josh is finally taking a break from all this filming! It's about time he took some time off for himself! This article is from the June 11th issue of People Weekly. Thanks to the handful of people that let me know what this was from!
Despite the talk of women swooning, Hartnett -- whose previous steadies include hometown sweetheart Kelly Lee Carlson, 24, and
Coyote Ugly actress Izabella Miko, 20 -- will admit only to having a "sometime" girlfriend, who's not in showbiz. Prospective rivals might have a hard time tracking him down. Hartnett has been so busy
making movies, he says, "I don't live anywhere now." He is currently spending time in Morocco, where he's back in uniform to shoot Black Hawk Down, based on the bestselling account of a disastrous Army firefight in Somalia. It is scheduled for release early next year --
as is his romantic comedy 40 Days and 40 Nights. After that? Hartnett plans to take a break to travel in Africa and perhaps brush up on his hobby, oil painting. "It relaxes me because it's just me and the
canvas and there's no right way or wrong way," he explains. As for stardom, he says, "I'm going to ride this as long as I can and I like it. Fame is temporary, so sooner or later the plane is gonna land."
so if anyone's plannin on heading over to africa....

Premise: (taken from upcomingmovies.com) This is the true story of the Battle of Mogadishu, the longest sustained ground battle involving American soldiers since the Vietnam War. An elite force of 120 American Delta units and Ranger infantry were dropped into Mogadishu on October 3rd, 1993, to abduct two of Somalian warlord Mohamed Farrah Aidid's lieutenants. Instead, two UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters were shot down, and what was expected to take an hour lasted 15, resulting in the deaths of 18 Americans, 73 wounded, and hundreds of Somalians dead.
The movie is based on Mark Bowden's book "Black Hawk Down: A Story of Modern War". Filming is scheduled to start in Morocco on February 23, 2001.
