Who: The prolific movie producer is responsible for such hits as The First Wives Club, The Truman Show, School of Rock, The Hours, No Country for Old Men, and The Social Network. He may also be the most monstrous boss in the city.
Clifford "T.I." Harris may be going to jail after he was caught with drugs. Hopefully the judge will take into consideration the fact that Tip just talked some guy down from the roof of a building in Atlanta.
AOL might buy Yahoo with private equity investors, sell off large parts of the company, and run the rest as a rival to Google in online advertising, The Wall Street Journal reported. It would be a deal of unprecedented irrelevance.

An eight-year-old Florida boy donated his turtle, Tomalina, to an aquarium. While he was there, an alligator ate it. The boy screamed "Oh no alligator, let it go," while it crunched on the shell. He'll never donate to charity again.
Blogger and face scribbler Perez Hilton is taking to Ellen DeGeneres, YouTube, and Out magazine today to say that he's not going to bully celebrities on his website from now on. Is he serious or is this a PR stunt?
David Arquette is "begging" Courteney Cox to get back together with him. He's so torn up, he called his good friend Howard Stern to talk about it—and dished about their sex lives, "methodical" lovemaking, and extramarital relationships.
Katherine Heigl was having a hot tub party with her husband, and they made so much noise, her neighbor called the cops. Is this lady annoying, or what? So! Very! Annoying! Sorry Kathy, there is no reversing this "image problem."
A foundation that "promotes progressive causes" and owns $52,000 in News Corp stock has written the company to object to its donations to Republican political groups. Good of them to give old Rupert Murdoch something to laugh about. [NYT]

Today we looked at some encouraging polling numbers about Sarah Palin. She would not beat Obama in an election right now! But, of course, we should still fret and worry about 2012, right? Wrong, says one optimistic commenter.
Ashton Kutcher on wife Demi: "A lot of times my wife and I sit across from each other and tweet… it's the same reason you send roses to a woman at work. Sometimes people like to be adored in public."

Barack Obama is not a popular president! These things happen. On the other hand, there's this: He's still beating Sarah Palin 51% to 35% in a hypothetical 2012 match-up. Why not just run Todd Palin instead? He's hilarious on email.
The wife of imprisoned Chinese Nobel Peace Laureate Liu Xiaobo says the prison has started serving him individually prepared meals, rather than the notoriously gross general population food. How nice of them! Now maybe they could just set him free?
