Source Confirms Open Marriage, Threesomes for Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore

Ashton Kutcher reportedly has a lot more in common with Charlie Sheen than one line on the actors’ resumes.

Weekend Receipts: Lion King Plays Hardball Against Moneyball

The “Circle of Life” remains unturned as The Lion King (in 3D) topped Moneyball to win the weekend receipt war for a second week in a row.

Iron Man 2 Crosses $100 Million Overseas

That’s not a misprint: Despite being another five days away from release here in the states, Paramount opened Iron Man 2 in most foreign countries over the weekend and scored an estimated $100.2 million.
