Christian Bale may be back on our radar big time with the astounding success of The Dark Knight, but, in the second major tragedy of the day, the hottie British actor is way, way off the market.

He’s been married for over eight years to Sandra Blazic, who was once Winona Ryder’s personal assistant. And to make the homewrecking even more difficult, they have an adorable three-year-old daughter, Emmeline, who Christian was carrying around at LAX on Saturday.

Dude, that little girl has an actress’s eyes. I’m calling it right now. She’ll be on the big screen in no time at all.

Once again, Alisan’s MySpace page is here.

SAD FACE!

You know, most of the time, it’s just all light-hearted fun and gossip around these parts. We don’t take ourselves or any one story too seriously, and one day blends into the next.

But every once in awhile there’s a story that grabs you in the pit of your stomach, pulls at your heartstrings, and makes you almost nauseous with the genuine tragedy of it all. These days stay with us.

Today is one of those days.

The Verne Troyer sex tape will not be released. The parties have reached a settlement in the lawsuit Verne brought against potential distributors.

Records show that Blatt and SugarDVD have signed agreements requiring that they get Troyer’s approval before selling or distributing the tape or any images from it.

Edwin McPherson, one of Troyer’s attorneys, said the actor has no intention of granting approval.

Dude, I know this is a Hail Mary, but we can we just all pray that Verne gets so low on cash he has to agree to let this thing be distributed? Please? Please???

(And, no, I will never get tired of running this photo. In fact, even when this story is good and dead and no one remembers Ranae Shrider’s name, I will still, on occasion, run this photograph, because it is just that awesome.)

Holy freakin’ hell, the Batman sequel brought in $66.4M on Friday, its opening day.

This film is on track to make damn close to $200M in the U.S. this weekend.

Talk about kicking some Aquaman ass!

Did you guys see it?

What’s the verdict?

Oh. Hells. Yes.

Shannen Doherty and her off-center eyes (seriously has anyone else noticed that one is a half-inch higher on her face than the other?) will be returning as Brenda Walsh in 90210v2.0. The show’s executive producer confirmed the news on Saturday.

Brenda will be a visiting drama teacher who directs a musical at West Beverly High School.

I can’t wait to hear about all the off-camera drama between Shannen and Jennie Garth!!! Those two HATE each other!!!

“I love Samantha. She’s like a child to me. They’re great friends and as long as my daughter is happy and healthy, it is what it is.”

Dina Lohan, on Samantha Ronson’s relationship with Lindsay. This sounds about as close to a “yup, they’re dating” admission as we’re gonna get.
