1. Sequel!
Not a knockout opening weekend for “Snakes on a Plane,” but Hollywood insiders are assuring me that “Snakes on the Space Shuttle Discovery” is still a go.
2. ‘SoaP’ is the new ‘Brokeback’
John Legend has titled his second album “Once Again.” It’s not quite “Snakes on my Second Album,” but–OK, that was the last one. I swear.
3. As seen on TV
The actor who plays Michael on “Lost” just bought a new home in West Hollywood. The neighbors are a little concerned that he keeps shaking a torch at them and warning them about The Others.
4. Choke job
Here’s to the happiest Teen Choice Awards ever.
5. Family fun
You have to enjoy an awards show that pairs Snoop Dogg and Ashley Olsen (the name as published has been corrected in this text) as presenters. I actually lost a bet when Snoop didn’t try to pick her up and smoke her.
6. Sorry
Tough night for Tom Cruise. He didn’t win Choice Actor or Choice Action Movie for “Mission: Impossible III,” and his daughter, Suri, just missed out on Choice Non-existent Baby.
7. Paper Tiger
Tiger Woods was in town this weekend. Forget the U.S. Open–the real athletic event for him is carrying his wallet.
8. Sense of security
There’s one part of the Air & Water Show that truly captures what it means to fly: incredibly long lines.
9. We’re preoccupied
Ashton Kutcher says he and Demi Moore have never fought. Of course, they’ve spent most of their marriage trying to figure out what religion they’re practicing.
