On landing the Twilight role: "Oh, my God, I wanted this part so badly! I worked my butt off for it because I absolutely love Alice, my character. she's sweet, sexy, and a killer! so when they told me I got it, I tried to play it all cool, you know, for about a minute."
On training for Eclipse: "I get to fight in Eclipse. My trainer is teaching me MMA right now. So. Cool. But I feel if I was in a real fight, I'd get my a- kicked...We're just now moving up to more advanced stuff, toward being able to actually kick somebody's a-."

Freida Pinto Could Be Next Bond Girl
We've learned recently that the rumor that Freida Pinto would be signing with Estee Lauder is not true. But maybe this rumor that Freida will be the next Bond girl will turn out to be true.
Executive producer Barbara Broccoli is eager for her to join the cast - after earmarking Slumdog director Danny Boyle for the top job.
A source said: "Freida came to the attention of the Bond team when they were casting Quantum of Solace.
"She was too young at the time to have a part as a love interest for a secret agent.
"But she has blossomed into an incredibly stunning young woman and would look perfect on Daniel Craig's arm."
The Sun also says that Slumdog Millioinaire director Danny Boyle could be directing the next Bond film, which would
naturally give Freida a great chance of signing on as well.
"Danny Boyle is favourite to take the helm of the next movie, which would increase Freida's chances of a starring role."
Freida, who has befriended A-Listers including Angelina Jolie, hired Kate Winslet's LA agent in her bid for success.
Freida is certainly the focus of a lot of attention and rumors. She will have to careful about which projects she selects. Hopefully, a role on the next Bond movie will be one of them. Jennifer Aniston would be a great choice as well.

Jennifer Aniston: the Next Bond Girl?
Jennifer Aniston appears on the cover of Elle UK. Because the magazine simply will not let it go, she is asked for the one millionth time about her divorce from Brad Pitt. Jen takes the high road, saying:
"No matter what I say, things will always be taken out of context and misinterpreted, will always be turned around to make it seem as though I won't let something go, or that I just keep talking about it over and over."
"I don't owe anybody anything. I don't owe anybody my side of the story. There are no sides! There is no bad guy and there is no good guy. There are no villains and there is no heroine in this story. It's just not the case."
She also talks about her diet: "I'm a realist. I know that if I eat nothing but burgers and chips, I’m not going to be hired for the parts I normally would. That might be fine one day, but not right now."
As for her career, she says she's dying to do an action film.
"I get offered funny, quirky, pretty roles. I'd love to do an action movie. James Bond! Glamour! Daniel Craig! S--tloads of fun!"
We think Jen would make a fabulous action hero: she's in fantastic shape and could certainly handle the physical demands on the set. We wonder if she chatted with Daniel Craig at the Oscars about her secret desire to be in the next Bond film?

What Does a Bond Girl Smell Like?
Product placement in television and films is nothing new. But this is the first time we've seen a fragrance which was specifically created to evoke a movie.
Avon has announced a collaboration with the James Bond entertainment franchise to create a new signature Bond Girl 007 women's fragrance.
British actress Gemma Arterton, who plays the role of Agent Fields in the upcoming Bond film, will be the face of the new fragrance. She will appear in TV and print advertising when Bond Girl 007 launches globally in October 2008 in conjunction with the worldwide release of Quantum of Solace.
"I'm thrilled to be working with two such iconic and established brands," said Gemma Arterton. "The Bond Girl 007 fragrance embodies everything a Bond Girl represents -- intelligence, sexiness and confidence."
The fragrance, created by Firmenich, is supposed to
"evoke the glamour, confidence and sensuality of the famous femmes fatale of the Bond franchise." So what does a Bond girl smell like? It features top notes of velvety white peach and orange blossom followed by mid-notes of jasmine, calypso orchid and freesia. The drydown consists of amber, cashmere wood and patchouli.
The bottle is supposed to resemble a female body and the cap is an homage to a Bond spy gadget. Will women buy a fragrance that's supposed to make them smell like a Bond girl? We shall see....
