Actors Michael Ealy and Morris Chestnut have enjoyed renewed success in recent years with comedies such as ‘Think Like A Man’ and ‘The Best Man Holiday.’

Yet, perhaps keen to flaunt their flexibility, the stars join forces for dramatic thriller ‘The Perfect Guy’ – which also stars Sanaa Lathan.

Due in US theaters on September 11th (and the UK in November), the film follows successful lobbyist Leah Vaughn (Lathan); after a painful breakup, she jumps into a passionate relationship with a charming stranger (Ealy). When ex-boyfriend (Chestnut) resurfaces in her life, she has to figure out who she should trust and who she should fear.

To further whet appetites, Sony have unleashed a titillating new trailer. Check it out below…

Readers of That Grape Juice know what avid music lovers we are – especially of hits past.

So, just as our retrospective features ‘From the Vault’ and ‘TGJ Replay’  allow us the chance to re-spin the gems and jams of yesterday of one artist, Chart Rewind – a variation of our current Retro Rewind assay – accedes salutes to an entire era of music history.

On this #TBT we press play on splash hit ‘Genie In A Bottle,’ the official debut single from pop powerhouse Christina Aguilera.  Dominating radio and video countdowns alike, the teen pop tune – the inaugural offering popped from her self-titled debut album – shot to #1 on the Hot 100 and was the first of three chart-toppers from the project.

Dethroning then chart-champion Will Smith‘s ‘Wild Wild West’ and fending off competition from the likes of Enrique Iglesias, Destiny’s Child, and more, ‘Genie’ granted Aguilera an impressive 5 week run in summer 1999 and marked the third time that year a female debuted at #1 with her first single (see:  Britney Spears’ ‘Baby…One More Time’ and Jennifer Lopez‘s ‘If You Had My Love’).

It was simply a good year for pop!  Check below to see what other familiar faces you see in the top 20 this week in 1999:
