Health magazine interviewed Neve Campbell for the upcoming April issue, and shared the following excerpts:
The eco-conscious Toronto native vents to Health about the pressures of looking slim and beautiful in Hollywood, what she finds inspiring, and her starring role in Scream 4, in the April 2011 issue, hitting newsstands March 18.
On Scream 4 costar Courteney Cox:

“We fell in love with each other…She’s one of the coolest women I’ve ever met.”
On Party of Five costar Jennifer Love Hewitt:
“She is a stunning, beautiful, voluptuous, confident, talented young woman.”
On diets she has tried and regretted:
“I did the Atkins thing about seven years ago, and it didn’t make me feel good at all. And if you look at it, that much fat and meat is just wrong.”
On feeling the pressure to get thin for a role:
“There’s definitely a standard that is expected…I watched too many of my dancer friends throwing up. They’d end up really sick, or in the hospital, or not being able to have children. And I won’t do that to myself. Maybe I’m not a stick, but I’m really healthy and happy, and I think I look good.”
On the obsession with celebrities’ weights:
“Women put the pressure on ourselves. Let’s look toward the environment and charity, [and] have less of a focus on our appearance…It’s ridiculous. I remember watching CNN once, and on the bottom ticker it said something like, ‘Beyoncé no longer wants to be called Bootylicious.’”

At the “Hall Pass” premiere, “Extra” caught up with Alyssa Milano, now pregnant and apparently in the mood for some veggies.
“I’m craving broccoli,” Milano revealed. “How weird is that?” The actress said she isn’t sure of the baby’s gender yet, but she’ll “probably” find out.
At the same event, Extra talked to “Hall Pass” star Owen Wilson about his baby, Robert Ford.
“For his first birthday, it will be a Ford Fiesta! See? I’m already using this kid for laughs,” Wilson said.
“Hall Pass” opens in theaters today.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 2010
A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)
When I first heard there was a remake in the works for “A Nightmare on Elm Street,” I was happier than a termite in a furniture factory. Yes, that’s a lame analogy, but I think you get what I’m trying to say.
The new “A Nightmare on Elm Street” film will be in theaters April 30, and I will be the first person in line during opening night.
Jackie Earle Haley will portray Freddy Krueger instead of actor Robert Englund.
I know you’re rolling your eyes and wondering how many Freddy Krueger movies can they make?
I wondered that too. I figured the franchise would be over because it seems like they’ve already made 100 Krueger films.
Regardless, I’ve always been a sucker for horror movies. Whether they are corny, or whether they are genuinely scary, I will still watch them. I’m also anticipating the movie “Scream 4,” which will be in theaters next year.
I’ve seen all the knock offs of “Night of the Living Dead,” and I’m probably the only person on the planet who watched “Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood” and liked every second of it.
During the 1980s, my parents prohibited me from watching the original “A Nightmare on Elm Street” and “Friday the 13th” movies because they felt a 5-year-old kid shouldn’t be exposed to those graphic films.
But that didn’t stop me. I used to sneak and watch them anyway. Freddy only killed people in their dreams while they were sleep.
I was afraid Freddy was going to kill me while I was asleep, so I always slept with the lights on to keep me awake just to be on the safe side.
The preview for the new “Nightmare on Elm Street” is posted below.

Kenny Chesney’s 3D concert movie

Country singer Kenny Chesney is the latest musician who will have a concert film in movie theaters.
The film titled “Kenny Chesney: Summer in 3D” will be in theaters April 21. Footage for the film was taped during Chesney’s Sun City Carnival tour last year.
I’ve noticed there has been a trend with musicians releasing their concert films in the theaters.
They are often cheap to produce, but they rake in a respectable amount of money at the box office.
For example “Michael Jackson’s This Is It” earned $72 million at the box office in the United States, “Hannah Montana/Miley Cyrus Best of both Worlds” earned $65 million and ”Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience made $19 million.

Janet Jackson and Tyler Perry on Oprah, discusses new movie, Michael’s death

Singer/actress Janet Jackson and film director Tyler Perry were guests on Friday’s episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show.”
Jackson and Perry discussed their new movie “Why Did I Get Married Too,” and Jackson discussed the death of her brother Michael and the interventions they had with him.
Excerpts from the interview are posted below.
“I got a call from an assistant. She had said that there was something on TV about my brother being ill. So I immediately called home, and I was able to reach my sister La Toya, my nephew, Austin, and I think my brother, Jermaine, at the time. They were on their way to the hospital. I can’t remember exactly who I wound up calling back, to see how things were going. That’s when they told me he had passed.”"It’s hard for me to look at an image of his or listen to his music on the radio.”
“There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about him. All of us in the family think about him every single day. The last time I saw him, which was two days before my birthday at my parents’ surprise party, I was being silly like I always did when we were kids, and he kept looking at me and just cracking up.”
“We knew that he had a problem. We all did. I think a lot of people think that we were in denial, which we weren’t at all. We tried interventions several times. He was very much still in denial.”
(from Tyler Perry) “I wouldn’t dare say anything more than she would want me to, but they really, really tried. The entire family. I want the whole world to know how much they tried. There were all those reports that they didn’t do anything. That’s not true.”
