Paris Hilton does want anyone in Slovenia spending 1 Night in Paris . The former A-lister has taken legal action in order to shut down ParisHiltonPornVideos(dot)com, a Slovenian website that features clips of her sex tape with 2004 boyfriend Rick Salomon. According to TMZ sources, Hilton is looking to have the domain name transferred to her and to ensure that no one makes money off her videotaped bedroom actions except her and Salomon. She has filed documents with the World Intellectual Property Organization Arbitration and Mediation Center in order to plead her case. NOTE: Paris Hilton is a celebrity who was once really famous. She was Kim Kardashian before Kim Kardashian was Kim Kardashian and now she works sometimes as a DJ.

The odds were very much in the favor of Catching Fire this weekend, as the well-reviewed Hunger Games sequel earned $161.1 million over the pre-Thanksgiving weekend. That’s a November box office record. The Jennifer Lawrence -anchored blockbuster beat the $152.5 million opening of its predecessor and out-earned the previous November champion, The Twilight Saga: New Moon, by about $20 million.

They are:The Avengers ($207.4 million), Iron Man 3 ($174.1 million) and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 ($169.2 million). If current estimates hold, Catching Fire will bring down The Dark Knight Rises as the largest 2-D opening of all-time. And it deserves it, folks. What a terrific movie. Here’s a look at the weekend’s Top 5 money makers: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire – $161.1 million Thor: The Dark World – $14.1 million The Best Man Holiday – $12.5 million Delivery Man – $8.2 million Free Birds – $5.3 million

Skyfall packed some punch at the British box office, becoming the biggest U.K. weekend for any James Bond film. The film is the 23rd putting for 007 and the debonaire spy displayed his ticket selling prowess, taking in £20.1 million ($32.36 million) after opening Friday at 587 theaters in the U.K. and Ireland. “We are absolutely overwhelmed with the reaction to Skyfall this weekend,” producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli said in a statement. “It is particularly thrilling as the UK is home to James Bond and it being the 50th anniversary year.” Still, Bond did not quite match the magic of fellow Brit Harry Potter. The final installment of the boy wizard’s saga, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 charmed audiences to the tune of £23 million ($36.865 million) in its first weekend. James Bond is the longest-running film franchise ever. The film was also number one in 24 other overseas markets and is due to open the U.S. November 9th. Starring Daniel Craig, Dame Judi Dench and Javier Bardem, Skyfall marked Sam Mendes’ James Bond debut. It is also Craig’s third turn as 007, following box office successes for Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace He will do at least two more 007 features. THR (http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/hugo-scribe-john-logan-james-bond-383477) reported last week that one of Skyfall ‘s co-writers, John Logan, has begun to tackle the script for a two-part original Bond story, not based on the series’ original author, Iam Fleming.

Beyonce came, saw and conquered the 12th annual BET Awards. She “only” one won award, but by flashing that big smile every time cameras cut to her (approximately every 10 seconds), she was the star of the evening. Her man, Jay-Z, took home a pair of awards (Best Group and Best Video), so it was a successful night for the parents of Blue Ivy Carter all around. With Samuel L. Jackson handling hosting, and stars such as Bey, Jay, Chris Brown Kanye West and Nicki Minaj on hand, there was mega-star wattage. Minaj’s performance and the lack of censorship are sure to cause some people headaches today, while lighter and heavier moments were abundant. Jokes were made about Lauryn Hill’s tax problems and Kanye’s cutting off Taylor Swift at the MTV VMAs. His GF Kim Kardashian was present as well. Finally, a moving Whitney Houston tribute by Mariah Carey, Monica, Brandy and the late star’s mom Cissy Houston left nary a dry eye in the venue. Follow the jump for the full list of winners at the BET Awards: Best Female R&B Artist: Beyonc
On this week’s Keeping Up with the Kardashians, tensions boiled over between Scott and … well, everybody, while Kris received an unwelcome surprise. Last week, we saw the beginnings of a Scott Disick and Bruce Jenner feud. Last night was certainly no different, as the former grew increasingly bitter. Also, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian wore bikinis a lot. Come along for THG’s +/- Keeping Up rekap! Scott and Rob bust into Kendall and Kylie Jenner’s suite with Rob Kardashian to scare them in the middle of the night. Pretty funny. Plus 10 . Meanwhile, Kris Jenner’s lip is so swollen from an allergic reaction that she looks like a Heidi Montag plastic surgery victim. Ouch. Minus 20 . “It’s God punishing you for giving Todd your email,” Bruce says. OWNED! Plus 90 . Bruce and Scott have more in common than they think, though. While Bruce was making passive-aggressive digs like that, Scott was … okay, there’s nothing passive about plain refusing to get out of bed because you’re pissed. Minus 10 . Hangover, schmangover, he’s just sick of them all. Minus 5 . When he finally emerges, Disick immediately is criticized by the fam. “This is exactly why I didn’t want to get out of bed. I have all these people nagging me at all times. I feel like I’m going to lose my mind.” Dude, we feel ya. Plus 10 . Scott has had enough and he packs a bag and leaves! Or at least pretends to, as the producers are often compelled to make him. Minus 15 . Bruce decides he will step up and try to help, while burying the hatchet with Scott: “I just want to be able to say something to kind of help him out and [teach Scott] how to deal with people. Life’s too short,” Jenner says. Plus 5 . “Yeah, and life’s too short for you to sit around wondering if I saw my ex-boyfriend again or not,” Kris interjects. Touche, Bruce . Touche. Plus 10 . Then the light bulb goes on. Bruce apologizes and plants a make-up kiss on his better half, gigantic upper lip and all. Plus 10 for those two. Scott shockingly reveals that … he wants to marry Kourtney and he refuses? And he’s scared every single day that she’ll leave him? Minus 15 . Plus 5 for Mason’s little beach outfit, incidentally. And Plus 5 more for Kim Kardashian ‘s bikini. And Plus 10 more for Kourtney’s, even though she’s very pregnant and some viewers were probably grossed out. She’s always beautiful. Disick rallies and comes to the family dinner in the end. Plus 15 . Now it’s time for Kourt to step up and and reassure the guy, which she does. Not that all is well, necessarily, after that. “The whole reason I had another kid with you is because you agreed to get married if we had another,” he reveals. “You broke the contract, you broke the deal, I’m not going to keep trying with you forever.” Whoa. Minus 15 . She does buy Scott a commitment bracelet, at least? Eh, Minus 40 . “The fact that she [Kourtney] told me in front of her whole family how much she loves me makes me feel good,” Scott says later. “And it’s a very cute idea.” “This love bracelet … it obviously doesn’t go with my gold accessories, but if it did I’d always wear it.” Brings a tear to your eye. Plus 10 . EPISODE TOTAL: +60. SEASON TOTAL: -330 .
