  • Do Sheen and Heigl Deserve TV's Biggest Bucks? | Today's News: Our Take | 7/23/2008
    A new survey by Forbes Magazine names Charlie Sheen and Katherine Heigl as TV's best-paid actors. The Two and a Half Men cut-up earned $20 million in 2007, while Heigl pulled in $13 mil for her rotation on Grey's Anatomy. (It would seem the quality of her boss' paychecks was up to snuff, yes.)Of course, that's all parking valet tip money compared to what their counterparts in the movie biz are taking home. Will Smith was the big screen's biggest earner for the year, depositing $80 million into his bank account. Among the men, he was followed by Johnny Depp (a bargain at $72 mil) and Eddie Murphy (overpriced at $55 mil). Cameron Diaz was Hollywood's best-paid actress for 2007, earning $50 mil. Keira Knightley placed No. 2 with $32 mil, followed by Jennifer Aniston ($27 mil).In the category of "media personalities," Oprah of course dominated, raking in $275 million for the year. What's your take? Who delivers the best value for the greenbacks? — Matt Mitovich read more
  • Summer Movie Marketing Hotness! | Movie News | 6/26/2008
    As the summer movie season gets into full swing, movie buffs are being treated to a plethora of cool companion Web sites and interactive experiences for their favorite films. Let's take a look at some of the coolest viral campaigns, games and widgets. There are even sites devoted just to the movie marketing initiatives, like the awesome Chris Thilk's Movie Marketing Madness blog.And our favorite viral campaigns for upcoming summer movies are:Wanted (Opens June 27)After her sizzling hot turn as a housewife/assassin in Mr. and Mrs. Smith, it seems almost natural that Angelina Jolie would turn in her mommy card and play a different kind of assassin in Wanted. This is a visual feast apparently, with little dialogue to distract the men from drooling over Angie and the woman drooling over yummy James McAvoy (or vice versa for that matter). So, in our investigation of the movies marketing campaign, we came across this site all about the society of secret assassins in the movie. But, as my... read more
  • Will Smith and Letterman Steal a Smooch | Today's Top Videos | 6/25/2008
    It's hard to tell who was hitting on whom more in this clip, but clearly Will Smith and David Letterman were both a little smitten with each other when Smith came on the show to promote his new movie Hancock. During the interview, Letterman began to compliment Smith on how great he looked, but things took a bit of a turn when they both dove in for a kiss. How gosh-darn-cute are those two?!

  • MTV Movie Awards Heat Up the Gold Carpet | Party Central: The Latest Buzz from Your Favorite Stars | 6/2/2008
    Against the backdrop of Burbank's deep valley, the 2008 MTV Movie Awards attracted some of the biz's hottest stars, from both the establishment and the rising Hollywood set. Just beyond the gold carpet, a huge cloud of black smoke hovered from the fire at Universal Studios, but the incident didn't stop the crush of celebs, press and fans that filled the arrivals area of the Gibson Amphitheater.Making his way into the event, Best Week Ever's Doug Benson acknowledged the unseemly juxtaposition, joking, "I'm not on fire. It's not hot enough out here as it is. Let's get some soot, difficult breathing conditions. This is perfect!" Fitting the spirit of the awards, Benson sported a '420' tee under his jacket, an oddly prescient choice given Seth Rogen and James Franco's joint-smoking moment during the show. At any given time, the gold carpet was filled with stars, their entourages, Elle Woods wannabes and production assistants, scurrying back and forth. Among some of the passersby was... read more
  • Will Smith Denies Being a Scientologist | Today's News: Our Take | 3/18/2008
    Although a recent article in Radar magazine suggests that Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett have been recruited into the Church of Scientology, the I Am Legend star is adamantly denying the claim.Smith says that being a close pal of Scientology poster child Tom Cruise doesn't require him to subscribe to the same religious beliefs. "You don't have to be Jewish to be a friend of Steven Spielberg. You don't have to be a Muslim to be a friend of Muhammad Ali. And you don't have to be a Scientologist to be a friend of Tom Cruise," Smith told the New York Daily News. "I am a Christian. I am a student of all religions. And I respect all people and all paths."Model/designer Kimora Lee Simmons was also named as a recruit, but her rep has also denied any involvement with the church. Do you feel celebs are now trying to distance themselves from Scientology? — Adam Bryant read more
