5 Best AND 5 Worst Chick Flicks

5. BEST: 'When Harry Met Sally...' Not only is this one of Hollywood's best chick flicks, it's also one of the best comedies ever made. Director Rob Reiner teamed up with Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal to give hope to neurotic singles everywhere. By the end of this film, everybody wanted to have what she was having.

4. BEST: 'Steel Magnolias' One of the quintessential chick flicks, "Steel Magnolias" shows the powerful bond between a group of Southern women. Emotional and inspiring, this film is girl power at its best.

3. BEST: 'Gone With the Wind' Long before Brad Pitt gave Jennifer Aniston the kiss-off, Rhett Butler was not giving a hoot about where Scarlett O'Hara went or did after he walked out of her life. However, their love story is one of the most epic ever put on film.

2. BEST: 'Pretty Woman' If "Notting Hill" was Julia's "Romeo and Juliet," then "Pretty Woman" was her Cinderella story. What woman doesn't dream of being plucked from obscurity by a rich handsome man to be showered in jewels? Ok, so not every woman wants that. But Vivian Ward did, and audiences ate it up.

1. BEST: 'Ghost' If "Dirty Dancing" made Patrick Swayze a star, "Ghost" made him a legend. The actor's pottery-making scene with Demi Moore is one of the most iconic and mimicked in movie history. The ending doesn't leave a dry eye in the room.

5. WORST: 'Sweet November' How does something sweet leave such a bitter taste in your mouth? Well, Keanu Reeves acting is a good place to start. The lack of chemistry is a good second course. And a ridiculous plot is grand entree.

4. WORST: 'The Ugly Truth' Any number of Katherine Heigl rom-coms could have made this list, but "The Ugly Truth" made this list for being just plain ugly, unfunny and simply dumb in every sense of the word.

3. WORST: 'Kate & Leopold' A 19th century duke (Hugh Jackman) travels ahead in time to modern day New York City where he falls in love with business woman (Meg Ryan). Where's Billy Crystal and a diner when you need them?

2. WORST: 'Swept Away' With any luck, all existing copies of this Madonna disaster will be swept away. To have even attempted this film with the singer in the lead and then-husband Guy Ritchie directing can only be described as vanity film-making.

1. WORST: 'Sex and the City 2' Not just one of the worst chick flicks ever, "Sex and the City 2" (affectionately known as "the one where they went to the Middle East") is one of the worst films ever.

 

  

Mr and Mrs Clean

A new survey by the cleaning product firm Vileda reveals that 33% of couples, who divorce, split over dirty dishes and their partner not pulling their weight around the house. Other findings:

- 40% of divorces are caused by infidelity

- 35% of divorces are caused by couples drifting apart

- top argument starters: leaving things lying around followed by neglecting cleaning and not putting dirty clothes in the laundry basket.

 

 

 Seal claims Heidi Klum cheated on him. He says, "Look, this is what happens when people move on. …but I would have thought Heidi would have shown a little bit more class and would have at least waited until we separated before deciding to fornicate with the help. But I guess you all now have the answer you were looking for for the past seven months."

A source tells Hollywoodlife.com, “Heidi is focusing on family and moving forward with her life. It’s her time to take care of her family. She’s not interested in going out dating and clubbing. Martin (bodyguard) is in her inner circle of five people she trusts and loves and relies on. Martin knows her kids, he loves her kids, and the kids love him. It’s hard to find somebody to know your kids and who will care for your kids. It’s lonely to do it alone and have nobody who cares for your kids like you do. It’s awful that [Seal] is putting down the mother of his children in front of the children. It’s someone who’s a very angry person, not someone who has his kids’ interests in mind.”

A source tells InTouch Weekly, They've been seeing each other. They were recently spotted together on vacation in Sardinia, Italy." Another source confirms to In Touch, “She’s so happy and feels so safe around him.”

Klum's rep says, “It’s sad Seal has to resort to this and spread untruths about the mother of his children.”

Seal's rep says, "Seal would like to clarify that he was not implying his wife was cheating while they were together, but he was merely pointing out that their separation and divorce were not final and they are still legally married."

 

 

Kim Kardashian and Beyonce recently ignored one another at one of Jay-Z's concerts. A source tells Showbiz Spy, “Kim and Beyonce barely spoke to each other. They were on opposite sides of the stage. Beyonce didn’t even acknowledge [Kim] was there until the concert was almost over. Kim didn’t make any efforts to go speak to Beyonce either. Eventually, the women made small talk in the dressing room, but you could tell Kim was uncomfortable. She clung onto Kanye the entire time and didn’t say much. Kim was talking to Jonathan, and Kanye was talking to Jay-Z and Beyonce.''

 

 Kim Kardashian comic book goes on sale today. '15 Minutes: Kim Kardashian' chronicles her relationships, failed marriages and sex tape. It costs $3.99

 

Leonardo DiCaprio recently filmed an intense stripper scene for his new movie, The Wolf Of Wall Street. A source tells the NY Post, The girls were rubbing their breasts in Leo’s face. There were five or six of them, but he seemed very professional and looked great in an ’80s-style suit. They did five or six takes, more or less the same scene over and over, with girls dancing and rubbing on him. At one point in the scene, a few of the strippers were fully naked.''

 

Kristen Stewart's parents, Jules and John, are divorcing.

  

Charlie Sheen wanted to play Spider-Man. He says, "I had an office at Orion at the time, and I brought them Spider-Man. I said, 'Look, in a couple of years, I'll be too old to play Peter Parker.' And they said, 'Yeah, we're just thinking that cartoons are not the future, comic books are not the future.' And I said, 'But it's Spider-Man, I'm perfect.' And they were like, 'Nah, we're gonna wait.' … They didn't know sh*t."

 

Carrie Reichert allegedly kissed Prince Harry during his Vegas party. She tells the Mirror, "Harry was already undressed. It was just crazy. He looked actually delirious. There was a pool table and he was playing air guitar with pool sticks. He was screaming out, 'Somebody get me a glove! I'm going to do a Michael Jackson impression!'...He would just randomly walk up to you and hug you. He was just really friendly and there were just really ­random naked hugs. It was funny. We kissed, he was naked at the time, and pretty open. It was a drunken fumble. It wasn't romantic, just fun. He was a gentleman, but he was so wasted. The alcohol affected him. I was there for 15 to 20 minutes. He told me I was beautiful and gorgeous, which was sweet. Then we kind of nonchalantly returned to the party and kept drinking."

A source tells the Mirror, “Harry is furious about these claims and wants it to be known that they are false. He says this girl was not there on the night of the party. The Palace have been braced for claims like this. It’s no surprise that people will come forward and say they were in Harry’s suite, but he insists that this girl was not there that night”

 

Tom Cruise is ready to date. A source tells Showbiz Spy, “When a relationship is over, Tom just emotionally wipes the woman out. If it weren’t for Suri, the’d never think about Katie again. He’s already looking for the next Mrs. Cruise. He’s not ready to date in public, but he’s asked friends to set him up with girls. He has about three months before he has to promote his next movie. I’d be very surprised if he doesn’t have a new woman in his life by then

 

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are looking at buying a dog. A source tells NOW magazine, ''Mila and Ashton been touring shelters looking for an abandoned dog that needs a loving home. They have their hearts set on a big dog - either a golden retriever or a labrador.''

 

Pink wants more kids. She says, ''Willow is heavenly. She's changed the way I look at life. She's funny and fiery, with Carey's looks and my attitude. It's been amazing watching my man stumble awkwardly into love with his baby daughter. I'd love to have more kids. I'd like to have a big, dysfunctional basketball team full of them.''

 

Rihanna wants to star in the Scarface reboot. A source says, ''Rihanna loves 'Scarface'. Some of her music videos have been based on Michelle's character, Elvira. She knows all the words and even has her walk perfected.''

 

Justin Bieber has gotten a crown tattooed on his chest.

 

Chad Kroeger was “embarrassed” about telling his parents he was engaged to Avril Lavigne. He tells Showbiz Spy, “You never know what your parents are going to say when you tell them you’re getting married — especially when it’s with someone they haven’t met yet. My mom is a huge fan of Avril’s, so putting her on speakerphone and telling her the news was hilarious and equally embarrassing. I find [going back home] almost as terrifying as telling your parents you’re going to tie the knot. You just never know when someone is going to come out of the woodwork with a story that’s starts with, ‘Let me tell you about the time…' But I know she is dying to take me to La Pizzeria to try her favorite pizza in the world.”

  

Usher wanted to record with Amy Winehouse. He says, ''I’ve not really collaborated with any British women but the one person I wanted to is not here any more... Amy Winehouse. She and I met at Selfridges department store, believe it or not. It was very bizarre. We exchanged information, she invited me to a show and we were just in the process of talking about a collaboration but unfortunately, we didn’t get to do it.''

 

Lady GaGa recently got an anchor tattooed on her ribcage.

 

Taylor Swift wants to marry Conor Kennedy. A source tells the National Enquirer, “It’s World War III. Many of the Kennedys loathe Taylor and don’t want anything to do with her. They think she’s using her fame as a singer to worm her way into the fold… Taylor badly wants to marry Conor and have a Kennedy baby. She sees herself as the next Jackie O and aims to become as famous as she was, a style icon on a world stage.”

 

Eddie Cibrian wanted LeAnn Rimes to cancel her Twitter account. A source tells RADAR Online, “Eddie hates Twitter and doesn’t want LeAnn to be on there and writing so much. He would ask her to not meet people through Twitter and wanted her to get off of there. He thought she was out of control and not able to handle what she was doing.''

 

Sammy Hagar almost replaced Steven Tyler. Aerosmith star Brad Whitford tells VH1, "We had to talk about it... (We thought), 'Well, maybe we could put a different name on it and bring somebody else in. It's impossible to fill Steven's shoes, that's not gonna happen. We spoke to a couple of people that were semi-interested. We spoke to Sammy, and he was really excited about it. I love Sammy, and I was like, 'Oh man, this would be so cool!' (But) it all started to come back together on its own (with Tyler), like it was going to and should have."

  

Elton John and Madonna recently ran into one another at a Nice, France cafe. A source tells Perez Hilton, “Elton goes to the Petite Maison for dinner fairly regularly as it’s near his villa in Mont Boron. But Madonna was also there for a bite before her show, which was down the road and didn’t start until around 10.30pm. Just as he was leaving, he went over to talk to Madonna and they were laughing and smiling. They even hugged each other.”

 

 

 

 

THE GREEN MILE’S MICHAEL CLARKE DUNCAN DIES

Actor Michael Clarke Duncan passed away Monday, two months after suffering a heart attack. The actor’s fiancée, former Apprentice contestant Omarosa Manigault,  announced that the 54-year-old died in a Los Angeles hospital where he was being treated since July 13th.  Duncan is probably best known for starring alongside Tom Hanks in the 1999 flick The Green Mile, which was based on the Stephen King novel of the same name. He received a Best Supporting Actor Oscar nomination for playing a death row inmate with powerful abilities. His other work includes: Armageddon, Planet of the Apes and Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. Most recently, he appeared on the now cancelled Fox series The Finder.

 

EMAILS SHOW PROMOTER THOUGHT JACKSON WASN’T FIT FOR CONCERTS!

The Los Angeles Times published leaked emails over the weekend that showed promoters of Michael Jackson’s 2009 comeback tour were not confident he’d be able to perform. The paper got a hold of 250 pages of messages between execs at AEG (which was financing the This is It shows) and production crew members, which are a key part of two lawsuits going to trial next year. One lawsuit involves insurance company Lloyds of London, who wants to nullify the $17.5 million policy AEG took out on Jackson, while the other  is the wrongful death suit the Jackson family has filed against AEG. While AEG has always maintained Jackson was in great shape for the concerts, the emails clearly show they were alarmed about the singer’s mental state.  In fact, at one point director Kenny Ortega told AEG exec Randy Phillips that Jackson needed a psychiatric intervention.  “There are strong signs of paranoia, anxiety and obsessive-like behavior. I think the very best thing we can do is get a top psychiatrist in to evaluate him ASAP,” said Ortega. In another email, Phillips describes a subsequent visit to Jackson’s hotel room writing to his boss TimLeiweke, “MJ is locked in his room drunk and despondent…He is an emotionally paralyzed mess riddled with self-loathing and doubt now that it is show time.”  The emails also mentioned Dr. Conrad Murray, who is now in jail for Jackson’s death. They state that Murray, who was deeply in debt and needed his $150,000 a month salary, believed Jackson was fit for the shows. Murray was described as, “... extremely successful (we check everyone out) and does not need this gig so he [is] totally unbiased and ethical.”

DIRECTOR CONFIRMS ACTRESS WAS AUDITED TO BE CRUISE’S GIRLFRIEND!

 An excerpt from an October Vanity Fair cover story claims that in 2004, high ranking Scientology officials were given the task of finding Tom Cruise a new partner, and they audited Iranian born actress Nazanin Boniadi for the job. The couple then dated from November, 2004 to January 2005. While reps for Scientology deny the story is true, Oscar-winning director Paul Haggis, a former Scientologist who very publically split with the church, told Showbiz 411 that the auditing did indeed take place, for the entire month of October 2004. Boniadi was “told to lose her braces, her red highlights and her boyfriend,” before she met Cruise the following month.  They allegedly fell in love, but after a series of incidents, Boniadi was forced to leave Cruise’s home, where she was living, and move into Scientology’s Celebrity Centre. "Naz was embarrassed by her unwitting involvement in this incident and never wanted it to come out, so I kept silent,” said Haggis. “However I was deeply disturbed by how the highest ranking members of a church could so easily justify using one of their members; how they so callously punished her and then so effectively silenced her when it was done." Haggis added that Naz “quietly resigned from the church a couple of years ago after trying to handle this injustice internally to no avail.”

Q-Haggis directed what 2004 Oscar winning film, which told several interwoven stories set in Los Angeles? Crash

Q-Seal’s well-known song “Kiss From A Rose” appeared on the soundtrack to what 1995 film? Batman Forever

RANDY JACKSON OUT AT IDOL?!

Looks like the last original American Idol judge is on his way out.  After months of speculation, sources connected to the Fox show tell TMZ Randy Jackson will indeed be leaving the judges’ table. Jackson won’t be gone entirely – he’s expected to remain with Idol as a mentor. As for the new judges, it sure sounds like Nicki Minaj will be joining Mariah Carey. Sources say Nicki’s deal is 99% done. According to the New York Post, the current snag has to do with Nicki’s affiliation with Pepsi. The cola company currently sponsors her tour, but Idol is sponsored by rival Coke. The paper also claims producers are happy about the rumors Mariah is upset over Nicki’s hiring. Insiders say they “want to see that drama between Nicki and Mariah Carey. It’ll make for good TV.” Also expected on the judging panel is country star Keith Urban. TMZ reports that a deal has not been signed with Nicole Kidman's husband yet, but it is close.

Q-In addition to his work on Idol, Jackson produced what reality competition that aired on MTV? America’s Best Dance Crew

COAST GUARD RESCUES LOST CROWE!

 Russell Crowe needed a little help from the U.S. Coast Guard this weekend. The actor, who next stars in the big screen adaptation of the Broadway musical Les Miserables, was kayaking with his friend and personal trainer Chris Feather in Huntington Bay, Long Island, when it started getting dark. The pair was nearly 10 miles from shore and couldn’t find their way back. That’s when they noticed the U.S. Coast Guard patrolling the area, and Crowe called out for help. They paddled over to the boat, and the Coast Guard brought the men and their kayaks on board. "He just needed a little bit of help. He just got a little lost," U.S. Coast Guard Petty Officer 2nd Class Robert Swieciki said. "It wasn't really a rescue, really, more of just giving someone a lift." Crowe later took to Twitter to deny be was lost, writing “we knew exactly where we were.” He did add a big thanks to “the boys from the U.S. Coast Guard for guiding the way.”

 

Q-Russell Crowe played a captain of a ship in what 2003 film? Master & Commander: The Far Side of the World

 

EVELYN LOZADA SAYS SHE’S AFRAID OF ESTRANGED HUSBAND!

 In her first interview since leaving husband Chad Johnson (Ochocinco), Evelyn Lozada told Nightline she felt she had protect herself from her hubby of less than a month.  “It’s the hardest thing in the world to walk away from someone that you really love,” she said. “But you have to walk away because I have to protect myself.” Johnson was arrested on August 11th for allegedly headbutting Evelyn after an argument. She admitted to Nightline that she is “afraid” of Chad, but she described his actions as “a bad choice,” and says she “feels bad for him.” “He’s a good guy that made a bad choice. He loves football and he’s very driven and a great dad,” she explains. “He made a bad choice that destroyed his life, and I hate that I’m connected to that.” Evelyn added that she “believes” Chad loves her, but thinks “he needs to get help.”

 

ELISHA CUTHBERT ENGAGED!

 Happy Endings star Elisha Cuthbert announced on Twitter Sunday that she has gotten engaged to Toronto Maple Leafs captain Dion Phaneuf. “Happily, happily, happily, happily engaged!" the 29-year-old wrote. "This has been the most amazing weekend ever."  The couple has been dating since May, 2008.  Seems that Cuthbert has a thing for hockey players. She previously dated NHL star Sean Avery and Toronto Maple Leafs alternate captain Mike Komisarek.

 

RIMES WORRIED HUBBY WAS CHEATING!

LeAnn Rimes went to rehab last week to deal with emotional issues, and it seems like she may be emotional over the state of her marriage. Sources tell Radaronline that before she checked into treatment, LeAnn was worried hubby Eddie Cibrian may have been having an extramarital affair. An insider claims LeAnn had been telling friends she grew concerned after Eddie went out several times without her.  “LeAnn called a friend of hers a few weeks ago sobbing hysterically about Eddie going out,” the insider told Radaronline.  “She was home for the weekend and he didn’t stay in with her and she was crying saying that she was so worried about what he was doing when he wasn’t with her.” LeAnn may have a good reason to be concerned, considering he did cheat on his first wife Brandi Glanville.  Of course, he cheated on Brandi with LeAnn.

Q-LeAnn and Eddie met and started their affair while filming the movie Northern Lights. What network did the TV movie air on? Lifetime

 

BRANDI SUPPORTS LeANN!

Meanwhile, despite the fact that LeAnn broke up her marriage, Brandi Glanville is offering up her support to the country star. "I totally support LeAnn's decision to enter rehab -- my top priority is my children, and at the end of the day we are a family," Glanville told Us Weekly. "LeAnn is their stepmom, and they love her. I am wishing her all the best and I hope she will find what she is looking for while in rehab."

SHARAPOVA NO LONGER ENGAGED!

Maria Sharapova is single again. The tennis star announced during a press conference at the U.S. Open last week that she is no longer engaged to former Los Angeles Laker star Sasha Vujacic. "It's been since the end of spring actually," Sharapova told reporters. She blamed the split on their busy careers. Vujacic left the NBA last season to play professionally in Turkey.  “It was a really nice period of time for both of us, but our career schedules just made it extremely difficult to see each other with the traveling, and especially his career move to Turkey," she said.

STARS REACT TO EASTWOOD’S RNC SPEECH!

Clint Eastwood’swacky speech to an empty chair at the Republican National Convention Thursday certainly had people talking, and many celebrities did their talking on Twitter.  "Still can't tell if Clint was hallucinating or President is really invisible now,” wrote former Scrubs star Zach Braff, while The Voice’sAdam Levine wrote, "Clint Eastwood has gone f--kin nutterbutters yo." Shaun of the Dead star Simon Pegg wrote, “Maybe Clint is a sleeper agent for the Democrats sent in under deep cover to make the Republicans look stupid. No wait, that's Romney." Added SNL’sSeth Myers, "When Clint woke up this morning he saw that Obama was gone from the chair...Or was he still there!?!?!" Finally, movie reviewer Roger Ebert was saddened by Clint’s contribution to the RNC. He wrote, "Clint, my hero, is coming across as sad and pathetic. He didn't need to do this to himself. It's unworthy of him.” [See Spotlight On for more.]

Q-Clint’s catchphrase “Go Ahead...Make My Day” came from a series of movies featuring what famous Clint character? Dirty Harry

KIM ZOLCIAK’S MOTHER SUES TO SEE HER GRANDKIDS!

Real Housewives of Atlanta’sKim Zolciak is being taken to court by her own mother. TMZ reports that Karen Zolciak has filed a Petition for Visitation in GA Superior Court, demanding the right to see her four grandchildren.  Karen claims she was “portrayed as a bad person” on Kim’s reality show Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding, which strained their relationship.  She argues that not seeing her grandkids, the youngest of which was born two weeks ago,  will cause them “emotional and physical harm,” adding that the older girls “live such a crazy, abnormal life being on TV…they need a normal haven to relax.”

DRIVERS SUE VALDERRAMA FOR BACK PAY!

Former That 70s Show star Wilmer Valderrama is being sued by two drivers who worked on his upcoming breakdance webseries King of the Floor. Thomas McNeal and James Martell claim they were told they’d get paid $10 bucks an hour for the two-day gig, but never got the cash. They are suing Wilmer for violating labor laws, and are asking for $89,515.

STODDEN GETS TURNED DOWN BY PLAYBOY!

 The porn industry may be clamoring to get 18-year-old CourtneyStodden in front of the camera, but Playboy does not feel the same way. TMZ reported last week that just after she turned 18 Courtney had received at least four offers for porn roles, and while initially she claimed to be interested, she later tweeted, “no to porn…yes to Playboy.” Well, she apparently got a big fat no from the magazine.  “Courtney doesn't meet the standards of a Playboy model,” a source at the magazine told TMZ. “[Playboy] would never take her. I don't think anybody really wants to see that anyway.”

 

 

OOGIELOVES BOMBS BIG TIME!

 The kids’ movie The Oogieloves in the BIG Balloon Adventure, which opened Wednesday, now has the distinction of holding the record for the worst opening weekend of all time for a flick playing in over 2000 theaters. The film was released in 2,160 theaters and made just $448,131 dollars, which means it earned only $207 per theater for the three day weekend.  The film surpasses the record set by 2008’s animated flick Delgo, which earned only $511,920 in its opening weekend. It too came out in 2,160 theaters.

TV TIDBITS!

● Jennie Garth and Luke Perry may not be dating as some tabloids have speculated, but they are working together. According to Garth’s rep, the former Beverly Hills 90210 costars are developing a multi-camera sitcom together. No word on what the series will be about.

● Robin Williams could be coming back to TV. The Oscar winner, who became a household name in the late 70s/early 80s in ABC’s Mork & Mindy, is attached to star in a new half-hour comedy from The Practice’sDavid E. Kelley, set in the world of advertising. CBS is said to be interested in the project.
