That was actually funny, Sheryl. Take notes Natalie Cole. That's the proper way to reprimand people's praise of a dying crackhead.

"Moby's "very brief affair" with Natalie," the stage play:

ACT I, SCENE 1

[A well-appointed and tastefully decorated room.]

SFX: A telephone rings. NATALIE PORTMAN enters.

NATALIE: Hello?

[A pause as Natalie listens to the caller]

NATALIE: What? Uh, NO.

[NATALIE hangs up the phone]

NATALIE (to herself): Nerd.

[CURTAIN]

Wow! Who knew Sheryl Crow had a sense of humor?

I want to start a pool to see how long it takes before Kat(i)e Holmes's back gives out from all the slouching down to Tom's height. Seriously that picture makes me want to give the girl an asprin. I say 5 years. Any takers?

byoolin: awesome. It deserves a Tony.

PGM - thanks for your support.

Also, I don't think Katie's slouching in that pic. I think Tom's in a booster seat.

Silly Moby...they hated you LONG before you had anything to do with Portman.

P.S. to Crow: Just because Winehouse is hot right now doesn't mean that she doesn't suck.

Is it just me, or is Kat(i)e wearing a tablecloth in that pic?
I hate Tom. So why do I love his sweater vest?
I feel dirty.

I saw Diddy in Monster's Ball and JT in that movie where Christina Ricci spends half the movie in her underwear.

They. Were. Awful.

I would say stick with your day jobs, but I'm not fans of their musical endeavors either...so...never mind.

will and jada look like that married couple in the picture and tom and katie look like the akward family members who happen to be at the same table. yikes!

melissamac1,
People.com has the same photo up on their site, but they have Tom and Kat(i)e cropped out, and the caption is "so happy together"
har har

The Clooney article is hilarious, even without watching the video (can't at work).

-I like what's on the plate. It looks tasty.

-Essence should just admit that they are honoring Jada for: 1) being a black woman who married well, and 2) they want to spend the afternoon with Will Smith.

-Congratulations to Jennifer and Marc

-OMG, what happen to Aaron Carter. He used to be a cute kid.

millie, Black Snake Moan. I thought Christina and Samuel L. Jackson were great. Didn't even realize JT was in it, that's how forgetable his perfomance was I guess.

byoolin, I second the Tony nom. Great stuff.

"Jennifer Lopez reportedly delivers twins" -- Is J. Lo driving for Domino's, now? Was it a two-for-one coupon special? And did the customer get some of that sticky cinnamon bun dessert goodness? Hey, I'm just asking.

Liz, your bias is so evident and hilarious. The paparazzi were arrested for hounding Britney Spears; it's so strange why you don't want to say that!! I guess you don't want to acknowledge that she IS being harassed? I dunno...

I'd like to think Sheryl Crow was joking. However, I totally believe she would go to rehab if she thought it would help her career. She really is that vapid.

I do not want to know what happened at Kutcher's birthday party that people need shots.

Katie just looks frightening in that pic. She is beyond a Stepford wife now.

Diddy, just because you want to be a movie star does not mean the rest of us want you to. Go away now.

Congrats to Jennifer and Marc.

I thought he changed the name. Is it back to Diddy now? Anyway, he needs to stop getting roles. I just know he's gonna stink up "A Raisin in the Sun". First Beyonce as Etta James and now this. Why o why!?

The Smith and Cruise crew looks cute. Despite the weird thing happening with Katie's dress.

Pretty funny Byoolin.

This is so mean, but I hope JLO's babies look like her. :)

Liz, it's "Lutfi." Or are you misspelling it on purpose to show how he's so insignificant that we shouldn't even be bothered to get the name right?

Vaccinations of the stars! I love it. Isn't Hep A the huge shot you get in your butt? Great visual with that.

fair and balanced, please explain why you insist that LizKelly is being biased? Britney was involved in only one of the incidents. She placed it, appropriately, in the "Crimes Watch" section.

Geez, "fair and balanced," let it go already.

I am gonna have to agree with Lisa1 re: Jade Pinkett Smith. I decided to check out her IMDB page and unless they are honoring her for her work in "Woo", what has she done significant other than marry very well?

"Madonna, Demi Moore among A-listers urged to get hepatitis A shot" -- no health threat; they just deserve a painful needle in the butt.

"Diddy ready to be a movie star" -- yeah, and I'm ready to be Tom Brady. Does he think that will earn him another name change?

Is it just me, or does anyone else think that the Sci-Fi Cruiser likes hangin' with Will Smith because it gets him invited to better parties?

Vaccinations of the stars!

Do I smell a new reality show?

Thanks for the "Lutfi" catch -- a mere slip of the keys. Fixt now.

PGM - thanks for your support.

Also, I don't think Katie's slouching in that pic. I think Tom's in a booster seat.

Ditto, byoolin.

However, I think Katie is slouching and next time Tom needs to ask for two phone books.

I didn't click on the Stallone link because I didn't think anything in the article could possible top calling him a 'fat lunatic'. Classic

byoolin, totally agree w/the accolades!

BTW, Liz Kelly,
Thanks for the George Clooney. NYT also has a nice video of him on their site. I have something lovely to daydream my Friday away with.

re Jada, I think you need to read a little more.

Appearances in over thirty movies and TV shows. Producer of four movies and 24 episodes of "All of Us". Writer/director of "The Human Contract". Creative editor. I could go on, but your attitude leads me to believe you just wouldn't get it.

I like Kate's new haircut. It looks alot better then that odd bob she got a little while back.

What the heck is Moby talking about?

Can we discuss Chins of the Stars? They all seem to have these identical massive square chins these days, men and women. Jennifer Aniston was the first person I noticed with The Chin, but now it's everywhere.

Are those real chins Jada, Will, et al (but not on wee Tom), or are they all getting implants? Does being thin automatically render one en-chined?

I feel so slackjawed these days. :-(

From the Reuters story:

Pinkett Smith is one of Hollywood's most versatile and gifted actresses,
as well as a talented screenwriter/producer/director.
She is developing several projects for her own production company, 100%
Womon, as well as for Overbrook Entertainment. Chief among those is "The Human
Contract," which also marks the debut of Pinkett Smith as a writer/director.
Pinkett Smith also created and executive produced the television sitcom "All
of Us" on the CW Network with her husband and fellow actor Will Smith. Her
work as an actress can be seen in a number of feature films, including The
Matrix Reloaded, Matrix Revolutions, Collateral, Reign Over Me, Ali, The Nutty
Professor, Set It Off , Menace II Society and the upcoming film The Women.
Her big break came when she landed a role on the long-running NBC-TV series A
Different World. In addition to being the lead singer of the pop/rock band
Wicked Wisdom, author of the popular book, Girls Hold Up This World, and one
of the primary investors in the skin-care line Carol's Daughter, the active
wife and mother-along with her husband-also finds time for philanthropic
pursuits through the couple's Will and Jada Smith Family Foundation.
"ESSENCE is pleased to honor Jada Pinkett Smith for her body of work in
Hollywood and within the African-American community," said ESSENCE editor-in-
chief Angela Burt-Murray. "The ESSENCE Black Women in Hollywood Luncheon will
celebrate the talent, vision and legacy of Jada and all of our honorees. We
hope this event will also inspire a new generation of African-American
actresses and filmmakers in Hollywood."

Thanks sunnydaze.

e, you're absolutely right about the chins. Jada's new chin (definitely implants) looks suspiciously like Will's.

I hate Tom's vest. It makes me hate him more than I already do.

The best thing about Tom's vest is that it makes him look like a ten-year-old whose mom dressed him. He's as rumpled as Columbo in that thing, and the other three are all looking fabu.

Re Jada's chin...

I was just on hold with a government institution, and even though my time is valuable to them and my call would be answered within *1* minute, I was able to scan through 127 of 211 photos of Ms. Jada on her imdb page.
Conclusion - her chin is real. I made it back to March 2002 and she had it then, but most telling is that her kids also have that chin and I really doubt the Smiths have had chin jobs done on their kids.
And in case anyone is interested, my call was finally answered and my forms are on their way to my fax machine (I'll look for them later...)

Oh, Nicole. Why? Just ... why?

I can't believe I'm bringing up the b word again, but since there seem to be some experts on the blog, anyone think Rumer Willis has had implants? Or is that just youth? Or a push-up bra?

http://www.people.com/people/gallery/0,,20179515_2,00.html

I can't believe I'm actually writing this, because Sean Combs is not a favorite of mine. But he starred in A Raisin in the Sun on Broadway for an extended run and got rave reviews but the tough Broadways critics. I have heard that this TV movie is actually really impressive and that he does an amazing job in reprising the role again. Just give the movie a chance, especially those who have never read or seen A Raisin in the Sun.

Irishgirl: Sorry to break this to you, but all newborn babies look like Marc Antony.

Actually, I think he's really sexy. I'm not sure why.

And considering Rumer's mom has the "best body money can buy" I'm thinking there has been a lot of mother/daughter bonding at the cosmetic surgery drive-thru.

Yeah ... I wonder what Demi did that is so different from most other celebs who have plastic surgery. Did she just choose her plastic surgeons more carefully or what? Most celebs end up looking like some kind of sci-fi horror after that much revamping. Or after even a little "enhancement".
