Destiny’s Child releases
book, asks ladies to
“put some clothes on”
NEW YORK (AP) — Destiny's Child's new
(single "Nasty Girl," which chastises scantily
Idad women and tells them to "put some
clothes on," may seem contradictory com
ing from a trio known as much for their
[bare midriffs as their soulful sound.
The group says there is a difference
(between dressing sexy and dressing nasty.
"A classy girl can wear something classy
[and still be sexy," singer Beyonce Knowles
told The Associated Press on Tuesday night,
[dressed in a short miniskirt.
"It doesn't mean you can't wear your
j stomach out or wear a short skirt. That does-
j n't mean your nasty, because you dress sexy.
It's how you carry yourself," she added.
Knowles, Kelly Rowland and Michelle
| Williams were dressed casually as they
celebrated the release of their book, Soul
Survivors: The Official Autobiography of
Destiny's Child, at a party in midtown
Manhattan. In the book, they discuss
some of the turmoil that has engulfed the
group — three former members left under
PEOPLE IN THE NEWS
acrimonious terms — and about their
childhood.
"We got a chance to put all the rumors to
rest. I think it gives people the chance to
know Destiny's Child on a personal level,"
Williams said. "Like us growing up — how
some of us dealt with bullies, and self
esteem. I know for me, I had no father fig
ure ... it's a lot of things people will know
and learn about."
Angelina Jolie begins
filming in Thailand for
new movie
BANGKOK, Thailand
(AP) — Location filming on
a romantic adventure
movie starring Angelina
Jolie is scheduled to begin

Thailand.

idealistic relief workers, is
being directed by Martin Campbell, whose
previous films include GoldenEye and
Vertical Limit. Clive Owen, who most
recently appeared in Cosford Park, plays

Jolie's love interest.
Co-producer Lloyd Phillips said
Wednesday that about five weeks of
shooting in Thailand will wrap up main
filming on the movie, which began pro
duction in December. Previous shooting
was done in Namibia, standing in for
Ethiopia, and Montreal, standing in for
London and Chechnya.
The film's Thai locations will stand in for
Cambodia, the site of an extended human
itarian crisis throughout the 1980s as it
struggled to recover from the devastating
rule of the communist Khmer Rouge.
Phillips said he expects the film to be
released around Christmas.
The story, which covers a 10-year period,
takes its protagonists from London to
Ethiopia to Cambodia and Chechnya. Jolie
plays a married American socialite in
London who falls in loves with an idealistic
doctor played by Owen.
In real life, Jolie serves as a goodwill
ambassador for the U.N. High
Commissioner for Refugees and has visited
relief camps in Cambodia, Pakistan and
Africa. The star of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
and her husband, actor Billy Bob Thornton,
recently adopted a Cambodian infant.
