Adoring Amber Heard will likely not be updated until early January – unless there will be major news to post. We will not be coming online much and will be unable to reply to any emails or approve comments until then. But stay tuned! Our end of the year wrap up will be coming later this week.

Happy holidays, Merry Christmas and fabulous New Year 2009 to all of our visitors! We really love working on the site and appreciate your continued support. We can’t wait to see what 2009 will bring to Amber – and you can be sure that we’ll be here to cover it every step of the way! :)

We will very likely launch a discussion forum at some point but while waiting, be sure to check out the Adoring Amber Heard community at LiveJournal, especially if you’re at LJ yourself. At the community you can find related icons and chit chat about the actress and her projects. Come and join us!

More Amber gorgeousness awaits you in the gallery. :)

Yesterday Amber Heard attended the D&G Flagship Boutique Opening Benefiting The Art of Elysium in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Miss H. looked incredible in a beige pink dress with black pearls and heels… and tada! Amber is now sporting black locks! Back in September we saw her hair already getting darker with brown.

What do you think of her new look? I personally think she looks absolutely stunning and I love the new look! But as if Amber could do any wrong …

James Franco, Amber’s co-star in Pineapple Express has snagged himself a Golden Globe nomination for the film! I bet you never thought you’d hear that! But it’s fabulous news to anyone who has seen his hilarious performance.

Best Performance by an Actor – Drama

Thanks to Julie we have more images from the previously unknown photoshoot Amber did this year. We now know it was for Hollywood Life. I haven’t seen Amber featured any in the few issues I skimmed this year but as always if you have the spread or know of the month please inform us so we can see about obtaining it. Unfortunately these pictures are quite small but we added them as they have no watermarks and you still probably want to view them like us and little art may always be made with these. This is such a stunning shoot I hope we’ll see them all larger one day!

Great news! According to AOL.com The Informers will premiere next month at the Sundance Film Festival. The independent film showcase runs January 15-25, 2009 in Park City, Utah. I think I am speaking for everyone when I say that this is the film that we are all dying to see as it features Miss Heard is a risque role that is completely different from any she’s tackled in the past. Here’s to hoping that Amber herself will be in attendance at the premiere.
