We finally managed to track down a copy of the Fall/Winter 2008 (N. 29) issue of Self Service magazine, which features an exclusive photoshoot of Rose. It is a playful and flirty photoshoot, very fun and cute. Definitely one of my more recent favorites! It also features a photo of Robert Rodriguez, which I scanned because I know many of us are fans of him as well. Please note that there was no article on them inside. They were just part of a large photo portfolio.
As usual, please do not re-post these scans on other sites at all. The magazine itself was very expensive, not to mention the precious time it takes to scan and edit them. It is incredibly frustrating to see the images re-posted without any kind of credit. I do hope you will respect the hard work that I’ve put to scanning these. Thank you and enjoy!
We think it is fair to say that 2008 has not been the best year for Rose, professionally speaking. Many of her projects have been delayed, there has not been any major releases and the nasty gossip continues. However, she did co-host The Essentials and her private life seems to be in bloom as she recently announced her engagement to Robert Rodriguez.
This compilation of 2008 highlights is by the Rose-McGowan.com staff. Please feel free to post your own choices at the forum.
• Best news: Both agree: The engagement of Rose McGowan and Robert Rodriguez - if Rose is happy, then so are we! I love the idea of Rose co-hosting The Essentials, even if I did not get to see any of it. Also, the announcement of Red Sonja was certainly exciting.
• Worst news: Both agree: The passing of Rose’s beloved Fester. All of us fans know how much he meant to Rose. I also hate to see so many of Rose’s projects post-poned and how about the IRA comment and the aftermath? We still shudder to think of it all.
• Favorite magazine cover:
There was not really any covers this year.
Remember the Dogs 101 video that I posted a month or so back? Well, Laura has discovered a longer version of the episode, one that features even more of Rose and Bug McGowan! The video is a must see and will bring a tear to any dog lover’s eye. I’ve replaced the screencaptures with ones from the long cut.
Rose-McGowan.com will not be updated until January - unless there will be major news to post. We will not be coming online much and will be unable to reply to any emails or approve comments until then. But stay tuned! Our annual end of the year wrap up will be coming later this week.
Happy holidays, Merry Christmas and fabulous New Year 2009 to all of our visitors! We really love working on the site and appreciate your continued support. We can’t wait to see what 2009 will bring to Rose - and you can be sure that we’ll be here to cover it every step of the way!
Momentum Pictures have announced the UK Blu-ray Disc release of Death Proof and Planet Terror on 26th January 2009. Priced at £24.99 RRP each, the Grindhouse project that resulted in two separate films, Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof and Robert Rodriguez’s Planet Terror, comes to UK Blu-ray with all extras from the DVD releases intact.
Question: A while back you reported that Rose McGowan was replacing Katee Sackhoff as a guest star on Nip/Tuck. But there are clips from the new season that show Katee on the show. What’s the scoop? Is Rose still replacing her? — Tara Ausiello: Yes, but it’s complicated. You see, Katee originated the role of anesthesiologist Teddy Rowe in the latter part of Nip/Tuck’s 5th season — which got a very late start in production due to the writers strike. (The remaining eight episodes of season 5 will begin airing on Jan. 6.) When season 6 began production, Katee was no longer available, so e.p. Ryan Murphy hired Rose to assume the role. Actually, that wasn’t so complicated after all.
Today I’ve added candids from 2008 as well as various other photos, including Phantoms stills and a beautiful photoshoot taken at the Locarno Film Festival. Please click here to see everything.
