brother’s the heir and Harry’s the spare,” Kosminsky explains.

Paris Hilton Names Herself 'Icon Of The Decade'
Posted on 16. Feb, 2009 by CSS.
Kanye West has already appointed himself “the voice of our generation,” and now Paris Hilton has stepped forward to accept “icon of the decade” honors.
The world is going to Hell in a hand-basket!
In an interview with E! News over the weekend, the sex-crazed socialite compared herself to fellow blonde’s Marilyn Monroe and Princess Diana, explaining that the women’s timeless influence on pop culture mirrors her own.
“There’s nobody in the world like me. I think every decade has an iconic blonde, like Marilyn Monroe or Princess Diana and, right now, I’m that icon.”
It’s amazing what the ego does to protect itself.
I don’t even know how to respond to this other than she is definitely not who she thinks she is… I perceive an Icon to be more of an A-List caliber, but way to nominate yourself! I’m just baffled she would consider herself an equal counter part to Princess Diana…
Paris Hilton is more of this decades Party Girl than Icon.
