Billy Bob Thornton is looking sooooo good these days.

I call this look “AIDS-patient chic.”

I can’t decide which is classier: the single pants-suit leg tucked into the cowboy boot, or the cigarette on the red carpet.

Here’s BBT at a Sundance event.

They shop at IKEA!

Abbie Cornish and Ryan Phillippe did some low-cost shopping for their gazillion-dollar Bev Hills home on Monday at the famous Swedish home store. Among the items purchased: a $99 standing mirror.

At least we know they can’t mount that on their ceiling.

What’s the Deal with Mall Cops?

Okay, so, first off, Paul Blart: Mall Cop, lands the top place at the box office. This may or may not have been a result of legions of thirteen-year-olds buying Paul Blart tix so they could sneak into the R-rated Notorious, but Fox cable doesn’t seem to care. They are all about underestimating the intelligence of our nation, and they’ve green-lit a new series about — what else? — a mall cop.

The show is called Walorsky, and it “follows the exploits of an ex-cop who now patrols a shopping mall in Buffalo, N.Y. He’s forced to start caring about his job — and not just Buffalo sports — when he’s partnered with a rookie.” Variety points out that Fox picked up the show before the success of Blart this weekend, but still. Mall cops are totally the new shoe salesmen.
