PEOPLE IN THE NEWS
Older sister of Venus, Serena
Williams shot to death
Depp scores again with
Once Upon a Time in Mexico
COMPTON, Calif. (AP) — An older sister of
tennis stars Venus and Serena Williams was
shot to death Sunday, and sheriff’s deputies sur
rounded a house where three suspects were
barricaded, authorities said.
Yetunde Price, 31, of Corona, was gunned
down shortly after midnight in the Los Angeles
suburb of Compton following a confrontation
with some residents, Los Angeles County
Sheriff’s Deputy Scott Butler said.
She was pronounced dead at a hospital.
At about 6 a.m., about 40 deputies surround
ed a home where three people believed
involved in the confrontation were barricaded,
Deputy Richard Pena said. No arrests were
immediately made.
Price was one of five Williams sisters who
spent their early years in Compton. The family
later moved to Florida.
Price was identified as a registered nurse and
a business management major in Venus
Williams’ personal information listed in the 2003
media guide for the WTA Tour.
Madonna wants third child
LONDON (AP) — Madonna wants to have
another child.
The 45-year-old singer and pop icon, who has
two children, told Britain’s Times newspaper
she was consulting doctors about having
another baby.
“Because of my exercising and this that and
the other, I’ve kind of screwed up my cycle a
bit,” Madonna was quoted as saying by the
newspaper’s weekend magazine that came
out Saturday.
“And I’m going to the doctors to make
sure I’m OK to have a baby, so wish me
luck,” she said.
Madonna has a daughter Lourdes, 7, from her
relationship with ex-boyfriend Carlos Leon; and
a son Rocco, 3, with her film-director husband,
Guy Ritchie.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Johnny Depp has
made another transformation: oddball actor lo I
box office moneymaker.
The star known for playing eccentrics in a*
favorites such as “Ed Wood” and “Fear an:
Loathing in Las Vegas" is establishing himse ;
as a major box office draw with two films to
weekend in the top five.
“Once Upon a Time in Mexico," starrw
Antonio Banderas as a mariachi-playinj
gunslinger and Depp as a sleazy CIA agent
debuted in first place with $24 million
according to industry estimates Sunday.
It was Depp’s second consecutive No. 1
debut after the summertime hit "Pirates
the Caribbean: The Curse of the Blac |
Pearl."
Analysts said Depp’s comical sashayinjl
swashbuckler in “Pirates" may have helpe:!
sell audiences on “Once Upon a Time r
Mexico,” which was written and directed b)
Robert Rodriguez as a sequel to his films “E
Mariachi” and “Desperado.”
“Johnny Depp’s career has been very inter
esting but he’s normally not in the big block-1
busters,” said Paul Dergarabedian, president)
of box office tracker Exhibitor Relations Co.
“Suddenly, he’s in the No. 1 and No. 5 movie in)
the same weekend. For any actor that’s great,
and for Johnny Depp it’s totally unexpected |
and welcome.”
Depp has had blockbusters before, such as)
"Sleepy Hollow” (1999) and “Chocolat
(2000), and modest hits like “Edwardl
Scissorhands” (1990) and “Donnie Brasco'l
(1997), but they have been few and fa
between the respected but little-seen cu
films like “Dead Man,” “Ed Wood,” “Benny I
Joon” and “Fear and Loathing.”
The first weekend’s ticket sales for “Once Upoi
a Time in Mexico” nearly matched the total $2531
million theatrical gross for 1995’s “Desperado,
which starred Banderas but not Depp.
