The elder Shankar sister is branching out. But not in a scary, programmed, Olsen twins kind of way — more in a just-screwing-around kind of way. Norah Jones is doing a movie with HK auteur Wong Kar-Wai:

… Norah Jones is to make her acting debut in a film from Hong Kong director Wong Kar-Wai… With the working title My Blueberry Nights, it will be Wong’s first English-language film… [Link]

StudioCanal has set Jude Law, Natalie Portman, Rachel Weisz and Norah Jones to star in My Blueberry Nights, a romantic comedy… [Link via SM]

And last week the masked marvel played a surprise punk set at a New York club (via Sepia Mutiny, of course):

… we were told to stick around for No Jo — “Norah Jones’ new punk band,” someone explained. We didn’t know what to think. But we weren’t leaving. Seeing the Queen of Lite-FM strut up to the mic a few minutes later, slinging a guitar, sporting short shorts, fishnet stockings, an eye mask, and a blonde wig, our jaws fell. No Little Willies here: Meet El Madmo! …

… the playing was tight, and the girl’s got pipes. Did we mention the fishnets and short shorts? There were some decent tunes, some deft arrangements, and three absurdly talented kids having a good time on a Friday night. But overall it was just Norah taking the piss. [Link]

Girlfriend showed up dressed for the Exotic Erotic. You gotta love her for it. She’s trying something different. Rockin’ like a ho. Tasting strange potions. Just seeing where it goes.

I’m in the mood for love.
