Tom Cruise's politically-charged 'Lions for Lambs' opened very weakly last weekend, and MSNBC is reporting that industry insiders think his upcoming movie may share the same fate. The MSNBC source claims that Cruise "isn't making money in the theaters anymore, and considering that just about every penny that a movie makes has to go back to the actor, it makes it really tough for any films to make any money."

'Valkyrie,' Cruise's film about a Nazi officer who plots to kill Adolf Hitler, had its trailer leak on the Internet last week, and it has been met with less-than-stellar buzz. Entertainment Weekly's PopWatch blog wrote a post when the trailer leaked titled: Tom Cruise's 'Valkyrie' Looks Kinda Awful .

Former "Prison Break" actor Lane Garrison was sentenced to three years and four months in prison Wednesday for a drunken driving crash that killed a teenager last December.

The 27-year-old actor could have faced nearly seven years in prison.



Garrison was driving a 2001 Land Rover on Dec. 2 when he lost control and rammed a tree. The crash killed his passenger Vahagn Setian, a Beverly Hills High School student. Two 15-year-old girls in the car survived.

Garrison had a blood-alcohol content of 0.20 percent, more than twice the legal limit for driving, and was under the influence of cocaine, according to police.

The actor pleaded guilty in May to one count of vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence, one count of driving under the influence with a blood-alcohol level of 0.15 percent or higher and a misdemeanor of providing alcohol to a minor.

The Los Angeles County prosecutor's office has for four years and eight months, two years less than the maximum.

At his last court appearance Aug. 2, the actor apologized to the victim's family.

"I have relived that night every day and I think about the bad decisions I made. I can say to you I am so sorry that you lost someone because I love people. That is my first passion," he said.

When the folks at Esquire magazine recently named Charlize Theron "The Sexiest Woman Alive," the editors of Maxim knew they had to respond, and they did respond in an unexpected way.



No. 5 -- Britney Spears: The pop princess, who at one time was one of the biggest sex symbols in the world, was criticized for gaining "two kids, two useless ex-husbands, and about 23 pounds of Funyun pudge."



No. 4 -- Madonna: The Material Girl literally wrote the book on 'Sex' in the '90s, but since then she's turned off the magazine's editors with her "bellyaching and rapid postnuptial deterioration."




No. 3 -- Sandra Oh: The 'Grey's Anatomy' star made the list thanks to her "cold bedside manner and boyish figure."





No. 2 -- Amy Winehouse: The 'Rehab' singer's "translucent skin, rat's nest mane and lashes that look more like surgically attached bats" weren't enough to put her on top -- or, rather the bottom.




No. 1 -- Sarah Jessica Parker: The former 'Square Peg' was singeld out for being a "Barbaro-faced broad" and "the least sexy woman in a group of very unsexy women."

Like father, like daughter. We stumbled upon some pictures of Brad and Shiloh bearing striking resemblances.

Body language expert Patti Wood analyses the similarities between papa Brad Pitt and his daughter Shiloh.

He tells USmagazine.com , “They’re both looking off in the distance,” Wood observes, adding that most children look at the person who’s carrying them.

“But she isn’t. Shiloh wants to see; she’s an observer.”

The two also share the lines of focus and concentration across the forehead.

Says Wood, “It’s unusual for a child Shiloh's age to have them.”

Brad Pitt and George Clooney may be best friends. But sources reveal, Angelina Jolie isn't too fond of George.

The actress reportedly dislikes George so much she refused to attend the New York premiere of his movie ‘Michael Clayton’ last month.

A source told Life and Style Weekly magazine: “Angie is not particularly close to George, so she didn’t see why she had to be there.

“She asked Brad if he minded going alone, but Brad says it wasn’t really a question. And it was fine with him.”

Angelina, 32, allegedly fears lothario George will lead Brad astray, and distract him from his duties as a father.

The source added: “Angie doesn’t get along with any of Brad's friends. When they are back in Los Angeles she discourages him from going on boys’ nights out.”

Hollywood bachelor George Clooney has bet Michelle Pfeiffer $100,000 that he will never get married.

She tells British talk show host Jonathan Ross, “He’s just a great guy, great with kids.

I still think he will, he’s a handsome devil.”

George was actually married once before to actress Talia Balsam for four years.

Hugh Grant is known as a ladies man and he recently proved so in London when he had a wild night out with several women.

Dailysnack.com reports a source as saying, “Hugh was with at least three different women when he arrived at Boujis nightclub at 2.30 am. And he was certainly in good form.

He didn’t want to be caught on camera so one of the girls tried to cover his face.

“But as soon as he realised he’d been spotted, he turned around and headed back into the taxi. He then went off to private members’ bar Mamalanji until the early hours, where he enjoyed several table dances from women.

“When Hugh finally left at 4 am, he looked seriously sozzled and very much down in the dumps,” the source added.

George Clooney is so in love with the movie industry he is happy to work for free. The 46-year-old actor is determined not to let money get in the way of the projects he chooses to take on, so he is content to take a cut of the profit.

He says, “Working in films is what excites me. I make movies now for no money. I just take a share of the profits — if any. The important thing is to be proud of the movie. I don’t want to get to my 80s and be a rich actor who regrets the sort of movies I’ve made.”

Meanwhile, sources say, Clooney’s love for girlfriend Sarah Larson has intensified after he had a bike crash with her.

An insider said, “He normally keeps his private life private, but since the crash he has been showing off his girlfriend to the world and they are clearly very much in love.”

Cult filmmaker Quentin Tarantino is set to stun fans with his next project - an erotic movie. The Kill Bill director is a big fan of 1970's European soft-core sex films and admits he can't wait to make a modern day version.

He says, "If I actually do an erotic movie, I'm going to have to reveal what I find sexy, what turns me on. And when it comes to sex in movies, it's got to be kind of kinky, because that's what's cinematic, that's what's fun. Everything else is just - shagging."

However, he had doubts over the enterprise - and it's not filming the explicit scenes that bother him, it's the thought of promoting the movie that fills him with worry.

He adds, "My problem won't be revealing myself. My problem would be doing a press tour talking about me revealing myself. And how creepy that would be, how creepy the questions would be."

It will take more than a motorbike smash to dent George Clooney’s spirits.

The actor, out with girlfriend Sarah Larson for dinner in New York, was adamant it won’t stop them riding the bike.

Despite his obvious injuries including a huge wound under his neck and a bandaged arm, George told cameras, “It’s fine.”

The smash happened in New Jersey over a week ago and left George with a broken rib and Sarah with a broken foot.

But when asked if he intended to ride again, George said without a pause, “We always take the bike out. We are not quitters!”

CHARLIE Sheen has hit back at ex-wife Denise Richards’s accusations that he views child porn on the internet.

The star has also made the shocking admission that the FBI confiscated his computers in order to investigate the claim.

In her most recent court filing in a bitter custody battle, Richards accuses Sheen of “an attraction to underage women”.

But a furious Sheen has slammed these claims. He said, “The FBI was aware of these issues. I provided them with every computer I owned.

“The computers were returned two weeks later. Haven’t heard from them since. Period. The end.”

Sheen claims Richards filed “not a single complaint” about the welfare of the pair’s daughters — Sam (3) and Lola (2) — until he asked to pick his own nannies.

Hollywood tough guy Bruce Willis was turned away from a trendy New York nightclub last week — because doormen didn’t recognise him.

The Die Hard star showed up at top nightspot Socialista late in the night one day last week with an entourage of eight, hoping to be let in as a VIP.

But a source tells US gossip column PageSix.com that not only was he denied entry — bouncers let in others who arrived after him.

The source adds, “Bruce’s entourage started banging on the door, to no avail. I guess they had reached their massive-ego quota.”
