Shania Twain From humble beginnings in a dirt-poor mining town in Northern Canada Shania Twain has become one of the most successful female solo artists of all time.

Miss Congeniality - (DVD) Pleasant enough comedy thriller starring Sandra Bullock as hard talkin' no nonsense FBI agent who is forced into a dress to go undercover at a beauty pageant to catch a serial killer. Michael Caine Benjamin Bratt and William Shatner lend a helping hand. Still in search of a decent hit after a string of dodgy movies Sandra Bullock stars and co-produces this likable effort. The plot in which the pixie-ish Bullock plays a tomboyish and clumsy FBI agent (a little too many jokes rely on her falling over) proves that she actually looks good in a dress while in the process of catching a serial killer is a touch predictable but well made and slickly paced so entertaining regardless. Although Bullock makes a watchable heroine the supporting cast are a lot more fun. Witness Michael Caine for example as the camp handler assigned to her or William Shatner and Candice Bergen as the show's organisers. Not that Bullock is bad of course she does prove here - once and for all perhaps - that no other actress working in Hollywood today can fall over for comic effect so well. ...
