I couldn't find a thread on this. Source: FoxNews And I know everyone rolled their eyes at this but here is a place where you can listen to her version of "Summertime". I think she has a nice voice. www.maplanete.ch/carnet/?p=1372

I love her movies, but I can't stand her as a person. She's a total bitch in real life if you meet her.

She's a total b**ch in real life if you meet her. ....well, I can tell she's a bit snobbish from how she slammed people who thank God in their acceptance speeches: "Some people can be so goofy, especially the ones that say, 'I'd like to thank our Lord Jesus up above!' I'm like, 'For the love of God, keep your mouth shut. That's why the world is so f***ed up because God is focusing solely on your career.'" Now that was just arrogant and completely uncalled for!

She was good in "Matchpoint" but awful in "Scoop"- she tried to be funny and she is not funny AT ALL. That was embarrassing. I hope her singing is better than her comedy acting.

My bad. /edit/ Are you sure? lmao I remember my newspaper talked about them as a couple last weekend and how she said she didn't care if he hooked up with other girls or something equally distorted by the media.

I will admit, as terrible as yet another actress-singer crossover sounds, the fact that its an album of Tom Waits covers adds some interest. At least it's not crappy pop.

I think it shows that she isn't doing this for major mainstream success and that she wants to make an album because she actually wants to sing. Not for more fame or whatever.

The only reason she was good in Match Point was because she's good at playing these desperate misstress roles. I mean she kind of looks like a mistress.

Remember she had this thing for hoping to prove her intelligence since everyone thinks she's a dumb bimbo?
ding, ding, ding! This is it, the "different," non-pop album is the proof. After she has done this, and if things go the way she planned, she's going to get the smart, cosmopolitan, chick status.

And by then, quit music for good. And focus on "smart" acting roles full time.
