It does not happen often when you are 007 – but recently according to reports, the very talented but troubled British singer Amy Winehouse was invited to the 007 James Bond set to get inspiration for the Bond theme that she is currently writing – unfortunately, but not unexpectedly she never showed. A source close to Amy is quoted as saying that “It’s not easy getting Amy anywhere on time at the moment.”

Maybe a number of 007 fans will be surprised just how Ian Fleming’s famous fictional Agent 007 of Her Majesty’s Secret Service came into being.

It all came about whilst Fleming – a keen bird watcher – was living in his adopted home of Jamaica.
In his book collection he owned one in particular ” Birds of the West Indies ” written by a certain ” James Bond ” It did not take him long to realise that he had found the perfect name for his character, which he later explained was “brief, unromantic, Anglo-Saxon, and yet very masculine – just what I needed ” and the rest is history as they say. ролики сперма русское порно зрелых

Daniel Craig was beaten to the Best Actor award by Forest Whitaker, for his portrayal of Idi Amin in The Last King Of Scotland.

Composer David Arnold missed out on the film music award to Babel director Gustavo Santaolalla.

Of course, Dame Judi Dench had no chance of snatching the best actress award from fellow Dame, Helen Mirren.
