Alex O'Loughlin Heats Up Big Screen With Jennifer Lopez

Aussie hunk, Alex O'Loughlin, and Jennifer Lopez, both are star in some steamy scenes in the new movie, "The Back-Up Plan." In the film, Jennifer Lopez plays Zoe, Mistress of the Universe-turned-New York City pet shop owner.  

 
Zoe owns a cute crippled doggie named Nuts. Zoe also has two quirky employees Eric Christian Olsen and Noureen DeWulf and an adorably harsh best friend named Mona, a delightful Michaela Watkins, who claims to hate her own four kids. Still, Zoe, a 30-something singleton, has decided to start her own family via insemination. Trouble is, I have to imagine venerable comic actor Robert Klein, who plays Zoe's gynecologist, with his gloved hands all up in her business.

"The Back-up Plan," which I have begun to call "The Back That Thing Up Plan," was directed by TV veteran Alan Poul and written by Kate Angelo and is marginally better than "She's Out of My League" and "The Bounty Hunter." If you don't like it, or its multiple poop jokes, wait and sample the upcoming "Letters to Juliet," Amanda Seyfried's -- what? -- 12th film this year.

Still, near the end of the seemingly endless film, Zoe and Stan -- and by association we -- are forced to watch a hippie single mother give birth in a wading pool. "I never want to see that again," says Stan afterward.

Alex O'Loughlin insisting his hard struggle to become famous but not acting

“I didn’t become an actor to get famous,” he said. “I became an actor because I love the work. I love being on stage, I love being part of a collaborative art form and seeing what we can create in a film............." quoted by Alex O’Loughlin. Often you can see these types of speeches made by the stars'. Hollywood’s hottest new hunk, Alex O’Loughlin commented on himself recently, "................without life experience, you can’t tell stories anyway. You’re a boring actor. I don’t really act like I’m famous. I just do my thing. I’m not that famous, dude. Sometimes I get pointed out or some people shuffle up and ask for an autograph or a photograph, but I’m not at a point where I can’t leave the house, thank God. I think the downsides would be losing your anonymity and not being able to trust people, to tell whether people want to be with you and get to know you because of your celebrity or because of who you are."

“I just try to carry the sense of integrity and authenticity I had in the beginning of my career, because I think that’s what makes people interested in you in the first place. It’s important not to lose that.”

O’Loughlin insists he wasn’t starstruck working with Lopez, who is married to Latino singer Marc Anthony.“I just know her as her, you know what I mean?” he said. “I know her as my costar, her husband as my friend Marc, I know Max and Emme as her kids and they’re my own little mates…I just don’t see it in that way. When I step away and look at it from that perspective, yes, she’s a brand, and the machine behind the J.Lo brand informs and creates that. She obviously wanted that, and in that case, she’s a very smart businesswoman because she’s made a lot of money, I presume, and she’s had a lot of success and is very well-known.

 “She must be pretty resilient, because I don’t want that. I’m not suggesting I could ever have that, but the other thing you’ve got to realize about Jennifer is that she’s as famous as she is based on her talent. She’s a very talented woman, an incredible singer, dancer and writer who’s very good at what she does, as opposed to these people you see these days who are famous for being famous. There are celebrities in this day and age who really have offered nothing artistically but they’re on the cover of magazines and stuff. That world, I don’t really get it.”

Is this just a kind of humbleness of Alex O'Loughlin?
