Glenn Close Launches Naval Counterattack

The star wants the world to know she's "distraught" that she's been dragged into a naval scandal involving offensive videos made by a U.S. Naval Captain that made use of Close's image without her consent.

Seriously, did anyone not see her in Fatal Attraction or The Shield or Damages? You don't want to piss this lady off.
"I am distraught that my image has been used to perpetuate something that I abhor," said Close via a statement issued through her publicist. "The cynical, unauthorized use of my image in this video is deeply offensive and insulting, and was the result of a seemingly innocent request made during a visit to an aircraft carrier over four years ago."

Just what exactly does the 63-year-old actor object to?

The series of videos were made three and four years ago by Capt. Owen Honors of the U.S.S. Enterprise, one of America's premiere aircraft carriers. The videos were meant to be a morale booster for seamen serving long deployments, but some ended up crossing the line into homophobic behavior and anti-gay slurs.

Sanjay Dutt to avoid advertising tobacco products

Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt has decided against promoting gutka brands and tobacco products, saying he noticed that young and impressionable minds can be affected badly through these brand promotions. Sources close to the actor said Dutt had read newspaper reports about doctors asking him to stop promoting gutka products in a letter.”He had not received any such letter. But, he made up his thoughts to do so. He will not continue his agreement with the gutka brand,” they said.

According to the sources, Dutt is also trying to stop smoking.”He would like to set an example for his children. He has decided to quit using and promoting products that are considered bad for health. However, all this will happen gradually, as there is also his existing deal with the gutka company to consider,” they said.”The actor has realized that young and impressionable minds can be influenced adversely through these brand promotions. He is planning to take corrective measures soon,” they added.

Doctors organisations had last week written a letter to the actor asking him to stop endorsing gutka and tobacco.
