A funny thing happened when the world didn’t end on May 21.

Johnny Depp became the new king of the overseas box-office, but settled for less here in the land of the free, and the…

We do wish the title was kind of true, so at least writing this would be slightly more entertaining. But a new Saturday Night Live Digital Short starring these three isn’t boring,…

Ahh, Sookie Sookie, now!

Anna Paquin is dishing to Health magazine about how she keeps those Sookie Stackhouse curves and her barf-inducing romance with costar and hubby Stephen…

Paris never fails to bring that rosy colored hue in one’s life …and loves. And true enough for Rachel McAdams and Michael Sheen, “ Midnight in Paris” brought them together in both in reel and real time.

This Woody Allen film co-stars Rachel McAdams opposite Owen Wilson and Michael Sheen. Following months of guessing who’s hooked up with who … McAdams and Sheen have finally confirmed their relationship.  The couple’s endless midnight walks, talks , laughs  and shared meals while filming in Paris, blossomed into a real friendship where they both enjoyed getting to know each other in the streets of Notre Dame.

Admitting that they have been a couple for a while now, Sheen speaks of Rachel as a fantastic actress. The 42 yr old British actor seems to be smitten by McAdams, as he describes her to be a genuine,  stunningly beautiful and talented lady.  They were seen holding hands in Toronto last November during the Toronto International Film Festival, triggering rumors that they were both dating.

Rachel McAdams  has been known to have dated her  on screen love ,Ryan Gosling in the much noted tear jerker film “The Notebook”, and suave hunkie Josh Lucas. However, the 34 yr old actress says she has been disillusioned with love clearly based on her parent’s happy marriage.

Michael Sheen on the other hand, seems to have been on a type cast of vampire films. Playing the role of Aro, the leader of the Volturi. He also starred with ex girlfriend  Kate Beckinsale in “Underworld”, whom he has an 11 year old daughter with.

The Cannes International Film Festival had most of its notorious critics wrapped in laughter and applause over “Midnight  in Paris” which also stars Adrien Brody and Marion Cotillard. Currently, Michael Sheen and Rachel McAdams are filming in Louisiana for their next project with director Terrence Malick.

Olivia Wilde and Justin Timberlake seem to be becoming best friends.

The Alpha Dog and In Time co-stars were spotted last month hanging out at the Roxbury in L.A., and earlier this month they spent time together at Timberlake’s New York restaurant Southern Hospitality.

Now Wilde took to Twitter today to say she thought Timberlake’s turn on “Saturday Night Live” was “brilliant,” and that after the show “I met Gaga.”

What do you think about these two pals?

Taylor Swift’s final dress rehearsal for her upcoming “Speak Now” tour drew more than 13,700 fans and raised $750,000-plus for victims of the tornadoes that ravaged the southeastern United States last month.

All proceeds from Taylor’s “Speak Now… Help Now” performance last night at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville went directly to disaster relief.

“I’ve never opened a rehearsal to the public before, but I felt that inviting my fans to the last rehearsal for the Speak Now Tour would be a great way to raise money,” explained Swift.

Click here for more footage of Taylor talking about opening the rehearsal to the public, as well as video of her performing.

The North American leg of Swift’s “Speak Now” tour kicks off on May 27 in Omaha.

Should Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver go through with a divorce, it could cost the former governor BIG bucks.

Just a week ago, it was revealed that Schwarzenegger secretly fathered an illegitimate son more than a decade ago with a member of his household staff named Mildred Baena.

Since then, Shriver has reportedly retained a divorce attorney, and according to estimates, the couple is worth up to a possible $400 million.

While it’s believed that Schwarzenegger and Shriver have a prenup, after 25 years of marriage and revelations of the action star’s out of wedlock action, it’s not inconceivable the agreement can get thrown out.

If that happened, the couple — under California law — would split their marital assets 50-50.

Interestingly, right after Schwarzenegger left office, he told the Austrian newspaper Krone that if one calculated all the income from the movies roles he could have taken during the years he served as governor, plus his out-of-pocket expenses, “in all it is probably more than $200 million” he personally lost running the state of California.

In that same interview, Schwarzenegger possibly hinted at his problems at home. He said that while it was worth losing all that movie money to be governor, “What was much worse was the damage my time as governor did to the family. There is a lot there that needs to be repaired.”

Hmm…

What do you think of Shriver potentially walking away with nearly $200 million if the couple divorces?

Russell Brand got booted from Japan shortly before his wife Katy Perry performs a number of concerts there.

Perry took to Twitter to announce, “my husband just got deported from Japan. I am so. sad. I brought him all this way to show him my favorite place#tokyodreamscrushed.”

She explained his deportation was a result of “priors from over 10 years.”

Brand, who had a drug past and several run-ins with the law, was arrested last September after allegedly attacking a paparazzo at LAX. The comic was later cleared of the charges.

About being detained, Brand tweeted, “Planning escape from Japanese custody. It’s bloody hard to dig a tunnel with a chopstick.”

Perry is in Japan for a number of performances in Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo.
