Troll 'too well endowed'
Stuff Entertainment
The big scary cave troll in Peter Jackson's The Fellowship of the Ring would be even scarier were it not for the censor. Special effects workers originally designed the troll to be naked, but apparently it was too well endowed for the film to get an M rating. Designers then suggested strapping an orc around the troll as a loin cloth, but Jackson turned that down, too, after having a good laugh.

Liv Tyler's cutting hair treatment
posted by Stacie
Lord of the Rings" star Liv Tyler insures her hair is kept in top condition - by shipping snipped samples of it to her hairdresser. The daughter of Aerosmith rocker Steven Thler sends snippets of her tresses to expert Tina Cassaday, who was recommended to Liv by actress pal Penelope Cruz. Cassaday, who analyses the hair to work out suitable treatments, currently has Liv's vitamin-depleted locks - the result of washing with well water - on a moisture-replenishing program, which includes overnight applications of Cassaday's Banana Conditioner and rubbing ice cubes over the hair from root to tip. The ice treatment is supposed to close the cuticle and leave the hair shiny and smooth.
