SHOCK: WRITTERS STRIKE NEARLY OVER!!!

Report: A Strike-ending Deal Is "Already Done"

Will the strike negotiators be home for Christmas? A "very reliable source" tells Nikki Finke's Deadline Hollywood Daily blog that there appears to be a deal in place between both sides. "It's already done, basically," says the insider, crediting weeks' worth of back channel note-sharing conducted by Hollywood agents. "I was told not to expect an agreement this week," says Finke, "but my source thought it was possible that the strike could be settled before Christmas."In other words, maybe, just maybe, TV viewers won't be handed a big lump of coal as this holiday season — at which time the fresh scripted offerings will really start to dry up — rolls around. "I don't want to raise false hope," Finke adds. "But this source has been very accurate in the past." SOURCE

Zac Efron & Angelina Jolie EW Entertainers of the year

Zac Efron
Zac Efron was named one of the 25 Top Stars of 2007 for Entertainment Weekly’s “Entertainers of the Year.” Check out a few of the Q&As:
If he could put a face to that career: ‘’Leonardo DiCaprio is someone whose career path I would love to emulate. The problem is there’s not enough scripts about giant boats sinking that are immersed in a love story. I can’t find that script. I’m thinking about writing Titanic 2. It would pick up right after where the last one left off.'’
Top items on his wish-fulfillment list are: ‘’Lately I love my iPhone. I’ve also got a new car that I’m really excited about: an Audi S6. I don’t think anyone in my family tree has ever earned a car this nice. I find myself driving for no reason at all these days.'’

Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie was named one of the 25 Top Stars of 2007 for Entertainment Weekly’s “Entertainers of the Year.” Check out a sample of what they had to say:
“Angelina Jolie is currently fulfilling fanboy fantasies in Beowulf with her role as Grendel’s mom. Grendel’s naked mom. In digital 3-D, no less. But energizing her base is hardly the 32-year-old actress’ only accomplishment this year. In A Mighty Heart, Jolie strapped on a prosthetic pregnancy belly, donned a curly wig, and delivered the sort of heart-wrenching turn that reminded audiences why she won that Academy Award (for 1999’s Girl, Interrupted) in the first place. In other words, she acted.”

SUPERMAN MARRIES

The Man of Steel is officially off the market! 'Superman Returns' star BRANDON ROUTH married longtime girlfriend, actress COURTNEY FORD, on Saturday at JON and MINDY PETERS' 3000-acre El Capitan Ranch, just outside of Santa Barbara, CA.
It was a very exclusive, intimate wedding. The 150 guests were made up of friends and family, as well as KATE BOSWORTH, Warner Bros. President and COO ALAN F. HORN and director BRYAN SINGER.
The groom was escorted down the aisle by his parents. The bride glowed in a white VERA WANG gown with silver trim. She was preceded down the aisle by three bridesmaids dressed in rose-red strapless gowns.
The couple wrote their own vows, which they recited, overlooking the ocean. Thousands of red roses decorated the outdoor ceremony, whose theme was country chic.
"The Insider"'s CHERYL WOODCOCK spoke to Mindy Peters, who revealed that she and Jon did about a $1 million ranch overhaul for Brandon's big day, including adding a man-made lake, rock walls and waterfalls, as well as fountains that will shoot water on cue when Routh gets the word, "You may now kiss the bride." There were also fireworks to mark the union.
California Governor ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER closed the airspace above the ranch to ensure the couple their privacy for the occasion.
A large white tent was erected for the reception, which continued the country chic theme with silk brown tablecloths, candles and roses on each table. Even the six-tier vanilla cake had red roses on the top.
Routh and Ford became engaged in August, 2006, and have been dating for more than four years. They were high-school sweethearts, who reconnected while Routh was bartending at the rehearsal dinner for Ford's brother's wedding.
