Description: Hello, it's Tuesday, March 20, 2007. I'm Rebecca Field with a UPI entertainment update. An Israeli official is asking actor and activist Leonardo DiCaprio for help in the Middle East. People Magazine says Israel's Vice Premier Shimon Peres met with DiCaprio in Tel Aviv last week to discuss how the actor could promote the peace process in the region. Peres is also requesting the actor continue campaigning for environmental protection. DiCaprio reportedly says he would do all he could to help. Actress Vanessa Williams is being honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The "Ugly Betty" co-star was joined by friends and family yesterday in Hollywood at a ceremony honoring her. Williams is also a Grammy nominated singer and was crowned Miss America in 1984. She's appeared on Broadway and was nominated for a Tony Award in 2002 for the musical "Into the Woods." Model Naomi Campbell is reporting for duty. Yesterday, she began her 5 days of community service at a New York Sanitation garage. It's part of her sentence for throwing a cell phone at her housekeeper. Campbell arrived for her first day in high fashion...black stiletto heels and a fitted jacket. But she traded them in for work boots, gloves and an orange vest. There's a new movie in the works that'll focus on former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. An entertainment magazine says the screenplay is being written and will tell the story of Thatcher's decision to go to war against Argentina over the Falkland Islands in1982. The conservative and strong willed leader served from 1979-1990. There's no word yet on who will play Thatcher. The internet community MySpace.com is getting political. Users who want to learn more about the 2008 U.S. elections can now visit a new spot on the site called Impact Channel. A spokesman for MySpace says the portal is meant to connect users around the world with politicians, non-profit groups and civic organizations. He says he hopes it'll increase political knowledge and involvement. The site will offer voter registration tools, candidate profiles, event and job announcements, and even video. That's all for now.

Joel2016 ::: Favorites The only reason why there is ANY violence at all is the fault of the Palestinians. They are the ones with the motive to attack due to their hateful religion. Israel is only RESPONDING decisively to this aggression to deter it. If Hamas ceased to exist, the violence would stop TODAY. 07-05-27 22:10:14 __________________________________________________
