1. Cutting back
In a speech Tuesday in Chicago, Barack Obama said he wants the world to phase out nuclear bombs. Fortunately, “Good Luck Chuck” seems headed out of theaters quickly.
2. Rock on
Sotheby’s will auction off an 84-carat diamond next month in Switzerland. How it escaped from Jennifer Lopez’s engagement ring collection is anyone’s guess.
3. Step 2
Former “Who’s the Boss?” star Alyssa Milano told Details magazine she’s done with dating athletes. She’s moving on to Notre Dame football players.
4. High and tight
Jude Law: Doing for the fedora what “The Fast and the Furious” did for traffic safety awareness.
5. Match point
Kudos to the readers who e-mailed in “Salomonela” as a nickname for Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon. Way, way better than “Siliconifer.”
6. Head-scratcher
By contrast, the outlook is not so good for Cameron Diaz and Bradley Cooper. CamRad? Dooper?
7. Hell yeah
“Pearl Harbor” and “Transformers” director Michael Bay is attached to a remake of “Friday the 13th.” So expect more blood, more explosions, more one-syllable words in the script …
8. Growing pains
Sign No. 487 you’re getting old: The girl who played “Punky Brewster” is expecting her second child.
9. So happy together
Rumor has it Hulk Hogan will host the new version of “American Gladiators,” according to TV Week. And by “rumor” I assume TV Week means “birthright and destiny.”
