Tom Cruise has a nice house

Tom Cruise’s 10,000+ square foot mansion in Beverly Hills. The actor purchased the home in April of last year for $30.5 million.

NOTE: “. . . is better than you” is a Friday feature showcasing multi-million dollar celebrity homes in the hopes of generating feelings of jealousy, hatred, and animosity towards said celebrity. When you get down to the entertainment-dollar-spending core of it, you helped buy that home. Sucker!

“Entertainment Tonight” aired a story about the birth of Angelina Jolie’s twins despite being repeatedly told beforehand that the report was based on information from someone impersonating Jolie’s assistant, according to documents and two people with knowledge of the exchange.

The celebrity newsmagazine denied Wednesday that it knew about an impostor before the broadcast. The identity of the impostor remained unknown.

On Friday morning, the show posted a story on its Web site and sent an e-mail alert to media outlets saying it had confirmed the birth of Jolie’s twins. The Associated Press picked up the report.

“Entertainment Tonight” did not name its source at the time. It later revealed that the report was based on e-mails from someone it thought was Jolie assistant Holly Goline.

Shortly after the story was posted but several hours before the broadcast aired, Goline told “Entertainment Tonight” that she was not the person with whom they had been corresponding, a person with direct knowledge of the conversation told The Associated Press. That account was confirmed by another person close to Jolie.

“‘Entertainment Tonight‘ was told before the broadcast that their information came from an impostor,” said the second person. Both people spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly.

The people said there were several conversations Friday, by e-mail, text message and telephone, between Goline and “Entertainment Tonight.” Meanwhile, the story was quickly challenged by several other celebrity news outlets.

The TV show stood by its story Friday night, with host Mary Hart saying on the air, “Just this morning, a source who says she was inside the delivery room tells us yes, the babies were born and yes, mother and babies are fine.”

Later that night, the manager of Jolie’s partner, Brad Pitt, told AP that the babies had not been born.

The show said in a statement Wednesday that it first learned of an impostor from a letter from Jolie’s attorney Monday — three days after the broadcast.

“‘Entertainment Tonight’ takes this very seriously and is, of course, concerned that the show may have been victimized by someone allegedly posing as a member of Ms. Jolie’s team,” the statement said. “We are actively investigating the matter and are reaching out to law enforcement agencies.”

The show has not mentioned the story on the air since the initial report, and the story has been deleted from its Web site.

The 27-year-old program is the top-rated entertainment newsmagazine on television, with an average nightly audience of 6.6 million viewers, more than double any competitors. The twins, who Jolie says are due in August, are one of the biggest stories of the year in celebrity journalism, with their first photographs expected to fetch at least $10 million. (The first pictures of Shiloh Jolie-Pitt reportedly fetched a $4 million donation to charity from People magazine.)

The mystery of who was sending the e-mail fit perfectly into the world of celebrity gossip, in which rumor and thirdhand sources coalesce into “facts” at the speed of the Internet. Even before the “Entertainment Tonight” report, there were international rumors of the twins’ birth, possibly started by an OK! magazine story that did not report the babies were born, but speculated on possible names.

According to an “ET” executive, the report of the twins’ birth began with Sharlette Hambrick, an “ET” producer. Hambrick told the show that she had obtained a BlackBerry e-mail address for Goline from a contact at CNN, according to the executive, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information.

According to e-mails provided to AP by the show, Hambrick sent a message to the BlackBerry address asking for confirmation of “reports swirling” that Jolie had given birth.

The reply came back: “Yes she did. I was actually in the room with her. They are doing fine and so is mom.”

Goline has never had a BlackBerry e-mail account, one of the people with knowledge of the exchange said. Hambrick referred a call from The Associated Press to the show’s public relations representative.

Shortly after “Entertainment Tonight” posted the story, Hambrick called the real Goline seeking more details, and Goline told her verbally and through text messages that Hambrick had been dealing with an impostor, the people with knowledge of the exchange said.

E-mails obtained by AP show that Hambrick sent a message to Goline’s real e-mail address showing the exchange with the impostor, asking “Are you saying this is now not your e-mail address? That you did not send me these e-mails?”

Goline responded: “This is not my e-mail.”

Is there anything sexier than food?

It’s probably no surprise that for Kim Cattrall it’s the people who make it.

Known for her vixen character, Samantha, in “Sex and the City,” Cattrall put sex talk on the menu while hosting Sunday’s James Beard Foundation awards, often called the “Oscars” of the food world.

Cattrall opened the ceremony talking about her own love of cooking, then asked co-host and celebrity chef Bobby Flay what has more sex appeal than food. A breath later, she offered her own answer.

“Maybe what’s sexier is the chefs who are always cooking up something new and exciting,” she cooed.

Cattrall then quickly challenged Flay to a “throwdown” in the kitchen, to which Flay said: “Don’t worry. I’ll be gentle.”

“Sex and the City” grossed $21.3 million this weekend, earning $99.3 million total after only 10 days in theaters. The movie is based on the HBO television series.

Traci Bingham was at Melanie Segal’s Hollywood Platinum Lounge Los Angeles. She was beautiful in her spaghetti top and jeans. Traci’s last famous celebrity appearance was on The Surreal Life: Fame Games” show. The contestants started in teams and as the weeks wore down, they were eliminated and played as individuals. Traci managed to endure and outsmart all her competitors and took home the prize of $100,000. Now, she can pick and choose her assignments, for a short while at least, until her money runs out.

Lindsay Lohan tried to revive her career as an attention hungry whore in Cannes over the weekend by teasing us with her fire crotch, sporting an engagement ring at the Dolce & Gabbana party, and making sure the paparazzi captured her parading around in a bikini.

It’s like September 2006 all over again!

Except now no one cares anymore. Upskirt shots are about as outdated as single-digit pregnancies. If Lindsay really wants the world talking about her she’s going to have to raise the bar.

I say it’s time for a new celebrity sex tape to hit the Net. This time with some hot scissoring action between Linds and Sam. Now that’d be a Lindsay Lohan movie actually worth watching!

Upskirt and more bikini photos after the jump!

Victoria Beckham celebrated her 34th birthday yesterday at the hip mexican restaurant, Pink Taco, at Westfield mall in Century City. Her husband, David was there to enjoy the small party with their three sons, Brooklyn, 9, Romeo, 5, and Cruz, 3.

Little Cruz is the superstar in training! Besides from his break dancing skills, we now can see how he has learned to emulate an interesting gesture his famous papa.

Here is Cruz’s hand gesture with a photo of his father in a similar pose at Euro 2000, the European Football Championships. This sure is a classic example of like father, like son!

When it comes to style and fashion, no one can top our beloved celebs! Always red carpet ready and persistently polished, these are the top five styles and the stars that wear them so well.

Coming in at #5 we have Old Hollywood Glamor as seen on Katherine Heigl. Katherine does a stylish new twist on the old Hollywood feel when she graced the red carpet at the Academy Awards. Glowing with perfection, this hair style speaks volumes on class and sophistication.

Next we have #4 side swept hair sizzles as seen on What Happens in Vegas star Cameron Diaz. A fashion staple that is sexy, fun and cool.

Coming in at #3 Long, luscious locks are in as seen on Fergie recently. The key to these tussled tendrils is to keep it messy but still polished and sheik.

Rounding out the top 2 is chopped and cropped. This is a must have that Posh sports nowadays. Blunt angles and sharp points combine with sleek and straight lines to accent Victoria’s sexy neckline.

The number one spot holds a special place in my heart as it is none other then the handsome and sophisticated salt and pepper look. Made famous by George Clooney. Now he knows how to age in style! This is hard proof that going grey can be sexy! He can still make them swoon and doesn’t compromise his integrity. Gorgeous George knows how to work it.

There it is folks! Whether it be long and luxurious or short and sassy, these stars prove they have the hair know how and will always be leading the herd when it comes to looking good!

It’s almost here! Fans have patiently waited four years for the arrival of the Sex and the City movie, and on May 30th we’ll find out what Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte, and Samantha have been up to. Sex and the City turned Sarah Jessica Parker and her gal pals into modern fashion icons, so what better way to help get you psyched for the movie than taking a look at our favorite looks of the fab four!

Miranda: the intelligent, humorous, and sarcastic lawyer wasn’t much of a fashionista, but always looked beautiful and well put together.

Charlotte: straight out of a 1950’s TV show, cute as a button, and always looked every bit of the perfect lady.

Samantha: the sex kitten, or should I say cougar? Hey, who else can pull off a pink suit?! All I can say is if I look like her when I’m her age, I’ll be a happy camper!

Carrie: the woman with the closet that everyone wants to raid. Carrie wore the outfits that we were all afraid to, and looked fabulous everytime!

So ladies break out those Manolos and don’t forget the Cosmos! Sex and the City hits theaters May 30th!

If you haven’t gotten sick of all the spoof movies that have been in theaters these past years then you will be happy to hear this.

But if you are sick of them… at least this one has Kim Kardashian in it!
In fact, joining Kim will also be Carmen Electra and Vanessa Minnillo!

Now I know you wanna go see this movie.

Some bloggers are calling it Goodie Two Shoes, but imdb.com lists it as Disaster Movie. And it is bound to be just as funny as everything else writer/director’s Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer have done up to this point. You might know them from movies like Meet the Spartans or Epic Movie.

This time around the spoofs will be on movies like Superbad, Will Smith’s new movie, Hancock, the Sex and the City movie, and Mike Myers’s upcoming The Love Guru. Wow, they sure are planning ahead with these jokes– these movies aren’t even out yet!

And for all you SATC fans, they are looking for a man to play Carrie. I wonder how that will go…

Calling all look-a-likes! If spoofing movies isn’t enough for you, Disaster Movie is also going to be

mocking celebrities. The writers are said to currently be on the lookout for a Jessica Simpson, a Justin T

imberlake, a Prince, a Flava Flav, a Dr Phil, an Angelina Jolie, a Paris Hilton, and a Michael Jackson.

Are you intrigued yet? Well you have until August 29, 2009 to get pumped up about it!
