May/June 2007
In 70% of cases genital herpes is transmitted I’m very careful, and I always thought I was doing everything possible to protect my girlfriend from genital herpes. But when I learned that I could be contagious even when I don’t have symptoms, I was shocked. I asked my doctor, and he explained that genital herpes is transmitted through something called viral shedding. Too small to be seen, viral shedding can happen anytime, anywhere in the “boxer short” area of my body. Thanks to my doctor I now know that I can do more to reduce my risk of passing it on. * Based on a clinical study to determine the risk of spreading genital herpes (GH) in 144 heterosexual couples in which one partner had GH, and the other did not. Couples were followed for a median 334 days and were counselled to abstain from skin to skin contact in the presence of lesions. Couples were educated on the potential protection offered by condoms during periods when there were no visible signs or symptoms. Who knew? when there are no visible signs or symptoms.* THERE ARE MORE WAYS TO REDUCE THE RISK OF TRANSMITTING GENITAL HERPES THAN YOU MAY REALIZE.

MAY/JUNE 2007 Tribute 25 Revenge is oh so sweet Clooney, Pitt, Damon and crew return for one final heist in Ocean’s Thirteen F there were an actor in Hollywood who could draw an audience just on presence alone, it would undoubtedly be George Clooney. Guys want to be him, and women only wish they could snag him. He is, however, Hollywood’s most eligible bachelor—still. With his Golden Era movie star looks aside, the 46-year-old Oscar-winning actor (Syriana), turned director, is relied upon for more than his dashing looks. And as he again slips into his most suave role as Danny Ocean, we’re reminded of his earning power at the box office. With the first two Ocean’s films, grossing almost $800 million worldwide, Clooney has proven himself one of the few working actors worthy of “anchor” status. His Ocean’s Thirteen co-stars Brad Pitt and Matt Damon can boast membership in the same club—one whose doors open to stars who can carry entire projects, be they critically praised or maligned, and fill movie theater seats on their names alone. Hot of the heels of the Ocean’s films, Thirteen, reportedly the final film in the trilogy, is expected to lure audiences craving more of the same caper-driven action from one of the highest-profile casts to appear together in recent film history. I cover story It’s Clooney’s character Danny Ocean that leads the pack but any heist could not be pulled off without Ocean’s smooth crew—Don Cheadle, Bernie Mac, Elliott Gould, Scott Caan, Casey Affleck and Andy Garcia. “In large part, the film was motivated by everyone wanting to work together again,” says director Soderbergh. “But it was always with the understanding that it had to be ‘all in’ or we were not doing it— everybody comes back or nobody comes back.” In addition to the “all for one” pact “Thirteen happened because we felt like we could do it better than Twelve,” Clooney tells iF magazine. “Soderbergh and I were like, ‘We know how to do this.’ We found a really good reason to do it, which is revenge, which is always better than just making money. Maybe ten years from now I’ll need a job, but right now we don’t plan on another.” In Ocean’s Thirteen, Garcia’s ruthless casino owner Terry Benedict joins forces with Ocean and his crew to take down hated Vegas hotelier Willy Bank (Al Pacino). Pacino ready to be conned After Bank double-crosses Ocean’s friend Reuben Tishkoff (Gould), the crew attempts to bankrupt his prized casino on opening night. “Thirteen happened because we felt like we could do it better than Twelvee. We found a really good reason to do it, which is revenge, which is always better than making money.” George Clooney www.tribute.ca Pitt is waiting for his next take ta Actors George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Don Cheadle,Andy Garcia, Elliott Gould,Al Pacino Director Steven Soderbergh Photo of Pitt: KeystoneCanada Mac is set to play in the big leagues “They’re not stealing anything; they’re letting everybody else rake it in,” Clooney says. “You could say they’re helping Bank give it away.” And, he pointed out, there’s nothing quite like a casino floor packed with lucky players. “It’s great to be around a table that’s hot—like a craps table when people are winning,” Clooney adds. “When you’re around one that’s on fire, the place just explodes.To have a whole casino on fire is everybody’s fantasy.” So,too,is it a film fan’s dream to enjoy so many A-list names acting in one film, let alone a trilogy. Damon, who reprises his role as logistics man Linus Caldwell,sees his character Locations Las Vegas, Los Angeles Outtake All of Al Pacino’s scenes were shot in three weeks. MAY/JUNE 2007 Tribute 27 cover story take a more active role in the heist, one naturally befitting his own constantly-elevating spot on Hollywood’s list of go-to leading men. And naturally, he gets the girl—Bank’s right-hand woman Abigail Sponder (Ellen Barkin).“I finally get the love interest in one of these movies,” Damon quips. Or does he? Turns out Linus’ attempts at stealing a heart might be tied to the heist itself. For long-time Clooney collaborator Soderbergh, twists like these in the Ocean’s films reflect a Robin Hoodesque love of taking from the rich and giving to the poor—criminals, in this case. But in the third film, revenge, rather than the thieves’ financial gain, takes over as a driving force. Photo: KeystoneCanada Franco and Dunst Known for having too much fun on set, Clooney, Damon, Caan and Cheadle take a time out o to joke around. “I finally get the love interest in one of these movies.” Matt Damon “I have always embraced the idea that these guys are thieves and con men,” Soderbergh says.“But they’re not entirely driven by money. Certainly, in this case, they are driven by friendship and revenge.The ‘all for one and one for all’ ethos dictates that when one of them is betrayed—especially in the way that their friend Reuben was betrayed—it’s payback time.” “It shows the kind of friends they are, and I think that’s something an audience can get behind right away,” Garcia adds. For those who have followed the Ocean’s films on screen, and off, will know that being on set with this bunch is a complete riot—with Clooney as the notorious practical joker. Their dynamic on-screen rapport with each other probably explains the appeal of the films to audiences. Those feelings will no doubt be rekindled as the franchise returns to its Las Vegas roots for what could be the ultimate revenge job. No doubt it will likely turn out to be another opportunity for Clooney —the patriarch of Hollywood’s leading men—to prove once again why he’s full of of 21st century Hollywood cool. –Chris Atchison Damon, Cl D Clooney and d Pi Pittt iin n fin ine fo ine forrm m 28 Tribute MAY/JUNE 2007 www.tribute.ca Discover the ultimate in smoothness...

Higherups applaud your efforts with a special reward. You doubt new possibilities that open up by the end of May. Yet some prove right on the money. You play the daisy game in June:“loves me, loves me not.”With the final petal a clear answer emerges. profile ESSICA Alba’s career is on fire. With two movies opening within months of each other, Fantastic Four: The Silver Surfer and Good Luck Chuck, Alba is hot in demand. Born on April 28, 1981, Jessica Maria Alba is a native of Southern California. But with her father serving in the Air Force, the family was forced to relocate every few years. “I hated it and I cried all the time,” she remembers. “I went to 12 different schools. I was never properly socialized.” She did,however,fit into Hollywood. Alba made her film debut at age 13 in Camp Nowhere, followed by the Nickelodeon series, The Secret World of Alex Mack and Flipper, along with movies like Never Been J Kissed, Idle Hands, Paranoid, The Sleeping Dictionary and Sin City. Currently, Alba stars in the upcoming Good Luck Chuck—a comedy about a serial dater played by Dane Cook—and Fantastic Four: The Rise of the Silver Surfer. She will also star later this year in Awake, a psychological thriller with Hayden Christensen, Bill, a comedy with Aaron Eckhart and The Eye, a thriller about a cornea transplant recipient who sees disturbing images in the mirror that sends Alba’s character on a quest to find out what happened to the eye’s previous owner. But guys need not fret. They will see Alba return to fine form as the sexy stripper Nancy Callahan in Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller’s Sin City 2 next year. Photo: KeystoneCanada Jessica Alba push play Letters from Iwo Jima MAY 22 Clint Eastwood’s follow-up to Flags of Our Fathers tells the tale of the Battle of Iwo Jima, a clash that claimed 7,000 American soldiers and 20,000 Japanese troops. Decades later, several hundred letters from the Japanese men who fought are unearthed from that stark island’s soil. The letters give faces and voices to the men who fought there, as well as the extraordinary general, Tadamichi Kuribayashi (Ken Watanabe) who led them. tribute.ca user reviews “A poignant and well done film.” “Acting is awesome.

After his voice-mail rant in which he called his daughter Ireland “a rude, thoughtless little pig” was made public, Alec Baldwin apologized for “losing his temper with his child,” blaming the stress of the ongoing custody battle with ex-wife Kim Basinger for the outburst. He later appeared on The View and said, “There’s nothing wrong with being frustrated or angry about the situation. It’s the way you do it, and as people often do in this world, I took it out on the wrong person.” “I’m very sorry and from now on I’m going to pay complete attention to everything. I’m sorry and I did not do it on purpose at all.” That’s what Paris Hilton told a judge before he sentenced her to 45 days in jail violating probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case by driving with a suspended license. Hilton has asked fans to sign a petition on the Internet urging Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger to W Paris Hilton pardon her, but it is unlikely the hotel heiress will spend the whole term in jail anyway due to overcrowding in the L.A County jail system. David Hasselhoff’s visitation rights to see his children were recently suspended. A Los Angeles judge temporarily barred the former Baywatch star from visiting daughters Taylor-Ann and Hayley following the emergence of a videotape showing him drunk in Taylor-Ann’s presence.The videotape, which surfaced on the internet last week, showed Hasselhoff rolling around shirtless on the floor trying to eat a hamburger. The 54-year-old actor reportedly asked his daughters to video him when inebriated so he could “see what he is like.” His daughter is heard pleading on the tape: “Dad, you have to promise me you’re not going to get alcohol tonight, OK? You hear me? No alcohol.” Hasselhoff said the film had been “maliciously released,” adding: “I’ve seen the tape. I’ve learned from it and I’m back on my game.” Lindsay Alec Baldwin Lohan David Hasselhoff 46 Tribute MAY/JUNE 2007 www.tribute.ca Photos: KeystoneCanada Who’s sorry now?
