Here are the courtship secrets of the Obamas, Freida Pinto's unstoppable journey to stardom and Dustin Hoffman's teary breakdown in the world's most romantic city.
FREIDA PINTO
She might have not won any award, but there is simply no stopping Frieda Pinto. After featuring in Vanity Fair and making it to Vogue's top 10 best dressed list. Now, the 24-year-old is gracing covers of the Indian Vogue.
After director Danny Boyle's film Slumdog Millionaire helped her jumpstart her film career, it is being rumoured that Freida has already signed a Woody Allen film.
DUSTIN HOFFMAN
Seen shedding tears in the most romantic city of the world was actor Dustin Hoffman when he received an honorary award by the French Minister of Culture in Paris on Thursday.
The 71-year-old actor was accompanied by his wife for accepting the medallion of the French Commander in the Order of the Arts and Letters.
“I am sorry. It is a great honour but also at my age when you get to be my age you cry at the weather reports. Sorry,” says Dustin.
BARACK OBAMA
Now here's some trivia on President Barack Obama and his marriage to Michelle.
"Think it is fair to say that had I not been a Stevie Wonder fan, Michelle might not have dated me, we might not have married. So the fact that we agreed on Stevie, was part of the essence of our courtship. And I'm not alone millions of people around the world have found similar comfort in Stevie's music, in his unique capacity to find hope in struggle, humanity in common hardships,” says US President Barack Obama.
On Wednesday, the Obamas honoured the legendary pop singer with the Library of Congress' Gershwin prize in Washington DC. Incidentally, the First Couple also used You and I, a Wonder song, as their wedding song.
