Helen Mirren Is ‘Disgusted’ with Herself
Everyone has been buzzing about Helen Mirren’s Oscar accessory, and it wasn’t diamonds or pearls. Back in January, when Mirren was getting lots of kudos for her role in “The Last Station,” the 64-year-old actress revealed to “Good Morning America” (via People.com ) that she is "utterly disgusted" by a small, tribal-looking tattoo on her left hand that she got while she was "very, very drunk." *** Photos: Celebrity Tattoos *** "I decided to get a tattoo because it was the most shocking thing I could think of doing," she explained. "Now I'm utterly disgusted and shocked because it's become completely mainstream, which is unacceptable to me." Helen’s ink is rather small so you may not have noticed it.

Among other things, Giuseppe "Beppe" Bigazzi is known for his prize-winning cookbook La cucina semplice dei sapori d'Italia ("The simple cuisine of the flavours of Italy "). But as of this week, the flavour with which the TV gastronome is likely to be most closely associated is that of stewed cat.
