Anne Hathaway demo tape for the Queen Tribute Band
It's called, " Ella Enchanted (2004)"
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0327679/
Obviously a gem that slipped-through the cracks and inspired a casting-call for her her to eventually star in another version of Les Miserables, and her inevitable Oscar for her multi-talented skills as the pert, cute, and can sing-her-own-parts-kinna powerhouse (hate all the Les Miserable screen-adaptations, have yet to see this one).
Compare to these classic multi-talented hotties Debbie Reynolds, Rita Hayworth, Marlene Dietrich
The only modern actress' that come close in actual pipes and raw beauty are Scarlet Johansson and Nicole Kidman, who can pretty-much sing her tiny little cute Aussie ass off...
Oh wait, lest we forget the two dames from Chicago (2002), who can hold their own with the rest-Zeta-Jones and Zelweger, but Renée was trumped by Catherine in that film.
What movie is this from?
▶ THE FIFTH ESTATE Official Trailer
A more than passable Aussie accent by Benedict Cumberbatch. It's always a treat when someone does it well.
And @ghark - link?
New Roxy Ad: "Sexploitation" or Not? You Decide.
Stephanie Gilmore is an Aussie so *downunder
They actually show her face and show her surfing in another version of the ad:

Best Fails of the Week 2 July 2013
Is it just me, or did I hear way too many Aussies?
Can you do this ?
can you honestly not hear the difference between English and Aussie?
Is this a hot as hell asian with an english accent? I think my heart just exploded.
Can you do this ?
She's from Sydney, even if she was in Melbourne for this vid, so definitely an Aussie girl.
*downunder
Sounds like Australian to me.
The Badpiper Thunderstruck
*promote the *metal
also: *downunder not only because AC/DC are Aussies, but because this performance took place on the corner of Henderson and South Terrace in Fremantle WA, Australia
Russell Brand on MSNBC Mocking Media
AHHHH!!!
Tim Minchin is an Aussie!
Maybe it's too fast and complex for you.. Yeah, he uses posh words and rare terms but that's just one part of the act. It's a really nice twist on the other wise dumped down comedy. You compare a british and murikan cursing and the vocabulary is highly in the favor of the old UK punk...
Another good brit comedian is Tim Minchin, he has great vocabulary and some form of grace in his way of relaying information to another humanbeing. Both fellows makes people think and i like that.
As non-native english speaker, i enjoy good set of new words... Sometimes i wonder why 99,999% of the stuff i see on tv uses a lot of same words over and over to explain something that could be described with one word more accurately.
Water Bowl Prank Backfires
Nah mate, Aussies are just that good.
I gotta call fake on this one. The guy with the mop (i.e. the trickee) practically knew exactly how to hold the mop before he was asked. Look how he's already holding it up high before there's an explanation. Then how they swap places with each other is very scripted. The catch and throw was a little too perfect, as if rehearsed. The camera was also perfect angled so the trickster didn't step out of frame when he moved left. And why didn't trickee have any questions why he was being shown a new magic trick?

...so...how many AUSSIES are on the AMERICAN team?
Kinda funny.
Water Bowl Prank Backfires
An oldie, but a goodie .........nicely played too
They sound like Aussies to me.
Do the Russel Coight
Ah Glenn Robbins you funny bastard. While Russel Coight had its moments, he wasn't anywhere near as funny as Uncle Arthur - which I still think is one of the funniest characters/skits an Aussie comedian has ever done.

I can answer that easily, the vast majority of Australians including myself think that every word the NRA writes about Australia is a lie. Their videos take very old information out of context, and spin it into a story about another Australia and not the one we know and live in. Certainly there are some Aussies who like guns and look enviously at the U.S., and it therefore wouldn't be hard to fine one or two (out of 24 million) who will stand up and say "they took our guns!!!", but the majority are happy enough with the current laws... which is not to say they are perfect, because they aren't... they were drafted by clowns and have some really strange aspects (see @harlequinn's comment re competition pistol shooters for instance).
I don't think our legislation would suit the U.S. without some changes anyway, even apart from the dumb bits, it took into account the types of weapons common here and generally allowed people to own those types of weapon if they demonstrated a genuine need... so the list of allowed weapons would be very different in the U.S. than here. It was really just aligning all the state laws into one uniform national law rather than a lot of new controls (another point willfully ignored in the NRA articles btw, which assume a single date when everybody's guns were confiscated... wtf???).
The good part of our law is the idea that you don't just leave firearms lying around: only own them if you need them, keep them secured, if you don't need them any longer get rid of them.
Not that it really affects me either way, but it does seem to me that most of the most obvious firearms reforms in the U.S. are just reversing some things that the NRA lobbying has done over the past 20 years, and closing a few loopholes in current laws, rather than copying the Australian legislation to the letter.
Yes the narrative is tailored towards Americans and it is very very persuasive. I believe parts of it are true. I'd be interested in hearing what an Australian thinks about the NRA perspective. All you have to do is visit the NRA web site and look in the archives. I'm sure you can find many different news reports and videos covering the Australia and Mexico situation from their perspective. There will be more coverage of the Australia situation because it is considered a better analogue for what can happen with legislation. In general, there isn't much regard for whatever Mexico does legislatively. Mexico is only brought up as proof of a cultural phenomenon or confirmation of human nature from their perspective.
John Howard on Gun Control
Yeah, I have. I'm not the idiot who said the Australian attitude is "all firearms are evil".
I lived in Aussie for two years and even in that short time I could easily see that your sweeping generalisation was way off the mark. While there I saw a considered, thoughtful approach to what place firearms play in society. But hey, feel free to denigrate your country men as simplistic liberal fools.
You might think that I "display a high level of wanton ignorance" but really, that just marks your argument as kinda desperate. But as I said, I have far better things to do with my time than argue with you.
As has already been pointed out, I live in Australia, but that's besides the point. I have extensively researched our firearm laws and their history. Have you?
Perhaps I didn't phrase my words well enough - I was making a generalisation about how firearms are in fact treated in Australia. I've publicly stated in this thread that the laws pertaining to who owns firearms works well.
After reading your last comment I now agree with you, it's a waste of your time if only for the fact that you display a high level of wanton ignorance in regards to communication on this topic.
