The bunny and the Biebs. Playboy bunny Sarah Harris has accused Justin Bieber of groping her at a party. Harris, 22, told Australia's The Edge 96.1's Mike E & Emma show on Monday, Sept. 28, that the alleged incident took place at the Midsummer Night's Dream party at the Playboy Mansion in L.A. last month. According to Harris, the situation escalated after one of her girlfriends and fellow bunnies wouldn't stop griping about how Bieber refused to take a picture with her. At the time, Harris rushed to [...]...

The ninth edition of the Dallas International Film Festival is well underway here in Texas, and I'm pleased to report that it continues to provide a much-needed boost to the local film culture. I moved to the city in 2006, about a year before the inaguaral edition of the fest, and then served as a volunteer screener and note-writer for a little while, where I got to know James Faust, now Artistic Director, and Sarah Harris, now senior programmer. Their continued presence ensures a consistent flavor to the program, which is off-beat and unique, to say the least, reflecting their own personal tastes, as well as seeking to provide something that is not present in other festivals in town or at theaters that screen independent...

Network Ten is betting heavily on new and returning reality shows in 2015 to maintain the momentum of this year.s ratings growth and to make the company a more attractive take-over target as potential buyers circle.
News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch has confirmed the 50%-owned Foxtel is looking at buying a small stake in the loss-making broadcaster, reportedly in partnership with Discovery Communications. Cross-media laws would limit Foxtel to a 14.9% stake.
Murdoch told News' Agm that independent advisers have been hired to look at the potential purchase but he ruled out buying his son Lachlan.s stake in Ten.
There were only two fresh dramas among eight new local productions highlighted at Ten.s upfronts presentation on Thursday night.
FremantleMedia Australia will produce Mary: The Making Of A Princess, a telemovie dramatizing the fairytale of the Tasmanian-born real estate agent who met a Danish crown prince in a Sydney pub and became Mary,...

My current hometown of Dallas, Texas, plays host to the Dallas International Film Festival annually, and next year those important dates will be April 9-19, 2015. New films may now be submitted to the Dallas Film Society for consideration.This will be the ninth annual edition. As a point of full disclosure, I will acknowledge that I served as a screener for the festival during its first edition, where I got to know programmers James Faust and Sarah Harris. They are both still programming films for the festival, albeit with additional responsibilities; Mr. Faust serves as Artistic Director and Ms. Harris is Senior Programmer. After eight editions of the festival, I can honestly say: I have no idea what they will program. If you ask me again...

Studio 10 averaged 61,000 from 8.30-10.30am versus Seven.s The Morning Show.s 189,000 and Nine.s Mornings. 135,000.
.Considering the amount of promotional budgets against Wake Up, circa $1.5 mill, these are not bad numbers,. said Fusion Media's Steve Allen.
.The audience numbers day 1 are a little soft on our prediction of three weeks ago but there and thereabouts. It is going to be a tough fortnight for Wake Up just to hold onto figures..
Allen said Ten's morning TV director Adam Boland, who was poached from Seven, .knows television, especially morning television and especially chat shows. He knows what you need to have to be successful. Not...

Kate Upton‘s up on the cover of Vogue U.K.‘s January 2013, but for once, we’re not focusing on how pretty the model looks. Because the first line of the profile the fashion features editor, Sarah Harris, has written about her steals the shows. ”Standing at 5ft 10in, with her outsize bosoms and long slender legs, Kate Upton has a body that belongs to the supermodel era of modelling,” she writes. And honestly, “outsize bosoms” is the best phrase we’ve heard in a really long time! She continues with, “… In the flesh, this all-American beauty resembles a young Anna Nicole Smith or Marilyn Monroe; her face is very pretty and perfectly symmetrical (with the exception of that mole, so exquisitely placed to the right, it looks like it might have been drawn on by the modelling gods). She also has the ability, with the slightest of expressions,...

Ryan Piers Williams’ “The Dry Land,” a Sundance Film Festival favorite, took home the top prize at the Dallas International Film Festival Friday evening, earning a $25,000 cash prize for the Target Filmmaker Award for Best Narrative Feature. In addition, Lucy Walker’s “Waste Land” received a $25,000 cash prize for the Target Filmmaker Award for Best Documentary Feature.
“Dry Land” stars America Ferrera and Wilmer Valderrama were on hand during the fest. Their film follows a U.S. soldier as he returns home from Iraq to Texas and tries to assimilate back into society.
The Documentary competition jury also gave a Special Jury Prize to Michael Pertnoy’s and Michael Kleiman’s “The Last Survivor” and a Special Mention for Editing (for Claire Didier’s work on the film) to Mark Landsman’s “Thunder Soul.”
