Gossips #17

(Year 234, Summer) Hello again! I'm ready with the 17th issue of my gossips column! Upcoming social season must wait until next issue, because there is so much in the line-up. Are you ready, too? Let's go!

As usual, we'll start with the royals.

Judith Ward celebrates 70!

(Year 234, Spring) Global Actress Judith Ward turns 70! Although she would have preferred staying at 69 for a few more years, she went for the big announcement, that a huge party is. In the formal invitation she made it clear that she wanted to check how it is to not limit your friends to the fame level right under your own! Perhaps it was a hint that she has passed the peak of her career, but there were certainly some suggesting that she is still afraid that all the guests would believe she wants their friendship after he party... This was obviously meant as a one night only.

Well, the guest list was long, but they all had some connection to either Judith personally, or to her long film career. The party can begin!

Plumbob Pictures Celebrations

(Year 234, Spring) Every year in Spring, Plumbob Pictures celebrates their latest productions with a huge gathering at their lounge in Del Sol Valley. Many celebrities will attend, ongoing productions will be confirmed, and new productions that are not yet casted will be announced, and finally - the ticket sales for the previous year will finally go official including the important Top 10! And - not to forget - the many stars that will pose before the event begins!

Judith Ward was only one of the many well known guests this weekend. She normally gets her fair share of attention, and this time she even had the lead in last year's biggest production, «Lemonade». Did her fame help that film reaching Top 1?

Gossips #15

(Year 233, Summer) Tune in for the 15th issue of my gossips column! It's a massive read, so please bring that tea mug! Welcome!

This time I have some long awaited and super hot gossips involving Judith Ward! But we will stop by in every corner of the kingdom, because there is so much going on everywhere! Juhuuu! What more can you ask for?

Artists Guild: Focus on Talent Agencies

(Year 233, Spring) Yesterday Vince Remeréz (75), painting artist and leader of the Artists Guild core group, met the press at Casbah Gallery in his home hood, Arts Quarter of San Myshuno. The occasion was that the Artists Guild worked closely with Talent Agencies last year in order to improve routines involving performing and creative artists - a work that is now about to close.

- This time we chose to look into the conditions for Actors, Models and TV-personalities. It turned out that the many talent agencies were too restrictive with what information they give out. New and hopeful performing artists will hardly get a contract and the system appeared as closed to anyone outside the right network. 

This had to be dealt with and new webpages are on their way.

Gossips #14

(Year 232, Winter) I'm back with he 14th issue of my wonderful gossips column! Welcome!

This time I tried to restrict myself, but you get a lengthy read anyway! Rest assured there is juicy stuff waiting - including the nude photo of a mature princess! You might notice that I will no longer use each district name for the heading graphics, instead we'll just have one graphical heading for each region. And - if you are like me, you are quite fed up with those eight regional numbers, so in the future I'll just stick with the regions' names. This issue will be the last where those numbers are included in the text - we got so much more important stuff to focus on than numbers, right!

Ward Park 25 Years Anniversary

(Year 232, Summer) A smaller event took place in Del Sol Valley last week, as Judith Ward invited the press to celebrate that Ward Park has been a public venue since 25 years. Obviously, locals did not care a lot, but if they had attended, they would have been treated with a surprise visit by HRH Queen Venezia!

Ward Park was established 25 years ago by film director Simerin Ward.

Ward Park was donated to Del Sol Valley residents in Year 207 by Film Director Simerin Ward (Y122-208). The park is quite spacious, but only a tiny square is equipped to be enjoyed by visitors. Hardly any improvements were made over the decades. So, Judith was proud to announce that she now has great plans! Although the lot is owned by community and she can not decide bigger changes just like that, she is still associated with the park and is allowed to minor administrative matters. Her plan might need regional approval, though.

New Bowling Hall Opened by Judith

(Year 232 Spring) Last night Mazaloom got its very first bowling hall! It is located in the basement under the Gym at Commercial Area of Gloomville, and although the location is not perfect as visitors might switch between the gym and the bowling, it is a perfect location to train your bowling skill!

And, to throw the very first bowling ball on the opening night, no other than global star Judith Ward had volunteered to show off her bowling skills!

- I played bowling when I lived in Sim City, and also my 2nd husband, film director Simerin Ward, was into this nice sport. I would normally beat him, though! We actually discussed founding the first bowling alley in Del Sol Valley back in the days... My Simerin sure had the funds needed, *shrug*

Gossips #10

(Year 231, Fall) Welcome to the TENTH edition of my gossiping column! Yay! Ten editions is quite cool if you ask me! Despite social season just closing with the annual grand ball, this time I had to skip the bigger names in both nobility and royalty terms. But there is so much gossips anyway, and Mrs Ward did not manage to stay out of sight this time either...!

I'm Antoinette Morck, milk farmer from Henford-on-Bagley, but many years as a city resident thought me to keep an eye on celebrities of Mazaloom kingdom, and this is where I share!

I did travel a bit, including Chestnut Ridge, but first let's start in Windenburg!

Judith Ward reacts to Horse Ball

(Year 231, Summer) In a press release global movie star Judith Ward (67) reacts negatively to the currently marketed Horse Training Ball printed with her face. It is the Sim City based company Horse-of-Course, that has released the questioned design.

The film star claims: «Using my beautiful face commercially on this horrible product is not acceptable without my permission. Such a permission can only be given at a very high cost, as I'm not the slightest interested in horses. I claim Horse-of-Course, Inc. to remove the design from all stores immediately!»

Judith Ward Leaks own Appearance!

(Year 230, Winter) The Simmerville Show nevber reveals their guests beforehand, so this week most were taken by surprise when one of the guests of the soon to air show was leaked: Actress Judith B. Ward (66) claims to be guesting the popular show - and this info was leaked by Judith herself...

The global star has been guesting the Simmerville Show also in the past. This year she has been very active with lead role in two movies, where one of them were directed by herself.

We can't wait to find out what she will be talking about this time, and not the least - who are the other secret guests?

Warm up by checking out previous editions of the Simmerville Show (Youtube).

Judith Ward's new Movies

(Year 230 Fall) Late Summer there was a film premiere from Simmerville Studio, and this Winter there is yet another one! Both movies feature global star Judith Ward (66).

Added: Now available for download!

At the press meeting in the studio café in Gloomville few weeks ago, that also presented financial overcasts and a line up of future productions, CEO Fritz Mervil (38) more than hinted that the two movies had taken longer than expected thanks to conflicts between crew and cast. When a journalist asked whether the conflict included Judith Ward, Mervil quickly changed subject.

Gossips #7

(Year 230, Summer) Antoinette Morck is back with gossips half way into the Social Season!

- Want some more gossips? Summer is Social Season, especially for nobility that will gather at a higher frequenzy. There are no doubt more garden parties, weddings and gala banquetes this time of year. There are normally no stately receptions or representation, allowing for the code and tone to be a bit more impulsive and relaxed. Social Season avtually has its own series of Royal Acts where Monarchs over time did adjust the guidelines. Long ago Social Season lasted longer, these days it's officially four weeks long. It's expected that all noble households throw some event, but it won't need to be a full scale ball. Three guests for a tea party in your fine garden would do. Whenever rich people get together is also high season for charity. The expectations build according to your House's noble rank, and the season always closes by the grand ball at the Royal Palace.

Gossips #6

(Year 230, Spring) Her is Antoinette Morck with more gossips from around the kingdom (and beyond)!

- Are you ready for some gossips? So much is going on right now! Spring is to be replaced by Summer, but the royal palace still did not announce the line-up for this year's Investiture Day - where nobles get their medals and knighthood. That announcement is traditionally made within end of Spring. And - there are several weddings coming this Summer, but we might need to get back to some of those events in my next issue.

Gossips #5

(Year 230, Spring) Her is another issue of gossips from Antoinette Morck!

- Today I'm happy to share tons of gossips with you! Let's (almost) ignore the royal family for now, and rather check rumors from other corners of Mazaloom! His Majesty the King is busy addressing equality, but the announced press conference has not yet taken place and my in-palace contacts keep silence. But don't worry, we've got so much to focus on elsewhere!

The Simmerville Show #3

(Year 230, Spring) Fritz Mervil is here with the 3rd issue of The Simmerville Show, recorded at Fun Factory with a live audience! This time the guests discuss high school, royal blood, acting and politics. You will recognize a couple guests even if you don't follow this blog.

The Simmerville Show is a nifty way for me to share stories and builds from my Mazaloom. There's plenty of references to the past, but you won't need any knowledge of my sims universe to watch, neither will there be many links between the shows. Each show lasts about 8-10 minutes.

I hope you'll enjoy :)

Gossips #4

(Year 230, Spring) Antoinette Morck is back with more gossip! We're done with the election, so let's focus on the real celebrities!

- I expect some royal gossip coming up shortly, and it really is long overdue as TRH King Tarriot and Queen Venezia have not made any puplic appearance in a while. We learned that a new portrait was revealed at the palace's Gallery, and that's interesting but not really gossip-ish. It's a fact.

Gossips #3

(Year 230, Spring) Antoinette Morck is here again with some gossip! 1st day of Spring is Election Day, but let's take a break from all Politicians and rather focus on the rich and famous - for other reasons than begging for our votes!

- I dressed up a bit, because I promised you a Del Sol Valley special, and here we are in the very heart of our kingdom, and the central stage of the entertaining industry: Del Sol Valley! I've dug up some not yet confirmed rumors, as well as a few fresh press releases that did not yet reach the press!

Gossips #1

(Year 229) You might recall Antoinette Morck either from co-hosting the REG12 News, or for being the city girl buying a cow farm in Henford-on-Bagley and moving there with her hubby and their 5 kids. Now she is back with a regular gossips section on this blog! Just another way to keep track on some of the celebrity stuff going on in this corner of SimNation!

- Welcome to this first edition of my brand new GOSSIPS column! Becoming a country girl does not mean that I'm not keeping an eye on the celebrities, and here I'll share some of the gossips with you - while I'm not busy tending my five children and four milk cows... I worked with TV and Media production for some time, and because I can prepare this from home, it won't be as time consuming. As soon as we've got this column running, I might pass it on to a younger reporter - contact Simmerville Studio if you are interested!

Judith Ward pregnant at 64!

(Year 229, Del Sol Valley) Global moviestar Judith Ward (64) is pregnant! Last night she did nothing to hide her growing belly.

Journalists and fans hanging outside the old Studio PBP got themselves a scoop when our days' biggest star of the silver screen walked by. Wearing a rather tight outfit with a huge ribbon deco on the front, there was not really a point in asking whether the global star is expecting her second child.
