Next, I expect she'll be appointed to some kind of beauty ambassadorship at Read more
All of the new DVD releases hit stores (and Netflix) on Tuesdays. So each week in What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday, I sort through the best of the batch and tell you what to add to your queue. I should probably mention that in addition to the following titles, Apocalypto is also out on DVD today. Oh, and the Girls Next Door Workout.

On December 20th, Venus opens, starring the ever-great Peter O'Toole.

Having just turned 30, Venus Williams has been playing tennis professionally for half of her life. She is one busy athlete: gearing up for the US Open, teaching tennis clinics, selling her EleVen designs on Gilt, and promoting her new book Come to Win. Yet when I spoke with Venus recently, she seemed more like her sister's namesake, serene. Easy to laugh while maintaining a thoughtful focus, Read more
