TNT PULLS THE PLUG ON 'HAWTHORNE'

9/03/2011 0
HawthoRNe

After three seasons, TNT and leading lady Jada Pinkett-Smith have confirmed that it will not be requesting a fourth season of the medical drama 'Hawthorne'.

The cancellation comes on the heels of an alleged affair between Smith and her co-star Marc Anthony, which leads many to believe she utilized her executive producer position to have the show canceled in order to work on her marriage.

The ratings, however, don't support this concocted theory, because despite it's creative growth, the medical drama was one of the network's lowest performers.

Trying to put those divorce rumors to rest, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith were all smiles as they shared lunch at Bob Morris' Beach Cafe and shopped at Malibu Colony Company in Malibu, California on Wednesday, August 24th.

The outing comes after reports surfaced that the two were calling it quits on their 13-year marriage, after she was caught sneaking around with her 'HawthoRNe' co-star Marc Anthony (both Smith's and Anthony's reps have denied this claim).

HawthoRNe - Season 1 Episodes To Download

8/18/2009 0
HawthoRNe takes place at Richmond Trinity Hospital in Charlotte, N.C., where the strong-but-caring director of nursing, Christina Hawthorne (Jada Pinkett Smith), continuously fights battles she often knows she won’t win. Whether treating the homeless woman in front of the hospital like a human being or trying to talk a suicidal cancer patient off the ledge, Christina must challenge hospital administrators, heartless doctors, apathetic colleagues and a system that sometimes forgets it’s there to serve the sick.

Recently widowed and the mother of a smart, willful teenager, Christina juggles her career with her equally important role as a single parent. Between the two, she barely has time for herself and has difficulty keeping things together. But she knows she has to and can’t give up on anyone. That’s what her passion requires; it’s what it takes to be a hero.


HawthoRNe airs every Tuesday night at 9/8c on TNT.

Jada Pinkett Smith to Star in New TNT Drama, 'Time Heals'

9/19/2008 0
As a loving mother to her three children with husband Will Smith – Trey, Jaden and Willow – Jada Pinkett Smith can draw from her experience for her role as a strong single mom on the TNT drama pilot, which she is also executive producing, Time Heals.

Pinkett Smith will play Nancy Hawthorne, which the network describes as the strong but caring director of a nursing hospital in North Carolina, a single mother who places the pain of others first.

In terms of her role off-screen, Pinkett Smith, 37, acknowledges that neither she nor Will exerts a particularly heavy hand.

"We're not strict but we definitely believe it's a very important component for rearing children," she said last month. "It creates safety for them. They understand that they need guidance."

Still, if a member of their brood wants to sneak an extra sweet, Pinkett Smith acknowledges with a laugh that her husband is the more lenient one.

"He's so lenient on that stuff," she says with a sigh. "Daddy tends to [say], 'Yeah! Have chocolate cake for dinner! It’s all right with me.' I'll come home and it's just, 'Has anyone had lunch?' 'Yeah, I had some Frosted Flakes!' "

TV One Access's 16 Sexiest Black Women Alive

7/15/2008 0
The list also includes model/host Tyra Banks, singer Alicia Keys and “Deja Vu” star Paula Patton. There are other categories, such as “sexiest athletes” and “sexiest sense of style.” Michelle Obama, wife of Sen. Barack Obama, receives a special mention for “quintessential complete package.” Wouldn’t you like to know what she thinks of that? “TV One Access” didn’t mention Oprah Winfrey — proving that you can’t be on every list. But wait … “The women selected as our 16 sexiest black women aren’t just pretty faces,” said Monique Chenault, senior producer of “TV One Access.” “Each one of them is uniquely talented, strong-minded and self-assured. Now what could be sexier than that?” Is strong-minded and self-assured are the keys, where’s Oprah?

“TV One Access's 16 Sexiest Black Women Alive”:

16. Alek Wek
15. Beverly Johnson
14. Tyra Banks
13. Alicia Keys
12. Jada Pinkett Smith
11. Janet Jackson
10. Vanessa Williams
9. Iman
8. Angela Bassett
7. Lauren London
6. Paula Patton
5. Rihanna
4. Naomi Campbell
3. Beyonce
2. Gabrielle Union
1. Halle Berry

Stating the obvious, this list is all kinds of wrong. I agree with Halle's placement, but Alex Wek. Are they serious? Alek Wek has to be the ugliest woman I ever seen, in fact only about 5 of the women actually deserve a slot.

Will Smith Reveals Open Relationship With Jada

7/14/2008 0
Superstar Hollywood couple, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, have revealed that the secret to the success of their 11 year marriage is that they have an 'open relationship'. Speaking to Reveal magazine, Will
said the following:

"Our perspective is, you don't avoid what's natural and you're going to be attracted to people." he says.

"And if it came down to it, then one would say to the other: 'Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now, I'm not going to if you don't approve of it'.

"The 39-year-old star explains that the couple's open policy has been in place from day one of their 10-year marriage.

"In our marriage vows, we didn't say 'forsaking all others'. We said 'you will never hear I did something afterwards'. Because if that happens the relationship is destroyed.

"Other things that Will says are important in his relationship are keeping in shape for his "little firecracker" Jada, the "look in her eyes", and communication.

"And lots of sex makes for a good marriage too!" {Source}

Can't say I agree, but whatever floats your boat.
