In a scene straight out of a political thriller movie, Hollywood actress Michelle Yeoh, 48, was immediately deported from Myanmar June 22 upon arrival. A source from the military-backed government said Yeoh was placed on its blacklist but failed to give the real reason why.
This was to be her second visit; she was able to enter the country fine this past December. But on that visit, Yeoh met with a famous political figure that she’s playing in her next movie “The Lady” – pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi.
Suu Kyi, 66, is known for her political activism against the government. She’s won a Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts.

Next month Emma Watson can be seen in the final Harry Potter film, The Deathly Hallows Pt. 2, but today we get to see the beautiful young actress as a work of art … litterally. Artist Mark Demsteader has found inspiration in muse Emma Watson and has painted her likeness in a few differnet portraits. Check out some of them below.
She is more commonly subjected to the glare of the camera and red carpet flashbulb. But Emma Watson’s image has been captured on canvas by figurative artist Mark Demsteader. She is the star of his current exhibition ‘Emma’ at Panter and Hall, a London gallery that specialises in British contemporary art. The actress and model originally spotted Mark’s artworks on a trip home to Oxford and decided to buy a drawing as a present to herself for her 21st birthday this April. After exchanging emails Emma agreed to collaborate on a series of works, which are now being exhibited and sold for prices ranging from £3,000 to £8,000. Mark used photographs from a North London photo shoot he arranged with the young actress earlier this year to create the portraits. ‘I was slightly hesitant at first, not because (Read more...)
