An AICN Hottie Appears On THE_PRACTICE this Sunday!!!
Hey folks, Harry here... Hercules the Strong had his computer struck dumb by a bolt of lightning from Mt Olympus and is working to get the talking box working again. So I will abuse my powers to post the wishes of the hottest AICN reader I've come across today. And now she is my slave... Ok slave, you must drive to Austin and become my in-house entertainment for LIFE! Muahahahahhahaha... Can you imagine being able to say, "I'm not a porn star, but I play one on TV"? That rules. So here we go with a letter from a typical AICN femme reader who you can catch on THE PRACTICE, when you ain't watching that Episode 2 trailer! Here she is...
dear harry "head geek"
the rerun of my guest star on "the practice" airs this sun 3/10- at
11:30pm-abc
(at least it deos in the LA market) its titled " ties that bind"-
and i play a porn star on trial for killing her husband while filming a
bondage film with him.
what is amazing about this- is that it was my 1st big role, which i
booked without ANY representation and barely 3 lines to my credit. i was
auditioning against series reg's from other shows-- and somehowi booked it!?
im still amazed i even got the audition.!!
( actually-- i ve booked EVERYTHING on my resume ( IMBD is not complete
list) without any representation-- and that is completely unheard of for an
unknown. )
if you could drop a note on your site suggesting that people take a look at
the episode-- i would be your slave for life.
im hot sassy, witty, and ferocious...
im attaching a poloroid as proof!
xoxoxooxxoxoxo( smoothering you with kisses)
Loriele New
I did it on a whim. After doing about 30 some odd inteviews in the past week and a half, I understand what she was going through. She is excited for having a good part in a damn fine television show, she writes in to say "Hey look what I did all on my own!" Shot in the dark, hopes of maybe catching a sympathetic eye out there somewhere. I'm currently at home watching Wong Kar Wei's IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE on dvd... falling utterly enchanted in love with the movie, when suddenly the email bell rings and I glance at the screen and smirk at her letter.
I get things like this everyday. Excited letters about a lucky break here or there... Little pieces of dreams. Thousands of girls head out to Hollywood with the dream. Dozens end up making it. Hundreds languish in obscurity. And more end up victimized and scarred by the experience. On this day, at this time I answered a beautiful girl's wish... to get noticed. To have a little light shone her way.
Tell me, what was the last nice thing you've done for someone.
Harry
Besides... look at her... she so pwettttty...

yep yep.

You get all the girls! Well, all the pictures of all the girls, anyway. She's skinny, yeah, but at least she's not AS skinny as some of these starlets you see around today. What happened to the days of the voluptous film star? Mamie Van Doren, Marilyn Monroe, Jane Russell? Sigh...
-
I'm gonna buy her a belt...ah well, maybe not.
-
Full disclosure - I'm about 15 pounds over - so I usually don't critique other's weight - but I agree you could gain a few pounds, honey. Nothing radical, just give yourself a little more fat to round out those curves and soften your face. By the way, if Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Penelope Cruz, Madonna, Selma Hayek, or Lara Flynn Boyle happen to be reading - please do the same. Being in shape is great, but Jesus, who can get hot over a skeleton?

by inkymae
geez, harry, what is the rational for posting this. yeah, she's hot, but so what, I can see that stuff at maxim.com.
-
and she wants to be a fat mans slave
-
This is sad Harry, very sad...
Justify this for me please...is every anorexic model type who writes to harry going to get a writeup on what's coming up for them now. I think the only good that will come out of this is if the actors in Hollywood all finally get that agents get 10% because the do 10% of the work. If that... -
Gotta agree with inkymae: this is easily the dumbest thing I've seen on this site. Considering some of the articles that have appeared here, that's saying something.
-
Harry, do you think she is actually a regular on this site? Just a wannabe actress looking for publicity. Hey, i wanna be a director! Should i start sending you all my film ideas and make you believe i am getting them made right now? Man, i'd be the hottest young director no one has ever heard of! I have some geektastic ideas that you are gonna drool over! Man, AIC is sad, but this is the lamest post i have ever seen. Oh, and just cause you posted her pic don't mean she is gonna sleep with you, she's on her way over to her boyfriend/managers house right now to laugh with him at your pathetic attempts to impress the ladies.
-
Gotta agree with most what's being posted here. She is very attractive, but needs to eat some food. They say the camera adds ten pounds -- if so, then she has to be anorexic, looks unhealthy. ALSO, yup, one of the lamest excuses for running a story on AICN in quite some time, and that's saying something. Harry, yr being used - BIG TIME.
-
Ain't It Cool Gossip--Harry, where's the "news" part? Unconfirmed rumours, rants, and now promotions for the next pro-ana Carrie Moss clone? You can start a whole section on gossip, and yeah, I'd probably read it, but let's keep the news credible and pertinent. Otherwise, I'll stick to Corona Coming Attractions and Garth's Dark Horizons.
-
and has a BOMB in his ribcage. Regular AICNer? Not - more like a savvy actress playing the fat man's fiddle for a free promo.
-
Ok...so a reasonably good looking wanna be actress has a RERUN of a GUEST SPOT on The Practice and you run it as if its NEWS????
Hey, Harry- I have a few friends who are actors who could use the exposure. Mind slapping them up on your site? They'll be your "special friend" for sure for doing that. Jesus....that's f-in SAD.
Moriarty- how can you stand to see this? You are (like it or not) the figurehead of internet entertainment jounalism for the mainstream media. This makes me want to vomit.
-
Addendum:
This, as far as I'm concerned, is a proverbial "last straw". I'd like a showing of hands (or talkbacks, as the case may be) please. Who thinks that Harry should explain what the hell he was thinking when he posted this no-talent, slightly desperate woman's picture on the Net. I know we're all thinking he thought he'd get lucky but any man worth his own testes knows this reeks of opportunistic set up.
I'm sorry if this sounds really harsh, but this "news" angers me. Apple quicktime links every second article are bad enough, but this is almost unforgivable.
Advice to harry: spend fifty bucks and get a hooker. It's cheaper than selling your credibility. -
There is absolutely nothing wrong with the physical appearance of this actress. She's a stunning california blonde. She's also fairly smart as this is the first time we've ever seen anyone grab free pub at AICN. Also, since there's a 100% chance she's reading this talk back, you people are ruining what should be a very exciting day in her career. I, for one, say way to go, Loriele. I hope you become famous and have a fun evening reading this junk tonight. (now I have good karma, and the rest of you talkbackers can SUCK IT!)
-
I actually used to see the Practice until it started to suck with too much melodrama. It also sucks because the woman who plays bobbys wife and camryn manheim started acting horribly. Dylan McDermot is way over the top and, blah blah blah IT SUCKS!!!!
-
You have the most popular film website on the net. geeks, industry people and everyone that cares about movies comes to this site every friggin day.
You are ranked as one of the most powerful people in hollywood because of this site.
I quote Peter Parker's Uncle Ben "Remember, with great power comes great responsibility"

Jesus, guys. Grow the fuck up and have something nice to say once in a while. Since when was it cool for geeks to hate everything? (Or in geekspeak: "j3suz, guys. LOLOLOLOLO.. GORWW TEH FUX0R UP AND HVAE DOMETIHNG NICE tO SAY oNCE IN A WHLIE!!!!!1~~~~~~~ s inc3 when wa zit 733t fro geeKs To hate 3veryThing!?!?!?!?!?") I remember in the early 90s, geeks were intelligent but somewhat humble. Now a defining characteristic of a geek seems to be this intolerable, cringe-inducing one-upsmanship. Anything that's popular (movies, microsoft, palm pilots, whatever) is, by definition of so many other people liking said object, awful. AnyONE that's popular (directors, politicians, pop princesses) deserves even more relentless disdain. It's so hard to read/listen to. Geeks have become bullies. Lashing out at everything and everyone they disagree with stubbornly closeminded, elitist, transparent jealousy. Oh, and not one of you could have made a better "A.I," for the record. (Not necessarily a compliment to A.I., but wouldn't you want to just punch someone in the face who was looking at a piece of art in a gallery, loudly going off about a few strokes that HE, a NON-PAINTER, would have done differently? Ick!)
-
I agree with most everybody here. except those that say she's too skinny. she shows up at your door, are you not going to let her in? shit, if she were selling bibles, i'd still let her in. it is shameless self promotion, but only on Harry's part. Don't fault her for trying. Fault Harry for letting her. To do this right, Harry, you might as well set up a column dedicated to actors/writers/directors that all read your column and are trying to make it. AICN profiles. Or better yet. Set up a singles dating service on your site. God knows all geeks can use another one. Send in those pics people!
-
I'm gonna go ahead and give her the benefit of the doubt; assuming that beautiful people don't come here is to imply that only ugly people do. well that's just sad. I was all ready to give knowles the red-ass but i remembered a close friend of mine; blonde, skinny-as-fuck, actor, gorgeous. She'd do something like this, and she reads AICN for the Buffy stories and the goss. She doesn't give a fuck what harry or moriarty or hercules look like, so why should we be as similarly concerned. something else to point out: women dig Harry. I've witnessed it first-hand. mofuckin' daddy of that mack and what not. It's moxie, kids--charisma, charm, wit, and you ain't got that shit if you're bringing all this hate. additionally, in my experience it's always the ones you least expect who have the eating disorders. my starvin' marvin chick friend who eat pizza and beer and the frightening number of women I know who are crippled by ana/mia and you wouldn't know it. you can't tell from a goddamn photograph. in closing: Harry Do Nice Thing? A Thousand Times No!!!
-
You snivelling, elitist little pricks are getting on my nerves and making it less enjoyable everyday to visit this site. early flamers were just annoyances that occasionally displayed at least a sense of humor, but you fucks are getting just plain mean. And you are idiots to believe that just because she is beautiful that she doesn't read AICN. Besides the fact that I personally know attractive women who visit this site, how likely do you think it is for someone unacquainted with the site to know about it or how to get in touch with Harry? And one last thing. HARRY CAN PUT WHATEVER THE FUCK HE WANTS ON HIS SITE!!!!!! Because its HIS SITE!!!! Now, kindly go fuck your collective selves. AD out
-
This Isn't a news site? fuck no. This is HARRY'S site. you ain't payin' for shit, all your doing is logging on to the internet in your cubicle and spitting the hateful bile that's built up due to deep-seeded self-loathing because of your station in life. you've made that long journey to the middle and just come to realize it. hell, maybe you're just pissy because you're at work. are you a web "journalist" who had to get a real job after the crash? You want to give shit to harry for enjoying blair witch 2? go ahead? take him to task for pissing on the late great Mystery Science Theater? i'm with you. there's a fine motherfuckin' line between a dissenting opinion and a vitrolic semi-coherent office-monkey ramblings. ya'll ain't for shit anyway. The potheads, the dropouts, the housewives, the retirees, the students, they all got SO much more to say of substance than you could ever muster. i'm done with the lot of you.
-
Although I've been a longtime reader of this site, I, too, am getting sick of pop-ups and the lack of journalistic integrity. I say everyone sick of this kind of tripe simply stop visiting his site. If everyone follows suit, by March 15 perhaps we'll see some changes or at least a valuable response. The ads on the top and sides keep it going. If Harry & Co. don't keep the number of visitors, then the ads will be pulled. I don't want Harry to go out of business, but I would appreciate an entertainment "news"-based site. Start a separate column for gossip, but if you're going to call it "news", there should be some truth in advertising.
-
Harry, if you're going to do this, stick it in a frame under your book-shill link as something like "Girls of AICN" and limit it to 100 x 50 pixels. This reminds me of those starlets that used to pop up on Johnny Carson's Tonight show and have no reason for being there other than as payment for dubious favors. Good luck, lady, but your headshots don't rate a TB.

by superhero
Really Harry, don't pull this I just did a good thing for someone BS. A LOT of the people here do good things for people EVERY DAY and it has nothing to do with the other person's looks or hoping a pretty girl will notice them. If you're going to do this sort of thing do it for people who are MORE DESERVING but have less going for them than some cookie cutter model wannabe. THERE ARE THOUSANDS of actors and singers who are INCREDIBLY talented and have honed their craft for years but because they're not in the Hollywood Anorexia supermodel wannabe club aren't getting breaks! If you're going to do this sort of thing do it for ALL performers (maybe a different column once a week) who are struggling not just the ones who you have a hard on for. Seriously, you talk about how messed up the system is and how it doesn't rely on talent or merit and then you do THIS! Then you bitch about people questioning your credibility! UNBELIEVABLE! You wonder why people call you sell-out? Here it is RIGHT HERE and it's blatant and unnecessary and you left the door wide open for any criticisms you get! BRING HERC BACK! This is a sad day indeed for this site...

Loriele New looks like she's related to Carolyn Jones (late of 'The Addams Family' TV show) and Lisa Marie (late of being Tim Burton's girlfriend). Then again, if not the pouty lips, then those eyes do it, it's what sets her apart from those really cookie-cutter type "anorexic models." My advice, Loriele? TAKE THE MONEY AND RUN. Forget 'art' and 'artistic integrity.' Make the $$$$. There's no honor in being an arthouse goddess if you can barely pay your phone bill and car payment each month. When the big $$$ comes along, take it. And try out for 'Son of the Beach' on FX when you have time. Signed, Notch Johnson.

...cut Harry a break! First of all, it's his fucking site, and he can do whatever the hell he wants with it. One picture (well, three) of some young woman is not going to send Harry into the dumps with the fans and connections he has made, so lighten the hell up! Tell me this - if any one of you geeks got a fan letter and picture from a girl as cute as this one (and she is cute; a bit on the thin side for me, but still cute) can you honestly tell me that you wouldn't be as stoked about it as Harry is? If you can, then you're a damn liar. Harry, I say create a whole new section of this site called "The Girls of AICN," and post all the pictures you get. Fuck these negative queens trying to tell you what to do with YOUR site, anyway...
-
I like the "girls of AICN" idea. That's fun. But I'd make publicity shots uneligible. But while I'm thinking about it.... WHY WHY WHY are posts always out of order? I don't get it. Is it to prevent the "first!!!!!!!!" messages from really being first, or what? :) I'm appreciative of Dr. Knowles maintaining this website but why not at least use a more reliable message board? There are so many freeware options... might class up the place a bit, and then the less mature posters might find reason to class-up their postings a bit, for the benefit of us all. :)

thank you all for you support and comments! i work very hard to support myself as an actor, and well trained, and have never booked anything just because im "pretty" . (thats a subjective term)- and its a town full or " pretty" ! just " pretty" is boring... and i am not boring!
im a genetic anomolie-- a hot geek!
thank you all! and please watch!!

She doesn't need to gain weight. She looks fine, and she's not any thinner that alot of girls that I see where I go to school everyday. Yes, that's right, REAL women who AREN'T hollywood actresses are actually capable of being thin. This smells like one of those "one jackass said she was too thin, so now I'm gonna jump on the bandwagon" situations. Either that or it's just a bunch of fat geeks who justify their being lardasses by saying that anyone less than 200 pounds must have an eating disorder.

even if you are posting negativity... please watch the show!

Harry, I heartily endorse this sort of earth-shattering news! More of the same pleeeeeze!!!! My only reservation is that *since* she is playing a porn star and *since* she offered to be your slave and *since* she supplied three or four photos (me-oww!!), as a courtesy it would have been nice if at *least* one of the photos showed some boobies or "early morning dew." Again, thanks for the breaking news and public service announcement. Respectfully, Jar Jar

by roguewriter
Geez, you guys would think womankind in general has done you nothing but wrong-n-ill since, like, third grade, when you got pantsed in front of the Little Red-Haired Girl and she had the audacity to laugh at yer predicament! Oh wait, that was me... I'm with Michel Delving -- stop being petty twits and celebrate a working actor's success. Also, here's a tip: being nice to pretty women might not get you laid on a daily basis, but it sure as hell works better than sniping at them and generally being a shit-ass. Would you guys be this nasty if she looked like Rachel Dratch?
-
Jeez people, have you all forgoten just whose web site this is? IT'S HARRY'S! He can do whatever the hell he wants to do. He could take a picture of doggie poo and post it if he wanted to. Harry, you keep doing what you do....screw the naysayers.

Why some of you are making unflattering remarks about this woman
by altaylor
She's done nothing wrong, you idiotic, faeces-ridden testicles of a rancid baboon's retarded, dribbling uncle. She, like many, has e-mailed Harry looking for some exposure. What's wrong with that? Every actor NEEDS exposure of some kind, and this is a fine enough way to get it. However, quite why Harry thinks he's done a good deed is beyond me. If he was doing good, he'd open a new section of the site for people just like her, rather than focusing on one person. I hate to be cynical, but it just seems like a P.R. exercise for Harry and his book; making him look like a kind-hearted soul. I'm not saying he's not, but I see no reason to just do this at random. I'm sure there are thousands of actors and actresses just as worthy of this kind of spotlight, so why not give them a chance too eh?
-
...if the Harry Knowles from five or six years ago would detest the shameless, masturbatory antics of the present Harry Knowles as much as a lot of folks here do? Wouldn't that make for an interesting premise? Past Harry travels through time to stop his future self from really losing cred and respect from his site visitors. Give him a talking monkey, a gay robot, put Jon Peters and Michael Bay on that project and it's money in the bank...
And as for Ms. Loriele New (otherwise known as Ms. Not-Her-Real-Name)...I'm not knocking your plug. You're in a business that requires you to get there any which way you can. If feminine wiles, and an abundance of xoxoxoxoxo, are your weapons of choice, so be it. I'll be watching The Practice on Sunday night, but it won't be for you. It'll be for that voluptuous Camryn Manheim. Now that's an AICN babe. I suspect she'd be more likely to hang with out with us AICN folk to dish the movie news more than you would...in real life, that is.
Nice rack, by the way. -
You are indeed a shining example to all of humanity. In fact, I too am going to do something nice for the next hot female talent who says she'll be my slave. Thank you for inspiring me.
-
I'm raising my hand. To concur that this is the lowest shit ever on this site. Moriarty, you've got a modicum of intelligence. Smack some fucking credibility into fat boy. This site continues to mystify me. It's like this crazy guy in my hometown who would take one step forward and two steps back all day long walking to the library. This is the same week that a Talkbacker posted how Harry had done nothing to drop some news on his Anime film festival in Columbus, Ohio. Your sexual desperation is no longer funny Harry. It's just fucking sad. Girls like this are a dime a dozen in Hollywood and nothing distinguishes them other than their generic good looks by which they manipulate masturbatory guys like you to give them help. I'm guessing that there's easily one thousand people who have written into AICN asking for help in pushing their indie film or whatnot. But now I see how it works; you've either got to be a vapid blonde or a player. Go ahead and ban me, just like I got banned before for revealing Moriarty's name before the Film Threat article. I give up on this shit. I wish Boriarty would get his own site so I didn't have to endure this crap.
-
Check the records starlet there are a lot of attractive people who come here. Maybe I would believe it was credible if it wasn't a rerun. Maybe we'd swallow your geek goddesssness if you didn't shove it down our throats. And no, I'm not jealous just annoyed at your assumption.

Without sounding like I'm blasting anyone that lives and or works around Hollywood, do you realize how fucking anomalous your city is? Anytown U.S.A. loses the few "hotties" that it has to bigger and better cities, which leaves us with even fewer and the girls that should be humble and approachable 6s and 7s become stiletto-to-the-heart ice queen bitches. (Sigh) The rich and fake get richer and more fake. And obviously not everyone can move to Miami, N.Y., L.A., etc., where things are good. Shit, you can't even find a good ratio around here! And because the bar scene sucks, a lot of the hotter girls go to the "alternative" bars to avoid the slobbering and "Night at the Roxbury" bullshit. Thank Ron L. Hubbard or whoever you worship out there. You must've lived a good life at some other point. And to Messr. Knowles, is this your attempt to join Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla as patron saints of straight guys with a pulse? I mean, c'mon, the girl's got a fairly forward-thinking agent who said, "Hey! No starlet in the making has ever copped to visiting AICN! You could be the face that launched a thousand posts! Guys will say 'Who's that Cindy Martin--'no wait, what was her name?" Kids, listen up. NO HOT WOMEN VISIT THIS SITE. JUST LIKE NONE OF THE SECOND RATE CENTERFOLDS ACTUALLY DO PHONE SEX, EVEN IF IT IS 4.95 A MINUTE!! (Taking a breath) Anyways, she doesn't even say that she has a User ID, forget about telling us which one it may be! I'm only ranting here because the fumes from the marker ink on the "All Bookie, No Nookie, Wouldn't It Be Cool To Be a Wookie" tour must've contaminated "someone's" mind. You know, it's bad enough to torment oneself with a stripper, thinking that just MAYBE she might actually be into the lap dance and that, boy, if this weren't her workplace, she'd really love to get you off. And some strippers in some establishments will, for the right price or drug (ah! Or so I've heard...put that keyboard away, smart ass!). But to think that a desperate if not somewhat crafty blip-on-the-radar actress actually enjoys this site and wants to be an affectionate and authentic representative of everything that she is not, well, I guess jerking off to well-known faces'pub shots is now passe. But a game of oneups(wo)manship would be entertaining, to see progressively trashier "actresses" licking frozen custard, caressing guns, writhing against a brick wall, wearing Anime babydoll shirts while straddling one of those coin-op rocket rides for kids, etc. And you females out there that are...just...fuming...pissed! right now, just stifle it, 'kay? I'm not talking to you. True, in theory, there may be a couple average or above-average women on this site every, I don't know, Star Wars movie cycle, but the guys don't need to dwell on the exceptions. To bring it all home, if you're like me and you aren't one of those 'cool' nerds from "Free Enterprise" and you don't live in a Metropolis, admit to what you already know. And that is that you must be able to take the Harry Knowles in you (it's just a symbolic thing, go along with it) and leave it at www.aint-it-cool-news.com if you are to have any hope of thriving away from it. Don't worry, your User ID and hit-and-miss opining is not going anywhere here. You know, as a challenge, Kevin Smith, the king of too much useless information, calls us "cyber snipers". And as such, he invites people to hate us in a way reserved for telemarketers and mimes. No, no, it's nothing you personally did, but deal with the perception you must. I know that many/most of you will scoff at this. Fine. I anticipated that. But I know that a few of you who are smart enough to stay silent also realize how detrimental this way of life can be to actually having a "Life". This article that I actually innocently clicked on (anticipating a joke about one of the guys writing for the site) illustrated that for me in a way that no spoilerfest can. And those of you who want to find that unicorn that is the beautiful girl who loves movie sites, keep on truckin'. I'll do a doubleshot of Jack in your memory. I guess my point is this: if this concept of hot girl/AICN fan wasn't of "Aliens Land In Central Park!"-unbelievable proportions, then it wouldn't have existed in the first place. AICN is what it is, and the strange thing is that while it can bring thousands of distant people together instantly, it can also keep those same people removed from the world outside their doors. It's not the only thing, but it is a gateway. Oh, finally (FINALLY!), Harry, "what nice thing have I done for anyone lately?" Well, as much as I don't want to trumpet my good deeds, I think this "not-so-brief" post might amount to something for somebody. You know, maybe....

G.I.F.T.S. Reprimands Harry "Ain't It Cool" Knowles! Read A
by jollydwarf
A.P. Release: Today, a spokesperson from G.I.F.T.S. or Guys In Film That are Straight made a statement, saying that the overwhelming majority of its members feel that Harry Knowles has taken a step towards ruining the sex-for-success system that they have so carefully fostered for decades. "It is folly for any actress to get 'free pub' these days," the spokesperson said, "let alone an unknown. Actually, according to the charts based on the 'Sitcom-Star Slightly-Past-Her-Prime-Trying-To Break-Into-Film' average point of reference, where the occasional tryst or office oral sex will suffice, a girl on the entry level should become that man's nymphet for as long as it takes to raise her awareness ranking by a factor of five. If a girl making 20 million a picture has to offer at least one distinct 'favor', then everyone has to obey these rigid standards that have become accepted." The spokesperson added that "I can't recall our friends in the music industry allowing girls backstage because 'they were really big fans'." While no charges are expected against Knowles, GIFTS says that it will be "keeping a lens focused on him at all times" and that "advance screenings and promotional leaks" may go to random fanpage creators instead. When asked if the spokesperson agreed with all of the concerns, she said "Look, it's not my place to talk about it. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a 'schoolgirl detention hall blowjob' fantasy to perform." (From wire reports)

It's possible that this entire article is a hoax, like the "Adam Rich is Dead" issue of Might Magazine. Maybe Harry delights in the vitriolic back-and-forth on the Talkbacks. Of course this theory is contingent on Harry enjoying subtle, conceptual humor. No evidence exists to suggest it, unfortunately. ******** To the folks who say "This is Harry's site and he can do what he wants": apparently what he wants is to have people respond to the articles at his site. He should have anticipated a negative response to this article, and if he didn't anticipate it then he's clearly lost his mind. ******** Considering the pace at which "Coaxial News" is updated, we might be enjoying this article for weeks. Then again, Harry might not like the attention, so he might flood the site with new articles in order to bury this sucker as far down as it'll go. He wouldn't delete the article; his response to the overwhlemingly negative Talkback was to post more pictures of this girl. ******** If this article is any indication, then Harry's aborted television show would have been really entertaining, to put it mildly.

The only Loriele New at IMDB was a Lori New, whose incredible resume includes parts such as:
Actress in towel, Bikini Assassin, Blonde on the Beach, Stand-in Photo Double. In such incredible movies as American Virgin, which has to be one of the worst movies of all goddamn time.
Yeah, I'd say you got those parts based on raw talent. I don't mean to be rude to you, I'm just asking you to be less naive. Sure, you've got to use what you can to get ahead, I just hate it when people don't cop to what they really are and face up to it. As for the comments from others that anything detrimental is said as a result us being the lacking in sex geeks - I'd say it's more like we're the ones with sex lives who find it embarrasing for all involved when this passes as "news". There was this loser guy in college I knew who once said to this girl he was actually getting somewhere with (with no trace of irony) "Sure, I know about sex... I've been with prostitutes". When I see Harry do shit like this it's the same kind of feeling of wanting to intervene. In fact, I've had enough of a sex life to know that after a certain age you realize that pretty girls don't mean shit if they haven't got something to back it up. I appreciate looking at a fine lady, but come on. At my age, it's like sure - you're hot. Now impress me, because I spent enough of my time wasted on vapid chicks to know now. -
she's an up-and-coming actress who looks great and advertises on AICN by including pics in an e-mail to Harry. Now her career will boosted by Harry 'Stepping Stone' Knowles.

NOW. Harry, some of them want to use you.

I reckon she's the purdiest thang I done seen all week. Yup.
by psyclops
Good luck to you 'Purdy Lady', it's great to know that some people are finding a few open doors in Hollywood. Fanboys!! Don't be disrespectful!!! Leave the purdy lady alone!!!!
-
but as someone in the business, you have to realize by now that casting is 90% looks, 10% talent (excepting the $20 mil per movie, top tier, of course). Someone with great talent can sometimes use these roles to propel themselves higher, if they are EXTREMELY lucky. However, they will never get a part in which they do not match the "director's vision". Film is a visual medium. Looks are important - accept it & use it to your advantage... Oh, I see you already have.
-
I know its your site, and I totally agree you should be able to do whatever you want with it, but I don't see how this helps anybody. The next time some blonde has you feeling "altruistic," just pass her headshot along to Robert, Quentin or Guillermo and save the bandwidth for something like a review of IN THE BEDROOM, MONSTERS BALL, GOSFORD PARK, IRIS or A BEAUTIFUL MIND. All nominated for major Oscars, by the way, and still we haven't heard what you thought about them. And by the way, lemme register this one preference: EXPOSED RIBS ARE NOT SEXY. Someone throw the girl a sammich!!
-
wow, what a set of tits will get you with the sexually frustrated. In my next life i would like to come back as a hot chick, because im sure there are plenty of people who booked their own shit before, and pleny of people who have scraped together a project, or made a film with o budget, etc, etc, but the ones with nice tits get th bone thrown to them (pun intended). Very, very sad.
-
I wouldn't have bothered to post again, but I saw that Harry had responded to the talkbacks at some point yesterday.
I have to say, the whole idea of defending yourself by saying that you were just trying to do something nice for someone is completely negated by the first set of comments Harry ran with the post. Cackling over the woman's offers of slave-hood does not come off as remotely "good hearted". It comes across as leering. If, indeed, there are thousands of like minded actors and actresses who have done this, then where are their pics? Why does this girl get special treatment? If Harry did it because he was in a "good mood", then why didn't we see stuff like this after his trip to New Zealand or after the Grinch?
I'd like to think that in the course of my life, I've done a lot of nice things for people. And most of these actions/gestures/kind words came with no strings attached. No sexual favors, no promises of gain. This might be a different situation if Harry didn't run the only movie news site that Hollywood itself actively promotes (either positively or negatively). But that's not the case. Harry has a responsibility to a code of ethics not unlike regular journalism. A journalist would be (rightly) chastised for running tripe like this on a website that promotes itself as a place to learn cool movie news.
-
You have the most popular film website on the net. geeks, industry people and everyone that cares about movies comes to this site every friggin day. You are ranked as one of the most powerful people in hollywood because of this site. I quote Peter Parker's Uncle Ben "Remember, with great power comes great responsibility"
-
... then she'll hopefully know to ignore the bile spewed by the petty, mean-spirited little dweebs who crawl out of the woodwork anytime there's a chance to bash Harry. Good for you, Loriele. Congrats on your success. And for those who object to the "Harry created this site and can do what he wants with it" argument: Get over yourselves. Harry didn't start with any edge any of the rest of us film geeks don't have, except determination. Go forth and create your own movie web sites, build them up, conquer the net with your own vision. Go for it.

I think ive figured this out. See, The internet is comprised of 2 things: Geek Info and Pornography. But your well bred geek doesn't like his Geek News and his Pornograpy together. They like to keep their inteests seperate. This discussion is out of hand, and the line is clearly divided: half of you are pissed, the other half rally behind "its his site, he can do what he wants". Yes, it is Harry's site, and Yes, it is incredibly sad that the man is so easily motivated by a nice piece of ass. So just agree to disagree. If you want a real issue to deabte about the site, try this one: Harry wrote a book published by an AOL Time Warner company. His site runs ads for New Line movies owned by AOL Time Warner. He got a great write up in Entertainment Weekly a few weeks back, being credited for the poor performance of Rollerball (please, i think Rollerball sank Rollerball, not a comment saying "rollerball sucks") at the same time his book was coming out. Its a creepy level of corporate synergy if you ask me. TO conclude: Yes, Harry is easily motivated by his dick, as all red blooded men should be. Yes, the man can put anything he wants on his site, even a sad piece of news which is about as exciting as the Page 3 girl. Yes, we're all dumber for having read this article and talking about it this much. Yes, Aol Time Warner takes a piece of your soul every time you come to this site...

by nada lives
Talk about a god complex! Who does Harry think he is? Here's a woman trying to make a living as an actor, getting parts on popular TV shows ON HER OWN, and contacting websites trying to get noticed - and Harry thinks that somehow he's "making her wish come true" by actually posting her email? WTF? He even admits that he's gotten tons of emails like this, but this is the first time he's posting one. Why? Because she's an independent woman making headway in a tough industry? Nope, it's because she's "pweettty." And now Harry feels all warm inside because this one time he went ahead and added this to his news section. Maybe he should wait until AFTER this post actually lands this actor a higher profile gig before he starts taking credit for "making her wish come true." I've got an idea for you Harry: why not start a whole new column where EVERYONE who wants to talk about their projects can write in and get noticed. And I don't just mean "pwetty" girls, I mean everyone who has the drive and ambition to make it in this industry. Then maybe I'll get some of my respect back for you.
-
So what if it's not really news, it was kinda entertaining. She asked you to hype her appearance and you choose to do so. That is certainly your right. And if some of these morons wanking themselves off with their Star Wars (tm) toys want to give you and/or her crap about it, then let them continue to hump themselves. They are probably just bitching because no cute women send them any pics unless they are trying to get them to pay for them.

it was so sweet and generous of Harry to post the listing for my show! and ive really enjoyed ALL of your comments!
thanks-- and i hope youll all watch the show! sun.11:30pm-abc

some of you have invested your day into taking this seriously.

maybe if she was holding a lightsaber then maybe you nerds wouldn't be so fussy. quit crying you fucking retards. It's so funny, cause you can tell who exactly doesn't get any action in real life by the way that they are complaining about this story. But hey, SOMEONE needs to keep those intense AOTC vs. LOTR debates raging, right? PFFFFFFFFT

its easy to criticise-- but harry has created this entire website, and fostered a whole community for debate and the celebration of entertinment and ideas! No small feat!!IM sooo honored to have even a small place on this site!! how cool is that?! so, lets celebrate his passion-- and all of you passions!! its great that you all have so much integrity and opinions!! I LOVE your comments!! let me hear you roar! apathy kills!

Harry, if you are going to post articles about bimbos who are desperate for attention then at least sleep with them *before* posting the articles! Although the visual picture of you and the "kitten" scarred us for months, we had the satisfaction of knowing that you were getting a little something. This episode of The Practice that you are promoting isn't even a network showing, it is in syndication! Some ways to get a "news" article on this site: 1) Include Harry's name in the advertising for your movie. 2) Send Harry a picture of yourself (but only if you are a woman with a huge rack). Attention strippers in the Austin area: Be on the lookout for a big fat man with red hair. Tell him that you are a "fan" of his web site, and you'll soon be able to afford that vacation you've been dreaming about!

i do enjoy everyones comments-- and im not offended by yours. truth is perception... and i doubt i could alter yours. if you doubt my talent or how ive booked my jobs-- watch the show. then make your assesments.
if ONLY it were as easy as sex to get jobs in hollywood! thats such a fallacy. you actually have to earn them. Blast!
haha!
xo--loriele -
This is all just too fucking ridiculous. ***Knowles, you are such a knob. But God bless ya all the same. ***Loriele, welcome to where the magic happens. You must truly be a fan (or naive or a masachist)because any normal actress wouldn't bother with any of these trolls. Especially since this site has become something of an industry joke. Sure, junior TV and Studio execs peruse this site to steal ideas and get feedback on their crappy shows but other than that this site ain't gonna get you any future gigs save maybe a job dressing up like Supergirl at some comic book convention. Either way, cheers to ya. *** AND TO THE REST OF YOU, you whiney, antagonising, bitter little fuckers have ruined this site and it's more your fault that this site has become such a joke than it is Knowles'.
-
Look at how many messages you fools have written. I guess I'm one too for posting, but Christ people, relax. Actually Harry should put a Page 3 or Page 6 actress up every month. Would be a neat experiment to see if any of them get work from the exposure.
-
Like Harry and most of the aging Star Wars fanboy regulars to AICN, it's been years since I haven't had to pay for it, so once again Harry, I reiterate my mega-thanks for the smokin' hot babe shots. But for the love of god, show me some boobies and "early mornin' dew." Pleeeze, pleeeze, slobber, slobber *gulp*
-
my goodness... aren't we bitter... I don't know what to say. My original thought was the same as most of the TBers... this isn't news, yet certainly entertaining, and yes, the girl is hot. i think La Fours is taking it too too far by personally attacking the girl. you can't blame her for trying to get some free pub. advertisers pay on average a dollar/person that sees their logo. if anybody is to blame, it's Harry for acting self-righteous and like a slimy letch at the same time. eck! you got a great body girl, don't abuse it. also, yes, girls are often asked to provide favors for favors. that's why it's called the casting couch. good job on booking all your own engagements. hope this gets you an agent, so you can actually concentrate on the craft and not the business. as for Harry, i never really did have too much respect for him, after all, he isn't exactly your serious old-school journalist. Harry is constantly late with his reviews and then picks the worst movies to review when he does get to them. Not to mention, everybody here knows that the studios throw you some major bones. I worked in field marketing at a major studio (won't name it) and I've seen how it works. Fly you out, wine, dine, open bar party, fly you back = at least a decent review. Harry is also a the worst film writer in cyberspace. Your grammar sucks, man. Just because you have an opinion and you stick to it, doesn't mean you can write a coherent sentence. I come more for the news than the reviews anyway. Any thoughts on my geek interent dating service idea? I need a girl, man. Ah hell, I'm going to TJ.
-
I know Lori, I work in the business, and I've even seen Lori completely naked, and I can tell you that she's never been cast because she's hot. Look at the pictures closely. Notice something? That's right...they're all straight on her face. Truth is, from even the slightest angle on either side, she's quite ugly. So ugly that at my birthday party last year when I was hammered beyond repair her attempts to get me in the sack failed. And is there a more available guy than a drunk one at his own birthday party?
I like her a lot, and this will probably hurt her feelings, but you all need to know that in the non-celluloid world Lori New is downright vomit strength ugly.
Oh, and I've seen her act, and she's not bad. -
About the actress who was so dumb she slept with the writer of the movie to get ahead in her career... I now believe this joke will be revised in the 21st century... Draw your own conclusions.

What the fuck? Double date w/ who? Whatever, I get the other chick, not you. Yeah, I know, I'm lame for making fun of a simple typo, but I just can't stop laughing at that sentence. Btw, that pun on my user ID, funny as shit. Really good stuff! You should be the writer, not me! Better yet, a comedian! But you're completely right about me putting me having too much anger over this and putting in way too much effort. This really is a complete waste of time. Really should be working. Oh well, I still probably won't watch, I honestly just dislike the series. Maybe I'll rent American Virgin instead to check out your acting talents! I heard that movie kicked ass! There I go with the credit mocking again, I'm so immature.
-
Did you post that last attack as a parody of how snarling little dweebs behave when they have the comfort of anonymity and can snipe at will? Or do you believe that your point is somehow made valid by opening a vicious tirade against someone you don't know? If the latter, you're a sad, sad little person. If the former... well, you're probably still a sad, sad little person.
-
Is Harry really buying into this mythology that he's a huge influence on the entertainment industry? Or is it actually true? I honestly don't know one friend or relative of mine who has heard of him without my mention (and yes, I have more than one friend). You're no Bill Maher, Harry! Look, the devotion of various film geeks/buffs/aficianados is not going to make seismic shifts in the industry. It can suppliment it, but the guy is really powerless when it comes to manipulating public opinion. I come here to find out the lowdown. I could give a flying squirrel FUCK what any of the pseudonyms think. It also amazes me how many people find it their chivalrous duty to defend this poor damsel from us frothing Morlocks. Look, I watch the Man Show and such for titties, and I come here for movie news, not an actress that will soon pass the obscurity event horizon. If it's a couple pictures of who's playing Mary Jane or the T3, okay, great. But this is beyond stupid. Plus, the head is getting as big as the midsection, if you know what I mean. But hey, go ahead. Continue to let these beauties take advantage of you all. Don't have a film website? Just keep buying the drinks at the bar. Plus, now do you deny other actresses the same opportunity? Or do you start a AICN Hottie Column? Well, what about the guys out there that are actors that actually give a shit about movies? We gonna be fair about this? No. Like I said, I don't want to see the Man Show put the Chippendales on just to be fair. But this isn't that program. Or is it? Look, it's obvious that all of us hard-up guys come to this site because we truly love film--well, or we got hooked anticipating Episode I-- and because we spend our pathetic 'free time' doing things that the 'socially active' wouldn't be caught dead doing. This whole fiasco is a ploy just to get more hits and stir up controversy. I'm sorry if I contributed even a droplet of fuel, but I couldn't just sit their and let The Smug One be so idiotically delusional completely uncontested. And if you wanna side with that, go RIGHT AHEAD. P.S. Beetlejuice on the E! show tonight was fucking hilarious. Tiffany and Beetlejuice. That's what I'm talkin' about.

I can't belive the amount of comments this talkback has got, I don't even know why I'm posting this it will never be read I am to far down on the page. But here it goes anyway. 1.) It's Harry's site he can do whatever he wants. Judging from the amount of posts it was a clever idea. 2.) This is a entertainment website. If you want journalistic integrity go read a newspaper. 3.) For all the complaining Dweebs like La Four, i f you put as much energy into meeting girls as you do your negative posts, you might actually get laid someday. 4.) I'm going to watch the Practice on Sunday at 11:30 pm 0n ABC. Because of all this nonsence. 5.) Loriele, very clever of you. You go girl. That is all I have to say about that. PS I don't personally know Loriele or Harry at all. I just thought I had to add that. Why I don't know. Damn I can't belive how much I typed.

LaFours, you haven't had sex in like 227 years, have you?
by roguewriter
Jesus, what an unhappy person you must be in real life. Except I bet you never have the courage to open your mouth and vent when people can see where it's coming from; you save all that infantile aggression for the hidey-hole safety of the Web, don'tcha? If you bumped into this woman (or Harry) in real life, you'd blush and flee like a ferret. Here's a tip: grow some patience with people, check your raging ego at the door, and try to live outside your own box-like worldview for a change. You'll live longer, and other people might realize there's more to you than meets the eye. Give it a whirl.

Final Judgement of the World Geek Court. Judge JimiJoJoShabadoo presiding.
Defendent: Harry Knowles
Charges:
1) That you did recklessly attempt to curry favour with a g..g..girl to the detriment of your geek integrity.
2) That you are guilty of reckless endangerment of the rabid slobbering army of armchair
psychopaths that have set up camp on your website. They are almost certainly now at a higher risk of killing themselves through either apoplectic rage or masturbatory excess.
3) That you still... use... too many... ellipses...
Verdict
1) Guilty
2) Guilty
3) Guilty
Sentence:
Harry Knowles, you shall be taken from this place and have your head removed from your body by a plastic light-sabre wielding bearded dwarf eith acne and a vacant stare dressed as Bones (First season uniform), until you are dead.
May Peter Jackson have mercy on your soul.
-
Yeah she looks pretty hot... until that last picture when you can see her ribcage and most of her internal organs.
How can she play a convinding pornstar? She'd be split in two. -
i hope you all watch the show sun-- and for anyone that wants to confront me in person (LA FOURS)
i will be at Harry's party at Barneys Beanery on the 19th in LA!
so-- the challenge is made!!
HA!! show up, all you self-proclaimed nerds!! EN GARDE!!
xo-loriele -
any buzz is better than no buzz, and you have certainly stirred the hornets' nest! And you are handling the flames with grace and style. My hat is off to you.**** I think it would be very interesting if this spawned a monthly featurette of pics of upcoming starlets. It could focus more on B-movie (or straight to video) actresses. What's cooler than hot chicks posing for us geeks?!? AD out
-
I won't disappoint.
As for the rest of you geeks; last time i checked it was Harry's site. If you don't like go somewhere else to get your F'ing scoops....
Ike! -
i dont know if you can see the show if you live outside of the LA market-- (since its a rerun) but if you can watch, please do-- sun 11:30 pm--abc
and thanks for all your comments-- ive loved it all! xoxo--loriele -
That episode of the practice is awesome. I rewatched it on CBS last night, and yay! Lindsay, Bobby, and Helen triangle was so great, as was the horny Helen and Bobby makeout session. Lindsay at the end w/ Eugene was priceless. The practice rules, with or without the aicn guest star.
