Norristown native actress Maria Bello graces the cover of the May/June Philadelphia Style, the mag’s 10th anniversary issue.
In the new issue, Bello, a 2000 Style covergirl, talks about going to a Manayunk tattoo parlor with her dad Joe to get tattoos. Bello got a small Celtic symbol on her hip that means “possession,” while Joe got “the most gigantic tattoo of the Eagles symbol on his arm.” Bello told editor Sarah Schaffer that she was recently back in town for a cousin’s wedding where the whole family did the Mummers strut and sang the Eagles fight song.
The actress will appear in the upcoming “The Private Lives of Pippa Lee,” and has been developing a drama series for HBO.

“The Company Men” ‘s first wives club is expanding. We hear that Tony-winning, Lowell-born actress Maryann Plunkett has signed on to play Chris Cooper’s wife in the recession-inspired drama, which has been shooting here (Boston) the past few weeks. UNH grad Plunkett – whose real-life husband, Jay O. Sanders, recently starred in the Huntington Theatre Company’s run of “Two Men of Florence” – joins “Mad Men” star Rosemarie DeWitt (she plays Ben Affleck’s wife) and Maria Bello, who has been filming scenes with Tommy Lee Jones. Bello’s in danger of picking up a Boston accent: She’ll stay in town to film “The Lake House” with Adam Sandler and Rob Schneider. . . . In other “Company” news, Framingham resident Jim Idzal says he and wife Leslie are trying to decide whether to keep renovations made by the film’s crew. Before scenes with Affleck and Kevin Costner were shot at the Idzals’ home last week, the crew made the couple’s living room a dining room, and their dining room a living room. Idzal said he and his wife aren’t opposed to the switch – it’s just confusing. “We moved out for about two weeks because they were redecorating the whole first floor.” Idzal said Costner was the most outgoing of his guests; Mr. “Field of Dreams” took the time to socialize with neighbors and take pictures.

Celebrities love a worthy cause, which perhaps explains why a dozen of this town’s better known film and television actresses made a pilgrimage to the Skirball Center Monday to stand up and be counted as people who care about women’s health and education on the African continent.
The event was a conference bringing together the wives of 15 of Africa’s political leaders with Melanne Verveer, President Obama’s ambassador-at-large for global women’s issues, and a clutch of nongovernment (NGO) groups including U.S. Doctors for Africa.
For the organizers, the allure of the celebrities was clear: to attract the local media, especially television, who turned out in thick clusters. Quite what the celebrities themselves thought they were up to was less clear.
“I’m here primarily to learn and to be a witness to a wonderful exchange of information,” said a less than confident Diane Lane, looking elegant in a blue summer dress and straw hat but thematically sounding way, way out of her depth.

A group of African first ladies began a two-day meeting in Los Angeles on Monday to forge U.S. partnerships to try to improve health and education of women and girls in African communities afflicted by AIDS.
The wives of the presidents and prime ministers of Kenya, Nigeria, Angola, Zambia, Cameroon and 10 other nations teamed up with U.S. health experts, nonprofit groups and a clutch of celebrities to promote their work.
“Nowhere before in the United States has such a large group of African first ladies come together to talk as one,” Ted Alemayhu, founder of the Los Angeles-based U.S. Doctors for Africa, told a news conference.
Hollywood actresses Diane Lane, Maria Bello, Robin Wright Penn and Camryn Manheim were among the celebrity women who attended an opening day luncheon.
