Ocean's 13


How hilarious are those Ocean's 13 boys? They have been doing a bunch of interviews promoting the movie which is just fine with me. They are all such good friends and love to joke around with each other. Check out what George Clooney and Matt Damon had to say about Brad Pitt (anyone else notice the use of the word 'wife'?).
Damon: "Brad has had it tough. He's ..."
Clooney: "Hobbled with children ..."
Damon: "And that wife ..."
Clooney: "That horrible, ugly wife."
Damon: "I mean, to go home to her every day ..."
Clooney: "What do you do?"
Damon: "Well, you have your work. That's about it. You can take refuge there."


In other Ocean's 13 hottie news, at the amfAR's Cinema Against AIDS Benefit in Cannes last night, George auctioned off a kiss to benefit the cause! I'm dying to know how much the winning woman bid, how lucky is she!?

UPDATE: The kiss went for $350,000! $350,000!!!! The woman's boyfriend put the money up for it! What a guy!! Wow. $350,000. OK, I'll stop. You can see the video here.

Matt Damon In Awe of Angelina Jolie


Matt Damon and Angelina Jolie stared together in "The Good Shepard", a movie about the birth of the CIA, and Matt cannot speak highly enough of Angelina and her acting skills. He also talks about the constant presence of the paparazzi where ever Angelina went during the filming of the movie.
"There was just that whole thing that would occur when she would come to work, which was, you know, suddenly 50 photographers would be standing where we were shooting and there were swarms of people around and all this interest,'' co-star Matt Damon said. "But as much craziness as surrounds her and surrounds Brad (Pitt) and their life, she was there to absolutely focus on work. "If you'd walked in and asked: 'Which one of these people is surrounded by photographers everywhere they go?' you would never point to her - except for the fact she's so beautiful.'' Damon, the star of the movie franchise spun off from Robert Ludlum's Bourne series of novels, and an Academy Award-winning writer for Good Will Hunting is obviously in awe of Jolie's ability to shake off the constant attention directed at her and concentrate on her day job - acting. "Once we'd get inside the armoury and it was quiet and we were just doing our work, I realised why she's Angelina Jolie,'' Damon said. "It's like there's this whole celebrity side of her, this whole kind of image that other people have created, and then there's who she really is. And first and foremost she's an incredible actor."
As we as we mentioned yesterday Brad Pitt has been having a difficult time with the paparazzi this week, and Angelina has totally been out of the public eye since her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died last weekend. On one hand I think that these actors who court the media in the early days of their career and then resent them when they make it big, don't really have a leg to stand on, but where do we draw the line? Shouldn't Angelina Jolie be able to make funeral arrangements and whatever else she needs to do, without being hounded by photographers? It's a difficult question and one there is no answer to, especially when secretly we all really want to know what's going on in their private lives.
