What makes a movie star? Talent is a must, but it takes more than that. Movie stars need to possess an authentic charisma that makes it impossible for the audience to take their eyes off them. They must be open and vulnerable, yet remain a mystery you’re desperate to solve. Of the carousel of recent Hollywood “It girls”, nobody has embodied that movie star presence quite like Blake Lively. Although she has portrayed many characters who are noted for their beauty, Lively never settled into the niche of “hot blonde” roles....

The carrier is apparently communicating launch plans to employees, Geller claims, and urging them to finish training as soon as possible: This pretty much jibes with what we know so far, including a MacRumors story about Apple increasing retail staffing for August-September in the US and an unreliable report calling for a September iPhone 5 launch in the US (October everywhere)....
