1. Ohhhhh baby
Apparently the “Today” show is doing better in ratings and ad sales since Katie Couric left. It helps that Matt Lauer’s been wearing mini-skirts to keep up the sex appeal.
2. Think about it
Apple is looking to sell full-length movies on iTunes, but there are some hurdles to get past first. Like, do we really want to give people the power to show “White Chicks” at any time?
3. Ah, stereotypes
Ever since he started living in France, Johnny Depp tells Newsweek his reputation as a “wannabe Frenchman” has been exaggerated. He will admit, however, to not shaving his armpits.
4. Still going?
OK, my World Cup fever has officially mutated into World Cup typhoid.
5. Apply now
Angelina Jolie says she and Brad Pitt are planning to adopt their next child. Time to spruce up the old resume.
6. Needy and greedy
Of course there are millions of children more deserving of adoption than I am, but if Brad and Angie could find it in their hearts … I could really use the extra frequent flier miles.
7. What’s next?
So this is what the future holds. I think I’ll stay inside.
8. Numbers game
By now you’ve probably heard that Bill Gates will be scaling back his duties at Microsoft. Basically this means the company needs someone else to count his money.
9. Sneak preview
The third season of “Project Runway” kicks off July 12. I almost feel like I should watch it just to see what fashions I’ll be wearing 10 years after they go out of style.
