Downey back in action
Shortly after a Corcoran, California prison released actor Robert
Downey Jr., who served time for drug and weapons charges and
violating his probation, the Oscar-nominated
actor nabbed an eight-week stint on David E. Kelley's hit Fox show Ally
McBeal. Apparently there are directors lining up to sign the
talented Downey and everyone's glad to have him back in commission.
Heche dazed and confused
Actress Anne Heche, who recently split up with live-in love Ellen
Degeneres, was brought by Sheriff's deputies to the University
Medical Center in Fresno, California, after she showed up shaken and
disoriented at a house not far from rural Fresno. Heche knocked on
the front door and began speaking incoherently to the occupants. She
had parked her car on a highway and then walked about a mile to
the house.
Madonna gives birth
Pop superstar Madonna, who
recently turned 42, gave birth to
a baby boy, Rocco Ritchie. She and her significant other, British
film director Guy Ritchie, are said to be overjoyed. Madonna also
has a daughter, Lourdes.
Critics slam Jerry Hall
The critics have not been kind in their reviews of the ex-Mrs. Mick
Jagger, Jerry Hall, who is onstage as Mrs. Robinson in a London
production of The Graduate. The former Texan supermodel was
described as "wooden as a toothpick" by The Daily Mail and
The Times wrote "Enter Jerry Hall, barely acting." |
