Linda Evangelista Wants How Much in Child Support?!?

The long-held secret is out in the open: Francois-Henri Pinault is the father of Linda Evangelista’s four-year old son. Now, the super model wants the billionaire – who is married to Salma Hayek and also a father to her toddler – to pay. Literally. Exorbitantly. Evangelista appeared in Manhattan Family Court yesterday and asked for $46,000 per month in child support, a number that would be the “largest support order in the history of the Family Court,” said the man who will decide whether or not she gets it, Support Magistrate Matthew Troy.

She replied: “On days when I do not work, I am working on my image. I have to hit the gym. I have beauty appointments. I have to work toward my next job and maintaining my image, just like an athlete.” Linda Evangelista asking for $46,000 per month in child support is…

Matt Damon Defends Teachers, Tenure, Lashes Out at Reporter

Matt Damon is a passionate actor, both on and off screen. At the Save Our Schools march in DC last weekend, the Oscar nominee was asked if fear over losing his job inspired him to be better at that job – an indirect way of criticizing the tenure system – and replied: “You think job insecurity is what makes me work hard? It’s not an incentive, I want to be an actor.” Watch his go off on the reporter and use many big words in this video: Matt Damon Defends Teachers

Marvel Boss Kevin Feige on The Avengers Version of Hulk: ‘Hulk is Hulk’

When the concept art (the buzziest of promotional buzzwords this summer; see also new concept art for Snow White & The Huntsman and Lucifer ) of Mark Ruffalo as Hulk in The Avengers was released at the end of Comic-Con last weekend, it was easy to joke that it looked like every other incarnation of Hulk. In a new interview with the Los Angeles Times , Marvel boss Kevin Feige confirms that similarity is by design… except when it’s not. Hulk confused?

Joel McHale on Community’s Upcoming Apollo 13 Episode and the ‘Murderous’ Betty White

Community earned a lot of buzz in its first season on the air, but there’s still a lot of people who have yet to discover it, and Joel McHale met almost all of those people on the red carpet for the Chopard pre-Emmy bash in Los Angeles last weekend (among the odd questions he had to field: “Growing up, did you prefer the Backstreet Boys or N Sync?”). Needless to say, he was happy to actually talk about the show to Movieline, and dished on the cast’s recent Comic-Con sojourn, guest star Betty White, and his favorite unaired pilot.
