OlderGeorge Clooney Rags on Brad Pitt
George Clooney playfully ragged on good friend Brad Pitt on last night’s The Late Show with David Letterman. George knocked Brad for also winning the title of “People’s Sexiest Man” twice. George joked of Brad: “He was a little upset. It sort of knocked his thing down a notch.”
Brad congratulated George’s win by taking out full-page ads in Variety and The Hollywood Reporter, which read:
Dear George,
Congratulations on being People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive.
[insert cornball picture of George from 1985]
Your Friend,
“The Reverend Ted”
Yes, it’s in reference to that Ted. The Ted Haggard who was guilty of “sexually immoral conduct” and ex-pastor of mega-church New Life Church.
George retaliated on Letterman by showing old school pictures of Brad wearing tapered pants and a beret. Above is George imitating one of Brad’s cheesy poses.
George also joked of Matt Damon: “We felt bad for Matt Damon because he really wanted it. He campaigned hard for it but we think he just came up short.”

JA command 8 million? no wonder she’s not getting any movie offer anymore .
****
I think that is based on what she got for her past movies like TBU. What producers would pay now is still up in the air since she is only doing yoga videos. I think if she is playing a girlfriend of a comic she will get 8 million but for anything else I don’t think it will be that high.

These are figures for 2006 ONLY. Aniston shouldn’t even be on the list as she hasn’t worked in over a year

Thanks Kearnie :)
George and Jon were cute on TDS just now :)
Ooh, the vogue looks fantastic!
on stars’ salaries, Entertainment Weekly dated 12 May 2006 had an article on “Face Value”"Are they worth it?”, discussing salary versus movie bankability. Brad Pitt ($20M) is listed under “Worth Every Penny” and Angelina Jolie ($12M) is under “Decent Bets”. Other major stars are also listed.
Glen Beck gave an interview with a newly elected senator or congressman a week or so ago. He told the man he doesn’t trust him and others as well because he is a muslim. That the guy is a terroist. It was out of this world nuts. So clearly this man is not the best judge of character. He’s a loud mouth jerk that gets off on saying the wrong things.
OFF TOPIC….
Ok, I get #1 through #9, but I’m havng SERIOUS issues with #10

Kidman Tops Highest-Paid Actress List

LOS ANGELES (AP) - Nicole Kidman is the queen of Hollywood when it comes to money. The Oscar winner, who earns as much as $17 million per movie, tops the fifth annual list of highest-paid actresses released Wednesday by The Hollywood Reporter.
Kidman, 39, ranked second on last year’s list behind four-time top-earner Julia Roberts, who didn’t make the list this year. She spent time with her 2-year-old twins.
In second place, with $15 million per movie, was Reese Witherspoon, 30, who won the best-actress Oscar this year for her performance in “Walk the Line.”
Renee Zellweger, Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz placed third, fourth and fifth, respectively. They also get $15 million for each film.
Rounding out the top 10 are Halle Berry ($14 million), Charlize Theron ($10 million), Angelina Jolie ($10 million), Kirsten Dunst ($8 million to $10 million) and Jennifer Aniston ($8 million).
The list will appear in the Women in Entertainment Power 100 issue to be published by The Hollywood Reporter on Dec. 5.

Can’t wait to get hold of the Vogue Magazine too. Love her.
Well it should be a list about how much they earn not who is powerful. Because the numbers don’t lie no one is paying to see Jennifer Aniston in anything. TBU was a VV film and was his success. She was just brought along for the ride. As would anyone. People love VV and think he is funny and can’t miss. So they really could have put anyone in that and still made a hit film. At this point with no films coming out Jenn’s people are waiting for the demand to see her in a film to increase. It was too many films too soon last yr for her. I doubt she is bankable.
I love George Clooney and I love his friendship with Brad Pitt.
So what he was campaigning for an Oscar. Being a celeb is part of his job and he does it well. I don’t blame him. He’s interesting and he’s just taking the piss.
So what he’s a “famewhore” at they all really. It’s part of their job on some level and I don’t think he’s going overboard.
For me, if I become all that critical of a person liking their celebrity status then I become a hypocrite. Look at me watching them do their job and then criticizing them for entertaining me.
If I didn’t like celebrities I wouldn’t be on a celeb blog that’s for sure. I wouldn’t crtiticize Brad or Angie for doing the same, I liked both way before they got into philanthropy. I liked them simply because I found them interesting and I enjoyed their work. I like George for the same reasons.

I have also seen the pictures of “fate” at the row of seats. Can’t believe, Brad & Angie did not meet right after Brad was done with Gwen. Did you know Brad met Jen on a blind date? Their managers arranged the dinner date.
__________________________________________________________________
Sorry LSAM! I knew I forgot to answer someone…had to go back and check. Like Leetle UN I’m new at posting, please do forgive me.
I think it would have been too early for Brad & Angie to have connected right after Gwenyth. Angie was still in her wild child period, and I think Brad would be the last person she would be interested in. She needed to go through all those milestones & life lessons to get to the good place where she is now. Like I said - the right place & right time. Anyway, we wouldn’t want her to be Brad’s rebound, do we? :) (Yes, I being mean.)
Observer2: You must’ve picked my brain, took the words right out of my mouth, great minds think alike, simpatico, etc., etc. That post said it all. Brad & Angie faced this whole debacle with grace & dignity. No need to add anything more.
Indie: Your post regarding mini-van marjority is both levelheaded & clear-sighted. I also believe that the crisis point for B&A is over and the media is finally taking note. My sister, friends (except for one, but that was because of her BBT period), & co-workers only have positive things to say about Angie through this whole drama. Brad’s sincerity & commitment to his humanitarian efforts, his renewed outlook on life (he had a tone of cynicism in his past interviews, yes?) & devotion to his family has finally made the media & doubters see the light. The Jolie-Pitts are fine. They have a lot of silent supporters behind them.
Missouri Fan: A short post tonight only! I’m glad I can make you smile.
I’ll race all of you to the newstands to grab that issue of Vogue. LOL
Kidman Tops Highest-Paid Actress List

_______________________________
There is something weird in this list, this looks like the same list last year, except they took Julia Roberts as in the number 1 position. If they based the list on the movies they made in 2005, then its probably accurate, since Julia did not make any film in 2005. Aniston I think was only paid US$ 8m in TBU, while she was paid less for The Rumor has It, Derailed and Friends with Money, i read somewhre just US$ 2.5 m per film.
If Angie got US$ 10 per film, then its quite good, since she was only supporting in the two films she made in 2005, TGS and Beauowolf. Whereas Nicole and others were all the main stars of their films.
Hello Artemis….Saw your post before & as of this week we got the Vancouver weather. Mild & lots of fog/mist. How’s your Toronto weather treating you lately? I have seen Babel already..Did you watch it yet? I hope “The Mighty Heart” will be shown next year & on time when the Toronto Film Festival arrives around September. That would be great to see & I am sure Brad will be on hand too since he produces the movie. I am keeping my fingers crossed that day will happen.
