Heather Graham has become a witch - and is casting spells on Barack Obama.

The 'Hangover' actress has started a coven with her friends and they sent the US President positive energies so he would get elected to the White House.

She said: "It's just for fun. We never jinx someone with evil spells. We meet in order to release positive energy. When one of us wishes to meet a great guy, we try to have an influence on that.

"We sent Barack Obama positive energies, so that he would become the next president. I always liked magic. Now when I see Obama's picture in the paper, I feel good."

As well as witchcraft, 39-year-old Heather also believes in reincarnation and doesn't think it is an outlandish idea to think people's spirits live on.

Heather Graham gave her co-stars food poisoning.

The blonde star invited a group of actresses who were also appearing in 2001 movie 'From Hell' to dinner one evening after filming, only for at least one of her guests to fall ill immediately afterwards.

Welsh actress Joanna Page revealed: "Heather Graham invited four British girls from the 'From Hell' cast over for a dinner party and she made a chicken salad but it gave me food poisoning. On the way home I had to stop the car and throw up."

'Gavin and Stacey' star Joanna also revealed she accidentally asked Hugh Grant to bring her a meal on the set of his hit movie 'Love Actually'.

She explained to FHM magazine: "I was very nervous on my first day on 'Love Actually'. My mum had told me to eat or else I'd faint so I kept going, 'I need some food.'

Getting in on all the sporty action, Camilla Belle was spotted checking out the US Open men’s semi-finals in Flushing Meadows, Queens yesterday (September 13).

And it has been a busy week for Miss Belle, who has also been seen enjoying the festivities of Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week as of late.

On the career front, Camilla is currently working on a new comedy called “Father of Invention” also starring Heather Graham and Kevin Spacey.

Always one to show interest in the latest trends, Hilary Duff was spotted wandering around Bryant Park in New York City on Saturday night (September 12).

Looking classy as she partied it up for this year's Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, Miss Duff mingled with her fellow celeb pals including Amanda Bynes and Heather Graham throughout the evening.

Meanwhile, Miss Duff has been busy of late filming her guest role on the hit CW show "Gossip Girl" - which sees in its season premiere this Monday, September 14th at 9/8C.

With all sorts of drama sure to ensue, one of the show's regulars, Taylor Momsen, told MTV News, "Every script is shocking. You're just like, what are they going to do this week? It's amazing how much stuff they come up with for our characters to do."

Participating in the happenings as part of New York Fashion Week, Camilla Belle attended the Ralph Lauren celebration of Fashion's Night Out with The NY Academy of Art at The Rhinelander Mansion on Thursday night (September 10).

Looking ever-so-darling as she posed for pictures, the "10,000 B.C." cutie mingled with a star studded guest list in between chats with gal pal Elettra Rossellini.

Meanwhile, Miss Belle is currently working on a new Trent Cooper directed comedy called "Father of Invention".

Co-starring Heather Graham and Kevin Spacey, a movie synopsis via IMDB tells: "Robert Axle, an eccentric inventor turned ego maniacal infomercial guru, loses it all when one of his inventions maims thousands of customers. After 8 years in maximum security prison, Axle is ready to redeem his name and rebuild his billion dollar empire. But first he must convince his estranged 22 year old daughter to let him live with her and her quirky, over protective roommates. This character driven comedy is a heart warming tale of how love, resilience and a little bit of creative genius can connect even the most disparate forces. "

Stepping out for a trip down the red carpet, Heather Graham was looking lovely as she attended the Spanish premiere of “The Hangover” in Barcelona, Spain on Tuesday (August 11).

Held at Aribau Cinema, the “Boogie Nights” babe joined co-star Bradley Cooper for their overseas press duties boosting interest in the Stateside hit comedy flick.

The film is “a Las Vegas-set comedy centered around three groomsmen who lose their about-to-be-wed buddy during their drunken misadventures, then must retrace their steps in order to find him.”

As for new projects on the way, Heather has a couple of films in the pipeline; “Son of Mourning” and “Father of Invention.”

Enjoying some downtime from her usually hectic schedule, Heather Graham was spotted out on the beach in Barcelona, Spain yesterday (August 9).

The “Boogie Nights” actress was the center of attention as she pranced around the sand and shore in red and white polka-dotted bikini.

And of course, Heather wasn’t alone in her fun in the sun- she is on holiday with her film director boyfriend Yaniv Raz.

As for new projects on the way, Heather has a couple of films in the pipeline; “Son of Mourning” and “Father of Invention.”

Virginia Madsen has signed up to join Kevin Spacey in Father of Invention, the indie comedy about a billionaire inventor who loses everything, goes to jail and emerges to try to rebuild his life.

Spacey's the inventor, and Madsen plays his ex, who spends what's left of his fortune and remarries while he's languishing in prison (but also, y'know, becoming a better person and less of an egomaniacal git).

Camilla Belle, Craig Robinson and Heather Graham are also starring in the film, which Trent Cooper is directing. Filming's already started, so look out for this early next year, we're guessing.

The story follows a humble inventor-turned-egomaniacal billionaire (Spacey) who spends eight years in prison when one of his inventions goes awry. Upon release, he is seeks to rebuild his reputation and fortune but finds that easier than salvaging his relationship with his family.

Craig Robinson ("The Office") will play the husband of the former billionaire's ex-wife who now lives in his house and drives his car and helps Spacey get back on his feet after he gets out of prison.

Brazilian actress Camilla Belle ("Push") will play his daughter, a social worker hesitant to trust her father, while Graham ("The Hangover") is her lesbian roommate. Johnny Knoxville ("Killshot") will play a store manager who hires Spacey's character after his prison stint.

Production begins this week in New Orleans. Spacey is producing through his Trigger Street banner.

Heather Graham scares herself when she gambles.

The actress, who filmed latest movie 'The Hangover' in Las Vegas, had so much fun placing bets she got a little carried away.

She told FOX News: "I like to gamble - you get that kind of tingly feeling. It's almost like you're shopping and you get so excited about buying something - it is the same when you get a good hand. "And then I get super wired and then I kind of scare myself because I get too into it."

Despite enjoying the gambling side of Vegas, Heather recently revealed she was "disappointed" when she visited a strip club.

The 39-year-old blonde star learned to pole dance in preparation for her role as a stripper in 'The Hangover' and was astonished after seeing the less than impressive antics of her real-life counterparts.
