Michael Buckner is a fashion and celebrity photographer who travels around the world taking pictures on the red carpet. He gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the hottest entertainment industry events.


I covered the premiere at the Egyptian Theater for a independent movie called No Bad Days starring Michael Madsen (from Kill Bill) and Keith David from Super Hero Movie.

The movie is about evil tomb-raiders who rob precious Mayan artifacts but soon face a difficult opponent -- an unpredictable, rugged, ex-military operative who discovers his true self after ending five years in hiding. Our hero finds himself being chased through jungles, spying in underground waterways, and falling in love with an attractive, yet stubborn American woman searching for her missing mother (an archaeologist who was in the wrong place at the wrong time).

It sounds like a Jean-Claude van Damme flick.

Altogether, Michael Madsen, Heather Storm and Kelly Noonan showed up, along with an onslaught of red carpet seekers and faux fashionistas.

I'm just thrilled because I'm leaving from Miami for a week to cover Miami Fashion Week. So seven days from now I'll be on Miami Beach in swim trunks and boat shoes.
